Lu Zhong was knocked back and injured due to Feng Liu's attack. He had not been prepared and had not had enough time to mount an adequate defense.
Feng Liu quickly turned around to see Zhou Fan approaching. She did not have any time to worry about Lu Zhong.
With her fan, she blasted out a wave of icicles, but Zhou Fan disappeared and reappeared right next to her.
Her fan, on the other hand, appeared where Zhou Fan had been.
"It doesn't just work on living beings. Isn't it truly magical?" Zhou Fan questioned as he kicked Feng Liu in the face, softly of course.
In those brief moments, Lu Zhong had gotten back up and silently attacked Zhou Fan from behind.
Zhou Fan used the teleportation art: replacement on Lu Zhongs spear, but he had expected such a thing and punched with his fist.
Zhou Fan once again disappeared, and Lu Zhong's fist punched his spear.
Lu Zhong clenched his teeth in pain as his fist turned red.
He turned to look at Zhou Fan, but all he saw was a piece of familiar looking hair. He was then hit in the back of the neck and fell unconscious.
Although using the teleportation art: replacement on a strand of hair would not usually work, Zhou Fan had cut it off of Lu Zhong's head before, making it a separate object. Otherwise, Lu Zhong's entire body would have been replaced with Zhou Fan's.
Feng Liu was the only one left, but Zhou Fan just picked her up and threw her away. She had already been defeated.
Zhou Fan smacked his hands and called Tong up. Tong was nervous, and his fears were right.
When he walked back to the group of spectators, he had a black eye and a fat lip.
"What a bully." He mumbled under his breath as he sat down.
Hei Ren came up next. Zhou Fan was looking forward to his disciple's strength. Although Zhou Fan had taught him a lot, he had made sure that Hei Ren knew the importance of self creation.
Although he had shown some to Zhou Fan, Hei Ren should have already created many of his own techniques.
As Hei Ren walked up to Zhou Fan, his body blurred before disappearing entirely. This was his divine physique.
Zhou Fan called it the invisibility divine physique, although the true name would be made by Hei Ren.
Zhou Fan's cultivation had been suppressed to the same level as Hei Ren's, the 3rd level of the inner world realm.
Due to that, even he could not sense Hei Ren, normally of course. If he truly tried, he would probably be able to, but he was simply sparring. It would be good to give Hei Ren the upper hand.
As Zhou Fan thought to himself, he suddenly moved to the left. Although he could not see Hei Ren, he had felt the hair on his body get touched, and instinctually moved.
While Hei Ren's divine physique would stop someone's sight, hearing, and smelling from sensing him, his attacks could still be felt, as could his body.
Zhou Fan shot a water whip at the spot he had been standing at, but Hei Ren had already moved.
As Hei Ren was indeed Zhou Fan's apprentice, Zhou Fan already knew how to completely counter Hei Ren's divine physique.
A bubble of water expanded out from his body and covered the entire area.
Hei Ren appeared outside the bubble and looked in.
"Cheater." He said before disappearing again.
Despite countering Hei Ren's divine physique, Zhou Fan did not expect victory to be achieved so easily.
If Hei Ren only had an invisibility divine physique, then Zhou Fan would have never accepted him as a disciple.
Invisibility was a terrifying power, but it was not the most terrifying power that Hei Ren held.
At the same time, 6 swirling dots of blackness appeared in the 6 directions of the water bubble.
All the water began to be sucked into the black holes at a fast pace.
Naturally, Zhou Fan was not going to sit and watch. He pointed his finger and a cage of light appeared, covering a black hole. He pointed his finger 5 more times quickly, and all the suction force coming from the black holes had stopped.
"Black holes are the natural nemesis of light, and as a result, they are both strong and weak against each other." Zhou Fan said to his disciple.
"Unfortunately for you, I have more Qi than you. After all, your divine physique takes quite the hefty price." Zhou Fan said.
As if agreeing with his statement, the black holes disappeared and the cages of light collapsed.
Hei Ren appeared far away again. "You're really not even going to let me use my strongest attack." He stated before disappearing.
"This is a real fight. I've shown leniency so far in order to see what you can do, and now it's time to suppress you." Zhou Fan said as he pushed his hands together.
"Pay attention, you should learn something." He said.
Then, a black hole extended from his body and grew quickly, covering the entire battlefield.
Although Hei Ren could not be seen or heard, he could be felt. Zhou Fan connected his senses to the black hole he created, and instantly found Hei Ren.
Zhou Fan disappeared, and an invisible Hei Ren appeared where he had stood.
"I'll steal your technique since you wanted to show it off so badly." Zhou Fan said.
The usually indifferent Hei Ren's eyes widened in horror as the black hole collapsed and exploded with a force that Hei Ren could not even begin to handle.
As a last resort, his body turned into what appeared to be black ink and fell down, disappearing.
His body shot up behind Zhou Fan, leaping out of his shadow, before a hand grabbed his neck and kicked him in the stomach, sending him to the spectators location.
Zhou Fan's gaze found Pangu, and his finger gestured for him to come over.
When Pangu first saw Zhou Fan gesturing for him to come over, he became nervous. It was clear just by looking at his face.
As he flew over, his face slowly changed until it seemed ready. He had not fought in a long time, causing him to get used to peace.
He had needed to close his eyes and remember the past before he returned to his old self.
Soon, he entered the battle area. Without hesitation, his body expanded.
It instantly reached the size of a planet, before expanding even further.
Eventually he reached the size of multiple solar systems put together. Even Zhou Fan was impressed.
The solar systems he was referring to were solar systems that had been expanded due to his mortal dao. Otherwise, his size may reach a hundredth of a normal galaxy.
Pangu grabbed his axe that had grown with him and covered it in sky Qi.
"Skybreaker." He shouted as his axe fell down immediately.
Zhou Fan observed his axe as it fell down. It was an attack much different than before. The last time he had seen it, Pangu had yet to even enter the inner world realm.
Now that he had, Skybreaker seemed much stronger. It even incorporated the power of space as it slashed down.
Zhou Fan could not help but re-evaluate his impression of Pangu.
'He holds a lot more potential than I had believed.' He thought to himself as a sword appeared in his hand.
Sword Qi covered his sword and he slashed it upwards.
Pangu's axe and the sword met in a cross section, similar to an X. Surprisingly, Pangu's axe easily shattered the sword Qi and continued downward.
When Zhou Fan's slash of sword Qi was slashed through, the fragments of it suddenly pieced back together and continued forward.
Pangu's axe would hit Zhou Fan first, but Pangu's eyes would suffer damage.
Pangu's mind moved as fast as it could, analyzing the possibilities of the battle. He then suddenly remembered the battle between Zhou Fan, Feng Liu, and Lu Zhong.
At the moment that everything clicked, Zhou Fan appeared in Pangu's hands, and Pangu's axe appeared where Zhou Fan had stood.
"It takes a lot more effort to replace something so big, but it is not too hard for me." He casually said as his sword Qi nearly blinded Pangu.
Pangu fell back while covering his eyes with one hand, and bringing his axe towards him with another.
Unfortunately, Zhou Fan had no plans of going easy on him. He raised his hands in the air and formed a long sword of Day Qi, Night Qi, and Sword Qi.
The sword extended in the air until it was even bigger in size than Pangu, though it was still as thin as a normal sword.
"Daynight Sword slash." Zhou Fan said as the sword fell down onto Pangu.
The arm covering his eyes was slashed through and his head was nearly cut through, before he instantly appeared away. Zhou Fan had saved his life.
"Finally." Zhou Fan said as he increased his cultivation to match Ying Xiongs and turned towards him. "It's your turn."
Ying Xiong flew over with his hands behind his back. At the moment that he entered the battle area, he instantly activated his divine physique and used all of his stacking powers to produce a cosmic buddha's palm.
Zhou Fan watched it fly towards and applauded.
"You never disappoint. Even now, you've increased in power. In fact, this attack has nearly reached the god realm in terms of power. Unfortunately, the power of the god realm is not so easily achieved." Zhou Fan said.
He then disappeared and reappeared near Ying Xiong. He had not used replacement, but had simply teleported.
He smacked towards Ying Xiong, but Ying Xiong had disappeared, reappearing not too far from Zhou Fan.
"I expected nothing less. Few have the talent to master teleportation." Zhou Fan said.
Although he had mastered teleportation long ago, when he was very weak, it was not a simple thing to do. Teleportation was one of the most complicated techniques in the universe, and very few people could ever learn it.
Usually, even the most simple requirement was a space Qi affinity, which was extremely rare. Ying Xiong did not have such an affinity, but managed to master teleportation regardless.
"Even you can underestimate someone." Ying Xiong said before smashing down with the buddha's palm.
Zhou Fan attempted to teleport away, but it felt as if a pair of hands were holding him down, stopping him.
"Space Lock." Ying Xiong said, arrogance appearing on his face.
Zhou Fan was impressed once again. Not only had he mastered teleportation, but he had also learned a way to prevent teleportation.
Zhou Fan was getting excited. Nobody besides Ying Xiong could possibly give him a good fight.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhou Fan decided to go all out, excluding the offensive and defensive use of Chaos Qi and his divine physique.
"Don't disappoint me." Zhou Fan said as his hands moved together.
"Chaos Qi Technique: Anti Qi Zone." Zhou Fan said.
Suddenly, all of the Qi within the designated battlefield dispersed, including Ying Xiong's attack. Qi simply stopped being present.
Ying Xiong looked at Zhou Fan with solemnity and surprise.
Cultivators, no matter how strong, would always cover their body with Qi for the purpose of lightening themselves.
Otherwise, their sheer weight would be too much for their surroundings to handle.
Even Zhou Fan had done this long ago, and had rarely removed the Qi since.
For many cultivators, and even Zhou Fan, this became an instinct. Even when using every last drop of Qi, a cultivator would naturally ignore the Qi which was lightening themselves, especially since the amount was so little.
Now, however, both Ying Xiong's and Zhou Fan's Qi were trapped within their bodies, unable to be used in any way, including lightening themselves. Their true physical strengths were revealed.
How could a cultivator possibly have a weak body? It never stopped getting stronger, but 99% of cultivators completely ignored it.
In an instant, Zhou Fan and Ying Xiong blurred, their fists meeting in between where they had stood.
