World's Strongest Martial Warrior

Surrounded by his entourage, Luo Alonzo quickly encircled Peter Parker and his companion. With a frosty glare, he barked at Peter Parker.    

"You don't need to know who I am," Peter Parker replied coolly, meeting Alonzo's gaze. "All you need to understand is that as long as I'm here, Luo Qing'er won't suffer the slightest harm."    

"Big talk for someone who doesn't seem that powerful," Luo Alonzo sneered contemptuously. "Let's see how you, a mere Fourth Stage True Immortal, plan to defend Luo Qing'er!"    

Before Alonzo could finish his taunt, he unleashed a golden sword from his grasp. The radiant blade, bright as the sun, sliced through the air, materializing instantly above Peter Parker's head.    

Unfazed, Peter Parker's expression remained stoic. Luo Alonzo's attack didn't rattle him in the slightest.    

With a quick flash of the Human Emperor Sword in his hand, Peter Parker raised his arm and effortlessly flicked at the golden sword light.    

Bang!    

The golden sword light shattered, vanishing into nothingness. A tempest erupted, sending shockwaves of air surging skyward.    

"How is this possible?" Luo Alonzo's eyes quivered, his astonishment evident as he stared at Peter Parker.    

He was a respected Ninth Grade True Immortal. A strike from him, even a casual one, would not be easily withstood by an ordinary Eighth Grade True Immortal.    

Yet this youth clad in black, who was supposedly only a Fourth Grade True Immortal, had just effortlessly neutralized his attack!    

Could this individual truly be a mere fourth-grade True Immortal?    

How could someone at the Fourth Stage of True Immortality wield such formidable combat strength?    

High above, Luo An, facing off against Luo Li, couldn't help but gape in disbelief, a sense of foreboding gripping him.    

He was almost certain that the black-robed youth standing with Luo Qing'er was at the cultivation level of a Fourth Stage True Immortal.    

However, this Rank Four True Immortal displayed a might that rivaled that of a Rank Nine True Immortal!    

Though Luo An had never witnessed such a phenomenon himself, he had certainly heard tales of such extraordinary individuals.    

Based on his knowledge, within the Cang Yun State's several formidable Luo factions, there was rumored to be a prodigious talent capable of challenging a ninth-grade True Immortal while only being a Rank Four True Immortal himself. Could this black-robed young man be one of those exceptional geniuses from a prominent Luo power? The thought weighed heavily on Luo An's mind. If this youth truly hailed from the elite ranks of the Great Luo, they could be facing serious trouble.    

"You certainly have some skill," Luo Alonzo conceded, managing to quell the astonishment in his heart. His gaze upon Peter Parker turned grave. "It's no wonder you have the audacity to be so bold in my presence."    

Given that the young man had effortlessly parried his strike, it was clear evidence of his formidable power, rivaling that of a ninth-tier True Immortal. Luo Alonzo realized he could not afford to be careless and had to take his opponent seriously.    

Peter Parker's demeanor remained relaxed as he regarded Luo Alonzo with a cool detachment. "If you value your life, I suggest you leave my sight immediately."    

A sinister look crossed Luo Alonzo's face. "Die? I'm eager to see who between us will meet their end today!"    

With a ferocious roar, Luo Alonzo summoned an immense surge of Immortal Yuan, which coalesced into a brilliant sword Qi. This energy took shape, forming a three-legged Golden Crow that dove at Peter Parker with lethal intent.    

"You truly don't know the difference between life and death," Peter Parker said, shaking his head, his eyes devoid of emotion.    

Then, with deliberate slowness, he stepped forward. Behind him, a towering chaotic sword shadow materialized in an instant—Divine Body Phenomena Chaos Sword.    

At his command, the chaotic sword shadow cleaved through the air with a resounding crash.    

Boom!    

The sword's shadow obliterated the golden three-legged Golden Crow as if it were mere tinder, reducing it to fragments that scattered in the wind. In the span of a heartbeat, the thousand-foot-long Golden Crow was annihilated, leaving nothing but void where it once soared.    

The backlash from the Chaotic Sword Shadow's residual energy left Luo Alonzo reeling, his face flushing a deep red. Staggering back more than ten paces, he struggled to contain the tumultuous Qi within him. His eyes, wide with incredulity, remained fixed on Peter Parker.    

Despite being only a Rank Four True Immortal, the density of Immortal Essence within this youngster surpassed even that of a Rank Nine True Immortal like himself! His full-force attack had been effortlessly overpowered by his adversary.    

"A Rank Nine True Immortal... seems that's all you amount to. I've already offered you a chance. Since you're hell-bent on a death wish, I'll oblige," Peter Parker declared. As his words trailed off, the Human Emperor Sword in his grasp fused with the chaotic sword at his back.    

"Sword and Elephant Unite, slash!" he commanded.    

The chaotic sword's shadow blended with the Human Emperor Sword, transforming into a fearsome sword light that hurtled toward Luo Alonzo.    

Luo Alonzo's eyes narrowed, knowing he was up against a formidable foe. He summoned all his True Immortal might, conjuring an even more massive three-legged Golden Crow to counter the daunting sword assault.    

With a thunderous clash, the sword light and the Golden Crow met, shattering the latter into a shower of golden sparks.    

Luo Alonzo coughed up blood, his face a picture of utter defeat. "This kid is invincible. I must escape!"    

Terror gripped his heart, and he spun around, desperate to flee.    

The day's plans had crumbled to dust.    

Luo Wuji had ascended to the eighth-grade Heaven Immortal realm, overpowering Luo Changkong, a ninth-grade Heaven Immortal. Luo An, freshly advanced to the Celestial Immortal level, was no match for the seasoned Celestial Immortal Luo Li.    

And against this enigmatic youth in black, he stood even less chance.    

They were powerless to prevent Luo Qing'er from delivering the healing immortal medicine to Luo Qianqiu.    

If things persisted this way, they might not perish at the hands of this dark-clad youth, but once Luo Qianqiu healed, the Luo Water Merchant Union would likely cast them out.    

"I gave you a chance earlier, but you stayed. Think you can escape now?" Peter Parker's expression was cold as he unleashed a strike with the Green Emperor Sword.    

In a flash, the visage of the Green Emperor sliced through the fabric of time and space, descending upon the fleeing Luo Alonzo with a decisive blow.    

In that instant, Luo Alonzo, who was fleeing in a state of panic, abruptly went from a blur of speed to a complete standstill. Then, with a resounding explosion, his body burst apart in midair, leaving behind only a golden immortal crystal that zipped away.    

Peter Parker reached out and effortlessly snagged the immortal crystal from the air, holding it suspended before him.    

The power within a Ninth Grade True Immortal's crystal was immense and terrifying. Absorbing it could potentially elevate his cultivation level by an entire grade. Peter Parker had no intention of letting such a treasure go to waste.    

"S-Sir, please spare my life!" came a desperate plea from within the crystal. Luo Alonzo's immortal essence, trapped inside, was begging Peter Parker for mercy, its voice laced with fear.    

True Immortals' bodies could condense into immortal crystals, yet the essence contained within was exceedingly delicate.    

This was the very reason why, barring a few True Immortals with exceptional abilities, even a ninth-grade immortal like Luo Alonzo would possess an immortal essence as vulnerable as that of a newborn.    

Peter Parker's expression remained stoic, unmoved by Luo Alonzo's cries for mercy. Without a second thought, he extinguished the immortal essence and claimed the crystal for himself.
