Chapter 509: Chapter 5 Attack

The target wasn’t in the town but in the woods outside of it.

Qing Yu didn’t know why Zhang Xuanji had chosen to find a Medicine Man outside the town, but none of that was important.

What mattered were the three True Pill Realm individuals from the Zhenwu Sect and Dragon Tiger Mountain.

"It would be best to capture those two from the Zhenwu Sect to find out more about the current situation there," Qing Yu thought deeply as he flitted through the woods.

Zhenwu Sect had been a part of Qing Yu’s life for many months. He planned to revisit this sect one day, so the deeper his understanding, the better.

"Whoa—"

"Hm?" Qing Yu stopped, "Crane call."

Looking up, his superior eyesight spotted the silhouette of a red-crowned crane soaring in the distant sky.

"Brother Xuanji, you didn’t mention that among those two from the Zhenwu Sect, there was a Peak Master of the Zhenwu Seven Peaks," Qing Yu called out to Zhang Xuanji.

Each Peak Master from the Zhenwu Seven Peaks had powers of at least the Golden Core Seventh Transition, with profound foundations. Even those in the Golden Core Seventh Transition were stronger than some Jianghu Wandering Cultivators at the True Pill Peak. In terms of strength, Zhang Xuanji was perhaps only comparable to that Peak Master.

That meant Qing Yu was likely going to have to deal with the other two True Pill Realms.

"It’s nothing more than a fruitless return. Although you’ve just advanced to the True Pill, there is a strange sense of danger about you that keeps me on guard. I think handling two True Pills wouldn’t be a problem."

After speaking, Zhang Xuanji created a breeze under his feet and, with the image of a dragon and tiger around him, charged into the forest first.

"His perception is indeed sharp; despite all my efforts to conceal it, he still noticed something off," Qing Yu thought, shaking his head.

The crisis Zhang Xuanji felt stemmed from the Xuanyin Twelve Swords.

The primary power of this sinister sword technique lay in its Sword Intent. Qing Yu, possessing the Xuanyin Sword Intent, could leverage the Xuanyin Twelve Swords to exert a combat strength beyond his realm. It was only natural for Zhang Xuanji to feel threatened.

"Still, due to my insufficient realm, despite having absorbed the Xuanyin Twelve Swords’ Sword Intent, I couldn’t refine it completely, hence why Zhang Xuanji noticed something was amiss."

Now that his secret was out, Qing Yu no longer held back. Surrounded by a ghostly green Xuanyin Sword Energy, he abandoned using the Illusion Demon Body Method for travel, instead transforming into a sword, shooting forward like lightning.

The two, initiating a sudden attack, stormed into the forest like lightning, aiming for their respective targets.

"Ming Yan blazing light."

Unexpectedly, their opponents struck first, seemingly unfazed by the ambush. A fierce red light, like that of the sun, instantly filled the vision of Qing Yu and his companion.

Undying Seven Illusions·Transforming Existence into Nothingness.

Qing Yu’s figure vanished instantly, traceless, the blazing brightness piercing only a phantom.

Zhang Xuanji was much fiercer: Gathering the Dragon and Tiger, with Thunder Light and dazzling thunder amongst his movements.

"Boom—"

Thunder roared, Zhang Xuanji’s Thunder Light countered the blazing light. Like the Thunder God incarnate, he raised his hand and slashed out streams of thunder and lightning, forcibly dispersing the opponent’s preemptive attack of intense light.

Before he retired to focus on alchemy, Zhang Xuanji was also a significant figure in Feng Yun. Had he not been highly skilled, even with the Shadow King’s assistance, he would have long been flayed by Dragon Tiger Mountain.

After researching the Human Furnace Alchemy Method, Zhang Xuanji’s Qi Mechanism reached an unprecedented level of strength, possessing a powerful True Energy, unmatchable even by some Demon Way Martial Artists who practiced the Absorption Skill.

These practitioners of the Absorption Skill might have more True Energy than Zhang Xuanji, but in terms of True Energy quality, they could hardly compare.

Having advanced to True Pill recently, Qing Yu witnessed Zhang Xuanji’s full burst of power for the first time and had to admit that with such strength, it was believable that he could be ranked on the earthly list.

"Thunder Skill?!"

"It’s you, Zhang Xuanji!!"

Expressionless, Zhang Xuanji’s body flashed with lightning, striking black marks on the ground as he strode forward, "Zhang Xuanlian, I didn’t expect it to be you. Good, in light of our past relationship, surrender now, and I might spare your life."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuanlian cursed loudly, "I have no damn relation with you. When you betrayed the sect, all of us in our branch suffered. Today, I will make you, the traitor, pay for your past deeds."

Among their peers from Dragon Tiger Mountain, differences in their lineage also meant differences in their generation names.

Like the brothers, Zhang Yuanfeng and Zhang Yuanlu, although peers to Zhang Xuanji, they were from the ’Yuan’ generation. This made it clear that Zhang Xuanlian was from the same lineage as Zhang Xuanji.

And it seemed that Zhang Xuanlian’s lineage indeed had suffered because of Zhang Xuanji; he even discarded the formal speech for "I."

"Since that’s the case, don’t blame me for being ruthless."

Zhang Xuanji said so, but he actually confronted the people from Zhenwu Sect directly, "Leave those two to you. I’ll handle Xuanming."

"Be careful not to let Zhang Xuanlian die."

As he said this, Qing Yu saw a strong greed and desire in Zhang Xuanji’s eyes. If Xuanming were not there, Zhang Xuanji would likely have attempted to capture Zhang Xuanlian recklessly.

After all, when it came to capturing True Pill Realm Martial Artists, Zhang Xuanji was a professional, unlike Qing Yu, a complete novice.

Thunder roared again, and Zhang Xuanji gathered lightning in his palm, unleashing the Palming Thunder of the Thunder Skill against the strongest enemy—Xuanming, the Peak Master of Chi Ming Peak from the True Martial Sect.

"Hmph, how arrogant."

Xuanming snorted coldly, intense light bursting from his body. The surrounding trees burst into flames after being swept by the intense light.

"Brother Xuanming, be extremely cautious. This traitor Zhang Xuanji has mastered the Thunder Skill, his strength is not to be underestimated," Zhang Xuanlian hastily warned.

"Be careful." Another Taoist from Zhenwu Sect, Xuan Yun, suddenly shouted.

But it was too late.

Xuanyin Twelve Swords·Qiankun Renwoxing.

Heart arrives, body follows. A swift emerald sword light passed, taking one of Zhang Xuanlian’s ears and a large chunk of flesh.

Had he not tilted his head in time, that swift sword would have taken his head.

But the crisis was far from over.

Xuanyin Twelve Swords·Heaven and Earth Only I.

The sword light howled, and a solid-looking sword energy, shaped like a real treasured sword, spiraled through the air with unmatched power.

"Dark Northern Abyss."

A sudden surge of deep tidal water appeared, and a dark water vortex emerged in front of the Xuanyin Sword Energy, abruptly swallowing it.

It was Xuan Yun.

This Taoist possessed remarkable skills in the Xuanwu Sea Suppressing Skill, and he managed to swallow the Xuanyin Sword Energy with the Force of Black Water.

’The Four Symbols Ultimate Skills of the True Martial Sect, it seems I have underestimated these four skills.’

A skill considered an Absolute Skill by a sect is invariably exceptional. Although Qing Yu had also practiced the Four Symbols Ultimate Skills, he only valued their fundamental principles, hoping to derive the Eight Diagrams from the Four Symbols, without delving too deeply into these four martial arts.

"The Xuanwu Sea Suppressing, indeed remarkable, but do you think this is enough to break the Xuanyin Sword Energy······"
