A clear breeze blew half of the mist away from the peak.

Tiandao the Venerable One smiled and looked around, then he fixed his gaze on Fang Kaiyou and laughed cheerfully. "Kaiyou, go and experience Master Ou's great techniques. Remember—stop at where you should and don't hurt each other's feelings." Although he spoke calmly, there was a deep meaning behind his tone.

Fang Kaiyou was stunned at first, but he quickly rolled his eyes and understood what the Venerable One meant by "stopping at where he should". He responded with a nod, "Yes, Master."

As he tapped his interspatial bag with his right hand, a gentle white light was released from his palm. The light was not striking, and it gave off a warm feeling instead. Just as the light dispersed, an exquisite helmet could be seen on his hand.

Ou Yangming curled his lips into a smile and tilted his head a little to take a look. He saw that the helmet was completely red and carried a vague killing intent as though it had just been picked up from a pool of blood. Apart from that, 10 delicate peach blossoms were carved on the top of the helmet and arranged into a semicircle.

Fang Kaiyou moved his fingers swiftly, where only an afterimage was visible as he retrieved his Bloody Oath Suit.

He chuckled and said, "This is a Bloody Oath Suit, where every piece of equipment is a magic tool of High Grade Rank Four. They're my best pieces of equipment so watch out, Master Ou!" While the man spoke, he immediately put on the suit and unleashed his cultivation base as a top-grade Spiritualist. With the support of the suit, his momentum became extremely powerful.

Master Kurong looked at Fang Kaiyou with his eyes squinted and nodded.

He later shifted his gaze to Ou Yangming and smiled brighter. 'How will you surprise me this time?' He was somewhat looking forward to the battle.

Ou Yangming was neither in a hurry nor too slow, by which a special sense reverberated from him. Ever since he fathomed the True Intent Spear, every word and action from him coincided with the natural law, giving off an incredibly comfortable feeling.

Before long, Ou Yangming had put on his suit. By the time he equipped the helmet, the same words from before appeared in his mind. Star Trace Suit—he was already familiar with this, hence it was no surprise.

At the same time, an overbearing power was released from the Star Trace Suit.

As Ou Yangming focused, a luster as sharp as a blade could be seen in his eyes. He opened his mouth to breathe out, causing a heatwave to be released from his mouth. It was thunderous and frightful to the ear.

When he stepped down, he appeared to be insolent and domineering.

Consequently, the gravel around his shoes was stirred up, and they flew toward Fang Kaiyou.

Fang Kayou's eyes lit up because Ou Yangming's step technique was concise without any extra movement, which was no wonder he apprehended true path intent. When the man glanced at Tiandao the Venerable One, he was reminded again of needing to "stop at where he should". As such, he only increased his power to that of a top-grade Spiritualist in the late stage. A sound was suddenly heard coming from his wrist when he held a Heaven Unite Saber, which was a magic tool of High Grade Rank Three.

"Master Ou, please excuse me!" Fang Kaiyou turned his wrist and lifted his right arm to stir his Heaven Unite Saber forward. Whether it was his timing or his control over his Qi movement, he had achieved the thoroughly meticulous state. Indeed, the man was worthy of being a top-grade Spiritualist from Mount Wuzhi.

Nonetheless, instead of retreating, Ou Yangming charged forward at the speed of light in his Star Trace Suit. As he exhaled the murky air in his mouth, the veined patterns on the suit lit up like a shooting star that swept across the night sky with a tail.

Ou Yangming composed himself and entered the states of the integration of Heaven and man, as well as the thoroughly meticulous.

He speculated internally, 'Fang Kaiyou held back this time, so his power's only that of a Spiritualist in the late stage. If I rely on the Star Trace Suit's defensive power and the fact that my body has been tempered by Heavenly Thunderbolts, I should be able to confront him.'

As soon as he had this thought, he could not get rid of it anymore.

While he was thinking, Fang Kaiyou's Heaven Unite Saber had brushed past his right shoulder.

"Bam!" An ear-splitting sound of metals clashing echoed when the saber and the shoulder armor clashed.

At this moment, even the whistling wind at the peak seemed to have stopped. The 3 ladies opened their mouths in shock when they saw what happened. 'That's a hit from a top-grade Spiritualist. You're only an Intermediate Spiritualist, and yet you chose to confront him? Are you trying to get killed?'

During their journey from Mount Wuzhi to the 10,000 Beasts Sect, Tiandao the Venerable One had humbled himself as he told the 3 ladies and Old Craftsman about Ou Yangming in the Spiritual Realm, thus the ladies were aware of the young fellow's cultivation base at the moment.

Even the 10,000 Beasts Ridge's greatest powerhouse could not help but raise its eyebrow. It glanced at Yuqi the Venerable One and lamented, "It's getting harder for me to see through Master Ou. He has a lower cultivation base, but he still chose to confront his opponent. Ah, it's great to be young!"

"How can one be young if one isn't frivolous? How can one be a God-favored one if one isn't unrestrained?" Yuqi the Venerable One grinned and nodded in agreement.

The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One sighed after some thought. "This isn't frivolous or unrestrained; it's confidence—extreme confidence."

"Confidence," Yuqi the Venerable One uttered and looked solemnly at Ou Yangming.

At the peak, even Master Kurong was slightly startled. He sighed and thought, 'Good fella, you actually chose to go head-on against your opponent to display your suit's defensive power—how courageous. Even though you're young and frivolous, that suits my appetite. Having said all that, doing this means that you'll have to pay a price.'

Sure enough, before the master was still having that thought, he saw Ou Yangming stagger backward.

The white-robed Master Kurong stroked his beard. He seemed to have recalled something when he looked at Ou Yangming, thus he sighed and remarked, "Haha, you suffered a loss now, didn't you? Being arrogant always has a pr…"

Before the master could even finish the word "price", despite having seen through life and death, his pupils shrunk as he was appalled. "How's this possible?" He was in disbelief.

It was not that the greatest human powerhouse was inexperienced, but the scene was too shocking.

At this point, all of the veined patterns that covered Ou Yangming's Star Trace Suit lit up at the same time.

They directly absorbed the force from Fang Kaiyou's attack on Ou Yangming's shoulder and prevented him from declining.

"That was close!" Ou Yangming scoffed coldly. He stomped his right foot on the ground and stopped steadily as if there were numerous steel nails on the bottom of his foot.

Silence—dead silence, which was followed by an uproar.

"Hiss… What suit is that? How could it resist such a forceful power?" Tiandao the Venerable One exclaimed. He knew better than anyone that Fang Kaiyou's Bloody Oath Suit was not outstanding because of its agility or skills, but its power—exceptional power. Despite that, Fan Kaiyou was resisted head-on by the suit power of a "weak" Intermediate Spiritualist. How could the Venerable One not be taken aback?

As for the 3 ladies, they were dumbfounded for some time. When they came back to their senses, their eyes were filled with brilliant lusters.

The old macaque sighed. 'Master Ou, how many more surprises are you going to bring us?'

Fang Kaiyou's face reddened, and he had a strange look on his face as he never thought that his stunning move would end up like that. The man scoffed and clenched his saber's handle as he expressed, "Master Ou, I didn't think that your suit's so mighty. I won't be holding back anymore."

"Brother Fang, please enlighten me!" Ou Yangming replied to him.

Fang Kaiyou nodded and noted, "I'll be using a Suit Skill next so be careful, Master Ou."

Subsequently, he lifted his right arm and pressed his helmet hard, causing a red light to circulate on his Bloody Oath Suit.

In particular, the 10 red peach blossoms that were carved on his helmet absorbed the red light bit by bit. The red light soared into the sky and almost became substantial while numerous illusory images of the peach blossoms condensed in the air and spun around Fang Kaiyou. They eventually grew in numbers, spiraled in a wider range, and moved faster, making it seem like a peach blossom storm was stirred up from the red petals.

Fang Kaiyou raised his right hand and pressed down hard as he yelled, "Bloody Windstorm!"

With that, the storm that was stirred up by the peach blossoms approached Ou Yangming.

Wherever the storm passed, plants and gravel were sliced into fine bits.

Nevertheless, Ou Yangming remained calm. He spread out his left fingers, then he inverted his thumb and middle finger on his helmet as he shouted, "Starry Sky Traces!" Following his voice, the reticulate pattern on his body glowed. Countless runes were activated, and 5 visible green threads gathered in front of the young fellow. The threads kept changing and were as thin as silk, but an immensely sharp destructive power spread out from them. If the Star Trace Discharge was a flowing stream, the Starry Sky Trace was a surging river, and they could not be mentioned on equal terms.

Mao Jianbi was dazed as he watched. Back then, the Star Trace Discharge left him an unerasable impression. How formidable was the overall Suit Skill then? The great elder's eyes were fervent as he watched the battle without blinking at all as if he was the one performing the Starry Sky Trace.

The 5 green threads interlaced like duckweed in an ocean, and they kept deriving and changing.

From 1 to 10 and 10 to 100, they connected and entangled with each other to form an impenetrable green cloth to shroud the Bloody Windstorm. The entire process was unimaginably fast, such that the storm was surrounded in a flash.

"Click, click!"

The tremendously sharp Bloody Windstorm from before dispersed right away after being crushed by the green cloth top down.

It would be fine if that was all, but the long cloth, which was formed from green threads, accelerated in Fang Kaiyou's direction.

Fang Kaiyou shrieked because he felt a tingling sensation on his scalp due to the green cloth's sharpness.

Afterward, Fang Kaiyou communicated with his dantian and fully unleashed his cultivation base as a top-grade Spiritualist. The man kept chopping his Heaven Unite Saber in the air, causing numerous saber-lights to appear in front of him to fend off the sharpness from the "Starry Sky Traces". Concurrently, the powerhouse retreated quickly and looked like he was constantly running for his life. He thought to himself, 'Given the mighty power from Master Ou's Star Suit, how could Master still ask me to stop at where I should? This is simply… Simply suicidal!' He looked helpless, but he was even more speechless.

By the time Fang Kaiyou broke up the Starry Sky Trace's sharpness with brute force, he was completely pale. It was evident that it was not easy for him.

Even so, it was obvious which one between the Star Trace Suit and the Bloody Oath Suit was the better suit.

The fact that Ou Yangming previously used his suit's power to confront his opponent might become a legend, but once he performed the "Starry Sky Trace", everything would become a myth.

Yuqi the Venerable One looked at the old macaque. He shook his head and praised, "The Star Trace Suit's Suit Attribute is too strong; it almost pushed a top-grade Spiritualist to a dead-end."

The old macaque took a deep breath and uttered with a dry voice, "An unparalleled God-favored one." One could imagine how deeply in awe it was.

On the other hand, Master Kurong was very agitated when he stared at Ou Yangming.

All of a sudden, an unusual change occurred at the peak as Ou Yangming retrieved his spear from his interspatial bag.

As he looked in front, the reflection of his spear could be seen in his eyes as if the spear could break through every obstacle, barrier, and difficulty. Even if the sky was in his way, the young fellow looked like he could make a hole with his spear. This was an act of oppression as though he owned the world with his spear—this was true path intent.

"Stop!" At the spur of the moment, Tiandao the Venerable One shouted and intervened with his saber intent.

Fang Kaiyou exhaled deeply, and his back was already drenched in sweat. He seemed to have fallen into an ice house earlier, where every cell inside his body was shaking. At this point, he looked at Ou Yangming with fear.

'True path intent—is this true path intent? It's already so frightening before he even stabbed me with his spear. If he actually attacked me with it, how earth-shattering would it be?'
