Chapter 640
The Decayed Fairy felt that what Xie An said made a lot of sense.
This kind of thing is indeed very easy to get addicted to; she often did this with Jiang Lianyi and Ao Ling.
Lu Yang thought to himself, I knew you, Xie An, had a problem. There are no beggars in the Great Xia; the old beggar was a disguise. Are you, the little beggar, really a beggar?
What kind of character is there to test? It's hard to say who is testing whom.
Senior Brother Dai, what kind of broken list did you give? The first person is already abnormal.
"Then I wish you a happy cultivation, Venerable. We two will leave first." Lu Yang gave Old Meng a wink. His brain hadn't been working well just now; he had exposed Xie An's identity in front of Qiao'er, affecting Xie An's attempt to rob the cradle, and he felt extremely guilty. The two backed away and left the dilapidated temple.
"Wait." Xie An looked at Lu Yang with an unfriendly expression. You kid called out my true form in front of Qiao'er; how am I supposed to get along with Qiao'er in the future?
After Qiao'er learned that Xie An was a great Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator, her expression was blank, clearly frightened by this matter. "Senior, what is it?" Lu Yang put on a smile, as respectful as could be.
"Since you called me Senior, I cannot be stingy. How about this: I will suppress my realm to the early Nascent Soul stage, and we will fight a match. Let me teach you how to fight!"
Lu Yang: "..."
Senior, if you want to hit me, you can just say so; there's no need to go to such great lengths. "Are you fighting or not?"
Xie An clearly had the demeanor of a senior and would not suppress people with his realm. Lu Yang sighed; it looked like he had to fight.
"Then please enlighten me, Senior."
The two walked out of the dilapidated temple. This was outside the city, and there were few pedestrians, otherwise, the temple wouldn't be so dilapidated.
Xie An released part of his suppression, and his realm climbed level by level: Qi Condensation stage, Foundation Establishment stage, Golden Core stage, early Nascent Soul stage! He used great magic power to simulate his former Nascent Soul stage appearance, even simulating the Nascent Soul itself.
Simulating the Nascent Soul stage was easy for him; he had done this when he recovered his Dao heart last time. "Kid Lu, come!" Xie An took a stance, showing the demeanor of a senior, and let Lu Yang make the first move.
Lu Yang did not dare to be careless and used the Azure Sharp Sword to face the enemy. He drew the sword like water; the sword light was incomparably sharp, his essence, energy, and spirit were unified, and his sword intent was ethereal, making all sword cultivators in the world feel ashamed.
"Good sword technique!" Xie An's eyes lit up. This kid's sword path level was a step higher than when he fought the Heavenly Court Sect during the last celebration.
If he were truly at the Nascent Soul stage, he really wouldn't be this kid's match.
Fortunately, he was now a Nascent Soul stage cultivator with the vision of the Tribulation Transcendence stage!
Crack!
The nine-section whip lashed out, the tip of the whip hitting the air and splashing lightning everywhere.
The nine-section whip used softness to overcome hardness, like a dragon in water, with infinite changes and hard to fathom. The moment the whip slightly touched the Azure Sharp Sword, it caused the sword edge to deflect. No matter how powerful this sword strike was, it was useless if it didn't hit!
Lu Yang flicked his wrist, and the long sword turned into four, making it impossible to tell which one was the real Azure Sharp Sword.
The sword light gathered sword Qi, falling from the nine heavens, entangled with the dragon in the water, fighting in an inseparable struggle.
Then, the Samadhi True Fire and the Golden Crow True Flame both flew out. The temperature rose suddenly, the air scorched and distorted, and Xie An spat out purple lightning. The lightning and fire collided, emitting a roar like the collapse of heaven and earth.
Lu Yang drew a prison on the ground to trap Xie An. Xie An laughed, and countless water dragons grew under his feet, breaking through the prison. Lu Yang used the Water-Splitting Technique to neutralize them, and before the water dragons could touch Lu Yang, they turned into gas and dissipated in the air.
Lu Yang burrowed into the ground, and the Twin Lotus bloomed, giving birth to twins. The two people and two swords attacked Xie An simultaneously. Xie An shifted his steps, weaving through the gaps between the two swords, and at the same time, a Nascent Soul flew out from between his eyebrows, holding the nine-section whip and wrestling with the two Lu Yangs.
The two fought, locked in an inseparable struggle, with no clear winner.
"Good kid, you can really fight back and forth with me." Xie An's mouth curled into a cold smile, but you think I only know this much?
Today, I will let you see how terrifying a Nascent Soul stage cultivator with the vision of the Tribulation Transcendence stage is!
Xie An stepped on the Supreme Wuji Steps, using his footsteps to outline a grand formation. Within the formation, spiritual energy became restless, the mud collapsed, and plants grew crazily. This formation could control all plants within its range and had very high requirements for the precision of the formation—it was a formation that a Nascent Soul stage cultivator could never execute!
The plants went wild, carrying heavy mud blocks, and at the very top was the Nascent Soul holding the nine-section whip, sealing off all paths of retreat! "Break!"
Lu Yang gave a light shout, and the Azure Sharp Sword and the Underworld Moon Sword slashed out simultaneously. Wood chips exploded, cutting open a gap, but before he could rush out, he was blocked by the rapidly growing trees.
Lu Yang soared into the sky, wanting to leave, but Xie An's Nascent Soul was blocking him from above; he couldn't escape at all!
Lu Yang looked enviously at Xie An's Nascent Soul fighting with the nine-section whip. Why does my Invincible Nascent Soul only hit me... wait, it seems the Invincible Nascent Soul can do more than just hit me.
"Senior, forgive me!" Lu Yang executed his cultivation technique, disconnected from the Invincible Nascent Soul, and sent the Invincible Nascent Soul into Xie An's dantian.
Xie An laughed loudly: "If you have any means, use them and let me see, let me see how much of Yun Zhi's demeanor you have... Holy crap, what is this?!"
Before Xie An could finish laughing, the Invincible Nascent Soul burrowed into Xie An's dantian and started hitting whoever it saw. He had lived for several thousand years and had never seen anyone's Nascent Soul fight like this! Xie An hurriedly recalled his Nascent Soul and started a battle with the Invincible Nascent Soul in his dantian.
However, the Invincible Nascent Soul's moves were exquisite and extremely delicate. Every attack hit Xie An's pain points. Even with the vision of the Tribulation Transcendence stage, he couldn't cope with this kind of attack, causing him to fall to the ground in pain, with sweat the size of soybeans rolling down his forehead.
Suddenly, infinite power erupted from Xie An's body, expelling the Invincible Nascent Soul from his body.
Lu Yang reconnected with the Invincible Nascent Soul and laughed: "Senior, this is not the combat power of the Nascent Soul stage." Just now, in order not to be beaten up by the Invincible Nascent Soul, Xie An subconsciously used a portion of his power.
"Alright, alright, I'll count it as your win. If there's nothing else, get lost quickly!" Xie An waved his hand irritably, admitting he had lost.
Lu Yang cupped his fists and sheathed his sword, turning his head to shout: "Old Meng, get ready to go."
"Wait, this little girl's aptitude is exceptionally good." Meng Jingzhou's tone carried joy.
Meng Jingzhou held a palm-sized aptitude stone, the best quality kind. It didn't need contact; it just needed to be placed next to a mortal to detect their aptitude.
Seeing Lu Yang and Xie An fighting in an inseparable struggle, he thought it would be better to test Qiao'er's spiritual roots during this time. When the aptitude stone was placed beside Qiao'er, an ice crystal without a trace of impurities appeared in the transparent stone. Mutant single spiritual root—Ice Spiritual Root!
"This girl has an Ice Spiritual Root!"
"What, there's such a good thing?" Lu Yang was also overjoyed when he heard this; this was an unexpected harvest.
"Oh, I forgot to mention just now, that girl is also at the Tribulation Transcendence stage. You saw her at the celebration; she is the Supreme Elder of the Mei Sect," the Decayed Fairy reminded him.
Lu Yang: "..."
Miss Qiao'er finally woke up from the fact that her "Brother Xie" was Venerable Wuji, radiating an extremely cold aura that made people shudder.
"Wuji, I didn't expect it to be you!"
She had called him "Brother Xie" for half a year, thinking of secretly giving Xie An resources, enjoying the pleasure of nurturing him, and finally revealing her identity so they could become husband and wife. She never expected Xie An to be that old bastard, Venerable Wuji!
Xie An felt this familiar power, his expression changed, and he was equally furious: "Qianjiao, it's you, you old witch!"
He had also been thinking of cultivating with Qiao'er, experiencing many dangers, capturing Qiao'er's heart, being forced to reveal his identity at a critical moment, defeating the enemy, and flying away together with Qiao'er. He never expected Qiao'er to be that old witch, Venerable Qianjiao!
Lu Yang felt that the Qiankun Purple Cloud Palace was truly blessed, actually being able to take two major Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivators as disciples; even the Congwendao Sect didn't have this ability.
