Chapter 496: Chapter 444 Honghu Totem, Sword Art Divine Might
Jiang Country, also known as Hong Country, is named after its national totem, a swan goose bird.
The so-called five symbols of a phoenix; the red one is the phoenix; the yellow one is the swan; the blue one is the luan; the purple one is the peacock, and the white one is the swan goose.
As Ying Zhong’s wings flapped, wind and fire gathered, imbuing his body with a radiant glow as dazzling as a long rainbow piercing the sun, descending from the sky. An illusion of a swan goose appeared, with the wind and fire dancing around it, emitting dazzling lights and charging straight towards Pei Xuanjing.
Pei Xuanjing’s face turned cold, a mighty aura surged towards the sky, the celestial phenomena above his head changed, his surroundings underwent the Four Seasons Transformation, and mist filled the air.
He slowly raised both hands, cupping them into a palm. Countless thunderbolts gathered in his palms, emitting a terrifying aura. The thunder in the palm of his hand turned into two purple-green thunder dragons, issuing a earth-shaking dragon roar sound, inducing wind and thunder to accompany, the momentum was awe-inspiring.
His figure stood tall, his gaze observed all around, the changing wind and clouds around him added an air of mysterious dignity to him, his hair was fluttering, as if he were a god-devil.
Roar!
In an instant, he fiercely slapped out with both palms, and countless thunderbolts transformed into two purple-green thunder dragons screaming out, issuing an earth-shaking dragon roar sound, inducing wind and thunder to accompany with an awe-inspiring momentum.
The purple-green thunder dragons roared towards the sky, setting off ceaseless thunder, dashing up from below to the high sky, creating shockwaves wherever it passed, carrying indomitable aura that seemingly wanted to obliterate everything in its path.
The places where the two purple-green thunder dragons passed caused the space to vibrate, and countless noises of Qi explosion continued endlessly, leaving behind countless afterimages and warped space.
Bang!
The swan goose illusion made of wind and fire collided with the purple-green thunder dragons, and the resulting power made the Heaven and Earth tremble.
However, this swan goose illusion seemed to be a tad stronger, its long beak and sharp claws tore the purple-green thunder dragons to pieces, turning them into countless thunder lights that faded and disappeared. Then, it aimed its claws at Pei Xuanjing, seemingly wanting to crush him to pieces.
“What a pity, the Shenxiao Thunder Palm can’t satisfy my needs anymore,” Pei Xuanjing sighed in his heart.
His defeat was not surprising. After all, the Shenxiao Thunder Palm was merely an exceptional martial art. Even though Pei Xuanjing had been continuously enhancing it over the years, it was still not a top-grade martial art among superior martial arts.
In the past, Pei Xuanjing could conceal the shortcomings of this skill with his extraordinary strength. Now, when facing a strong opponent of the same realm, its flaws were exposed.
If this skill could not be further enhanced, then the outcome would be the same as his often-used Suppressing Peak Palm, which he gradually stopped using and put out of his mind.
Looking at the incoming swan goose illusion, Pei Xuanjing faintly smiled, and smashed it into nothing with a punch, scattering it in front of his eyes.
“Taoist Friend!” Qingxu Taoist shouted, witnessing the scene.
He wanted to lend Pei Xuanjing his Zhenwu Sword, a divine weapon made by the Ten Thousand-Forged, to compensate for what Pei Xuanjing lacked.
After all, the silver spear that Ying Zhong was currently holding seemed extraordinary. If Pei Xuanjing were to go into a hand-to-hand combat with him unarmed, he seemed to be at a disadvantage.
“No need!” Pei Xuanjing shook his head, rejecting his offer.
Even if it was the Three and Five Male and Female Evil-slaying Swords, the Zhenwu Sword didn’t suit him. Just like the former Seven Killing Sword in his hand, it could not bring out his full strength and would be a hindrance instead.
He slowly extended his slender, white right hand. Primordial Qi gathered in his palm and transformed it into a Qi Sword. In an instant, the colours of blue, red, yellow, white, black, and purple covered it.
Even though it was a Qi weapon condensed from Primordial Qi, it still emitted a terrifying aura. The sharpness caused the air to ripple and be cut continuously.
With Pei Xuanjing’s current strength, the weapon condensed by this method of condensing Qi into weapons already possesses a terrifying power, which is no less than many Ten Thousand-Forged Divine Weapons.
However, his actions outraged Ying Zhong, who was watching from a distance.
“Arrogance,” he bellowed angrily, daring to insult me like this!” Ying Zhong shouted angrily and made a move.
As a strong person of the same realm as himself, he did have some respect for Pei Xuanjing. After all, the latter’s ability to cultivate to such a level on this ancestral land was worthy of his respect.
So even when the Taoist intended to lend his sword to Pei Xuanjing earlier, he did not stop it, allowing him to act as he pleased.
He wanted to fight fairly with him, make him concede defeat wholeheartedly, and perhaps even recruit him under his command.
But he never expected this man to be so arrogant. Although the divine weapon in the hands of the Taoist was far inferior to the divine spear in his hands, it was still not comparable to the weapon that the other party condensed.
In Ying Zhong’s view, the other party’s choice to abandon the divine weapon and condense a weapon to deal with him was an act of contempt and insult.
He acted in anger, his long spear shattered the space, touched a point in the sky, picked up all four directions, cutting off mountains and rivers!
At this moment, the wings of light behind Ying Zhong shone even brighter. Under the light, they looked even more holy. Coupled with his current overwhelming momentum, he was like a war god descending to the world, and his terrifying aura soared.
In the dazzling light, a cold gleam like a venomous snake stabbed out, with a fierce killing intent sweeping across the sky.
Pei Xuanjing swung his sword slowly. The moment he swung his sword, his aura changed dramatically. A strong sharpness rose up from his body out of thin air, as if it could pierce the heavens and the earth.
The way he swung his sword was slow, and his sword moves were simple, but the aura on his body kept rising. Shenxiao Origin Qi filled the area. Green, red, yellow, white, black, and purple filled the sky, dyeing the surrounding area for miles, as if the entire sky of Tiandu was enveloped in these six colors.
Although it was still daytime, stars suddenly appeared in the sky. The faint starlight fell to the ground, falling onto the Qi Sword in his hand.
Pei Xuanjing’s eyes were full of fighting spirit, the qi sword in his hand was humming violently, and as he swung down his sword, countless starlight shone down and thunder roared.
First style – Nine Luminaries.
With one sword strike, it was as if the Nine Heavens Milky Way was pouring down, rolling and crashing. The surging Shenxiao Origin Qi evoked infinite Heaven and Earth Essence Qi to stir up a huge wave.
The sword light was stern, as if there were sounds of dragons and tigers reverberating through heaven and earth. Many martial artists holding swords felt a slight vibration from the swords in their hands, as if they were about to fly out.
Clang!
The collision of the Qi Sword and the Silver Spear caused two intense waves of energy to surge out like a tide, sweeping over all sides.
The collision of these two men shattered space and caused the essence of heaven and earth to boil over.
The numerous spectators felt as though there was a loud explosion in their ears, and the blinding light caused their eyes to sting.
The Spirit Realm powerhouses had to temporarily avoid the sharp edges. If it were not for the timely intervention of people like Zhu Houji, I am afraid that some martial artists with insufficient strength would have their eardrums burst and lose their sight.
Pei Xuanjing was standing in the void, the qi sword in his hand radiating brilliant light. Ying Zhong, on the other hand, had his hands numbed by the terrifying force, almost letting go of the silver spear.
He shouted loudly, brandishing his spear once again.
