Chapter 9: Suppression

  Meng Qi pressed his hand on the long sword and stepped forward with one foot, then he left the small boat as if drifting with the wind, calmly and naturally "walking" onto the dock.

  He walked at a slow pace, walking slowly towards the Luo Jiao person who was wearing black clothes but had not covered his face, as if everything was under control.

  This man of Luo teaching is a middle-aged man with ordinary five senses, the only thing that makes people impressive is his thin lips, and the closer you get to him, the more you can feel the faint divine pressure, apparently the heavenly strange stone is in his arms.

  "Since parting with Xiaosang, I have been thinking of her often. Her voice and appearance are still vivid in my mind. I wonder if she has mastered the magic of the Demon Sect? Unfortunately, I didn't get to inherit this legacy." Meng Qi said leisurely as he walked.

  Gu Xiao Sang is good at sowing discord and driving people apart, but she will also be affected by it herself!

  She wouldn't tell others about the matter of the demon tomb, but she had already informed her master. There was no demonic aura on her body, and her reputation wasn't well-known, so she didn't fear exposure. Even if the person from the Luo Sect in front of her died at her hands, Hua Xiu would spread the news, sowing seeds of suspicion between the Holy Maiden of the Luo Sect, the Law King, and the Divine Envoy. Even if the effect wasn't immediate, it could be considered as her first counterattack against Gu Xiao Sang.

  And to say it in such detail, exposing such a big secret, would make things seem real, making the people of Luo Jiao believe subconsciously that they had indeed gone to Mo Yun with Gu Xiao Sang, competing for the inheritance of the Demon Master, although they failed, but managed to escape from the fourth person on the Human List, "Da Luo Yao Nu", whose realm and strength are seemingly similar!

  The Taoist gripped his fists tightly, watching the elegant young man in a green robe approach slowly from across the way. His voice was calm and gentle, asking polite questions, accompanied by the clear wind and bright moonlight, as well as the quiet ripples on the water. Suddenly, he felt a strong sense of confidence in his opponent, that everything was under control, so there was no need to rush into action.

  He and Sheng Nu are old acquaintances, a high-ranking master of the same level, this kind of behavior is quite normal!

  But with a gap as large as that of a saint, what can I use to counter this swordsman of this realm?

  Meng Qi walked slowly with his sword, one step at a time, as if strolling in a leisurely courtyard. But to the people of Luo Jiao, it seemed that every step he took was on their own heart, synchronizing with the beat of their hearts, thumping louder and louder, the pressure growing greater, until beads of cold sweat appeared on their foreheads.

  Suddenly, he heard a faint breathing sound and realized that there were other enemies hiding on the ship. He was instantly flustered, realizing that he had fallen into a trap. The reason why others didn't attack him was because the young master in front of him had enough confidence and strength to easily take him down!

  The Hua Yun on the Lou Boat, as Meng Qi had instructed, deliberately did not use the Introspection Secret Method, exposing their position and putting pressure on the Luo Cult members. At this time, he watched as Meng Qi walked towards the enemy with a calm and composed demeanor, his clothes fluttering in the wind, his face like jade, and his temperament outstanding. The opponent, however, was like an enemy at the gates, both fearful of being attacked and not daring to turn around and flee, and had a feeling of trembling with fear. Suddenly, there was a sense that Meng Gongzi's aura was as solid as substance, truly suppressing the opponent's feelings.

  "Indeed, a masterful move!" Huá Lún exclaimed from the bottom of her heart. "No wonder you managed to escape from Dà Luó Yāo Nǚ's clutches... Mèng Gōngzǐ will surely rise to fame in the future..."

  Gu Xiao's reputation was well-known, her battle achievements were impressive, and she had the inheritance of the Fah Shen level true intent. Hua Yun didn't believe that Meng Qi, who was only at the four apertures to six apertures realm, would be her opponent, but being able to leave alive from her hands, Meng Qi's strength was not trivial, and it could be said that she had already approached the standard of the lower ranks of the human ranking list.

  But also because Gu Xiao Sang was so powerful, Hua Yun didn't suspect at all that Meng Qi had gained anything from the Demon's Tomb. The fact that he could come out alive was already the greatest benefit!

  And if he really had an adventure in the Demon's Tomb, would he make it public? Who wouldn't keep it a secret and not let anyone know?

  Meng Qi drew out his long sword, lightly plucked it, and the sound was like a dragon's roar. He smiled warmly and said: "Miss Xiao Sang's Wú Shēng Zhǐ (Lifeless Finger) and Qiān Sī Wàn Luó (Thousand Threads and Ten Thousand Nets) left a deep impression on me. I wonder if you would be willing, I'd like to try again."

  The man's pupils contracted slightly, and he unconsciously took on a defensive posture. He had indeed clashed with the Holy Maiden!

  The "Lifeless Finger" of the Holy Maiden Sect, due to the spread of the Six Panel Door's rankings, everyone in Jianghu knows about it. However, only those at the top of the sect know the truth behind the "Thousand Threads and Ten Thousand Nets".

  And yet he's still alive after crossing hands with the Holy Maiden!

  Bang bang bang, watching Meng Qi's spring outing dam-like step by step approach, Luo Jiao's people once again had the feeling that every step he took made his heart tighten.

  Knock knock knock, the young master opposite him wore a thin green shirt, but his demeanor was outstanding, like a noble immortal. He took a deep breath, suppressed his inner fear, and decided to go all out, taking the initiative to strike first, fighting for a thread of life!

  He let out a loud whoop and pounced forward, his footsteps twisting and turning in an unusual pattern. His right fist shot out with seemingly no force behind it.

  This punch seemed powerless, but gave Meng Qi a gentle and flowing feeling, like soft water without shape!

  "A small stream returns to the river", "a hundred rivers enter the sea". The fist is halfway, and there have been two changes. By the end, it becomes a vast and endless river, like water that does not contend but wins with ease, an unstoppable force!

  Looking from afar at this punch, Hua's eyebrows furrowed, her gaze fixed, shocked and amazed. Even herself, who was outside the range of the exchange, could feel the rhythm of a small stream merging into a long river, with a hundred rivers rushing to enter the sea. This showed that the opponent's mysterious fist technique belonged to the external scene, and had already been practiced to a minor completion, only one step away from inducing the intention of the punch!

  Even so, it is still profound in meaning and its power should not be underestimated.

  Luo Jiao is indeed one of the nine evil sects, and even its disciples sent to snatch a ordinary mysterious stone have such strength! Not only in terms of physical skills, they have already opened seven apertures, but also practiced an external boxing technique to a small accomplishment.

  Can Meng Gongzi withstand it?

  Faced with this punch, Meng Qi's heart was undisturbed. If it were a normal situation, he would have gone all out and drawn the Red Sun Town Evil Knife, unleashing the Arhat Breaking Precept Blade Technique to break through the punch, then counterattacked with the Yan Luo Tie to kill his opponent.

  Now, the momentum is overwhelming, and in this spiritual confrontation, the opponent is clearly at a disadvantage, with a flaw exposed in their mind. This punch is actually a surprise attack, which conflicts with the flavor of "not contending" and reveals a flaw that shouldn't exist!

  Meng Qi didn't retreat but instead took a step forward, meeting the punch with a slanted stride, his long sword raised.

  Hua Yun was shocked and worried, facing such a terrifying fist technique, he actually still wanted to launch a surprise attack.

  A flash of sword light emerged, clear and pure, containing a stern and severe killing intent, as if it had flown out from the nine hells, flashing by in an instant!

  Hua Cun suddenly stood up, his eyes shining brightly, both shocked and excited. Was this the ultimate extreme of the Kai Kuan sword technique?

  The sword light disappeared, Meng Qi fell beside Luo Jiao's man, with his long sword sheathed and standing with his hands behind his back.

  The people of Luo's teachings seemed to have not seen him, brushing past him, rushing forward a few steps, then suddenly falling down, fresh blood flowing from under his skull, dyeing the dust red.

  "Overbearing momentum, clashing minds, and a silent struggle of spirits... indeed effective." Meng Qi stood with his hands behind him, gazing up at the bright moon in the sky, feeling quite emotional. He too had stepped into this threshold.

  Hua Yun was also silent, standing still on the deck, completely not thinking that an enemy who could make such a terrible fist would be able to block even Meng Gongzi's one sword, it seems that Huang Yun is not his opponent at all, "Liang Yang Shen Zhang" Zhang Zhi Fan may have some strength to fight.

  After a while, Meng Qi got a bit tired of posing and turned to Hua Lin with a smile: "Hua Gongzi, take a look at the strange stone, can you?"

  Hua Xun nodded vaguely, jumped off the building boat, and quickly walked to Luo Jiao's side, bowed down to search, and found the heavenly strange stone.

  "It's a rare stone." Huá Cún stepped back, indicating that other items on Luo Jiao's body belonged to Meng Gongzi.

  Shouldn't you search carefully and present it with both hands? It's beneath a master to rummage through the corpse himself! Meng Qi muttered to herself, but still squatted down to search for spoils of war.

  Today's luck is not good... Meng Qi thought sorrowfully, this guy came to snatch the Qishi, naturally wouldn't bring out the secret recipe, and was skilled in boxing, without a sharp weapon, on his body except for some silver coins, it was just ordinary flying darts that weren't considered sharp weapons and a bottle of what seemed to be anesthetic.

  Meng Qi picked up the anesthetic and ordinary darts, put them in his bosom, and sighed, it's better than nothing.

  Huá Lún stepped forward a few steps and handed the heavenly strange stone to Mèng Qí: "This matter was entirely thanks to your lordship's assistance in drawing his sword, please accept this strange stone and ponder it for three days."

  He felt it had gone far enough and didn't need to ask his father for permission anymore.

  A good thing that was delivered to his doorstep, and it was also his own "labor reward", Meng Qi naturally wouldn't hypocritically refuse. He took the mysterious stone with his right hand, subconsciously releasing his spiritual energy to examine it.

  As soon as Meng Qi's spirit came into contact with the strange stone, he felt a pulling force. Just as he was about to withdraw, the purple lightning mark on the back of his left hand suddenly bulged out, and the strange stone's pulling force suddenly increased, becoming extremely violent, sucking all of Meng Qi's spirit in at once!

  "What's going on?" Meng Qi was shocked, and in front of him appeared a world where electric snakes were dancing wildly. There were cyan lightning, purple lightning, and chaotic lightning that couldn't be described, too numerous to mention. Just looking at it made his head ache and his heart throb with difficulty.

  A burst of lightning split open, and a man walked out. His long hair was disheveled, resembling a giant, his face unclear, but his body was covered in muscles that were twisted and scarred from various lightning marks, as if his entire body had been condensed and transformed from the lightning itself.

  He raised a long spear wrapped in purple lightning, swung it obliquely with force, like a gun and spear striking like a long knife chopping, bursts of thunder and lightning responded to the situation, drilling out of thin air, splitting the chaos.

  One by one, the hazy worlds emerged and then perished under the long spear of light, an apocalyptic atmosphere spread out, directly shattering Meng Qi's spirit.

  The scenery in front of him returned to normal, and Hua Yun looked around cautiously to prevent any other enemies. Meng Qi felt a severe headache as the incomplete technique he had just acquired continued to evolve in his mind.

  Due to the move being extremely incomplete, Meng Qi only remembered a few changes and a sound similar to thunder.

  "Divine Night Nine Extinction", "Heavenly Thunder Five Claps Boom!"

  …………

  In the depths of a mist-shrouded mountain, in a place that seemed out of this world, within a temple dedicated to a dark long sword.

  The long sword suddenly shone brightly, with lightning flashing and thunder booming. Its entire body seemed to be cast from purple lightning, and in the midst of the lightning's birth and death, one could faintly see worlds within.

  Inside the hall, a woman in white sat upright, elegant and refined, as if floating like an immortal. She was startled by the long sword, her eyes fixed on it for a long time without speaking. Until the long sword calmed down, she spoke thoughtfully:

  "Has the successor of the Thunder God been born?"

  …………

  "This is the blood of the Thunder God from the Mythological Era..." Meng Qi suddenly realized.

  The strange stone outside the sky seems to have no change, but Meng Qi knows that only a little trace is left inside. The truly core, the incomplete true meaning that Huayun and others can't get has been obtained by himself who bears the mark of the Thunder God.

  "Blood of the Thunder God... Luo Jiao wants to seize it... This person is probably sent by Gu Yao Nu..." Meng Qi thoughtfully guessed, combining the matters of Mo Mu and Tian Ting.

  Although Luo's followers are numerous, Gu Xiao Sang won't do everything personally, but now that the news has been sent back, it's very likely that she'll come in person. With Jiang Zhi Wei's six senses, he can kill nine senses observers, and perhaps even eight or nine senses, Gu Xiao Sang, who might have already reached nine senses, killing Hua Tian Ge, Ning Ji Dao, etc., wouldn't be difficult, unless they notify the True One Gate, bring in outsiders, set up traps. With her current identity, having obtained some of the Lei Shen inheritance, the current situation between the Zhen Wu Sect and Shaolin isn't suitable for doing this, therefore...

  Meng Qi's face turned serious, and he cupped his hands to Hu Lun: "I still have something important to attend to, so I'll take my leave now. I won't be looking at the strange stone."
