World's Strongest Martial Warrior

"It appears that Peter Parker has successfully completed the Great Luo Trial and secured the legacy of the Absolute Cold Immortal Venerable. His talent is truly more extraordinary than Wan Xinghan from Azure Cloud Immortal Manor."    

...    

Upon witnessing this spectacle, onlookers couldn't resist expressing their awe.    

Luo Qing'er and her companions were particularly impressed. They had not anticipated that Peter Parker, who began the Great Luo Trials significantly later than Wan Xinghan, would so swiftly succeed and claim the heritage left by Immortal Juexin.    

"He's undoubtedly a rare and prodigious talent with strong ties to the Immortal Kings," they remarked.    

He Chenyi felt a surge of astonishment. Faced with unparalleled talents like Wan Xinghan and Peter Parker, he was acutely aware that his chances of claiming the Great Luo inheritance were slim.    

Yet, having conquered two stages of the Great Luo Trials and acquired several hundred immortal stones, he felt his efforts were rewarded.    

He Chenyi held Peter Parker in much higher regard compared to Wan Xinghan of Cangyun Immortal Abode. With Peter Parker now in possession of the Great Luo's legacy, He Chenyi couldn't help but feel pleased.    

"The inheritance of Immortal Sovereign Juhan is mine, Wan Xinghan. I won't let anyone take it from me!"    

Wan Xinghan bellowed with wild determination, his menacing gaze fixed on Luo Qing'er.    

Peter Parker had deep connections with the Luo Water Merchant Union in Tianshui City. Capturing Luo Qing'er from the Union could potentially coerce Peter Parker into relinquishing the Absolute Cold Immortal Venerable's inheritance.    

"Miss, be careful," warned the protectors.    

Alert to Wan Xinghan's intentions, the two Ninth Grade True Immortals' faces fell. They quickly positioned themselves to shield Luo Qing'er.    

"Do you really think you can stop me? Out of my way!"    

With a ferocious roar, Wan Xinghan unleashed a wave of overwhelming True Immortal force toward Luo Qing'er and her guardians.    

The two Ninth Grade True Immortals from the Luo Water Merchant Union braced themselves, doing their utmost to counter the assault.    

However...    

Both were ninth-grade True Immortals, yet their combat skills paled in comparison to prodigies like Wan Xinghan.    

Bang! Bang!    

Two resounding impacts echoed as they shielded Luo Xing-er, retreating several hundred feet in a harrowing display. They couldn't help but cough up mouthfuls of blood in a wild spray.    

"Anyone in my way will perish!"    

Wan Xinghan's gaze was icy. He had no intention of allowing Luo Qing'er and her companions a moment's respite. He lifted his hand to deliver another devastating palm strike.    

As danger loomed over Luo Qing'er and the others, Ning Gaoyang and He Chenyi simultaneously sprang into action, thwarting Wan Xinghan's attack.    

"He Chenyi, what's the meaning of this? You dare meddle in my affairs? Are you seeking enmity with my Cangyun Immortal Estate?"    

Wan Xinghan's face darkened considerably upon seeing He Chenyi and Ning Gaoyang standing in his way.    

Both were esteemed geniuses from Golden Immortal factions. Though not quite his equals, Wan Xinghan knew that if they worked together, they would pose a significant challenge.    

He Chenyi scoffed contemptuously, "Wan Xinghan, you're considered a luminary of the great Luo faction, yet you lack the merit to claim the Great Luo's legacy. Resorting to such vile tactics to coerce Brother Jiang Chen, you've utterly disgraced the Cangyun Immortal Estate."    

"I'll decide my actions as I see fit!"    

Wan Xinghan's stare was frosty. "If you wish to avoid humiliation, I suggest you clear off this instant!"    

"With us here, Wan Xinghan, you won't lay a finger on Miss Luo of the Luo Family."    

He Chenyi's retort was biting. "You exploited our battle with the tree demon, attacking while we were gravely wounded. Now, let's see just how formidable a Cangyun Immortal Estate prodigy truly is!"    

He Chenyi and his companions harbored no fondness for this so-called genius of the Cangyun Immortal Estate.    

Back then, they had valiantly battled the tree demon to the brink of death and exhaustion. However, Wan Xinghan had opportunistically leapt into the fray at a critical juncture. Had Peter Parker not decisively reclaimed the Tree Yao Essence Fruit and held Wan Xinghan at bay, they might well have ended up as mere tokens in Wan Xinghan's disciples' matrimonial celebrations.    

After Peter Parker retrieved the Tree Fairy Fruit, he generously shared one with them.    

Now, with Wan Xinghan's assault on Luo Qing'er, his intentions were clear: he aimed to leverage Luo Qing'er as a bargaining chip to compel Peter Parker to surrender the Great Luo inheritance. They couldn't possibly allow Wan Xinghan to succeed without a fight.    

"Excellent, very excellent!" Wan Xinghan bellowed, his voice seething with rage born from humiliation. "Since you all seem so eager to meet your demise, I shall oblige!" With that, he channeled the power of the Mysterious Underworld Cold Pearl, launching an attack at He Chenyi and his companion.    

Despite being a prodigy of the Cangyun Immortal Estate, Wan Xinghan was not its crown jewel. Two other exceptional geniuses stood above him, their talents overshadowing his own.    

Moreover, both of these formidable individuals were heirs to the Great Luo legacy. Without this inheritance, Wan Xinghan's chances of surpassing them were slim at best. The Zenith Cold Immortal's legacy represented his golden opportunity.    

Wan Xinghan knew that with these two determined to thwart him, words were futile. His only recourse was to overcome them and seize Luo Qing'er with all haste.    

Otherwise, once Peter Parker emerged from the main hall, Wan Xinghan feared the inheritance of the Great Luo might slip through his fingers forever.    

Summoning his full might, Wan Xinghan activated the Dark Mysterious Cold Bead. Space itself seemed to freeze, coalescing into a towering 300-meter ice mountain, which he hurled at He Chenyi and his ally.    

Unfazed, He Chenyi and his counterpart, Ning Gaoyang, summoned the power of their Golden Immortal magical treasures, meeting Wan Xinghan's icy onslaught head-on.    

Boom!    

The resulting explosion echoed thunderously.    

He Chenyi and Ning Gaoyang staggered, their bodies quivering from the impact. Digging their heels in, they were forced to retreat more than ten paces.    

They raised their heads to gaze at Wan Xinghan standing before them, a newfound solemnity in their eyes.    

The elite prodigies of the Great Luo faction certainly justified their renown!    

Despite Wan Xinghan's cultivation being a notch below theirs, as he was only a Rank Eight True Immortal, even their combined efforts seemed insufficient to secure an upper hand against him.    

Wan Xinghan maintained a cold, detached demeanor. Having repelled He Chenyi and another with a singular strike, he allowed them no respite. He propelled the Mysterious Underworld Cold Pearl towards them once more with relentless intent.    

He Chenyi's eyes narrowed involuntarily. As they braced to counterattack with full force... Boom! Without warning, a brilliant golden sword light burst forth from the Freezing Sky Immortal Palace's main hall. It obliterated the chilling miasma unleashed by the Ten Thousand Star Freezing Sky Pearl in one fell swoop.    

Simultaneously, a mocking laugh tinged with coldness echoed through the air.    

"Wan Xinghan, your unbridled ambition to claim the Great Luo inheritance knows no bounds. The legacy of the Absolute Chill Immortal Honored Warrior is now in my possession. If you dare, come and claim it."    

As the laughter subsided, the silhouette of Peter Parker emerged leisurely from the main hall of the Absolute Cold Immortal Palace.
