Chapter 199 Specializing in Curing Fancy and Superficial Things
"Clap clap clap..."
Dong Zhen stood up, clapped, and shouted, "Master Xie, that's enough! Stop fighting! Yang Lingfeng's swordsmanship is far superior to your saber skills. If you want to kill him, you'll have to use magic!"
This is a classic example of fanning the flames.
Xie Chuan's face flushed red, feeling as humiliated as if he had been slapped several times. He suddenly roared, "Die!"
With a sweep of the longsword, a patch of shimmering water instantly appeared.
The water rapidly expanded into a wave, forming the shape of a knife, and rushed towards Zhuo Yang.
"Clear Wave Sword Technique!"
A gasp of surprise rang out from the crowd.
Zhuo Yang raised an eyebrow, his ugly face full of disdain.
"My swordsmanship is the perfect counter to all sorts of fancy tricks!"
A cold laugh echoed throughout the conference hall. Zhuo Yang flicked his longsword, raised it high above his head with both hands, and then fiercely slashed at the large blade made of water.
With a deafening roar, Zhuo Yang's figure was obscured by the dissipating water mist.
Lu Qianqian's heart pounded as she watched, and she couldn't help but take a step forward, but was pulled back by Chen Guo beside her.
"Sister Lu, what's wrong?" Chen Guo almost called out "Pavilion Master," but she quickly corrected herself.
Lu Qianqian was startled and shook her head, saying, "It's nothing!"
He secretly resented, "Why is this Pavilion Master in such a panic?"
At this moment, the mist dissipated, revealing Zhuo Yang's figure holding a sword.
The entire audience erupted in uproar, and almost everyone wore a look of surprise.
How could a mere cultivator in the Heartbeat stage possibly break through the resentful attack of a Golden Core stage expert?
Xie Chuan was even more surprised, his beard trembling. "You are... a Golden Core cultivator?"
Zhuo Yang waved his hand to brush off the few water droplets on his body and laughed loudly: "So this is what a Golden Core stage expert is like. My master even told me not to fight against Golden Core stage experts. He must be out of his mind!"
Yang Lingfeng's persona is arrogant, so Zhuo Yang naturally can't let that persona collapse so quickly.
"You're... in the 'heart-fluttering' phase?" Xie Chuan almost ground his teeth to powder.
Judging from the fluctuations of true essence, Yang Lingfeng was only at the Heartbeat stage, or even the mid-stage. So how could he break my Clear Wave Saber Technique with just ordinary sword moves?
The more Xie Chuan couldn't understand, the angrier he became. Without waiting for Zhuo Yang's response, he roared and swung his long sword again.
An invisible surge of true energy gathered, causing surrounding water vapor to accumulate and quickly form a large cloud of mist. The mist condensed, creating a wave-like aura, which then formed a gigantic longsword.
Zhuo Yang brandished his longsword, preparing to meet the enemy.
At this moment, a heavy snort, seemingly capable of shattering heaven and earth, directly shattered Xie Chuan's sword technique.
"Ugh..." Xie Chuan's true energy reversed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot. Although he was not seriously injured, his true energy was disordered, and he felt very uncomfortable.
"Dong Zhen, what do you mean?" He glared angrily at Dong Zhen, who was sitting behind the table.
"It's meaningless!" Dong Zhen looked at him contemptuously, snorting without giving him any face. "If you want to fight, go somewhere where no one is around. The Dragon Court doesn't care about you. Don't interfere with the Dragon Court's treasure hunting team, and don't disturb ordinary people outside either, or I'll personally take care of you!"
Xie Chuan's face immediately contorted with hatred, his arm holding the knife trembling as he clearly forced himself to endure it.
Finally, he suppressed his anger, sheathed his long sword, stared at Zhuo Yang and sneered, "Yang Lingfeng, Long Ting is speaking up for you, so I'll give Long Ting face and spare your life for now. But the first thing I'll do once we enter the ancient tomb is kill you!"
Zhuo Yang shrugged and said indifferently, "Whatever. Anyway, I've already seen the cultivation level of the Golden Core stage. It's nothing special!"
Xie Chuan was furious again and couldn't hold back. He had several disciples shove the two dead people into storage treasures, and then the group of seven retreated to the side to wait.
Among these seven people is Mao Xiaohui.
"Miss Mao, don't worry!" Kong Xinglan, having failed to put on a show of bravado, forced a fake smile. "Once we get into the ancient tomb, that ugly guy is doomed!"
"Yes, we must kill that ugly bastard!" Mao Xiaohui patted her chest, glanced at Zhuo Yang, and then acted as if she was frightened.
The scene returned to calm. Zhuo Yang sheathed his longsword, adopted an arrogant demeanor, and walked to the surface of the Boundless Cold Stone, unleashing a palm strike.
A blast of air erupted, and the Boundless Cold Stone split in two on the spot, producing a deafening roar.
Then the entire room fell silent, except for the gurgling sound of someone secretly swallowing their saliva.
This guy's cultivation level is only at the Heartbeat stage, yet he's so strong?
"What powerful palm strike!"
Wang Shanlong stepped forward and exclaimed, "Brother Yang, I see you're all alone. Why don't you join the Wang family and we can search for treasure together?"
Zhuo Yang glanced over and realized that Wang Shanlong was actually trying to win him over?
Zhuo Yang had a very clear understanding of who Wang Shanlong was. He used every means to suppress his enemies, and he did so for more than a decade without ever giving up until he achieved his goal.
Such a cunning old fox trying to win you over has no pure motives!
Zhuo Yang pretended to ponder, but his gaze swept over Lü Qianqian in the crowd. Then he arrogantly said, "Treasures like the Heavenly Fire Lotus belong to the capable. I always do things alone and am too lazy to team up with others!"
He walked off to register on his own, seemingly ignoring everyone else.
Wang Shanlong wasn't annoyed. He smiled gracefully and returned to his two companions.
Dong Zhen stared intently at Zhuo Yang for a while, then snorted coldly: "Who else wants to come up for the trial? Hurry up, we don't have much time. I don't want the people from the Dark Dharma Assembly to take away the Heavenly Flower Fire Lotus!"
When the head of Longting's northern branch spoke, people immediately echoed his words.
One by one, the cultivators stepped forward to test the broken, cold stone.
An old woman led four beautiful young women dressed in red forward, and they all passed through. Then, two middle-aged men in white robes with black patterns, accompanied by six disciples, also passed through; they were actually from the Mo Yun Sword Sect.
Chen Guo passed the test just like Cui Yi. Lü Qianqian went on stage alone, glanced at Zhuo Yang intentionally or unintentionally, and then easily passed the test.
The last one to pass was an old man dressed in black training clothes. His true essence fluctuations were stable at the late Golden Core stage, on par with Wang Shanlong.
At this point, there are eleven Golden Core stage experts who have passed the test, enough to destroy the army of a small country!
"There are so many experts in China!" Zhuo Yang sneered inwardly. "The Wang family is even more powerful, with three Golden Core cultivators, plus two Golden Core cultivators from the Mo Yun Sword Sect, making a total of five Golden Core experts!"
The people from Qingtao Hall are, needless to say, enemies, while Zhuo Yang's side only has Lü Qianqian, Chen Guo, and Cui Yi, four people in total, one less than the other side.
The old woman and old man were of unknown allegiance, and there were no Golden Core stage experts among the other cultivators, so they could be disregarded.
There are also cultivators from the Dark Dharma Assembly lurking in the shadows...
The situation is very unfavorable for Zhuo Yang.
"We can leave the treasure hunt for last. Our primary target for entering this ancient tomb is Wang Shanlong!" Zhuo Yang pondered for a while, then looked at Wang Shanlong.
Wang Shanlong was also looking at him.
The two exchanged a glance. Zhuo Yang shrugged indifferently, while Wang Shanlong smiled elegantly, each lost in their own thoughts…
