Chapter 236 The Devilry of Dark Skies (2/2)
As the lotus flowers rotated, every one of them appeared to be white, crystal clear like the pearl, and as the skylight hit on them, they all turned into seven gorgeous colors.
The crowd was trying to admire the view when they saw the dews on the lotus leaves flew out to form thousands of water drop shaped sword aura sped through the air and pierced through Huang Longzi. The sharp sword aura filled the void all around. Before the aura hit him, he was shocked to feel a sensation as if his orifice points were combusting.
This demon queen was such a genuinely feared character. She managed to cultivate the Green Lotus Sword Codex to the extent of 'One Sword Splitting into Nine Lotuses', which could take in the essence of all waters and release the top sword technique of 'Outflowing Lotus'.
He knew very well, if he got attacked by the thousand droplets of water, he would not get away so easily. Even though Xuantong Demon Queen said that she would release one step, but that one step had a thousand varieties, finally entrapping him. She might just follow through and leave him some souvenirs.
Although Huang Longzi got a bit flustered, he transferred his mana and transformed into a dragon in a blink, with waving whiskers and shining scales.
The thousand water droplets had him encased, with the sword aura hitting on its scales; as the sounds of collision between metal and gold could be heard. Finally, it still did not penetrate the dragon's shield of scale.
All the audience could not help but thought, ”This yellow dragon is really one of its kind.”
Before this thought was done, Xuantong Demon Queen was seen putting up a Dao formula, and her hands lit up. She held a deadly Qi of devilry, threw it out like a flash, which then rammed through the dragon scales, leaving a big splash of bloody mist in the void.
Now the audience was in shock, they all thought, ”That was more than one step.”
Huang Longzi even yelled in pain, ”The Devilry of the Dark Skies, you possess this sort of demonic technique!”
Almost immediately after that, he disappeared into the sea of clouds, accompanied with the blood mist. Huang Longzi also did not expect Xuantong Demon Queen to go against her words, that she would attack him after one step, using the long lost demonic technique, The Devilry of the Dark Skies, to kill him.
The Devilry of the Dark Skies was a mystical technique in the Dao of demons, created specifically to break through the protection of the Daoist cultivations. It did not matter if the opponent had the body of a
Vajra, a hit would still inflict a great deal of injury.
But once this Devilry of Dark Skies was released, not only would it take a long time to gather, it also required some specific Qi of devilry, coupled with a certain evil act to master. Once mastered, it would still be wise to use it moderately.
Xuantong Demon Queen may not have defeated Huang Longzi in one step as she mentioned, but she still had the upper hand in the end.
All the spectating cultivators just thought that Xuantong Demon Queen had just got herself into big trouble.
Not mentioning the five land immortals in Guangqing, even the other eleven apprentice siblings were all Daoist Masters of Powang level, especially there was Daoist Huanzhen with a level that was approaching the gods.
If he really brought his apprentice siblings here to seek revenge from Xuantong, it would be impossible for Xuantong Demon Queen to save this celestial market even if she ran away.
Maybe this time, Guangqing would take this opportunity to take over this celestial market and monopolize the trade business.
Even though Xuantong Demon Queen claimed that she had studied Daoism under Lu Jiuyuan, all the other cultivators would not believe that Xuantian Sect would stand up for her.
With Lu Jiuyuan around, the Guangqing would never act opposingly to Xuantian Sect, the top Daoist sect in the world, no matter how arrogant they were.
The girl in green sighed in relief, and whispered, ”What shall we do now, Third Senior Apprentice-Brother? Senior Xuantong has offended Guangqing for our sake, this is not good.”
Third Senior Apprentice-Brother remained calm, ”When Senior Xuantong ruled the world, both you and I were not born yet. She must have her reason to do such act. Guangqing has been acting quite ruthlessly. Grand Master did say, it would over flourish and then weaken down, and we the Zhengyi Sect mustn't just sit back and watch.”
As compared to the serenity of the four grand Daoist sects, Guangqing sect was more worldly and they had the ambition to revamp the Xuanmen and rebuild the order of the cultivation realm.
Although revamping the Xuanmen and rebuilding order may be helpful in promoting interaction between cultivators, but no sect would be willing to be part of this revolution.
The Grandmaster's orthodoxy of thousand years was so carefree. Though small, the sect was enough for one to fit in, much better than being restricted by the rules set by another sect.
When Shen Lian saw how Xuantong Demon Queen injured Huang Longzi, he could not figure out why Xuantong would do such a thing. After all, no matter how high Xuantong's cultivation level was, it was still inferior to Mister Hai's level. All the twelve masters in Guangqing had cultivation levels as high as Huang Longzi's. If two or three of them came, they would not be easy to handle.
The Treasure Auction was about to end then. Shen Lian walked over to find Zhao Xiaoyu after collecting his bidded treasure.
Looking from far, she stood there alone, so prettily like a lotus flower emerging from the water. One could only admire from far, and not offend her. As she saw Shen Lian walking over, she could not hold back her smile, ”This is the first time Mister Shen came over to look for me. I am actually quite shocked.”
Her face was wearing the emotions of surprise and delight, just like the saying, 'After seeing the man, there is no reason to not be happy'.
Shen Lian felt a bit helpless, that women's thoughts were sometimes so difficult to read. Now he could not tell if Zhao Xiaoyu was being genuine or not.
