Chapter 440: On Top of the Immortal Kingdom (2)
Blood Flesh Divine Being isn’t attacking and destroying the Nine Immortal Cities, it is climbing up the mountain step by step, higher and higher.
"His obsession may still be within the Blood Flesh Divine Being, and it should be the strongest obsession in the Blood Flesh Divine Being. This Blood Flesh Divine Being should still be largely influenced by him."
"So, where he wants to go isn’t the Blood Lotus Immortal City at the mountain top, but rather…" Wu Qizheng spoke slowly:
"Blood Lotus Sect!"
As his words trailed off.
Wu Qizheng used his lightness skill, following the direction where the Blood Flesh Divine Being was moving, decisively and straightforwardly.
This surprised Wu Jing.
……………………………………………….
This time Death Assessment: C (cannon fodder, cannon fodder~)
Lifespan consumed by death: 200 (2*100) years
Remaining resurrection chances this week: 1/5
Current age: 5585 years old
Health: 99%
"There is one last chance for revival."
In the dream world, Qiao Mu’s mind sank into the depths of the Long Life Lock, with a blank expression on his face.
The evaluation of repeated deaths is often not very high, this is the experience he gained after many reckless actions before.
"So, what should we do next?"
Qiao Mu relaxed his body and fell back.
In the moment of falling, the hard ground instantly transformed into a lush green grassland.
He placed his arms behind his head, expressionless, pondering his next move.
Blame it on his excellent agility, he had too much True strength.
Traveling all the way from Nan Province to the heart of Zhong Province using the Heavenly Dragon Eight Steps Dragon Transforming Step took about four to five days.
At this moment, there are still about two days left until the opportunity to respawn refreshes.
In other words, if he chooses to play it safe, he could hide on the side and wait it out.
Two days later, another hero would rise…
"Let’s think of a plan to deal with Martial Saint."
Qiao Mu put this problem aside.
His most powerful move is the Heavenly Slashing Swordsmanship passed down by Earth Sword Immortal.
This move combines all of his sword skills, so the stronger Qiao Mu is and the more True strength he has, the more powerful the Heavenly Slashing Swordsmanship becomes.
Heavenly Slashing Swordsmanship is the signature move that made Earth Sword Immortal famous, making him known as the top martial artist in Jiu Province.
The white-clothed Spear Saint learned the ultimate move "Birds Adoring the Phoenix Spear" from Heavenly Slashing Swordsmanship. The concepts of Jingwei filling the sea are similar, but not quite as powerful.
In other words…. Heavenly Slashing Swordsmanship is currently the peak move in Jiu Province martial arts.
No one has surpassed it in decades, and no one can match its explosive power.
Even Martial Saint, who created Taotie Martial Art, and his seventy-two wise men cannot match it.
So now, Earth Sword Immortal still holds the top spot in the Skill List, considered the greatest talent in Jiu Province.
Qiao Mu has already tried this move, it can hurt the Blood Flesh Divine Being, but it’s not enough.
Qiao Mu only has one more chance to come back to life.
One more Heavenly Slashing Swordsmanship, or maybe two more, would that be enough?
Qiao Mu is feeling unsure.
After consuming two of Qiao Mu’s bodies in a row, along with many Human Demon clones, the current Blood Flesh Divine Being is now a colossal nightmare.
Those unable to resist him will become his food, merging with him.
"This is a bit tricky, is there any way to increase my strength several times over in the next two hundred years?"
Qiao Mu mutters under his breath.
The last time Qiao Mu faced such a tricky situation was in Nan Province Qingming Medicine Valley, when he was under pressure from Xuantian Sect Taoist Lord’s Cave Heaven Small World.
Last time, the Long Life Dream of two thousand five hundred years made it difficult for Qiao Mu to come up with a perfect solution.
This time, Qiao Mu has two hundred years.
"Thinking won’t help, let’s practice first."
Qiao Mu reviewed all the martial arts he had learned so far, trying to find a solution.
From his memory, he took out the twelve sets of sonic martial arts gifted by Founding Emperor Yan and looked through them.
These twelve sets of sonic martial arts, ranging from basic to advanced, were among the best in the world of sonic martial arts.
Two of them, "Po Yue Long Yin Gong" and "Tian Ming Shen Gang," had already been perfected by Founding Emperor Yan in their True strength versions, capable of harming cultivators in the sky.
But would they really be useful?
Qiao Mu still has no idea.
"Give it a try…"
Over the past two hundred years, he tried his best to find a way to deal with the Blood Flesh Divine Being.
…………………………….
When Qiao Mu delved into his mind, he immediately felt that the twelve sets of sonic martial arts bestowed by Founding Emperor Yan were truly a great gift.
Sonic martial arts, along with the Eye Attacking Technique, were the main attacking methods used by Jiu Province Spirit Refining martial artists before the appearance of the "Divine Transformation Technique".
For example, the "Eye Sword Technique" that Qiao Mu was good at before was a kind of Eye Attacking Technique derived from the Sword Ghost of the Spirit Refining martial artist.
Whether it’s the Eye Attacking Technique or the sonic martial arts, they are both ways to use the overpowering "spirit" of the Spirit Refining martial artist as a means of attack.
When a martial artist’s spiritual refinement reaches the 1st rank, their mental strength is so strong that it can distort reality, manipulating objects outside of themselves, such as making flying knives change direction.
The two martial arts, "Po Yue Long Yin Gong" and "Tian Ming Shen Gang", have both undergone the interpretation of the True Strength version by Founding Emperor Yan.
Now, Qiao Mu is studying these twelve martial arts from shallow to deep, following the path of improving techniques set by Founding Emperor Yan, and suddenly he sees the key.
"God."
"God is the key."
"The essence of Spiritual Refining Martial Art is the attempt to use god to distort reality and influence external objects."
"The ‘Eye Sword Technique’ uses sight as a medium to turn intangible ‘god’ into a weapon to harm others!"
"Po Yue Long Yin Gong uses sound waves as a medium…"
"With a sharp intent to kill, eyes can turn into invisible deadly weapons! Sounds can also affect the heart and courage from a distance!"
"It’s not just about having advanced spiritual refining skills, a casual glance won’t automatically become a sword."
"In this, emotions, subjective consciousness, intentions, and spiritual involvement play a part."
A powerful Spirit Refining martial artist is like a fierce tiger.
When acting cute, he becomes a Siberian kitten.
When roaring, he becomes the king of all beasts.
The "Divine Transformation Technique" developed by Qiao Mu later on, represents a different approach, combining godliness with internal strength.
The strength of True strength is related to martial arts techniques and the depth of True strength’s power.
"It should also be related to ‘god’," Qiao Mu looked at the martial arts manual in his hand, and sighed:
"Therefore, Founding Emperor Yan said, the key to this martial arts lies in the spiritual aspect, whether it’s ‘Po Yue Long Yin Gong’ or ‘Tian Ming Shen Gang’."
"’Po Yue Long Yin Gong’ imitates the roar of a dragon through the human throat, flattening mountains with one roar…"
Of course, this is just an exaggerated description.
The so-called dragon roar is not the real roar of a dragon, because neither Founding Emperor Yan nor the creator of "Po Yue Long Yin Gong" has ever seen a real dragon.
The key is not how the dragon’s roar sounds, but the majestic aura of a real dragon roaring and causing mountains to flatten.
"’重在神意’ These words indeed add the finishing touch to the painting of the dragon, worthy of being the martial arts leader three hundred years ago," Qiao Mu sighed:
"No wonder Founding Emperor Yan’s martial arts have greatly improved, advancing by leaps and bounds."
"His breakthrough in mentality is not as great as the breakthrough in quality of internal strength triggered by the Divine Transformation Technique, with progress being smaller."
When Founding Emperor Yan was defeated by Qiao Mu under the identity of "Qiao Jin," exposed his mental weakness, broke his pride, and then became more courageous after setbacks, dispelling his past gloom and once again showing some of the majestic appearance of Founding Emperor Yan sweeping the world in the past.
Founding Emperor Yan, who had been confined in the royal palace as a divine needle of the royal family, no matter how high his martial arts skills were, was not seen as a rival by Martial Saint, but only as a humanoid big medicine.
Two hundred years flew by in the blink of an eye.
After studying hard, Qiao Mu finally understood the essence of sound wave martial arts.
Whether it was "Lion Roars" or "Po Yue Long Yin Gong" "Tian Ming Shen Gang" and other martial arts, he mastered them all one by one over the course of two hundred years…
However…
In the battlefield of dreams, no matter how hard Qiao Mu tried, he couldn’t kill the gigantic Blood Flesh Divine Being.
……………….
"Haha, it seems like there’s no way out, huh?"
At the end of his two hundred years in the Long Life Dream, Qiao Mu casually lay down on the grass in his dream, resting his head on his hands.
After the Long Life Lock broke four times, his dream time multiplier increased to one hundred times, and he spent a long 2500 years in the Long Life Dream.
Yet, even when time ran out, he still hadn’t found the perfect solution in his dream.
After waking up that time, Qiao Mu was so angry that he immediately killed the leader of Xuantian Sect, and then he destroyed Xuantian Sect…
He said he wanted to train and nurture young martial artists at the mountain villa, but shortly after, he hurried to the Western Province using the Heavenly Dragon Eight Steps…
"Hmm. Maybe this time will be the same as last time," Qiao Mu smirked:
"When I wake up, Martial Saint and the previous Xuantian Sect Taoist Lord manipulated the small world, had a sudden idea, and then, it vanished."
Lost in thought, his consciousness gradually became clear, as he was about to wake up from the Long Life Dream.
…………………………
Boom.
The earth shook, and the Blood Flesh Divine Being seemed unstoppable as it ran wildly on Kuafu Divine Mountain.
Every time he passed an Immortal City, numerous flesh buds gathered, making his figure taller.
The higher they climbed, the taller and bigger they became.
Among the Nine Immortal Cities, there were still some Blood Lotus Sect cultivators responsible for guarding the surviving areas.
However, they only took a distant glance and then lost the courage to confront it.
"If we allow this Human Demon to wreak havoc, the entire foundation of the Blood Lotus Immortal Kingdom will crumble! Without offerings, our cultivation will become unstable, and we may even regress in our abilities and cultivation level!" A cultivator passionately tried to inspire the others.
But soon, someone else coldly remarked:
"If you try to intervene, it won’t just be a matter of regression in cultivation level, you’ll meet a swift end."
"I watched as even the elders of the sect were devoured by that giant Human Demon. Do you have the courage to go?"
The Immortal Gate cultivators looked around and, in the end, unanimously decided to give up and only sent messages back to their sect using the Message Jade Talisman.
The Blood Lotus Sect cultivators stayed still.
But in the distance behind the Blood Flesh Divine Being, there were two figures using their light skills to chase after it with all their might.
The first one is Wu Qizheng, the second one is Wu Jing, they were like mirrored images, looking very similar.
