Chapter 432: Killing Qi Flows and the Dipper Handle Crosses
The Qi mist slowly sank and fell, the wind and smoke were all quiet, and the heavens and earth seemed to be in a state of silence.
Chen Hang reached out his giant hand and took a Dharma seal. With a booming sound, his body also rose to over sixty zhang, standing proudly in the sky, like a towering mountain.
Cui Jing saw a round light floating behind Chen Hang's head, the outer circle bright and flawless, the inner layer chaotic and gloomy, his body covered in rosy clothes, surrounded by cloud leaves and heavenly flowers, his aura grand and upright, like the prestige of heaven and earth, making one unable to resist!
Cui Jing's pupils shrank slightly, several types of physical body methods flashed through his mind, and he soon understood, exclaiming:
"Tai Su Jade Body?"
"Tai Su Jade Body!"
Duan Gui and Jin Zongchun looked at each other suspiciously, the latter even blurting out:
"Who still dares to cultivate this method, are they not afraid of the Yang Nine Hundred and Sixty? Even for a True Inheritor of a sect, this is too arrogant. Could it be that the Great Virtue of Yuchen has such good patience that he will personally take action every few days to apply a concealment secret technique to him?"
Xue Jing was thoughtful when he saw this. As early as the Four Academies Competition, he had heard that Chen Hang had defeated He Lizhi with the Tai Su Jade Body and won the title of the competition's champion.
This matter had caused quite a stir in Yuchen at the time, and everyone was guessing about the great backer behind Chen Hang.
After all, without someone to protect him, cultivating the Tai Su Jade Body without authorization would be no different from seeking death.
And now it seems...
"Now it seems that Ancestor Tongxuan may have made a move early, intending to take the True Person into his sect?" Xue Jing sighed with emotion.
Cai Qing on the side was even more surprised, pulling Yang Kezhen to ask questions endlessly, and Wang Yun and others also pricked up their ears, inevitably curious.
Just as there was a lot of discussion, Cui Jing was silent for a moment.
There was a trace of envy on his face, but he soon shook his head, his expression without any fluctuation.
"Your teacher is indeed patient!"
Cui Jing sneered, clenched his left fist, drew his blade with his right arm, and killed fiercely in the blink of an eye!
The Tai Su Jade Body is indeed full of various loopholes, and therefore it is only ranked in the Mid-Low Grade in the Dao Court's physical sanctification department, far inferior to True Wushan's ultimate art, the Indestructible Golden Body.
But since Chen Hang dared to use this method openly, it meant that his Tai Su Jade Body system must have been concealed by a great virtue of the Immortal Dao. Cui Jing naturally was too lazy to waste effort, specifically to spend energy to calculate it, and he was not good at divination.
"The Indestructible Golden Body is ranked in the High-Mid Grade even in the ancient era. I have already figured out the way, so what if I can't calculate your system?"
"I don't believe that with this pair of fists, I can't break your Dharma body!"
Cui Jing's thoughts turned, and his fighting spirit became even fiercer.
Chen Hang shouted coldly, his eyes filled with chilling killing intent, and he immediately leaped up, fiercely meeting the challenge!
In an instant.
Dust rose and sand flew, Qi barriers covered the sun, as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had cracked, and giant sounds exploded continuously!
This was the collision of the purest strength.
No divine abilities, no magic power.
Streams of Qi vortices rose from the flat ground, spreading in all directions, like one mountain dragon after another wagging their tails, shattering the gale, leaving deep gullies on the surface, shocking to the eye!
Under such a collision, only the eyesight of a few major sect elders like Xue Jing and Duan Gui could see the location of the two figures.
In the blink of an eye, the two had already exchanged dozens of punches, as urgent as wind and fire!
The round light flickered uncertainly.
The divine monster true forms shook in bursts, as if they were about to fade like water stains under the sun.
After passing about hundreds of rounds, with a wave of Qi like a startled rainbow cutting through the dome, light and shadow shook, and the two figures suddenly separated.
At this time, the water curtain and heavenly flowers surrounding Chen Hang were already dilapidated, and the round light behind his head was also dimmed. As for Cui Jing on the other side, it was even more miserable.
The phantom form of the innate divine monster behind him was in a hazy state, blood stains were faintly visible at the corners of his mouth, and the brilliant light on his body surface was like a candle in the wind, flickering from time to time.
Cui Jing looked silently at the long blade in his hand, where several cracks were slowly expanding.
A few breaths later, with a "crack" sound, this superior precious weapon was actually broken with a gap, and the artifact spirit made a mournful sound.
"How could this be?!"
Jin Zongchun's face was ugly.
The Indestructible Golden Body is indeed True Wushan's world-suppressing ultimate art, with the ability to shake the heavenly pass and shake the earth's axis.
And the Tai Su Jade Body, which has removed the biggest drawback of the system, is not weak at all when compared to it.
Moreover, the cultivation method of the Tai Su Jade Body is not as cumbersome as the Indestructible Golden Body, and does not require any monster essence blood or spiritual treasure great medicines as auxiliary materials.
To this day, because of his position as a True Inheritor, his precious materials and resources are abundant. Recently, Chen Hang has also barely cultivated the Tai Su Jade Body to the Fifth Layer of the Yuan Realm, making further progress.
The Third Layer of the Yuan Realm can generally dominate in the Cave-Mystic, and the Sixth Layer of the Yuan Realm is the peak of the Golden Core.
As for the Third and Sixth Layers of the Initial Realm.
That is even more corresponding to the Return to Emptiness and Pure Yang in the orthodox Immortal Dao.
Now Chen Hang is suppressing Cui Jing with the Fifth Layer of the Yuan Realm Tai Su Jade Body, causing his Indestructible Golden Body, which he is proud of, to be damaged.
Although this made Duan Gui, Jin Zongchun, and others feel shocked and suspicious, it was actually within Chen Hang's expectations and not surprising.
"What a dragon fight and tiger struggle..."
Far away in the sky.
On a hundred-zhang floating spiritual peak that looked like it was built of necklaces.
Han Yinjue sat alone on a meditation cushion on the peak, his robes moving with the wind. He did not move the spiritual peak closer to Duan Gui's place. Several Han family generals, each about a zhang tall, waited respectfully at the foot of the peak. The generals' appearances were either horned and scaled, or green-faced and red-eyed, clearly all monsters who had achieved the Dao, and not a single one had a human body.
At this time, Han Yinjue sighed and looked at the copper mirror beside him, saying:
"For such characters, if I were to face them head-on, I'm afraid I wouldn't last a hundred rounds before miserably losing my head... It is often said that heaven produces ten thousand types, but the differences are indeed not the same."
The copper mirror was suspended in the void, the mirror surface was polished extremely bright, very slippery.
Through the mirror surface, it was clearly visible that Lu Shen was sitting on a jade platform, holding his chin with one hand, his eyes full of interest.
"Indeed a dragon fight and tiger struggle... this intensity makes me inevitably itch to try."
Lu Shen nodded in praise, his voice coming from afar through the copper mirror.
Within his line of sight, he saw Chen Hang and Cui Ju had already roused their spirits and were fiercely fighting together again, suddenly wind and thunder arose, the momentum extremely grand!
Han Yinjue heard this praise and said:
"If Brother Lu were to face the two, what would be the chance of winning?"
Lu Shen smiled faintly: "Although this person Chen Hang is not proficient in the way of talismans and arrays, and Cui Jing's escape speed is also a notch worse, I am not good at sword techniques either. When it comes to self-created methods, I am even a notch lower than Cui Jing.
For such things, if you don't fight a real battle, how can you know?"
Although Lu Shen's words were humble, there was an unhideable arrogance in his voice, as if he had no one else in his eyes and had the confidence to steadily defeat both Chen Hang and Cui Jing.
Han Yinjue was thoughtful, and at this time Lu Shen spoke again:
"However, if it really comes to the point of disregarding consequences and fighting for life and death, Chen Hang is actually easier to handle than Cui Jing. If I want to kill him, I will just consume my family's wealth."
Han Yinjue pondered for a moment, a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly blurted out:
"Could it be the Tai Su Jade Body? What kind of precious treasure does Brother Lu have that can calculate the location of his system?"
Lu Shen smiled without saying a word.
Han Yinjue saw this and did not force it, just smiled and said:
"I know Brother Lu is currently lurking in the Turtle Snake Cave, and it is not easy to show his true body, but if things really go wrong, I beg Brother Lu to consider the friendship between you and me, come to Ge Lu in person, and set up that mysterious array.
Your ancestor was an Immortal Sage who was famous in Xudu, especially famous for the way of arrays!
Brother Lu, as the first disciple of the third generation, is the true inheritor. Looking at the countless peers in the universe, I think only Brother Lu has the ability to set up that mysterious array!"
Lu Shen raised his eyebrows, but did not respond to this flattery, just smiled on his face, and changed the subject calmly:
"Brother Han, I know you want to tie Cui Jing to the Han family's boat, but your actions later, in my opinion, are truly inappropriate. Not only will it anger Chen Hang, but Cui Jing will not accept your favor either. Why do this?"
"If it weren't for my family's protection several times in the past, Cui Jing would have lost his life long ago, so how could he have today's glory?"
Han Yinjue was rarely expressionless, his fingers tapping his knees lightly:
"Cui Jing is a person who knows gratitude. Even a horse slave who once gave him food, he wants to repay with all his strength, and for this, he even begged True Wushan. And my family has saved his life many times, so what should he do?
Whether that matter can be achieved later is actually irrelevant; I just want Cui Jing to know the firmness of my family's heart! Since he claims to be a person who knows gratitude, he should have a reward!"
"..."
Lu Shen's expression was strange, noncommittal.
After this, the two chatted about some idle topics, and suddenly, Lu Shen's voice stopped.
He met Han Yinjue's gaze, his eyes condensed slightly, and he said in a deep voice:
"The winner is about to be decided!"
Far away, Chen Hang punched out, Cui Jing's figure shook violently, and he couldn't help but fly backward, retreating several miles, smashing the barren hills along the way to pieces, and rocks pierced the sky!
Amidst the sky-high dust, Cui Jing roared, forcibly stopping the decline.
He tried his best to blast out a Candle Yang Seal, and at the same time, the divine monster phantom behind him began to shatter again. The Tu Lou and Kui Niu beasts roared at the sky, gradually turning into rosy clouds and storms, covering his body.
As True Wushan's ultimate art, the Indestructible Golden Body has its own brilliant and wonderful aspects.
If one wants to cultivate this method, one cannot do without the essence blood and spirit souls of innate divine monsters to assist, and every time one refines a monster, there will be an extra phantom image behind the Dharma body.
Using the divine monster phantom to transform into Yuan Zhen to heal wounds like Cui Jing is just one type of usage.
If one cultivates the Indestructible Golden Body to Great Completion, one can manifest the phantom image to deal with the enemy, or transfer the injury to the phantom image, letting them truly die in one's place. Only then is it the true grand prestige of the Indestructible Golden Body!
Cui Jing is just a martial dao furnace, and the latter two types of functions are difficult to reach.
But even if he is proficient in the former, he originally had more than a dozen divine monster phantom images behind him.
But after a fierce fight with Chen Hang, now only four types remain: Tu Lou, Kui Niu, Xu Yi, and Di Wu.
Chen Hang had long known about this miraculous nature of the Indestructible Golden Body, so he naturally wouldn't watch Cui Jing recover his vitality.
He merged into the sword, and with the sharpness of the flying sword and the firmness of the body, he didn't dodge or evade, smashing the Candle Yang Seal to pieces!
A trace of shock appeared on Cui Jing's face, Chen Hang had already bullied his way forward, thunder in his palm, blowing off his left arm, blood flowing like a note.
"Transform!"
Cui Jing roared, the Tu Lou phantom image collapsed entirely, and flesh and blood regenerated in an instant.
And the next moment, Chen Hang had already fiercely reached out his palm to choke his neck.
At a distance close to face-to-face, thunder light rose again!
This forced Cui Jing to mobilize all his blood Qi to barely resist this blow, but he couldn't help but cough up blood, his figure staggering.
Before Cui Jing could breathe, the light behind Chen Hang's head climbed, and two giant hands appeared in a pincer movement from left and right, breaking the atmosphere and pressing down fiercely!
Cui Jing sacrificed the blade light, tearing the incoming giant hands apart in one go.
Thanks to the Tu Lou phantom image, his spirit was lifted at this moment, but after fighting for only a few dozen breaths, he was blown away again, the long blade in his hand trembling wildly, its luster becoming dimmer.
This battle was extremely tragic. Even though Jin Zongchun was usually arrogant, a chill couldn't help but arise in his heart, and he was silent.
And at this moment, Jin Zongchun's peripheral vision caught a glimpse of a peak not far away, where a green-robed martial cultivator under Ban Su suddenly sighed.
That person bit his tongue and spat out essence blood, a black shuttle jumped out from the top of his head, drew a line in the sky, and disappeared without a trace.
"This is..."
Thoughts flashed through Jin Zongchun's mind.
At the same moment, Chen Hang had just raised his fist to blow away the incoming iron pellet.
He was about to pinch this object when his heart suddenly moved, and at a hair's breadth, he drove his sword-escape, shifting a hundred zhang away from the original spot.
The next moment.
That black shuttle pierced through the void and exploded with a boom!
Rolling dark and filthy poisonous smoke blinded the eyes, flying in all directions. Wherever it passed, whether it was spiritual mechanism or mountain stone, it was dissolved clean.
"Under the orders of True Person Han of Zhu Jingtian, I am here to help the True Inheritor!"
Under the eyes of everyone, the martial cultivator who issued the flying shuttle smiled bitterly and bowed guiltily to the stunned Ban Su.
And before he could continue his actions, Yang Kezhen was already furious and struck, sending out a thunder, beating the martial cultivator and the remaining black shuttles on his body into a pulp!
"Han Yinjue, you—"
Cui Jing frowned and turned to look.
On the top of the spiritual peak, Han Yinjue also stood up at the right time, apologized, and lowered his head.
And before Cui Jing could think more, the sword light had already arrived in front of him, followed by a vast fist wind, pressing people until their breath was about to suffocate!
After fighting several rounds, Chen Hang's offensive suddenly slowed down, and he pulled back the sword light circling in all directions, gathering them all within his body.
This move made Cui Jing quite surprised, his eyes flickering, and he leaped out of the battle circle.
Just as he held his blade in front of his chest, secretly concentrating and guarding, Chen Hang suddenly pointed his fingers and spoke in a faint voice:
"Cui Jing."
No complex changes, no obvious signs.
The next moment, a dark and deep sword Qi suddenly burst out, silently tearing the floating clouds and cotton, shaking the mountains, and slashing forward with incomparable speed and sharpness!
In an instant.
The beautiful scenery no longer existed, and the paradise was gone.
Where the sword Qi passed, the heavens and earth seemed to fall into a gray-white sheet, losing their bright colors, only the raging death Qi ravaged the land, sweeping across the sky!
North Star Seven Swords, First Style—North Dipper Pours Death!
Cui Jing's spirit was dazed, and the long blade in his hand shattered silently.
The sword Qi broke his Indestructible Golden Body, like cutting grass, smashing half of his body in the sky, and instantly the spiritual light scattered, and blood rain flew!
And when the sword Qi continued to soar, the three phantom images of Kui Niu, Xu Yi, and Di Wu remaining behind Cui Jing suddenly moved, colliding together, making a loud sound like thunder splitting stone, and dissipating one after another with the sword Qi.
"Sword technique..."
In the midst of severe pain, Cui Jing's eyes regained a bit of clarity, and only this thought flashed through his mind before he fainted.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
At that moment, it was so fast that even the two golden-bodied martial cultivators, Duan Gui and Jin Zongchun, only saw a thread of gray line like a wandering silk pass through the sky, and then Cui Jing's Indestructible Golden Body was torn to pieces and miserably defeated.
Jin Zongchun flicked his finger and shot out a group of bright light like a wall. Chen Hang had to start his sword-escape and flash away from the spot. He was worried that Chen Hang would kill him, so he hurriedly grabbed Cui Jing.
"This fellow actually dares to take action, let's go together quickly!"
Cai Qing raised his old brows, shouted, and hurriedly greeted Xue Jing and the others.
In an instant, the shouting of killing rose again, like thunder.
The mist was miserable and the clouds were sad, and the sky light was dim!
And because Cui Jing's injury was indeed not light, Duan Gui and Jin Zongchun had no intention of fighting.
After entangling for a while, they escaped the battle circle, tore the shifting precious talisman, and fled back to North Pingshan.
During this period, Cai Qing also took advantage of the opportunity to sacrifice a magic treasure, knocking Jin Zongchun down.
Jin Zongchun hated it even more in his heart, but it was not easy to abandon the seriously injured and unconscious Cui Jing to beat Cai Qing into a ball of blood mud, so he had to secretly remember it.
In a flash.
Five days passed in a hurry, and the war in North Pingshan continued.
Although the True Martial side lost Cui Jing's central command, after all, there were still two Golden Bodies of the Upper Sect, plus Ban Su and others, just guarding North Pingshan and not coming out, barely able to maintain the situation.
And although Chen Hang defeated Cui Jing, with his own strength, it was difficult to achieve the full work, destroy the North Pingshan array, just slowly consuming the array restrictions with the crowd, and starting to seal the earth veins, cutting off the nourishment of the earth Qi.
On this day, in a cave dwelling in North Pingshan.
Duan Gui and Jin Zongchun sat on the main seat in the north, their expressions indifferent, their eyes slightly drooping, the former having a trace of sadness and helplessness between his brows.
Below these two were Chen Ya, Du Zhan, and other True Wushan disciples, as well as a group of local martial cultivators led by Ban Su.
Looking around, the jade stools in the spacious cave hall were already full, and in the vast North Pingshan, all those who had achieved the furnace were gathered here.
The atmosphere in the field was oppressive, and everyone felt heavy in their hearts.
Finally, a long sigh sounded, and it was Du Zhan who smiled bitterly and stood up, breaking the silence first.
He bowed to the two elders above, walked to the middle of the cave hall, faced the crowd, as if wanting to say something, but finally just shook his head and said blankly:
"Everyone, what should we do?" ===== CHAPTER 433 =====
