Chapter 237 An Encounter at the Seapor (1/2)
Huang Longzi transformed into a real dragon and flew for several days without knowing how far he had flown. He only saw a mighty in front that flows into the sea. The river was wide with its width spanning across at least a hundred miles. It was hard to separate the river from the sea if it was not seen from high above.
This was the Qingshui River, the biggest river in Nanjiang of the Yuan Continent. The rainfall had been abundant for this river. As one goes up from the estuary to the source, most of it were high mountains and marshlands, where dragons and snakes appeared often.
The most famous sect at the Qingshui River was the Qingjiang Sword Sect. Huang Longzi reached this river and remembered that the Qingjiang Sword Sect had gone to Qing Xuan. It was truly abominable.
He was injured by the Xuantong Demon Queen's Devilry of Dark Skies. There was a lump of evil Qi condensed on his injuries that would not dissipate for a long time. He could not resolve the Qi of devilry during these few days.
Under the animosity of his mind, a malignancy welled up in him. At the thought of the Qingjiang Sword Sect, he had the urge to approach them to fight and get some spiritual medicine, while also punishing the Qingshui Sword Sect. This also had to do with his cultivation of the Dragon Transformation Incantation. The savage part of the real dragon was aroused by the injuries so it was natural for him to want to abreact.
With this notion in mind, Huang Longzi was about to come up with a cumulus cloud to walk through the cloud roads and get to the Qingshui Sword sect. Suddenly, at this moment, there was a single boat that came from in front. It was flowing down from the upstream of the river.
Originally, it was because of the fact that the Qingshui River was wide so there were a lot of seafaring visitors who would use this to enter Nanjiang and it was nothing strange for them to trade with the barbarians. However, to dare to crossover such a wide river by a single boat without being afraid of capsizing, only those who bore supernatural powers would able to do so. Another bigger possibility was a cultivator.
As it was still far away, Huang Longzi did not use any mana and his gazing dragon eyes only saw a silhouette. With his mana conjured up, his dragon eyes bright and piercing, he immediately observed that it was a young person on the single boat. That person was clad in white and his clean robes fluttered. He was noble and graceful, like a lying celestial riding the waves.
It was truly an excellent figure.
It was as though the person had seen him and showed him a smile. Suddenly, the single boat grazed pass area of unknown miles like a flying arrow and it reached an area nearby him.
And then, the single boat suddenly came to a stable halt on the flowing water, instead of flowing according to the current.
The man in white freely and easily paid his respect to make an obeisance and it was exactly the formality when people from the same Guangqing Sect would meet. Simultaneously, the Qi of Dao that was shown to him was a Guangqing technique. Huang Longzi's mind had doubts. It had been years since he last returned to the mountain gate when did the sect had such a remarkable disciple?
While he was pondering, he heard the man in white said, ”Qingwei greets Senior Apprentice-Brother Huang Longzi.”
This so-called Qingwei was, of course, Yanxu's Daoist name in Guangqing. Yuming the Honored Celestial had granted him to descend down the mountains to gain experience and temper himself. Naturally, nothing was impossible for him. In five years' time, he had actually secretly taken most control of the actual situation of the Guangqing Celestial Sect. It was only the five immortal Zhenrens that he still did not dare to look into so rashly.
When Huang Longzi heard both the word 'Qingwei', he then remembered that this was the new disciple of the chief Martial Uncle. To be able to have cultivation experience such as this in the span of five years truly surprised him.
Daoist Huanzhen had sent him an air message and the praises would not stop at the mention of 'Qingwei' but never would he have expected this Junior Apprentice-Brother Qingwei to attain cultivation experience to this state of perfection. There was a saying that Chen Jianmei had three years of Chushen and ten years of Ruhua, being the number one prodigy of the world. However, compared to this new Junior Apprentice-Brother Qingwei, who entered Dao at the same time, Qingwei was still very ahead of Chen Jianmei.
At the mention of Chen Jianmei, Huang Longzi still had chills. This fellow's high swordcraft and strong cultivation experience were simply something hard to encounter in his entire life. Even though the Xuantong Demon Queen had injured him but compared to the Chen Jianmei, she was still slightly inferior. When that fellow made his move, 'one man one sword', it was hard to deal with because since it was made without mercy.
