As the Universe Turns - Chapter 270
Chapter 270 Three-flower Agglomeration
Xia Guyun, Lou Qingshan, and the others subconsciously condensed Genuine energy. They all thought in their hearts that if there were only a few of them, it would be difficult to stop Xiao Yichen and the Flowers Lian Palace’s witch.
“Alright …”
At this moment, Qianyu Ni Shang seemed to have made up her mind. Ning Mei said, “Since you are not willing to turn around, I will not let you leave with this demonic woman today. Xiao Yichen, I will not let you make any more mistakes. Whether you are alive or dead today, I will bring you back to see Martial Uncle Ling Yin!”
As soon as she finished speaking, she lifted the Qiushui Ancient Sword. The white light on the sword instantly flourished, and countless strands of sword Qi instantly circled around her body. Whether it was sword intent or the aura emanating from her body, it was no longer comparable to what it had been in the past!
Xia Guyun and the others did not expect that her cultivation had actually reached the late stage of Soul Refinement. Wasn’t this just shocking?
“Just you …”
However, Xiao Chen’s eyes were cold. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly circulated the Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique. In an instant, layers of golden light enveloped his body. No matter how powerful the sword qi was, it was difficult to penetrate it.
“Zheng!”
With a sword sound, Qianyu Ni Shang flew over with her sword in her hand. Under the surge of the sword qi, the nearby plants, trees, flowers, and stones instantly turned into dust.
“Bang!”
The layers of Genuine energy shields that Xiao Chen had just condensed were directly pierced through by the unparalleled sharpness of the Qiushui Ancient Sword. Following that, the layers inside were also shattered by the sword qi. In the end, a long sword with a burst of cold light had already pierced into his eyes.
“Zheng!”
Another sharp sound rang out. Xiao Chen suddenly raised his palms and closed them in the middle. He pressed down on the Qiushui Ancient Sword that was piercing towards him. Only then did Qianyu Ni Shang’s unstoppable momentum decrease slightly.
“Senior Brother, for the sake of this demonic woman, are you really unwilling to turn around …”
Qianyu Ni Shang’s face revealed a hint of pain. She knew that this person in front of her was no longer the senior brother who had protected her everywhere in the past.
“Turn around … hehe.”
Xiao Chen smiled calmly. His palms trembled and a dozen cracks appeared on the ground beneath his feet. As the dust flew, Qianyu Ni Shang seemed to be unable to withstand a single blow and was sent flying.
“Junior Sister!”
Leng Qianxue instantly stabilized her. She never expected that Xiao Yichen’s current cultivation was on par with the many elders in the Black Green Sect.
“Don’t worry about me. Capture that demonic woman. Many things have to do with her. We can’t let her escape today!”
Qianyu Nichang Genuine energy shook and flew towards Xiao Chen again. Her fingers condensed and she pointed between her eyebrows. A “Three Flowers Gathering on the Head” immortal mark immediately appeared on her forehead. Her aura instantly increased by countless times.
Seeing the Three Flowers Gathering Roof Seal between her eyebrows, Xia Guyun and the others were deeply shocked. No wonder her cultivation had greatly increased in recent years. It turned out that she had already cultivated the Three Flowers Gathering Roof. Throughout the thousands of years, only Venerable Miao Yin had cultivated the Three Flowers Gathering Roof. But now, there was another person in this world.
The so-called Three Flowers Gathering at the top was to gather “essence”, “qi”, and “god” in one aperture of the profound passageway, fusing “refining essence to transform qi”, “refining qi to divinity”, and “refining spirit to return to the void”, and finally gathering at the top. From then on, all tribulations, all methods, and all devils would not invade!
Throughout the ancient and modern times, there were many capable and talented people. There were no lack of people whose cultivation had reached the Transformation Realm and their methods were skyward. However, it was still difficult for them to cultivate the Three Flowers Gathering Peak. This was evident in their might.
Although Qianyu Nichang was only peeking at the Three Flowers Gathering at the top, his decision was not trivial. Seeing her imposing aura greatly increase, Hua Weiyang’s expression changed slightly and he shouted in shock, “Idiot! Be careful!”
However, before she could say anything else, Lou Qingshan, Leng Qianxue, and the others had already attacked her. They were disciples of the Mysterious Cyan Sect, so how could they allow the people of the Devil Religion to come here? Furthermore, they were also the witches of the Flower Lian Palace who had been involved in many recent matters. Therefore, no matter if Xiao Chen was present or not, they would never allow Hua Wei Yang to leave today.
“Senior Sister, you … don’t fight anymore.”
Poria was the only one who stood there helplessly. Seeing the fierce battle between the two sides, she couldn’t make up her mind for a while and didn’t dare to rashly upload spiritual messages to the several Sovereigns on the mountain.
“Zheng! Zheng! Zheng!”
With three successive sharp sounds, Xiao Chen blocked Qianyu Nichang’s three sword qi attacks. On the other side, Hua Weiyang was attacked jointly by Xia Guyun and the others. For a moment and a half, he was unhappy. He could only use the Flying Flower Lian You Umbrella and the Jade Lian Hua to block their attacks.
A moment later, Hua Weiyang used two magic treasures to temporarily repel Xia Guyun and the others. In an instant, he flew to Xiao Chen’s side and whispered, “Idiot, quickly leave. After alerting your master and the others, I won’t be able to leave.”
Xiao Chen naturally understood this. The person he wanted to see the most was Ling Yin. The person he didn’t want to see the most was also Ling Yin. His palm shook, and the Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique in his body instantly transformed into an incomparable palm force that shook back Qianyu Nichang’s Qiushui Ancient Sword.
“Let’s go.”
He didn’t stop, but just as he was about to leave with Hua Weiyang, Qianyu Nichang suddenly stopped him. This time, the sword qi was even more fierce: “Smoke marks 10,000 kilometers!”
As he shouted, the Qiushui Ancient Sword instantly transformed into tens of thousands of sharp sword Qi that enveloped the surroundings and slashed towards Xiao Chen and the others. Its momentum was already earth-shattering.
This move, “Smoke Marks Ten Thousand Miles”, was comprehended by Qianyu Nichang himself from the Qiushui Ancient Sword. Compared to “Qiushui Wuqing”, its power was not the same. If the disciples of the Devil Religion were to be attacked by this sword style, they would probably be annihilated by the sword qi in an instant.
Xiao Chen sent Hua Weiyang out with a single palm, and then activated the Great Freedom Palm Technique that Daoist Gudeng had taught him. The layers of sword qi that covered the sky seemed to be controlled by him in an instant, and they actually attacked Qianyu Nichang and the others in the opposite direction.
“Watch out!”
Xia Guyun and the others were shocked. How could they have imagined that Xiao Yichen had actually learned such a strange ability? Before they could react, there was a loud “rumble”. In the midst of the dust, all of them were sent flying backwards. If it wasn’t for Qianyu Nichang’s timely withdrawal of his sword, the few of them would have been heavily injured.
However, when the dust scattered, there was no trace of Xiao Chen or Hua Weiyang.
“Senior Brother …”
Looking at the empty wilderness and the broken nearby, Qianyu Nichang felt a wave of sorrow in her heart. She couldn’t help but recall the scene many years ago when she and Xiao Chen first went down the mountain and came to this small village. But now, it was already … neither human nor human.
She didn’t know if the next time they met, the two of them would be facing each other.
…
By the time twilight fell, Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang had already left the boundaries of Mysterious Cyan Mountain and arrived at an unknown town.
There weren’t many pedestrians in the town, and it had just rained. The air was still filled with the smell of mud, as well as a trace of cold killing intent.
