Chapter 202: Chapter 14 The Outcome is Decided

"Boom—"

Bright yellow fireworks blossomed in the night sky a short distance away.

’An enemy from the Divine Origin Realm, reinforcements?’

Qing Yu, interpreting the information from those fireworks, thought to himself.

’It’s time to end this.’

Qing Yu pushed his True Qi to the extreme. The "Innate Gang Qi" expanded violently, and like a tightly drawn bow, he suddenly shot forward. This was the "Waning Moon Transformation" within the Dragon Escape Nine Transformations, usually utilizing one’s body as the bow to launch hidden weapons like arrows.

Now, Qing Yu applied the "Waning Moon Transformation" to himself, erupting forward and instantly propelling himself to a spot three feet in front of Qingxu.

Afterward, his palm force congregated, bringing an overwhelming power that directly aimed for the top of Qingxu’s skull.

Qingxu’s body was surrounded by swirls of four-colored lights. Using both hands and feet, and starting with "Azure Dragon Star Coiling," he swiftly transitioned to "Xuanwu Sea Control," shifting the invisible force field weakly to deviate Qing Yu’s overbearing palm force.

Despite his attack being blocked, Qing Yu was not discouraged. His palms thundered like roaring thunder. Each move carried endless force, both hard and soft, seemingly wanting to break through Qingxu’s "Four Symbols Cycle" with overwhelming strength.

Yet, even faced with such an onslaught, the Four Symbols Cycle remained unbroken. Qingxu used absolute skills with his hands and feet. Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu continuously rotated in his sword, palm, and legs, making it impossible for Qing Yu, despite his immense power, to breach this impregnable defense.

"I told you, I have already placed myself in an invincible position; you have no chance of winning."

Being purely defensive was not in Qingxu’s nature. After holding off Qing Yu’s relentless and fierce attacks, Qingxu began to switch from defense to offense, attacking and dispelling in succession, shaking Qing Yu’s Protective Gang Qi continuously.

It seemed he was about to turn the tide and completely gain the upper hand.

’Indeed, the Four Symbols Cycle is like the most primitive method of the Three Elements Returning to Origin from "Feng Yun", which includes the Three Extremes: Heavenly Frost Fist, Cloud Clearing Palm, and Wind God Leg. The four absolute skills tightly coupled in the Four Symbols Cycle are endless.’

As enemy reinforcements were approaching and his own attacks had been frustrated and were on the verge of being turned, beneath Qing Yu’s bronze mask, his face did not show the slightest sign of panic. Instead, his eyes grew even brighter.

’Theoretically, the Four Symbols Cycle is impeccable, but the human body has its limits and cannot fully wield the theoretical power.’

At this moment, Qingxu’s Four Symbols Cycle was in its final phase. The "Azure Dragon Star Coiling Sword," the foremost of the Four Symbols, was about to be deployed, aiming to completely break through the "Innate Gang Qi" and settle the outcome of their duel.

’And your limit is right here.’

In that instant, Qingxu, facing Qing Yu, seemed to see his opponent’s eyes emitting a brilliance like the sparkle of stars.

Suddenly, Qing Yu’s figure vanished, demonstrating for the first time tonight his unmatched speed within the Innate Realm. To others, the Dragon Head Young Master Yu of the Azure Dragon Association seemed to teleport, instantly appearing at Qingxu’s right side, and with fingers gathered into a point like swift lightning, he struck several major acupoints on Qingxu’s right arm, sealing his energy channels.

’The theoretical power of the Four Symbols Cycle requires the simultaneous deployment of four absolute skills, similar to the original version of Three Elements Return to One. However, even if your talent reaches the sky, multitasking to employ all four limbs in Martial Arts simultaneously is impossible, unless you are a flying being from the Divinity Realm. The gap in switching to the last Martial Art is your limit, your weakness.’

The strike Qing Yu had been poised to deliver was interrupted, and with the True Qi rebounding, Qingxu suffered a heavy blow. In particular, the several major acupoints on his right arm that Qing Yu had sealed burst into sprays of blood mist, staining half of his Daoist robe red.

"Senior Brother!" XN

The remaining living disciples of the Zhenwu Sect cried out in shock, unable to believe that a battle which seemed to be turning in their favor was suddenly turning sharply downward, with the highly revered senior brother being defeated instantly.

Under the watchful eyes of the others, their expressions livid, Qing Yu indifferently caught the treasure sword that Qingxu could no longer hold due to a serious injury to his right arm, and slashed diagonally.

"Sever his hands to prevent him from causing trouble on the way."

Reinforcements were about to arrive, and they would not be able to capture all these disciples of the Zhenwu Sect tonight. However, capturing Qingxu and forcing the knowledge of the Four Symbols Ultimate Skills out of him was still a worthwhile tactic.

"Don’t imagine you can succeed!"

Qingzhou had been defensively using the Xuanwu Sea Control Sword, but suddenly reversed it, his True Qi erupting into the extremely forceful Vermilion Bird Burning Sky Sword, with which he managed to fend off Blood Bat No.6 who had been entangling him and positioned himself in front of Qingxu.

The sword edge brushed past, slicing open a fierce wound on Qingzhou’s upper body, and the trailing Sword Qi even scraped Qingxu’s forehead, leaving behind a bloody streak.

"Take the senior brother and escape!" Poisoned and injured by the sword, Qingzhou still managed to channel his True Qi to his back, pushing the severely wounded Qingxu toward the other disciples.

"Stop!" At the same time, a loud shout, like thunder, erupted, causing the ears of everyone present to almost burst, making it difficult for them to continue their attack. The reinforcements from the Zhenwu Sect had arrived, and from their appearance, untouched, they hadn’t been left with any ’souvenirs’ by Qing Yu’s subordinates.

’It’s no wonder he is a master from a Great Sect in the Divine Origin Realm, far surpassing the likes of Lin Tengyuan.’

The only one not deterred by the arriving master’s Sound Wave Technique was Qing Yu, who had closed off his hearing. This master had arrived faster than expected, and the tricks used against Lin Tengyuan had seemingly no effect on him. The only choice now was to retreat.

Grasping Qingzhou in front of him, since he couldn’t capture Qingxu, he would have to make do with him.

"Retreat!"

Qing Yu, clutching Qingzhou, leapt up high and shot out like an arrow. At the same time, Blood Bat No.6 also seized the softest target, who was none other than Chen Qinglin, the weakest among them all.

"How dare you!"

Seeing the enemy trying to kidnap their disciples during their escape, Xuan Wen, who had just arrived, did not know whether to call the opponent’s actions reckless or audacious, and he immediately tried to intercept.

However, several assassins dressed in black, Exorcism Sword Guards, silently blocked his path, preventing Xuan Wen from giving chase.

"Seeking death!" Xuan Wen did not want to talk, and he prepared to take the lives of those strangest of assassins he had gotten to know on the road. Although these assassins had bizarre martial arts skills and continuously attacked from the shadows, they were unable to pose any challenge to him, a master from the Divine Origin Realm, as long as he was careful.

However, these Exorcism Sword Guards, personally led by Qing Yu, were different from the rest.

As soon as Xuan Wen’s palm force made contact with an Exorcism Sword Guard, that guard exploded immediately, flesh and blood flying everywhere. Subsequently, as if triggering a certain setup, the rest of the Exorcism Sword Guards too exploded in succession, their blood-red flesh mixed with an eerie green color, spreading throughout the entire courtyard.

The Chain Corpse Decomposition Skill, a secret skill of the Star Constellation Old Monster Ding Chunqiu. But these Exorcism Sword Guards weren’t using the Corrosive Corpse Technique to detonate others’ bodies, rather, their own.

"Damn it!" Seeing the enemy resort to such a venomous tactic, Xuan Wen had no choice but to stop his attack and help the others first.

There was still someone in the courtyard whose importance far exceeded that of the abducted Qingzhou and Chen Qinglin. If Qingxu were to die from the poison gas, even if they rescued the two who were kidnapped, Zhenwu Sect would still suffer a great loss.
