Chapter 294: Defeat and Settlement
Chapter 294: Defeat and Settlement
After the battle of magic, the two began to fight with their spiritual power. As a dark child, Yu Xuqiu stepped on many peers to rise to the top, so of course he would not have any weaknesses.
One of them overwhelmed the other heroes, stood alone and proudly, fought his way out, and reached the top; the other was tortured by resentment, constantly wandering between life and death, and finally became an alien that should not have existed. The two of them confronted each other, and the invisible power of their spiritual consciousness collided, forming a terrifying and raging aura with the two of them as the center.
Everything in the aura was twisting, tearing, and collapsing. The entire arena was filled with ripples as the space could no longer bear the weight.
Quintu and the other two had already retreated far away. Mingzi's full-strength attack made them realize the huge gap between them. In fact, most of the Dark Realm cultivators were alarmed and rushed to watch as fast as they could.
When powerful monks fight, they usually seek a deserted place to avoid causing casualties to unrelated people.
Although the Blood Killing Hall was covered by a formation, the aftermath of the two people's battle would basically not spread out. However, the fight between Yu Xuqiu and Jian Yi was close to 50% of the terrifying destructive power of a powerful cultivator, and the formation could not completely cover it up. Part of the fluctuations had already rushed out of the formation and were known to the cultivators outside.
Wu Qinghuan and his good friend Jiang Rou were also watching the battle outside. Although the distance was far, with the eyesight of a cultivator at the Earth Gang Realm, they could still see it clearly.
"Does he really have the strength to rival Mingzi?!" Jiang Rou muttered to herself in disbelief. Not long ago, Jian Yi showed his strength, which made them feel the difference in strength between them, but it was hard to say whether he could fight Mingzi.
The two of them had limited strength, so they naturally couldn't judge. But a person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. The Mingzi climbed to the top by stepping on the corpses of their opponents. That was a monument built by countless achievements.
Deep down, they couldn't believe that this person could be compared with Mingzi.
"Will our Holy Church have an eighth Hades?" The onlookers talked about it and exclaimed in amazement.
"Who is this person? I've never heard of him before!"
"It was brought back by Venerable Ghost Infant. I heard that he was captured by the three major spirit tribes and took the initiative to ask for help from Venerable."
"This boy is really scary. I'm afraid the other Mingzi will be alarmed now."
"Don't be distracted, watch this battle carefully. This kind of powerful confrontation between Hades is rare and can only be seen once in decades!"
……
The monks watching from outside were very excited. On the dilapidated arena, the two sides fought fiercely with their spiritual consciousness, but there was still no winner.
Afterwards, Yu Xuqiu took out his famous magic weapon, a silver spear.
This magic weapon is forged from rare secret gold and engraved with profound seal characters, which greatly enhances its power. Yu Xuqiu holds a gun against the enemy, looking heroic, like a god of war descending to the world.
He held a spear in his hand, his fighting spirit surged, his eyes were like lightning, and he looked arrogant and domineering. Many female cultivators watching the battle had their eyes sparkling with wonder and fell in love with him secretly.
Yu Xuqiu attacked fiercely, his gun shot out like a dragon, gun shadows were everywhere, and the fierce murderous intent attacked Jian Yi like an overwhelming force.
With magical weapons in hand, no matter it is wind blade, stone wall, fire dragon, ice spear, they all collapse at the touch of a button and cannot stop this god of war for a moment.
Only thunder magic could make Yu Xuqiu a little afraid, but this was not enough to make up for Jian Yi's lack of magic weapon. For a moment, Jian Yi was completely at a disadvantage.
"Puff!" Jian Yi would lose the opportunity if he defended for too long. He made a careless move and a hole was pierced in his left shoulder by the spear, and blood splattered all over the sky.
The monks watching could not help but reveal a look of understanding. Yu Xuqiu had been famous for a long time, and his strength was terrifying. He also carried the title of Mingzi, and was the face of the Holy Church. Reasonably, they did not want to see the strong man they had admired and pursued for many years suddenly being defeated by a completely unfamiliar monk and falling from the altar.
Moreover, at this time when the Holy Church is being besieged and attacked by the Immortal Sect many times, this will undermine the confidence of the monks in the church.
Jian Yi lowered his head and looked at the hole on his left shoulder, not caring about it. He raised his head and looked at Yu Xuqiu opposite him, and said lightly: "It's time to end it. I'm tired of playing."
As soon as these words came out, Yu Xuqiu, who was originally confident of winning, changed his expression slightly, and the hand holding the silver spear tightened unconsciously. Because he suddenly sensed a strong and dangerous aura from Jian Yi. Could it be that he has not used his full strength yet? No, this is absolutely impossible!
"Before I embarked on the path of cultivation, I tried to comprehend the illusory meaning of boxing with the body of a mortal boy." Jian Yi seemed to be talking to himself.
"Throwing fists 10,000 times a day is just the beginning. In order to be one step ahead of my junior brother and maintain my position as the senior brother, the sweat, numbness and pain I have shed are really incredible when I think about it now."
“I actually persisted.”
"Will there be rewards for trying hard, struggling, and giving it my all? Maybe. After countless punches, my body has been imprinted with instincts. Even if I fall asleep while standing, my body will not stop moving. Unfortunately, just when I had some insights and was about to grasp something mysterious, an accident suddenly occurred. After that, I was no longer a mortal."
"In fact, I am very curious. If there had not been that accident and everything had gone as usual, with a mortal body, after truly grasping that mysterious state of mind, what kind of strength could I have exerted?!"
After Jian Yi finished speaking, he looked at Yu Xuqiu who was facing a formidable enemy, and said slowly: "Let you feel it for yourself. This is the boxing move I learned after throwing punches countless times."
Jian Yi solemnly took a stance with a stern expression, then slowly raised his fist with gentle movements, as if he was practicing Tai Chi.
Yu Xuqiu's face changed drastically in an instant. The monks watching the battle from outside might not notice anything unusual, but as he was facing Jian Yi, he could see that Jian Yi had merged with the space behind him. There, it had turned into a dark galaxy with twinkling stars. It was mysterious, unpredictable, out of reach, and frightening. He felt deeply insignificant.
As Jian Yi slowly swung his fist, a vast galaxy pressed down on him like a mountain. This was not facing one person or one punch, but a void, an independent little world.
When the fist is thrown, an illusion is created, and under the trend, there is no escape!
"Ha!" How could Yu Xuqiu just sit there and wait to die? Realizing that he was facing a life-and-death crisis, he no longer held back. He put away his silver spear and folded his arms across his chest.
"Use the sky as a furnace, the earth as fire, melt all laws, cast a golden body, and walk on the sky!" Yu Xuqiu's whole body burst out with a violent aura like a storm, and a ball of purple spiritual energy gathered in front of him, and the violent spiritual power inside was like boiling water, which could explode at any time!
Outside the ring, in a hidden corner somewhere.
"Yu Xuqiu is going to lose." said a powerful monk who was slightly fat.
“Well, not only will he lose, but even if he doesn’t die, he will most likely be seriously injured, leaving behind indelible hidden scars,” another person responded.
"We must stop it. Mingzi cannot lose in front of everyone!"
"That's how it should be!"
……
"Void Power!"
"All things return to one, and nirvana returns to death!"
The two were about to make their final move and the ultimate clash was about to happen. Suddenly, Jian Yi's face changed, and a vicious force surged through his body, causing his condensed momentum to dissipate.
"Puff..." Jian Yi spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Damn it, it's that bone-eroding pill." Jian Yi suddenly came to his senses.
"Boom!" The entire dark domain shook slightly, and the dazzling light enveloped the entire arena, like a blooming sun. The devastating shock wave radiated outward. Even though there was a formation blocking it, a considerable amount of power spilled out.
"what!"
"what!"
Among the spectators, some cultivators at the first and second levels of the Earthly Realm were careless and were blown away by the shock wave, looking extremely embarrassed. Fortunately, a powerful cultivator secretly took action in time, so most people were not affected, and the mortal area of the Dark Realm was not affected either.
After the light gradually faded away, everyone's eyes fell on the ring. The winner had been decided.
Yu Xuqiu was sweating profusely, his face was pale, and he was panting like an ox, but he still stood on the ring. Although it was called a ring, it had already disappeared, leaving only a huge deep pit in its place.
Outside the ring, Jian Yi fell on his back, motionless!
"Yuxuqiu wins!"
"Sure enough, it's Mingzi after all. But that guy is really amazing, even though he lost, it's still an honor. Even if he becomes the eighth Mingzi of the Holy Church, I'm afraid not many people will object."
"Too terrifying. A powerful being like him can actually possess such strength. He is simply beyond the reach of us."
"To be able to force Yu Xuqiu to this point, this person must be proud enough."
……
Everyone started to make a noise, but Jian Yi looked dazed, staring at the sky, with a trace of pain and confusion in his eyes.
He did not feel sorry for his defeat. If someone had not interfered secretly just now, Yu Xuqiu would have been disabled if not dead. Yu Xuqiu was not a stupid man, he could feel it himself.
The problem is that no matter what the reason is, he lost in the end. According to the previous agreement, he can't mention that matter again. Wu Qinghuan, it turns out, is not the person destined for him.
This is where he felt lost. He was not afraid of death, it was just a clone. But...
Jian Yi was in mixed emotions, but Yu Xuqiu on the stage was walking towards him slowly with heavy steps.
He stopped beside Jian Yi, his shadow casting a shadow that just fell on Jian Yi.
"What happened just now?" he said weakly. Yu Xuqiu thought he would lose without a doubt and he was about to fall from the altar. But he didn't know what happened to Jian Yi, and that punch suddenly lost a lot of power.
"Is there any point in asking these questions? Let's get started!" Jian Yi smiled contemptuously and said indifferently.
"What a courage! I will remember you, my powerful enemy." A strange color flashed in Yuxuqiu's eyes. If the other party had not offended him and threatened his sister, he really wouldn't mind drinking and chatting with the other party and walking together on the road of cultivation.
People in the Holy Church do things according to their heart. Even if the opponent's strength is greater than his and his victory was pure luck, he has no psychological burden to get rid of this terrible opponent in public.
Jian Yi closed his eyes and remained silent.
The monks watching the scene finally realized that Yu Xuqiu was going to kill this man in public. This was not a competition, but a battle of life and death. Most people felt sorry that this man, who was so powerful, was going to die here today. Many people whispered to each other, asking about the life-and-death feud between the two.
Seeing this, Wu Qinghuan and Jiang Rou secretly turned their heads away, unable to bear to watch the bloody scene that followed. They had long advised him not to anger Mingzi, and had long let him escape, but he insisted on doing it. Now, he is suffering the consequences. Wu Qinghuan felt a little reluctant, but she could do nothing about it. If her father was here, she could ask him to help plead for mercy.
Pity……
Just when Yu Xuqiu was about to kill, his expression suddenly froze and his brows frowned.
A great Saint had sent a secret message to stop him from killing this man. But, keeping him alive would be unfair to his sister. He was a huge threat, and he didn't want his sister to live in fear from then on.
The powerful man sent a message again, saying that Yu Lin'er would be protected from now on, and no one could hurt her. Yu Xuqiu was still a little hesitant. Killing this man would solve the problem once and for all, which was a hundred times better than the so-called protection.
But the next words from the powerful monk completely dispelled his thoughts.
It was the Ghost Doctor's intention to spare this man's life.
……
Xu Feng took Fu Yuehe and Miss Su Ying on the road for two months before leaving the Western Region and entering the Northern Region. Then they continued to travel for nearly three months before arriving at the northernmost part of the Northern Region, a place called Xiaxian Town.
After such a long period of running around and working hard, if Xu Feng had not secretly helped them, the two girls would probably have been miserable and developed illnesses.
The northernmost region is bitterly cold, with thin spiritual energy and few people, but Xiaxian Town is an exception. There are several volcanoes not far from the town, and the underground heat waves drive away most of the cold air in the northern region. Although this place is remote, it is a rare warm and livable place.
Xu Feng finally chose to settle here. He first bought a medium-sized house at a high price and settled the two women there. Then, he hired a few mortal guards and secretly tested them with some tricks. After confirming that they were reliable, he planned to explain everything to Fu Yuehe.
"Yuehe, you and Miss Suying should stay here for the time being and try to reduce going out. If you need anything, tell the guards. I need to return to Chiyun City to resolve the aftermath. If everything goes well, it may only take me half a month to get back. If, if something changes, I will definitely be back in two or three months at most." Xu Feng comforted softly.
The spiritual energy here is thin, there are cultivators, but not many, the most powerful is only the third level of the human element realm. Safety is not a big problem.
Even though it took them nearly five months to get here, if Xu Feng went all out, he would probably be able to get back to Chiyun City in seven or eight days. However, he had to consider his own injuries after killing Sikong Hongyu.
"Brother Xu, do you still want to go back?! Don't go, don't leave again, okay? You promised." Upon hearing this, Fu Yuehe nervously grabbed Xu Feng's sleeve, her eyes moist and her face full of pleading.
"This is the last time, really. If Sikong Hongyu is not dead, there will be endless troubles. Sooner or later she will come to us. Instead of waiting to die, it is better to take the initiative. Only by getting rid of her can we rest assured in the future." Xu Feng persuaded patiently.
"Don't worry, she is no match for me right now. Now is the best time."
"No, it won't happen. The Fourth Miss is a very clever woman, and you won't be able to get her so easily. Brother Xu, please don't go back, okay? We have finally left there, and we have walked so far, the Fourth Miss will not be able to find us." Fu Yuehe said.
Xu Feng frowned slightly. Fu Yuehe was not a cultivator, so it was difficult for him to explain to her the bloodline tracking technique and other cultivation methods.
"Brother Xu, even if the Fourth Miss is not your opponent now, she still has so many subordinates. What if, what if she finds other helpers? Also, we have been away for such a long time. What if you rush back and the Fourth Miss is not in Chiyun City? She didn't often stay in the mansion before." Fu Yuehe continued to persuade.
Xu Feng's mind moved. He didn't care about Sikong Hongyu's subordinates. Looking for help? Unless she could invite a strong man in the Earthly Realm, he would not be afraid. But not in Scarlet Cloud City...
Thinking about it carefully, it was not impossible. He had accidentally heard her subordinates mention that Sikong Hongyu was planning to go to the main city of the Western Region to deal with important matters.
