Chapter 172: Unparalleled Battle Power! The Perfection of Eighty-One Transformations!
Chapter 172: Unparalleled Battle Power! The Perfection of Eighty-One Transformations!
Boom!
The explosive sound of the wind tore through the air, and a powerful gust swept past on both sides.
Qin Zheng's figure was like a streak of light, dashing through the sky.
Behind him, a sword brimming with killing intent was rapidly chasing after him at an incredible speed.
Without any special martial arts, relying solely on the primitive and rough method of Qi control for flight, the speed still couldn't compare to the flying sword controlled by psychic energy.
Qin Zheng sighed inwardly, and with a mental nudge, his body suddenly descended downward.
Bang! His feet touched the ground, and the powerful impact stirred up a cloud of dust.
Before Qin Zheng could even catch his breath, a long spear suddenly appeared behind him.
The tip of the spear, as white as snow, shone like a cold glint, piercing the air and emitting a booming sound, enveloped in a surge of divine might as it thrust forward.
Qin Zheng's expression remained calm, without a ripple of disturbance, as if he had anticipated the appearance of this spear.
With a simple turn and a reach, the spear was already in his grasp, unable to advance even an inch further.
Across from him stood a seven-foot-tall, robust man, as sturdy as a wild bull, gripping the other end of the spear and exerting all his strength.
But no matter how hard he pushed, the spear felt like it was stuck in a quagmire, unable to budge an inch.
Whoosh!
At that moment, the flying sword caught up, whipping up a fierce wind and waves, and stabbed towards Qin Zheng.
Seeing this, a glint of determination flashed in the burly man's eyes, and he gathered his strength, preparing to strike with all his might when Qin Zheng was distracted, and pierce the spear into his body.
But as the flying sword descended, Qin Zheng reached out with one hand, and with a quick pinch, he crushed the sword between his fingers.
The entire motion was smooth and effortless, yet seemingly ordinary.
This sudden development gave the burly man a bad premonition, and he roared, "What are you waiting for? Attack now!"
Boom!
The ground trembled as if a dragon was stirring beneath it.
Instantly, a bulky figure leaped into the air like a cannonball and slammed towards Qin Zheng.
With both hands restrained, let's see how you deal with the third Half-step Martial Sage!
A glint of ruthlessness flashed in the burly man's eyes.
Facing this situation, Qin Zheng's expression remained calm, without a ripple of disturbance.
Crack!
A crisp cracking sound echoed, and in the burly man's eyes, he saw the sword shatter into pieces under Qin Zheng's fingers.
The burly man was shocked.
Even a sword made of special materials could be crushed by his grip. How immense was his strength!
And he could also fly using Qi Control!
This wasn't just a Great Master; he had surpassed the limits of 'Essence' and 'Qi', becoming a Half-step Martial Sage!
Quanyang Gao Clan, you've deceived me!
Without hesitation, the burly man abandoned his spear and turned to flee.
But just as he turned, he felt a gentle breeze brush past, and before he knew it, a large hand had grasped his neck.
Crack!
A crisp shattering sound echoed, and the burly man's body went limp, losing control.
Bang!
A palm print appeared on his chest, and a muffled explosion sounded from within, as if something had detonated.
The burly man knew it was his heart. But as a Half-step Martial Sage, the immense vitality gained from breaking through the 'Essence' limit kept him from dying instantly.
He was casually thrown to the ground, his eyes wide, silently feeling the ebbing of his life force.
Above him, the bulky figure finally crashed down.
Qin Zheng moved, disappearing from the ground and reappearing above the bulky figure.
A sense of impending death enveloped Wu Qiyong's heart.
"You're using that move again?" he cried out in terror.
But the foot, like a divine mountain, still landed on him.
This time, his flesh couldn't withstand the force of that kick.
In an instant, his body exploded, turning into a mist of blood that filled the sky.
Seeing this, the burly man on the ground lost all the light in his eyes, and they went dark forever.
Two Half-Saints who had surpassed the 'Essence' limit were killed in just a few moves.
After finishing, Qin Zheng descended, and his gaze turned towards a certain direction.
There, a man with a sinister expression stared at Qin Zheng.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, two flying swords shot out, viciously stabbing towards Qin Zheng.
Seeing this, Qin Zheng's eyes flickered, as if he'd realized something.
Whoosh!
With a thought, two small knives shot out, intercepting the flying swords from both sides.
These were the Martial Saint weapons obtained from the Great Master sent by the Cangyuan Dragon Lord.
Seeing this, the sinister man's expression finally changed. His gaze towards Qin Zheng became filled with terror.
"You've already broken through Essence and Qi..."
Before he could finish, Qin Zheng appeared before him, and his Heavenly Eye suddenly opened.
Whoosh!
A surge of spiritual power burst forth, instantly shattering his soul.
In the blink of an eye, the Half-step Martial Sage who had surpassed the limits of 'Divinity' was completely annihilated, his divine soul extinguished.
Boom! Boom!
At that moment, the two uncontrollable flying swords collided with the two small knives, and then exploded into countless fragments that filled the sky.
The third Half-step Martial Sage had fallen.
Within just a few moves, Qin Zheng had crushed and eliminated three Half-step Martial Sages with overwhelming force.
This was the battle prowess achieved after perfecting the Eighty-One Transformations Holy Scripture!
At the last moment, the Enlightenment Divine Stele transformed once more, infusing Qin Zheng with a strand of profound energy, allowing him to successfully comprehend and break through the final transformation.
Thus, at this moment, Qin Zheng had completely perfected the Eighty-One Transformations Holy Scripture.
Essence, Qi, and Spirit had all reached their peak levels!
He only needed to transform his body into a crucible, melding the three into one, and take one more step to achieve the Martial Sage Realm`!
Qin Zheng turned around, and with his Heavenly Eye, he could perceive everything beyond the limits of mortal vision.
When he looked towards the location of the other two slain Half-step Martial Sages, he noticed that no souls were present.
Apparently, their souls had perished along with their physical bodies.
However, in the previous battles, whether it was Gao Wenyu or the others, their souls did not dissipate after they were killed.
But the souls of the Half-step Martial Sages he had slain dissipated along with their physical bodies.
So, does the path to becoming a Martial Sage require the unification of the physical body and the soul? Qin Zheng had a vague realization.
He then focused his thoughts and approached the bodies to search them.
Surely these three Half-step Martial Sages wouldn't be as poor as Gao Yuewen, with nothing to their name? Although Wu Qiyong had been crushed by a kick, his storage bag remained undamaged.
Qin Zheng picked it up and immediately used his psychic energy to erase the markings on it, then probed inside with his psychic energy.
The bag contained various celestial materials and spirit medicines, but they were of little use to Qin Zheng.
Despite his preparations, Qin Zheng couldn't help but feel a twinge of disappointment.
After putting away the storage bag, he turned towards the burly man.
This man was even poorer, without a storage bag, only possessing some pills for replenishing Qi and blood, and a few silver bills.
How could a noble Half-step Martial Sage be so destitute? Qin Zheng felt a sense of disdain.
Finally, he approached the sinister man, who had broken through the limits of 'Divinity' and should have something different.
As he thought this, he searched the body and found a storage bag.
Following the previous process, he repeated the steps and probed inside with his psychic energy.
This time, Qin Zheng discovered something special.
Several flying swords and a manual for a psychic martial art.
Qin Zheng's eyebrows rose, and he immediately took out the manual.
"Divine Control Art"
Indeed, it was a psychic martial art.
Qin Zheng opened the manual and began to read.
After a moment, the Virtue Scroll in his sea of consciousness trembled slightly.
[Current Martial Art: Divine Control Art, can be refined. Requires ten jin of Virtue. Do you want to refine it?]
This manual taught how to control all things with psychic energy.
It instructed practitioners to use less psychic energy to control larger and more objects, unleashing greater power.
"Refine!"
Qin Zheng didn't hesitate and immediately gave the command in his mind.
After killing several Half-step Martial Sages burdened with sins, Qin Zheng had accumulated a significant amount of Virtue. He decided to refine the art to test its effects.
It had to be said that the Gao Clan was indeed a source of fortune for Qin Zheng. Every member who attacked him was steeped in sin.
If someone with a perfect level of Virtue had come, Qin Zheng might have faced a dilemma.
Just like when he encountered the Chongming Monk in Heiyan City.
At that time, the Virtue Scroll had warned him that killing the monk would deduct a hundred liang of Virtue from him.
Back then, Qin Zheng had only accumulated a few dozen liang of Virtue, and he didn't know what would have happened if he didn't have enough to deduct.
If the Gao Clan sent someone with a perfect level of Virtue to intercept him, Qin Zheng might have had no choice but to avoid confrontation.
Qin Zheng thought this, and then he chuckled lightly.
There weren't many people with a perfect level of Virtue. If they had, they wouldn't go against their conscience and follow the Gao Clan's orders to intercept others.
These scattered thoughts flashed through Qin Zheng's mind in an instant.
As he improved his martial arts, he also practiced his light body skills and headed towards the official road.
In a short while, Fu Yu's carriage should catch up.
Indeed, not long after he reached the official road, Fu Yu's figure, driving the carriage, appeared within his sight.
"Senior Brother Qin!"
Seeing Qin Zheng standing there, Fu Yu immediately whipped the horse and hurried over.
But with a single step, Qin Zheng transformed into a streak of light.
When he reappeared, he was already sitting on the other side of the carriage, leisurely enjoying the surrounding scenery.
Seeing that he was unharmed, Fu Yu's heart relaxed slightly.
Then, remembering Qin Zheng's previous soaring into the sky, he hesitated for several breaths before asking curiously, "Senior Brother Qin, you..."
"What level have you reached now?"
Qin Zheng pondered for a moment before replying, "I should be... a Supreme Grandmaster."
