Innate Treasure Body, Innate Inheritance, Innate Bloodline.
Acquired Great Nature Transcendent Colored Spirit, Acquired Taixuan Seed, Acquired Dragon-Elephant Seed.
Three Innate, three Acquired, six Fortunes.
In this world, the more Fortunes one possesses, the stronger they naturally become, but the accompanying dangers also increase dramatically.
Different Fortunes naturally repel each other.
The more Fortunes one has, the more severe the repulsion.
This is especially true for Acquired Fortunes, such as Seeds.
Typically, refining just one is already a remarkable feat; no one would refine two. Such things are dangerous even as a single entity; two Seeds would inevitably repel each other, the risk of Qi Deviation multiplies, and a single misstep could lead to bodily explosion. The more Fortunes one possesses, the greater the danger.
It had always been said that the Twelve Royal Lords of the Nine-Hua Alliance were immensely powerful, possessing unimaginable Fortunes, but no one had imagined that Situ Zhengnan alone possessed so many. Even more terrifying was that despite already having so many Fortunes, he had also refined both a Taixuan Seed and a Dragon-Elephant Seed. It was truly unbelievable and awe-inspiring.
However.
What was even more unbelievable and awe-inspiring was Gu Qingfeng.
Situ Zhengnan's unleashed Transcendent Great Nature Storm had failed to budge his True Body. Now, with Situ Zhengnan unleashing all three of his Innate Fortunes and three Acquired Fortunes, he still could not budge Gu Qingfeng's utterly ordinary-looking arm.
"Do you have any other tricks?"
Gu Qingfeng stood with one hand behind his back, the other gripping Situ Zhengnan. His handsome face held an indifferent expression, his deep, dark eyes profound. His voice carried no emotional inflection, utterly flat, yet when it reached Situ Zhengnan's ears, it scared him out of his wits.
"Since you don't, then kneel."
As the bland words fell, Gu Qingfeng raised his hand and brought it down in a slap, pressing against the crown of Situ Zhengnan's head. With a crack, blood flowed from Situ Zhengnan's seven orifices, his legs mangled into a bloody pulp as he was forced to his knees. Ignoring the pain, he struggled wildly, roaring.
"Kill him! What are you all standing around for? Kill him now!"
Situ Zhengnan was afraid, truly afraid. He immediately cried out to the four Body-Snatched Reincarnators for help. "Save me! Quickly, save me!"
"Halt!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The four Body-Snatched Reincarnators flashed into view instantly, each shrouded in swirling black mist, their vast Spiritual Power burning like raging flames. The four attacked from the east, south, west, and north, each unleashing a terrifying Black Fiend Fist strike against Gu Qingfeng's body. Yet, it was like mud sinking into the sea, failing to stir even a single ripple.
Witnessing this, everyone present drew a sharp, cold breath.
These were four Body-Snatched Reincarnators, Great Beings!
Each possessed the ability to annihilate Nascent Soul Old Monsters. Now, with the four joining forces, they still could not budge Gu Qingfeng in the slightest!
Heavens above!
First, the Thirty-Six Huage Young Lords, then the Ten Little Hidden Dragons.
Ling Feng's Five-Nine Unification.
Situ Zhengnan's Six Fortunes.
And now, the combined assault of four Body-Snatched Reincarnators still could not move him an inch.
Was Gu Qingfeng a god?
"As long as I wish to live, no one under heaven can kill me!"
Gu Qingfeng pressed one hand against Situ Zhengnan's skull, then gave a slight shudder of his shoulders and a faint tremor of his body. The four Body-Snatched Reincarnators instantly grunted, sent flying sideways like kites.
"If I wish to kill you, no one under heaven can save you!"
Gu Qingfeng's voice was light and calm. As his words fell, he exerted force through his palm!
Crack!
Situ Zhengnan's Transcendent Great Nature Colored Spirit shattered and vanished.
"Arrogant junior! Stop!"
One of the Body-Snatched Reincarnators roared, swinging his arms, churning his surging Spiritual Power like a roaring ocean, layers of profound mysteries crashing forth.
Gu Qingfeng did not look. With one hand pressing Situ Zhengnan's head, his other hand, still behind his back, gave a gentle wave, blocking the attack of the first Body-Snatched Reincarnator.
Whoosh!
The second Body-Snatched Reincarnator also swung his arms, unleashing torrential Spiritual Power, striking the back of the first, transferring all his Spiritual Power to him. Simultaneously, the third and fourth followed suit.
Everyone could see that the four Body-Snatched Reincarnators were using a Combined Body Power Transfer Secret Art, uniting the Spiritual Power of all four in an attempt to overwhelm Gu Qingfeng with an endless, powerful torrent.
Yet.
It was useless.
It had no effect.
Gu Qingfeng simply kept one hand pressing Situ Zhengnan's head, the other blocking the first Body-Snatched Reincarnator. No matter how powerful the combined Spiritual Power of the four became, it still could not budge Gu Qingfeng in the slightest.
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!
Gu Qingfeng did not look, never once from beginning to end. He simply brought his palm down on Situ Zhengnan's skull, one strike after another. After six strikes, Situ Zhengnan's three Innate Fortunes and three Acquired Fortunes were all shattered and dispersed. With the seventh strike, Situ Zhengnan's meridians were completely severed, his foundation shattered, his Nascent Soul withered...
"With the meager Spiritual Power of you four, you dare dream of suppressing me? Scram!"
Gu Qingfeng gave a slight tremor of his palm. The four Body-Snatched Reincarnators immediately vomited blood from their mouths and noses, sent flying to land on the ground, disheveled and wretched, faces deathly pale. They struggled to their feet, clutching their chests, vomiting blood continuously, not daring to take another step forward.
The crowd fell silent as statues, staring in horror.
The combined force of four Body-Snatched Reincarnators had failed to move Gu Qingfeng an inch.
Yet.
What truly stole everyone's breath was that Situ Zhengnan had just been crippled.
Completely crippled, more thoroughly than Ling Feng.
He was the direct disciple of the Nine-Hua Alliance Lord! And now, Gu Qingfeng had crippled him with just a few slaps.
Others not only lacked the capability, but even if they had it, who would dare harm a single hair on Situ Zhengnan's head?
Who didn't know that behind Nine-Hua Alliance Lord Hua Xiong stood the support of the Immortal Dynasty? Who didn't know that within the Taixuan Stele of the Nine-Hua Alliance, within the Taixuan Secret Realm, resided a mysterious Venerable whom even Samsara Reincarnators had to kneel before?
And now, Situ Zhengnan had been crippled.
Everyone knew what this meant.
"Gu... Gu Qingfeng, you... you... you dare... you dare cripple my... cultivation... I..." Situ Zhengnan was not dead, but he might as well have been. Kneeling on the ground, face deathly white, blood trickling from his mouth, he mustered all his strength to shout, "My master... will definitely... definitely kill you! Kill you—"
"Is that so? Then I'll be waiting."
Gu Qingfeng replied dismissively, then turned to look at the four Body-Snatched Reincarnators.
The four were severely injured, staring at Gu Qingfeng in terror, no longer daring to act. One of them pointed at Gu Qingfeng and shouted, "You... you actually... actually crippled Young Master Situ's cultivation! You... The Alliance Lord will never let you go! The Taixuan Venerable will not let you go either!"
"You have no idea of our Alliance Lord's true identity! You have no idea what kind of existence the Taixuan Venerable is!"
"You will regret this! You will definitely regret this!"
Seeing Gu Qingfeng remain silent, the four grew even more fearful. Knowing this person's terrifying strength, they dared not stay long. They wanted to circulate their Spiritual Power and flee, but their Nascent Souls had been severely injured and shaken by Gu Qingfeng's earlier palm strike. Forcing their Nascent Souls now could easily cause backlash, making matters worse. Just as the four were at a loss, Gu Qingfeng's utterly emotionless voice reached them.
"Will the four of you do it yourselves, or shall I?"
