When Bai Suzhen learned from Li Yao that there was another hidden force in the martial arts world, she couldn't help but frown.
She thought it over carefully, going through all the forces in the land, but couldn't think of any Jianghu forces that Li Yao should eliminate.
The land is vast, and there are indeed some forces that have not yet submitted to Wushuang City.
However, these forces are basically insignificant and should not be of any importance to Li Yao.
What kind of force is worth eliminating for Li Yao?
Bai Suzhen was very curious.
Li Yao did not hide anything from this and directly stated the name of the force: "Tianmen".
"Heavenly Gate?!"
Bai Suzhen frowned and thought about it carefully.
Finally, she shook her head and said, "I've never heard of this sect before. Where is it located? How powerful is it that it's worth your attention?"
Li Yao said, "Have you heard of Xu Fu?"
Bai Suzhen nodded and said, "Of course I've heard of him. He was a famous alchemist who served as the imperial physician to Qin Shi Huang. He also searched for the elixir of immortality for Qin Shi Huang. Later, he led three thousand boys and girls to Japan to search for the elixir of immortality."
Li Yao said, "Tianmen was founded by Xu Fu."
"What?"
Not only was Bai Suzhen shocked, but Duan Lang, Tie Kuangtu, and others were also astonished.
Bai Suzhen asked in disbelief, "Could Xu Fu still be alive? How is that possible?"
Duan Lang also exclaimed in surprise, "Yes, more than a thousand years have passed since the Qin Dynasty. If Xu Fu were still alive, wouldn't he be over a thousand years old? Could there really be an elixir of immortality in this world?"
Li Yao said:
"Xu Fu is indeed still alive. He once discovered the traces of the divine beast Phoenix, captured it, refined it into an elixir of immortality, and then consumed it himself, thus achieving immortality."
"Later, fearing that he would be discovered by Qin Shi Huang, he fled to Japan."
"Several hundred years after Qin Shi Huang's death, he secretly returned to the Central Plains under a different identity."
"After that, he joined various martial arts sects under different identities and acquired a lot of martial arts skills from each sect."
"Moreover, he married many women, and his descendants are scattered all over China."
"You probably don't know this, but the famous martial arts legend Wuming is one of his descendants."
Upon hearing this, Duan Lang's eyes widened. "What? The martial arts legend Wuming is actually a descendant of Xu Fu!"
This news is absolutely shocking!
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
Li Yao laughed and said, "Although Xu Fu had a descendant with extraordinary swordsmanship talent, his martial arts talent was the lowest level. His thousand years of cultivation was not as good as Wu Wudi's ten-odd years of cultivation."
"What?!"
Bai Suzhen and the others were stunned once again.
Xu Fu's thousand years of cultivation was no match for Wu Wudi's ten-odd years of training.
This person's qualifications are really poor!
Li Yao continued:
"However, although he was no match for Wu Wudi, he had accumulated over a thousand years of internal energy, as well as the martial arts of various sects."
"So, his strength is still quite good."
"Moreover, the Tianmen he founded has attracted many masters from the martial arts world, and its power is enormous, even surpassing that of the former Wushuang City and Tianxia Society."
After listening to Li Yao's account, everyone was amazed.
Unexpectedly, a huge force was hidden in this world, and they were completely unaware of it.
So how did the city lord learn of this secret?
Bai Suzhen's eyes darted around, and she quickly asked, "Did you learn these secrets from the Heavenly Cry Scripture?"
Li Yao thought for a moment, then said ambiguously, "More or less."
Bai Suzhen asked, "Where exactly is this Heavenly Gate?"
Li Yao looked north and said, "The far north."
At this moment, everyone suddenly realized that the Heavenly Gate was located in the far north, which explained why they knew nothing about it.
Upon returning to Wushuang Mansion, Li Yao ordered Tie Kuangtu to immediately begin crafting Tianzui and Tianjie.
In order to allow Tie Kuangtu to forge Tianzui as soon as possible, Li Yao handed over the Sword of Defeat to Tie Kuangtu.
Li Yao did not rush to Tianmen, but decided to rest for a while first.
Since arriving in the world of Fengyun, he has been traveling all over the world and has hardly rested.
Now, he has basically taken control of the martial arts world in China and no longer needs to travel around.
During the time he was away from Wushuang City, Bai Suzhen had basically finalized the rules for 'fairness and democracy'.
Bai Suzhen's ideas were indeed quite advanced; she came up with many ideas that had not yet appeared in this era.
However, some of her ideas are too idealistic and do not conform to the current situation.
Therefore, Li Yao made some modifications to the rules established by Bai Suzhen.
That day, Li Yao was cultivating in his study.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and smiled slightly, "A guest has arrived!"
Immediately, he moved and disappeared from the study, arriving on the rooftop.
A burly man, eight feet tall, was walking forward on the rooftop.
This person was dressed in gray-black armor, draped in a fiery red battle robe, and had long red and black hair that seemed to be in two separate sections, making him look like a demon god who looked down on all living beings.
"A divine general?!"
Such obvious attire allowed Li Yao to quickly guess the other party's identity.
Since Duan Lang became Li Yao's disciple, he probably hasn't had the chance to rescue the frozen general.
So, how did the gods emerge from the ice?
After much thought, this must be some kind of inertia in the world of Fengyun.
Even without Duanlang, someone else would have freed the god from the ice.
Just like Nie Feng and Hua Meng, Nie Feng and You Ruo, the entanglements between them did not disappear because Li Yao intervened in the plot.
"Well?"
The divine general, who was walking forward, heard Li Yao's voice and immediately turned around, only to find that there was another person behind him.
The general was startled. If Li Yao hadn't spoken up, he wouldn't have known that someone had appeared behind him.
What shocked him even more was that the other party actually knew his name right away.
The god stared intently at Li Yao and asked, "Are you Li Yao?"
He came here on the orders of Emperor Shitian to investigate the true nature of Wushuang City and to find out about Li Yao's situation.
"I didn't expect that before I even looked for Xu Fu, he would take the initiative to come to me."
Li Yao smiled gently.
"Xu Fu? What Xu Fu?"
The divine general was unaware that Emperor Shitian was Xu Fu, and he didn't bother to care.
Then, he licked his lips and said, "I heard you're quite strong, so your brain must be very delicious. Hehe, obediently offer up your brains so this god can enjoy them."
As soon as he finished speaking, he gathered a strange ball of lightning and fire in his hand and blasted it towards Li Yao.
"Ignorant fool!"
Li Yao shook his head slightly, flicked his finger, and several bursts of energy shot out.
With a few loud bangs, a ball of lightning exploded in the air.
At the same time, under a powerful finger strike, the god was sent flying backward, crashing into a stone table in the courtyard and shattering it into pieces.
"Hehe, you really do have some skills!"
The god sneered and instantly reappeared on the rooftop, saying, "You haven't disappointed me. I'm going to eat your brains."
After saying that, a ferocious expression appeared on his face.
At the same time, he activated the 'World-Destroying Demon Body'.
In the blink of an eye, his height increased by ten feet, his body turned pitch black, and he exuded a strange and malevolent aura.
Immediately, he roared, bringing with him a gust of wind as he swept towards Li Yao, his fists slamming down towards Li Yao's head, unleashing a burst of fiery and thunderous energy.
"A world-destroying demonic body, coupled with fire and lightning aura, this is indeed interesting!"
A smile appeared on Li Yao's face.
Immediately, he threw out both fists at the same time.
Two dazzling bolts of lightning shot out from Li Yao's fists, transforming into two ferocious silver lightning dragons that roared forth.
Two bolts of lightning struck down!
Boom boom boom...
Their fists collided, their energy surging endlessly.
The two of them were surrounded by a series of earth-shattering explosions, like thunder and lightning, which shook the entire world and even made the houses tremble.
The martial arts skills of the divine general can be summed up in two words: formidable.
The World Destroyer's body has extremely high defense and also possesses a slight immortality attribute.
The explosive power of the Fire and Thunder Qi is extremely strong. Although there are few techniques, they are all real killing moves. If you get hit by one, it will be fatal.
With its formidable physique and explosive power, the Divine General is a master of both offense and defense. Its only weakness might be its relatively low agility.
However, with the body of a world-destroying demon, the problem of insufficient agility can be almost ignored.
