Chapter 766: Chapter 407: The Stronger We Encounter, The Stronger We Become

"Ling Mu, Senior Brother, why are you getting so worked up?"

Gu Sheng chuckled lightly.

"Humph!"

Ling Mu said no more but continued charging fiercely toward Gu Sheng.

"Elder, Ling Mu is already using both hands. If Gu Sheng isn’t allowed to meet him with matched effort, he might suffer a disadvantage."

Ji Ziyue called out anxiously as she observed the situation.

"Hey, Senior Sister, why are you so worried?"

"Exactly. This is a sparring match, not a fight to the death. What are you scared of?"

Several cultivators accompanying Ling Mu teased from the sidelines.

From their perspective, it seemed inevitable that Gu Sheng would be thoroughly defeated by Ling Mu this time.

Li Ruoyu shook his head slightly. "No harm."

"No... no harm..."

Seeing that Li Ruoyu had no intention of intervening, Ji Ziyue suddenly darted forward.

"Swish!"

But just as Ji Ziyue was about to act, a binding sensation engulfed her in an instant.

She immediately felt her meridians blocked and her body stiffened.

"Oh no! I’m immobilized by acupoint sealing!"

Ji Ziyue froze in shock.

"Their duel is none of your concern."

Li Ruoyu said, waving his hand toward Ji Ziyue.

In an instant, Ji Ziyue’s body floated lightly as though a feather, drifting to Li Ruoyu’s side.

"Elder... Elder..."

Ji Ziyue called out in her heart, but not a sound escaped her lips.

Meanwhile, Ling Mu unleashed a move called "Mount Tai Overhead," slamming it directly toward Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng took a deep breath, preparing to counter this formidable move.

Yet, at the critical juncture, a mysterious power within Gu Sheng suddenly awakened.

This force, akin to a dormant dragon stirring, surged with an irresistible momentum straight toward Ling Mu.

"What’s going on?"

Gu Sheng murmured inwardly in shock.

Even he was astonished by the sheer power of this surge.

Simultaneously, Ling Mu sensed the sudden force.

His heart jolted; he had never encountered such powerful Inner Strength before.

Acting on instinct, he swiftly dodged.

However, even then, the force grazed his robe, causing a sharp, stinging sensation.

"What... what kind of power is this?"

Ling Mu stood stunned, his thoughts swirling with doubt.

He hesitated, realizing that his individual strength might not be sufficient to overcome Gu Sheng.

"Brothers, let’s attack together!"

Ling Mu shouted loudly.

His allies, sensing the dire situation, launched their assaults without hesitation, determined to bring Gu Sheng down.

"Zhi-zhi-zhi!"

Their combined efforts unleashed a barrage of techniques like a torrential downpour.

Moreover, their attacks felt as though hitting unyielding stone, utterly ineffective!

"Hoo..."

Gu Sheng exhaled deeply, the enigmatic power within him surging once more.

As the force emerged, Gu Sheng resolved to harness it to its maximum potential.

"Whoosh!"

Gu Sheng unleashed his Divine Power, his single hand darting like a phantom among his opponents.

This time, Gu Sheng moved decisively—defense transformed into offense.

"What! He... he’s actively attacking! And he’s doing it one-handed!"

The cultivators started retreating.

They soon discovered their attacks were futile against Gu Sheng.

But Gu Sheng’s counterattacks were unbearable.

The realization dawned: the duel’s outcome was already sealed.

At last, Gu Sheng prepared to deliver the final blow with an all-encompassing strike.

"Swish!"

Suddenly, twin beams of golden light appeared beside Gu Sheng.

"Enough!"

Li Ruoyu’s voice rang out from nearby.

Gu Sheng halted his actions, recognizing Elder Jin and Elder Mu had arrived at Zhuo Peak.

Standing still, Gu Sheng sensed that their arrival marked a shift in the situation.

Still, their presence eased the previously tense atmosphere.

Elder Jin and Elder Mu exchanged glances before bowing slightly toward Li Ruoyu, their tone respectful and pleading. "Senior Brother Li, could we end this misunderstanding here? While Ling Mu and the others acted rashly, they were merely impulsive. We humbly ask for your leniency."
