Chapter 226
?226 Enemies meet
At this moment, the sky was clear. The ocean of vital Qi that he had used to crack open the vital stones and vital crystals had long dissipated into the world.
Fortunately, this was the inside of the divine realm tablet. Even if it dissipated, it would still nourish the mountains and rivers of this world and eventually belong to him.
After reading one-third of the great realm divine technique, Yunxiao stepped out of the stele and appeared in Supreme Palace. He conjured a seal with one hand and immediately put the divine realm tablet into his glabella. Then, he sat down cross-legged and began to refine the divine realm tablet according to the Scriptures recorded in the divine technique.
To refine an ordinary profound level weapon, one only needed to use one’s soul power to sense the pulse of the profound level weapon and achieve unity of mind and spirit with it. However, this divine realm tablet required an entire divine technique to perceive the heaven and earth in the tablet, comprehend the nomological laws of the world, and then reach the state of mind and spirit as one, one with the object and one with himself.
While he was meditating, he felt that every time he performed a move of the great realm divine technique, he would have a better understanding of the divine realm tablet. Perhaps this great realm divine technique was a technique that existed solely for the divine realm tablet.
He had created such a profound divine technique for an artifact, which showed how heaven-defying the divine realm tablet was.
While Yunxiao was meditating, a slight tremor suddenly came from Supreme Palace, and a biting cold air rushed out.
“Extreme cold Qi?”
Yunxiao’s eyelids twitched. Suddenly, three figures appeared around him, and all of them had extremely unsightly expressions.
“Who is it? What happened to my Supreme Palace? There’s actually no one here?”
The leader of the three said slowly. He raised his eyes, and his eyes were as sharp as knives. Suddenly, his pupils constricted as he stared at Yunxiao and said angrily, ” “Brat, it’s you!”
His body trembled, and he rushed over with a loud roar. He was practically roaring, ” “Give me back my true Phoenix Flame!”
They were Qi Zhenzi, who had been healing in seclusion, and Yi Xiaoshan and Huyan Ming, the only surviving members of the six Supreme disciples. No one knew where they were, but they had managed to avoid Xingyang Huo’s killing, and even Yunxiao’s divine sense could not find them.
“Martial uncle, don’t kill him! Capture and refine the true flame alive!” Huyan Ming’s eyes also burst with light as he hurriedly shouted.
Hmph, kid, there’s a path to heaven, but you refuse to take it. Since you’ve delivered yourself to my door, then I won’t be polite with my subordinates!
Qi Zhenzi’s mind was occupied with the Phoenix true flame, and he only had Yunxiao in his eyes. He opened his palm, and streams of gray aura shot out from his five fingers. They came from several directions like vines, trying to tie Yunxiao up.
Yunxiao sighed softly. With a flash of red light in his hand, Tigerfang sword transformed into a fierce tiger and shot out. Tens of thousands of sword beams scattered and cut off the five gray streams, but the Tiger’s momentum did not slow down as it pounced on Qi Zhenzi.
“Bang!”
Qi Zhenzi’s pupils contracted. He slapped away the fierce Tiger’s sword energy and cried out in horror, ” “Martial Lord! You’ve been promoted from a nine-stars warrior to a two-stars martial Lord in just a month? How is this possible?”
Not only him, but Yi Xiaoshan and Huyan Ming were also dumbfounded, their brains short-circuited at the same time.
“True fire, it must be true fire!” “He must’ve absorbed the true fire,” Huyan Ming roared with heartache,”that’s why he has such a dream-like cultivation speed!” Give me back my true Phoenix Flame!”
Qi Zhenzi’s heart ached, and he was extremely vexed. He was so angry that his five fingers cracked. if you know what’s good for you, you’d better cooperate with us to take out the true fire. Junior nephew Huyan is a fourth-tier Alchemist, and I’ll definitely ask him to find a way to keep you alive.
Yunxiao stood with the sword in his hand and looked at him as if he was an idiot.
As if sensing the situation outside, a golden light flashed in the divine realm tablet, and Duan Yue stepped out and stood beside Yunxiao, his cold eyes sweeping over the three.
“Swish!”
Qi Zhenzi gasped. The aura emanating from Duan Yue’s body had actually suppressed him. The killing intent that was revealed from it sent a chill down his spine.
“This Lord, you are Yingluo?”
Duan Yue snorted coldly and glanced at him, as if he didn’t care to answer.
Qi Zhenzi’s heart was beating like a drum. He asked carefully, ” “Sir, may I know what is your relationship with this child?”
Huyan Ming, on the other hand, looked puzzled. He frowned and stared at the divine realm tablet behind him, as if he had sensed something extraordinary about it.
Duan Yue slightly raised his eyes and gave him a glance, then said lazily, ” “It’s whatever you think it is, it doesn’t matter.”
Qi Zhenzi felt suffocated and cupped his fists.”I have some grudges with this young man. I hope that this Lord will not interfere.”
don’t worry, ” Yunxiao said. he won’t do anything.
Duan Yue gave him a surprised look.’Does this kid want to fight a martial Grandmaster alone?’ Although Qi Zhenzi had not fully recovered from his injuries, he was still a one-star martial Grandmaster. As the saying went, one man could overcome ten men. The two of them were separated by two major realms, which was not a gap that could be closed by skill.
But, when Yunxiao said that, Qi Zhenzi was even more uncertain.
“My Lord, I’m Huyan Ming, a fourth-tier Alchemist,” Huyan Ming said with a bright voice. As long as my Lord doesn’t interfere in our private affairs, I, Huyan Ming, will owe you a big favor. I’ll definitely repay you in the future!”
“Tsk! Was Tier 4 that amazing? You’re nothing in my eyes!” Duan Yue said triumphantly. He was scolding Yunxiao, and he gave him a smug look. What he did not know was that Yunxiao was already a fifth-tier being.
But when Huyan Ming heard this, his expression changed drastically.
A favor from a fourth-tier Alchemist was something that many people would fight for, even among martial grandmasters. Even a Martial Emperor of the seven constellations realm would not want to offend a fourth-tier Alchemist at will. However, the disdainful and unconcerned expression on Duan Yue’s face was definitely not an act. That meant that he was really not interested!
Qi Zhenzi’s heart was beating like a drum, and he asked tentatively, ” “Milord, can I capture this thief and take him away?”
Duan Yue suddenly burst into laughter. you seem to think that you’ve got him in the bag, don’t you? ”
Qi Zhenzi seemed to understand. “Of course! Could it be that Daren thinks that there’s some suspense?”
Yunxiao chuckled noncommittally and said, ” “Qi Zhenzi, why don’t we make a bet?”
Qi Zhenzi crossed his arms and snorted. “What qualifications do you have to bet with me? But there’s no harm in telling.”
the man next to me will never make a move, ” Yunxiao said lightly. you can do whatever you want. If you can take me down, you can have the true Phoenix Flame. If you can’t, I want the three of you to submit to me. Is this a good bet?”
“What? You want to fight me one-on-one?” Qi Zhenzi’s eyes widened as if he had seen the most unbelievable thing in the world.
“Pledge allegiance to you? What qualifications do you have to think of subduing me?” huyan ming’s face was full of mockery and disdain.
Yi Xiaoshan remained silent from beginning to end, only frowning slightly. he was an eight-stars martial king, so he had no say in this place.
“Haha, you don’t even dare to bet on this?” Yunxiao sneered without hiding it and said coldly, ” “If that’s the case, then get lost. What’s the use of taking in such a cowardly waste?”
“Big words! You’re so arrogant!” “I’ll defeat you even in martial arts, let alone martial uncle Qi!” Huyan Ming shouted angrily.
As a fourth-tier Alchemist, he was also a martial Lord. He had always had high standards, and even those big sects and aristocratic families didn’t dare to say that they wanted to recruit him.
Qi Zhenzi’s face turned serious. “Sir, will you intervene in this bet?” What he was most worried about was Duan Yue. If it were not for this martial Grandmaster, who he could not see through, he would have killed Yunxiao with one palm long ago, and he would not have wasted so much time.
Duan Yue was a little worried. Looking at Yunxiao’s indifferent look, he said slowly, ” “Since both sides have agreed, I will naturally not interfere. Then I’ll be the witness. If someone reneges, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
He deliberately stared at Huyan Ming, his gaze piercing like a steel knife. Huyan Ming was so shocked that his entire body turned cold. He said in a serious voice,”Since there’s a Lord as a witness, we naturally won’t break our promise.”
Yi Xiaoshan also nodded his head slightly in agreement.
Qi Zhenzi looked at Yunxiao indifferently. He could not figure out why this one-star martial Lord dared to challenge him. “Make your move, or don’t blame me for not giving you the chance to make your move if you lose,” he said leisurely.
since Lord Qi has the demeanor of a Lord, ” Yunxiao said with a smile, ” I won’t be polite.
He raised the Tigerfang sword and blew on it lightly. The roar of a Tiger resounded. The seal on the sword was instantly removed, and shadows of blood-red Tigers roared out of the sword. It was as if they were in a primitive forest, and demonic Qi filled the sky.
Qi Zhenzi’s expression changed slightly. The power of this sword was so strong that it was far beyond the power of an ordinary martial Lord.
It must be the effect of the true Phoenix Fire!
Qi Zhenzi attributed all of this to the true Phoenix Fire, and the thought of it made his heart ache. His gaze became even more fanatical. As long as Duan Yue did not interfere and he captured the young man, all the benefits would be his.
“Even the light of a grain of rice glows.”
Qi Zhenzi sneered and struck with his palm. The wind from his palm broke through the air and suppressed all the demonic Qi. Under the might of this palm, the numerous Tiger phantoms immediately dissipated, and everything became clear.
“Brat, strength can overcome ten techniques. No matter how powerful you are, you can’t escape from my palm! Just take this as a lesson and surrender. For the sake of this Lord, I’ll try my best to spare your life!”
He continued to persuade, but his hands did not stop at all. In an instant, dozens of fist shadows were blasted out, condensed in the air and not scattered, whistling down. Moreover, the fist shadow exuded a bone-chilling aura that almost froze the entire area.
Duan Yue’s pupils constricted as well, as he could see the power of the energy. He couldn’t help but feel nervous. If they were at the same level, even he might not have the confidence to deal with this kind of cold Qi.
Yunxiao’s eyes narrowed slightly as he bent his body and kicked his legs hard. His body shot out, and even though he had performed the footwork of shifting shadows under the fist shadows that filled the sky, he did not manage to hit the target. Ice pits were formed on the ground, and they all turned into light blue crystals.
Qi Zhenzi cast a spell with one hand and shouted, ” “Your movement technique is not bad, but it’s useless! Extreme cold true Qi, condense!”
Creak creak creak!
The icy air that was spreading all over the ground suddenly condensed under his spell. The air was constantly frozen in a color visible to the naked eye, and the entire ground was covered in a layer of frost.
