"A junior like him can be suppressed with a flick of my hand, it's just that you're all too useless!"

The diminutive elder walked over with a terrifying aura erupting from him, finally ready to take strong action.

"At this stage, you still flaunt your seniority?" scoffed the Grandmaster. "We thought that even if he was young and had achieved the position of Grandmaster, his accomplishments wouldn't amount to much!"

"However, this lad is extremely terrifying, like a god or a demon. That ferocious Grandmaster was beaten to death by him alive. If we don't join forces to suppress him, we might be overpowered and killed by him!"

Ye Chen had proven his formidable strength with his splendid record of victories!

This diminutive elder looked down on everything and didn't take Ye Chen seriously at all, which was simply suicidal.

"As a Grandmaster Peak, even those old freaks on the Qingyun List would have to give way to me by three points!" sneered the diminutive elder. "You are at the late Grandmaster stage, a notable personality indeed, but you're not on my level at all!"

"Joining you to suppress a junior, I cannot afford to lose that face!" The diminutive elder's killing intent surged.

The strong are proud!

"What, what are you going to do!"

The compassionate Grandmaster was shocked as the diminutive Grandmaster came bearing down on him, his powerful presence not directed at Ye Chen but at himself.

"I, the Great Grandmaster, disdains to associate with you and naturally, I shall kill you first!" The diminutive elder burst with murderous intent, transformed into a humanoid beast, and lunged at the compassionate Grandmaster to kill him."

After you die, I'll personally take action to suppress the brat!"

"Damn it!" roared the Grandmaster. "My brother ranks high on the Qingyun List, you dare lay a hand on me, you're definitely dead, not even gods can save you!"

"You're going to die, yet you still have so much to say?"

"Just reconcile yourself to being suppressed by me, among those who died at my hands, there were Grandmaster Peaks, why should I fear a late-stage Grandmaster?!"

The diminutive Grandmaster was unmoved as he struck out with his palm, sending forth eighty-one palm shadows, martial might bursting forth, forcefully crushing the Grandmaster.

In the eyes of the diminutive elder, a late-stage Grandmaster was nothing more than a chicken, easily crushed!

"You old thief dare to strike at me, you will meet a horrible end, my brother will cut you to pieces to avenge me!" The Grandmaster fled desperately, for it was extremely difficult to even struggle for life under the hands of a Grandmaster Peak.

"Boom!"

Eventually, when all became one, the compassionate Grandmaster was struck by a punch. He flew out like a kite with its string cut, blood spewing from his mouth, and died on the spot.

"This little old man is really vicious!"

Ye Chen's eyelid twitched as the diminutive Grandmaster coldly and ruthlessly made his own decisions, exuding intense power while killing a Peerless Grandmaster within mere moments.

"I'll help you suppress a powerful enemy, and you give me your Secret Technique in return, as a thank you, okay?!"

The diminutive elder turned to Ye Chen with a kindly smile, like an old man selling candied haws, a stark contrast to the brutal murderer from moments before.

However, his eyes were filled with greed, clearly harboring ulterior motives.

"Has your head been kicked by a donkey?" Ye Chen said with a chuckle.

When the diminutive Grandmaster mentioned the Secret Technique, Ye Chen knew that his trump cards had been exposed. This person likely guessed his secret and coveted his Supreme Skill.

"You who are so young have already attained the position of Grandmaster, and after using that kind of Secret Technique, you can unleash extreme combat prowess and strangle a Peerless Grandmaster!" The diminutive elder's eyes shone with a ghostly light. "But do you think that is enough to defeat me?"

"I am not like those useless ones!" The diminutive Grandmaster coldly glanced at the two Grandmasters who had met their end. "I am a Grandmaster Peak, someone who doesn't need to bow his head even to a Land God!"

"Even if you were the Monkey King, you couldn't escape my Five Finger Mountain. Hand over the Secret Technique!"

Having said that, the diminutive elder displayed an air of superiority, all stemming from his extreme power!

A Grandmaster Peak, this was undoubtedly one of the strongest ranks in the world!

This diminutive elder's cultivation was unfathomably deep, terrifyingly infinite. Such a person, if placed in ancient times, could dominate a region and become king of the land!

Even when facing a Land God, such a person would not need to bow down!

Ye Chen's face darkened. The diminutive Grandmaster was right; even if he used his Secret Technique to exude brilliant combat prowess, he was just at the level of a Grandmaster Peak and couldn't sustain it in prolonged combat. To defeat a true Grandmaster Peak with this Secret Technique was indeed going to be extremely difficult.

"Hand over the Secret Technique, and I'll spare your life!" the diminutive elder said sternly.

Ye Chen was extremely powerful now and even though the elder could suppress him, it would require a series of fierce battles. If he could obtain the Secret Technique without expending any effort, that would be ideal.

"What a joke, you came here to kill me; would I just hand over the Secret Technique to you?!" Ye Chen sneered in anger. Secret Techniques were tempting, and the diminutive elder was bewitched.

"From the beginning until now, I haven't laid a hand on you and even helped you by killing a strong enemy. Shouldn't you repay me?" said the diminutive elder.

"You came here to kill me, now you covet my Secret Technique, willing to fight among yourselves to earn my trust. I may be young, but am I really that easy to deceive?" Ye Chen scoffed. "It's funny; you've lived for countless years, how can you have such naive thoughts?"

"You expect me to return a favor and hand over the Secret Technique just because you killed someone?" said Ye Chen. "I must say, you really are very stupid and naive!"

"You insolent junior!" The diminutive Grandmaster bellowed in rage.

"Besides, even if I gave you the Secret Technique, you'd still silence me, wouldn't you?" Ye Chen said with a sinister smile. "We're destined to not reconcile, enough talk, let's fight!"

Ye Chen could only maintain his tenfold increase in combat power for about fifteen minutes, and about five minutes had elapsed since he started using the secret technique; now he had only ten minutes left.

In these ten minutes, if the short Grandmaster didn't die, then he would find himself dead!

"Secret techniques can greatly boost combat power, but they're not immortal spells; they must have weaknesses!" the short elder said with icy eyes. "Such an invincible state of yours can't last very long, can it?"

"If I just delay for some time, you'll revert from dragon to worm on your own, why should I bother lifting a finger?" the short elder sneered. He was an old demon who had lived for countless years and was extremely knowledgeable, understanding that these kinds of power-boosting secret techniques had their flaws.

"Delay?" Ye Chen's eyes were frosty. "I'll just blow you up with one punch; why would I need to delay things with you?"

The short Grandmaster had seen through the flaw of his secret technique, but Ye Chen wasn't surprised at all. The other was a Grandmaster Peak, an old demon with extensive experience who had witnessed many extraordinary events. It was within Ye Chen's expectations that his opponent would know this.

"Blow me up with one punch?" The short Grandmaster's smile was strained, finding Ye Chen's words incredibly arrogant.

"No need for a punch; I could blow you away with a single breath!" Ye Chen spoke with unruly arrogance, not considering the Grandmaster Peak worthy of his attention, as if he was just a fly that Ye Chen could easily swat to death.

"Grandmaster Peak, come meet your death!"

Ye Chen advanced with large strides, his martial aura erupting in full force, like a ferocious god bringing calamity to the world.

"Ignorant junior, even if you have increased your combat power through a secret technique, you are no match for me!" the short Grandmaster said, laughing out of sheer anger. As a Grandmaster Peak, he was revered wherever he went. When had he ever been scorned like this?

"A Grandmaster Peak, even a Land God couldn't casually kill one. Young man, you are too arrogant!" Incensed, the short Grandmaster was ready to crush Ye Chen with his powerful moves.

Grandmaster Peaks faced challenges head-on without backing down. Once they retreated, not only would their reputation suffer, but the purity of their martial heart would also be flawed!

And, Ye Chen's words were just too conceited, too irritating.

"A punch that reaches the heavens, demons and gods alike shatter!"

Ye Chen had only the option to fight; he threw a punch, and his martial aura exploded thunderously, possessing the might to annihilate everything.

"Today, I will let you, a junior, understand that there is always a higher sky, always someone above you!"

The short elder's eyes were cold, showing no fear of Ye Chen's aggressive approach. He met Ye Chen's fierce punch with a palm strike like thunder.

"Boom!"

The instant their fist and palm collided, the entire floor trembled violently, as if it would collapse at any moment.

"So you can withstand a punch from me; not bad for a Grandmaster Peak," Ye Chen said, his voice unwavering as he suppressed the turmoil of blood within his body.

Ye Chen had an extremely resilient physique, and once his secret technique was activated, he could possess overwhelming dominance. But his tyrannical punch was actually stopped by the short elder, shaking him to his core and causing his blood to churn. It was a clear sign that he hadn't reached invincibility yet!

"Young fool, your reckless offense has filled me with rage, breaking the tranquility of my years of cultivation. I will make you wish for death over life!"

"Even if you possess the secret technique I desire, I will cripple you first!" the short elder said through gritted teeth. He was old and his body was starting to decay; maintaining his peak required prolonged cultivation and rest.

The short Grandmaster was revered wherever he went, almost like a Saint, never once angered by anything. But Ye Chen's attitude felt like an extreme insult. Whether it was a punch or some skill, it was all unabashed disdain, which made the short Grandmaster furious to the point of exploding.

If a Land God had judged him this way, he could accept it; after all, he hadn't taken that step beyond, and if he was looked down upon, it was because he was less skilled.

But what made Ye Chen think he could do it?

A mere mid-level Grandmaster using a Supreme Secret Skill to challenge him and look down on him was infuriating!

"All Streams Return to the Origin, A Palm that Sets the Universe!"

The short Grandmaster displayed divine might; his mastery was concentrated in his palms, and with one strike, he could create countless palm shadows that blurred the line between illusion and reality, horrifyingly formidable.

"You really have no shame, little old man. Is it that you just want to hit me with one palm? Talking about setting the universe, with such might and power, does your family know about this?" Ye Chen sneered. His form surged forward, not dodging or avoiding, as the fierce palm shadows struck him, but he continued moving forward as if it was nothing but a tickle.

"Pfft!"

Eventually, the violent palm force made Ye Chen cough up blood, but still, he moved forward, until he was just a foot away from the elder.

"How dare you!"

The elder was furious at Ye Chen's brazen approach.

"Dude, can you not be so cute, okay?" Ye Chen punched hard on the short Grandmaster's face, bloodying his mouth. "This is a life and death fight; you want to take my life, and I can't hit you?"

"What wouldn't I dare?" Ye Chen grabbed the short Grandmaster's arm, throwing another punch at his face. "Dude, you're too short; I have to bend down to punch you in the face. Can you grow a bit taller?"

"..."

"Fiend!"

The short Grandmaster retreated rapidly, spitting out a mouthful of old blood as Ye Chen's punch hit him squarely in the chest.
