Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques

"Hahaha! This time, luck is truly on my side. I've gained ten drops of Transformation Pill Liquid."

Fire Cloud Venerable was unapologetically candid.

He burst into hearty laughter.

Ten drops of Transformation Pill Liquid truly counted as a decent haul.

"Friend Lu, this opportunity is incredibly rare. Dozens of drops of Transformation Pill Liquid are spread over a wide area, but this must be the core region; there should be several dozen drops here."

"How about the two of us join forces to drive out the other Divine Power Martial Artists?"

"At that time, I'll only take thirty percent of the Transformation Pill Liquid!"

A glint of craftiness flickered in Fire Cloud Venerable's gaze.

His ambitions ran deep.

He actually wanted to ally with Lu Changsheng to drive out the other Divine Power Martial Artists and claim the majority of the Transformation Pill Liquid for themselves.

"Swish."

Lu Changsheng and Fire Cloud Venerable were conversing.

Many of the other Divine Power Martial Artists had already cast their gazes upon the two of them.

Some of those gazes carried a distinct hostility.

"You two friends wouldn't be thinking of monopolizing the Transformation Pill Liquid, would you?"

"There's no way we'll let you have all this Transformation Pill Liquid to yourselves."

"Hmph, even if it's Lu Zun and Fire Cloud Venerable, we can band together and take you on!"

The remaining dozens of Divine Power Martial Artists clearly understood the current situation.

Lu Changsheng and Fire Cloud Venerable wielded considerable power.

If they joined forces, who could stand against them?

Thus, they had truly united.

At least in stance, they were aligned.

Under no circumstances could Lu Changsheng and Fire Cloud Venerable be allowed to dominate the Transformation Pill Liquid!

"Heh, a flock of clucking chickens and barking dogs!"

"Brother Lu, whether it's thirty percent or even twenty percent, I'm fine with anything if you agree!"

Fire Cloud Venerable showed no signs of fear.

How many great battles had he endured?

Where would fear of a siege even begin with him?

He understood all too well the terror of Lu Changsheng's Spiritual Black Hole Divine Power.

There was simply no need to fear being besieged.

With him supporting Lu Changsheng by the side,

what could these other martial artists do, even if they joined forces against them?

Absolutely nothing!

Even Venerable Jing Yun seemed to adopt an expression of grave concern.

Lu Changsheng did not immediately respond.

He scanned the surroundings.

Then he spoke softly, "Fire Cloud Venerable, even if we join forces to drive out these Divine Power Martial Artists, I'm afraid you won't be able to take any Transformation Pill Liquid with you."

"You may even lose your life here."

Lu Changsheng's words caused Fire Cloud Venerable to freeze for a moment.

"Friend Lu, what do you mean by this?"

Could it be that Lu Changsheng wasn't even willing to part with a single share?

But even if he disagreed, why say something like that?

"Everyone, with all this commotion, you've all been drawn here. Do you think the Void Demons wouldn't also be attracted?"

"Those who want to leave, better leave now. Any later, and you might not get the chance to escape!"

Lu Changsheng's words echoed through the void.

"Void Demons?"

Everyone's hearts skipped a beat.

Right, Void Demons.

They had been so focused on vying for the Transformation Pill Liquid, eager to amass a large quantity,

that they'd forgotten this was the Void Spirit Mountain, a place teeming with fearsome Void Demons.

One or two Void Demons, or even a handful, wouldn't strike much fear into the assembled Divine Power Martial Artists.

They had their own techniques.

Whether through Divine Skills,

Treasure,

or sheer spiritual willpower,

they could handle some Void Demons.

Otherwise, they would not have ventured into Void Spirit Mountain.

But a handful of Void Demons was one thing, dozens or even hundreds of Void Demons was another matter entirely.

As they began employing various methods to sense the Void Demons,

someone immediately perceived their presence and gasped sharply.

"Look! Void Demons—Void Demons everywhere!"

"My heavens, how can there be so many Void Demons?"

"A vast swarm of Void Demons! Dozens of them! And there are still more, pouring in endlessly."

"Ahhh!"

At this moment, screams erupted.

An innumerable horde of Void Demons surged forward, descending upon some of the Divine Power Martial Artists.

The targeted martial artist surely had means to fend off Void Demons.

But against such a sudden and overwhelming influx of Void Demons, their spirit was immediately corrupted within a single breath's time. Their life force flickered out.

Dead!

A top-tier Divine Power Martial Artist just like that—dead.

And the number of fallen began to grow as more Divine Power Martial Artists found themselves caught in the maelstrom of Void Demons.

Fire Cloud Venerable's face turned slightly pale.

He exchanged a glance with Venerable Jing Yun.

"So many Void Demons... this is unheard of."

"At this rate, forget about the Transformation Pill Liquid; the real challenge is surviving until it forms."

"Retreat!"

Almost without hesitation, Fire Cloud Venerable and Venerable Jing Yun flew toward the exit.

They had to break out.

Being surrounded was not an option.

Once encircled by the Void Demons, even with techniques to fend them off, death was certain.

No Divine Power Martial Artist could remain calm and composed while facing hordes of dozens or even hundreds of Void Demons.

That was utterly impossible!

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

Yet, while many Divine Power Martial Artists fled in panic, some still rushed toward the area, unaware of the incoming danger.

On one side, people fled the chaos.

On the other, witless combatants charged headlong into it.

"Aah!"

"Void Demons! Help me—"

"Block them—"

The newcomers' expressions changed drastically the moment they entered the fray.

Their minds were instantly breached.

Their anguished cries echoed through the void.

Before long, they became lifeless corpses, crashing to the ground.

Within moments, over ten Divine Power Martial Artists had perished.

"What terrifying Void Demons."

"Thank heavens we escaped; otherwise, we'd be as good as dead if caught in that swarm."

"With so many Void Demons, not even boundless Transformation Pill Liquid is worth it."

"Where is Friend Lu? Why hasn't he broken out?"

At this point, Fire Cloud Venerable suddenly realized that Lu Changsheng was nowhere to be seen.

No, it wasn't that he was missing.

Lu Changsheng was still standing exactly where he had been earlier inside the encirclement.

Meanwhile, Fire Cloud Venerable and Venerable Jing Yun had already broken free of the Void Demons' siege.

But now, more and more Void Demons were converging.

Breaking out was no longer feasible.

"Friend Lu, you—"

Fire Cloud Venerable's face betrayed a trace of helpless urgency.

Over the past days, he had genuinely developed a friendship with Lu Changsheng.

Now that Lu Changsheng was caught in peril, Fire Cloud Venerable naturally felt deep concern.

Yet there was nothing he could do.

Void Demons were such fearsome entities that even Fire Cloud Venerable found them harrowing to deal with.

If he rushed back in, he, too, would be trapped.

At this moment, many onlookers witnessed it.

The countless Void Demons surrounded Lu Changsheng as though they had completely engulfed him.

But Lu Changsheng appeared oblivious to it all,

standing still and unmoving in his original spot.

"Lu Changsheng is done for."

"No matter how mighty his Infinite Divine Power may be, he's dead for sure."

"Lu Changsheng is reckless—risking his life for Transformation Pill Liquid amidst so many Void Demons. Who can withstand this?"

Many Divine Power Martial Artists shook their heads in disapproval.

They felt that Lu Changsheng was far too overconfident.

Facing such odds yet still braving a head-on clash with Void Demons—wasn't this tantamount to courting death?

But from beginning to end, Lu Changsheng's expression remained unchanged.

He even extended his hand with a casual wave,

pulling several Space Treasures from the corpses of a dozen fallen Divine Power Martial Artists below.

Contained within these Space Treasures lay Transformation Pill Liquid.

The very Transformation Pill Liquid those warriors had toiled for days to collect.

But now, with their deaths, their gains had fallen into Lu Changsheng's hands.

"Not bad, a few more drops of Transformation Pill Liquid."

A dozen corpses yielded only a few drops of Transformation Pill Liquid.

Clearly, these martial artists had terrible luck.

They hadn't been able to secure much.

After all, these fallen warriors were no Martial Venerables, and their weaker power meant they dared not conduct wide-ranging searches, reducing their odds of obtaining Transformation Pill Liquid.

But even a few drops were worthwhile to Lu Changsheng.

"The Void Demons should be almost fully gathered by now."

"It's time!"

Lu Changsheng muttered softly, his eyes glinting with sharp determination.

He hadn't broken free of the encirclement.

Because he had been waiting.

Always waiting for the Void Demons to converge.

"Buzz."

Without further hesitation, Lu Changsheng acted with a single thought.

From the void above emerged an enormous black vortex.

A Spiritual Black Hole!

The Spiritual Black Hole spanned a massive area.

In this region, it rampantly swept everything in its wake, dominating as it swallowed one Void Demon after another.

Each Void Demon was utterly helpless before the Spiritual Black Hole, consumed relentlessly.

All the while, Lu Changsheng made no additional moves.

He merely stood on the side, watching quietly.

This scene left all the surrounding Divine Power Martial Artists in stunned silence, their hearts rolling with thunderous waves of terror.

Fighting Void Demons could be done like this?

The impossibly terrifying, relentless Void Demons… just like that?
