Chapter 1713
"Huff... huff..."
When Chu Xiao finally came to his senses.
He had already escaped the inner demon illusion.
Before his eyes, the landscape was peaceful and serene.
Yet, Chu Xiao's body was drenched in cold sweat.
"That was just an inner demon..." Chu Xiao muttered to himself.
He absolutely refused to believe that Dantai Qingxuan was the kind of green tea bitch who would toy with people's hearts.
Could it be that the training in the Qingyang World was merely a game and an experience for Dantai Qingxuan? How could that be possible?
Chu Xiao consoled himself.
However...
He had to admit it.
From the moment he came to find Dantai Qingxuan at the Dantai Ancient Ancestor's birthday banquet, until now.
Dantai Qingxuan had indeed become increasingly distant toward him.
And toward that Jun Xiaoyao, she actually displayed ambiguous behavior.
In truth, that so-called inner demon was nothing more than the thoughts deep within Chu Xiao's own heart.
"No, this time during the training, I will prove myself to Qingxuan. I want her to give me a definitive answer."
Chu Xiao thought to himself, his expression resolute as he swept into the Saint Realm space.
Unknowingly.
Chu Xiao's feelings for Dantai Qingxuan had instead become an obsession and an inner demon, acting like a stumbling block.
Therefore, Chu Xiao had to obtain a definitive answer from Dantai Qingxuan!
Otherwise, Dantai Qingxuan would truly become an ineradicable inner demon.
The heaven's pride experts who entered the Saint Realm space were all undergoing the test of the inner demon illusion.
Some succeeded, some failed.
Those who failed accounted for at least half.
But there was one person who was almost entirely unhindered by the inner demons.
That was Han Pingan.
The reason was simple.
It was not because his temperament or Primordial Spirit was stronger than Jun Xiaoyao's.
Rather, he possessed a Heart of Vast Righteousness.
And since this place was the Saint Realm space, it was filled with the aura of vast righteousness.
Therefore, the so-called inner demon test was equivalent to nothing for Han Pingan, who possessed the Heart of Vast Righteousness.
"Yun Xiao, this Saint Realm space is my home turf; you are destined not to be my opponent."
Han Pingan stood with his hands behind his back, a calm smile on the corners of his mouth.
As time passed.
Those Academy disciples who had broken through their inner demons also began to explore the Saint Realm space.
The Saint Realm space, being a space created by the Saint Confucian, was extremely vast, so reaching the deepest part could not be done in a short while.
Jun Xiaoyao was not in a hurry, strolling between the mountains and waters.
He was experiencing the Confucian charm within the Saint Realm space.
"This Saint Confucian is quite a figure; the founder of the Three Teachings is indeed not that simple." Jun Xiaoyao clicked his tongue in admiration.
And at this moment.
He suddenly felt it.
Ahead, there was a mass of extremely vast energy.
Looking over, it was like a full moon.
"Is that the Source of Vast Righteousness?"
Jun Xiaoyao approached.
He discovered that this mass of energy, although only the size of a human head, was extremely pure, filled with a flavor of vastness, uprightness, and grandeur.
This was the Source of Vast Righteousness, an absolute supreme treasure for Confucian cultivators practicing Confucian divine abilities.
And the pure energy within it also held great attraction for cultivators who did not practice Confucianism.
Jun Xiaoyao reached out to pick it up.
This would be very helpful for his practice of the Heaven and Earth Vast Righteousness Canon.
Although with his monstrous comprehension, he had already grasped seven or eight-tenths of the Heaven and Earth Vast Righteousness Canon.
At this moment, a sturdy figure appeared in the distance.
Jun Xiaoyao turned his head to look and said indifferently, "Why, do you want to snatch this Source of Vast Righteousness?"
The person who arrived was none other than Gu Qingtian of the Ancient God Imperial Clan.
He was tall and burly, his muscles bulging all over his body, sturdy like a small giant.
Hearing Jun Xiaoyao's words, he shook his head and said, "I have no interest in Confucianism, nor do I have any interest in this thing."
"Then what are you here for?" Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently.
If you don't practice Confucianism, why come to the Jixia Academy when you have nothing better to do?
"I heard that Young Master Yun Xiao has a very strong physical body and defeated that Xiahou Zhen with one palm, so I want to spar with you."
Gu Qingtian clenched his fists, producing a crackling sound of bones.
Jun Xiaoyao glanced at Gu Qingtian.
He did know that Gu Qingtian was from the Ancient God Imperial Clan.
And the Ancient God Imperial Clan of the Boundary Sea did have some connection with the Ancient God Clan on the Immortal Realm side.
The Ancient God Clan was known for its physical strength.
And the Ancient God Imperial Clan was obviously even more terrifying.
But that was only in relation to other living beings.
Jun Xiaoyao was the exception.
Seeing Gu Qingtian's foolish appearance, he knew he was a simple-minded guy with well-developed muscles.
"Why should I spar with you?" Jun Xiaoyao smiled indifferently.
"This... eh... uh... because I want to spar with you."
Gu Qingtian thought for a long time before a sentence popped out of his walnut-sized brain.
Jun Xiaoyao laughed.
"That's boring. How about we make a bet?"
"How do we bet?"
"If I win against you, how about you temporarily become my follower and follow my orders?"
"Of course, if I lose, the same rules apply." Jun Xiaoyao said.
"Ah... this... my sister said that I shouldn't easily listen to others when I'm outside..."
Gu Qingtian, this big fool, was conflicted.
"Fine, then I'm leaving."
Jun Xiaoyao turned to leave.
"Hey, wait... that, alright." Gu Qingtian felt the power within his body.
As a member of the Ancient God Imperial Clan with the strongest physical strength, he had confidence in himself.
"But I have one requirement: we cannot use magic power, only pure physical strength."
Gu Qingtian thought his condition was very clever, and he grinned.
Divine abilities and magic power were considered a small weakness for the Ancient God Imperial Clan.
But the Ancient God Imperial Clan did not fear anyone when it came to physical strength.
"Can do." Jun Xiaoyao said.
"Then I'm attacking!"
Gu Qingtian thought he had taken a huge advantage.
He punched out directly.
It was the unique skill of the Ancient God Imperial Clan, the Ancient God Fist!
Jun Xiaoyao clenched his five fingers into a fist, and terrifying power poured out, causing the surrounding space to tremble.
If this were not the Saint Realm space, the void would have shattered in an instant.
Jun Xiaoyao activated the Divine Demon Great Strength divine ability.
This was the clan-protecting divine ability of the Divine Demon Ant Clan.
Although the Ancient God Imperial Clan was a strong clan in terms of physical strength.
The physical body technique of the Divine Demon Ant Clan was equally terrifying, claiming that a mere ant could rival a divine demon.
What Jun Xiaoyao unleashed was the Heaven-Opening Divine Demon Fist!
Not only that, but it also stacked the power of one hundred thousand Sumeru worlds.
Plus the invincible physical body of the Innate Saint Body Dao Fetus, which was already incomparably terrifying.
So, there was basically no suspense in this clash of fists.
Crack!
A crisp sound of bone cracking rang out.
Gu Qingtian's arm that threw the punch was directly broken!
You have to know, this was the Ancient God Imperial Clan, known for their physical strength among the eight great imperial clans!
However, there was no expression of pain on Gu Qingtian's face.
He looked at his broken arm and scratched his head with his other hand, saying, "You are too powerful, I lost."
Immediately, Gu Qingtian grabbed his broken arm with his other hand.
With a crack, he twisted it back into place!
Moreover, an extremely vigorous blood energy was permeating.
His arm was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Even Jun Xiaoyao nodded secretly.
As expected of the Ancient God Imperial Clan, their physical recovery ability was indeed terrifying.
And if this punch had landed on someone like Xiahou Zhen, his body would probably have been shattered.
Yet Gu Qingtian only suffered a fracture.
From this, it could be seen that the Ancient God Imperial Clan was indeed not just a hollow name.
"Master." Gu Qingtian said foolishly.
If others saw this, they would definitely be shocked.
Someone was actually able to tame an unparalleled heaven's pride expert of the Ancient God Imperial Clan.
Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly.
He was naturally not doing this because he had nothing better to do.
Perhaps the Ancient God Imperial Clan was also an object worth winning over.
If the Yun Clan Imperial Clan wanted to reign supreme, they could not do without the help of allied imperial clans.
Gu Qingtian could also be considered a pawn and a breakthrough point.
