World's Strongest Martial Warrior

Peter Parker eyed the jade plate in Wan Xinghan's grasp with an air of calm composure.    

Despite the formidable nature of Wan Xinghan's trump card, which imparted a subtle pressure on Peter, it fell short of instilling any real fear in him.    

Wan Xinghan's face darkened considerably upon realizing that Peter had dismissed the significance of his trump card.    

His aim in coming here was to claim the Great Luo inheritance from Peter. He had refrained from activating the jade plate for fear that its power would obliterate Peter's soul in an instant.    

But if that happened, how would he ever acquire the Great Luo inheritance from Peter?    

"What? You still hesitate to use the jade plate you're holding?"    

Peter regarded Wan Xinghan with detached coolness. The Skyfrost Sword in his grip shimmered with a threatening light. "If you don't act soon, you might lose your chance entirely."    

"Peter Parker, if you're so eager to meet your end, I'll grant your wish!"    

Wan Xinghan lifted his gaze to meet Peter's, his eyes frosty with unyielding coldness.    

Then...    

With a resounding crack, Wan Xinghan crushed the jade token decisively.    

The disparity between his strength and Peter's was overwhelming. Without the jade token, he feared he wouldn't stand a chance against Peter's blade.    

Buzz!    

As the jade plate shattered, the very fabric of the cosmos quaked. A chilling energy, visible to the naked eye, surged skyward.    

In an instant...    

The world transformed into an icy realm.    

The previously clear sky was now shrouded in ominous clouds. The air temperature plummeted, and snow began to fall like downy feathers.    

The snowflakes thickened, blanketing the heavens and the earth.    

Within moments, a thousand feet above Peter Parker's head became a vast expanse of white, a frozen world.    

"So this is the might of a Golden Immortal? Truly formidable!"    

Peter looked up at the icy domain overhead, sensing the flow of Immortal Force within him slowing to a crawl.    

He inhaled deeply, channeling the Green Emperor's Secret Art of Longevity with all his might, effortlessly dispelling the chill.    

Suddenly, a brilliant white light erupted from the icy heavens above.    

A waterfall of ice and snow, a thousand feet across, cascaded down toward Peter Parker. The chilling force seemed intent on obliterating not only him but the very space around him.    

"Green Emperor's Sword!"    

Confronting the descending icy deluge, Peter Parker brandished his Skyfrost Immortal Sword and cleaved through the air.    

Riiiip!    

Space itself fractured. A matchless sword immortal, clad in green, soared through the sky to meet the icy onslaught.    

His sword stroke, deceptively nonchalant, unleashed a sword energy of staggering ferocity.    

The sword qi turned the heavens upside down, striking the ice and snow waterfall with brutal force.    

Bang!    

The two formidable powers entwined mid-air, clashing repeatedly in a heartbeat. A cacophony of blasts echoed through the heavens as snow and wind howled, the sword qi cutting a swath through it all.    

At a glance, it appeared as though the sky had been rent with countless fissures.    

Peter Parker, now on the cusp of the Heaven Immortal realm, wielded the Great Luo Immortal Sword. Employing the Green Emperor Sword from the Green Emperor Sword Art once more, its might was undeniably fearsome.    

Even faced with Wan Xinghan's Golden Immortal ace, he showed no sign of weakness.    

"How... How is this possible?"    

Shock was etched on Wan Xinhan's face as he watched Peter Parker effortlessly fend off the ice waterfall.    

The jade token he had used, though nonchalantly created by his master, still harbored a sliver of potent Golden Immortal energy.    

Previously, he had used the token to vanquish a Seventh Grade Heavenly Immortal, yet now, Peter Parker's sword had easily countered it!    

In essence, Peter Parker possessed a combat prowess on par with, if not surpassing, a Seventh Grade Heavenly Immortal.    

Swoosh! Swoosh!    

In the sky, the forces of the Ice Snow Waterfall and the Green Emperor's sword continued their intricate dance.    

Eventually, after an enduring struggle, the might of Peter Parker's sword dissipated, overwhelmed by the relentless barrage of the Ice and Snow Waterfall.    

However, after the ice waterfall had been vanquished by the sword attack of the Green Emperor, the deluge of power bearing down on Peter Parker had all but dissipated.    

Peter Parker took a step back, nonchalantly swinging the Skyfrost Immortal Sword in his grasp, effortlessly disintegrating the residual energy from the waterfall.    

"This kid... is nothing short of a prodigious talent," Ji An muttered, his gaze fixed on the unfolding spectacle. It took a considerable amount of time for him to shake off his astonishment.    

The jade token that Wan Xinghan had activated was imbued with a vestige of power from a seventh-grade Golden Immortal of the Cangyun Immortal Estate. Even with his own formidable strength as a peak sixth-grade Heaven Immortal, Ji An felt utterly helpless against even a fraction of a Golden Immortal's might.    

Yet, this individual, who had barely reached the threshold of a Heaven Immortal, had managed to withstand the assault unscathed. It was beyond belief!    

"Junior Brother Xinghan, this kid is far too formidable. We're no match for him. We must retreat," Ji An urged, his voice tinged with panic, as he addressed Wan Xinghan.    

Upon hearing Ji An's words, Wan Xinghan's face contorted with reluctance. He had bided his time for two months since his return to the Sky Water Immortal City, eagerly anticipating Peter Parker's departure. He had been convinced that with the support of two Heaven Immortal experts and the ace up his sleeve provided by his master, claiming the Great Luo inheritance from Peter Parker would be a walk in the park.    

But he hadn't anticipated this.    

Peter Parker's power had soared to staggering new heights, rendering Wan Xinghan's hopes of reclaiming the Great Luo inheritance today utterly futile.    

"Wan Xinghan, take your men and vanish from my sight. I'm sparing you this one last time. Cross me again, and I won't hesitate to end you," Peter Parker declared, his gaze piercing down at Wan Xinghan from above. His cold, resolute voice echoed across the land.    

Given Peter Parker's newfound prowess, dispatching Wan Xinghan would be a trivial task.    

However, Peter Parker curbed the lethal rage simmering within him. After all, Wan Xinghan was affiliated with the most prestigious Luo faction in Cang Yun Province, the Azure Cloud Immortal Manor.    

Peter Parker had resolved to leave Cang Yun Province and held no fear for the Cang Yun Immortal Mansion. However, he knew that if he were to kill Wan Xinghan and then disappear, the Cang Yun Immortal Mansion would inevitably discover the involvement of the Luo Water Merchant Union. Peter certainly didn't want his rash actions to spell trouble for the union.    

"Let's go!" Wan Xinghan, casting a dark look at Peter Parker, summoned Ji An and his companion and turned to depart.    

Meanwhile, in the midst of the void, Lu Ding, locked in fierce combat with Luo Wuji, managed to repel him with a decisive move. He and Wan Xinghan then swiftly vanished into the distance.
