Chapter 1088: Chapter 1062: Next Time You Return, I Will Kill You
Boom——
The Sword Force of the two clashed together, unleashing destructive might that instantly spread out.
Liang Fengqi’s Sword Force was like a giant celestial net, directly blocking a piece of the void, sweeping towards Tangyu overwhelmingly, its aura shaking the heavens. Liang Fengqi’s sword, like dazzling rays of light in the night, each ray capable of piercing the sky, seemed as though everything under such light would cease to exist, cut apart directly.
Indeed, Liang Fengqi’s strength was formidable, and his Cultivation Technique was definitely at a Spiritual Art level. The power of this sword strike was not a whit inferior to Yan Huohuo’s Four Calamities Sword, perhaps even sharper. Of course, the destructive might of Yan Huohuo’s Four Calamities Sword was a bit stronger.
As for Tangyu’s Yin Yang Style, it possessed vast might, with the Yin Yang Path, seizing the universe, and wielded supreme Great Dao power.
Thus, the confrontation between the two was exceptionally spectacular, and with one move, they surprisingly ended in a draw. However, Liang Fengqi was not having a good time; he had exhausted all his strength in that strike. Although he had potent hidden cards, he could not use them here as it would be against the rules.
The punishment from the Jiuzhou Immortal Sect was something he could not bear.
With a chilling expression, Liang Fengqi felt extremely uneasy in his heart. Tangyu’s powerful strength was clearly beyond his expectations, truly terrifying. His all-out strike gained him no advantage, which was indeed very displeasing.
Tangyu pointed his sword at Liang Fengqi and said, "Your strength is just so. Thinking of killing me, you’re far from capable, want to fight more? If a battle is desired, I’ll accompany you to the end."
Liang Fengqi’s face turned gloomy and unpleasant, but his strength was insufficient to suppress Tangyu. Continuing the fight would yield him no benefit, making him feel extremely difficult. Truly fighting might end in mutual destruction, which would be dangerous for him, and he might end up without even an Inner Sect Disciple position.
Thus, with this in mind, Liang Fengqi harbored thoughts of retreat.
Seeing Liang Fengqi losing his will to fight, Tangyu’s mouth curled coldly as he said, "Since you won’t fight, it’s my turn to attack now. Since you came to trouble me today, don’t blame me for being impolite, take this!"
With that, Tangyu formed hand seals with his hands, instantly creating a massive vortex above his head; it was incredibly terrifying, like opening a passage to a Foreign Land or a giant black hole.
Seeing this terrifying vortex, Liang Fengqi’s eyebrows furrowed deeply, as though facing a formidable enemy, his face also displaying an unpleasant look.
Only then did Liang Fengqi realize that earlier was not Tangyu’s full strength, that he had hidden his power. Damn it, how could his strength be so powerful? How could it be like this?
This left him extremely uncomfortable, but at this moment, he also sensed a dangerous aura, making his expression turn fierce.
Rumble——
A terrifying destructive might descended from the sky; a huge ’wheel’ character seal flew out from the vortex, like a great mountain bearing down on Liang Fengqi with overwhelming, terrifying force.
The Reincarnation Seal, after all, was a Spiritual Art, exceptionally aligned with the Yin Yang Path. Without cultivating the Yin Yang Path, even casting this Spiritual Art would greatly reduce its power. This Reincarnation Seal could only demonstrate its formidable power in Tangyu’s hands, thus becoming Tangyu’s most potent technique, even stronger than the Yin Yang Force.
"Damn it!" Liang Fengqi gritted his teeth and eyes wide, but at this time, he could only attack with all his might.
But his Sword Force was directly shattered by the Wheel Character Seal.
"Puh—" A mouthful of fresh blood spewed from Liang Fengqi’s mouth, and his figure was flung back, somewhat embarrassed, staring at Tangyu with a face full of grim determination, as if eager to fight to the death with Tangyu.
Liang Nianqi’s companion on that side also looked incredibly unpleasant, but he had no way to intervene, as that would also be a violation.
Looking at Liang Fengqi, Tangyu let out a cold smile and said, "Want to kill me, you don’t have the strength yet. Don’t think just anyone from Liang Kingdom can come and mess with me. All of this was forced by you in Liang Kingdom. Liang Fengqi, I can clearly tell you, from now on, the score with Liang Kingdom is settled. In the future, when I have the strength, I will definitely settle this account with Liang Kingdom thoroughly. As for you, hmph, you better not provoke me again. If you come next time, I will surely kill you!"
After speaking, Tangyu turned and left directly. Having defeated Liang Fengqi, he naturally earned half of Liang Fengqi’s points.
Having vented his anger, Tangyu felt much relieved.
After Tangyu left, Liang Fengqi’s expression turned extremely sour. He gritted his teeth, seething with fury, his fist almost crushing itself: "Tangyu, you’re too arrogant. Daring to go against my Liang Kingdom means you’re on a dead-end path, dead-end. Hmph, I’ll let you jump around for a few more days."
After that, Tangyu didn’t encounter any formidable experts and spent half a day rather uneventfully.
Outside, Elder Yu and a few others stood in a spot, their gaze fixed on the light sphere, which now resembled a massive mirror, capturing all the battle scenes within.
At this time, in addition to Elder Yu and the others, several figures on the Nine Immortal Mountain’s layers were watching from afar, also paying close attention to this selection.
Those who were eliminated stood dejectedly on the plaza, watching the battles unfold inside. By now, more than a thousand had been eliminated. When the number inside drops to five thousand, the trial will be considered concluded. However, judging by the time, it would take at least a day or two more to conclude, so time is still relatively ample.
Atop the Nine Heavens is a palace built with white jade stones, situated at the peak of Jiuzhou Mountain, shrouded in mist, with Immortal Qi swirling around.
Inside the palace, two figures sat there, their gazes piercing the boundless void, directly reaching the first layer’s light sphere, observing the situation within.
A robust man clad in a white robe with gray hair appearing youthful, giving off the air of someone in their prime. The other was an old man with a wine gourd hanging from his waist, looking rather shabby, waving a tattered fan. If Tangyu were here, he would be amazed to find out that this old man was the same shabby fellow he encountered last time at the Forgetful Palace. And now, he was seated beside the Sect Master Immortal of the Jiuzhou Immortal Sect, appearing like old friends.
"Old Ji, you always roamed the Four Seas. How come you have time to sit here today? Is it that you’re interested in this selection of disciples for my Jiuzhou Immortal Sect? Or perhaps, old Ji, you’re feeling lonely and want to recruit a disciple for fun?" the Sect Master Immortal said.
The shabby old man took a sip of wine, and savored it with a click of his tongue: "Old Pan, your wine is quite good. Had I known you had such a rare treasure, I’d have come by sooner. As for these youngsters, I’m not particularly interested. We are old friends, so is there an issue if I visit you?"
The Sect Master Immortal chuckled lightly: "There’s an issue, quite a significant one. This doesn’t seem like your usual way, old Ji. I must say, you’re not planning to trick me again, are you? The last time you did, I suffered greatly. This time, no matter what, I won’t fall for it."
The shabby old man looked disdainfully at the Sect Master Immortal and said: "I must say, Old Pan, you really are once bitten, twice shy. Last time was an accident. This time, I’m merely passing by for a drink. Wandering has become a habit; seeing an old friend naturally made me want to catch up. There’s no trickery this time. So why are you so worried? Furthermore, as the esteemed Sect Master of the Jiuzhou Immortal Sect, aren’t you incredibly wealthy? Even if I were to extort something from you, wouldn’t it be just a drop in the bucket for you?"
The Sect Master Immortal shook his head: "Is your old bull nose mouth so easily satisfied? If it were, I’d let you rob me a few more times and be content. You know, it took me a full century to recover from last time’s robbery. This time, no matter what, I won’t fall for it. So, if you’re just here for a drink, you’re welcome. But if you have other intentions, forget it."
The shabby old man took another sip of wine, then gestured dismissively at the Sect Master Immortal.
------
In the light sphere, Tangyu finally encountered another opponent, once again meeting with Yan Huohuo.
Tangyu smirked coldly: "Yan Huohuo, we didn’t determine a winner in our last battle. Today, another fight is inevitable. Let’s see who’s superior."
Yan Huohuo brimmed with fighting spirit, his eyes blazing as he looked at Tangyu: "I feel the same. Let’s have a decisive battle and see who’s better." With that, Yan Huohuo made the first move, striking swiftly. From the start, he unleashed the Four Calamities Sword. The power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning surged forward overwhelmingly toward Tangyu, as if it aimed to obliterate everything between heaven and earth.
Tangyu sneered internally. With the previous experience, he certainly wouldn’t use the Yin Yang Style again, as it wouldn’t defeat Yan Huohuo. So, he immediately resorted to the Reincarnation Seal, unleashing the Wheel Character Seal. The formidable power of the Seal Technique directly destroyed Yan Huohuo’s Four Calamities Sword. Yan Huohuo sensed Tangyu’s terrifying might, and his expression changed. He couldn’t fathom that Tangyu still had such formidable methods.
Yan Huohuo gritted his teeth after suffering a loss. A burst of red light erupted from his chest, instantly enhancing the power of his Four Calamities Sword considerably. What was about to collapse managed to hold its ground against Tangyu’s Wheel Character Seal.
Tangyu moved, and the Yin Yang Wheel appeared in his hand. With a fierce glint in his eyes, the Yin Yang Wheel slashed out. A hundred-zhang-long black and white light, like polar lights of day and night, shattered the sky, striking Yan Huohuo with its incredible force, causing the space around to crumble layer by layer.
"Not good, damn!" Yan Huohuo suffered a severe setback, startled, and retreated rapidly. Yet, that terrifying force still smashed onto him heavily. Even with his top-grade artifact armor, the overwhelming force caused his chest to churn violently, making him vomit a mouthful of blood. His body flew backward like a sandbag, and even more blood lotuses bloomed in the air.
