Chapter 236 The Devilry of Dark Skies (1/2)

The three disciples of Zhengyi sect were speechless. The green-dressed girl was clenching her fists. Their Zhengyi Sect was also a considerably large sect, but still quite a distance away from Guangqing Sect.

For centuries, Guangqing had the five land immortals guarding the sect entrance. Other than Xuantian Sect, no other sects dared to offend them.

Guangqing had been expanding rapidly, taking in disciples and spells, with the intention to strengthen its essence. There was a rumor about a few Celestials with thousand years of heritage being exterminated, and all these were the works of Guangqing.

The three of them were here on their master's orders. They were also well-taken care by Xuantong. The item that they had prepared would have satisfied the owner of the Evergreen Flower. With this intervention by Huang Longzi, it was unsure then whether they were able to bring the Evergreen Flower back.

As Huang Longzi heard from Xuantong, he said, ”You and me, we both born from the heavens and die on earth, only part of the living beings. Even if we surpass that, the earth here still belonged to the heavens. Everyone could go, and why are you chasing me away? Even the spirits of the mountains, rivers, and lakes were only executing the heaven's orders, yet they were not that unapproachable.”

His words sounded so noble, his body filled with Dao aura, and the yellow cloud below his feet, stayed stationary and collected, signifying his solid cultivation.

The Incantation of Dragon Transformation that he mastered enables him to transform into a Five Clawed Dragon. Even when he was now in human form, there was still a subtle aura of the dragon around him. Dragons fly above all beings with full majesty, prompting all other beings to bow before whenever they see one.

Although all the attendees were highly ranked in cultivation, they could still feel the spiritual pressure emitted from Huang Longzi, which was kind of suffocating.

Especially those demonic cultivators felt an even stronger restriction on them.

Only Qing Huanger and Xuantong Demon Queen were the exceptions. Yet Qing Huanger had assessed the whole situation and kept quiet, he obviously also knew of the ruthlessness of Guangqing and not to oppose against.

Xuantong Demon Queen could not help giggling. Even Zhenren Shen, the chief of Qing Xuan Sect was acting politely, not as pushy as him lot from the Guangqing Sect. Could it be that she had preserved herself for these years that all people had forgotten about the work done to achieve what she had today?

Xuantong said lightly, ”Since the conversation has been brought up to this level, I have nothing else to interact with you. However, if you can receive my sword attack, I will let this one go and let you do what you want.”

Huang Longzi smiled back, ”Very well, Daoist friend, you are such straightforward person. If only I was not so desperate to get this Evergreen Flower, I would not want to cause trouble here.”

Judging from the persistence of a Daoist cultivator, this conversation had to end here, and all had to come down to a duel of Daoist techniques.

Manjushri, the Bodhisattva of keen awareness, killed hundred thousand of demon soldiers when he attained Dao. In actuality, highly skilled Daoists may be retaining themselves in good behavior and would not start a fight, but when a real situation ensues, they would not back down as well.

Huang Longzi also wanted to get the Evergreen Flower directly, but he knew very well that this treasure was untradable, all thanks to his premonition to predict the future events.

Shen Lian sat up, as he got the opportunity to witness the great prowess of Xuantong Demon Queen. She possessed a very wide range of spells, was a talent amongst the demons. It seemed like she was going to use her sword skills today to chase Huang Longzi away.

Xuantong Demon Queen hauled on, ”Jingting.”

The child smiled and shook his body, then appeared as a gleam of sword's ray, and then it fell on Xuantong's hand.

He was a piece of Jiejian Stone on Mount Jingting. For hundreds of years, there were countless sword cultivators who turned up at the mountain gates of Green Lotus Sect to place their sword on him as a sign of respect.

Hence, he was under the influence of countless sword aura. This Jiejian Stone has its own spiritual consciousness as well. When Xuantong Demon Queen first achieved Shentong, she moved effortlessly in Green Lotus Sword Sect and took the Green Lotus Sword Codex by force, and materialized this rock into a Daoist child and a sword for her.

The sword was clear as water, its hilt, guard, and blade had no other decorations. As it fell onto Xuantong's hand, the sword and yielder fused into one, not one would tell the difference whether the sword aura was emitted from Xuantong or was it from the sword. Many sword cultivators might spend their whole lives but still could not catch a glimpse of this high-skilled way of sword.

Xuantong Demon Queen arose, took a step in the void, then reached Huang Longzi's altitude.

Both of their eyes stared fiercely, accompanied by their long and unpredictable breath.

Suddenly, a sword glided through the skies with an almost unmatchable speed.

Huang Longzi had been matching this up silently, but he did not expect the speed of Xuantong's sword gleam, as it all happened in a split second, almost impossible to defend.

The yellow cloud below his foot shook and split into two streams of airflow, forming almost two rivers in the void, with its current flowing endlessly.

This step itself had everyone in amazement.

This step by Huang Longzi was not only exquisite but was also made with refined and rich mana, that surpassed most of the people there.

The air current rolled on and held the sword aura down, whereas another stream came in like a dragon wagging its tail, charged up towards Xuantong Demon Queen's body.

However, the sword aura was indeed extraordinary. In a movement, the sword aura burst and split into nine lively green lotuses with both its flower and leaves.

The nine lotus flowers sit on top of the air stream, and all the essence water entered the flowers as if they were sucked into it.
