Chapter 301

Chapter 301: When Did Qingyun Sect Become So Powerful?

Although Guiyuan Martial Sect was severely weakened on Yuanwu Mountain, it still had its strong foundation. After all, Guiyuan was once the second sect in the Northern Region, with countless years of accumulation and underlying strength.

Even though Guiyuan Martial Sect had been kicked out of the top ten sects in the Northern Region, its foundation remained, and its strength was still not to be underestimated.

The Gui family still held great power within Guiyuan Martial Sect.

Right now, at the entrance of Hundred Herb Valley, Ling Xian’er faced off against Gui Yuanshan.

Zhao Fan stepped back, and everyone’s gaze towards him changed.

Zhao Fan, with his Qi Refining Realm cultivation, had defeated a Divine Ability Realm martial artist. That was nothing short of a miracle.

No one expected that Zhao Fan’s power could erupt strongly enough to kill a Divine Ability Realm martial artist with a single punch.

He could even take a blow from a Heavenly Martial Realm master without a scratch.

Unbelievable.

Absolutely unbelievable.

Xiao Yang was also pleased with Zhao Fan’s performance.

Zhao Fan was still just his registered disciple.

Xiao Yang was very cautious about taking in disciples.

Zhao Fan was still undergoing his tests.

The advantages of Zhao Fan’s Five Elements Dominant Body were gradually revealing themselves.

Xiao Yang thought to himself that if he could craft a Five Elements Tempering Pill to aid Zhao Fan in perfecting his Five Elements Dominant Body, it would significantly enhance its power.

At this moment, ordinary tempering pills were of no use to Zhao Fan anymore.

Only the Five Elements Tempering Pill could unleash the potential of the Five Elements Dominant Body.

“Master!”

Zhao Fan approached Xiao Yang and bowed.

“Not bad, keep it up!” Xiao Yang patted Zhao Fan on the shoulder.

“Yes, Master!” Zhao Fan replied with a shy smile.

“Junior Brother, you’re asking too much! Your disciple has already killed a Divine Ability Realm expert with one punch! That’s against the heavens!” Liu Qingyun exclaimed in disbelief at Xiao Yang.

“This kid, hmm, remarkable!” Chen Taixu added.

Xiao Yang’s disciple was indeed remarkable, even he had underestimated him.

He initially thought Zhao Fan had a mixed martial body and wouldn’t achieve anything significant, but who knew Zhao Fan would turn out to be this formidable.

He was still in the Qi Refining Realm and could kill a Divine Ability Realm martial artist with one punch.

If he advanced to the Heavenly Martial Realm, wouldn’t he be able to rival a Martial Saint?

“Boom!”

At that moment, a tremendous sound erupted as two powerful Qi fluctuations surged forth; Ling Xian’er had already engaged Gui Yuanshan in battle.

This was a fight between Half Saints.

Ling Xian’er radiated an overwhelming chill of the Negative Yin, enveloped in a faint mist, and the surrounding space seemed on the brink of freezing.

The two soared into the air, moving rapidly through the void.

Xiao Yang looked up into the sky.

The entire spiritual energy of heaven and earth was drawn to the two, wildly converging around them.

This is what it means to be a Half Saint; with a mere thought, one can summon the spiritual energy of an entire region to their aid.

Xiao Yang understood that with sufficient strength, one punch could shatter the heavens, and one kick could demolish the earth.

Having lived another life, his perception of power reached another level.

Liu Qingyun and the others grew tense.

(w)?()

Gui Yuanshan was indeed an old-school Half Saint.

(w)?()

And Ling Xian’er had only recently broken through to Half Saint.

(w)?()

Her combat experience probably couldn’t compare to Gui Yuanshan’s at all.

At this moment, Ling Xian’er pointed her right hand at Gui Yuanshan.

Countless transparent ice blades appeared in front of her, slicing toward Gui Yuanshan.

Each ice blade ripped through the void with a sharp sound.

Gui Yuanshan let out a sinister laugh, making no move, and allowed the numerous ice blades to slash at him.

However, all the ice blades shattered right in front of him, breaking apart into countless ice shards.

“Ha!”

Gui Yuanshan snorted, and a massive black tortoise phantom emerged from him, shattering all the incoming ice blades.

“Buzz!”

The void trembled; the black tortoise roared.

“This…”

Everyone was taken aback, their hearts shaking.

Gui Yuanshan, as an old Half Saint, stirred up quite the commotion with just one move.

“Haha… Ancestor is mighty! You little pests are finished!” Gui Rong laughed loudly.

The disciples of Guiyuan Martial Sect were all overjoyed.

No doubt about it, the strength of their ancestor was undeniable.

Gui Yuanshan was indeed the most likely to become a Saint within Guiyuan Martial Sect.

“My disciple might be in trouble,” Liu Qingyun said with worry.

He could sense just how extraordinarily powerful Gui Yuanshan’s burst of strength was.

In front of that power, he felt as small as an ant.

“I wouldn’t be so sure!” Xiao Yang said, looking at the two figures in the sky with calmness.

“Huh?”

Liu Qingyun was both surprised and delighted. Could Ling Xian’er possibly defeat Gui Yuanshan?

Chen Taixu’s expression turned serious.

Nangong Hui watched Gui Yuanshan in the sky, thinking he was quite a formidable opponent, unfortunate that Ling Xian’er got the head start.

“Qingyun Sword Technique, rise with the winds!” Ling Xian’er unleashed her sword.

A chilling sword light shot out from her, and in the void, countless mists materialized.

The sword light was hidden within the mist, piercing toward Gui Yuanshan.

The sword qi was like the wind, penetrating all.

“Is that really the Qingyang Sword Technique?” Gui Yuanshan’s heart sank.

This girl actually obtained the true legacy of Qingyun Sect?

How could this be possible?

Everyone thought that Qingyun Sect’s inheritance had been severed hundreds of years ago when the Demon Sect breached their gate.

It seemed that Qingyun Sect’s legacy had never truly been cut off.

At this point, Gui Yuanshan was already enveloped by the mist.

Sounds of metal clashing rang from within the mist.

“Guiyuan Divine Fist!”

Gui Yuanshan shouted angrily as a giant fist shadow erupted from the mist, its powerful force scattering the mists.

The fist force obliterated all before it, directly striking at Ling Xian’er’s flying sword, which was sent flying, then barreled toward Ling Xian’er.

“Qingyun Turning Heaven Hand!”

Ling Xian’er flipped her right hand, and an overwhelming force seemed poised to flip the entire world upside down.

The giant fist shadow that was headed toward her was redirected downwards, crashing directly toward the crowd of Guiyuan Martial Sect’s disciples below.

“What? (w)?()”

The disciples outside of the entrance to the valley were instantly terrified.

Even Gui Rong, a Heavenly Martial Realm master, was left dumbstruck by the massive fist shadow descending from above.

This was a strike from a Half Saint.

Who could block a Half Saint’s blow?

They were doomed.

Xiao Yang couldn’t help but chuckle at the sight.

Ling Xian’er’s hard work during this time has truly paid off.

Having gained the Qingyun Sect’s heritage in the Qingyun Secret Realm, Ling Xian’er was progressing rapidly.

Liu Qingyun and the others felt an exhilarating mix of shock and joy.

This was the martial talent of Ling Xian’er, who possessed the Negative Yin Sacred Body.

What is a genius?

A genius is someone who can achieve what others cannot.

Ling Xian’er reached a martial realm that others would struggle their entire lives to reach in such a short time.

“Damn it! (w)?() Come and $??$? for new chapters $? complete chapters?(w)?()”

Gui Yuanshan was both astonished and enraged; he fully concentrated to control his fist force as the giant fist shadow changed direction.

“Boom! (w)?()”

The fist shadow struck the ground beside Gui Rong and the others.

Instantly, dust flew, and the ground quaked violently.

The overwhelming fist force sent the disciples of Guiyuan Martial Sect flying, all of them crashing onto the ground, coughing up blood.

Even Gui Rong was sent reeling by the burst of fist force, blood oozing from his mouth and nose.

“Haha, well-deserved! (w)?()”

Liu Qingyun couldn’t help but cackle at the disheveled state of those guys.

But Xiao Yang’s expression turned grave.

He sensed a powerful aura approaching nearby.

The commotion from Ling Xian’er and Gui Yuanshan’s battle had attracted the attention of powerful figures from the surrounding regions.

Many formidable silhouettes had appeared nearby, watching from the sidelines.

“Kill!”

Gui Yuanshan was truly enraged.

He spread his arms, and two beams of knife light appeared in front of him.

The two beams of knife light slashed through the void like cold lightning, rapidly slicing toward Ling Xian’er.

Gui Yuanshan was a blade master.

The two knife lights were incredibly domineering.

The powerful knife qi surged, splitting the virtual space itself.

Ling Xian’er didn’t dare to be careless; she unleashed her flying sword and engaged Gui Yuanshan in a fierce battle using the Qingyun Sword Technique.

For a moment, knife light and sword qi clashed, stunning everyone present.

This was a duel between Half Saints.

Ling Xian’er released an incredibly potent chill of the Negative Yin.

Soon, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

And it wasn’t even winter.

Xiao Yang also felt the bone-chilling cold creeping in.

Ling Xian’er’s Negative Yin chill pervaded everywhere.

Gui Yuanshan was caught squarely in it; frost appeared in his hair, brows, and beard.

He felt as though all his blood qi was about to be frozen solid.

“Negative Yin Sacred Body?”

Gui Yuanshan was furious and amazed.

“With a clang!”

He violently slashed Ling Xian’er back and quickly turned to flee.

“Ancestor…”

The disciples below, including Gui Rong, were unable to believe what they were seeing.

Their ancestor actually abandoned them? (w)?()

He’s escaping on his own?

“Planning to run?”

Ling Xian’er merged with her sword, transforming into a dazzling streak of sword light rushing up.

Gui Yuanshan abruptly turned, slashing his knife lights against the incoming sword light.

In the next moment, (w)?()

his two knife lights shattered in the void.

“What…”

Gui Yuanshan was struck by overwhelming fear.

The sword light that Ling Xian’er had transformed into instantly pierced through his body.

Gui Yuanshan was frozen into an ice sculpture, made of Negative Yin chill, as he plummeted to the ground (w)?().

He shattered into pieces instantly.

A generation of Half Saint was thus annihilated.

“…”

Gui Rong and the disciples of Guiyuan Martial Sect were left dumbstruck.

Their ancestor just died like that?

Ling Xian’er reappeared in the void, her sword form having consumed much of her energy, now appearing somewhat fatigued.

But her gaze was bright and resolute.

This was her first time killing a Half Saint.

Gui Rong and the others, sensing the precarious situation, fled into the valley.

“Humph!”

Ling Xian’er chased them down.

As she passed through, everything instantly froze.

Xiao Yang stepped forward.

Everyone followed closely behind him.

When Xiao Yang and his group entered the valley, they were met with numerous ice sculptures.

They had successfully reclaimed Hundred Herb Valley.

Meanwhile, the other forces occupying Qingyun Sect’s territory were incredulous upon hearing the news.

When did Qingyun Sect become so powerful?
