Despite the fierce onslaught of the Golden Flood Dragon, Xu Sheng remained unperturbed, his arms wide open, a surging battle intent erupting from within him.
As the sword moved with his heart, his Sea of Consciousness churning once more, he formed three kinds of Sword Qi: lightning, flame, and dark moon, all swirling around him.
With eyes bursting with radiant light, he used a secret technique from the supreme heavenly Sword Tome: the Cascade of Swords.
Three strands of sword qi – violet, crimson, and white, under Xu Sheng’s control, meshed into one. The radiance of the sword drastically increased, and a white giant sword, flowing with the force of lightning fire, appeared suddenly before him.
Xu Sheng made a lotus imprint with his left hand and held the Phantom Sword with his right, controlling the lightning-fire Dark Moon Sword, and savagely chopping down on the head of the oncoming Golden Flood Dragon.
The collision between the white giant sword and the red-gold dragon, at the initial touch of heavenly thunder and earth’s fire, exploded the entire sky into golden-red.
The Golden Flood Dragon was beheaded, and the emanating golden fierce flame melted a gap in the white giant sword. The clash of two powerful techniques, at the first contact, disrupted their energy-forming states, turning into a clash of spiritual power attributes.
The violet lightning and the red fierce flame refused to give in to each other; amidst the fierce roar, two martial arts techniques, surpassing the force of the Mortal Realm, once again set off astonishing spiritual power fluctuations.
The Golden Flood Dragon burst open, and the giant sword shattered. The martial arts techniques that had caused such alarm scattered into nothingness, leaving only intense ripples to testify to the intensity of the collision that just occurred.
Tang Luo widened his eyes, thinking he had seen a ghost!
Xu Sheng was undoubtedly a transcendent from the Mortal Realm, as the numerical figure above his head could not be falsified. But the martial technique he had just used was not as simple as a Mortal Realm killing technique.
Although he didn’t know what sword technique Xu Sheng was using, he was quite familiar with the “Fierce Python Transforms into a Dragon.” The most striking feature of this combined attack technique was its tremendous power, capable of damaging warriors from the Fierce Realm.
To decapitate the Golden Flood Dragon, it would generally require a combination of at least ten Mortal Realm killing techniques. But Xu Sheng achieved it with one attack.
And looking at his composed demeanor, it was clearly not a result of expending his full strength.
Considering himself well-informed about martial arts, Tang Luo was left dumbfounded by the technique Xu Sheng had just demonstrated. It was the single-person combined technique, a challenge he had yet to conquer.
But this didn’t discourage him; instead, it aroused his competitive spirit. Because the martial technique Xu Sheng displayed simply confirmed the correctness of his research direction.
The collision between the Golden Flood Dragon and the giant sword was so mighty that Xu Sheng couldn’t muster a second attack through the center of the spiritual power explosion. He retreated several steps, returning to his original position, and distanced himself from Feng Dede.
In front of the Fox Immortal Temple, out of the original dozen or so martial artists who had achieved transcendence, more than half had been killed or injured in Xu Sheng’s initial attack. The only one unscathed was the peak Mortal Realm martial artist standing next to Feng Dede.
Stepping out from the temple were five more martial artists, a group of three who had just performed a combined attack technique, and then Gong Zheng and Qiu Jinglong.
Once again, both sides returned to a standoff, but this time, deep hatred lingered between them.
“Be careful, the three in the front row have reached the peak of the Mortal Realm.” Tang Luo gently reminded Xu Sheng, who turned back and looked at him in surprise.
Frightened by the incident, Feng Dede stumbled to the back of the group and didn’t dare to breathe, his legs trembling uncontrollably as he surveyed the bodies scattered on the ground.
No matter the outcome today, he believed his days as a shopkeeper were numbered. Among the casualties of Xu Sheng’s first Crimson Sword Qi attack had been a martial artist from the Feng family, who had been teaming up with two others to perform a combined attack technique.
Such teams of Mortal Realm martial artists were precious assets in any clan, but one had been killed just because of him. Feng Dede dared not imagine what punishment awaited him upon his return to the clan.
Gong Zheng took a step forward; he had been a few steps late in appearing, and the situation had already escalated dramatically.
For this trip to the Fox Immortal Temple, he had brought all of the remaining Seven Heavenly Kings, hoping for them to witness him avenging Wen Wei; he also brought along two deputy gang leaders: Qiu Jinglong and Huai Chenghua.
In Xu Sheng’s initial assault, all the Seven Heavenly Kings had been killed, even Huai Chenghua’s throat had been slit.
The Righteous Gang’s high-end martial power was incredibly, almost entirely wiped out in this confrontation. Gong Zheng was so furious that he almost crushed his back teeth, looking at Xu Sheng with eyes filled with loathing.
All his hard work over the past two years had been ruined in an instant; how would he explain this to his superiors!?!
Both parties once again returned to a standoff, but this time, the young swordsman seemed to have the upper hand.
“Which of you is the head of the Righteous Gang?” Old Master Xu asked first.
Facing a martial artist whom even their combined attack technique couldn’t defeat, the Feng family’s warriors couldn’t pretend they weren’t afraid. But watching their comrades die in front of them, their hatred made them ignore the disparity in strength. They were just waiting to regain their energy to launch another combined attack.
The other party only had one person. Could he possibly perform secret techniques of that level multiple times?
In response to Old Master Xu’s query, the warriors from the Feng family remained silent, their eyes filled with anger, fixed on the young swordsman. Gong Zheng, overcome with anger, stepped forward and said, “I am the one!” Before his words were fully spoken, a red light appeared out of thin air, flying straight towards Gong Zheng’s forehead.
The Crimson Sword Qi emerged again. Old Master Xu didn’t want to waste time chit-chatting and so he attacked directly.
Gong Zheng, the apex figure among those who had shed their mortal constraints, responded to the fast-approaching Crimson Sword Qi, which was a truly remarkable feat.
Channeling his spiritual power to his chest, he opened his mouth wide and a white cloud energy roared out, colliding with the Crimson Sword Qi.
Cloud Roar! This is one of Gong Zheng’s unique abilities, unbeatable when used for surprise attacks. Who could foresee an opponent spewing cloud-like spiritual energy from their mouth in a face-to-face confrontation?
The white cloud energy collided with the reddish force and disappeared in front of him.
After their first clash, it appeared to be a stalemate.
“You possess extraordinary skills, yet you lead a gang of thugs. It seems your martial arts skills are wasted on you!” Old Master Xu said, observing Gong Zheng’s adroit handling of his attack.
To effortlessly fend off the Crimson Sword Qi demonstrates that his skills are truly remarkable. But for such a martial artist to prey on the weak, it was truly disgusting!
Gong Zheng’s eyes darkened, he replied coldly: “My Righteous Gang leads with righteous children. When the city runs out of food in winter, we open porridge shops to help the poor. Everyone praises our gang for its unparalleled righteousness. What would an outsider like you know?”
“Do you know that this scholar is Feng’s shopkeeper’s employee? He committed a grave crime by running away, and even kidnapped a child. Who knows what unspeakable secrets he carries? I dispatched people to bring them back, but you slaughtered my men with reckless abandon. Who is the real villain here!?” In Xiling, reputation is extremely important. After the Righteous Gang made substantial profits, Gong Zheng did many good deeds to launder his gang’s image. Many of the young people in West City took pride in joining the Righteous Gang.
Feng Dezheng, who had previously hidden behind the group of warriors, saw that Gong Zheng’s first confrontation with Old Master Xu resulted in a stalemate, and with his words, the latter was left speechless. Plucking up courage, he stepped forward and said: “Mi Bai is my employee. What’s wrong with capturing him when he runs away! You, as a stranger with strong cultivation, murder innocent citizens, we will not tolerate you.”
The two echoed each other in a reciprocal manner, placing the hat of a oppressor upon Old Master Xu’s head.
These accusations left Old Master Xu at a loss, he knew it was not the truth, but he didn’t know how to counter them!
Whereas the warriors of the Feng family, previously filled with fighting spirit out of hatred, were now even more resolved. With justice on their side, they feared not Old Master Xu’s superior cultivation.
Both transcendental cultivators watched Old Master Xu’s every move like hawks.
In just a few words, the situation was reversed. This was a typical clan tactic.
Tang Luo stepped forward, shaking his head, expressing clear disdain: “You claim to have opened porridge shops to help the poor in winter, but don’t you dare tell them how many of your beggars didn’t survive the winter.”
“You claim to be unparalleled in righteousness, but don’t you dare tell them how many gambling houses you opened in West City, selling off the women of indebted gambler and forcing the virtuous into prostitution.”
“You claim everyone praises you, but don’t you dare tell them how many missing children and orphans were forced by you to beg with broken limbs, or were turned into thieves.”
“You do the most vile deeds, yet pretend to be righteous. You shameless person, you really make me sick!”
Each statement Tang Luo uttered, added to Old Master Xu’s determination, while the Feng family’s warriors’ fighting spirit waned.
Upon the utterance of the last sentence, Old Master Xu, covered in overwhelming sword aura, lunged at Gong Zheng!
