Chapter 443: One trick to conquer the world
Qin Ziling walked several miles out of Fulao Pass, stopped, stood facing the wind, and looked at the people from Tianyan Sect whose figures became clearer and clearer.
Lai Yinuan, Qin Jianmei and Ruan Qiang did not stop. They nodded slightly to Qin Ziling and continued to greet Huangfu Ningxue and others.
In a blink of an eye, the two sides faced each other.
Lai Yi Nuan, Qin Jianmei and Ruan Qiang stopped about 30 to 50 meters away, bowed to Shang Pu, Huangfu Ningxue and Mei Tianxing and said, "Greetings to the two supreme elders and the sect master."
Lai Yinuan did not conceal his magical power when he bowed.
Powerful magic power surged through his body, emitting a powerful aura that caused the void around him to ripple slightly and twist.
The shadow of a golden dragon with bright scales and shining golden light appeared behind him, as if it was about to fly away.
"Lai Yinuan, you actually recovered!" A look of surprise and disbelief appeared on Huangfu Ningxue's cold and elegant face.
"Not only has it recovered, but it's even better than before! Good, good!" Shang Pu nodded, a hint of joy appearing on his bearded and mighty-looking face.
"The two supreme elders have sharp eyes. I have indeed fully recovered and am not far from overcoming the tribulation." Lai Yinuan said, glancing at Jiang Shengyun and Gongsun Yun intentionally or unintentionally.
Jiang Shengyun and Gongsun Yun's faces changed, especially Gongsun Yun's expression was the most complicated. After hesitating for a moment, he stepped forward and bowed to Lai Yinuan, saying, "Congratulations, Senior Brother."
"Forget it, just call me by my name. You are the governor of the Great Qi State, I am not worthy of being called your senior brother!" Lai Yinuan waved his hand without giving him any face at all.
When Gongsun Yun saw that Lai Yinuan did not give him any way out in front of the two supreme elders and the sect leader, his face darkened slightly and he retreated.
"Hmph, you're so arrogant before you even become a Jindan cultivator. When you become a Jindan cultivator, will you even look down on me?" Upon seeing this, Shang Pu's face darkened slightly and he scolded.
"Grand Elder, there is a reason for this matter. It's not because of my senior brother..." Qin Jianmei saw Shang Pu scolding Lai Yinuan, so she stepped forward and said.
"You are Qin Jianmei, right?" Shang Pu interrupted her with his hand before Qin Jianmei finished speaking.
"Yes." Qin Jianmei quickly bowed and replied.
"Your Qin family has produced a good son! Not only did he refuse to obey the supervision, he even killed the crown prince of the Great Qi Kingdom in front of him! As an elder, you did not discipline him and allowed him to do whatever he wanted. Where do you think my Tianyan Sect is?" Shang Pu scolded.
While scolding, a powerful aura burst out from Shang Pu, which made Qin Jianmei break out in cold sweat on her forehead and the circulation of qi, blood and magic power in her body became stagnant.
"He who kills shall be killed! The prince sent troops to exterminate my entire Qin family, so can't I kill him? Is it wrong for me to kill him? According to your logic, if the prince wants to exterminate my entire family, should we all clean our necks for him to chop off? Shang Pu, as the supreme elder of Tianyan Sect, don't you even understand this little bit of righteousness?"
At this moment, a powerful voice rang out between heaven and earth.
"How dare you!" Shang Pu's face changed slightly when he heard that. His black beard spread out and he looked at Qin Ziling with a sharp gaze. He raised his hand and the green dragon coiled around him let out a high-pitched dragon roar and was about to soar into the sky.
"Uncle Master Shang Pu, please calm down." Upon seeing this, Huangfu Ningxue flicked her sleeves, and an invisible magical power descended, slightly suppressing the green dragon that was about to soar into the sky. Then she bowed to the Grand Elder Shang Pu and dissuaded him.
Although Huangfu Ningxue and Shang Pu are both supreme elders now, Shang Pu became famous earlier and is one generation older than Huangfu Ningxue in terms of seniority. Therefore, Huangfu Ningxue sometimes calls him "uncle master" out of respect.
"Hmph!" After all, Huangfu Ningxue was a supreme elder with the same status as Shang Pu, so when he saw her take action, Shang Pu snorted coldly and eventually withdrew.
"Uncle Master Shang Pu, today is the life-and-death battle between Jiang Shengyun and Qin Ziling. After this battle, everything will be settled. There is not much point in arguing about who was right and who was wrong that day." Huangfu Ningxue said.
The beard on Shang Pu's face twitched a few times. He looked at Huangfu Ningxue with some dissatisfaction, then waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I don't bother to care about these things. Shengyun, you and that kid from the Qin family have a life-and-death battle. The sooner the battle is over, the sooner it's over!"
"Yes, Supreme Elder!" Upon hearing this, Jiang Shengyun bowed to Shang Pu, then took a step forward and stood in the air with Qin Ziling at a distance.
Seeing this, everyone stepped back a little.
"Boy, your death has come!" Jiang Shengyun sneered, with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Don't worry, I'm much younger than you, and you will definitely die first!" Qin Ziling said with a smile.
"Wait until I break all your teeth, then I'll see how you can still say this." Jiang Shengyun smiled coldly, made a gesture with his hand and pointed at Qin Ziling. Suddenly, flames rose up around Qin Ziling and surrounded him completely.
At this time the wind started to blow again.
Fire takes advantage of the wind.
The flames instantly burned fiercely and turned into five fire dragons, which formed a five-dragon sea of fire and trapped Qin Ziling in mid-air.
When Qin Ziling saw that Jiang Shengyun had set up a large formation to trap him with just a few moves, he was not panicked. Instead, he showed a hint of interest in his eyes.
This was his first real fight with a Jindan cultivator, and it was also an opportunity for him to hone himself.
"Haha, watch how I destroy your fire dragon!" Qin Ziling laughed loudly and cast some magic spells with his hands. Suddenly, a number of black water dragons coiled around his body and opened their mouths to spray water at the fire waves that were spreading and burning towards him.
Water and fire counteract each other.
The fire waves gradually weakened as they encountered the black water.
"Grand Master! He is actually already the Grand Master!" Gongsun Yun's face suddenly became gloomy and ugly as if water was about to drip from it.
Originally, he was quite confident that Jiang Shengyun could kill Qin Ziling. But now his biggest fear was Lai Yinuan who had recovered to his peak.
As a result, what he never expected was that Qin Ziling's weakness was suddenly improved from a small master to a great master.
His weakness, the Qi training, was instantly broken through to the Great Mystic Master, but what about his martial arts?
Gongsun Yun's heart sank and he had a very uneasy and bad premonition.
"This boy has made rapid progress! He was just a minor master two months ago, and now he is a major master! No wonder he dared to sign a life-and-death battle with Jiang Shengyun two months ago." Huangfu Ningxue's face was filled with surprise and astonishment.
"The power of a Jindan cultivator is not something a Great Mystic Master can match!" Although Shang Pu was a little surprised, he shook his head disapprovingly.
"The Great Mysterious Master is definitely not a match for a Jindan cultivator, but he still has martial arts. Two months ago, his martial arts were able to rival the Great Mysterious Master." Huangfu Ningxue reminded.
"That's not enough! Jindan cultivators are half-immortals, and the Great Mystic Master and Martial Saint are not even close to the word immortal. He can't suddenly become a Martial Immortal or a Human Immortal in just two months! If he becomes a Human Immortal, let alone Jiang Shengyun, even I won't be his opponent!" Shang Pu said.
"It is much more difficult to become a human immortal than to become a golden elixir. It is impossible to do so in just two months! However, his martial arts foundation is extremely strong. If he can break through and become a great martial saint within these two months, combining Taoism and martial arts, it will be very difficult for Jiang Shengyun to kill him." Huangfu Ningxue said.
"This boy is not using martial arts now. He obviously wants to use his magic power to consume Jiang Shengyun's magic power. How short-sighted and stupid is this? The magic power of a Jindan cultivator is so powerful and pure, how can it be consumed by a Xuan Master? If he had used both methods at the beginning and fought with his life, he might have had a chance to seriously injure Jiang Shengyun. He is not as strong as Jiang Shengyun, and he has dispersed his strength, which just allows Jiang Shengyun to defeat him one by one in an orderly manner. His defeat is already inevitable." Shang Pu said disapprovingly.
Huangfu Ningxue fell silent upon hearing this, obviously agreeing with Shang Pu's statement.
Gongsun Yun, whose face was originally as gloomy as water, finally softened after hearing this.
While Huangfu Ningxue and Shang Pu were talking, the battle situation over there seemed to be completely consistent with Shang Pu's description .
Jiang Shengyun was surprised at first, but soon calmed down.
At this moment, he was standing facing the wind with a leisurely look on his face, driving the fire dragon formation to deal with Qin Ziling's black dragon.
Anyway, he is a Jindan cultivator with powerful and endless magic power. He can also set up a large formation at will and mobilize more firepower from heaven and earth. Naturally, he is not afraid of wasting time with Qin Ziling.
Now he was afraid that Qin Ziling would fight him to the death.
In this case, even if he is a Jindan cultivator, he will probably be injured.
Jiang Shengyun fought a war of attrition with Qin Ziling in a leisurely manner. Qin Ziling seemed to be a newborn calf who was not afraid of a tiger. He also fought a war of attrition with him in a leisurely manner, constantly urging black dragons to put out the fire and fighting with the fire dragon.
Huangfu Ningxue and Mei Tianxing looked at this scene with subtle and complicated expressions.
Morally speaking, they should hope that Qin Ziling wins.
But Jiang Shengyun is a disciple of Tianyan Sect and a Jindan cultivator. From the sect's perspective, they should hope that Jiang Shengyun will win.
The expressions of Lai Yinuan, Qin Jianmei and Ruan Qiang were also somewhat subtle and complicated.
On the surface, Qin Ziling's current tactics were indeed stupid and short-sighted as Shang Pu said, and they couldn't help but feel worried after seeing it, but at the same time, they all knew that Qin Ziling was a very cunning guy, who planned everything before making decisions, and had no plans left out, so it was impossible for him to not see this simple truth.
Among the crowd, only Gongsun Yun and Shang Pu showed joy on their faces.
Especially Gongsun Yun's heart was finally at ease.
Now that Lai Yinuan has recovered to his peak, if Qin Ziling kills Jiang Shengyun again, not only will he lose his position as the chief supervisor of the Great Qi State, but his status within the sect will also plummet.
In the distance, on the tower, Jian Bailou watched from afar as Qin Ziling and Jiang Shengyun were engaged in a war of attrition. He couldn't help but curl his lips and said to Liu Xiaoqiang beside him: "Xiaoqiang, why doesn't your master change his tactics? He keeps using the same tactic over and over again. How boring!"
"Grand Elder, don't you know that there is a saying that goes 'One trick is enough to conquer the world'?" Liu Xiaoqiang scratched his head and asked.
"Ahem!" Jian Bailou was immediately choked by Liu Xiaoqiang's words, and Xia Yan beside him could not help laughing.
"Xia Yan, aren't you worried about Ziling at all?" Qin Zitang, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but ask when he saw this.
