Chapter 253: Blade Meets Blade

The Jin Gang Sect Ancestor trembled. He couldn't tell if this was a tremble of fear or a shake of excitement, but he understood that once Xu Qing wanted to kill, then unless the other party had heaven-shaking methods, it would inevitably be a fight to the death.

Xu Qing's previous enemies were not extremely strong, but this time it was different.

The ferocity of that Sheng Yunzi, the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor had not only felt from afar, but occasionally heard the disciples of the Criminal Capture Department talking about it inside the iron slip, knowing that this person had peerless talent.

But these, he couldn't consider at this moment. He understood that he only needed to know one point...

With Demon Xu's personality, if he really died here, he would inevitably use all means before death, and self-detonating the iron slip was highly likely one of them.

"Because of this Sheng Yunzi, Demon Xu wants to kill; because of this Sheng Yunzi, Demon Xu wants to self-detonate me; because of this Sheng Yunzi, I have a life-threatening danger. All of this is because of Sheng Yunzi. Sheng Yunzi, you are harming me!"

」

Thinking of this, the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor's eyes instantly turned red, staring fixedly at Sheng Yunzi through the black iron slip.

The Shadow also clearly felt the subtle fluctuations of Xu Qing and the Jin Gang Sect Ancestor. Its intelligence had opened a lot, and after pondering slightly, it also became nervous.

At this moment, it was dusk. Xu Qing had been releasing poison without revealing any traces, and waves of colorless and odorless poison gas were scattered in the surroundings.

In fact, this was not real poison. Whether alone or mixed together, they were harmless, but once an initiator appeared to hook and transform them, then they could instantly turn into deadly poison.

But clearly, Xu Qing felt that these were not enough to erase the gap between himself and Sheng Yunzi. After all, what Sheng Yunzi displayed in the Seven Blood Eyes was a six-fire combat power. The terrifying degree of this combat power could already fight with the First Peak Elder.

Most importantly, Xu Qing didn't know if the six-fire combat power was Sheng Yunzi's all.

In addition, he didn't feel the trace of the other party's protector nearby.

"With this Sheng Yunzi's personality, it's impossible to let the protector hide, so it's highly likely that he was arranged to go out, handling other matters for him in the Huang Forbidden Zone?"

Xu Qing pondered for a moment. He felt that just in case, he needed to observe more and not act rashly. At the same time, he prepared to release more poison, so that his own chances of winning could increase.

At the same time, Xu Qing also opened five bottles containing small black insects and controlled them all to scatter.

It was just that after the small black insects flew out, the results fed back made Xu Qing's vigilance even deeper.

Sheng Yunzi's canopy above his head actually possessed some kind of protection, making the small black insects unable to penetrate immediately, and could only attach to it, waiting for an opportunity.

"My Life Lamp canopy can protect the divine soul... Sheng Yunzi's Life Lamp is to protect the physical body?" Xu Qing was thoughtful.

Just like this, time passed, dusk passed, and night arrived. As the bright moon appeared in the sky, the moonlight sprinkled on the earth.

Xu Qing, who was feeling the poison arranged in the surroundings and pondering in his heart which poisons to add, suddenly had his expression move.

He saw those cultivators outside the temple, the moment night fell, their expressions all revealed gravity, and some even had anticipation in their eyes.

This made Xu Qing surprised in his heart. He raised his head to look, his gaze falling on the one-fire Foundation Establishment old man in the distance.

Being looked at by Xu Qing's gaze, the old man's body trembled. After hesitating, he hurriedly stood up to bow to Xu Qing, and then spoke in a low voice.

"Daoist Xu, do you not know the mystery of this Tai Cang Dao Temple?"

Hearing this, Xu Qing's expression was as usual. In the information he obtained in the sect, there was indeed no mystery about what the other party said, so he nodded, waiting for the following text.

Seeing this, the old man didn't hesitate, nor did he hide it, informing him of the reason.

"Daoist Xu, this Tai Cang Dao Temple was as usual before, only in the last four years there have been some changes, so more people came here than in the past."

"This change is that whenever night falls, after the moonlight sprinkles into the Dao Temple and falls on the divine statue, the divine statue will reveal some dancing blade shadows."

"Everyone can see it, but until now, no one has been able to perceive it successfully from within, only that great person..." The old man's eyes swept quickly over Sheng Yunzi in the Dao Temple.

"He has come here for these days, and has gains every night. While we fail time and time again, we still have some expectations in our hearts. We don't ask for complete perception, even if we can perceive a little bit of fur, it is enough to improve our survival power."

The old man smiled bitterly.

Xu Qing was thoughtful, turning his head to look at the temple.

At this moment, the bright moon in the sky was bright, the moonlight covered the ground, and when it fell on the temple, there were also a few strands passing through the cracks in the temple roof, falling into the temple, shining on the divine statue.

In Xu Qing's attention, soon the divine statue in the Tai Cang Dao Temple slowly appeared some changes in the moonlight.

Faintly, the statue gained a sense of liveliness, as if it were moving; streaks of blade shadows materialized around it, flickering in and out of existence, appearing both real and illusory.

But as long as one blinked, everything returned to normal.

Xu Qing felt strange in his heart, continuing to gaze, and soon he felt the agility of the divine statue again, and felt the blade shadows around it.

These blade shadows were blurry in the eyes of outsiders, and only at a certain moment might there be a chance to see a little clear blade peak.

But in Xu Qing's eyes, because he had already perceived the Tai Cang Single Blade, these blade shadows were each very clear at this moment.

Furthermore, the moment he saw it clearly, an illusory Heavenly Blade manifested above his head!

This Heavenly Blade was exactly the Tai Cang Single Blade he perceived. At this moment, as it formed after manifestation, flowing light overflowed, as if undergoing some kind of change.

Looking carefully, one could see that this change was more in the degree of solidification.

The Heavenly Blade of the past was illusory, but at this moment, this Heavenly Blade started from the hilt, actually appearing a sense of solidification in the flowing light.

And this solidification was still spreading. One could imagine that once it permeated the entire blade body, Xu Qing's Tai Cang Blade would be promoted one step from the illusory of the past, infinitely approaching real existence.

This scene made the dozens of people around tremble one after another, and when one by one revealed surprise, Sheng Yunzi, who was sitting cross-legged in the Dao Temple, also had a Heavenly Blade similar to Xu Qing's appear above his head!

It was just that his Heavenly Blade was cyan, while Xu Qing's Heavenly Blade was purple!

Two Heavenly Blades appeared one after another. This scene caused gasps to come from the surroundings, many people's eyes contracted, and their breathing became slightly rapid.

It was really that Sheng Yunzi had revealed this scene since he came many days ago, and it had continued until now, and others were already used to it, but Xu Qing's appearance was also so peerless, they couldn't help but be shocked for a time.

Because they knew that this scene represented that both of them had perceived the Tai Cang Single Blade, and both had astonishing comprehension, having the possibility of successfully perceiving the second blade.

"This Xu Qing... worthy of being a Seven Blood Eyes Heaven's Pride!"

"They are both perceiving, and looking at the appearance, both are from virtual to real. Clearly, the moment it is completely solidified is when the perception is successful."

"It depends on who succeeds first. Once someone succeeds, the other, no matter how much they have perceived, will instantly be washed away, losing all forms of perception."

Having watched for so many days, and knowing the Tai Cang Dao Temple very well, the dozens of people discussed in low voices at this moment, but didn't dare to raise any crooked thoughts at this time.

Because perceiving the Tai Cang Single Blade didn't mean losing vigilance and the power to kill. If they dared to interfere, they would definitely die miserably on the spot.

In the eyes of the crowd outside the Dao Temple, the Heavenly Blades above the heads of Xu Qing and Sheng Yunzi were both emitting brilliant light, and it looked like Sheng Yunzi was clearly solidified to a greater degree, now reaching about 50%.

As for Xu Qing, he came late, and his perception time was not as good as Sheng Yunzi's, now solidified less than 10%.

Xu Qing raised his head, looking coldly at Sheng Yunzi. From these blade shadows, he saw that if he and the other party continued like this, Sheng Yunzi would definitely be one step faster in perception.

However, although the Tai Cang Single Blade was important, there were many Dao Temples, and only perceiving seven blades could be considered an Imperial-level cultivation technique, so for Xu Qing, whether the perception was successful or not didn't count for much.

He was considering whether to attack while the other party was perceiving.

"Although he has four Life Fires and possesses at least six-fire combat power, but... 120 Dharma Apertures, in fact, there is a huge weakness in itself!"

Xu Qing had studied the Heaven's Pride with 120 Dharma Apertures during his battles with the Seven Sect Alliance Heaven's Pride during this period of time.

"It's best to wait until I release more poison, so that the instant poison explosion will be more powerful." After pondering, Xu Qing withdrew his gaze. He had patience, decided to wait a bit longer, and looking at the other party's perception speed, it was impossible to succeed in a few days.

"In addition... although those protectors of his are not here, I still need to be fully on guard."

Thinking of this, Xu Qing temporarily suppressed the killing intent in his heart.

And just the moment his killing intent was suppressed, Sheng Yunzi in the Dao Temple turned his head, looking expressionlessly at Xu Qing outside the temple, especially looking at the blade shadow above Xu Qing's head, his gaze gradually becoming cold, as if looking at a dead person.

"Just a domestic chicken, yet daring to compete with a phoenix for brilliance!"

He didn't intend to raise him anymore. Since this Xu Qing dared to compete with him for opportunity, then just kill him. It wouldn't waste much time, and he could continue to perceive after killing.

As for the other party's Seven Blood Eyes sequence identity, Sheng Yunzi didn't care, because during the day, the slight red in the sky, he had already noticed, combined with some things he understood, he knew... the alliance had taken action against the North.

Now, it was the high-light moment of the alliance. If he killed a sequence, the Seven Blood Eyes wouldn't dare to make a sound.

His personality was that his thoughts followed his heart. Now that the killing intent in his heart had risen, there was no hesitation, suddenly standing up, and taking a step towards the outside of the temple.

The 120 Dharma Apertures in his body burned like a furnace, the four Life Fires in his body surged to the sky, the Life Lamp star above his head formed a canopy, emitting seven-colored light, and behind him, the cyan-bodied red-tailed strange bird Miemeng hissed at the long sky.

Six-fire combat power, at this moment, erupted heaven-shakingly, unstoppable, the momentum suppressed all directions, making the wind and clouds change color, as if countless heavenly thunders echoed here suddenly.

The crowd outside the Dao Temple couldn't react at all. They didn't have the qualifications to see the speed of six fires. Only Xu Qing here, suddenly raised his head.

He also couldn't see the speed of six fires.

After all, the gap between six fires and five fires was just like four fires suppressing three fires, the gap was too big!

But these surroundings were all his poison, and Sheng Yunzi's body was also filled with small black insects. All of this made Xu Qing able to perceive in an instant. ===== CHAPTER 254 =====
