Chapter 321: Chapter 149: Jiangning Xu Qing is Here (Update for Lord Nuan Yang’s Silver League)

King Lin had prepared a residence specifically for Mr. and Mrs. Xu Qing, which allowed them to view the sea and observe the tides.

In the early morning, thick fog enveloped everything.

As Xu Qing stepped out of his room, he took a deep breath and sucked in the massive fog before him as if conjuring thunder. This was the Breathing Skill combined with the Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound from the Golden Light Spell.

He manipulated his breath, expelling a turbid breath mingled with the fog he had taken into his belly.

By the time the fog was inside his body, it had already been enveloped and condensed by the turbid qi.

All one could see was Xu Qing opening his mouth and expelling a long, grey-white sword-shaped mist, temporarily cleaving the thick fog apart.

This was actually similar to scenes in novels where Sword Immortals exhaled Sword Pills and emitted sword lights.

In the current Martial Arts world, it even had a specific name—"Breathing Sword."

Although Xu Qing could not yet be considered proficient, if a true Martial Arts Grandmaster of formidable strength were to perform the Breathing Sword, legend has it that they could even pierce through metal sheets, creating a hole in a person upon contact.

Of course, this was often more for show.

In actual combat, there’s hardly an opportunity for one to evenly adjust their breath to perform the Breathing Sword.

Unless one dual cultivates Magic and Martial, gathers Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha, and refines a mass of Gang Sha, using it on a Magic Artifact or directly performing the Breathing Sword would be extremely swift and practically highly effective.

Chang Shengzi, one of the seven disciples of the former Quanzhen Dao, was a master of this technique.

"Brother Gongming, shall we practice a bit?" dressed in a Black Fox Robe, Feng Wu came out and, looking at her husband with a smile, suggested warmly.

The two hadn’t yet engaged in true spiritual intercourse, but merely exchanged vital energy and spirits, with Feng Wu refining essence into Qi and Xu Qing taking this opportunity to balance Yin and Yang.

Both gained from it.

However, the true spiritual intercourse required both parties to be physically and mentally prepared, and after obtaining a Dual Cultivation Secret Technique from the Xuantian Treasure Vault, then performing the first spiritual intercourse would yield the best results.

Especially when used for the Divine Soul or breaking through in Martial Arts, the effects were comparable to consuming spiritual pills and elixirs.

Such opportunities, naturally, should not be wasted.

In Feng Wu’s hands were two treasures; one was a pair of silk gloves, and the other was a Cloud Weaving Silk.

Both items were made from extremely special materials.

The silk gloves were not only light and thin but could even catch blades barehanded when worn.

The Cloud Weaving Silk, on the other hand, was a Magic Artifact used for Exorcism, possessing strong resistance against disturbances to Martial Arts Qi-Blood and capable of versatile transformations under the guidance of the Divine Soul.

However, its power was not comparable to a Peach Wood Sword.

Especially against entities like the sinister Yan Kong, wielding it would be akin to delivering oneself to the enemy, but it was indeed powerful against ordinary soldiers.

Of course, spousal practice wouldn’t involve real combat; its real purpose was to help Feng Wu find her weaknesses and shortcomings.

Xu Qing could also use it to warm up.

In the vast fog, Bai Ling fluttered up and down.

Xu Qing didn’t deliberately mobilize his Qi-Blood, nor did he use the Feather Robe Blade or Peach Wood Sword, relying solely on his hands to fend off the fluttering Bai Ling while engaging in close combat with Feng Wu’s Heavenly Net Hand.

The Heavenly Net Hand combined with the movement technique of the Eight Diagram Palm was most powerful in its move called the Heavenly Net Cone.

Combined with the silk gloves, its effectiveness was similar to techniques like the Emei Piercing.

Before long, Feng Wu was already panting heavily.

Xu Qing still looked relaxed and composed.

As the sun pierced through the morning fog, Xu Qing stood in the brilliance, appearing almost divine.

Feng Wu hopped aside, "I won’t fight anymore."

Xu Qing smiled, "Your Heavenly Net Hand and your movement technique are not in sync, of course, since you’re a woman practicing Martial Arts. Even if you’re a Refining Internal Master, physical strength is still a shortcoming."

He was simply stating the facts.

Feng Wu responded, "It’s indeed so with Martial Arts, but Divine Soul Dao Skill doesn’t depend on physical strength."

Xu Qing nodded. However, among men of the same level, physical Qi-Blood is often stronger, and Qi-Blood nourishing the Divine Soul still holds an advantage.

"Old Master, Madam, Lord Lin invites you over."

The person entering to inform them was Su Lianqing disguised as an old helmsman.

This woman somewhat did it on purpose.

Taking advantage of the Divine Soul Disguise Technique, she wore an ancient face and occasionally hovered around Xu Qing and Feng Wu.

After all, as someone from the Luo Sect known as the Thousand-Faced Bodhisattva, her professionalism in this area was unquestionable.

Feng Wu didn’t notice anything amiss.

Moreover, the Divine Soul Disguise Technique’s flaw lies in the eyes. After Xu Qing’s reminder, Su Lianqing had conducted specialized research and improvement in this aspect.

If she had possessed this level of skill initially, Xu Qing wouldn’t have recognized her identity back then.

Of course, if Xu Qing were to enhance his training in this aspect, he could achieve a calm state similar to Su Lianqing’s disguise.

But imitating a person’s body posture, footsteps, and tone of voice to perfectly match an identity is an entirely different professional discipline.

Although Xu Qing had a strong learning ability, he wouldn’t devote too much effort in this regard.

Like Gao Gongyuan’s sea affair capabilities, beyond that knowledge, it also needs a kind of intuition amassed through experience. Even with great talent, extensive practice is required to acquire it.

Thus, Xu Qing’s versatility was more about understanding, making it difficult for professionals to deceive him.

For a leader, this was already an exceptionally efficient capability.

...

...

Mr. and Mrs. Xu Qing went to meet King Lin.

"Gongming, I have a bold plan. I wonder if you would be willing to give it a try," King Lin stated earnestly.

Xu Qing replied, "I would like to hear the details."

King Lin elaborated on his plan.

It turned out that the Giant Whale Gang had a Giant Whale Island about tens of miles away, which stored vast resources and served as the largest supply point for the Giant Whale Gang’s ships in nearby waters.

If they could take down Giant Whale Island, seize or destroy the enemy’s resources, they would gain the upper hand in the conflict.

Otherwise, a prolonged war would gradually shrink the operational space of the East Island’s sea forces.

As for Xu Qing and his companions’ ship being able to enter East Island smoothly, it was likely the enemy’s intentional doing, thinking that going out again would not be so easy.

King Lin had worked with Gao Gongyuan to predict that the next evening would bring a favorable wind and current leading directly to Giant Whale Island. By then, choosing the right ship, seizing the gap in the Giant Whale Gang’s defenses, they could stealthily land on Giant Whale Island and gain the upper hand.
