I Grind to Martial Saint

The many Martial World Wanderers who heard this paid it no mind.

The mountain was so large that they could simply watch from the forests on either side without setting foot on the Cyan Cloud Ladder.

Such were Martial World Wanderers, naturally wild and rebellious.

If anyone dared to impose rules on them, they would retaliate in their own way.

Immediately, several Martial World Wanderers flickered into motion, darting into the forests on either side.

Seeing this, Lü Song did not stop them.

As long as they didn’t set foot on the Cyan Cloud Ladder, it was fine.

After leaving a few disciples behind, he led his men to follow.

He wanted to see just how far Han Yuan could get.

The Cyan Cloud Ladder was ancient, its steps uneven and covered in moss.

With the Dragon Sparrow Cloud-Splitting Saber on his back, Han Yuan ascended one step at a time toward the Cyan Cloud Sect’s main gate.

After several hundred steps.

A mountain of a man appeared before Han Yuan.

Seeing the man appear, the Martial World Wanderers watching from the forests on both sides grew excited.

A fight was finally about to begin.

Even Lü Zhengyun and the others standing before the main gate watched with solemn gazes.

They wanted to see Han Yuan’s true capabilities.

”Han Yuan.”

”I am an Elder of the Cyan Cloud Sect, Yan Jingshan,” Elder Yan said coldly.

”Yan Jingshan? Never heard of you.”

”Are you trying to block my path?” Han Yuan asked.

”No...”

Yan Jingshan shook his head and sneered, ”I’m here to send you on your way!”

BOOM!

Yan Jingshan stomped his feet, and a large section of the stone steps instantly shattered.

Yan Jingshan leaped into the air, using the height to his advantage. His right fist, gleaming with a metallic luster, smashed down toward Han Yuan with immense force.

The punch was ferocious, churning the air and creating a massive disturbance!

Expressionless, Han Yuan threw a simple, unremarkable straight punch.

The instant the two fists collided!

BANG~

A violent gust of wind suddenly erupted!

Yan Jingshan felt an unstoppable, terrifying force slam into him.

Under the impact, the skin and flesh of his fist and arm could not withstand the immense force and violently exploded!

His body was sent flying, crashing violently into the stone steps.

RUMBLE!!!

A large section of stone steps shattered on impact!

But Yan Jingshan’s Steel Stone Body was truly something; despite taking such a heavy blow, he was able to get back to his feet quickly.

Han Yuan was walking toward him, step by step.

But now, Yan Jingshan’s eyes were filled with terror.

The next moment.

Han Yuan appeared before him and threw a punch in a flash.

He went from stillness to motion in a single instant.

There was no technique involved; Han Yuan accomplished it all with his terrifying explosive power alone.

Yan Jingshan barely had time to react.

But, as if sensing the danger, he subconsciously activated his Steel Stone Body!

In an instant, the skin and muscles all over his body became as hard as steel.

Then.

SQUELCH!

As if it were made of paper, it was shattered by Han Yuan’s punch.

Han Yuan’s right fist plunged directly into Yan Jingshan’s chest.

The man’s heart violently exploded.

”You...”

Yan Jingshan’s face was filled with terror.

’He never thought that the Horizontal Training he was so proud of would be so utterly fragile.’

”Train harder in your next life,” Han Yuan said with a faint smile.

The next moment.

He pulled out his arm.

With eyes full of terror and unwillingness to accept his fate, Yan Jingshan collapsed, blood continuing to pour from the wound in his chest.

”One punch...”

”Han Yuan actually killed Yan Jingshan in a single punch!”

”He didn’t even use his saber!”

”His strength is terrifying! No wonder he dares to challenge the Cyan Cloud Sect all by himself!”

The Martial World Wanderers watching from the forests were all aghast, their eyes wide with shock.

”Sect Leader... it seems this Han Yuan... is not to be underestimated!”

An Elder’s throat went dry as he spoke.

He was well aware of Yan Jingshan’s strength.

For Han Yuan to kill him with a single punch... his power was truly terrifying!

”It seems one person is not enough to deal with him.”

”Do the four of you Elders have the confidence to face him?”

Lü Zhengyun looked to his side.

There stood four elderly men who looked nearly identical.

The four Elders were named Yi Dong, Yi Nan, Yi Xi, and Yi Bei. They were quadruplets, born with a natural telepathic link and skilled in Combined Swordsmanship. In the Martial World, they were known as the Four Changes Sword and had a considerable reputation.

It was said that when the four of them joined forces, even a Martial Artist at the peak of True Qi Perfection might not be their match.

”Sect Leader, rest assured. He is nothing but a petty thief.”

”When we brothers fight together, we will surely take his head and offer it in tribute to Elder Yan’s spirit!”

The eldest, Yi Dong, said coldly.

”Good!”

”Then I shall entrust this to you four Elders.”

Lü Zhengyun nodded.

After exchanging a glance, the four Elders moved almost as one, leaping toward Han Yuan with their Treasure Swords in hand.

Unlike Yan Jingshan, they attacked without a word.

SWISH SWISH SWISH~~

Four Treasure Swords left their sheaths at once, unleashing a startling killing intent.

One sword aimed for the eyes.

One for the throat.

One for the heart!

And the last aimed for Han Yuan’s armpit!

Their minds were linked, their swordsmanship was veteran, and their strikes were lightning-fast, all aimed at vital points.

In an instant.

The four of them were like spiders, weaving a web of Sword Qi to ensnare and kill their prey!

”A few old fossils, coming out to make fools of yourselves!”

Han Yuan snorted coldly and viciously drew his Dragon Sparrow Cloud-Splitting Saber.

WHOOSH~

The heavy blade whipped up a surging torrent of light, tearing through the air as he swept it outward!

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!~~~

With three sharp clangs, Yi Dong, Yi Nan, and Yi Xi all grunted as the force of the Dragon Sparrow Cloud-Splitting Saber sent them stumbling backward.

But Yi Bei’s blade traced a bizarre path, slipping past the saber’s arc and thrusting precisely toward Han Yuan’s armpit.

But Han Yuan snapped his left arm shut, catching the blade in his armpit.

With another burst of strength!

SNAP!

Han Yuan snapped the entire longsword in two!

Yi Bei’s expression changed abruptly as a sudden roar of thunder boomed in his ears!

Eight Extremes·Thunderstorm Slash!

RUMBLE!!!

The violent thunder shook the entire area, startling countless birds into flight from the forest!

A vicious, lightning-fast slash descended upon Yi Bei’s head.

SPLAT!

His body was cleaved in two, collapsing to the ground.

The bloody, terrifying sight made everyone who saw it recoil in horror.

The next moment.

Han Yuan’s figure flashed, and wielding the Dragon Sparrow Cloud-Splitting Saber, he charged murderously toward the remaining three!

Seeing Yi Bei die so horribly before their very eyes, Yi Dong, Yi Nan, and Yi Xi felt their eyes about to split with rage and grief!

”Kill him! Avenge our fourth brother!”

Yi Dong roared, his eyes bloodshot and his face contorted in a savage snarl!

With four, they had their Combined Swordsmanship; with three, they had their Sword Array!

The three of them unleashed the Three Talents Sword Array, creating a dense, chilling net of sword-light that threatened to dice Han Yuan into a bloody pulp!

”Kill!”

With a savage laugh, Han Yuan swung the Dragon Sparrow Cloud-Splitting Saber in a ferocious chop!

Eight Extremes·Shattering Wind Slash!

One Power Breaks Ten Thousand Laws!

The dense, chilling net of sword-light was instantly shattered by Han Yuan’s one slash!

THUD!

Han Yuan whipped his right leg around in a vicious roundhouse kick!

Yi Xi shrieked as the kick brutally shattered his spine. His body broke in two, and he collapsed to the ground, wailing in agony.

SWISH!

The next moment, two beams of sword-light struck from his left and right.
