Chapter 134: Chapter 129: Battle with Lu Yi (Parts Combined, 4000-Word Chapter)_2

Lu Yi had already cast aside the black bow, now useless to him, and was holding a short sword that radiated an icy gleam, coldly watching Qing Yu, the murderer who had killed his two junior martial brothers.

"I will make you pay with your life for my two junior brothers..." Lu Yi’s sword finger pointed at Qing Yu, his True Qi burst forth, putting immense pressure on Qing Yu, displaying the might of the Dragon and Phoenix List’s eighth-ranked youth unmistakably.

’After using "Knowledge Gained Through Experience" for so long, is there not even a bit of wear and tear?’ Qing Yu felt the vigorous True Qi emanating from his opponent and muttered to himself.

’No, there is some wear after all...’ His superior eyesight accurately caught Lu Yi’s eyelids twitching a bit too frequently. Although Lu Yi’s movements were very careful, they couldn’t escape Qing Yu’s gaze.

’No wonder, despite having the upper hand in strength, he doesn’t launch an aggressive attack; it turns out he is adjusting to the fatigue in his eyes...’

While his opponent was down, Qing Yu brought his Dual Swords together, his movement as one with the blades, the swords seemingly flying together through the air like the Outer Heaven Jade Dragon, aiming at Lu Yi who was struggling with the soreness in his eyes.

"One Origin Rebirth Void."

For the first time in this world, the "Taiyi Splitting Light Sword," known as the "cage of Martial Arts across the world" within the Kunlun World, showed its edge.

The two swords in his hands appeared to merge into one, each stroke carrying the power of Dual Swords, yet they could also split apart, aiming at two different spots on Lu Yi’s body.

Due to issues with his eyesight, Lu Yi’s response under these exquisite sword moves was a bit frantic.

However, relying on his Power that far surpassed Qing Yu’s, Lu Yi was not affected by the melded force of the Dual Swords. Instead, with each clash, his robust True Qi deflected Qing Yu’s sword edge, disrupting his Sword Way.

Even the most intricate sword form requires an extraordinary Inner Power Cultivation to truly unleash its power. Dugu Nine Swords are said to "Break All Martial Arts," but without sufficient Inner Power Cultivation, not even breaking the three-foot Qi wall of the Sweeping Monk with hands behind his back is possible.

Anyway, Qing Yu did not believe the sophistication of swordsmanship could disregard the vast gap in Power. Even Dugu Qiubai, if he lost his Inner Strength, couldn’t claim "Grass and Wood as Swords" just to show off.

Therefore, the extremely intricate "Taiyi Splitting Light Sword" had no chance under the huge gap of True Qi.

But Qing Yu was not the least bit intimidated by the opponent’s extraordinary True Qi because he dared to face such a disadvantage undoubtedly with preparation.

The "Taiyi Splitting Light Sword" didn’t only have the exquisite Sword Union but also an unmatched Qi Union.

With his Visible and Invisible meridian sets, Qing Yu could surpass the limitation that the "Taiyi Splitting Light Sword" had to be executed jointly by a man and a woman; he alone could use this astounding sword technique.

Inside his body, the Yin Yang Qi circulated and transformed, Taiji Births two forms. Once the Qi circulated back, two forms Birth Four Symbols, endowing him with the Power of four people.

The increase in True Qi meant the impact on Qing Yu’s sword became less and less. Gradually, even Lu Yi, whose eyes were slowly adjusting to the soreness, could no longer parry Qing Yu’s swordsmanship as easily as before.

"Breaking Chaos and Dividing Yin and Yang."

He continued with the Sword Way, his hands wielding the Dual Swords, opening and closing like two flood dragons, sometimes dancing wildly across the sky with countless sword shadows, and sometimes like the legendary Golden Crocodile Shears, merging into one sword with unmatched power.

Lu Yi’s defense became increasingly desperate. With no advantage in Power and having lost even the last bit of superiority, compounded by the substantial Mental Power drain from the frequent use of "Knowledge Gained Through Experience," even attempting to use it to find flaws in Qing Yu’s Sword Way was beyond him, too exhausted to execute.

Moreover, the true intricacies of "Taiyi Splitting Light Sword" were far from being fully displayed. Qing Yu, who alone personified the combination of Yin-Yang Dual Qi, was flawless, even more closely united than two people with a heart-to-heart connection because there was only him.

Lu Yi, if he tried to analyze Qing Yu’s weakness with "Knowledge Gained Through Experience," time was not a luxury he could afford. That’s because Qing Yu’s Power became increasingly overbearing, as Four Symbols Produce Eight Diagrams.

However... the drawback of one person using the power of two emerged. The surging True Qi within Qing Yu’s body rushed like flood waters breaking through a dam. His meridians, strengthened and expanded several times, could support the strain, after all, using the "Taiyi Splitting Light Sword" also involved sustaining four times the power within one set of meridians, and Qing Yu’s two sets perfectly distributed it, each holding four times the power.

But the pressure of eight times the power on the other parts of the body could not be shared with a second body. This was where Qing Yu currently found himself in an awkward position, with powerful Qi but a weak body. Ultimately, it came down to insufficient body strength—not durable enough to withstand the strain.

"After this is over, I’m definitely going to get myself some Body Refining Techniques..." Qing Yu roared dejectedly in his mind.

Knowing that time was limited, Qing Yu became even more intense in his sword moves, "Wanxiang Hunyuan is Taizhen."

Wielding the dual swords, he traced a circle, within which vague shapes of Yin fish and Yang fish joined tails and merged, creating an endless cycle—the Tai Chi Diagram.

Lu Yi only felt as if he were being tossed about in a churning sea of darkness, his body no longer under his control, simply drifting along with Qing Yu’s overwhelmingly powerful True Qi without any power to resist.

The gap in power had been completely reversed. Now, the one at a disadvantage wasn’t Qing Yu, but Lu Yi. Moreover, unlike before, Lu Yi had no advantage in terms of moves.

Within several strikes, Lu Yi’s short sword was suddenly disarmed by the entwining dual swords.

With a flash of sword light, Qing Yu effortlessly severed the tendons in Lu Yi’s hands and feet with the decisive advantage he held, then thrust the dual swords into his scapulae, pinning him to a nearby tree.

After that, Qing Yu struck Lu Yi’s forehead with a palm, leaving him dazed and light-headed. He followed with another palm strike to the Dantian, destroying his martial arts. Then, taking several silver needles, he pierced various vital points on Lu Yi’s head.

Qing Yu quietly waited in front of Lu Yi, watching as fresh blood flowed from his various wounds. By the time Lu Yi slowly started to regain his senses from his dizziness, he was already extremely weak, his consciousness blurred as if on the brink of death.

Struggling to open his eyes, he saw a pair of eyes as deep as the Abyss, and he couldn’t help but feel as if his soul had left his body and was being drawn into those bottomless black holes.

"I’ve succeeded..." Qing Yu thought to himself as he looked into Lu Yi’s lifeless eyes.

Known as "Refining God Shortcuts," the "Black Heaven Book" had enabled Qing Yu to embark on the path of Spiritual manipulation when he was in the Innate Realm. Thus, he was able to use the "Mind Control Spell" from the Yin Yang Technique. By various methods, Qing Yu had left Lu Yi’s mind blurred and defenseless. He had to use his own eyes, which held a mysterious power, to ensure a foolproof mind invasion, breaking through into Lu Yi’s mind to uncover his secrets.

Time was short, and it was uncertain when Lu Yi might give up the ghost. Qing Yu immediately used the "Ten Thousand Leaves Flying Flower Flow" to stir the surrounding branches and leaves to mask the sound of the upcoming interrogation, preventing Luo Yan from eavesdropping.

"Tell me the mental method of ’Knowledge Gained Through Experience’..." Qing Yu said softly, staring into Lu Yi’s vacant eyes.

Lu Yi was incredibly weak, his voice barely audible, and Qing Yu had to listen very carefully to hear him.

However, after some struggles, Qing Yu finally obtained what he wanted—the secret technique of Philosophy, "Knowledge Gained Through Experience".

As for the rest, Qing Yu wasn’t particularly interested, and Lu Yi was too weak to speak further. So Qing Yu mercifully ended his life.

Next would have been the familiar task of destroying the body to leave no trace, but people from Daqian below had already noticed the disturbance on the hillside, and some were coming up to investigate. Presumably, the several unhidden bodies that Qing Yu had assassinated earlier had also been discovered, and the approaching group was not small.

A complete obliteration of the body was now impossible, but the signs on Lu Yi’s body still had to be erased. The current situation clearly indicated that someone had obtained useful information from Lu Yi.

With energy in his palm, a spark of fire appeared in his hand, and soon Lu Yi’s body was engulfed in roaring flames. Yin Yang Technique could do things ordinary Martial Arts couldn’t, such as this fire-starting. Relying solely on True Qi to force it would have been incredibly draining.

With everything that needed doing done, it was time to retreat. Qing Yu’s body had been seriously wounded by the earlier surge of power, and he was still oozing blood from several places. He needed to find somewhere to recuperate and immediately disappeared from the scene.

"I definitely need to find some top-grade Body Refining Techniques..." Qing Yu made the promise to himself again as he hurried along, his body aching.
