Not only the Martial Saint of the Zhou family, but the Martial Saints of those martial arts families within the country were all old monsters.
It was said that the director of the Martial Power Arbitration Institute was a person from the Ming Dynasty, having lived for over three hundred years to date.
How terrifying was this?
Even some Spirit Communication Realm law cultivators could not achieve this step, could they?
Otherwise, how would they dare to be called Saints?
Such figures, obsessed with the martial path, had skills that had reached perfection and consummate mastery.
There were rumours that a Martial Saint once struck, splitting a great mountain with one sword.
There were also rumours that a Martial Saint once struck, cutting down a large force of nearly ten thousand people with one blade.
However, ancient martial arts families all restrained one another, and would not easily enter the mundane world, otherwise such power would cause chaos in the secular world.
But at this juncture, some ancient martial arts families could no longer sit still.
That was why they were restless and ready to move.
People said there was no true kung fu in the country, but this was not so.
It was simply because true experts no longer took action, nor entered the mundane world.
So-called qinggong, so-called sword qi, so-called internal power, did not necessarily mean they were merely legends.
They were mostly just held in the hands of ancient martial arts families.
They would not easily be passed outside.
What such families learned and practised was naturally not Wing Chun, Xingyi Quan, and so on.
Rather, they truly knew some legendary martial arts.
This was also the reason why Zhou Long was so arrogant.
Because he had the capital and qualification for arrogance.
Once the Martial Power Arbitration Institute emerged, no one in the martial path dared not obey.
Because regardless of whether you were a grandmaster or a Transcendence Realm expert, there was only a path to death.
Martial Power Arbitration!
These four words explained everything.
And at this moment, Luo Chen had actually provoked such a thing. Obviously this made people feel terrified and frightened.
Many people secretly shook their heads. It seemed Luo Chen had revealed his sharpness too much, been too ostentatious.
He had actually offended a Martial Saint. Now Luo Chen had just reached the peak and had not yet had time to smile, but I am afraid great disaster would follow next.
Shen Yuelan and Luo’s father looked at Luo Chen with worry. Although they knew Luo Chen’s strength, hearing about the Martial Power Arbitration Institute, about Martial Saints, they knew the other party’s background must be considerable.
They could not help but feel some worry for Luo Chen.
The happiest was Shen Tianjun.
He had originally planned to leave, but before leaving he had not expected to encounter such a matter.
Martial Saints, although very mysterious, he had also heard of them.
After all, he had paid attention to certain things before.
They were true controllers. Who in the present age dared to oppose them?
Luo Chen had caused the Shen family to collapse directly. Now suddenly people from a Martial Saint family came to the door. Shen Tianjun naturally felt delighted in his heart, with a sense of schadenfreude.
However, Luo Chen still shook his head, appearing extremely disdainful and completely unconcerned.
“If you kneel down and kowtow to admit your mistake to me right now, I can still consider letting you off.”
Once these words came out, Lin Hualong and others were all startled.
They obviously had not expected that Luo Chen would be so tough facing Martial Saints and the Martial Power Arbitration Institute.
Although Lin Hualong knew Luo Chen’s strength, perhaps comparable to a Martial Saint.
But if he provoked the Martial Power Arbitration Institute, that would truly cause huge trouble.
This would inevitably invite heaven-defying disaster.
Zhou Long obviously had not expected Luo Chen would say this either.
First he was stunned, then could not help but sneer and speak.
“As expected, a newborn calf fears no tiger.”
“You probably do not know what the Martial Power Arbitration Institute is, nor what kind of existence you are speaking to, right?” Zhou Long shouted.
“Then what about you?” Luo Chen retorted.
“Do you know who you are speaking to? Do you know what kind of existence you are speaking to?”
“Hehe, rumours outside say you have reached Martial Saint.” Zhou Long sneered.
“But is that possible?”
“Without a hundred years, no Martial Saint!”
“It is merely exaggeration from the outside. How old are you?” Zhou Long shook his head.
“Since you are so unappreciative today, I will properly teach you how to conduct yourself!” Zhou Long puffed up his chest with pride, then immediately struck.
His palm and fingers transformed, raising a gust of fierce wind. Instantly, visible internal force condensed in Zhou Long’s hand, finally actually transforming into a long blade.
Moreover, flames actually danced upon the long blade.
Obviously Zhou Long’s martial arts attainment was extremely high.
Li Jiu could achieve internal force taking form, but to have flames dancing while internal force took form, this point Li Jiu could not achieve.
This was not about realm, but caused by the martial arts cultivated.
Obviously the Zhou family was a Martial Saint family, naturally possessing some legendary martial arts.
For example, the technique Zhou Long used before their eyes was the legendary Flame Blade.
One blade struck out, flames coiling around, the power extremely astonishing.
And Zhou Long looked at Luo Chen with a sneer, instantly pressing forward. His whole person was like a shooting star, almost flying over while skimming the ground.
He was not a law cultivator, yet could achieve this step, further illustrating the extraordinariness of what he had learned.
This blade was fast as a startled swan, and ethereal without shadow.
Apart from Li Jiu, no one present could see it clearly.
“Quickly scatter!” Li Jiu gave a great shout. Everyone scattered in all directions at the first moment.
Shen Yuelan had seen Luo Chen fight before, so she pulled Luo’s father and ran to one side, without looking back.
“Boom!”
The entire Shen family manor buildings collapsed instantly. Even the ground sank several inches.
Luo Chen received this strike with one hand.
He wanted to test the power of this strike.
Obviously, the power of this strike was quite good, like a cannon shell.
Zhou Long suddenly furrowed his brows, immediately somewhat puzzled.
Daring to receive this strike head on?
Could he really be a Martial Saint?
But as he said, without a hundred years, no Martial Saint.
That was an eternal and unchanging truth. This point absolutely could not be wrong.
So it was absolutely impossible to be a Martial Saint.
Moreover, since they had already started fighting, obviously he could not care so much now.
So Zhou Long finished one blade, and another blade descended.
Flames danced across the sky. When this blade descended, firelight could be seen even in mid-air.
After all, Zhou Long was also a Transcendence Realm expert. It seemed his strength was even several points higher than Li Jiu’s.
Adding that what he learned was ancient martial arts, the power was naturally ferocious.
Flames were like an enraged dragon, instantly attacking. It was simply terrifying to the extreme.
However, Luo Chen furrowed his brows.
If this strike landed, the people behind him who had not yet had time to run would probably suffer misfortune along with him.
So Luo Chen no longer had the mind to test further, but sighed, then suddenly threw a punch.
A simple punch, very upright and balanced, without any flourish.
But this punch instantly landed on Zhou Long’s chest.
Zhou Long felt as if he had fallen from tens of thousands of metres in the sky, crashing into the ground.
His protective astral qi shattered. His entire back bulged outward. Then he spurted a mouthful of fresh blood. His whole person directly flew backwards.
His vision kept darkening, but he still raised his head with difficulty, looking at Luo Chen in horror. “You are really a Martial Saint?”
