Chapter 69: Laozi's killing intent rose together, and he didn't even spare himself

  With a loud crash, Luo Zimo's head and torso smashed into the wall, leaving a pool of blood, and slid down, already dead from severe injuries, his arms and legs nowhere to be found.

  As they watched this scene, the people in the field were all shocked and frightened, their faces pale with fear. They had just seen clearly that Tang Jing's fist did not contain any true energy or internal power, but was simply a pure punch, yet it directly crushed and scattered the true energy condensed by Luo Zimo on his Heavenly Finger. His protective true energy was even thinner than a cicada's wing in front of Tang Jing's punch, shattering instantly, his limbs shattered.

  How is this possible!

  The power of the flesh and the power of the true energy, one is external force and the other is internal force. They are the boundaries of the realm, the chasm of strength, and cannot be crossed. Even if the external force is strong, it will not withstand a single blow from the internal force. How can it be that now, in the Mahayana stage, Luo Zimo was struck by Tang Jing's one punch and his limbs were broken!

  Tian Jingang didn't understand, Guan Ming didn't understand, and Meng Jingtong also didn't understand. Everything that had happened here completely went against their knowledge of cultivation common sense. Even Liu Chengzhu couldn't help but stand up at this moment, his beautiful face full of shock, his eyes shrinking in horror!

  "You... you killed my nephew! I want your life!"

  Lu Tianbao snapped out of his deep fear, his expression instantly ferocious, as if the anger in his heart had dazed him, completely losing his rationality. With a loud shout, the true energy inside his body went crazy, bursting forth, and a green light flashed around his body. Taking a big step forward, his palm formed a knife-like shape, and he charged straight at his opponent. This Lu Tianbao was also a Mahayana cultivator, although he had abandoned his practice for a long time, after all, he had cultivated for decades, and his internal energy was deep and profound.

  "Haha! Each has their own fate in life and death! This is what you guys asked for!"

  At this point, Tang Jing's evil energy was overwhelming, his handsome face was full of arrogance, the corners of his mouth were curled up in a manic smile, his eyes flashed with violence, he let out a disdainful laugh, took a step forward, and with a swift motion, his right arm rose, his five fingers spread apart, his palm facing downwards, like a heavenly king suppressing the earth, he slapped down hard on Luo Tianbao's head!

  Bang!

  Luo Tianbao didn't even hum, his head suddenly sank and smashed to the ground, motionless. Luo Tianbao's head had already become deformed, with a clear five-finger print visible. Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but take in a breath of cold air, feeling their scalp numb and their back drenched in cold sweat.

  For a moment, a bloody aura spread out, and the faces of the surrounding people turned pale, their hearts filled with fear and panic, and they retreated in succession.

  "Daring rogue, Lord Liu of the Willow City is here, how dare you be so presumptuous!"

  A maid stepped forward to scold Tang Qing, but was suddenly stopped by the Lord of Liu City. Tang Qing swept his eyes over her, and the maid felt a heavy breath, as if Mount Tai was pressing down on her. Her slender body trembled, and she instantly collapsed to the ground. The Lord of Liu City's eyes seemed to be flashing with flames, staring fixedly at Tang Qing, but he didn't say a word.

  "It's your turn." Tang Jing pointed at Meng Jingsong with a raised hand!

  Meng Jingtong's face, once as calm as a zombie, could no longer remain tranquil. His eyes flashed with shock and his previous arrogance had vanished, replaced by caution and solemnity. However, his voice remained icy cold. "To be able to defeat Luo Zimo with just your physical strength in one move is truly unbelievable! But..." Meng Jingtong didn't finish speaking, instead he raised his hand and unsheathed a long sword that shone with a cold light, extremely sharp. He held the sword, circulating his true energy, making two swift slashes in mid-air.

  His cultivation had already entered the post-heavenly stage, and the post-heavenly stage meant a peak, a state of optimal true energy filling, and most of the meridians and acupoints in his body had been opened. Meng Jing was surprised in her heart, but she was also fearless, knowing that Tang Qing was unusual, he didn't dare to slack off at all, and he poured out all the true energy in his body, swinging what he thought was his strongest move!

  Cross-Residual Sword!

  Hiss! Hiss!

  Two purple sword auras, one horizontal and one vertical, formed a cross and struck towards Tang Qing.

  Meanwhile

  Tang Jing's expression was cold and detached, his eyebrows were lonely and proud, the corners of his mouth curled up in a sinister yet bloodthirsty smile. Without even looking, he raised his hand and grasped at the air, making a soft "popping" sound. The two sharp cross-shaped sword energies were actually caught by him out of thin air!

  This...

  "This is the ultimate sword technique that Meng Jing has mastered after reaching the Later Heaven stage, how can it be caught by him with just his bare hands? Normally, when facing such a sharp sword aura, one would either dodge, flash or break through, but they have never heard of sword aura being caught like this before. Moreover, it still maintains its shape without dispersing, what is going on here? No one knows."

  "No! Impossible!"

  At this moment, Meng Jingtong finally realized how terrifying Tang Qing was, staring at him tightly, unable to believe everything in front of him.

  Tang Qing didn't say a word, his single hand grasped the two sword energies, and with a flick of his wrist, the sharp sword energy shot towards Meng Jingtong. Whoosh! Meng Jingtong's body was cut in half at the waist.

  He's dead.

  And so died Meng Jingtong, one of the Five Heroes of Yongyang City and a direct disciple of Ban Yue Men, who was known for his ruthless nature. He was killed by Tang Qing with just one move, and to make matters worse, it was with his own signature sword technique, the Ten Character Residual Edge Sword.

  Everyone in the field only felt a blank mind, unbelievable. First, it was breaking through the boundary wall with force, breaking through the chasm of power, and then even more so, grasping sword fingers with empty hands, all of which were unheard of.

  Just then, a loud shout suddenly rang out, "Tang Qing! This is Yi City, and also Yongyang City. How dare you kill someone here? Do you still not put the Lord of Liu City in your eyes?" The one who shouted this was none other than Guan Ming. He had originally thought that he had absolute control to trample Tang Qing at will, but he never expected that Tang Qing would be able to break through the boundary wall and use external force to overcome internal force. Not only did he kill Luo Zimo and Luo Tianbao, but also Meng Jingtong was killed by him in one move. He couldn't understand it, and even more so, couldn't accept it.

  If he had only killed Luo Zimo and Luo Tianbao, leaving him with a glimmer of hope, then Tang Qing's single move to kill Meng Jingtong would have completely destroyed Guan Ming's confidence, leaving him with nothing but deep-seated terror.

  "Get out of here! Shut up! You despicable person, it was you who brought this up earlier, each to their own fate!" Tian Jinguang also didn't expect Tang Qing to be so formidable, he too didn't understand, but hearing Guan Ming say these words, his anger flared up and he started scolding!

  Liu Cheng Zhu slowly sat back in his chair, but those beautiful eyes were still staring at Tang Qing. No one knew what this deputy city master of Yong Yang City, the true owner of Yi Shi, was thinking about at this moment. In people's impression, this Liu Cheng Zhu had been very mysterious for over a decade and was extremely skilled at socializing, with good relationships with the three cultivation sects under Yong Yang City and various large families.

  "Master Guan, during the fight, fists and feet were flying everywhere, life and death were left to fate. You yourself said this, if I use this as evidence to punish Tang Qing, how can that be considered fair or just?"

  Although this sentence was said to Guan Ming, Liu Chengzhu's gaze remained fixed on Tang Qing.

  Liu Cheng's attitude was clear, Guan Minglian was like dead ashes, staring at Tang Qing in front of him, his breathing became rapid, and he said, "Tang Qing, you just killed Luo Zimo, the Luo family will not let you go, and Meng Jingtong is a direct disciple of Half Moon Gate, this year has the hope to be promoted to Wujipai, you beheaded him, Half Moon Gate will definitely put you to death, as a fellow door master brother, I can't bear to see you end up like this, hurry up and escape!"

  Tang Qing stood there, like a statue, with an isolated and proud expression. His eyes were filled with a fierce anger comparable to that of the Nine Underworld Emperor's wrath. He stared at Guan Ming, his voice cold and stern yet quiet, saying: "Guan Ming, back in the Tianyao Array Tower, your narrow-mindedness had already wanted to kill me quickly. It's not easy for you to have endured until now. You once helped me, and as for why you helped me, both you and I know. Today, out of gratitude for your help, I will spare your life, kneel down and commit seppuku!"

  Kneel down and commit hara-kiri?

  His face turned deathly pale, not a single hint of blood color remained. Although he was terrified in his heart, he also had a proud bone, from small to large, self-satisfied, heard the words "kneel down and cut your throat", the anger in his heart instantly dispersed the fear, his face ferocious, cold smile after another, bellowed: "What a joke! I, Guan Ming, am the first disciple of Qingyu Gate, also the young master of the Guan family. This year, Wuji Sect also has my promotion quota. What are you? A waste that formed the body of the earth, even Wuji Sect rejected you! You dare to let me kneel down and cut my throat! Go die!"

  Guan Ming took a step forward, and the surroundings trembled. His body was surrounded by a brilliant light, like flames burning fiercely. As he swung his arms, a green aura transformed into a wild wolf. The wolf was over three meters tall, its fur standing on end, each hair sharp as a needle. It tossed its head, opened its jaws, and revealed razor-sharp teeth!

  Qīngyùmén jué xué zhàn jì, tiānláng xiào yuè.

  Translation:

  The Qingyu Gate's ultimate learning of war skills, the heavenly wolf howls at the moon.

  This kind of martial skill, the power is extremely great, it's said that only after reaching the Innate Stage and having true energy circulating endlessly can one cultivate it. Who would have thought that Guan Mingshu was only at the Acquired Stage, yet he had already mastered Tian Lang Xiao Yue? His innate talent and comprehension are truly enviable.

  Although Tang Jing's expression remained as cold as ever, the fierce light in his eyes grew thicker and more intense. He stood up, shouting loudly, "Kneel down!"

  Two words burst out, with a mighty momentum, like the thunder of nine heavens, like the earth's furious roar. The sound was overbearing, each tone shocking, shaking the great hall violently, shattering the illusions in an instant, shattering all the tables and chairs inside the great hall, stunning the surrounding people, their eardrums buzzing, heads splitting with pain, hearts filled with fear, bodies trembling, on the verge of collapse.

  The sound burst forth, and the Heavenly Wolf Cry that Guan Mingsheng had unleashed was immediately crushed and scattered. He, who was in mid-air, had his seven orifices shaken so much that they bled profusely, and he fell from mid-air with a thud, kneeling on the ground.

  The sound has stopped, but the lingering echo still resonates in my mind. Many people cover their ears, paralyzed on the ground, terrified and unable to understand how this sound can have such a terrifying power. Is it the Lion's Roar skill from Buddhism? No! There is not even a hint of true energy contained within the sound. What is going on here?

  Even the master of Liu City was deeply shocked, and perhaps only she was still sitting there calmly, but her face was also somewhat unsightly. She clearly knew that Tang Jing's drink was not a lion's roar, but a purely powerful shout. However, she couldn't understand how pure power could be exerted with such majesty. Was it possible that the guy in front of her had already reached an astonishing level of mastery over his powers?

  "Spare... spare me!"

  His seven orifices bled, his dantian's true qi burst and scattered, his meridians were completely severed, and he was reduced to a complete cripple by Tang San's single shout. He was terrified, truly afraid, this terror even seeped into his soul.

  "Let you off?" Tang Jing stood up, took a step forward, and his body trembled violently as he approached. He stopped in front of him, his eyes wide with anger, his gaze filled with ferocity, and roared, "When I unleash my killing intent, I won't even spare myself, how could I let you off?" As soon as he finished speaking, endless killing intent erupted and spread out wildly.

  Let's go!

  Under your control!

  Headshot!
