Listening to the one-eyed man's words, the Bloody Monk showed no anger at all, his face still full of a cold smile: "Hmph, if he could die so easily, he would have died countless times already. Don't rejoice too soon, the fight isn't over yet!"

The one-eyed man didn't expect the Bloody Monk to be so calm, and couldn't help but frown, turning his head to look again.

After catching his breath, Lu Zian looked at Ding San from a distance, seeing no movement at all, he was full of surprise. He finally understood why Wang Tian'an said this white-haired Ding San was extremely strange; this seemed to be his most strange aspect. He didn't seem to feel pain, and even with such serious injuries, he could still stand. How could an ordinary person achieve that?

Taking a deep breath, Lu Zian tightly gripped the Overlord Spear, suddenly shouted, and rushed towards Ding San, thrusting straight towards Ding San's chest. Ding San's current state was a good opportunity; he was preparing to kill Ding San with one hit, eliminating future troubles forever.

However, the truth was far from his imagination. Just as the Overlord Spear was about to pierce Ding San's chest, at that moment, Ding San seemed to suddenly come to his senses and raised his hand directly to grab the Overlord Spear.

At this moment, Lu Zian felt as if his Overlord Spear was embedded in a stone crevice, unable to move forward any further. He quickly exerted force, wanting to pull the Overlord Spear back, but the result was the same: the Overlord Spear seemed firmly stuck in Ding San's hand, and he couldn't retrieve it.

Lu Zian's face changed dramatically; Ding San, despite being so heavily wounded and losing so much blood, still had such strength. How was this possible?

At the moment of his surprise, Ding San suddenly punched back. Lu Zian, who was trying hard to retrieve the Overlord Spear, hadn't expected Ding San to counterattack at this moment. By the time he saw Ding San's fist, it was already too late to dodge; he could only quickly shift his body sideways a bit, avoiding the vital chest and using his shoulder to withstand Ding San's punch.

With just one punch, Lu Zian's left shoulder was dislocated, and he retreated more than three meters backward, barely managing to stand firm.

Meanwhile, Ding San, holding the Overlord Spear, without the slightest hesitation, walked straight towards Lu Zian. It seemed as if the wound in his abdomen didn't affect him at all.

Lu Zian had never seen anything like this before; the blood on his body had stained his clothes completely red, yet he was fine, and he could still pursue him. At this moment, Lu Zian was also frightened by Ding San, retreating several steps, avoiding Ding San's offensive. Glancing at the Overlord Spear in Ding San's hand, a hint of unwillingness flashed across his face, but ultimately he bit his teeth, turned around, and fled in panic.

Lu Zian was well aware that if the fight continued, he definitely wouldn't be able to retrieve the Overlord Spear, and most likely, he would lose his life here. Therefore, he would rather give up the Overlord Spear to save his life!

Seeing Lu Zian run away, Ding San did not pursue him, just holding the Overlord Spear, continued walking forward along the direction he had just walked.

On the mountain top, the one-eyed man stared wide-eyed and open-mouthed as Ding San walked away, his face full of amazement and shock. Meanwhile, the Bloody Monk kept laughing heartily, looking extremely pleased.

"How about now?" The Bloody Monk laughed loudly: "I said, the fight isn't over yet, the outcome is uncertain. You think this disciple of the Heavenly Master is Invincible Under the Heavens, but let me tell you, Ding San has killed a thousand people, and is known as a killer demon, his strength far surpasses that of this so-called Lu Zian. If he kills ten thousand people, he will become an unparalleled killing god, possessing the power to challenge the Five Uniques. Hmph, go back and tell the Heavenly Master that in this Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, my Bloody Monk is definitely going to enter. No matter if you are the Seven Steering Committees of Hong Alliance or the Twelve Green Halls, those who dare to compete with me must first pass through the killer god!"

The one-eyed man frowned, glanced at the Bloody Monk, and suddenly said: "You... you couldn't have obtained those two items, right?"

"Murderer's Manual, Murderer's Knife!" The Bloody Monk laughed, and said: "What do you think I've been doing these fifteen years? I've spent fifteen years looking for this opportunity. Now, with this assistance, hmph, I want to see who's going to compete with me for this Heaven Earth Man Three Gates this time!"

The one-eyed man's face turned cold, staring at the white-haired Ding San below for a while, his eyes shining with sharpness, not knowing what he was thinking.

"There's no need to keep looking!" The Bloody Monk sneered: "As long as I'm here, you won't harm him a bit. When he becomes the unparalleled killing god, hmph, I will personally take him to Tai Island to seek guidance from the Heavenly Master. If the people of Twelve Green Halls are sensible, it's best to send those three maps to me first, so that in the future the Twelve Green Halls can continue to be at ease on Tai Island!"

The one-eyed man didn't say anything. He just cast a deep look at the Bloody Monk before turning around and leaving the mountaintop. The Bloody Monk didn't intend to stop him; he went straight down the mountain, following the white-haired Ding San from afar. Before Ding San fully possesses the strength of the Five Uniques, he still needs to protect him.

Fortunately, Ding San has the Murderer's Knife and Murderer's Manual in hand, so dying isn't that easy. After all, every time he kills someone, he must undergo a blood exchange, during which his internal organs rapidly grow, allowing previous wounds to heal. So, no matter how seriously injured he gets, it's hard for him to die, just like in Tianhui City, where he took several bullets but was completely unharmed, for this reason.

Meanwhile, after the one-eyed man descended the mountain, he directly pursued the injured Lu Zian. He had been punched by Ding San, dislocating his left shoulder and sustaining some serious internal injuries. However, to avoid the white-haired Ding San, he didn't dare heal himself on the spot and was preparing to find a place to treat his injuries.

Caught up by the one-eyed man, Lu Zian was greatly surprised, and asked in wonder, "Protector Ding, why are you here?"

"Your master doesn't trust you and has sent me to protect you secretly!" The one-eyed man said, as he walked straight over to Lu Zian, grabbed his left arm, and with a twist, reattached his dislocated shoulder.

The bone-setting was extremely painful, but Lu Zian could endure it, gritting his teeth to get through it, his face showing some discomfort, whispered, "Is Master afraid that I'm not a match for others?"

The one-eyed man furrowed his brow slightly and said in a deep voice, "Don't think your master doesn't trust your strength; he's afraid someone might disregard their status and attack you. In your age group, you are indeed unmatched. However, this is the Mainland, not Tai Island, and there are many senior masters. Furthermore, quite a few of them have grievances with our Twelve Green Halls. If those people disregard their seniority and attack you, a junior, you'd be giving your life away for nothing."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zian's face cleared up, and he frowned, saying, "Those senior masters, if I don't provoke them, I suppose they won't come after me. As for those of the same age, the so-called masters I've encountered are no match at all. However, that white-haired man earlier was strange. The punch he hit me with wasn't strong, yet I hit him countless times, and he showed no reaction. Why?"

"He's different!" The one-eyed man said in a deep voice, "With your current inner strength, even I would sustain internal injuries if I were hit by you that many times. But that white-haired man just now, he's not practicing martial arts. Not only you, even if I punched him a few times, he wouldn't get hurt."

"Ah?" Lu Zian was even more amazed, asking in wonder, "How could this be? He's not practicing martial arts, then what exactly is it?"

"Murderer's Knife and Murderer's Manual!" The one-eyed man glanced at Lu Zian and said, "You've probably never heard of these, but your master surely knows. Rumor has it that these came from the Heaven, Earth, and Man Three Gates. Holding these, every time a person is killed, there is a blood exchange and a rebirth, the power increases a level. Kill a thousand, and one becomes a killing demon. Kill ten thousand, and one becomes a Supreme Killing God. The power of a Killing God rivals mine and your master's!"

"Ah?" Lu Zian's eyes widened, stunned for a moment before asking in astonishment, "Murderer's Knife? Murderer's Manual? How can there be such strange things? Kill a person and get reborn each time, how is that possible?"

"It's a fact." The one-eyed man said, "Later, some investigated and found that the Murderer's Knife and Murderer's Manual are actually tools for Gu nurturing. It's just that this Gu nurturing method treats people like Gu insects. The Murderer's Knife and Murderer's Manual have the power to facilitate rebirth but also turn people into beasts. Actually, similar methods exist in the Miao Borderlands, where people are nurtured into Gu insects. However, the Gu insects they nurture aren't nearly as powerful. Yet those people possess formidable endurance and, like many Gu insects, are hard to kill, extraordinarily strong!"

Lu Zian's expression was surprised, and he was silent for a long time before sighing, "The Miaojiang Gu Techniques are indeed exceptionally peculiar!"

"Miaojiang Gu Techniques, along with the Heaven, Earth, and Man Three Gates, are claimed to be the most mysterious things in Huaxia." The one-eyed man said in a deep voice, "Especially the Miaojiang Witch; once she appears, she's invincible under the heavens. Luckily, most Miaojiang Witches won't leave Miao Borderlands. Otherwise, if Ye Qing got the help of a Miaojiang Witch, that would be disastrous!"

It seems the one-eyed man also fears the Miaojiang Witch. After all, the Miaojiang Witch truly is a figure who can lead an era. Even if a person enters the Heaven, Earth, and Man Three Gates and becomes a Supreme in some aspect, they can't overshadow the Miaojiang Witch!

"Ye Qing!" Lu Zian's face turned cold, and he said sternly, "I've heard this name more than once now, it seems quite famous. In that case, he's my next challenge!"

"These two days, you probably can't challenge him." The one-eyed man said in a deep voice, "You are quite injured; it's best to recover first. Besides, Ao Wuchang is going to Shenchuan City, and the Bloody Monk is also heading to Shenchuan City, it's too bustling over there, let's not join the fun."
