Chapter 109: The Wrath of the Saintess of the Purple Manor, A Shocking Cultivation Body
Seeing the situation developing as he had anticipated, Jiang Bufan smiled slightly and immediately drew two circles in the center of the palace.
“This competition is merely for sparring, so we won’t use weapons.”
“Exiting the circle means losing. Do the two heavenly prodigies have any objections?”
“No!”
The two women replied crisply, then stepped into the circles drawn by Jiang Bufan.
The circles were quite small, only allowing enough space for them to stand, and any larger movements would cause them to step outside the boundaries.
Additionally, Jiang Bufan had stated beforehand that weapons were off-limits.
In this situation, it was obvious that he wanted the prodigies to test their own paths.
Facing the inheritor of the Seventy-two Smoke Signals, Ziling calmed down.
Although she wanted to crush Chen Changsheng into pieces, she would not let her emotions control her in the face of an enemy.
“Buzz!”
Ziling formed a technique with her hands, and an apparition of a blue ocean and clear sky appeared behind her.
Seeing this, Sun Huaiyu scoffed and slowly closed her eyes.
“Whoosh!”
The same oceanic apparition appeared before the audience, but Sun Huaiyu’s image was golden.
Moreover, in the center of that ocean, a blue lotus stood tall.
Upon witnessing the manifestations from the two heavenly prodigies, the many powerful beings watching in the seats straightened up.
In terms of strength, they were absolutely stronger than anyone present.
However, regarding the evolution of techniques, they had to acknowledge that they weren’t necessarily superior to these prodigies, even though some of the prodigies were taught by them.
The evolution of techniques emphasizes comprehension, opportunity, and the sudden emergence of inspiration.
Sometimes, the new generation of prodigies can achieve miraculous advancements.
“Whoosh!”
Ziling’s blue ocean and clear sky apparition began to churn violently, and the two different colored oceans collided fiercely.
As both exerted their full strength, the onlookers were greatly impressed.
Both had opened new paths in their cultivation.
The Saintess of the Purple Manor made her spiritual power the “sea” and her spiritual sense the “sky,” integrating heaven and earth into a perfect whole.
To create such a cultivation body is enough to earn her the title of a genius.
If the Saintess of the Purple Manor were to encounter others, even if she couldn’t achieve complete victory, she would at least be in an invincible position.
But unfortunately, she had encountered Sun Huaiyu; she faced the cultivation body created in collaboration with Chen Changsheng and A-Li.
“Boom!”
The two great apparitions violently crashed into each other, with Ziling’s “Blue Ocean and Clear Sky” suddenly wavering, even showing signs of separation.
In contrast, Sun Huaiyu’s “Sea of Suffering” was turbulent but still as steady as a mountain.
“Ha!”
With a shout, Ziling, who was forming the technique, emitted a dazzling radiance from her veins.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng, sitting nearby, couldn’t help but sit up straighter.
The cultivation body of the Saintess of the Purple Manor was based on the eight extraordinary meridians and twelve regular meridians of the human body; although it was generally inferior to the “physical body,” there remained many unique aspects in the operation of the meridians.
As the technique was fully activated, the vast blue ocean and clear sky began to shrink, ultimately transforming into another “Ziling.”
The manifestation of “Ziling,” emerging from the apparition, immediately flew towards Sun Huaiyu’s Sea of Suffering.
She attempted to pierce through the entire golden ocean using her strength alone.
“Whoosh!”
The massive golden ocean was instantly shattered by Ziling, and a slight trace of bl**d dripped from the corner of Sun Huaiyu’s mouth.
Sun Huaiyu had only acclimated to her new cultivation body for less than a month.
In terms of stability, she was far inferior to Ziling.
However, at that moment, as Ziling relentlessly attacked the golden ocean, the blue lotus suddenly underwent a transformation.
The once-closed blue lotus gradually blossomed, revealing a figure sitting upright within.
Seeing this scene, Chen Changsheng, who had been slightly worried, was completely reassured.
Having reached the True Self Realm, this battle was already won for the girl.
“Bang!”
The somewhat ethereal Ziling was sent flying out of the circle by the punch from the blossomed Sun Huaiyu.
Then, an unforgettable moment for everyone occurred.
The “Sun Huaiyu” within the apparition actually began to step out.
“Swipe!”
Jiang Bufan, sitting in a high position, stood up excitedly, as Sun Huaiyu’s actions completely overturned common sense in the cultivation world.
Whether it was the soon-to-be-eliminated golden physical body or the various new bodies under evolution, all cultivation bodies generally followed a rule: the source of spiritual sense cannot be used for combat.
Spiritual sense arises from the souls of living beings, which are inherently fragile and cannot withstand even the slightest harm.
Therefore, no one would use their spiritual sense source to fight.
The Saintess of the Purple Manor had historically established a way to fight with spiritual sense in her apparition, which was already groundbreaking.
But now, Sun Huaiyu had allowed her spiritual sense to step out of her apparition. This was simply startling.
“Step! Step! Step!”
Facing the astonished gazes of everyone, the True Self “Sun Huaiyu” smiled proudly and slowly walked toward the injured Ziling.
“Oh no!”
“It seems you are about to lose. I wonder when the Saintess plans to fulfill the bet!”
Looking at the slowly advancing “Sun Huaiyu” and then at her own physical body leisurely eating Spirit Fruits in the circle, Ziling’s eyes were filled with disbelief.
“Impossible, I don’t believe your spiritual sense can fight outside of your body.”
“You are bluffing!”
“Really?”
“If I’m bluffing, then what is this?”
As the words fell, Sun Huaiyu flashed behind Ziling, raising her right hand high.
“Smack!”
Ziling’s rear was harshly slapped by “Sun Huaiyu.”
The intense pain made Ziling’s body tremble slightly.
While she could withstand physical pain, the agony that struck from deep within her soul was unbearable.
The “Sun Huaiyu” before her was indeed just spiritual sense, and this spiritual sense could utilize spiritual power just like her physical body.
Attacked, Ziling instinctively fought back.
Immediately, “Sun Huaiyu” engaged in combat with Ziling.
As the exchanges increased, the shock in Ziling’s heart escalated.
Able to mobilize spiritual power and cast techniques, this “Sun Huaiyu” before her bore no difference from her physical embodiment.
In fact, in some respects, this “Sun Huaiyu” seemed even stronger than the real one.
“Bang!”
Injured and distracted, Ziling was quickly forced out of the circle by “Sun Huaiyu.”
Having won the match, the True Self “Sun Huaiyu” threw Ziling a provoking glance and then returned to her apparition.
As the apparition dissipated, the real Sun Huaiyu joyfully approached Chen Changsheng to take credit.
“Young Master, I defeated that little girl! Am I impressive or what?”
“Just so-so, nothing special.”
“You’re so annoying, can’t you praise me a little?”
The echo of their voices reverberated in the palace, while the others looked towards the smiling Chen Changsheng.
Outsiders enjoyed the spectacle, while insiders recognized the intricacies.
The strength of this cultivation body was evident to all, but beyond that, everyone also understood one thing.
That is, Sun Huaiyu had not yet fully mastered it, so she couldn’t completely embody the profound grace of this cultivation body.
If Sun Huaiyu hadn’t fully mastered it, then what about this Chen Changsheng, whom Sun Huaiyu called “Young Master”?
During their time at the Kunlun Stone Workshop, Sun Huaiyu’s cultivation pathway was entirely different from now.
But after a period of Chen Changsheng’s disappearance, Sun Huaiyu had suddenly begun to possess such incredible cultivation techniques.
Anyone who claimed there was no relationship to Chen Changsheng in this matter would be deemed utterly unconvincing!
