Chapter 174: Spiritual Essence, Blade Suppresses Dual Kings (9k) (Part 2)

And the Life Blossom, like the gathering of all life in the surrounding area.

Yue Wukong steadied himself and replied angrily.

Under this blade, the airflow contracted, and even the black flames on his body were sucked in, completely suppressed by the blade.

This caused many to frown, and an ominous premonition arose in their hearts.

From the great sun and moon to the mountains and rivers, from the wind and rain to thunder and lightning, from a single tree and leaf to a grain of sand and stone.

The warrior who had spoken earlier suddenly became uncertain.

Just from this one blade, he could glimpse Ji Jingqiu's true nature. This person is not one to boast without substance. His innate wildness is also rare.

Some cultivate spiritual energy to nurture their bodies, seeking to plant spiritual seeds in their flesh; some merge with the appearance of heaven and earth, combining their mental state and legal domain to evolve the strongest domain; and some simply "nurture their spirits," cultivating their pure divine nature.

The power of heaven and earth?! He was startled, suddenly remembering someone mentioning this guy's self-attainment of the Primordial Body at the age of sixteen.

This person has undoubtedly touched upon the domain of the Archduke-level.

Ji Jingqiu suppressed countless mental demons with his Heart Stone Realm, unafraid of the two warriors' combined might.

Pei Jing, with white hair, had a cold expression. He wiped the blood off the blade's edge. If it weren't for a guy named Wanshan among them, he could handle all of them alone!

The Western Emperor's heart and mind were terrified. What kind of monster was being nurtured in this person's inner realm?! The next moment, he felt a chill in his heart and body, as if he had fallen into a harsh winter, and his body seemed to freeze. His mind was temporarily suppressed, unable to control his body, and he suddenly fell to the ground.

"Be careful, Wanshan is coming!" Taidi Tongji shouted.

"Who are you?! How dare you ambush me. You can go die with him too!"

Under the long blade, Yue Wukong's face turned red, and his hands seemed to be stuck to the blade, without a chance to withdraw and dodge.

"Am I seeing things? Don't be fooled by the peaceful appearance of the temple. In reality, there are hidden dangers. Even those hundred steps are not something ordinary True Seed warriors can pass through."

The internal struggles within the Federation are one thing, but external matters are another.

Among warriors, they make friends through martial arts.

However, the distance between them seems to be growing wider.

"No need!"

Ji Jingqiu slowly drew his blade from its sheath.

Ji Jingqiu looked around and quickly locked onto a spot several kilometers away.

"When you're out in the world, you earn respect through your own abilities, not by others giving it to you." Ji Jingqiu responded coldly.

However, he wasn't prepared to try absorbing the spiritual essence here yet.

In front of such a warrior, unless they are of the same rank, they are basically like miscellaneous fish, unable to win through sheer numbers. "Brother Ji, that guy is a lackey of the Four Divine Temples. Don't hold back!" Taidi Tongji suddenly shouted.

For a moment, all four directions were silent.

Before the Dead Domain's infinite expansion, taking the Life Blossom in advance can be considered a meritorious deed.

In an instant, spiritual electricity enveloped Qingzhu, accompanied by a snow-bright blade light. Amidst the friction sound of the blade sheath and blade, spiritual electricity shot out in all directions, combining with the power of the Zen Seal, affecting many innocent bystanders.

"What? Self-attainment of the Primordial Body?! Is it a Primordial Body of the same rank as Yue Wukong's ancestral bloodline?!"

Since attaining the Primordial Body, the enemies he encountered were far from posing a threat, let alone oppression.

"The Western Emperor of the Eye of Demon Empire, the first royal bloodline."

Ji Jingqiu scanned this demiplane, filled with awe.

"Let's go."

In this Flaming Sun Federation, which has only developed for a million years, such a terrifying young warrior has appeared! "Could it be that their previous warnings were not just intimidation, but there's actually something to it? Has the Federation truly given birth to several Archduke-level warriors in this generation?" someone whispered.

[Great Sun Separation Fire]! In an instant, Ji Jingqiu felt the surroundings suddenly darken, as if the light around him was being deprived, turning dim and mysterious, filled with strange power that disoriented the eyes, ears, and mind.

The next moment, Wanshan's body was severed.

With the cover of the Mu Family's warriors, everyone worked together to counterattack, killing several pursuers, some of whom didn't even have a chance to retreat from the demiplane.

"No wonder he could fight to this level!"

He roared, attempting to stand up and push Ji Jingqiu back, but the ground beneath him cracked open with terrifying fissures, yet he still couldn't escape! Even the heavenly principles he tried to summon were only half as powerful, unable to break free from the suppression.

"Tch! A bunch of trash, daring to chase after me!"

But first, you need to find a way to grasp enough heavenly principles.

"Trifling skills!"

Ji Jingqiu felt the long blade descending, slowing down more and more as it encountered unimaginable resistance.

He sighed, stabilizing his mind, not wanting to compare himself to a freak.

The other warriors asked, "Should we fight them or continue forward?"

Just then, another figure swiftly approached, their aura only slightly weaker than Yue Wukong.

With their martial intentions locked in, Pei Jing was unable to move!

Ji Jingqiu sighed inwardly.

Even in this direct confrontation, Yue Wukong was gradually falling into a disadvantage, and the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable! This young man from the Flaming Sun Federation might not have had the same formidable physique as Yue Wukong, but his attacks seemed to be enhanced by some secret technique, and they were endless!

Five or six warriors from the Federation and three or four from other civilizations stood together, their faces grave.

Mu Rouzhi quickly joined them.

Ji Jingqiu finally felt the long-lost sense of threat from a peer.

Ji Jingqiu fell into deep thought.

He leaped forward, forming a sun-wheel with his hands, and his entire body resembled a rising black sun. In an instant, he closed the distance.

Ji Jingqiu raised his eyebrows. Was this how a powerhouse made an entrance? He seemed to have a background introduction, and the Federation's closed nature was fully revealed at this moment.

【Heart Demon Rampage】! In an instant.

Xi Di glanced at Ji Jingqiu, remembering this powerful warrior and vowing to face him again in the future.

As one of the Four Divine Temple's chosen ones, he could pollute his opponent's mind by borrowing a portion of the Four Divine Temple's power during a mental confrontation.

On the other side.

Even the warriors from the Eye of Demon Empire wouldn't dare to easily use heart mystic techniques against the warriors from the Four Divine Temple, fearing the taint of bad luck.

Among the surrounding onlookers, Duan Xuanji stood out with a solemn expression, ready to step forward.

"Let me see if you can get some face back from me!"

Even the heart mystic technique user from the Eye of Demon Empire suffered a mental backlash during the mental confrontation.

Was this the Mind Stone Realm? What kind of monster was this guy?! The backlash from the mental attack caused Wan Shan to briefly lose control over his physical body. Even the thought of using his life-saving means to retreat became a luxury! "Four Savage Demons, no mercy!" Ji Jingqiu closed in, and the long blade descended.

"This..."

The surrounding spectators gasped.

They had already joined forces to clear the area, and Ji Jingqiu's strength was exactly what they needed to eliminate first.

The lotus pond in the inner realm only had a faint resemblance to the Eight Virtues Pond, still far from a complete transformation.

This sense of authority and power came from him suppressing a warrior who was considered a potential Archduke-level powerhouse by many top-tier civilizations! Wan Shan's face turned pale, his previous arrogance vanished, and he stared fixedly at the approaching Ji Jingqiu.

Mu Rouzhi stepped forward, pointing to someone in the distance.

Xi Di intervened, and the situation changed instantly, affecting the hearts of the surrounding onlookers.

Even the warriors from other civilizations were intimidated. One strike of the blade broke Wan Shan's arm armor, leaving him unable to resist as he was pushed back several meters...

Azuregreen Temple.

"Hehe..."

It was bad enough with Wan Shan, but how could Yue Wukong, a potential Archduke-level warrior, also be knocked away in just a few moves?!

In short, the human body is like a canvas, and spiritual essence is the paint. What kind of magnificent painting can be created depends entirely on the warrior.

In theory, spiritual essence doesn't differentiate between high and low, as all contain the true heavenly rhythm. However, they are divided into three levels based on the length of the spiritual essence flow, from one to nine inches, into upper, middle, and lower tiers.

After all, according to the Azuregreen Lineage's warriors, this staircase couldn't be passed in a short time.

...

She stood before an ancient statue, her hair loose, covering half her face, and even this small portion of her appearance was enough to astonish the world.

He leaped forward again, engaging Ji Jingqiu in close combat. Their blades clashed, and Ji Jingqiu's Black Sun Battle Body was known for its vigorous blood and sturdy physique. In the late stages of cultivation, it was even possible for the body to transform into a star!

Yue Wukong clenched his teeth, feeling the pain from the blade's light even before it reached him. His skin turned red, and his internal energy surged, making it difficult to breathe! A dark vortex formed within his body, generating an immense suction force that slowed down the blade.

This scene was too shocking to describe.

Was this a Primordial Body equal to his own ancestral bloodline?

In the vastness of the Great Universe, it was impossible for a Primordial Body to connect with the power of Heaven and Earth!

Ji Jingqiu refocused, realizing how far he was from achieving this.

"Let me go!"

6◇9◇Book◇End

He hoped to have enough time, and he wanted to walk through every corner of this Bosa Demiplane, weeding out all the Ninth Ring areas, and leave this Demiplane clean.

In his field of vision, the young man stood calmly, his voice unwavering, and his figure exuded an unshakable aura of power and dignity.

Duan Xuanji shook his head, "Prepare to fight."

No one expected that one of the top Divine Children of the Four Divine Temples would suffer a significant setback in just one move, and despite using all his might, his opponent didn't even draw his sword, causing him to be injured.

The true Eight Meritorious Pool was not something that could be easily nurtured with just a dozen Life Flowers.

In this Inner World, there was Divine Essence everywhere!

A dazzling sword light appeared in his vision.

The sword swept across without hesitation, not stopping for even a moment, decisive and merciless.

【Bright Shattering Star Fist】! This was an ultimate technique of the Azuregreen Temple, and there had been Grandmasters who, with this fist technique, had shattered a star with a single punch.

The Western Emperor didn't plan to just stand by and watch.

"Over there is the Azuregreen Temple. We're not far now."

As they ventured deeper, the sunlight gradually dimmed, and the surrounding trees grew taller, each requiring several people to encircle it. The dense foliage blocked out the sun.

He couldn't do that! In the next moment, sword lights crisscrossed, covering the sky and earth, pressing towards him! Yue Wukong's body was enveloped in black flames, and his Black Sun Battle Body was operating at its peak, spontaneously connecting with the surrounding Law Principles. The Black Sun Domain evolved to its utmost.

"I see someone hunting down our Federation's warriors. Among them, there's an old acquaintance of mine."

At this moment, she felt as if she had traveled through time, standing alongside an ancestor, witnessing a domineering and unrestrained figure soaring into the azure sky, ascending above the heavens.

His third eye opened, and without reservation, he launched an offensive against Ji Jingqiu.

Even though he was an Apex Archduke, he couldn't resist the formidable aura emanating from Ji Jingqiu. He turned and ran, unburdened by his status, gritting his teeth, determined to bring Ji Jingqiu to the rear.

And now, Ji Jingqiu had already surpassed that person.

The next moment.

Every moment, there was a possibility for Spiritual Essence to descend and evolve, and it might dissipate and return to Heaven and Earth in the next second.

"Western Emperor, don't interfere!"

This was one of Ji Jingqiu's most far-reaching moves.

However, the Western Emperor saw it clearly.

Although it might not be a fair contest, this wasn't about fairness.

On their side, there were also several Apex Archdukes working together to surround and suppress Ji Jingqiu. Despite Ji Jingqiu's exceptional talent, he was forced to retreat. However, Ji Jingqiu's speed exceeded his imagination, and a sword mark stretched across hundreds of meters, intercepting his figure. Then, a terrifying mental fluctuation occurred.

Ji Jingqiu's expression turned solemn, and the aura around him began to rise again.

"Good for you, relying on yourself! Now, I, Yue, want to learn a thing or two!" Yue Wukong roared in anger.

At this point in the battle, Yue Wukong was no longer "rational," and he didn't hold back. Every punch and palm strike was executed with full force, and each attack could tear apart a dragon's image. Just the overflowing fist wind was enough to sever the giant trees that required the combined strength of several people to embrace.

If this scene wasn't happening right before their eyes, these warriors from various civilizations would never believe that such a warrior could exist in the Great Universe.

His aura was aggressive like fire, and his gaze towards Ji Jingqiu was scrutinizing.

However...

At the same time.

Mu Rouzhi clearly saw countless Law Principles flashing in his eyes, and she wondered if he was cultivating an eye technique.

The onlookers were horrified, and those with weaker mental fortitude felt their bodies stiffen for a moment, and their legs went soft.

Suddenly, Yue Wukong clapped his palms together, trapping Ji Jingqiu's long sword in between, and he roared, attempting to break Ji Jingqiu's sword.

This heart demon was indeed hard to guard against.

A loud shout resounded—

Under the illumination of the Black Sun, the surrounding vegetation withered and dried up in an instant, and the ground cracked as if scorched by prolonged exposure to the sun. An astonishing amount of heat emanated from his body, spreading out in all directions, creating a Black Sun.

With this sword move, all enemies would seek a glimmer of life under my sword! Wan Nian's expression turned solemn, and his instincts told him that this sword move was extremely dangerous. Moreover, this sword move was too fast, and he no longer had the opportunity to dodge.

Especially those eyes, deep as an abyss, exuding an ancient aura, as if they had witnessed countless cycles of life and death, carrying the power of the ages, making it hard to look directly at them.

"In this sword move, I seem to see the figure of an old acquaintance." She whispered to herself, "After countless ages, this world is no longer dull, and even he has chosen a successor."

"This temple... should also be opened."

　Recommendation: Master of a hundred arts, skilled in a myriad of techniques, but can he attain longevity?
