Chapter 544 - 212: Ye Henshui: It wasn’t practiced like this before! Chen Mo’s new technique!_2
Chen Mo took a deep breath, his gaze slightly subdued.
Indeed, the gap between the Heavenly Human Realm and the Transcend Mortality Realm is not only about the amount of True Yuan or Primordial Qi, but also about battle awareness, the intensity of Divine Sense, Divine Skills, understanding of the Dao... it’s a multidimensional and comprehensive crushing!
Even if Ji Lianxing suppresses her realm to the Fourth Rank, she’s absolutely not someone a general Transcendent Warrior can provoke.
But the problem is...
He’s not an ordinary Transcendent Warrior either!
The purple-gold brilliance in Chen Mo’s eyes grew more intense, penetrating through the layers of mist, capturing that figure resembling a Mirror Flower Water Moon.
"Found you!"
Whoosh—
The Gang wind howled, the True Yuan condensed into a giant hand which fiercely slapped down!
However, that figure did not dodge, seemingly oblivious, directly caught by the True Essence Giant Palm!
Retracting the giant hand, taking a closer look, Chen Mo’s pupils suddenly contracted, only to see that figure rapidly deflate like a leaking balloon, eventually turning into a paper doll that gently fell.
At the same time, dozens of figures emerged from the mist, indistinct and unclear.
The mixed voices sounded eerie:
"Is this all you’ve got? How boring."
"So much nonsense."
Chen Mo raised his hand with a light wave, silver specks of light scattered out, attaching to the shadows.
In the next moment—
Bang!
Fierce flames burst forth, surging like violent waves, engulfing all shadows!
The temperature in the bathhouse rose rapidly, the air filled with hazy steam.
Watching the flames grow increasingly fierce, that delicate hand reached out again, and the blue halo descended like a suspended waterfall, instantly quelling the blaze!
However, the fire did not extinguish, instead, as if possessing intelligence, it gathered in mid-air, forming a silver spear.
Chen Mo reached out and grasped the spear, infusing it with the Dragon Devouring Star Power, as the silver flame waves entwined with the blue Gang Qi, transforming into a dragon shape winding around the spear, exuding an unyielding sharp aura!
Swish—
He twisted his waist, sending the spear forward, unhurried.
Like a hot knife through butter, it easily penetrated the blue aura, heading toward the delicate hand.
Bang!
The moment the spear tip contacted the delicate hand, an invisible Gang wind erupted, accompanied by terrifying dragon roars!
The entire room shook violently, as if caught in an earthquake!
"Impressive power, what spear technique is this?" Ji Lianxing’s fingertips were wrapped in blue light, firmly holding the spear tip, still having the leisure to chat.
"Gang Qi soaring to the heavens, Flood Dragon encircling, this spear is called the Gang Jiao, does Sect Master Ji like it?" Chen Mo said coolly.
Ji Lianxing: ?
The silver spear and jade hand were locked in a stalemate, unable to advance.
At this moment, Chen Mo flicked his wrist, and the silver spear exploded, transforming into a sky-full of silver light.
"Oh, doing it again?"
Just when Ji Lianxing thought he was about to repeat the same trick, she suddenly felt a sense of danger, without any hesitation, quickly retreating.
Only to see intricate patterns emerge on Chen Mo’s palm, as purple Thunder Juice surged forth!
Simultaneously, the silver specks of light erupted, thunder and flame splattered, filling the entire bathhouse, creating a hellish scene of lightning and fire intertwining!
Whoosh—
The thick fog was driven away by the thunderfire, and Ji Lianxing’s figure emerged.
Although she was unharmed, the hem of her robe was short by a section, revealing fair and plump calves, with a faintly charred scent.
"This move is called Burning Beauty, how does Sect Master Ji find it?" Chen Mo chuckled softly.
"..."
Ji Lianxing frowned deeply, eyes filled with astonishment and doubt, "Beidou Gang Pattern, Purple Cloud Thunder Technique, this is authentic Daoist Divine Skills, how can you wield them?"
Back at the Southern Border facing the Blood Demon, Chen Mo was still a Martial Artist, and now he’s actually mastered Daoist and Martial Dual Cultivation?
Not only is the momentum and power astonishing, but the control is also precise, even in such a large-scale thunderfire, he managed to deliberately avoid Gu Manzhi and Ye Henshui, not harming them at all...
In just over a month, has his strength really improved so dramatically?!
"Daoist and Martial cannot be cultivated together, being able to wield Daoist Divine Skills implies that apart from True Yuan, there’s also incredibly formidable Primordial Qi within Chen Mo... how is this possible?!"
"And besides Tianshu Pavilion, which other Daoist sect can use such pure and orthodox Thunder Techniques?"
"Could it be that the Daoist Venerable taught him?"
Thinking of what Chen Mo previously said to Gu Manzhi, Ji Lianxing couldn’t help but twitch her throat, "Could he not be lying? Does he really have... that kind of relationship with the Daoist Venerable?! That’s simply outrageous!"
With lightning wrapped around his fingertips, Chen Mo chuckled softly and said, "Is this all you’ve got? Quite boring indeed."
Returning Ji Lianxing’s earlier mockery word for word.
Ji Lianxing heard this, her eyes turned cold, a bronze ancient scroll appeared between her brows, "Do you think mastering a Thunder Technique gives you the right to provoke me? Overestimating oneself, a laughable act."
Bang!
The ancient scroll unfolded, and beams of azure light shot forth!
Chen Mo’s figure swiftly darted, but the light pillar clung like a bone-attached maggot, utterly inescapable.
Until he was forced into the bathroom corner, with no way to avoid it, and was about to be pierced through by the beam... he raised his hand and waved, wisps of cyan smoke swirled, quickly forming an ancient cyan mirror in front of him.
The light pillar struck the mirror surface, causing layers of ripples.
Only lasting three breaths, the mirror shattered with a bang, but it weakened the light pillar considerably, and also gave Chen Mo a breather.
Jade-colored scale armor covered his chest, forcibly taking the blow.
Jade scales also spread on his right hand, transforming into a three-foot sharp blade, he spun and stepped, drawing a mysterious arc!
Dragon Shocking Slash!
"Roar!"
The unparalleled blade aura seemed to tear through space, slashing straight at Ji Lianxing’s throat!
However, Ji Lianxing stood there dazedly, as if lost in thought, even forgetting to dodge.
Clang!
The blade edge struck her neck, blocked by a protective azure light, emitting the sound of metal clashing, and the blade aura stung her skin.
Ji Lianxing, however, couldn’t care less, incredulously staring at Chen Mo, exclaiming:
"That move just now was... the Green Jade Mirror? How can you use the Green Jade Scripture?!"
Moreover, from the proficiency level of this technique, it should be nearing small success!
It suggests he’s been practicing for a while!
"Could it be Manzhi who taught you?"
Ji Lianxing couldn’t think of another reason, gritting her teeth bitterly, she said harshly, "That rebellious disciple, daring to leak sect secrets, this act is akin to betrayal! It seems I must truly cleanse the sect this time!"
"This has nothing to do with her, this cultivation technique was taught to me by Her Majesty the Consort," Chen Mo shook his head and said.
?
"What did you say?"
Ji Lianxing hadn’t reacted yet, but saw Chen Mo pick up the Sumeru Bag from the ground, take out a cyan square seal, and say, "Aside from the cultivation technique, the Empress also gave me this item."
???
Ji Lianxing was stunned again.
"Azure Darkness Seal?!"
"How did it end up in your hands?!"
After the sect’s downfall, this sect treasure was taken by Yu Youhan... She never expected to see it again!
She knew better than anyone the power of the Azure Darkness Seal!
If she could retrieve this item, the Moon Brilliance Sect would have the capital for revival!
With this thought, Ji Lianxing’s breathing quickened, her gaze becoming heated.
Chen Mo saw through her intentions, a smile at the corner of his mouth, and said, "Want to snatch it? Don’t blame me for not warning you, I’m merely borrowing this Azure Darkness Seal temporarily; it still has the Empress’s Dao power attached, if you dare touch it, in an instant, the Empress will sense your presence."
Hearing this, Ji Lianxing immediately calmed down.
Whether what Chen Mo said was true or not, she couldn’t take this risk.
"Since you’ve shown it to me, you must have a plan... Speak, what’s your intention?" Ji Lianxing asked.
Chen Mo smiled and said, "Don’t be tense, I just want to make a deal with you. If you agree, I can ask the Empress to give me this treasure, or even give it to you without concern..."
"A deal?" Ji Lianxing frowned, "What do you want?"
Chen Mo cleared his throat and said bluntly, "I want to exchange it for the freedom of the Saintess Gu and Ye Henshui, from now on they shall have nothing to do with the Moon Brilliance Sect, and you cannot appear before them again."
Ji Lianxing frowned tighter upon hearing this, "That’s it...?"
Such an important treasure, she thought Chen Mo would make an outrageous demand, but it was just for a personal affair?
"Exactly, that’s all it is."
"To you, this item might be very important, but in my eyes, compared to them, it doesn’t matter at all."
Chen Mo weighed the seal in his hand and said, "Perhaps you don’t understand, but as I said earlier, I have no means, only sincerity."
"..."
Ji Lianxing fell into silence for a moment.
The two not far away trembled slightly.
Gu Manzhi clenched her delicate hands tightly, while Ye Henshui’s agate eyes were full of mist.
"Lord..."
"Big bad guy..."
...
...
