The Earth Is My Dantian - Chapter 112
Chapter 112 Chapter 25, Fire Qilin (1st update)
Before the great battle began, the wind and the cranes were jittery. The wind and the yellow sand were no longer mischievous and obediently stopped.
Between Heaven and earth, there was silence.
Boom!
Mu Ran’s voice shook. It came from King Ye. His sleeves fluttered in the wind, and his expression was cold. He had finally displayed his might as the number one in the world.
A huge hand that blotted out the sky was suffused with golden light. It covered the heaven and earth, pressing down until the void collapsed. The heaven and earth trembled, wanting to kill the sword-wielding old man with a single slap.
Duke ye was bullying the sword-wielding old man because his body was in decline and he couldn’t withstand the overwhelming mountain-pulling Qi attack.
At this moment, a strange image appeared behind Duke Ye. An invincible phantom enveloped the entire yellow sand ancient path, as if it had crossed the nine-tiered Heaven Immortal Gate. It was tall and vast, possessing boundless might.
This attack also caused the breathing of the surrounding people to stagnate.
It was too powerful.
It was like a Millstone of heaven and earth, crushing over. Regardless of whether it was a person or anything, if they dared to block it, they would definitely be crushed.
The sword-wielding old man narrowed his eyes as he watched this move. In his eyes, he could see the smoke of essence qi between heaven and earth.
Although King Ye was close to seventy years old, his body was at its peak. He was like an eternal God. With a slight movement, the smoke of Essence Qi could fill an army of a million.
He stood at the peak of martial arts in the world.
The light in the sword-wielding old man’s eyes flickered. After forty years, Lord ye had really grown too much. Back then, he still needed to use words to urge the sword-wielding old man to come out of seclusion ahead of time. But now, he could wait for the sword-wielding old man to come and provoke him.
“You’ve grown so much. I’m not bad either,”the sword-wielding old man muttered. He reached out and patted the lame horse beneath him, causing the horse to let out a neigh. Suddenly, it began to run.
The lame horse began to run. Its posture was laughable, but its speed was astonishing. The horse did not run towards King Ye. Instead, it charged towards the palm that seemed to be falling from the sky.
Boom!
As it ran, the horse let out a long neigh, shaking the heaven and earth. It gave off a tremor that was like an avalanche.
The large golden hand exploded with a bang amidst the neigh of the lame horse.
King ye frowned. His move was actually not made by the sword-wielding old man, but by a lame horse?
King ye was not the only one who was surprised. The surrounding onlookers all widened their eyes.
This horse was very thin, very old, and even lame. How could it have such terrifying strength?
The sword-wielding old man sat on the horse’s back, he said indifferently, “Ye Hong, back then, you entered the Hundred Thousand Mountains to temper yourself and encountered a qilin. You wanted to capture it back and use it as your mount, but the qilin refused no matter what. You attacked in anger and broke one of the qilin’s legs.”
King ye said in surprise, “This lame horse is the qilin from back then?”
When he said this, everyone became excited. The auspicious qilin was a king amongst demons. It was born noble, and the birth of a qilin signified good fortune.
However, how could the qilin be turned into a lame horse?
The lame horse that everyone was looking at suddenly roared into the sky.
Roar Roar Roar!
The sound was thick, and it wasn’t the neighing of a horse. Instead, it was the rich aura of a king.
Flames burned on the crippled horse’s body. That was the qilin sacred flame. It burned the crippled horse in an instant, revealing its true body.
Fire Qilin.
From its appearance, the lion head, antlers, tiger eyes, elk body, dragon scales, and ox tail were all one.
Flames burned on its four hooves, and one of its legs was crippled. It was the leg that King Ye had broken back then.
The qilin had the ability to regenerate, and the crippled leg could be recovered. However, the fire qilin was unwilling to do so. It was awe-inspiring as it said in a low voice, “Ye Hong, you broke one of my legs back then, and I will break one of yours today.”
“Back then, you were unwilling to be my mount no matter what. You would rather die than submit. How did you become someone else’s Mount Today?”Lord ye mocked.
The fire qilin mocked in a human-like manner, “You, Ye Hong, have a cold heart. You only want to reach the peak of martial arts. Being your mount, other than being raised by you, what other benefits do you have?”
“What About You Now? Following him around aimlessly and becoming a horse, have you had an easy life?”King ye said indifferently.
“Ye Hong, you are a genius, but you are too extreme. You Don’t understand many emotions in the world. Perhaps you don’t want to understand them. You Believe in power, but power will bite you back. I followed the old master and learned how to enter the world. In these forty years, I finally understand the meaning of living beings existing in this world, “the fire qilin said.
“So, are you guys going to besiege me now?”King ye said with a disdainful smile.
Although he was facing the sword-wielding old man and the fire qilin, he was not afraid at all. The invincible figure behind him became more and more solid. The terrifying aura was like a huge wave that spread out in succession.
Rumble!
The yellow sand was swept up, forming a small sandstorm that raged in all directions.
The fire qilin and the sword-wielding old man were unmoved, the sword-wielding old man said indifferently, “This body of mine is damaged and rotten. I can’t even launch a single attack. Furthermore, I haven’t cultivated my divine soul, so I can’t fight with my divine soul separated from my body. I can be said to have no combat ability at all.”
King ye looked at him noncommittally.
Ye Sheng, however, said in surprise, “Without any combat ability, then why is he still coming?”
Priest Qingxu shook his head and said, “The sword-wielding old man and King ye are actually the same kind of people. They pursue the pinnacle of martial arts, and they don’t hesitate to give up their lives for this. The difference is that King ye has lost his humanity and placed martial arts first, while the sword-wielding old man is wallowing in the Mortal World and comprehending martial
arts.”
Ye Sheng seemed to understand, but he didn’t. These realms were too profound. He was only at the Seventh Heaven of the acquired realm, and the distance was too far.
The fire qilin spat out flames from its nose, and a smell of sulfur pervaded the air, it said, “The old master’s body had already failed ten years ago. Over the years, I bled every year to extend the old master’s life. Until not long ago, I also felt that my life was approaching, and my body couldn’t maintain its peak anymore. I could only gradually decline, so I came to Xianyang with the old master to seek revenge on you back then, and also to taste the taste of the number one title in the world.”
Countless people were astonished. The second in the world and the fire qilin were actually rolling around in the mortal world, losing their lifespans.
What exactly were they trying to comprehend that was so draining on their lives?
Duke ye said calmly, “Therefore, two master and servant who are about to die came to help me hone my martial arts. It’s really not bad.”
The sword-wielding old man smiled slightly and reached out to touch the sword hanging on the fire qilin’s back, he said with nostalgia, “I haven’t used a sword in forty years, but in my heart, I’ve slashed thirteen times. I’ve been comprehending swords for nearly a hundred years just to slash thirteen times today.”
“Life, thirteen times!”The old man with the sword drew out his long sword.
The long sword that had been sealed for forty years slowly drew out from his hand.
Clang!
A clear sound that hadn’t been heard for a long time resounded through the world.
Countless sword intents burst out. The virtual longsword in the entire ancient yellow sand road condensed and disintegrated. This was a supreme sword intent.
The sword-wielding old man held the longsword and closed his eyes. “Ye Hong, Sheng, thirteen swords. Please experience them!”
Rumble!
The sword intent on the sword-wielding old man’s body was like lightning, sweeping through the sky. His body slowly flew up, and the yellow sand around him swept up.
The hair of the sword-wielding old man fluttered in the wind, and a trace of sharpness appeared on his old face. Suddenly, with a bang, his body exploded.
The entire sky was filled with countless sword intents, and that sword was also there.
The surrounding spectators watched in astonishment. was the sword-wielding old man dead?
When the fire qilin saw this scene, it leaped up and spat out flames. It flew up into the air, and with a bang, it also exploded.
Sword Qi, qilin blood, and flames intertwined with each other.
Slowly, they gathered into a virtual human figure that was a thousand feet tall. His aura was unparalleled, and the pressure made everyone’s breathing quicken.
The sword-wielding old man.
