Ding Shian saw this, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes, but he was not afraid at all. He took a deep breath, tensed all his muscles, and prepared to face the power of the legendary Dan Devouring.

At this moment, Xu Xin suddenly smiled and said, "Brother Ding, I heard that you are the second best in the world in fighting. I really can't bear to see you feel frustrated. But since you insist on doing this, please be careful."

Hearing this, Ding Shimaan laughed out loud: "Brother Xu, you worry too much. As a martial artist, why should I be afraid of failure? Only through failure can we know our shortcomings and find the direction."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Xin had already slapped out with his palm. A red light burst out from his palm and went straight to Ding Shiman. Ding Shiman's face was solemn, and his whole body was surging with true energy, ready to withstand this blow.

However, just as the red light was about to touch Ding Shian, it suddenly disappeared. Ding Shian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized something. He looked at Xu Xin and said, "Thank you, Brother Xu, for showing mercy. I appreciate your advice."

Ding Shima stood in the middle of the field, his eyes were like torches, staring directly at Senior Xu Xin. He put his hands behind his back, took a slow step forward, and said in a clear voice: "I have heard of the name of Tang Sect Dan Shi for a long time. Today, I am not talented enough, so I would like to ask Senior for your guidance." After that, he raised his right hand slightly, with his five fingers slightly bent, as if he was performing some kind of spell.

Li Tong was watching closely from the side and could not help laughing: "This Ding Shiman is quite an interesting person. Could it be that his gesture is a provocation to Senior Xu Xin by giving him the middle finger?" As soon as these words came out, everyone around was speechless. Only a few people who knew the situation had a hint of surprise in their eyes.

Lu Lin coughed lightly and explained, "Ling Feng, you don't know. This is not a simple provocative gesture, but a Taoist finger gesture. Looking at Ding Shimaan's posture, I'm afraid he has already mastered it." Although he did not understand the specific function of this finger gesture, he could also feel the profound background contained in it.

The atmosphere in the arena became increasingly tense, and everyone knew that this would be a rare duel. Ding Shiman and Senior Xu Xin were both top masters of the time, and their duel was bound to set off a storm.

However, Senior Xu Xin did not seem to be in a hurry to make a move. He stood there quietly, his eyes deep, as if waiting for something. Ding Shiman was also not impatient, he slightly closed his eyes, as if he was regulating his breathing and concentrating his mind.

"I came here today just to witness the power of Dan Shi. If senior doesn't take action, how can I be willing?" Ding Shimaan slowly opened his eyes, with a hint of determination in his eyes.

Senior Xu Xin finally made a move after hearing this. He smiled and said, "Since you are so persistent, I will grant your wish." After saying that, he moved and came to Ding Shimaan.

Ding Shimaan was well prepared. As soon as he thought about it, he activated the Guan character technique in the inner cultivation method. As soon as this technique came out, his eyes seemed to be able to see through all illusions and reach the essence. I saw that the innate Qi on Senior Xu Xin's body was flowing endlessly, and there was a faint flash of Dan light.

"Is this the Dan Shi?" Ding Shi'an secretly marveled in his heart. He knew very well that the Dan Shi was a unique skill of the Tang Sect. Once it was unleashed, it would penetrate every hole and be impossible to defend against. However, Ding Shi'an was no ordinary person. He had already prepared a plan to deal with it.

"Brother Ding, be careful." Xu Xin's voice rang out in the night with a hint of coldness.

Ding Shian nodded slightly, his Qi surging, his whole body on alert. Xu Xin moved, and a murderous aura instantly spread. This atmosphere might just feel oppressive to others, but to Ding Shian, it was like a sharp knife at his throat, forcing him to concentrate.

"This... is this Dan Shi?" Lu Linglong exclaimed from the side. She looked at Xu Xin, her eyes full of confusion and puzzlement.

"What a terrifying aura." Li Tong frowned. His Golden Crystal Fire Eye Talisman was already activated, and he could see the twisted and terrifying atmosphere on Xu Xin. It was as if all kinds of negative atmospheres had piled up together, forming an indescribable sense of oppression.

Ding Shimaan took a deep breath. He could feel that Xu Xin’s Dan Shi had locked onto him.

The aura of this Dan-devouring was similar to Zhang Zhiwei's method, but they were completely different. Zhang Zhiwei's attack was like a natural disaster, irresistible; while Xu Xin's Dan-devouring was more like the extreme of man-made disasters, which made people fall into despair without knowing it.

"Here he comes!" Ding Shian shouted, and saw Xu Xin's figure flashing and approaching him. Ding Shian did not dare to be careless, and quickly formed a protective shield in front of him with Qi.

However, when Xu Xin was less than half a meter away from Ding Shian, he suddenly punched Ding Shian. Ding Shian's eyes focused, and he raised his hand to strike him in the air.

"Bang!" With a loud noise, Xu Xin's figure was knocked away by Ding Shimaan's palm and fell heavily to the ground.

"This...how is this possible?" Everyone exclaimed. They didn't expect that Xu Xin would be so "weak" that he couldn't even take on Ding Shimaan's move.

However, Ding Shimaan did not show any complacency. He looked at Xu Xin who was lying on the ground, and a complicated light flashed in his eyes.

"Brother Ding, you...why are you..." Xu Xin struggled to stand up, his face full of astonishment and unwillingness.

"Brother Xu, your Danxi is indeed powerful, but it is not enough to defeat me." Ding Shian said calmly, "It's not that I can't withstand your attack, I just don't want to be your enemy."

Xu Xin's palm strike was powerful, but it looked pale and powerless in front of Ding Shi'an. Ding Shi'an sneered and easily resolved the attack, his eyes full of contempt.

"Is this all your strength?" Ding Shian sneered, "How disappointing."

Xu Xin's face darkened, but he didn't show it. He knew that his martial arts skills were not as good as before, but the Danxi in his hand was his last trump card. He took a deep breath, gathered his internal strength, and prepared to launch this fatal attack.

At this moment, Ding Shian suddenly felt a chill. He looked down and saw countless transparent and colorless small holes on his shield light protective film, as if it had been eaten by countless tiny insects. He was startled and immediately realized that it was caused by Xu Xin's Dan biting.

"What a powerful Dan Shi!" Ding Shian exclaimed, "It can actually break my defense!"

Xu Xin sneered and said, "Ding Shiman, although you are strong, no one can escape from the Dan Devouring."

Ding Shi'an's face was solemn. He knew that what Xu Xin said was true. There was no medicine to cure the poison of Dan Shi. Once infected, it would be a dead end. He did not dare to act rashly and could only carefully observe the movements around him.

At this time, Zhang Chulan and the Tang Sect disciples also gathered around. They knew nothing about Dan Shi, and only thought it was a mysterious and terrifying martial art. They looked at Xu Xin and Ding Shi'an nervously, their hearts filled with fear and curiosity.

Feng Baobao was different, she seemed to be able to sense the existence of Dan Shi. She looked at the "raindrops" floating beside Ding Shi'an, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"What are these?" asked Feng Baobao.

Li Tong explained, "This is Danxi, a highly toxic gas that can corrode the human body." Feng Baobao nodded, as if she understood something. She looked at Ding Shian, with a hint of sympathy in her eyes.

Li Tong stood aside, watching the confrontation between Xu Xin and Ding Shi'an, but his heart was filled with ripples. He recalled the math problem he solved in elementary school, the speed of water flowing in and out of the sink. At this moment, Feng Baobao was just like the sink, and Dan Shi was the force of water flowing in and out, destroying and repairing at the same time. He secretly speculated that perhaps Feng Baobao would eventually be immune to the attack of Dan Shi.

"Brother Ding, why don't you give up your shield?" Xu Xin's words broke the silence of the battlefield. Ding Shi'an heard this, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, but he finally withdrew the shield light as he was told. The Dan Shi reappeared, but Xu Xin did not make any moves. Ding Shi'an looked solemn, and did not dare to act rashly. The invisible Dan Shi was as elusive as a ghost.

Li Tong narrowed his eyes. His "Fire Eyes and Golden Pupils" could see through all illusions. In his eyes, the Dan Shi was nothing more than a colorless and invisible Qi ball, floating in the air, as light as a raindrop. However, this light Qi ball contained the power to destroy everything. Ding Shi'an's shield light was as vulnerable as paper in front of it.

"How should I deal with this Dan Devour?" Ding Shiman thought to himself, but he had no good idea. The invisible attack made him feel unprecedented pressure, as if he was in darkness and couldn't find a way out.

Li Tong looked at Ding Shi'an's predicament and had a plan in mind. He knew that his earth-walking ability could allow him to drill into the ground and avoid the attack of Dan Shi. But he wanted to try his spatial transfer ability to see if he could directly transfer Dan Shi away.

"Brother Ding, don't worry." Li Tong's voice rang out on the battlefield, like a spring flowing through gravel. "I have a way that may help you out of this predicament."

When Ding Shimaan heard this, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes. He looked at Li Tong, waiting for his next words.

Li Tong took a deep breath, mobilized the Qi in his body, and prepared to use the ability of space transfer. He silently recited the formula in his mind, and his figure flashed, and he disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, he was standing next to Xu Xin.

"Brother Xu, can you lend me a hand?" Li Tong said in a low voice.

Xu Xin nodded, formed seals with his hands, and Dan Shi appeared again. Li Tong was delighted when he saw this, and he knew that his plan was about to succeed.

He took a deep breath, mobilized the Qi in his body, and used the ability of space transfer to the extreme. His figure flashed again, and the group of Dan Devour disappeared out of thin air. When it reappeared, it was far away from the battlefield.

Ding Shian looked at this scene with a look of shock in his eyes. He didn't expect that Li Tong actually did it.

Li Tong looked at Ding Shi'an's reaction and felt relieved. He knew that he had finally found a way to deal with Dan Shi. His mood went from nervous to relaxed, as if he had just experienced a great battle.

"Brother Ding, the battle is over." Li Tong said with a smile, his voice full of confidence and calmness.

Li Tong laughed, his eyes flashing with confidence: "Dan Shi? That thing is of no use to me." His voice echoed in the empty Tang Tomb, sounding particularly firm.

Ding Shimaan had been ready to compete with Li Tong, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but frowned, staring at Li Tong's figure, as if he was thinking about something.

At this moment, Tang Miaoxing's voice suddenly sounded, breaking the brief silence: "Today, I announce that I will step down as the head of the Tang Sect. Xu Xin will take over as the new head and change his name to Tang Xin."

The whole crowd was in an uproar when these words came out. Zhang Wang's face changed drastically, and he shouted angrily: "Master, what do you mean? How can you pass the position of the master to an outsider?"

Tang Miaoxing looked at him expressionlessly and said calmly, "Zhang Wang, do you know why Xu Xin was able to take over the position of the head of the sect?"

Zhang Wang was speechless for a moment and could only glare at Tang Miaoxing angrily.

Tang Miaoxing ignored him and turned to look at all the Tang Sect disciples present. He said in a deep voice: "From now on, no matter what happens, inner disciples are not allowed to attack outer disciples. But if anyone from Quanxing and the company leaves Tang Tomb without permission, they will be killed without mercy!"

Although his voice was calm, it revealed an unquestionable majesty. The outer disciples looked at each other, not knowing what to do. The inner disciples responded in unison, their voices uniform.

Zhang Wang's expression became increasingly ugly. He waved his hand fiercely and shouted, "Outer sect disciples, listen to my order. Send Zhang Chulan, Xia Liuqing and the others out of Tang Tomb!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Tang Miaoxing's eyes shot at him like a sharp sword. Zhang Wang felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet and penetrating his heart. He was startled and knew that he was no match for Tang Miaoxing. He could only suppress his anger and step aside.

The atmosphere at the scene became increasingly tense, like a taut string that could break at any time. Zhang Chulan, Xia Liuqing and others also felt this tense atmosphere. They stood aside silently, observing the development of the situation.

At this moment, a breeze blew by, dispelling the tension in the air. Li Tong smiled gently, walked up to Ding Shiman, patted his shoulder and said, "Brother Ding, it seems that we can't spar today. However, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the Tang Sect. How about we have another chance to compete?"

Ding Shima nodded, a hint of fighting spirit flashed in his eyes: "Okay, I'll wait for that day."

The two smiled at each other, as if they had forgotten the dispute just now. However, in the Tang Tomb, a storm was quietly brewing...

, the lights inside the Tang Sect were bright. Li Tong stood in the corridor, looking at the two people arguing, feeling helpless.

"Tang Miaoxing, how could you do this!" Zhang Wang's eyes were wide open, he grabbed Tang Miaoxing's collar, his voice full of anger.

Tang Miaoxing was not impatient, he gently brushed away Zhang Wang's hand and said calmly: "Zhang Wang, please listen to me."

"What did you say? How did you betray the Tang Clan and let a wolf into the house?" Zhang Wang was indignant, his voice trembling.

Tang Miaoxing shook his head, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes: "I don't want to do anything about Quan Xing. But the Tang Sect has reached a critical moment and needs new blood and new ideas."

"Xu Xin? That brat?" Zhang Wang sneered.

"Although he is young, he has his own strengths. Moreover, I have decided to master Dan Shi." Tang Miaoxing's voice was firm and deep. (End of this chapter)
