As the Universe Turns - Chapter 30

Chapter 30 Dou Technique
The atmosphere in the square became even more solemn. Liu Chengfeng looked at the girl in red not far away and slowly put down the jade ruyi in his hand. He waved his left hand and said, “Please.”

As soon as he finished speaking, countless strands of cold air immediately circled around his body. However, seeing that the cold air was getting bigger and bigger, the cold wind whistled in mid-air when it was neutral. Frost ice fragments actually floated up. It was as if the entire plaza had entered the cold winter season. Everyone nearby felt a burst of cold air invade and continuously retreated towards the outside of the plaza.

Liu Chengfeng’s body was surrounded by countless strands of ice sword Qi, and those strands of ice sword Qi actually slowly condensed into an immortal sword. This immortal sword was not an empty sword, but a real sword. The expressions of the elders on the high platform couldn’t help but change. They never expected that Liu Xuanyin would actually pass this sword to him!

Cangfeng Valley had countless hidden swords, four of which were the most famous. This “Frost Descent” was one of them. It was the third generation Valley Master of Cangfeng Valley that year, who took the ten thousand years of ice from the bitter cold lands of the extreme north and tempered it with the extremely cold energy of heaven and earth.

On the day of the completion of the sword, the cold frost descended from a hundred kilometers of Cangfeng Valley. It did not disperse in March. It was because the sword contained a particularly terrifying cold energy. Once the sword was drawn, even if it was hot in summer, it would instantly enter a cold winter.

As long as a swordsman’s cultivation was sufficient, he could activate the cold energy in his sword to enter the enemy’s body. Once the sword energy entered his body, if there was no solution within a short period of time, his entire body would condense blood and freeze to death. It could be said to be extremely terrifying.

At this moment, the people outside the plaza were even more nervous. Although there were a few elders present today, Fu Ling would not be in trouble, but the other party had such a Divine Weapon Immortal Sword in her hand, so it was difficult for her to get close to them. How could she get the jade Ruyi from the other party’s hand?

“Please!”

Ruan Fu Ling’s eyes were ice-cold. Even in the face of such a divine weapon, he was still not afraid. With a slash of his finger, a light immortal sword appeared beside him. This sword was called “Light Shadow”. Although it was used by a woman, it was still quite powerful under her Xuan Qing Dao Art Imperial Envoy.

“Zheng!”

With a howl of the sword, Ruan Fu Ling had already attacked Liu Chengfeng with her sword. However, when she saw the profound light on the sword increase greatly, it was shining with her red robe. It was as brilliant as the clouds on the horizon. The entire square immediately surged with sword qi, causing all the disciples in the distance to feel stifled. Her sword strike was sharp. If she could not get close to Liu Chengfeng’s body, it would be a little unpleasant.

Outside the distant wall, Yichen was also watching with rapt attention. He thought to himself that this senior sister wanted to compete with the other party in terms of profound strength when she made a move. Later on, she was afraid that she would suffer a loss. He did not show any signs of emotion as he peeled off the pine nuts as he watched slowly.

“Zheng! Zheng! Zheng!”

Ruan Fu Ling had already broken through the three layers of cold air outside Liu Chengfeng with three successive sharp sounds. As he approached inside, he saw Liu Chengfeng’s finger condense and say “Go”. The frost immediately turned into a sharp light and flew over. With a “clang” sound, the two immortal swords clashed together, causing a gust of wind to shake the nearby tree branches and leaves.

The elders on the stage watched with rapt attention. They could clearly see that Fu Ling was struggling to hold on with just a single move. In terms of dao, she was still inferior to Cangfeng Valley, a rising star. In addition, the frost and cold energy was too heavy. Once layers of cold energy surrounded her, she would undoubtedly be defeated!

Clang!

With another sharp sound, Ruan Fu Ling was pushed back by Liu Chengfeng’s sword strike, but he still did not retreat. After he stood still, he formed a sword seal in his left hand and charged forward with another sword strike. Wherever the sword qi went, grass, wood, and rocks flew. However, after fighting for half an incense stick, it would be difficult for him to get the jade ruyi in Liu Chengfeng’s hand, even if he wanted to get close to it.

Not far away, Ye Runian watched the battle quietly. He thought to himself that although Junior Brother Liu had entered the sect late and his cultivation was inferior to his own, his talent was even better than his own back then. No wonder Master valued her so highly. Although this woman surnamed Ruan’s talent was not bad, it was almost impossible to obtain Jade Ruyi from him.

Outside the distant wall, Yi Chen also watched quietly. He thought to himself that this Senior Sister would charge forward every time. Once her profound strength was exhausted, she would undoubtedly lose. Even though she knew that her cultivation was inferior to the other, she still insisted on using her own shortcomings to attack him. It was really strange. If it was him, he would definitely not fight like this. However, what did this have to do with a disciple who had just entered the sect for three years? He was still leisurely peeling the pine nuts and slowly watching.

Sword Qi surged in the arena. The cold air was cold. Seeing that Liu was so powerful, many disciples outside gradually felt their hearts start to hang. Suddenly, Ruan Fu Ling leapt backwards and threw his sword into the air. He continuously formed incantations with both of his hands. He also chanted, “Limitless Heaven and Earth, Cosmos-Ten Thousand Sword Technique!”

As the last word fell, the original Immortal Sword suddenly had two lives, two lives and four lives. In an instant, the sword shadows overlapped and almost covered half of the square. Many disciples in the distance cried out in shock, “Ten Thousand Sword Technique! Senior Sister has already mastered the Ten Thousand Sword Technique!”

The expressions of the elders on the stage suddenly changed. Ruan Fu Ling was in midair, his face extremely pale, and his body trembled from the overdrafting of his profound strength. The Ten Thousand Sword Technique was a high-grade Dao Art of Xuanqing Sect. Although it was extremely powerful, she had managed to use it reluctantly. If she was careless, she might be able to injure herself.

“Go!”

Just as everyone was paying attention, Ruan Fu Ling finally finished casting his spell. However, when he saw the sword shadows in the sky, they instantly transformed into millions of golden sword qi and slashed towards Liu Chengfeng like a raging sea. How could he still be a friend of the Dao? As the terrifying sword qi surged, many of the disciples who were far away were pushed back.

However, Liu Chengfeng’s expression remained calm as he continued to form seals in his hands. In an instant, three ice walls appeared in front of him, “Bang!” As the first wave of sword qi slashed over, the first ice wall immediately collapsed, followed by the second ice wall shattered under the supreme dao technique.

Seeing that there was only the last ice wall left, everyone held their breath. The hearts of the elders on the platform were hanging in their throats, and two of them even stood up from their seats.

Clang!

A loud sound rang out. The last wave of golden sword energy slashed onto the ice wall, causing only a dozen cracks to appear on the ice wall. At this moment, both the wind and the people were quiet. Outside the distant wall, Yi Chen also stood up from the tree and stared fixedly at the golden sword energy surging in the sky. Was this the Xuanqing Dao Art?

Although he had learned a powerful sword technique in the past three years, it was still difficult for him to cultivate such a powerful dao technique because of his lack of dao skills. If he could also use such an astonishing dao technique, how good would that be? Three years from now, he will be able to represent his master to participate in the Heavenly Gate Martial Arts Association. He knows that no matter how powerful his swordsmanship is, his cultivation is not enough. He will be knocked down by a few powerful Dao Arts on stage. He is not qualified to participate in the Heavenly Gate Martial Arts Association’s competition …

At this moment, the entire square was shrouded in sword qi and cold qi. In the blink of an eye, victory and defeat were imminent. Everyone held their breath and focused. Suddenly, Ruan Fu Ling’s sword scripture rushed out again. The sword qi that filled the sky suddenly gathered together and with a “rumble”, it finally broke through Liu Chengfeng’s last ice wall defense.

“Junior Brother …”

At this moment, even Ye Runian, who was in the distance, couldn’t help but be slightly shocked. He suddenly remembered what his master had told him repeatedly before he left. The Xuanqing Dao Art could not be underestimated. It seemed that this was indeed the case. Even though his junior brother’s Dao was above that woman, his defense had been broken.

In the next instant, Ruan Fu Ling caught the immortal sword falling from midair. She didn’t even care about recovering her true essence and suddenly attacked Liu Chengfeng. This time, she used a light footwork technique that was as good as water from the Heavenly Jade bloodline.

The phantom images overlapped in midair, making it difficult to distinguish between the real and the real. Every step Ruan Fu Ling took seemed to teleport a hundred steps, and in the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Liu Chengfeng.

However, just as the outcome was about to be decided, Liu Chengfeng’s figure suddenly disappeared. In the next instant, he appeared like a ghost. He kicked Ruan Fu Ling in the lower abdomen. With a “bang”, this kick was not light. In addition, Ruan Fu Ling had already lost too much energy. He was unable to withstand it at this moment, and his entire body flew backwards like willow catkins in the wind.

“Senior Sister!” Everyone in the distance was shocked. The hearts of the elders on the stage sank, and the outcome was decided.

“Uh …”

When he landed on the ground, Ruan Fu Ling finally couldn’t hold on. A trace of blood spilled out from the corner of his mouth. Seeing this, everyone in the distance reprimanded Liu Chengfeng for attacking too heavily. However, Liu Chengfeng only snorted coldly and said in his heart, “The Dao Art of Xuan Qing is nothing more than that.”

The reason he thought so was because he didn’t see the scene when Daoist Qingxuan used the Universe Ten Thousand Sword Technique.

Seeing his arrogant expression, everyone angrily reprimanded him. Some people looked at Ruan Fu Ling and said regretfully, “If this senior sister had just used the Ling Xianbu from Venerable Yao Guang, the outcome would still be unknown …”

“Hmph.” When Liu Chengfeng heard this, his heart became even more arrogant. He coldly said, “Although Fairy Miaoyin’s Dao Art is profound, she may not necessarily be the number one in the world.”

His words weren’t spoken in a low voice. Everyone in the distance was stunned. Could it be that there were still people who dared to look down on Venerable Yao Guang? Ye Runian’s expression changed drastically. He immediately said in a deep voice, “Junior Brother … you mustn’t speak nonsense!”

The expressions of the elders on the platform became even uglier. First, because the ignorant disciple had just said nonsense that if he used the footwork of the Venerable Yao Guang, he would not lose. Second, because Liu Chengfeng was too arrogant, and now they had nothing to do.

“You dare to speak ill of Master …”

Outside the distant wall, Yi Chen suddenly broke a pine stick from the tree and grabbed a handful of pine nuts. With a push of his strength, a pine nut shot towards Liu Chengfeng with a “whoosh” sound.

Liu Chengfeng sensed the strong wind coming from the shadows and reacted so quickly. He flicked his finger and a cold energy shot out, immediately shattering the pine nuts into powder. He shouted coldly, “What rat! Sneak attack here!”

His words caused the surrounding people to become even angrier. This was the Xuan Qing Sect, who else could there be besides the Xuan Qing Sect? What do you mean a rat? Originally, it was reasonable to say that no third person could interfere today, but at this moment, all the disciples actually hoped that a senior brother with high cultivation would teach this arrogant brat a lesson.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

Suddenly, three more sounds of wind rang out. Liu Chengfeng hurriedly circulated his Immortal Sword to block it. However, the wind became more and more intense. Concealed weapons seemed to come from all directions, making him unable to handle it. When the wind passed, he saw that his feet were already filled with pine nuts. What kind of powerful concealed weapon was it? It was clearly pine nuts on the tree.

“This …”

Everyone couldn’t help but look at each other and subconsciously looked at a thousand-year-old ancient pine outside the plaza wall. At this moment, a figure suddenly arrived, so fast that almost everyone couldn’t see it clearly.
