Chapter 324: A Fist and a Spear
Chapter 324: A Fist and a Spear
Qingqiu Laozu's plan was simple. Through the young man's previous punch, it had roughly gauged his opponent's strength. Perhaps others might not understand, but Qingqiu was well-versed in various esoteric knowledge. There was nothing peculiar about his opponent; he was merely a tempered martial artist.
As for his cultivation, it didn't matter because he definitely couldn't withstand Qingqiu's palm strike, so there was no need to panic. There was no need to be caught off guard by any hidden deadly move his opponent might have. Once he figured out what it was, it would be easy to toy with this young man.
The ink-green tortoise shell pattern quickly unfolded, blocking the mysterious light and attempting to engulf it. However, it shattered even faster than it had appeared. It didn't even last a single breath.
Shen Yi glided past the shattered tortoise shell, treading on air and arriving below the fox's head. Without uttering a word, he focused intently and thrust the spear in his hand toward the fox's neck.
The wide and smooth cyan shirt fluttered noisily. A faint glow emanated from his skin, making his entire person look even paler.
Accompanied by a soft sound, the fox demon's fur-covered array was dispelled by the faint light. The grotesquely shaped spear tip pierced through the flesh, penetrating without a single drop of blood spilling out. The entire wound was filled with black light.
"Xuanfeng... Xuanfeng..." Qingqiu Laozu was still chanting the spell, but he found that he gradually couldn't make a sound. He stared blankly downward, his eyes fixed on the young man's handsome face. He saw the young man looking back at him, his clear eyes reflecting an enlarged fox head.
The already enormous demonic body seemed to swell even more at this moment.
Thin strands of faint light seeped out from its skin.
Chila! A sound like tearing cloth rang out from various parts of Qingqiu Laozu's body as its demonic body was torn open from the inside, revealing the faint sound of a dragon's roar.
Then, it deflated like a punctured balloon.
"..."
Shen Yi slowly relaxed his grip on the Youwei Spear.
Who needed three moves or three hundred moves?
He most likely only had one chance. If he let the Qingqiu Fox discover the existence of the Youwei Spear, it would never allow him to get close again.
He was here to slay the demon, not to duel.
Shen Yi lowered his gaze slightly.
Having lost the support of its demonic power, the fox demon's internal organs had been pulverized into a meat paste by the faint light, and it fell powerlessly toward the ground below.
A spear pierced through its neck, returning to the young man's waist storage artifact.
Boom—
The fox demon crashed to the ground, shattering the surrounding silence with a loud, dull thud.
Clearing Wind Zhenren still had his index finger raised.
Two moves.
Facing Qingqiu Laozu's various means, Shen Yi had only used a fist and a spear.
If not for his low realm, which made it impossible to get close to the fox demon on his own, plus his overcautiousness in wasting a punch to shatter the pearl treasure, he could have ended the fight with just one spear strike.
But what silenced Clearing Wind Zhenren wasn't the fall of Qingqiu Laozu. He knew that his opponent had died to an incredibly powerful divine weapon, one that even he might not be able to withstand.
What he found outrageous was how Shen Yi could quietly hold the Youwei Spear in his palm.
That was no ordinary weapon. It was the tail of Old Sixteen from the Thousand Demon Cave, nurtured by yin qi spirit roots for who knew how many years. It had long become an incredibly violent and sinister object.
Anyone who dared to touch it would be lucky if they only suffered its backlash instead of being devoured by it. How could it possibly obey another's commands?
"Comparable to the early stages of Transformation realm cultivation, coupled with the Youwei Spear."
Clearing Wind Zhenren slowly retracted his palm and reassessed the falling young man in the air.
It was difficult to gauge the strength of such an existence using conventional means.
If one were prepared, any mid-stage Transformation realm cultivator could instantly kill him through various means. However, conversely, if one gave him the opportunity, Shen Yi would also only need one strike to take their life.
Not long ago, he had witnessed Shen, his martial brother, covered in black scales and almost transformed into a demon under the influence of that spear.
Now, it was the same spear, and Shen Yi's cultivation had not skyrocketed.
Yet, the long spear had mysteriously become incredibly obedient.
"Think of a way that isn't too embarrassing for him to forget about what just happened with the three or five moves."
Clearing Wind Zhenren coughed dryly.
Such an act of self-delusion should not be happening to him.
"Master, you worry too much. As long as you don't look for him, Shen, your martial brother, will most likely not bother you." Tang Yuan nodded earnestly.
"It seems even more embarrassing now."
Clearing Wind Zhenren rolled his eyes, a hint of youthful immaturity in his gesture.
He turned around only to find that everyone from Da Qian was staring blankly, including the Yaksha Dharma image.
What does this mean? Did this group also know nothing like me? And they dared to follow that young man with the surname Shen to go against Qingqiu Laozu?
For a moment, Clearing Wind Zhenren was at a loss for words. He waved his hand and dismissed the light screen.
"I'm not so sure he's our martial brother Shen anymore."
Zhu Jue didn't rush out like before, but stood there, shaking his head.
Wu Dao'an opened his mouth as well.
They remembered when Shen Yi had first arrived at the Martial Temple; he had just condensed his Yin God and wasn't even close to being a beginner Martial Immortal.
And every time he left and came back, he seemed a little stranger.
It was fine before, at least it was just a leap in realm.
This time was more exaggerated; he had directly transitioned from a Yin God cultivator to a Mixed Yuan cultivator and then relied on his transversely trained physical body to slaughter Qingqiu Laozu.
"Have you noticed something?"
Wu Dao'an turned his head in a daze, "Isn't Martial Brother Shen what Qingqiu has always wanted to become?"
He is proficient in all paths and can play with anything.
He is the true ancestor of Qingqiu!
"Hu—"
Shen Yi walked closer, watching the group exchange bewildered glances.
He didn't have any particular thoughts about it.
He had avoided them before because he couldn't explain things clearly.
Now, it was better.
There was no one in Da Qian who needed him to explain anything anymore.
He just walked up to Clearing Wind and quietly looked at him.
Today, the strength he had displayed should be enough for the other party to acknowledge Da Qian's identity.
"..."
What are you doing, looking for trouble?
Clearing Wind Zhenren averted his gaze, pretending to casually look around.
"Master, you're being too obvious."
Tang Yuan lowered his head and whispered.
"Hahaha."
Clearing Wind Zhenren laughed aloud, his hand behind his back, and he pulled Tang Yuan with him as he rose into the air and flew away.
Xu Hongde stared at the youth's departing figure.
He retracted his gaze and looked at Shen Yi again.
It was clear that the outside world had undergone significant changes, and at the very least, Da Qian had become a target of provocation for Qingqiu.
This should have been a cause for dissatisfaction.
After all, when Shen Yi had brought them out, he hadn't mentioned anything related to this.
But after personally witnessing the previous incident,
All dissatisfaction vanished in an instant.
Just as Shen Yi had said before, Xu Hongde now knew who he was.
Having him alone was enough.
It just so happened that Da Qian's decline gave the Xu family an opportunity to join.
