One Punch shocks the whole venue!
(Soliciting monthly votes)_3 Chen Dengming muttered to himself, but soon heard Xing Huiguang start to announce the rules and procedures for the Longevity Seed strength competition.
Chen Dengming was already familiar with these rules and procedures.
Firstly, the level of cultivation in their respective techniques would be compared to each other to determine their level of cultivation.
...
Then, the five of them will almost have to battle each other, unless their opponent voluntarily gives up.
The battles will emphasize ending the fight as soon as a clear advantage is determined.
When it comes to the level of Cultivation Technique, Chen Dengming has no advantage, and even could be considered at the bottom.
After all, he hasn’t advanced to False Core level for many years, and accumulatively, he isn’t comparable to the other candidates.
However, fortunately, the ranking of cultivation level only accounts for 30 percent of the total score.
The main part depends on the actual spar.
Soon after announcing the rules, Xing Huiguang directly calls out the names of the participants for the first match according to the drawn list.
“Chen Dengming!”
“Huyan Shunbin!”
Huyan Shunbin, who was sitting on a Taishi Chair, flashed a cold light in his eyes.
After exchanging a glance with Hua Zhenyu, he looked away.
Although he was cold, arrogant, and had high self-esteem, he also knew that he was no match to Chen Baimao, who could cut Golden Cores.
If there is no special situation, he plans to surrender after a few rounds of spar.
After all, it was obvious that he wouldn’t be the one to obtain the Longevity Seed at this point.
This is now merely a formality.
But since he’d received benefits from Hua Zhenyu, he had to abide by the agreement and try to drain as much of Chen Dengming’s power as possible, and even better if he could injure him.
“If Brother Chen underestimates me, I might have a chance…”
Huyan Shunbin stood up and walked towards the battlefield.
“Brother.”
He Yingyu’s clear eyes landed on Chen Dengming, showing a sense of motivation.
Chen Dengming nodded slightly, put down his teacup, and calmly walked out.
The battlefield was about five hundred feet in radius and was now enveloped by the Mountain Protection Array of Evergreen Peak.
Once this Mountain Protection Array was activated, even a group of Golden Core Great Cultivators would struggle to break it in a short period, so it punctually served as the safety shield for the battlefield.
…
“I will be the referee for this fight.
You may begin.”
Guan Chao soared into the sky above the battlefield and looked down at the two below him as he announced.
“Brother Chen, please show some mercy!”
In the battlefield, Huyan Shunbin and Chen Dengming stood opposite each other, each raising a hand in salute.
As Chen Dengming was also raising his hand and about to reply with a pleasantry.
Huyan Shunbin’s Spiritual Might exploded, his Dan Power condensed.
With a shout, he started the combat as if igniting a thunder on a plain land, the shockwaves forming a terrifying ripple of solid sound, which merged into his Divine Sense.
He launched an instantaneous attack towards Chen Dengming, as if he wanted to shatter his eardrums and brain.
Chen Dengming only felt a rumbling in his ears, and a faint ringing in his brain, a sheer sense of sharpness came with the sound wave, like a terrifying surge.
This sudden ambush, despite being underhanded, was strong enough to catch him off guard.
However, the Dao Force stirred in Chen Dengming’s Divine Sense, and his state of mind was even more stable and powerful.
In just a moment, he woke up, his eyes lit up suddenly, his Divine Sense mobilized the Saint’s Heart Mantra and the Refining Spirit Skill, condensing into two icy vortexes.
Like two spiritual abysses, they swallowed the Divine Sense that hit him instantly.
The sound wave that surged toward him shook his Armor Wood Robe, causing ripples on the protective shield.
“Huh?”
Huyan Shunbin felt as if the Divine Sense he launched was like clay oxen disappearing into the sea, it quickly depleted and vanished.
This gave him a sense of palpitations and weakness.
He instantly wanted to retract his Divine Sense.
However, at this moment, Chen Dengming’s eyes were as bright as lamps, his hair danced in the air like flames, the vortex in his gaze emitted a stronger sucking force.
Now, Huyan Shunbin couldn’t even retract his Divine Sense and could only withstand the force.
For a moment, an eerie scene occurred.
The two seemed like still statues in the battlefield, their clothes motionless, like two stone statues.
However, their eyes, sharp as divine weapons, revealing fierce light, clashed in the void.
At the clash between two massive forces, a surge of fierce energy filled the field instantly.
Using the Saint’s Heart mantra in combination with the Mo Skill to devour Huyan Shunbin’s divine consciousness, Chen Dengming stood as solitary as a towering peak, hands behind his back, and spoke indifferently, “Brother Huyan, your first move is so aggressive, so don’t complain that I’m ruthless.”
Huyan Shunbin was taken aback.
Chen Dengming was able to converse so leisurely under the pressure of their Divine Consciousness clash, proving that his Divine Consciousness Power had far surpassed him.
He felt like he had displayed his slight skill in front of an expert.
If the confrontation continued like this, his Spirit would be exhausted.
Even if he didn’t perish right there, he would undoubtedly suffer heavily.
“Ah!!——”
He gave a long howl, hardened his heart and bravely severed his own divine consciousness.
A wave of intense pain attacked his heart and mind, making his head feel as if it were struck by a heavy hammer, almost blanking out.
But at this moment, he bit the tip of his tongue, forcefully maintaining his consciousness, while coercing his Dan Power to its fullest.
It was like a serene deep pond transforming into a tornado, with a magic artifact resembling a giant hammer suddenly enlargening amidst flashes of golden light.

Its awe-inspiring might was as if a mountain was bearing down on him.
“Freeze!”
At this moment, Chen Dengming’s palm stretched out, unleashing the Puppet skill.
His gaze was as sharp as a torch, gleaming with green light, as if attempting to see through the enemy’s heart and lungs.
Immediately, a large amount of wood-element spiritual energy transformed into green light, infiltrating Huyan Shunbin’s body.
His body stiffened slightly.
Before he could react, Chen Dengming strode forward, his Dan Power highly concentrated, suddenly twisting his waist and throwing a punch.
Whoosh!——
The Soul Shocking Silk condensed into a highly compressed, astonishingly bright white light pillar.
It rubbed against the atmosphere at high speed, resulting in a faint red glow, seemingly forming a highly compressed pillar of spiritual energy, directly targeting Huyan Shunbin.
Judging in mid-air, Guan Chao’s heart leapt, his mind was extremely tense, and he prepared to rescue someone at any time.
Huyan Shunbin, as the primary target, detected an intense threat of death and fully erupted his Dan Power to break free from the Puppet Skill.
Bang!
A semi-circular defensive magic artifact suddenly appeared outside his body.
The great hammer radiated searing golden light and smashed out.
With a loud “Clang!”
The air burst open, leaving behind a pile of creamy sound barrier cloud.
A shockwave spread rapidly, and the hammer-shaped magic treasure was blown away.
Almost simultaneously, a “Clang” sound was followed by a burst of sparks.
The protective artifact outside Huyan Shunbin’s body was penetrated by the condensed Soul Shocking Silk, fell to the ground with a ‘clang’, the cut area glowing red as if it had started to melt.
“Bang”——
Huyan Shunbin was blasted away, heavily hitting the ground behind him.
The impact shattered the stone bricks like tofu, leaving a long opening and causing a large dust cloud.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, his robe was completely ruined, everything in front of him turned pitch black, and under the double onslaught on his Spirit and body, he passed out on the spot.
The countless Disciples on the surrounding stands were silent for a moment, followed by an uproar.
Even many False Cores and Executives who were seated on the Taishi Chair stood up, their expressions unable to hide their disbelief.
Things ended too fast.
Although everyone had anticipated that Huyan Shunbin was definitely no match for Chen Dengming.
In many people’s eyes, the two had only exchanged gazes for two breaths of time, and then Huyan Shunbin had summoned his magic treasure.
The result was that Chen Dengming threw one punch, Huyan Shunbin’s magic treasure was blasted away, and the person too, flew out in an instant, spitting out blood and unconscious.
It seemed that it was just one round, and Huyan Shunbin had lost.
This was a Longevity Seed candidate, and Huyan Shunbin was a member of the Main Battle Faction; his combat power was definitely not weak.
But now…
The smile Hua Zhenyu had been maintaining on his face gradually stiffened, and even a chill began to emerge in his heart.
The strength of his competitor far exceeded his imagination…
