Chapter Eighty-Four: The True Martial Arts of War

  Chen Xuan's attacking posture was not at all a state of oneness with heaven and man, but rather Chen Xuan had an additional aura of fearlessness and disregard for death, which created the illusion of being one with heaven and man. The true state of oneness with heaven and man is rarely understood by anyone below the Earth Spirit realm. Only those who have grasped the existence of the Tao can touch the boundaries of heaven and earth, and only then can they utilize a thread of heaven and earth's energy for their own use. Chen Xuan's aura was rising step by step, and the two people facing him thought that if they didn't launch an attack soon, they would likely be defeated by this aura.

  "Flame Mountain Re-Waves", Ning Fei Xiang borrowed the Douliang Chi again to strike out this move, but its power was augmented by the Half-Yuan Instrument. The flames emitted now were infinitely close to real flames, and the surroundings turned into an ocean of flames. Just as Ning Fei Xiang struck out this move, Zhou Tian Ming on the opposite side also moved, pointing his long sword at the ground. Tens of thousands of sword auras rose from the ground and flew towards Chen Xuan, each one capable of splitting ordinary Lingwu Realm practitioners into countless pieces. Chen Xuan was trapped in the center of the flames and sword array, with countless sword auras trying to tear him apart and scorching flames attempting to burn him to ashes.

  "Soft chop," Chen Xuan's evil charm lightly fell, as if the time and space around him had slowed down a bit, even the sword energy surrounding Chen Xuan had become extremely slow, as if Chen Xuan's knife had no momentum, nor any power, just lightly swung down. However, upon closer inspection, this move contained countless changes. When it was fast to the extreme, it seemed slow. I believe all book-loving friends know that when looking at a car's wheels, when the speed reaches a certain limit, it seems to be spinning backwards.

  This is the best explanation of Chen Xuan's move, which seems slow but is actually as fast as lightning. When Chen Xuan's sword finally falls, a deafening sound shakes the sky, and all the surrounding sword energy is dispersed. The flames are blown away for tens of miles, and a light circle with a diameter of hundreds of meters spreads out from Chen Xuan in all directions. The surroundings become a desolate land, swept clean by Chen Xuan's light circle. Even the person standing opposite him is forced back hundreds of meters before stopping.

  "What kind of move is this, how can it block our combined attack and even knock us back?"

  Both of their faces showed an incomprehensible expression, I didn't see this move when I saw the kid fight last night, how did he come up with this move today, its power is comparable to a top-level martial skill, could it be that the kid's martial skill is top-level, then his kung fu must be at least top-level, or even surpassing top-level and reaching divine level.

  Good heavens, divine technique! That's a skill that only immortals can cultivate. "How did this kid get his hands on such a technique? It must be divine. I have to get it today," Ning Feixia thought like a madman, completely disregarding his image, and said to Zhou Tianming standing beside him;

  Standing beside him, Zhou Tianming was also filled with shock. If it were truly a divine-level technique, they would quickly reach the Yuanwu realm, or even the Earth Spirit and Heaven Spirit realms. How could they not be excited? How could they not go crazy? These were just legendary existences. On the Tianling Continent, the best techniques were only at the Heavenly level, and even top-grade Heavenly techniques were hard to find, with most having become extinct. Perhaps only some ancient sects still had records of them. At most, on the Tianling Continent now, lower-grade Heavenly techniques were already considered the best.

  Chen Xuan was also completely submerged in the previous move, Chen Xuan also had a sudden idea, and fully integrated the first three moves of the Seven Kills Sword, only to launch this move. So Chen Xuan temporarily called it "Rou He Jian" (Soft Harmony Slash). Originally, he wanted to harmonize with the previous three moves, which was almost impossible to accomplish. If the harmony was not good, the power would be reduced instead.

  But after Chen Xuan came into contact with that ancient scroll, he discovered that the profundity of martial skills was not something that could be reached at present. From that martial skill, Chen Xuan's understanding of martial skills was much deeper than ordinary people. The forging technique in that book was definitely not the best war equipment forging technique, but it was much better than the current forging technique.

  Including the attached martial art, the complexity is also several times that of Qī Shā Dāo. After coming into contact with a more complex martial art than Qī Shā Dāo, Chen Xuan found Qī Shā Dāo to be too simple, so he easily merged the first three knives together, and its power was also several times that of the third move Spiral Slash; otherwise, it would not have been able to withstand the attack of two True Martial Realm cultivators.

  "What's wrong with you two? Are there any moves you haven't used yet? Now you can use them all together,"

  Now Chen Xuan can resist two people with this move, but it's hard to hurt them. One-on-one, Chen Xuan is confident that he can kill one of them, unfortunately, they won't give him such an opportunity. Chen Xuan said to the two in front of him:

  "You little mongrel, today we really didn't think you'd be so troublesome, but for the two of us to want to kill you is as easy as turning our hands over. Don't think that you can now withstand the joint attack of the two of us, earlier was just 50% of my strength, now I'm going to tear you into a million pieces, I'll refine you into my puppet, and make you serve me for all eternity," Zhou Tianming also got angry, Super Chen Xuan angrily said.

  "Let's have a real fight now", the two said, and to their surprise, they flew up. This was an ability that only those in the True Martial Realm possessed, and those in the Spiritual Martial Realm were not yet able to fly. The two rose into mid-air, each making various hand gestures. Zhou Tianming brought out the "Ten Thousand Array Method", trying to trap Chen Xuan in the middle, while Ning Feixia also brought out various arrays, wanting to control Chen Xuan with layer upon layer of seals and talismans that flew towards Chen Xuan, attempting to seal him away.

  "Think you can seal me away," Chen Xuan sneered, "Four cycles of reincarnation, four heavens..." At the same time, Chen Xuan launched two moves, each one colliding with countless seals, the explosions in the sky sounding like thunderclaps. Countless seals were blocked by Chen Xuan and couldn't get close to him.

  But this isn't a long-term solution, they may not be able to kill themselves for the time being, but once their spiritual energy is insufficient, they can only be slaughtered by others. Although the Heaven-Devouring Furnace can absorb a large amount of spiritual energy, their own dantian is also extremely terrifying. Now, relying on the absorption speed of the Heaven-Devouring Furnace is completely unable to keep up with their own consumption during battle. Once they run out of spiritual energy, they will be sealed by the opponent. The yuanli of the True Martial Realm is ten times that of the Lingwu, it's impossible for them to consume it so quickly. There are only over a million yuanling dan left in the Heaven-Devouring Furnace, just enough for themselves to devour once. It's best to end the battle as soon as possible.

  Chen Xuan was fighting the two people above him while thinking about the current situation. Although they were evenly matched for now, Chen Xuan knew that he was still at a disadvantage. After all, he didn't have the ability to kill them and could only hold out for a while. Time had passed for a long time, and his spiritual power would likely be depleted soon. The spiritual power in his dantian could only last for about an incense stick's worth of time. What should he do? Chen Xuan repeatedly analyzed the situation in front of him, but found that he still hadn't escaped danger.

  The two people standing in mid-air were also depressed. How could this kid's spiritual power be so strong and not exhausted after such a long time? This was also the reason why they had vowed to kill Chen Xuan. Now, the two of them just wanted to control Chen Xuan and let his spiritual power exhaust completely. At present, neither of them had exerted their strongest strength, and both still reserved some energy. Although the two were now standing on the same line, they didn't dare guarantee that after killing Chen Xuan, one party would kill the other, so as to monopolize Chen Xuan's kung fu for themselves.

  This Zhou Tianming is also an old fox, leaving 30% of his strength behind, probably to kill Chen Xuan and then deal with me. Ning Feixia thought coldly.

  Zhou Tianming looked at Ning Feixia's face with a cold smile. You, Ning Feixia, know to leave some strength in reserve; I, Zhou Tianming, don't know? Who doesn't know that you, Ning Feixia, are as cunning as a fox? Today, it's impossible for me to fall into your trap. Once I exhaust all my yuan energy, you, Ning Feixia, will definitely kill me to silence me.

  Standing in mid-air, Zhou Tianming secretly took a glance at Ning Feixia and knew that Ning Feixia hadn't used his full strength, but was instead making a feint attack. He would wait until Zhou Tianming had exhausted most of his energy before making his move. This Ning Feixia was indeed too calculating.

  After today's events pass, it's best to minimize interactions with him; his mind is too deep and complex. For now, let's focus on dealing with this little brat first, then obtain the gong fa later. Finally, we'll see if we can take down this Ning Feixia. Zhou Tianming thought to himself in mid-air.
