World's Strongest Martial Warrior

Nonetheless, Peter Parker's actions left him feeling perplexed.    

At present, all three factions had convened, with the Taiyi Immortal Sect emerging as the most formidable. Mo Hu's group was at a disadvantage. The logical strategy would be to ally with Mo Hu and his allies to confront the Taiyi Immortal Sect.    

It appeared that Peter Parker planned to leverage Gu Melville to eliminate Mo Hu and his two companions first.    

Despite her confusion, Liu Qingyi chose to trust Peter Parker in that moment.    

After all, the Taiyi Immortal Sect boasted not only the immensely powerful Ancient Melville but also three cultivators on the cusp of achieving Great Perfection and two prodigies who had surpassed tribulation. Their strength was undeniable.    

Without Peter Parker's intervention, they feared victory would remain elusive.    

Peter Parker's gaze briefly met Mo Hu and his two compatriots, who were collectively assailing Gu Melville, before shifting to the towering three-hundred-meter stone platform at the center.    

Throughout this ordeal, Peter Parker had never truly considered Mo Hu and his group a priority.    

His earlier decision not to strike Mo Hu and his companions, while meeting with Liu Qingyi, stemmed from his concern that the Taiyi Immortal Sect might claim Daoist Tian Yu's immortal legacy before him, prompting him to avoid any further delays.    

With Daoist Tian Yu's legacy now within reach, the lives of Mo Hu and his group were of little consequence to him.    

In any case, they had come seeking the Immortal Destiny. Should they fall to Gu Melville, it would conveniently resolve many issues for him.    

Moreover, while Mo Hu and his two allies were no match for Gu Melville, they could at least occupy him for a while. This diversion would grant Peter Parker the chance to decipher the formation surrounding the stone platform and seize the opportunity it concealed as swiftly as possible.    

Upon his arrival, Peter Parker had already noticed the intricate formation encircling the stone platform.    

This formation seal was the most intact and complex within the entire hall. Even Peter Parker had not been able to identify any weaknesses in it, at least not immediately.    

Seizing the opportunity while Gu Melville was preoccupied with Mo Hu and the others, he focused on deciphering the intricate formation seal before him.    

Peter Parker was deeply engrossed in understanding the formation seal.    

Meanwhile, Mo Hu and his two companions unleashed a barrage of astonishing divine powers. Three colossal waves of magic surged, filling the hall with their immense energy.    

The hall, constructed of exceptional materials and reinforced with innumerable formations, narrowly escaped destruction from the overwhelming magical forces.    

Around the Nether River, a monstrous black wave emerged, as if summoned by the Underworld King himself. Hei Nan, with wings sprouting from his back, conjured a fearsome black storm. A massive black tiger, its presence as formidable as an ancient wild beast, materialized and roared at Gu Melville.    

The space thundered and ruptured. The hall was engulfed in a sea of Yuan Qi, with three titanic auras dominating the space, sending tremors through the hearts of all present.    

The walls of the hall sparked to life as countless runic seals activated, their glow containing the aura and safeguarding the ancient structure.    

Liu Qingyi and the others were compelled to wield their magic against the hall's daunting presence, their gaze fixed on Gu Melville.    

A transcendent genius, a cultivator at the zenith of the Quasi-Sacred Realm, and a prodigy of the same realm—united, they posed a formidable challenge. Could Gu Melville, despite his unmatched strength, handle them with ease?    

Yet, as the trio launched their joint assault, Gu Melville remained unfazed.    

With a casual flick of his finger, a streak of green light shot forth, striking Hei Nan's wings.    

"Bang!"    

Hei Nan's form quivered as his black wings detonated in a violent burst.    

In the ensuing moment, Hei Nan let out a stifled groan. His body was hurled backward, crashing against the hall's wall with such force that bright red blood spurted from his mouth.    

The enormous black tiger let out a thunderous roar as it charged forward.    

Gu Melville, with one hand casually resting behind him, clenched his other fist and, with a fluid motion, delivered a powerful punch.    

"Bang!"    

Words failed to capture the essence of the seemingly ordinary punch that unfolded before their eyes.    

An invisible force transformed the black tiger and the very fabric of space around it into a void.    

The force obliterated the black tiger and, in a flash, collided with Mo Hu. It pierced his chest and continued its destructive path until it struck a distant wall, ten thousand feet away, where it clashed with the astral wind formation, resulting in a thunderous roar.    

"Ah!"    

Mo Hu's cry of agony pierced the air.    

His tall, robust frame emitted crackling sounds as a gaping hole appeared in his chest, revealing a glimpse of faint golden blood and bone.    

Had it not been for Mo Hu's formidable constitution, Gu Melville's seemingly effortless punch would have been fatal.    

"Boom!"    

With Mo Hu incapacitated by a single blow, Gu Melville spread his fingers wide, and an invisible force, akin to a colossal palm, bore down upon the Nether River.    

"Die."    

The Nether River met Gu Melville's gaze with a look of ferocity. Monstrous black waves, teeming with a force capable of consuming all in its path, surged toward Gu Melville.    

Yet...    

In the face of Gu Melville, this fearsome onslaught proved futile.    

His unseen palm force descended, dissipating the monstrous black waves in its wake, before finally crashing down upon Styx's form.    

"Boom!"    

A resounding impact echoed through the hall, shaking the very foundations.    

Styx's body was driven into the ground by Gu Melville's palm, leaving an imprint resembling a human crater.    

Had Styx not produced a jade talisman at the last moment to shield himself, he would have been reduced to nothing more than a smear on the floor.    

"What... What terrifying strength!"    

Liu Qingyi and the others could only swallow hard as they witnessed the awe-inspiring display. It took them a considerable time to shake off their astonishment.    

A single finger, a fist, and a palm had effortlessly vanquished Mo Hu and his companions.    

The Quasi-Great Celestial from the Taiyi Immortal Sect was a force beyond their comprehension.    

"He lost so quickly?"    

Even Peter Parker couldn't conceal his surprise upon seeing that Mo Hu and the others couldn't withstand even a single strike from Gu Melville.    

Despite being aware of Gu Melville's formidable combat prowess, he hadn't anticipated such a swift defeat for Mo Hu and his allies.    

Yet, he hadn't anticipated this outcome.    

Mo Hu and the other two were swiftly defeated by Gu Melville, unable to withstand even a single blow.    

"This guy... he truly lives up to his reputation as a quasi Great Cheng elite trained by the Tai Yi Immortal Sect."    

Peter Parker couldn't help but silently acknowledge.    

The man before him was undoubtedly the first prodigy capable of challenging a true Great Perfection cultivator with only a Quasi-Great Perfection level of cultivation since Peter Parker's arrival in the Immortal Breaking Universe.    

Mo Hu picked himself up off the ground, looking rather disheveled. His voice, filled with anger, echoed through the hall.    

"Liu Qingyi, you... you didn't join the fight against us. If we perish today, I fear you won't make it out of here alive either!"
