Huang Shi and Bai Xinyue spent a few more minutes talking to each other about random things. The more important of which was the fact that Huang Shi had chosen to reveal the uniqueness of his heavenly physique to her, especially the fact that he could gather different types of "Sunfyre" within his body and use it in his future cultivation.
Bai Xinyue was very shocked when she heard this information; she even had the strange feeling that Huang Shi's Nine Primordial Sunfyre Physique wasn't very much inferior even compared to her Grand Dao Origin Physique, which should be impossible.
"Your Heavenly Physique seems very powerful even among other heavenly physiques of the same level... From my fragmented memories, I can make a guess that that kind of physique has never once appeared in either the lower realms or the divine realms, although I'm not sure…"
Huang Shi wasn't really surprised to hear this fact, as the system had already told him that any gift given to him from the wheel of fortune was unique and the only one present in heaven and earth; once received, it would be gone forever.
After this conversation, a few days had already passed. Currently, Huang Shi and Bai Xinyue had decided to find some place to rest, moving away from the Azure Lightning Valley and going back into the depths of the Greenwood Forest. At the moment, the both of them were standing outside of a makeshift log cabin, staring at each other with competitiveness.
However, it was clear that one of them felt more bitter about the situation than the other, as Huang Shi was currently face-first into the ground while Bai Xinyue was looking at him with a playful smile.
"Had enough for today, princess?"
The moment Huang Shi heard these words, his expression changed into a grimace as he spat a bit of blood into the ground before standing back up and readying his stance, raising his fists and spreading his legs wide enough to ensure that his body was stable.
"Like hell is it enough! One more round! This time, I'm gonna win for sure!"
With a roar, Huang Shi suddenly dashed forward, his body burning with golden flames and crackling with crimson lightning as he raised his fist and punched straight towards Bai Xinyue, who was still looking at him with a playful smirk.
The pressure that was currently being released from Huang Shi was like night and day compared to how he was before. In fact, he was so powerful that he felt like right now, if he faced his older brother, Huang Yi, in a one-on-one fight, he would destroy him in a single punch.
Unfortunately for him, he was not fighting Huang Yi at the moment; he was fighting the monstrous Bai Xinyue. And from what Huang Shi had learned over the past few days with his aching body, Bai Xinyue never loses.
As the fist was currently rushing straight towards her, Bai Xinyue simply raised her left palm and pushed his fist to the right, effectively neutralizing it before quickly ducking down and giving a punch straight to his gut.
BOOM!
Once again, Huang Shi trembled in pain, but this time, he forced himself to endure. The legs that he had stuck on the ground were actually buried deep enough to prevent himself from flying off the ground and lying down flat on his ass.
Huang Shi didn't let this opportunity slip as he quickly gathered golden flames and formed them into three massive golden swords, each at least 20 meters in length, that burned with the concentrated power of Sunfyre.

With a massive whoosh of displaced air, all three swords rushed straight at Bai Xinyue—two of them carving a path through the air from the front while the last one curved with lethal precision toward her back, creating a pincer attack that made her forehead break out in a thin bead of sweat for the first time today.
"Hmm? Interesting. Unfortunately, it isn't enough."
Bai Xinyue's lips curled into a quick smile filled with a hint of mischief. All of a sudden, a blinding silver light erupted from the space behind her, warping the atmosphere as it condensed into three identical, massive silver swords. Unlike Huang Shi's weapons, these blades were cloaked in flickering silver flames that gave of an intimidating and regal pressure.
"Go."
With a synchronized whoosh, the silver blades streaked forward to intercept their targets. The moment the gold and silver clashed, a violent, massive explosion of spiritual energy tore through the clearing. The collision sent a shockwave of gold and silver embers screaming in every direction, causing the very ground beneath them to shake and several nearby trees to snap like twigs and fall over.
"Not bad, your battle instincts are improving, bu—"
WHOOSH!
All of a sudden, Huang Shi gave a terrifying smile as the golden swords that had been neutralized by their silver counterparts—and had already broken down into embers of golden flames—started to join together and form 20 other smaller golden swords. All of these surrounded Bai Xinyue in a circular formation.

Bai Xinyue's pupils constricted as, without hesitation, she waved her hand. A symphony of silvery-white swords manifested in the air around her, matching the exact number of golden blades Huang Shi had conjured. With a confident flick of her wrist, her blades surged forward to intercept the pincer attack, her lips curving into a smug, triumphant smile.
I win agai—
The thought was cut short. All of a sudden, the swords that had been filled with only golden flames erupted with scintillating crimson lightning. The red bolts hissed and crackled with a terrifying pressure, supercharging the formation and causing the silver blades to explode one by one.
Huang Shi himself didn't waste a single heartbeat. He suddenly disappeared from his position, his form becoming a blur shrouded in flickering golden flames and jagged crimson lightning.
Using the explosion of the sword collision as a screen, he flickered through the chaos and appeared directly behind her. He lunged forward, throwing a punch with everything he had, his fist roaring with the dual power of his combined Sunfyre Qi.

Got you this time!
