“Gongzi Yu was too arrogant, otherwise he wouldn’t have died.”
“Hmph, one should be so —— if one is not frivolous and wasting one’s youth.”
Qing Yu sat in the most remote corner and looked speechlessly at the two young Daoists in front of him.
It was a well-known fact that students sitting in the last row always thought that the teacher could not see their small movements and liked to desert and whisper the most.
And this was even more so in a place that was comparable in size to the world-famous square in the former imperial capital. This little corner where Qing Yu was was extremely far away from Zhukong. The two young Daoist priests of the Innate Realm who had come over to open their eyes in front of them could at best only see tiny figures.
So naturally, they didn’t have the heart to watch the bout and could only chat. Then the talk skewed from Zhu Kong to Gong Zi Yu.
It could be seen that one of these two young Daoist priests was still a fan of Gong Zi Yu and held him in extremely high esteem, arguing with the other one to the point of being red-faced.
Shaking his head somewhat helplessly, Qing Yu ignored the two little Daoist priests and turned his gaze to the centre of the square.
What was an extremely long distance for the two young Daoist priests was, in Qing Yu’s eyes, naturally not a matter of concern.
Zhu Kong slowly drew his longsword, and the blade was also diffused with a grey aura, permeated with an unsettling colour.
“Yun Zheng, you go and learn what young Daoist Zhu Kong can do.” Real Tian Yang spoke out.
With Tian Yang’s eyesight, he could naturally see that Zhu Kong was extraordinary. This later member of the younger generation had a murderous aura that could be turned into substance.
The grey aura on the blade of the sword was the result of Zhu Kong’s murderous aura.
Therefore, Real Tian Yang had directly dispatched a killer, his own closed disciple.
“Yes, Master.” Yun Zheng rose and saluted.
From his body, golden clouds suddenly radiated out, gathering into sheets of clouds and wrapping him up and flying away.
‘The Pure Yang Palace’s Clear View Clear Sun Celebration Clouds, a rare secret technique of flight. This Yun Zheng is performing this secret technique with his Divine Origin realm cultivation, his true qi is thick enough.” Qing Yu thought to himself.
The flying secret technique was far more costly to true qi than light kung fu. It was more than ten times more difficult for the Divine Origin realm to cast a flying secret technique than the True Dan realm.
However, the Pure Yang Palace’s ‘Pure Yang True Gong’ was the best at training qi, and its true qi was the strongest, so it was not worried about any shortage.
After flying into the middle of the square, the Qingjing Qingriqing clouds turned into mist again and were inhaled by Yun Zheng to replenish his true qi.
He was not an arrogant person, and did not take Zhu Kong lightly. The reason why he performed the Qing Jing Jie Ri Qing Yun, which had lost so much Qi, was because it could be absorbed into his body again to replenish the loss.
Otherwise, even if “Pure Yang True Energy” was good at training Qi, that move would have reduced Yun Zheng’s strength by more than half. After all, he was only at the Divine Origin realm and had a deficiency in true qi.
“Please, Daoist Zhu Kong.” Yun Zheng arched his hand and said.
“I cannot be senior Yun Zheng’s dao friend.” Zhu Kong sneered.
Yun Zheng appeared to be only in his thirties, but in reality, his age had reached forty, one round older than Zhu Kong. Moreover, in terms of seniority, Yun Zheng was also a generation above Zhu Kong.
His master, Tian Yang, was of the same generation as Zhu Kong’s ancestor. It was only because Zhu Kong’s ancestor had not been able to break through to Godhood that he could not compare with Tian Yang.
Of course, in this jianghu, strength is still the criterion of superiority. Tian Yang was a generation above Hua Yu Fei, and he would only address him as “Dao friend”. Zhu Kong and Yun Zheng were also addressed in the same way.
Calling Yunzheng senior was just because of deliberate ridicule. The Pure Yang Palace was about to pull down the Luofu Palace, so Zhu Kong naturally would not have a good face.
Since they were not on speaking terms, the two of them naturally did not talk much and started the formal duel.
Starting from the centre of the square, a light shield with a radius of 300 metres began to take shape, enveloping the two of them. Countless profound runes glittered on the ground around the edge of the light shield.
Although they were in the Divine Origin realm, their destructive power was already taking shape, so they could not do without protection.
In the middle of the light shield, Zhu Kong was the first to strike his sword, his figure transforming into a grey shadow, his long sword suffused with a grey murderous aura showing his killing intent and ruthlessness.
Yun Zheng also showed no weakness, his Pure Yang Dharma Sword flying recklessly as his sword energy waved.
Like Luo Fu Palace, it is a rare sword cultivator in the Daoist sect. However, unlike Luofu Palace, when the Pure Yang Sword is practised to a high level, the actual sword is discarded and a Qi weapon formed from true Qi is used instead.
Yun Zheng has naturally reached the qi-weapon stage, and his Pure Yang Dharma Sword can be sent and received freely and used as he wishes. The golden-coloured qi sword stretched across the board, resisting the increasingly powerful killing sword.
However, Zhu Kong was now a*sessed by Qing Yu to be able to catch up with the Demon Prince, so naturally he was not that easy to deal with.
The sword swung down without any rules, but followed the most concise and clear trajectory to cut the vital points.
After he had initially practised the sword technique, Zhu Kong had shed all the moves he had learnt in the past and simply let his killing intent drive him to use his sword in the most direct way to kill.
Although the stances were simple, they were always straight to the point and would not stop until death.
Yun Zheng was bound to lose his guard for a long time, and after resisting Zhu Kong’s three successive killing strokes, he was wounded in the shoulder by the subsequent sword qi.
The killing machine instantly caused the shoulder wound to shrivel, and the sword qi ran straight into his body.
”When killing Qi and sword Qi merge, it can be called a killing sword. This martial art that Zhu Kong knows can eventually merge true qi with killing qi and attack without equal. If the Tong Shen realm practiced this sword technique to its great completion, its power would also surpa*s my Xuan Yin Sword Qi.” Qing Yu estimated.
It was because Zhu Kong had not learnt the art well that he could not take Yun Zheng now, if it were Qing Yu, that sword just now would have killed Yun Zheng.
Of course, Zhu Kong and Qing Yu were at completely different levels in martial arts, so it was not bad to have this performance.
”However, although this sword technique is unparalleled in attacking, it is also very violent in pushing the body. And if you want to concoct the ultimate killing power, not cultivating the sword body is the best option.”
There are special methods of refining the body in the Sword Dao, using a specific method to absorb metal essence and train it into a sword body with various divine effects. But this kind of sword body would also be a metamorphosis of the mind in the direction of a ruthless weapon, and if one practises it to a great extent, it would be almost difficult for the lake of the heart to ripple.
This state of mind is almost like turning a human being into a sword. It is also ruthless, but far inferior to Xuandu’s ruthless state of mind. It is naturally excellent for many swordsmen whose only heart is the sword, but the sword skill Zhu Kong practises requires his own heart to raise his killing spirit so that it can be most effective.
If one were to use killing to harbour the killing spirit, one would actually be falling short.
This would also eliminate the way for Zhu Kong to temper his body with the Sword Body Technique. And the rest of the body refining techniques were generally somewhat incompatible with this pure killing machine.
”Therefore, the only way for this sword technique to quench each other with one’s own vitality and killing energy is to use it to quench each other, and while the body grows rapidly and the true qi explodes, the life span will also continue to shorten.”
Qing Yu Tian Zi’s qi-watching technique ran, reacting to the situation in Zhu Kong’s body as it was in his mind, constantly speculating.
The method of luck in the body meridians was no secret to Qing Yu. It was because many divine kung fu techniques below the Xiantian realm could be peeked at by Qing Yu.
If it was in some low martial world, Qing Yu could basically steal and learn all the martial arts in the world.
