204: Battle of Twin Peaks

In the crowd of onlookers, two familiar figures mingled.

"Island Master, rest assured. Since Big Brother has come out of seclusion, even if Shen Lian had three heads and six arms, he would ultimately die under Big Brother's palm."

"Sigh, it is I who implicated several Senior Brothers. Had I known, I should not have done that."

Xu Feifei's eyes were red, her gaze fixed directly on Feng Yutao at the Peak of the left Twin Peaks.

Tang Jue comforted her in a gentle voice: "Island Master, this is not your fault. A Devil Head like Shen Lian deserves to be executed by everyone. I believe Second Brother and the others will not blame you in the slightest."

Of the former Seven Sages of the Immortal Island, four had been wiped out by Shen Lian in one go; their influence was no longer what it once was.

Xu Feifei felt very displeased in her heart; had she known, she should not have approached Shen Lian so directly back then.

However, regret was useless now. Only by truly killing Shen Lian could her position as the Island Master of Penglai Immortal Island remain secure.

On the ten-thousand-foot mountain, Feng Yutao stood with his eyes closed, facing the wind, quietly waiting for the moment of the decisive battle to arrive.

The sun was directly overhead, and the time for the scheduled battle was drawing ever closer.

Within a radius of over ten miles, it was already crowded with Cultivators who had come upon hearing the news, all gathered to witness this most extreme conflict.

"The leader of the Seven Sages of the Immortal Island challenging the madman Shen Lian—this is truly the rarest grand event on the Primordial Continent in the last hundred years. To have the fortune of witnessing it, this life has truly not been in vain."

"Feng Yutao's cultivation had already entered the Limit-Breaking Realm a hundred years ago; he is the strongest shield of Penglai Immortal Island since Gong Jiuyuan. It is rumored that his palm strength is difficult even for those at the Peak of the Limit-Breaking Realm to parry. I really don't know where Shen Lian gets the nerve to dare to fight him."

"Shen Lian is not weak either. For the past few months, everything has been about him, especially the battle at Tianji Mountain in the Northern Region, where he single-handedly leveled the Alliance Leaders Mansion, destroying tens of thousands of Xuan Sect Disciples under his palm. His strength certainly cannot be underestimated."

"It's useless. In the Northern Region battle, the Cultivators Shen Lian faced were all of low cultivation. Against a true expert, he has absolutely zero chance of winning. If he were given another hundred years, perhaps he would have the qualifications to challenge Feng Yutao, but now, if he dares to come to the appointment, it is a certain death sentence."

The Cultivators discussed animatedly, full of excitement regarding the duel between Shen Lian and Feng Yutao.

However, regarding the outcome, everyone unanimously believed that Shen Lian's chance of winning was almost zero.

Just as the Cultivators were discussing, Yan Xingge, who should have been heading to the Sacred Domain, had somehow mingled into the crowd.

"It's rare to come out and find some excitement; I really don't want to miss it. Listening to these nobodies talk about Shen Lian or whatever, it looks quite interesting. Hmm, let me watch for a bit first."

After saying this, he conjured a recliner and took out a handful of peanuts from somewhere, then lay down brazenly to start watching the battle.

On the Twin Peaks, Feng Yutao raised his eyes to look at the sky.

The time for the decisive battle had arrived, but Shen Lian still had not appeared, which caused him to frown slightly.

"Could it be that I misjudged him? That Shen Lian is just a coward who clings to life and fears death!"

Just as this thought formed in his mind for an instant...

A surge of Yin and Yang Qi sped from the end of the horizon, rushing directly towards the right side of the Twin Peaks.

"Hahaha!"

The wild laughter arose, causing a wave of Qi to ripple across dozens of miles.

Boom—

The moment the figure landed on the mountain Peak, explosions erupted continuously.

"You have finally come."

Seeing his opponent appear, Feng Yutao's eyes narrowed, and he couldn't help but clench his palms.

Immediately, the Aura Pressure of the Limit-Breaking Realm swept out, attacking directly across the air towards the spot where Shen Lian stood three hundred feet away.

"If I didn't come, how would I let the world witness the decline of the Immortal Island!"

With a block of his Folding Fan, the oppressive Aura Pressure instantly dissipated, and Shen Lian's arrogant figure emerged.

"Enough arrogance!"

Feng Yutao praised.

"I didn't expect that in just ten short days, your cultivation would break through again, and you are now at the fifth level of the Immortal Realm."

Shen Lian lightly waved his Folding Fan: "If this makes you feel surprised, then the next surprise will make you surprised to the point of madness."

"Heh."

Feng Yutao sneered.

"Then I shall wait and see. If your strength is only this much, then today you will have absolutely no path to survival."

"Hahaha—"

Responding to Feng Yutao was Shen Lian's even more wild laughter.

"If you want to probe Shen Lian's limit, then prepare yourself for a life-for-a-life exchange."

"Heh, Shen Lian, today, let all the grievances between you and my Penglai Immortal Island be settled in this battle!"

"Only if I am defeated and die in this battle will it be wiped clean. But if you are defeated, I will definitely take the life of that bitch Xu Feifei!"

"Arrogant!"

Feng Yutao slightly raised his left hand.

"Today, let me make you understand what a true gap is!"

As soon as his voice fell, he struck out with a palm.

Vast Dao Rhyme flew through the Void, gradually solidifying to form a giant palm print, vowing to swallow the opponent whole.

"A gap? Before the extreme, the so-called gap is nothing but the most ridiculous excuse!"

Shen Lian stomped his foot, and a Gang Qi seal appeared beneath his feet.

Immediately, clouds surged, and the heaven and earth root inside his body accelerated its operation.

"Go."

At the same time he struck out with a palm with a boom, Shen Lian's figure turned into light, flying rapidly towards the mountain Peak where his opponent was located.

Boom—

The two palm forces collided and exploded in the Void, immediately causing the area for dozens of miles to shake unceasingly.

Even though both sides only struck a casual palm, the intense pressure already shook everyone present to the point that they dared not even breathe.

"Take this!"

Shen Lian took the initiative, his body transforming into Yin and Yang Qi, sweeping towards Feng Yutao from both the left and right.

Faced with such a clever move and change in momentum, Feng Yutao did not move his feet a single step, his expression confident and firm.

"Shocking Palm: Transforming Extreme Pagoda Hand."

He struck out with a palm lightly, turning into two strands of Gang Qi, which directly dispersed the Yin and Yang Qi on the left and right.

Then his figure turned, and he raised his hand and struck out with another palm.

"Shocking Palm: Void-Breaking Formless."

Bang—

With a roaring sound of clashing palms, Shen Lian, who was in extreme speed, was directly blasted back more than ten steps. Relying on the force of releasing the energy, he struck the mountain wall behind him with his bare hand, only then barely stabilizing his figure.

"Wanting to rely on a feint to attack the east while striking the west to take the initiative and weaken the power of my palm?"

Feng Yutao curled his lips at Shen Lian.

"I have to say your tactics are very clever, but you overlooked an important point: the gap where the cultivation Foundation is not on the same line cannot be made up for by these small tricks. Seeing through your plan was just as expected."

"Is that so? Then today I will let you understand how lowly it is to die in ignorance."

With a cold snort, Shen Lian stomped his foot, immediately leaving a shocking crack on the stone wall behind him, and launched an offensive against Feng Yutao again.

"Void Concealment: Heaven and Earth Overturned!"

A palm approached, striking directly at the opponent's vital point.

However, Feng Yutao slightly raised one hand.

"Shocking Palm: Transforming Extreme Pagoda Hand."

The palms met again, and Shen Lian only felt the Qi and blood in his body churning, and he was blasted back more than ten steps again.

As his feet stepped on the mountain wall, a huge explosion was heard.

The ten-zhang-thick mountain wall behind him instantly collapsed.

"Shen Lian, pay with your life for my Junior Brother, and fulfill your calamity!"

Determining that the gap between the opponent's cultivation Foundation and his own was huge, Feng Yutao decisively drove all his Spiritual Qi, converting it into Dao Rhyme in an instant, and directly unleashed his killing move.

"Shocking Palm: Blazing Sun True Flame!"

A fire cloud palm print, carrying an Aura that could destroy mountains and split rocks, swept towards Shen Lian's entire body.

Boom—

After the palm strike, smoke and ash completely covered the Twin Peaks.

Even though there were those in the crowd with cultivation at the Primordial Chaos Realm, they could not clearly see the scene on the Twin Peaks at this moment.

After a long time, when the smoke and ash dissipated, Feng Yutao's figure was still standing proudly.

But his expression was not as calm as before.

Because standing in front of him was still Shen Lian's peerless figure.
