Chapter 165 - 89: Killed, Talisman, Register of Huang Tian Sect Spies

Under this astonishing transformation, that seemingly plain long blade in the hand of the Huang Tian Sect General exploded with a terrifying and shocking might.

Around the blade, Qi swirled like dragons, layer upon layer, causing one's hair to stand on end, permeating a soul-stirring oppression.

Although it seemed like a casual slash, it left Shen Qing feeling as though he was in the midst of a storm, with no way to evade.

Shen Qing took a deep breath, his muscles tense.

The Dragon Roar Armor was driven to its peak by him.

A warm stream surged violently from his Dantian, quickly spreading throughout his body.

In the next moment, the membrane originally covering his skin due to the breakthrough with the Iron Cloth Shirt became crystal clear and more solid under his urging, closely wrapping him like armor.

"Bang!"

The long blade landed on Shen Qing's chest, producing a metallic slicing sound.

The Golden Silkworm Armor, which was originally impervious to blade and spear, was neatly cut open by this one strike, and the blade landed on the transparent membrane on Shen Qing's chest.

The crisp sound of metal friction and blazing light spilled out.

Driven by instinct in battle, Shen Qing couldn't help but take two steps back to avoid the momentum of the long blade.

Once he dodged the excess blade, he quickly lowered his head to look and found a thick white mark left on his chest, as if a solid block of ice had been cut.

Aside from that, there was no discomfort.

A look of surprise appeared on Shen Qing's face, and he immediately regarded the Martial Arts of the Dragon Roar Armor in a new light and gained a clearer understanding of the crystalline membrane.

"How is this possible?"

In contrast to Shen Qing's calm, the Huang Tian Sect General looked as though he had seen a ghost.

Others might not have known, but he was clear in his heart just how strong that slash was.

With the talisman's blessing, saying it was his strongest strike would not be an exaggeration.

Even if a martial master of the Qi Hai Realm stood before him, it would have been enough to inflict severe damage.

But this martial master in the Qi Cultivation Realm, who had not yet learned the skill of external Qi manifestation to condense Qi into formidability, blocked it with just his flesh and blood, which overturned his understanding.

Realizing the frightening defense of the Dragon Roar Armor, Shen Qing instantly felt immense confidence, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"As a martial master of the Qi Hai Realm, is this what you're capable of?" he suddenly spoke, staring at his opponent.

The Huang Tian Sect General instinctively met his gaze, only to see a pair of eyes like those of a beast awakening, flickering with a bloodthirsty gleam that made one's heart tremble, leaving him stunned.

"You..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw, with a roar, a pair of fingers rapidly piercing his chest with an ear-piercing sound.

"Poof!"

A pale yellow and semi-transparent Light Shield and runes suddenly appeared in front of the Huang Tian Sect General, blocking these sudden fingers.

The Huang Tian Sect General could no longer remain calm; he swung his long blade horizontally, the sharp blade transforming into a silver ray aimed at Shen Qing's neck: "Die!"

"Nine Revolutions Mysterious Skill, Fifth Transformation!"

At this moment, the blazing aura of the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Skill and fierce Qi melded together, erupting between Shen Qing's two fingers like a volcanic eruption, rushing out.

Boom!

An earth-shattering explosion, heat waves and gusts scattered, and the massive body of the Huang Tian Sect General was violently thrown out under the impact of this force, emitting a heart-wrenching scream.

Shen Qing was momentarily stunned, the power of the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Skill's Fifth Transformation exceeded his imagination.

Feeling a swirl of dizziness, Shen Qing instinctively operated the Blood Dominance Technique to replenish the reversed deficiency in Qi-Blood.

He glanced at the Huang Tian Sect General, his expression fierce.

Kick him while he's down.

Shen Qing leaped, carrying an oppressive and scorching aura, and his fingers landed unerringly on the Huang Tian Sect General's chest once more.

Boom!

The Huang Tian Sect General's barely supported body, clumsily climbing up, was instantly struck back into the ground by Shen Qing's force.

Under this powerful impact, a two-meter-wide deep pit was forcibly hollowed out in the ground, with dust swirling in all directions.

The semi-transparent Light Shield, supported by the talisman, was shattered instantly.

Losing the talisman's power, his body visibly shrank, restoring to its original state.

"Ah!!!" The eyes of the Huang Tian Sect General were filled with disbelief and fear: "My power."

"It seems that's all you are."

Shen Qing looked down loftily at the Huang Tian Sect General, a hint of disappointment on his face.

He thought the person before him would at least bring him some surprises, but he didn't expect that even using 80% of his power did not push him to his limits.

Since that's the case... then die!

Shen Qing activated the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Skill again, pointing both fingers at the Huang Tian Sect General.

Accompanied by an exceedingly blazing aura, the air around his fingers was distorted by the high temperature.

Realizing the immense danger, the Huang Tian Sect General screamed: "Spare... spare me..."

But before he could finish speaking, he saw the red light burst from Shen Qing's fingers, piercing through his chest.

A harrowing pain surged like a tide, instantly engulfing his whole body.

The scorching Qi that Shen Qing added burned through his heart with terrifying force.

At that moment, the Huang Tian Sect General seemed to be suddenly bound by an invisible force, turning into a statue, losing all movement.

His hollow eyes stared blankly at the sky, faintly showing a trace of despair.

On the official road, there was suddenly a dead silence.

Only the faint sound of the wind rustling through the mountain forest could be heard.

At this moment, Li Linfeng and others were filled with disbelief, staring at Shen Qing in stunned silence.

Even County Magistrate Du Yuntong, who was discarded on the ground, became dumbstruck.

Qi Hai Realm!

That was a martial master of the Qi Hai Realm after all.

Few and far between in Taiping County, yet you killed him like a dog!!!

"Are you really Shen Qing?"

As Shen Qing's master, Li Linfeng, who initially had the foresight to take him as a disciple, now spoke with a slightly trembling voice, tinged with a bit of nervousness.

Upon hearing this, Shen Qing curled his lips into a smile and said: "Master, who else could I be but Shen Qing? I'm not any big figure in Taiping County, who would impersonate me?"

Li Linfeng, with his vast experience and deep understanding of Martial Arts, recognized the martial skills Shen Qing used, aside from the Wind Defying Finger, including Dragon Roar Armor, Nine Revolutions Mysterious Skill, and some martial arts he didn't comprehend.

An expression of shock was hard to hide in his eyes.

It's hard to imagine so many martial arts gathered in one person and all being practiced to perfection.

After a moment, the tension on Li Linfeng's face slowly turned into a look of excitement, even his body trembled uncontrollably.

The same martial art would manifest differently in different hands.

He never expected, in his lifetime, that he could teach such a monstrosity.

It was worth it!

Incredibly worth it!

Aside from Li Linfeng, others were also unable to recover for a long time.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Shen Qing couldn't help but let out a silent laugh.

Not caring about these people's gazes, he quickly walked to the side of the Huang Tian Sect General and stooped down.

This person held a high position in the Huang Tian Sect, worth searching.

Shen Qing's fingers quickly searched the clothing on the corpse, and with the nimble flipping of his fingers, a stack of talismans emitting a faint spiritual light quietly appeared before him.

With a rough glance, there seemed to be seven or eight of them.

Having witnessed the Huang Tian Sect General's methods, one glance at these talismans revealed their extraordinariness.

Shen Qing accepted them joyfully.

Moments later, he also found a small triangular flag, a purse, and a thin book.

The small book had no text on the outside, and Shen Qing, upon opening it, found it recorded some people's lives and information, somewhat resembling a directory.

There was also a letter tucked inside the small book.

Shen Qing did not examine it carefully and quickly collected these items together.
