Even though Jun Wulei was now a practitioner in the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm, he could not fight against his grandfather. He had just emerged from the sea of lava but was then forced straight back into it by Gao Hanshan. There was a splash and he disappeared without a trace.

“Senior Gao, why are you making things difficult for me?” Mo Wen asked coldly.

“You are the inheritor of the ancient Ming Cult yet you did not keep your skills hidden and practice cultivation. Instead, you came to such a dangerous place. I want to see what you’re made of.”

Gao Hanshan ignored Mo Wen’s questions. He reached out and a terrifying aura burst from his body. He did not hold back at all this time. The air within a hundred-meter radius twisted, binding Mo Wen tightly like a prison.

He took a step forward and appeared in front of Mo Wen. His palm reached out swiftly. It seemed as if the force behind it was weak yet the power behind it was great. It was sufficient to kill a practitioner at the peak of the Golden Elixir realm with a single strike.

Mo Wen would not be able to withstand such an attack without using the power of spiritual weapons. Gao Hanshan did not take any risks with his attack, unleashing all the power he had as a martial arts grandmaster.

Even though it was just a simple strike that did not make use of any martial arts techniques or treasures, it exerted a great amount of pressure on Mo Wen.

Five rays of light rose from Mo Wen. Mo Wen had been prepared when Jun Wulei told Gao Clan of his identity because he was afraid that they would act against him. He converted the spiritual stones in the medicine spiritual ring into spiritual power. The Five Beast Hoops emerged from Mo Wen’s sleeves and then gathered in a corner, turning into five great monstrous beasts. Each beast released a powerful aura which caused the sea of lava to roll.

Five golden chains emerged from the five beasts. The chains bound together, forming a golden web that covered Mo Wen. The glittering gold light made them look as if they were formed from real gold.

A look of surprise flashed in Gao Hanshan’s eyes. He could definitely see that the five different hoops making up the Five Beast Hoops were all top-grade spiritual weapons. When the five hoops combined, their power was equivalent to that of a profound level weapon. The youth had such a precious weapon that was rarely seen, even in great sects.

However, Gao Hanshan did not care. No matter how strong the weapon was, its power really depended on who was using it. The difference between their cultivation levels was like heaven and earth. How could a single treasure make up for it?

Indeed, when Gao Hanshan’s palms landed on the golden web, the seemingly strong golden light web only held on for less than a second before disappearing. The five bronze hoops also flew into the air.

His palm paused for a while before continuing towards Mo Wen. Even though the force behind it had decreased by 30 percent, it was still insurmountable to Mo Wen.

The Gao Clan elders were close by. They glanced at each other and sighed. It was commendable of the lad to be able to hold on for so long. After all, the difference in cultivation levels between him and the martial arts grandmaster was vast. They were not even of the same caliber.

They all knew that Gao Hanshan’s aim was to test the youth and he did not have any ill intentions. However, this test would determine Gao Clan’s attitude towards Mo Wen, making it very important to both parties.

Even if the youth was truly the inheritor of the ancient Ming Sect but did not have much talent, he would not go far in life. The Gao Clan would not acknowledge such a person.

Even when faced with pressure asserted against him by a martial arts grandmaster, Mo Wen remained calm. He had expected that the Five Beast Hoops would be unable to stop Gao Hanshan. Almost at the same time as the Five Beast Hoops failed, a purple gas and a ray of red light emerged from Mo Wen’s sleeves.

The purple gas turned into a small purple gourd. The moment it appeared, it shot a ray of purple light onto Gao Hanshan. The purple light pillar seemed to have the ability to freeze space. The entire heaven and earth quietened in one moment.

Gao Hanshan’s motions paused. Then, he slowed down slightly. Even though he had the cultivation levels of a martial arts grandmaster, he could not avoid the influence of the purple colored light pillar.

There was a flash of surprise in Gao Hanshan’s eyes. The young man had quite a few treasures and rare treasures at that. The purple bottle gourd was directly affecting him, seemingly able to ignore his cultivation levels. That was a little shocking. However, the power of the purple bottle gourd was not very strong. Gao Hanshan only paused for a moment. Then, his palm shook slightly and an invisible force pushed back against the light. The purple pillar of light could not withstand it and disappeared gradually.

The pause had decreased the power behind Gao Hanshan’s strike by a further 20 percent.

In the next moment, a ray of red light appeared. It turned into a fire dragon that collided fiercely with Gao Hanshan’s fist.

The fire dragon was a treasure that was the perfect choice for Mo Wen at this moment due to its strong attack capability. There was a loud crash and the air within a hundred-mile radius began to roll.

A jade ruler flew out. It was a top grade spiritual weapon that Mo Wen had gained from the underground hall. However, a weapon like this was not very effective against the martial arts grandmaster’s simple attack. Its effect was not as good as the purple bottle gourd, only weakening the strike by 10 percent.

Mo Wen had blocked the attack three times before reducing the power behind Gao Hanshan’s attack by 60 percent. However, the remaining 40 percent was still terrifying. It was almost equivalent to a full strength assault of an ancient martial arts practitioner at the peak of the Golden Elixir realm.

Gao Hanshan had already arrived before Mo Wen. He no longer had time to use any treasures to stop him. Gao Hanshan looked at Mo Wen with slight surprise. The youth had been able to quickly activate three spiritual weapons. It might seem simple, but it was difficult to seamlessly activate spiritual weapons interchangeably.

After all, warriors were not immortal cultivators. Warriors had to go through the process of turning spiritual stones into spiritual energy before they could use spiritual weapons. Also, the way warriors used spiritual weapons was not as refined as immortal cultivators.

In other words, even Gao Hanshan would have trouble using three different spiritual weapons one after another in such a short period of time. Mo Wen was also able to get the spiritual weapons to work together. That was even more difficult to achieve.

The old men from the Gao Clan did not consider the usage of spiritual weapons. They only nodded. Even though Mo Wen had not managed to fully block Gao Hanshan’s attack, his performance was outstanding. He had remained calm from beginning to the end and had acted strategically without fumbling.

Mo Wen could not block Gao Hanshan’s remaining power, but at least the strike which would have taken his life earlier would now only injure him severely. In light of the disparity between their cultivation levels, this was already considered a success.

Just as the elders were contemplating this, they were surprised to see Mo Wen take a step forward. He decisively interrupted Gao Hanshan’s attack.

Mo Wen did not look at all afraid. In fact, one could even say he looked brave and determined as if he was not facing a martial arts grandmaster but a warrior whose cultivation levels were below his.

The old men from Gao Clan glanced at each other. The expression in their eyes was similar to each other. Was the youth mad? Or perhaps he could not bear the pressure, which was why he was acting so wildly.

If it were them, they would definitely keep on defending themselves, protecting their body to minimize the damage to themselves. Perhaps they might even make it through the attack. Rushing up and welcoming the attack was as good as seeking death.

Energy worked both ways. Rushing up to the attack meant that the force of the blow would greatly increase.

Mo Wen had indeed moved quickly and attacked with both his palms. Starlight burst forth from his body. In the end, he seemed to have turned into a cloud of stars. Those looking on were all dazed, enshrouded in the stars and clouds.

The palms met. There was no sound of forceful collisions. Instead, it was exceptionally quiet.

At this point in time, Mo Wen was like a quiet lake. Gao Hanshan’s power seemed to have poured into the lake and sunk into the bottom of it.

“Absolute skill. How is that possible!” Gao Hanshan shook, clearly finding it impossible to calm down. There was shock in his eyes and he looked as if he had seen a ghost.

He had...his power had been forced down by a youth using the absolute skill! How was this possible!

The other elders from Gao Clan were also shocked. Their mouths hung wide open and they looked at Mo Wen dazedly.

They all knew about the absolute skill. They always used the skill to tease their juniors while training them. Based on their attainments of martial arts, they could even inhibit their juniors without using inner Qi.

The absolute skill was a symbol of going against martial arts attainment.

If Mo Wen was facing a Qi Nucleation realm warrior or an Embryonic Breathing realm warrior, they would not be surprised if he used the absolute skill. However, Mo Wen was facing the clan leader of Gao. He was a martial arts grandmaster! Who in the world could use the absolute skill before a martial arts grandmaster?

“Am I dreaming? What’s going on?” Jun Wulei had just emerged from the sea of lava and was shocked by what he saw. He rubbed his eyes incredulously, not believing what was happening in front of him.

He had been inhibited by his grandfather’s absolute skill before and the memory was still fresh in his mind. He had never considered that someone could use the absolute skill to inhibit his grandfather!

The power behind Gao Hanshan’s strike faded completely. It did not affect Mo Wen at all.

Mo Wen’s figure flickered and he slammed into the protective shield around them. He backed away several dozen meters. He had not been injured at all after taking Gao Hanshan’s full powered strike.

“Senior from Gao Clan, you are indeed powerful. You bully a junior with your high cultivation levels. Excuse me. I hope we meet again.”

Mo Wen was not stupid enough to stay there. His figure moved swiftly and he appeared several dozen meters away. Then, he started running. He could not fly because it would be impossible for him to escape from the martial arts grandmaster if he did so. Instead, he burrowed into the sea of lava decisively, prepared to use the method he had used earlier to flee.

Gao Hanshan’s cultivation levels might be higher than Bu Xingyi’s. However, the Invisible Talisman did not care whether your cultivation levels were high or low. No warriors would be able to break through the effects of the talisman.

“Rascal, come back.” Gao Hanshan was still immersed in shock. By the time he regained his wits, Mo Wen had already run several hundred meters away and was about to dive into the sea of lava.
