Urban Immortal Cultivation Supreme

"Zhu Zizhen! Use the Five Extremes Thunder Sword to strike its chest!!" As he sent the red ancient creature reeling backward with the Qiankun Wudin technique, Zhu Bufan roared at Zhu Zizhen who was behind him.

Startled by Zhu Bufan's shout, Zhu Zizhen was first taken aback, then a trace of anger sparked within him at the audacity of Zhu Bufan ordering him around. However, anger aside, Zhu Zizhen was not sloppy in his actions. In this regard, he did well, fighting without reservation from beginning to end, unlike Lin Qingfeng who seemed to give his all but was actually holding back a great deal.

"Five Extremes Thunder Sword Thunder Extreme Demon Execution!!"

Gulping down some Returning Qi Pills in a hurry, the Five Extremes Thunder Sword responded and bombarded the red ancient creature's chest. Just then, the little fox on Zhu Bufan's shoulder also started to roll up vapor. Before the Five Extremes Thunder Sword hit the red ancient creature's chest, the little fox's deep blue eyes burst forth with an astonishing brilliance.

"Try this, the taste of water mixed with thunder!" Surrounding the red ancient creature, a ring of azure water suddenly enveloped it. Before it could struggle, the Five Extremes Thunder Sword struck its body, with the lightning going wild within the water, turning the normally single-strike might of Thunder Extreme Demon Execution into a torturous continuous electric shock. This change left Zhu Zizhen dumbfounded, for while he may have been decent in cultivation and talent, his knowledge of physics was nothing to boast about.

Seeing the red ancient creature twitching continuously from the electric shocks, its eyes filled with killing intent dulled slightly. Seizing this rare opportunity, Ye Gucheng, Lin Qingfeng, and Han Purple Moon all launched their attacks together, bombing the red ancient creature's back and forcing out a mouthful of blood, leaving a slight dent in its vastly sturdy spine.

"Bai Ling, let's show you the martial arts of Emperor Yan's little girl, so you won't get beaten up in a quarrel later." While his left fist was condensing the Blood Spirit Poison Fire, Zhu Bufan casually spoke to the little fox as if in jest. However, after speaking, his expression became grave, and then he violently swung his left fist, filled with tremendous power, at the red ancient creature.

"Emperor Extreme Fist Emperor's Fury Explodes Mountains and Rivers!!"

Like a roaring dragon, the Blood Spirit Poison Fire burst forth from Zhu Bufan's fist, hurtling straight towards the red ancient creature. When the Blood Spirit Poison Fire Dragon collided with it, a strong explosion ensued, blowing the red ancient creature into the air as if its thousand-pound weight was merely decoration.

BOOM!!

The massive body hit the ground, causing the entire floor to quake tremendously, but it was only then that the true power of the Emperor Extreme Fist fully erupted. Fiery flames burst from the chest of the red ancient creature with a loud boom, leaving a gaping hole where its chest had been. Such was the destructive power of the Emperor Extreme Fist.

Similarly, Zhu Zizhen and the others were also frozen by the destructive force of the Emperor Extreme Fist. They knew too well the resilience of the red ancient creature's body; legend had it that this ancient creature had the bloodline of Ancient Demon Beasts, giants from ancient times. Yet Zhu Bufan managed to blow away its chest with a single punch, leaving everyone's hearts trembling at such formidable martial arts.

However, shock aside, everyone soon recovered. At that moment, a figure darted into the cave and made its way to the head of the mutated red ancient creature. The figure then violently punched through its head and extracted a flashing, earthy-yellow inner core.

Seeing someone brazenly seizing the inner core, especially from a Mutated Demon Beast, everyone was instantly enraged. But when they clearly saw who the figure taking the inner core was, they stopped in their tracks – it turned out to be Kaiyang Peak's senior, the one who had previously urged them to leave swiftly.

"Third Uncle, why are you here?" Seeing the Third Uncle, Zhang Weiwei quickly pressed down on his injuries and asked, frowning with traces of blood still at the corner of his mouth. The Third Uncle flicked his finger, and a fragrant elixir was shot into Zhang Weiwei's mouth.

"Why here? Of course, to watch over you kids. Although the intent was to let you undergo tempering, if something truly happened to you kids, your masters would turn the heavens upside down, wouldn't they?" With a twist of his mouth, the Third Uncle continued: "Of course, speaking for myself, I only care about the safety of the little girls. As for you lot, getting beaten black and blue doesn't matter, as long as you don't die in the end, because if you don't die, you can always be saved."

Such blatant gender-based discrimination and teasing left everyone speechless to the extreme, and Zhu Zizhen's face twitched as he stepped forward and said, "If that's the case, what does senior mean by snatching the inner core? I'm afraid no matter how you look at it, the inner core won't end up in senior's hands, right?"

"Wrong, this item can only be taken by me, you all cannot. Among you, only one person has the qualification and cultivation to take this mutated inner core. I am kindly holding onto it for you first, so you don't fight to the death over it." Having said that, the third uncle displayed the inner core, within which one could faintly see wispy clouds of Qi flowing.

"A Mutant Pill?" Seeing the appearance of the inner core, Zhu Bufan immediately shouted out because even with the power of mutation from a Mutated Demon Beast, inner cores like this were rare, and Zhu Bufan had only ever obtained a Poison Fire Pill.

"You recognized it so quickly? It seems this indeed should belong to no one else but you." Hehe, with a chuckle, the third uncle tossed the inner core to Zhu Bufan, who caught it with one hand.

"Wait a minute!!" Seeing the third uncle hand over the inner core to Zhu Bufan, Lin Qingfeng could not sit still any longer. Although it's somewhat pitiful for a second-rank Demon Beast's inner core, he could still accept it, but if it's a Mutant Pill, he could not just stand by. The preciousness of a Mutant Pill was indescribable, its effect, as previously demonstrated by Zhu Bufan's Blood Spirit Poison Fire, was the best proof.

"Although the final blow was indeed struck by Zhu Bufan, why should it be considered entirely his achievement? Everyone present here gave it their all fighting the mutated ancient creature. Without us, could he have succeeded alone?" Standing out hastily, Lin Qingfeng stared intently at Zhu Bufan's hand holding the inner core, terrified that Zhu Bufan would store it in his Storage Ring.

"Hehe, others may be like that, but Lin Qingfeng, everyone knows how much effort you put in." Hehe, with a chuckle, the third uncle said, "The senior has been watching your battle from start to finish; I can see clearly who the real contributors are."

"I have no objections. If not for him, it would not have been possible for us to kill the mutated ancient creature so easily." Regarding Zhu Bufan taking the Mutant Pill, Ye Gucheng had no objections and coldly stated his thoughts.

"No! We also contributed. Although it's true that Zhu Bufan deserves more credit, but—" Zhu Zizhen was about to speak when Ye Gucheng's words had just finished.

"I don't oppose it, giving it to Brother Zhu Bufan is the best choice!" Zhang Weiwei, on the side, immediately spoke up upon hearing Zhu Zizhen, still dwelling on the attack they faced when entering the cave. Thus, as soon as Zhu Zizhen spoke, Zhang Weiwei immediately opposed him.

"There's no need for anyone to argue. It's given to him because his cultivation alone has reached the standards to absorb the Mutant Pill; the rest of you do not meet the requirements. Honestly, this trial has already been messed up because of him." Shaking his head, the third uncle paid no attention to the protests from Lin Qingfeng and Zhu Zizhen and spoke his mind.

"What do you mean?" The third uncle's words left the surrounding people stunned, but only Ye Gucheng gave a cold smile and said, "An individual from the Bone Forging Realm of the Dark Sect got involved, naturally, it's been messed up. The mutated ancient creature could probably be killed by him and that Demon Fox working together, it's that simple."

Ye Gucheng's remark left everyone in a stupor; they marveled at Zhu Bufan's strength but assumed it was because his cultivation technique leaned toward the demonic path since demonic path techniques are often more powerful in the early stages compared to the righteous path, and Zhu Bufan's evil, heart-trembling Blood Spirit Poison Fire, coupled with his overwhelming Killing Intent, corroborated their belief.

What they didn't know was that it was Zhu Bufan's attainment of the Bone Forging Realm that gave him such power. The ferocity of a cultivation technique and the strength of one's realm are entirely different matters. Zhu Bufan reaching the Bone Forging Realm at such a young age only means that his talent surpassed even that of Zhu Zizhen.

"How is that possible... Although I don't know much about the Dark Sect, I've never heard of one so young reaching the Bone Forging Realm." Staring hard at Zhu Bufan, Zhu Zizhen was in disbelief, unable to accept that Zhu Bufan, who appeared even younger, had reached the Bone Forging Realm before him.

"What you said is not wrong, I also haven't heard of such a person either. Who exactly is your master?" Challenged by Zhu Zizhen, the third uncle also asked. The Dark Sect has always seemed mysterious, and non-Dark Sect disciples, even if they are from the same sect, will not be able to glean much information. But if such an exceptional young person emerged, there should have been some word of it, much like Huo Ling, who was already known among the Ming Sect and outsiders. They were aware that there was such a talented girl in the Dark Sect. It was already impressive that there was Huo Ling, but now there appeared to be someone in their teens reaching the Bone Forging Realm, and they had not received any news.

"My teacher is Elder Huo." Hearing the third uncle's question, Zhu Bufan closed his eyes and spoke. Hearing the words 'Elder Huo', both Han Ziyue and Lin Qingfeng shuddered violently, with Han Ziyue seeming to have realized something, her phoenix eyes showing an expression of disbelief and utter shock, while Zhu Bufan revealed a hint of a cold smile upon seeing her reaction.
