Chapter 144: Divine Spirit's Essence Blood
Haotian, Lingdang and Murongyue all looked puzzled. Who was this Yangqian? As for the previous grudges, they didn't understand, but they felt that the middle-aged man in front of them was extremely powerful, to the point where they had to look up to him!
Shen Qiao, a top-notch existence among the Shen Qiaos. Looking at this person, her presence was like she was floating on clouds, invincible in the world! However, her own future path wasn't easy to walk, and she didn't plan to enter Huā Lóng, let alone advance to Shen Qiao.
Jiang Xiaoyu had told her that if she followed him, he would help her advance to a new realm in the future. Mu Rongyue, who was originally reluctant and unwilling, finally let go of her concerns. To be honest, there were only a few people in history who had reached this point. Maybe there were some, but they didn't leave any records behind.
However, for Jiang Xiaoyu's words, she still had some doubts, but the other party said that after seeing his senior brother, who was also her master, she would thoroughly understand and thoroughly believe.
"King of Tigers?" Jiang Xiaoyu narrowed his eyes. He was originally still in doubt, after entering the Divine Mountain, why he didn't see the existence of the Tiger King. Thinking to himself, it's better for him not to stir up trouble and leave quietly.
But unexpectedly, the Tiger King was guarding the entrance of the Divine Mountain, blocking his way! He had helped Sun Xiao Kong kill Yang Lie, and perhaps he wouldn't go after Sun Xiao Kong, but he would definitely come to find trouble with Jiang Xiao Yu! The reason was simple: Sun Xiao Kong had the Monkey Emperor backing him up, while Jiang Xiao Yu was just a human, not within his scope of concern.
"You killed my son." Yang Qian said in a deep voice. His tone was neither high nor low, very steady, and with his calm expression, it was impossible to know what emotions were going on inside him.
His joy, anger, sorrow and pleasure are not revealed on his face. This is the most terrifying opponent. Especially when he helps others and kills his son, the other party can still remain so calm. Then this person is either a cold-blooded and ruthless person or a true mastermind!
Now Yang Qian is here to intercept himself, that's definitely not the former. Taking a deep breath, Jiang Xiaoyu's face also turned serious and said: "You're so evil! As the saying goes, heaven can forgive, but one cannot live if they bring evil upon themselves!"
"I'm not here to reason with you." Yang Qian said calmly.
Yes, he came here for only one purpose, that is to kill Jiang Xiaoyu! Not to come here and talk about so-called principles with the other party. He understands the principles, he understands them very well. At this stage of cultivation, the principles are all in the heart.
Yang Qian strolled a few steps at will, as if in his own backyard, leisurely and carefree. He looked around at the scenery with an amiable smile, like a kindly old uncle.
"What do you think of the scenery here?"
"Not bad!"
"Would you like to stay here and rest in peace?"
"The scenery is beautiful and elegant, but it's not suitable for a rough person like me."
At this moment, Murong Yue and others also tightened their faces. The conversation between the two was very plain, but it revealed endless killing intent! Jiang Xiaoyu waved his hand, indicating that they should retreat a bit. The upcoming battle will be the first high-level battle since he broke through!
The other party was not someone else, but the patriarch of the three-eyed golden tiger tribe on Shen Mountain. Perhaps he would be slightly weaker than the Ape Emperor, but Jiang Xiaoyu would not underestimate him because of this. In that case, Yang Qian absolutely counted as the second person in Shen Mountain! His status was equivalent to the Stone Emperor of their human tribe.
It's impossible to have no pressure in a battle of this level! However, Jiang Xiaoyu was extremely excited. In the battle with the five gods, he didn't fully exert himself, and the use of the 108 volcanoes could only be continuously developed through combat. So, he yearned for battle, yearning to fight against strong opponents!
As for the retreat of Haotian and others, Yang Qian didn't say much. After all, he came here to kill Jiang Xiaoyu. With no one around, someone had to know that Jiang Xiaoyu was already dead, this was just following the rules. Moreover, they were just a few juniors, he didn't take them seriously. At his level, whether it was a genius or a freak, he looked down on them all.
The demon clan is different from the human clan. It's normal for humans to take in disciples. However, there are many tribes within the demon clan, and each tribe has a wary attitude towards other species.
"I can feel that you have a very powerful force within you, and I even saw a world of flames..." Yang Qian paused here, looking at Jiang Xiaoyu's reaction.
Jiang Xiaoyu's face was calm, but his heart was in turmoil! The other party had actually seen through the volcano behind him, what kind of state was this? Ah, yes, the three-eyed golden tiger tribe had a third eye that could see through everything in the world. But the other party couldn't see through his own disguise technique!
Jiang Xiao Yu didn't say much, and Yang Qian continued: "Perhaps you've had some opportunities, but today the things you're relying on will become utterly ridiculous. You think I'm at the Divine Bridge boundary? You're wrong..."
As his voice fell, a mighty aura spread from his body to the surroundings, and the surrounding flowers, grasses, and trees were all bent down by his aura, as if bowing to him in submission!
At this moment, Yang Qian is the supreme ruler of heaven and earth! This momentum can sweep across the eight wildernesses and ignore all laws of the world!
The people behind him, including Haotian, felt this momentum and their bodies were trembling. What kind of momentum was this? It was so strong that it made people involuntarily surrender and worship! However, Murong Yue didn't seem to be affected much, but he felt uncomfortable. Helplessly, the three of them continued to retreat, leaving the battlefield and watching from a distance.
Isn't this the boundary of Shenqiao? Jiang Xiaoyu was shocked, and this was indeed beyond his expectations. Originally, he still thought that the opponent was a peak existence of Shenqiao, but unexpectedly, it wasn't! This aura far exceeded Shenqiao, could it be that the opponent had already become a saint?
Looking at Jiang Xiao Yu's puzzled eyes, Yang Qian was also confused. He only heard him say: "You are also a Tianqiao cultivator, why do you have this expression? Don't you know that after Tianqiao, to become a saint, one must first cut off the Tao, enlighten the Tao, and merge with the Tao?"
Cutting Path, Enlightened Path, Merging Path... It turns out that after the Divine Bridge, there are still these three realms! Jiang Xiaoyu's heart was filled with clarity, but his mouth did not utter a word, avoiding the other party's words and saying: "Do you really want to fight me?"
"I said it's not about reason. I'm just a father, avenging my son, that's all." Yang Qian said calmly. His momentum didn't decrease, but instead became even stronger!
Jiang Xiaoyu helplessly shook his head, this matter cannot end well, one of them must die. Taking a deep breath, Jiang Xiaoyu had already clenched his fists, then let's have a battle!
The entire mountain range was in turmoil, Yang Qian's aura was too powerful! He took a step forward, and with just one simple step, he had already arrived beside Jiang Xiaoyu, and then threw a punch that steadily landed on his opponent's body.
This punch was simple and unadorned, without any extra flair, just a plain and ordinary punch. But it was precisely this kind of punch that left Jiang Xiaoyu unable to counterattack! This punch had no openings, leaving him with absolutely no opportunity to fight back!
At this time, the one hundred and eight volcanoes behind Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly unfolded and fell in front of him! Yang Qian's fist landed on top of the volcano!
Boom!
In an instant, 108 volcanoes roared like a boiling pot! They collectively spewed out a powerful lava to block this punch! Yang Qian's offense was too abnormal, the volcano shook and was extremely unstable! This was just the first move, yet he was already so exhausted!
Facing the peak of Shenqiao, Jiang Xiaoyu was very confident that he could have a great battle with his opponent. But now facing him is not Shenqiao, but the realm above Shenqiao! Zhandao, Wudao, Hedao, which stage is Yang Qian in? Jiang Xiaoyu didn't know, he only knew that he must defeat his opponent, otherwise he can't leave Shenshan!
Their figures stood in mid-air, gazing at each other. Yang Qian's face remained still, but his heart was filled with astonishment. His fist seemed simple and unadorned, yet it was the closest thing to the Way, transcending divine abilities, belonging to his own Dao and method! The fact that his opponent could withstand it without injury was what truly surprised him.
Jiang Xiaoyu took a deep breath, really not expecting the opponent to be so powerful, transcending the power of Shenqiao, and indeed it was extremely fierce! However, only such battles can stimulate one's own potential!
However, he was walking on a tightrope, surrounded by cliffs, and one careless move would make him fall to his death. The two collided, causing a strong ripple that spread throughout the region! Flowers, grass, and trees withered, shattered by the aftershocks!
"What a fierce battle, is this still a fight at the Divine Bridge Realm?" Haotian's eyes widened in shock, he couldn't believe what he was seeing. He had also seen battles at the Divine Bridge before, and there were strong practitioners of the Divine Bridge in ancient countries too. He had witnessed two intense battles between top-notch Divine Bridge practitioners, but neither of them was as exaggerated as this!
"This is no longer the Divine Bridge, but the boundary above the Divine Bridge! He has already entered the realm of the Cutting Path!" Mu Rong Yue's face moved. After exchanging blows with him, she had seen through Yang Qian's true and false moves. But as for Jiang Xiao Yu, she couldn't see through him no matter what, and didn't understand what realm he was in.
"Cutting Path?" Haotian and Lingdang were suddenly astonished, they had never heard of this realm before.
"Right!" Murong Yue nodded, this was what she had learned from the information given by the Undying God Emperor. "After the peak of Shen Bridge, start cutting off the Tao, cut off the bad Tao, and understand your own Tao!"
They suddenly realized and let go. I estimate that the lord of their ancient country is also at this level or even higher! The lord rarely takes action, and it's almost impossible to see his shadow. Only before, when Feng Huan was crowned as the imperial son, did the lord appear in person.
Yang Qian remained silent, then he held up his palm with a drop of blood floating on it. He had already made one move, a full-force strike, but failed to break through the opponent's defense, and continuing would be pointless. Being a decisive person, he decided to use his hidden technique.
"That's...the divine spirit's essence!" Murong Yue exclaimed.
