Chapter 291 Convinced, in Heart and by Word. (2/2)

Zhang Lingxian was stunned to see Shen Lian. Shen Lian's deep eyes took a glanced at him and he felt a sudden mountain-like weight pressing on his chest, causing him to have trouble speaking.

Bai Suhuan said, ”Since Shen Lian has appeared, let's make things clear. My doomsday is near and I would like to request for the celestial medicine to prolong my life. Gu Caiwei wasn't cooperative and didn't want to tell us about your whereabouts and that lead to what happened today.”

It was perfectly justifiable for cultivators to seek immortality, especially that his doomsday was about to arrive, and it somewhat still made sense for him to do something so out of ordinary like this.

Shen Lian took a glance at Bai Suhuan and then radiated five rays of light - green, yellow, red, black and white; the five colored Qi of essence. The rays of light wrapped around him and that was quite a magical scene.

He flexed a finger and the ray of black Qi of essence dashed towards Zhang Lingxian and his company. Within a spark, it has brushed through Zhang Lingxian, forcing him to fall to the ground. He cast a spell and in no time, everyone around Bai Suhuan collapsed to the grown defenselessly.

With such minimal effort, it could be seen that Shen Lian's skills were at the level of a celestial Buddha.

Shen Lian smiled, ”Doyen Bai, how did you hear about the celestial medicine?”

He took down Zhang Lingxian in front of everyone without saying too much and he went straight to the point when questioning Bai Suhuan.

Bai Suhuan answered with a low voice, ”I found it out by chance.”

”And what do you mean by chance?” Shen Lian probed further.

Bai Suhuan kept a straight face, he did not answer but instead asked another question, ”Looks like you're doubting me and you're not willing to give me the celestial medicine.”

Shen Lian replied, ”That's right, I am indeed suspicious of you.”

Bai Suhuan sighed, ”I am willing to surrender my life savings to trade for the celestial medicine. I don't have any other requests, you have to grant me this.”

Shen Lian said, ”You have to first tell me where you've heard about the celestial medicine and I will consider it. If you don't, I won't hand it over to you.”

Bai Suhuan replied in a low voice, ”We shall let the winner decide then. If you are defeated, you will have to hand over the celestial medicine. I guarantee that I will never give any further trouble to Qing Xuan in the future.”

Shen Lian calmly responded, ”Sure, you will be convinced, in heart and by word.”

He moved slightly and a ray of clear Qi dashed through the door's Dao restriction to reach thousands of feet high up the sky. At this very moment, the clouds were floating by Shen Lian as he sparkled in five different colors. It was indeed eye-catching. At the same time, he howled with a clear voice, stirring the wind and clouds; he was in an imposing form.

Bai Suhuan too did not slack. He released clear Qi from his body and swept through the clouds to produce strong windy clouds above his head. Both of their Qi dynamics were like an intertwined long cable. As the sky darkens, the wind and rain took over.

It was the intertwining of their Qi dynamics that caused a changed in the Yin and Yang forces of the universe and as a result, the heaven and earth responded accordingly.

Bai Suhuan's Code of the Bright Moon had entered the transformation state and was considered one of the top cultivators in the universe. Compared to the likes of Huanzhen, he was not too far inferior from that. Shen Lian's mana may have increased tremendously but it was still not an easy feat to take down his opponent.

As Gu Caiwei lost the external force, she fell on her knees as the eight Qi of Taixu flows and the entire vitality of the Taiyi Peak came together. The Qi of vitality came by like a wave and it shook the disciples surrounding her. The disciples were generally skillful but they were still stunned by the scene, as it was a sign of Huandan.

A pact of disciples silently surrounded Gu Caiwei to protect her. They cannot afford to be distracted by the fight between Shen Lian and Bai Suhuan.
