Chapter 143: Zhang Sanfeng VS Wang Baobao
No matter how strong Zhang Sanfeng was now, as long as he had not surpassed Wang Baobao, Wang Baobao feared nothing.
Moreover, even if Zhang Sanfeng’s strength was greater than his, Wang Baobao still possessed trump cards.
As long as he used those trump cards, no matter how strong Zhang Sanfeng was, it would be useless.
After that, Wang Baobao no longer hesitated. His figure flashed as he charged straight toward Zhang Sanfeng.
With a lift of his hand, the Vajra Palm was already unleashed.
The Vajra Palm was supremely rigid and supremely yang. With the reinforcement of Wang Baobao’s Nine Yang Divine Art and his terrifying inner strength, it instantly erupted with horrifying might.
A gigantic golden palm imprint appeared out of thin air and smashed toward Zhang Sanfeng.
Seeing this, Zhang Sanfeng’s expression did not change.
He lightly waved his right hand, and the Taiji Fist was quietly executed. In front of him, a massive Yin-Yang Diagram phantom suddenly appeared.
The moment the Tai Chi Diagram phantom manifested, it began to rotate continuously, and its terrifying power instantly collided with the Vajra Palm.
“Bang!”
A deafening explosion rang out as horrifying inner strength surged outward, causing the ground to tremble violently.
The mountain rocks before Wudang Mountain were instantly shattered by the terrifying inner strength of the two.
Immediately afterward, the two transformed into afterimages and collided in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, continuous “bang bang bang” explosions echoed through the void above—these were the sounds of Zhang Sanfeng and Wang Baobao constantly clashing and erupting with power.
The people below watched the two battling figures above, their expressions filled with shock.
They had never imagined that martial arts could be cultivated to such a realm.
In their eyes, Zhang Sanfeng and Wang Baobao were like divine beings. Every movement they made contained terrifying might capable of destroying mountains and splitting the earth.
After a short while, the mountain gate area before Wudang Mountain was directly destroyed by their terrifying power, leaving the ground full of craters and devastation.
But every battle had its end. After a fierce collision, a loud “bang” sounded as a figure was violently blasted away.
Everyone focused their gaze and saw that it was Wang Baobao.
At this moment, he was like a cannonball, smashed into a cluster of mountain rocks, instantly pulverizing them, with his entire body buried within.
For a time, dust and smoke billowed, completely obscuring Wang Baobao’s figure.
However, Zhang Sanfeng, who had just sent Wang Baobao flying, did not relax at all.
He knew that although that strike was powerful, it was still insufficient to seriously injure Wang Baobao.
Sure enough, after the dust dispersed, Wang Baobao quickly climbed to his feet.
His face was slightly pale, with a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, yet the aura around him showed no sign of weakening. His terrifying inner strength still surged violently.
Wang Baobao looked at Zhang Sanfeng with a solemn expression and said, “Zhang Sanfeng, you truly live up to being the number one martial artist. Through your own exploration, you actually raised your strength to such a level. I, Wang Baobao, cannot help but admire you.
“But if your strength ends here, then today you will surely perish here!”
Hearing Wang Baobao’s words, Zhang Sanfeng was slightly stunned.
Clearly, he was the one holding the upper hand, while Wang Baobao was at a disadvantage—so why was he still so arrogant?
Zhang Sanfeng said in a deep voice, “Wang Baobao, if you have any trump cards, bring them out. We martial artists revere strength. There’s no need for empty boasts.”
Wang Baobao’s face turned somewhat unsightly upon hearing this, and then he said sharply, “In that case, Zhang Sanfeng, let me show you my true strength!”
Afterward, Wang Baobao’s mind stirred, and a card instantly appeared in his hand.
The moment the card appeared, Lu Yu, Xiao Yan, and the others immediately confirmed it—this Wang Baobao was indeed a transmigrator, and one who possessed a system!
Lu Yu hastily transmitted his voice to Zhang Sanfeng: “True Person Zhang, be careful. This Wang Baobao is a transmigrator with a system. The card in his hand should be a treasure rewarded by the system. You must be extremely cautious!”
Hearing Lu Yu’s transmission, Zhang Sanfeng’s heart tightened. He then slowly nodded and transmitted back, “Everyone, rest assured.”
After taking out the card, Wang Baobao felt a trace of reluctance.
This was his only card that could enhance his strength. Once used, it could instantly raise his strength by an entire major realm, but it would only last temporarily for half an hour.
Once the half-hour passed, the card’s effect would disappear completely.
He had originally kept this card as his ultimate trump card, intending to use it if he encountered danger during his ascension to the upper realm, allowing him to turn the tables in a desperate situation.
Yet he had never expected that Wudang Mountain and Zhang Sanfeng—whom he had originally looked down upon—would force him to this point, making him use this precious card in advance.
Thinking of this, Wang Baobao could not help but feel hatred toward Zhang Sanfeng.
Damn Zhang Sanfeng, damn Wudang—wouldn’t it have been better if you obediently let me slaughter you?
You were nothing but native ants, mere NPCs. Why did you resist?
This filled Wang Baobao’s heart with extreme resentment. He had already made up his mind that after defeating Zhang Sanfeng, he would cruelly massacre the people of Wudang, letting everyone know the miserable fate of those who angered him.
After that, Wang Baobao no longer hesitated. He immediately clenched his right hand, and the card shattered instantly.
In an instant, his aura rapidly soared within the blink of an eye.
Sensing the change in Wang Baobao’s aura, Zhang Sanfeng’s expression slightly changed.
Wang Baobao had actually raised his strength by an entire major realm in such a short time. This terrifying might far exceeded Zhang Sanfeng’s expectations.
Originally already slightly inferior to Wang Baobao, Zhang Sanfeng now felt, under the pressure of the opponent’s aura, like a small boat surging on the sea, on the verge of being overturned and annihilated at any moment.
After completing his power boost, Wang Baobao indulged himself in feeling his strength and murmured, “What intoxicating power.”
Then he abruptly lifted his head and stared coldly at Zhang Sanfeng. “I admit that your strength is formidable, your martial techniques are refined, and your combat experience is abundant. Previously, I truly was not your opponent. But with my current strength, how will you respond?”
Zhang Sanfeng looked at Wang Baobao with a somewhat gloomy expression.
At that moment, a voice suddenly sounded by his ear: “True Person Zhang, should I make a move?”
He turned his head and looked. The one transmitting the voice was Lu Xueqi.
Among those present, there were not many who could truly defeat Wang Baobao.
Even an existence as terrifyingly powerful as Xiong Ba would only be evenly matched against the current Wang Baobao. Only Lu Xueqi could swiftly suppress him.
Zhang Sanfeng pondered for a moment, then directly nodded.
He had a clear understanding of his own strength. While he was invincible within the same realm, he truly had no means to overcome the gap of an entire major realm.
With Zhang Sanfeng’s consent, Lu Xueqi’s figure flashed as she appeared in front of him, calmly looking toward Wang Baobao.
Zhang Sanfeng then retreated to the side of the people from Wudang Mountain.
The Wudang disciples watching this scene felt as if they were in a dream.
Especially seeing Lu Xueqi replace Zhang Sanfeng in battle left them utterly incredulous.
Song Yuanqiao could not help but ask worriedly, “Master, is it really alright to let this Miss Lu take action?”
Zhang Sanfeng explained, “This Daoist Friend Lu is my friend. Her strength far surpasses mine. With her making a move, Wang Baobao won’t be able to stir up any trouble.”
Although Song Yuanqiao still harbored doubts, he nodded nonetheless.
Seeing this, the Mongol-Yuan Army side burst into mocking ridicule.
The Xuanming Elders sneered, “Wudang, Zhang Sanfeng—if you can’t defeat our young lord, just surrender already. Why bother sending a little girl out to die?”
“Zhang Sanfeng, you coward! If you can’t win, you push a woman out to fight in your place. You’ve completely disgraced the title of number one in the martial world!”
Faced with these jeers, Zhang Sanfeng remained unmoved, merely watching the battlefield calmly.
Wang Baobao was also rather surprised. He let out a cold laugh and said, “It seems Wudang truly has no one left, actually pushing such a little girl out to fight!”
Lu Xueqi replied coldly, “Enough nonsense. Are you fighting or not? If not, then just admit defeat.”
Wang Baobao’s face darkened. “Little girl, I’ll give you a chance now. Kneel and beg for mercy. Since you’re pretty, I’ll spare your life. If you don’t retreat now, don’t blame me for showing no mercy to delicate beauty!”
“You talk too much.”
Lu Xueqi said no more. Her figure flashed, as if piercing through the void itself, instantly appearing before Wang Baobao as she fiercely struck out with a palm.
Wang Baobao had originally looked down on Lu Xueqi’s strength, but at the instant she moved, an extreme sense of danger rushed straight at him.
Subconsciously, he activated the Protective Astral Qi of his Nine Yang Divine Art, going all out to defend himself.
