Chapter Nine, Divine and Demonic Body

Master, one must also consider whether there is prestige

Boom. His thick-backed machete swung down with a single stroke.

Two blades clashed together, sparking a shower of sparks

The disparity in strength is indeed too great

"So fast, I still missed." Wu Qi felt a tightening in his heart, but fortunately, he prudently raised his shield to protect his surroundings. With one hand on the shield and the other wielding a large broadsword, he was executing a supreme skill from the Mirror Lake Dao Academy, the "Two Instruments Shield and Sword Technique." This top-tier skill greatly increased the chances of survival on the battlefield. Therefore, Wu Qi chose the Dark Cloud Demon Body, which was suitable for this supreme skill.

Wu Qi did not have time to raise his shield in defense, and the tip of the blade was already pressed against his throat

Compared to Bai Guanhao, there is no ability to fight back

This was his first encounter with the realm of washing marrow, where he was thoroughly defeated

He was already aware of the terror of the secret technique

The Unity Realm is the first grand realm of swordsmanship techniques

Master Meng Chuan! Suddenly, amidst the bustling crowd of numerous junior brothers and sisters, a voice called out.

The secret technique is the integration of body, mind, and skill, which naturally unleashes terrifying power and speed

Meng Chuan nodded

He comprehended the secret technique and defeated Wu Qi, who had reached the 'Perfected Transcendence Realm', during the Cleansing Marrow Stage... Moreover, Meng Chuan will soon step into the Transcendence Realm, at which point the gap between him and his fellow disciples will become even more pronounced... Even the Transcendence Realm cannot withstand his single strike

"What are you little rascals running so fast for?" The main entrance of the Meng family ancestral home is quite large, and naturally, there are clan members guarding it, who also recognize these younger members of the clan.

"Hahaha... alright, come down now," Dean Ge Yu said with a cheerful smile, unusually amiable. "Let the other disciples at the Washing Marrow stage decide the remaining two spots."

Master Brother

Master Brother

Even in this battle, his chances of winning are very slim

Kill. At the moment when the shield missed its target, Wu Qi skillfully swung his thick-backed broadsword, colliding with Meng Chuan's strike.

Come on! Meng Chuan looked at the audience, his eyes ablaze with passion

Yes

I still have hope of winning Wu Qi gritted his teeth and charged forward again, his demeanor as aggressive as that of cavalry, crashing forward with great speed

Meng Chuan has comprehended a secret technique at the Mirror Lake Daoist Academy

Wu Qi took a step back to steady himself, while Meng Chuan was propelled backward several zhang with a slight push of his foot

I have lost," Wu Qi said in a low voice, "The secret technique is more terrifying than I imagined. It not only allows you to unleash a more horrifying power and speed, but your swordsmanship is also much more exquisite.

If dealing with a normal washing marrow realm, if two knives are used to strike, one blow from him could kill the washing marrow realm.

Puff

Senior Brother Meng has comprehended the secret technique

Meng Chuan's movement technique is extremely swift, with blade lights flashing one after another, executing the Falling Leaves Blade Technique.

"Useless, you cannot hurt me." Wu Qi stood there, skillfully using his sword and shield to block Meng Chuan's elusive strike.

Even if one is in the state of washing the marrow while holding a shield, they can still be struck to the point of spitting blood by a single blow

Ding!!!

Yes. Meng Chuan also immediately came down.

One by one, the Meng family descendants are demonstrating their lightness skills, rushing towards the ancestral home

He struck at empty air with his blade, yet the shield in his hand blocked Meng Chuan's elusive strike.

Meng Chuan has discovered a secret technique

As soon as Meng Chuan moved his foot, he evaded the strike of the shield and reached the side of Wu Qi, with the blade flashing as it slashed towards Wu Qi.

Meng Chuan has comprehended the secret technique! The first Meng family youth to arrive shouted loudly, leaving the clan members guarding the entrance somewhat astonished. While they were still in shock, the youth rushed into the ancestral home, continuing to shout: Meng Chuan has comprehended the secret technique!

Wu Qi looked at the knife pressed against his throat, gazing at Meng Chuan before him

One by one, they are all shouting

I have met Senior Brother Meng," Wan Mang said with a smile, cupping his hands in greeting.

Defensively impenetrable and offensively fierce, he has thus earned the distinction of being the top disciple in the Transcendence Realm at the Mirror Lake Academy

"Starting today, you will be the strongest among the thousands of disciples of the Mirror Lake Dao Academy," Wu Qi said to Meng Chuan, "You are now the contemporary senior brother of the Mirror Lake Dao Academy"

Whoosh!

Bang

"To unleash such secret techniques, how can one possibly generate such immense power?" Wu Qi's pupils constricted

Puff

Boom

With just six strikes, Wu Qi was forced to stagger and barely managed to defend himself afterwards

The power he just unleashed is close to seventy percent of my own, which is equivalent to my strength in the late stage of the Transformation Realm. Wu Qi was very surprised, Is this the power of the secret technique

The secret technique, Three Autumn Leaves, resulted in a tremendous increase in both strength and speed, even more astonishingly so. It enabled Meng Chuan's strength to reach approximately 70% of Wu Qi's (who has achieved the Perfected Stage of the Transcendence Realm), while his speed utterly surpassed that of Wu Qi. Furthermore, his control over the sword techniques became more refined, with the sword moves perfectly complementing each other. In just seven consecutive strikes, he broke through Wu Qi's defense, which was based on his expertise in the Two Instruments Shield Sword Technique.

I have met Senior Brother Meng. The disciples around, including the mountains, waters, and buildings, all smiled and greeted him, with some of the fellow disciples showing a hint of flattery. They were all very aware that Meng Chuan was completely different from them; he was one of the most extraordinary geniuses in the entire Dongning Prefecture, with the potential to become a deity or a demon in the future

Wu Qi was somewhat taken aback upon hearing the dean's command, but soon his eyes began to brighten as he looked at Meng Chuan on the arena, breaking into a grin: "Alright, then let's have a match."

At the beginning, Wu Qi was able to withstand the attacks with some confidence, but Meng Chuan's strikes came one after another, seamlessly connected, making it increasingly difficult for him to defend. After all, with each block, his defense would become distorted, and Meng Chuan, through his relentless sword technique, was tearing apart his defenses, creating larger and larger gaps.

Wu Qi, who is most adept at the secret technique 'Three Autumn Leaves', is capable of sensing even the fastest speeds and can respond accordingly

I still fall short compared to him in terms of the power unleashed by the secret technique, the Autumn Leaf, which ultimately favors speed. Meng Chuan thought to himself, and with a movement, another 'Meng Chuan' appeared over ten zhang away.

Whoosh

... ...

The senior brother of the Dao Academy is the strongest among all the disciples of the academy. After defeating Wu Qi, Meng Chuan naturally became the senior brother of the Jinghu Dao Academy

A swift thrust

Clang. He took the shield he was carrying on his back into his hands and drew a thick-bladed machete from within the shield. The machete was entirely black, with a faint red glow.

The demonic body that Senior Brother Wu Qi is cultivating is the Dark Cloud Demonic Body, isn't it? Meng Chuan said, and the aura that startled him was clearly the aura of the demonic body

He stepped onto the stage much faster than before.

Secular cultivation: Foundation establishment, internal refinement, marrow washing, rebirth, and non-leakage

The first three levels of cultivation are relatively ordinary, allowing one to cultivate true energy and gradually strengthen the mundane physical body, with not much difference between each other

The previous few senior brothers of the Mirror Lake Daoist Academy lacked authority, as their advantages in strength were not significant. None of them had comprehended the secret techniques. With little difference in skills, it was possible that during a certain competition, they could be overturned by their junior brothers and sisters.

With a shield in one hand and a thick-backed machete in the other, Wu Qi stood there like an unshakable mountain, an invisible aura emanating from him, causing the many junior disciples watching from a distance to tremble involuntarily.

Other members of the Meng family rushed in one after another

An absolutely invincible senior brother is the only one who can earn the complete trust of all junior brothers and sisters

Wu Qi charged forward with a shield, swift as a phantom, directly striking Meng Chuan with the shield. The force was such that it could collapse a house.

The practitioners of Jinghu Daoist Academy are foremost in their expertise

Ke Mengchuan is different

Whoosh

It was once said by ancient deities that the potential of the human body is immense. A mortal who has never practiced cultivation would struggle to lift a weight of 100 jin. However, if one could truly and perfectly harness their potential, engaging the strength of every bone and muscle, they could unleash a force exceeding 10,000 jin. Of course, this is purely an imagined perfect mobilization of all potential.

However, the meaning of the fourth level of 'transcendence' is to shed the mortal body! It is at this level that one begins to cultivate the divine and demonic body, allowing mortals to possess a portion of divine and demonic power, which results in a remarkable enhancement. Wu Qi is cultivating the Dark Cloud Demon Body and has reached the perfection of the Transcendence Realm. His power and speed are extraordinarily terrifying, far surpassing the perfection of the Cleansing Marrow Realm.

"Indeed, it is the Dark Cloud Demon Body!" After Wu Qi finished speaking, he suddenly charged towards Meng Chuan. Though it was a single person attacking, it felt as if an entire army was bearing down! There were no changes in tactics, only a pure impact of speed and strength

The Two-Element Shield and Sword Technique, one Yin and one Yang, is indeed formidable. However, I wonder how many of my moves it can withstand. " Meng Chuan's voice was still echoing as he charged forward.

Here! Wu Qi is cultivating the Dark Cloud Demon Body, skilled in sensing his surroundings, and is able to detect that a figure has already arrived.

In reality, the higher the level of skills such as swordsmanship and knife techniques, the more astonishing the potential that can be harnessed

Hmph

Dark Cloud Demon Body, in conjunction with the Two Instruments Shield and Sword Technique

Having finished speaking, Wu Qi directly descended from the arena
