Supreme Warrior in the City

”Elder Ge!” The Second Elder finally couldn’t hold back and said anxiously, ”This abomination is too strong, your internal injuries have not healed. How about letting the Lord of Lingxiao Hall take this third strike for you?”

The Jade-faced Judge smiled, ”It’s fine, Second Elder. I’m not trying to kill him, so why use excessive force?”

As he spoke, the Jade-faced Judge continued, delivering a palm strike towards Beigong War God’s forehead.

At the same time, Beigong War God suddenly widened his eyes, and his expression changed instantly. Seeing the Jade-faced Judge’s palm coming at him, he quickly dodged, attempting to avoid the hit.

However, the Jade-faced Judge anticipated this and preemptively grabbed Beigong War God’s neck.

Their powers were evenly matched, but the Jade-faced Judge had the upper hand, and Beigong War God was gravely injured. This time, he couldn’t evade and was struck on the forehead by the Jade-faced Judge’s palm.

After delivering the third strike, the Jade-faced Judge stepped back, smiling as he took a bag from the Ghost King’s hand and tossed it to Beigong War God, saying, ”Brother Beigong, I always keep my word. Now, you can leave!”

The distant crowd was agitated, and the Second Elder hurriedly shouted, ”We can’t let him escape!”

The people from the four major sects watched Beigong War God nervously, guarding against his escape.

Beigong War God didn’t move; he clutched the bag tightly, glaring at the Jade-faced Judge, speaking word by word, ”You’re despicable!”

”Hahaha...” The Jade-faced Judge laughed, ”Brother Beigong, as the saying goes, all’s fair in war. I only said I’d strike you three times, never that I’d kill you. You gathered all your power to resist, yet you judged a gentleman with the heart of a villain. I only intended to seal all your power, that’s all. And you cooperated so well, gathering all your power for me to seal. What else could I do?”

Hearing this, the crowd below erupted in cheers, and the Second Elder was ecstatic. They hadn’t expected the Jade-faced Judge to seal Beigong War God’s power. Now they could capture him and force him to work for them, or use him to coerce Su Yang to appear!

Beigong War God remained silent, gritting his teeth, trembling as he took a step forward. Behind him, a small vortex appeared once more.

”Brother Beigong, opening the Gate of Life forcibly again?” The Jade-faced Judge said softly, ”You should know that opening the Gate of Life now would cost you your life. And you can’t even escape on your own, you understand that!”

Beigong War God didn’t speak, throwing the bag in his hand into the vortex after opening the Gate of Life.

The bag disappeared quickly into the center of the vortex, and Beigong War God staggered as the vortex vanished.

The Jade-faced Judge did not attempt to stop the entire process. Beigong War God was basically useless now, unable to escape. Sending his sister’s remains off, what significance did it have? They wanted Beigong War God himself; the rest was irrelevant!

”Brother Beigong, now you can be free of worry!” The Jade-faced Judge smiled, ”So, are you willing to submit to our Heavenly Court?”

Beigong War God said nothing, slowly retreating several steps before suddenly letting out a roar like a beast, his entire body trembling.

The Jade-faced Judge’s expression changed instantly, rushing towards Beigong War God.

But in the end, he was still a step too slow. A beam of light suddenly rose around Beigong War God, wrapping around him instantly.

Even someone as strong as the Jade-faced Judge was thrown flying by this light, unable to get close.

These beams of light, one after another, cocooned Beigong War God tightly, enveloping him completely.

The surrounding crowd watched helplessly as the light grew brighter, wrapping Beigong War God ever more tightly.

The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak had recovered quite a bit by now. His face filled with anger, he suddenly gripped a long blade, ready to charge forward.

”Absolutely not!” The Jade-faced Judge hurriedly stopped him, saying in a serious tone, ”These lights are all of Beigong War God’s power, and he’s releasing them all now. Beigong War God is now a cripple. But the surrounding power will protect him firmly. No matter how you attack, the force will rebound back to you. Unless your power is ten times stronger, you simply can’t break this cocoon of light.”

”Is that so?” The Peak Master halted, frowning, ”What kind of technique is this?”

”This should be Beigong War God’s unique secret technique, I’ve read some records before.” The Jade-faced Judge said solemnly, ”What he’s doing now is essentially starting the trial of the Life and Death Barrier. This situation means turning the body into a dead shell, with power condensed around him. Unless he can break through the Life and Death Barrier in this death-like state, he will remain dormant like this forever. After several decades, when the power is depleted, he will truly be a dead man!”

”Life and Death Barrier!?” The Peak Master frowned, ”What if he wakes up?”

”Then his strength will undergo a qualitative transformation, reaching an unprecedented level!” The Jade-faced Judge replied.

”What?” The Peak Master was anxious, ”Then how do we stop him?”

”There’s no way to stop it!” The Jade-faced Judge paused, ”But there’s no need to worry. If the Life and Death Barrier were so easy to break through, many would attempt it. This kind of barrier, among thousands or even millions, not one may succeed. Beigong War God, hmph, is basically committing suicide doing this!”

The Peak Master sighed with relief; such a small chance meant there was nothing to worry about.

”Moreover, we can bury him, set up an array around him, completely isolating him from the outside world. This way, unable to sense anything outside, he will never break through the Life and Death Barrier!” The Jade-faced Judge laughed softly.

”Can we do that?” The Peak Master was invigorated and immediately said, ”Then quickly arrange it, dig deeper, set up mechanisms around, and set an array so he can’t break through!”

The people from the four major sects did not delay, hurriedly starting to dig up the ground, intending to bury Beigong War God.

These people were indeed beaten down by Beigong War God; they also feared he might break through the Life and Death Barrier and wake up. Now that there’s a method to prevent it, how could they pass it up? Naturally, they would do everything possible to seal Beigong War God completely!
