Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill - Chapter 1208 - Capítulo 1208: 75: The Attacker
Capítulo 1208: Chapter 75: The Attacker
The struggle for the Supreme Dao Fruit has made the situation clear by now.
Yuanhua, Zhu Xiao, and Zhu Xiao’s duplicate form a triad.
Originally, Zhu Xiao and the duplicate were always entangled, reducing pressure for Yuanhua.
However, the original and the duplicate are not always together.
After the Corrosive Fate Dao’s transformation, the duplicate does not merely chase the original body; they also use suitable resources to enhance their strength.
Yuanhua’s luck seems to be unfortunate; while searching for resources, he directly encountered Zhu Xiao’s duplicate.
Zhu Xiao is very powerful and can defeat opponents despite pressure; naturally, the duplicate is not weak either.
Facing Zhu Xiao’s duplicate, Yuanhua faces considerable pressure.
“I didn’t expect a newcomer to cause me such pressure, the last one was Long Yue Supreme. Today’s young people are truly formidable.” In the vast starry sky, Yuanhua is already among the oldest batch, so calling Zhu Xiao, who is over 200 thousand years old, a young man is not an issue.
Zhu Xiao’s duplicate gazes at Yuanhua and says, “Have you never considered the reasons for your three defeats on the Supreme Road?”
“Reasons? That’s simple, just lacking strength, nothing more to say.” Hearing Zhu Xiao’s duplicate’s sarcastic words, Yuanhua remains unfazed.
Over the years, he has long understood how the outside world views him.
A failure.
Every time, almost reaching Supreme, but always falling just short, indeed strong.
But he knows most people don’t see this, they will see him continually defeated, clearly an old entity with great foundation and experience, yet suppressed by other cultivators.
If he could still get angry at such words, he would have self-destructed long ago.
Duplicate “Zhu Xiao” hears Yuanhua’s response and reveals a cryptic smile: “Do you truly believe it’s just lacking strength? In the endless starry sky, every being has its fate; some are destined from birth to become top-tier powerhouses, while others fall at certain realms, unable to make progress. It may be the First Realm, the Seventh Realm, or the Twelfth Realm. This seems atop the starry sky, but only the cultivator knows how bitter this position can be… Yuanhua, which situation do you think you are in?”
Actually, Yuanhua doesn’t need more words to understand what duplicate “Zhu Xiao” means.
It’s that his fate can only lead him to the Twelfth Realm.
Without waiting for him to speak, the duplicate continues: “You have used a heaven-defying tool, Source Pen, to write your fate, seemingly changing fate, but in reality, your destiny has been fixed, unable to advance any further. The situation on the Supreme Road is proof, always slightly lacking, but how much exactly?”
Duplicate “Zhu Xiao” seems to be attacking the mind, but it’s ineffective.
These words cannot shake Yuanhua’s dedication to his path.
“Perhaps it was once so, but an anomaly has occurred, isn’t it?” Yuanhua directly retorts.
As a top-tier powerhouse, even if he doesn’t know many things, he can gather information from clues.
He knows that even if duplicate “Zhu Xiao’s” words are true, they refer to the past.
Duplicate “Zhu Xiao” pauses in silence, then continues: “Fate will not change; it will eventually return to its track.”
Yuanhua doesn’t continue to linger on this, instead saying: “Originally, I thought I would be facing Zhu Xiao next, but didn’t expect it to be you, the duplicate. Let me test the prowess of a newcomer in advance and see how much progress has been made over the years.”
With those words, Yuanhua takes action without hesitation.
Once he strikes, it’s earth-shattering.
Duplicate “Zhu Xiao” is also not willing to fall behind.
In fact, Yuanhua and Zhu Xiao have walked very similar paths.
Yuanhua follows a pure body enhancement path, terrifyingly powerful.
The name of the Shattered Star Sacred Land is not casually established; he shattered stars with sheer physical might in the Eighth Realm.
On the other hand, Zhu Xiao’s path is named “Body Cultivation,” evolving terrifying Divine Skills through the physical body.
Both clashing head-on, punch after punch, blood spilling in the starry sky.
The battlefield’s commotion is terrifying, ordinary cultivators cannot approach.
Nevertheless, it isn’t without attention.
Zhu Xiao herself is one among those watching.
She remains very focused on her duplicate.
Besides her, other Saint Emperors observe the battle nearby. Only they can watch closely and predict the outcome.
Watching this battle, the Saint Emperors present look uneasy.
Both are in the Twelfth Realm; why is the disparity so great?
And these formidable challengers compete alongside them.
It is foreseeable that as long as these two continue to vie for the Supreme Dao Fruit, they essentially stand no chance.
They’re not opponents at all.
Some who have close relations with Zhu Xiao inquire, “Zhu Xiao Saint Emperor, who do you think might win?”
Other Saint Emperors listening to this question also focus their attention.
They too want to know the answer.
Most of them internally feel Zhu Xiao will likely assert that her duplicate will win.
After all, the duplicate “Zhu Xiao” has strength comparable to Zhu Xiao herself, even identical. Admitting the duplicate can’t win implies believing she also can’t win?
Zhu Xiao does not hesitate, directly answering: “Victory or defeat is simply a matter of desire; if willing —”
“Yuanhua Saint Emperor can secure victory at any time.”
The answer causes an uproar among the crowd.
They imagined Zhu Xiao might modestly claim her duplicate couldn’t win.
