“In battle, one uses all means necessary, didn’t you say that yourself just now?” Chu Yun smiled calmly, the Drunken Snow Saber in hand, he finally revealed his true strength. His aura soared, like an invincible god of war.

Erlang Tian Jun stared blankly at Chu Yun for a long time, then suddenly laughed heartily, “Such acting skills, such schemes, I am impressed!”

But then, he pointed at Chu Yun and roared, “Damn it, who gave you that nickname? Little Tyrant?! How are you like Chu Bawang!”

Chu Bawang was a king of recent times. His style was unique. He fought the world with his fists, charging headfirst, dominating Xingzhou with no defeats. He was the king of kings. The Sea Dragon King died because of him, the Tian Qing King routed after three hundred moves and fled, the Di Xiong King was crippled by him, and the Mermaid King avoided his challenge by hiding on Mermaid Island.

In Xingzhou, where no Imperial level or Emperor level powerhouses appeared, he was truly invincible in the world. Regardless of any schemes or tricks, he only swept aside everything with his fists, using his unparalleled strength to dominate the world.

The world, because Chu Yun shared the surname Chu and had achieved remarkable feats – undefeated and victorious since his debut, repeatedly astonishing people and exceeding expectations. Thus, he was praised as “Little Tyrant.”

Erlang Tian Jun, despite not interacting much with Chu Yun, was ultimately influenced by the moniker “Little Tyrant.”

He didn’t know that Chu Yun’s feat of fighting ten thousand at once was achieved through deception. He would launch surprise attacks at night, taking advantage of the enemy’s panic, issuing orders and commands as if a large army were attacking. He tricked an army of tens of thousands, scaring them into fleeing in disarray, ultimately fighting ten thousand alone and becoming unrivaled.

In the Endless Forest, he also falsely claimed to be from the fourth school of Abacus Masters, using the title “Yi Master” to approach the Rouge Gate, not only benefiting greatly but also recruiting the entire sect under his banner.

Chu Yun was known as “Young Master Fire Fox” in his previous life, partly due to his Sky Fox heritage and partly because his mind was as cunning and slippery as a fox, causing many who were stronger than him to suffer silent losses.

However, after his rebirth, his strength advanced by leaps and bounds. When problems could be solved with force, he solved them directly. Coupled with the title “Little Tyrant,” he gave the impression of being a younger version of Chu Bawang.

In reality, this did not mean he couldn’t employ strategy.

“Little Tyrant” was just a title; Chu Yun remained Chu Yun. Sometimes, employing strategy could achieve the goal. Why not do so?

Chu Yun was by no means a man of integrity bordering on foolishness. His integrity was reserved only for friends and family. As for Erlang Tian Jun?

No.

He was a great enemy, a destined rival. Once an opportunity arose, he would kill him. Just as Erlang Tian Jun’s offensive was like a tidal wave, giving Chu Yun no chance to retaliate.

This was a mutual understanding!

“Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit. Erlang Tian Jun, this is the price of you underestimating me. Today, I will use you to consecrate my saber!” With Erlang Tian Jun heavily injured, how could Chu Yun let this opportunity pass?

He lunged forward with his saber, his strikes ferocious like a dragon, his saber energy boundless like the sea, and his saber light like flying snow filling the sky.

This time, it was Erlang Tian Jun who was at a complete disadvantage.

He wielded his battle halberd, desperately parrying Chu Yun’s fierce onslaught. Soon, he was in peril.

“This…” Witnessing this scene, the black-robed young girl’s mouth agape, utterly speechless. She never expected things to change so quickly.

It wasn’t just her; even her grandmother was surprised. “This brat is cunning!” the old black-robed woman thought rapidly. “He even fooled me. He was setting a trap from the moment we met at the inn. Every move was an act, building an advantage. Yet everyone took it for granted, completely unaware. Little Tyrant, heh, Little Tyrant… which blind fool came up with that name?”

Even the unfathomably powerful old woman felt a sense of absurd deception.

“This brat has a truly exquisite mind. No wonder he’s surrounded by so much beauty. However, I quite like this fighting style.”

In an instant, the black-robed old woman’s impression of Chu Yun underwent a complete 180-degree shift. From disappointment to admiration.

In a life-or-death battle, all means were naturally employed. Using stratagem was not to be faulted. True masters could utilize all their advantages. It all depended on whether you knew how to use them.

Some people’s use of strategy would backfire, their plans being turned against them. Others, by using it, could leverage their strengths and avoid weaknesses, thereby gaining an advantage.

Chu Yun was the latter.

He keenly perceived the strengths and weaknesses of both sides. Although Erlang Tian Jun had started traveling the world, three months was too short, and his experience was still a weakness. Thus, he used deceit to almost kill Erlang Tian Jun. However, at the last critical moment, the Jade Pure Heart Lotus protected its master, and the True Eye activated, allowing Erlang Tian Jun to dodge the fatal blow with all his might.

Despite this, he was still inevitably heavily injured, losing all his advantage and being completely suppressed by Chu Yun.

Boom, boom, boom!

Chu Yun’s attacks were like a raging tide, one saber strike after another, ceaselessly. Erlang Tian Jun, on the other hand, was struggling to cope, facing a moment of life and death.

This was a perfect reversal of the earlier situation, except the roles were reversed. However, unlike Chu Yun, Erlang Tian Jun still had the energy to employ other methods.

This was the benefit of his deeper Spirit, his harmony with Heaven and Earth, and his understanding of his own path.

Void Mirror!

He wielded the Tribulation Demon Mirror, a flash of light across its surface, and the next moment, he appeared far behind Chu Yun.

Sky Crane!

Chu Yun summoned the Sky Crane. It cried out to the heavens, flying around him. Chu Yun fed it a Heaven Burst Pill, causing its cultivation to soar, temporarily matching the Void Mirror.

No matter where Erlang Tian Jun teleported, Chu Yun could keep up. Their figures flickered in and out of the formation space, their movements like ghosts, their offense and defense fraught with danger.

The black-robed young girl watched intently for a while, feeling dizzy and nauseated. She suppressed the urge to look, and only then did she feel better.

“Chu Yun, you are the first to push me to such a desperate situation! However, the greater the danger, the more it ignites my fighting spirit. Chu Yun, I’ll show you my true trump card!” Erlang Tian Jun roared, engulfed by surging tricolored divine light.

He unleashed that mysterious Divine Path Technique once more, a magnificent aura erupting forth. His Great Sun Bright Armor erupted with dazzling golden light. His Starry Sky Drifting Boots exuded a deep blue starlight. His Divine Moon Crescent Halberd emanated a vast moonlight.

These three demon soldiers vibrated and resonated with each other, establishing an extraordinary connection, causing Erlang Tian Jun’s combat power to surge uncontrollably, showing faint signs of a desperate counterattack.

“Hmm? This Divine Path Technique…” The black-robed old woman’s expression suddenly changed, a flicker of shock in her eyes. She then looked up at the night sky. A mighty aura, like a dragon, was rapidly approaching from the direction of the inn.

“This aura… Wine King!” The old black-robed woman’s eyes narrowed, and she instinctively reached out to pull her granddaughter closer to her.

Across the night sky of the Great Desert, a rainbow light spanning hundreds of feet suddenly streaked across.

The light shattered, and a figure of immense power and stature, like a giant spirit god, descended from the sky.

He had a lion-like face, a broad nose, and a full beard. His muscles were like stone, his shoulders broad, and his arms thick, exuding a majestic and overbearing presence. He wore a blue robe casually, his chest unbuttoned, revealing a powerfully built chest and the black chest hair that spread from it.

“I never imagined Erlang Tian Jun would be the descendant of an old friend. Ten Thousand Poisons Queen, I will intervene in this battle.” His voice boomed like a bell. He had been watching the fight between Chu Yun and Erlang Tian Jun. His tiger eyes were filled with anxiety, but he did not act directly, instead addressing the black-robed old woman.

“Heh, if you say you’ll intervene, you’ll intervene? Wine King, I’m protecting this Chu Yun.” The black-robed old woman slammed her cane down, her voice sinister and chilling, causing a sense of dread. As they remained at a stalemate, the battle within the formation space reached its climax.

With the aid of the Divine Path Technique, Erlang Tian Jun swept away his passivity and attacked Chu Yun. His battle halberd danced, heroic and fierce, like an unrivaled general sweeping across the battlefield.

Chu Yun remained unfazed, wielding the Drunken Snow Saber, slashing left and right. Saber light crisscrossed Heaven and Earth, clashing head-on.

One side wielded the Divine Path Technique, the other held the Innate Drunken Snow Saber, their sharpness against each other.

Clang, clang, clang…

The continuous sound of weapon collisions roared like thunder, shaking Heaven and Earth.

“How is this possible?” After dozens of clashes, Erlang Tian Jun was shocked to see his Divine Moon Crescent Halberd completely shatter into countless fragments under the wild slashing and hacking of the Drunken Snow Saber.

“How can such a sharp battle saber exist in this world?!” Erlang Tian Jun’s eyes widened, and he exclaimed in disbelief. He was utterly stunned.

No one understood the power of the Divine Moon Crescent Halberd better than him.

It was a Tribulation Demon Soldier with nearly a million years of cultivation, made of excellent material, and his most trusted weapon. Yet, in direct combat, it had lost so miserably, completely defeated by the Drunken Snow Saber.

“Nothing is impossible!” Chu Yun roared, his aura surging, regaining the upper hand. He raised the Drunken Snow Saber high and slashed towards Erlang Tian Jun.

Jade Pure Heart Lotus!

As Erlang Tian Jun retreated, he was forced to summon this heart-linked Demonic Plant. The lotus flower turned gently, trembling slightly. Waves of light enveloped Erlang Tian Jun’s entire body, then spread out, affecting Chu Yun.

“Hmph, I’ve been waiting for this. Golden Jade Immortal Butterfly!” Chu Yun snorted coldly and summoned the Tribulation Demon Golden Jade Immortal Butterfly. The immortal butterfly flapped its wings, circling around him, forming a golden-green light shield for Chu Yun. The effect of the Jade Pure Heart Lotus was instantly greatly alleviated.

Erlang Tian Jun then released the Sky Dog.

The Sky Dog roared like a small mountain, opening its maw towards Chu Yun as if to swallow him whole.

Chu Yun summoned the Five Virtues Wheel, transforming into a Five Virtues Giant. The Drunken Snow Saber grew larger, and with a fierce slash, its light was sharp and unrivaled, striking the Sky Dog’s back.

Instantly, the Sky Dog howled in pain. The Drunken Snow Saber, combined with the Transformation Dao Technique, easily tore through its defenses and cultivation methods, leaving a massive wound dozens of feet long on its back. Gushing blood poured out incessantly.

With one strike, the Tribulation Demon Sky Dog was heavily injured!
