However, after only a slight daze, the astonishment in the eyes of the avatar was replaced by killing intent.
Without any hesitation, after the dharma form swapped positions with the flying sword, it punched heavily towards Xu Taiping below.
At the moment of punching, an extremely strong soul energy fluctuation spread out with the fist of the dharma form as the center.
Among the onlookers present, any cultivator who had comprehended or come into contact with the power of true intent immediately noticed that within the fist of Jia Sheng’s dharma form, there was an additional true intent full of the meaning of gold.
From this, it can be seen that although I don’t know exactly what this true intent is, it must be related to the power to break through armor.
Also because of the appearance of this true intent, many onlookers on the field did not notice the change in the fluctuation of Xu Taiping’s expression and breath at this moment.
”Bang！”
The next moment, Accompanied by a deafening collision sound, Xu Taiping’s body was hit by this punch.
But unlike before, Xu Taiping’s body was not blasted away by the force of this fist, but still remained in place.
Seeing this scene, Du Gu Qingxiao on the stands immediately exclaimed：
”Not good, we were all deceived by that Jia Sheng. The true intent in his fist is not the true intent to break through armor at all, but the true intent of immobilizing and trapping the enemy.”
And just as Du Gu Qingxiao was speaking, amidst a huge “boom” sound, it was seen that the force on Jia Sheng’s fist all poured onto Xu Taiping’s body.
And because Xu Taiping’s body couldn’t move, that huge force finally turned into that gust of astral wind, which “boomed” and poured downward through Xu Taiping’s body.
The scene in front of him made Du Gu Qingxiao’s heart sink.
Just when he was about to take action to stop this sword question, a figure exactly the same as Xu Taiping separated from Xu Taiping’s fixed body.
“Zheng！ ……”
The next moment, in a sudden knife chirping sound, a snow-white knife light covered with a layer of “golden flame” “swished” past the arm of Jia Sheng’s dharma form.
“Boom！”
Almost at the same time, Xu Taiping’s fixed body and the golden light protecting Jia Sheng’s arm shattered together.
Immediately afterwards, in the stunned eyes of the onlookers from Western Zhou, Jia Sheng’s dharma form’s arm broke off at the shoulder.
Then, that huge arm, with a “bang”, landed heavily on the sword flat.
The entire sword platform trembled.
However, at this moment, the attention of everyone including Du Gu Qingxiao was not on the arm that fell to the ground, but on Xu Taiping’s figure holding the knife.
“Just now, Xu Taiping saw through Jia Sheng’s true intention, so he separated a mysterious yuan clone in advance to block the immobilizing true intention in Jia Sheng’s fist for himself？”
“This speed is too fast.”
In the viewing box of Guangling Pavilion, Mu Yuchen stared at the sword flat below without blinking, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Zhang Moyan, who was sitting on the other side, shook his head and said：
“It’s not just that.”
Seeing that everyone in the box cast confused glances one after another, Zhang Moyan immediately explained：
“It’s not difficult to see through Jia Sheng’s true intention, and even refining a clone is not too difficult.”
“The really difficult thing is the knife he used to cut off Jia Sheng’s Dharma image’s arm after using the clone to block this punch.”
Mu Yuchen asked in confusion：
“What is the mystery of this knife？”
Although she could see that Xu Taiping’s knife was very strong, she couldn’t figure out where the specific strength of this knife was.
Zhang Moyan said with a serious face：
“The strength lies in the golden flame on the knife body.”
When he said this, he paused for a moment, and then continued in a very solemn tone：
If I’m not wrong, the golden flame covers Taiping’s knife body should be one of the homologous true fires the golden flame that combines the power of geng gold and the power of true fire.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the box changed their colors in unison.
Fusing the Return to Origin True Fire is already an extremely difficult and dangerous matter. Moreover, it took only an instant for Xu Taiping to draw his knife and strike. It is very hard for them to imagine that someone can quickly summon the Golden Flame of the Return to Origin True Fire and integrate it into the saber momentum within such a short time.
It’s normal that they can’t imagine it.
Because of this Return to Origin True Fire technique, plus the several decades in the Mysterious Wilderness Pagoda, Xu Taiping has practiced for hundreds of years before and after, and only then can he be as proficient in controlling it as he is today.
“Boom！”
Before everyone could figure out how Xu Taiping could so quickly summon the Golden Flame and integrate it into the saber momentum, Xiao Sheng’s Dharma form with one broken arm once again swapped positions with the flying sword.
This time, that bronze ring-headed flying sword was no longer Jia Sheng’s false move, but a real move that integrated the sword momentum, sword intent, and sword energy.
“Zheng！ ……”
Amid the sound of the sword piercing through the air, after the flying sword was integrated with the sword momentum, sword intent, and sword energy, it then turned into a sword shadow over a hundred zhang long, carrying a huge sword momentum that integrated the power of the mountain soul, and shot towards Xu Taiping with one strike.
“Boom！ ……”
Amid the deafening sound of breaking through the air, that sword shadow almost appeared in front of Xu Taiping in an instant.
But the next scene once again caused an uproar in the entire field.
Just as the sword shadow flew towards Xu Taiping, the fluctuation of Xu Taiping’s aura around his body suddenly and without warning surged violently.
This time, after feeling the fluctuation of the aura spreading from Xu Taiping at this moment, even Du Gu Qingxiao’s complexion changed drastically.
Because the aura spreading from Xu Taiping at this time had almost approached that of an ordinary cultivator at the small success stage of the Looking-up-to-the-Sky Realm.
The sect leader Zhao Qian beside him even frowned and whispered：
Could it be that Taiping has broken through to the Transforming Realm？
But immediately he shook his head vigorously and said：
Impossible, the Bone-Crushing Curse has no solution.
Du Gu Qingxiao then took over the conversation and said：
It is also possible that after so many years of tempering, Taiping has greatly improved the purity and profoundness of his true essence.
Zhao Qian nodded and said：
That should be the case.
Cultivators in the Divine Refinement Realm, as the power of their divine souls continues to increase, it is indeed possible to enhance the purity and profoundness of their true essence to the small success stage of the Looking-up-to-the-Sky Realm.
Zhao Qian immediately added another sentence and said：
However, from the examples throughout history, even if a cultivator in the Divine Refinement Realm enhances the power of their divine soul to the thirteenth level the profoundness of their true essence can at most reach the level of the small success stage of the Looking-up-to-the-Sky Realm.
The implication was that if the aura on Xu Taiping could still increase, then he was very likely to have indeed broken through the Looking-up-to-the-Sky Realm.
Du Gu Qingxiao nodded silently.
And just as the two were talking like this, suddenly, Xu Taiping’s figure once again split into two in the air.
The figure on the left side first took on the stance of the Great Saint Fist, and then with a move of ‘Ba Xia’, he smashed towards the overlapping sword shadows.
“Bang！ ……”
With another loud noise, the cultivators in the stands looked on in Stunned surprise and found that the sword shadow was actually shattered by Xu Taiping’s fist.
Even the flying sword wrapped in the sword shadow was shaken by the force of the thousand-fold strength in this fist, making a ‘click’ sound.
Even the blade of the flying sword showed a small crack.
