Chapter 181 White Mountain Black Soil
When the dozen or so rainbow lights approached the mountain, they scattered and landed on the ground, forming an irregular circle in their corresponding positions.

Zhu Chengwu is right in the center of this irregular circle.

Although the owners of these dozen or so streams of light did not know each other or have not discussed anything with each other beforehand, with their strength at this level, it was easy for them to form a tacit understanding in battle.

When they saw the blue lightning-shaped flame-shaped object floating in front of Zhu Chengwu, and a strong desire to make up for their own shortcomings emerged in their hearts, they knew who the enemy they had to deal with first was.

With just an eye contact, they reached a consensus. They would first deal with Zhu Chengwu, who had a high-level treasure of heaven and earth floating in front of him, and then discuss the ownership of the high-level treasure of heaven and earth.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

After the positions were decided, a young master looked at Zhu Chengwu with a frown.

Talented people emerge in every generation, and each of them leads the trend for decades.

Zhu Chengwu has not shown up for 25 years, so naturally newcomers will appear in the world to share the limelight and popularity that Zhu Chengwu once occupied.

The young master who appeared now was one of them.

The newly promoted Grandmaster Pang Ban is a disciple of Meng Chixing, the Grandmaster who was one of the top three Grandmasters of the Yuan Dynasty.

Master and disciple are both masters!
After Zhu Chengwu, there was another peerless genius who achieved the master level before the age of thirty.

In this era, the discussion and popularity aroused by Pang Ban is not much inferior to that of Zhu Chengwu in the past.

"Ban'er, the man in front of you is no ordinary person. He is the peerless evildoer who became the number one master of the Ming Dynasty more than 20 years ago - Marquis Fu'an Zhu Chengwu!"

Before Zhu Chengwu answered Pang Ban's question, Meng Chixing, who was near Pang Ban, spoke first.

Although they had not seen each other for more than 20 years and the two had only met once in the palace of Nanzhu Kingdom, the moment he saw Zhu Chengwu, Meng Chixing recognized the identity of this unkempt man who stood on the top of the mountain and remained calm in the face of more than a dozen Grandmaster Yangshen.

In the battle of the Nanzhu Kingdom Palace, Zhu Chengwu brought too great a shock to Meng Chixing!

Of course, in addition to Zhu Chengwu, Narcissus also left a very deep impression on Meng Chixing.

"So you are the former Marquis Fu'an of the Ming Dynasty!"

Meng Chixing's words originally intended to persuade Pang Ban to be careful and vigilant, but instead they aroused Pang Ban's will to fight.

As the number one genius of the Yuan Dynasty, Pang Ban was never afraid of fighting. On the contrary, he liked fighting very much.

If the opponent is a strong man or genius of the same level, Pang Ban will be even more ecstatic!

As the greatest genius and greatest master of the previous generation of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Chengwu was obviously one of those people who made Pang Ban ecstatic.

It is said that the Marquis of Fu'an in the Ming Dynasty was extremely powerful. More than 20 years ago, in the battle of the Nanzhu Kingdom Palace, he showed combat power even better than that of his master, Meng Chixing.

Young and full of energy! He looked down on everyone and was eager to prove himself through fighting! This was Pang Ban's current state.

"Meng Chixing and Si Hanfei from the Yuan Dynasty, Baishan and Heitu from the Qing Dynasty, Dong Xie and Xi Du from the Song Dynasty... most of them are familiar faces! These are the only ones left in this world that can pose a threat to me!"

Zhu Chengwu seemed unconcerned when his identity was exposed by Meng Chixing.

The Yang Lei True Flame has been fully nurtured, and there is no need for Zhu Chengwu to hide any traces now.

Moreover, Zhu Chengwu had not fought with anyone for 25 years, and he also wanted to test the strength of these "old friends" and "new friends".

Of course, verifying Zhu Chengwu’s own progress over the past 25 years is also a very important reason.

Twenty-five years!
I stayed in this place where the Yang Lei Zhen Yan was born for a full twenty-five years!
Zhu Chengwu himself didn't know how strong he had become.

But, at least the realm of the supreme master (grand master) has been achieved!
When he just broke through the Grandmaster realm, Zhu Chengwu already had the combat power of a supreme Grandmaster (Grand Master). Now that his realm has reached the supreme Grandmaster (Grand Master), his actual combat ability has increased to such an extent that, to be honest, Zhu Chengwu himself wants to try it!
"Marquis Fu'an, hand over the Yang Lei Zhenyan! You are alone, you can't be a match for so many of us!"

The speaker is Baishan of the Qing Dynasty.

Bai Shan, who had personally experienced the battle of the Nanzhu Kingdom Palace, knew deeply how terrifying Zhu Chengwu was.

In addition, the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty were in an absolutely hostile relationship, and Bai Shan was one of the people at the scene who least wanted to see Zhu Chengwu leave alive with Yang Lei Zhenyan.

However, Baishan alone was no match for Zhu Chengwu, let alone making it impossible for Zhu Chengwu to escape and die here.

Therefore, Bai Shan spoke up and reminded the other Grandmaster Yang Shen present that the high-level treasure of heaven and earth before them was the Yang Lei Zhen Yan.

After the battle of Nanzhu Kingdom, Zhu Chengwu publicly declared in the battle that he needed Yang Lei Zhen Yan, and he would cooperate with whoever had Yang Lei Zhen Yan. For the sake of Yang Lei Zhen Yan, Zhu Chengwu even directly betrayed his original partner Zhu Yuyan and cooperated with Narcissus. As a result, the high-level rare treasure of heaven and earth, Yang Lei Zhen Yan, gained a lot of popularity.

For top figures at the level of Grandmaster Yang Shen, as long as they have interest and patience to investigate, most things in this world cannot be hidden from their eyes.

The characteristics of the Yang Lei Zhen Yan, its possible forms after it is formed... none of these can be hidden from the Grandmaster Yang Shen who has the patience to track it down, such as Bai Shan.

Moreover, because everyone knew that Zhu Chengwu had already digested the Earth Core Fire Lotus, and combined with the fact that Narcissus tried to use the twin high-level treasures of Jade Marrow Ice Soul and Silver Coin Pure Water to impact the Yang God, Zhu Chengwu's desire for the Yang Thunder True Flame was almost obvious.

To stop Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus!

Bai Shan and other interested masters Yang Shen secretly spent a lot of time and means to find the whereabouts of Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus, but they never found anything.

Twenty-five years later, Baishan had already felt that there was no hope.

When Narcissus was in Nanzhu Kingdom, he had already obtained the Snow Crystal Spirit's companion spirit, the Jade Marrow Ice Soul. Zhu Chengwu also learned the whereabouts of Yang Lei Zhenyan from Narcissus twenty-five years ago.

There has been no trace of Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus for twenty-five years.

Bai Shan felt that either Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus had an internal conflict. After all, kings do not meet each other. When two people who are ambitious and have the potential to achieve a level above the Grandmaster or the Yang God meet, it is normal for an internal conflict to arise after a temporary cooperation.

Either Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus both failed in their attempt to break through to the Grandmaster and Yang God levels in some corner and died from the backlash, or at least were seriously injured by the backlash.

Of course, there is one last possibility that Bai Shan is most reluctant to accept, that is, Zhu Chengwu and Narcissus are breaking through to the level above Grandmaster or Yang God, and the next moment they may appear in the world with an unprecedented status above Grandmaster or Yang God.

However, the moment he saw Zhu Chengwu and the blue lightning-shaped flame floating in front of him, Bai Shan's many previous speculations about Zhu Chengwu came to an end.

Zhu Chengwu did not perish together with Narcissus after the internal conflict, nor did he die in some corner after failing to reach the master level, and he did not even attempt to reach the master level.

For the past twenty-five years, Zhu Chengwu has been waiting for the Yang Lei Zhen Yan to be nurtured.

It turned out that twenty-five years ago, when Narcissus told Zhu Chengwu about the Yang Lei Zhen Yan, the Yang Lei Zhen Yan had not yet taken shape.

In this case, now that they meet again, Bai Shan will not let Zhu Chengwu leave safely with Yang Lei Zhen Yan.

With Fu'an Hou Zhu Chengwu's talent as the best in the Ming Dynasty, he was already so strong twenty-five years ago. Who knows how much stronger he will be after twenty-five years.

After letting Zhu Chengwu leave safely this time, can Zhu Chengwu, who has obtained the Yang Lei Zhenyan, successfully achieve the level of a grandmaster?

Given the hostile relationship between the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, if Zhu Chengwu successfully achieved the status of Grandmaster, it would not be a good thing for either the Qing Dynasty or Baishan.

This was the reason why Bai Shan was the first to speak among so many Grandmaster Yang Shen present, using his power to overwhelm others, and his words put all the Grandmaster Yang Shen who arrived here on the opposite side of Zhu Chengwu.

"Really? Are you guys really enough?" Zhu Chengwu sneered, and his body and the blue lightning-shaped flame in front of him suddenly disappeared.

The next moment, he appeared three feet in front of Bai Shan where the words came from.

"not good!"

Looking at Zhu Chengwu's sudden appearance, Bai Shan was frightened.

Bai Shan never expected that in the face of so many Grandmaster Yang Shens present, Zhu Chengwu would actually dare to take the initiative to attack.

Moreover, they chose him, a powerful man who was among the top three masters of the Qing Dynasty and not far from being a top master, as a breakthrough point.

"I've really been underestimated! In that case, come on!"

After a moment of fear, Baishan's heart was filled with anger.

As one of the top three masters of the Qing Dynasty and a powerful man not far from the supreme master, Bai Shan is not powerless even when facing the upper limit of martial arts in this world - the supreme master (grand master).

Zhu Chengwu is very strong, but the Yang Lei True Flame has just been nurtured. Can Zhu Chengwu surpass the limits of his predecessors?

"White Mountain and Black Soil Magic!"

Baishan, who had a plan in mind, looked at Zhu Chengwu who was close at hand, and without any hesitation, he directly used the undisputed number one magic skill of the Qing Dynasty - Baishan Black Soil Magic Skill.

Baishan and Heitu were originally enemies, but later they developed a mutual understanding and, due to various coincidences, they eventually became a couple.

The kind where men go on blind dates!
After Baishan and Heitu became "lovers", they trusted each other very much and shared their skills and resources without reservation.

In the end, they were able to deduce the "White Mountain and Black Soil Divine Art", which is extremely superior among all the divine arts books.

With the help of "White Mountain and Black Earth Magical Art", Baishan and Heitu have both made considerable progress in the Grandmaster realm and are only one step away from becoming the ultimate Grandmaster (Grand Grandmaster).

It’s a pity that the success was due to the White Mountain Black Soil Magical Art, and the failure was also due to the White Mountain Black Soil Magical Art.

Although Baishan and Heitu are both geniuses, they are also very lucky and successfully deduced the supreme magic skill book "Baishan Heitu Magic Skill"!
But the power of the two is limited after all, and they are not like Zhu Chengwu, who has the "Jade Edict" in his mind.

When they were only one step away from becoming a supreme master (grand master), they got stuck, and were never able to take another step forward and achieve the realm of a supreme master (grand master).

Not only was their martial arts skills stuck, but the Qing Dynasty, which was supported by Baishan and Heitu, also hit a bottleneck shortly after their martial arts skills were stuck.

As the power of the Qing Dynasty continued to expand, the Ming Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty, while fighting each other, finally devoted a lot of energy to restricting the Qing Dynasty.

It would be funny if the Ming Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty ended up fighting each other, but the Qing Dynasty took advantage of it!

In order to break the impasse, Baishan and Heitu have been searching for high-level treasures of heaven and earth for quite some time.

Baishan and Heitu both believed that as long as they had high-level treasures of heaven and earth, they would be able to rely on the help of high-level treasures of heaven and earth to forcibly achieve the realm of supreme master (grand master).

Once Baishan and Heitu achieve the level of supreme master (grand master), with two supreme masters (grand masters) in charge, the Qing Dynasty that they have supported will naturally continue to expand outward.

It’s a pity that when good luck comes, heaven and earth will work together, but when bad luck comes, heroes cannot be free!

Decades passed, and even with the support of the Qing Dynasty, one of the six newly emerging dynasties, Baishan and Heitu still had no news of any high-level treasures from heaven and earth.

This shows how rare and precious high-level treasures of heaven and earth are!

This shows how lucky Zhu Chengwu was to get the Earth Core Fire Lotus from Cui!

Twenty-five years ago, news came out that Nanzhu Kingdom was suspected to have high-level rare treasures. Although Baishan arrived in Nanzhu Kingdom, Heitu was hindered by unexpected internal affairs of the Qing Dynasty.

Baishan, who was lacking in fighting power, finally returned empty-handed!

Although twenty-five years ago, even if Heitu and Baishan arrived at Nanzhu Kingdom together, Baishan and Heitu might not be able to seize the Jade Marrow Ice Soul and Silver Dollar Pure Water in the chaos, but at least there was a possibility of successfully seizing them.

Because Baishan and Heitu are practicing the "Baishan Heitu Divine Art" together, and their strength level is only one step away from the top master (grand master). If the two of them join forces, they will be able to gain the combat power to suppress ordinary top masters (grand masters) in a short period of time.

Being able to suppress the combat power of ordinary top masters (grand masters) in a short period of time is the fundamental reason why Baishan and Heitu can support one of the six dynasties.

Now they have "accidentally" met Zhu Chengwu again, and Baishan and Heitu are both there, so they naturally will not give up this opportunity.

"White Mountain and Black Soil Magic!"

At the moment when Baishan was practicing his skills, Heitu, who was on the top of the mountain not far from Baishan, chose to fly over to provide support immediately.

The two men struck Zhu Chengwu in front of Bai Shan with their palms together!

As geniuses who have cultivated themselves all the way to become just one step away from becoming a top master, and as pillars of power that have single-handedly supported the creation of one of the six great dynasties, Baishan and Heitu are both shameless and will do their utmost to face their enemies.

The so-called one-on-one does not exist for them at all!

"bring it on!"

Unexpectedly, facing the double attack of the white mountain in front of him and the black soil flying from the side, Zhu Chengwu did not dodge, but directly pushed the white mountain in front of him with one palm.

Boom~~

Zhu Chengwu and Bai Shan's palms came together, and a huge wave of energy surged outwards like a tidal wave.

"Ah~~~"

Then there was a scream.

Baishan was knocked flying.

No one expected that in a head-on confrontation, the powerful Bai Shan couldn't even block a single move from Zhu Chengwu.

At this time, Heitu flew from the side, intending to support and attack Wei to save Zhao, thinking that after forcing Zhu Chengwu back, he could form a joint attack with Baishan. Only then did he arrive at Zhu Chengwu's side despite the shocking air wave after the palms of Zhu Chengwu and Baishan collided.

Baishan didn't take any of Heitu's moves, which was beyond Heitu's expectations.

Baishan's injured screams also made Heitu feel uneasy.

But Heitu, who had experienced countless battle tests, knew that the more times like this, the more he could not panic or get confused.

Heitu didn't hesitate at all. The moment Zhu Chengwu was frozen in place by the reactionary force of Baishan's repulsion, he struck Zhu Chengwu's temple with a palm.

Buzz~~~
Suddenly, a light yellow transparent air shield appeared around Zhu Chengwu, wrapping him tightly.

Heitu's full-strength attack hit the light yellow transparent air shield, and only made a muffled "buzz" sound.

There was no sign of breaking through the pale yellow transparent gas shield.
