Chapter 435: Imperial Princess Qing
Chapter 435: Imperial Princess Qing
Peach Valley Secret Realm.
A black dragon and a white ape were traversing through the mist.
Suddenly!
Wu Qi's nose twitched, and he led Fang Xing towards a certain location.
Not long after, a flash of crimson light appeared, and a crimson immortal peach descended.
On the other side, two groups of people were chasing after them.
"Is that Wu Qi and the black dragon?"
One group was from Boundless Mountain, and they nodded at each other in greeting.
The other group, a bunch of demons from the Azure Emperor Palace, let out a strange cry and scattered like birds and beasts, each using their own methods.
"This one... is yours."
Fang Xing caught the crimson immortal peach and casually tossed it to Wu Qi.
"Hehe... this is the thirteenth one. We're really lucky this time."
Wu Qi scratched his ears and cheeks with delight, "I've been here a few times before, but I've never had such good luck..."
"Yeah, every time we encounter enemies, there's a chance for a crimson immortal peach, as if they're afraid we'll run away."
Fang Xing hinted with a meaningful tone.
"If that's the case, we should hurry and leave," Wu Qi, also a clever one, said as his eyes darted around.
"When the time comes, we'll enter the Void Mystic Realm first and ask a few Essence Spirit Realm experts to pilot a war vessel to escort us... ensuring a safe journey."
"I'm afraid they're not just planning to ambush us outside, but to settle things within the secret realm."
Fang Xing gazed at a certain direction with a sense of awe, "She's here..."
"She?"
Wu Qi looked in that direction and suddenly felt his hair stand on end.
A streak of azure light flew towards them, and within it seemed to be a graceful figure.
The person wore a blue robe, with ordinary features and eyes without pupils, only a pair of whites.
"Azure Emperor Palace, Imperial Princess—Shi Qing?!"
Wu Qi exclaimed in anger, "How did she get here?"
"It should be said that she must come, otherwise wouldn't the three princes of the Azure Emperor Palace have died in vain?"
Fang Xing's expression turned solemn.
In the past few days, they occasionally managed to obtain a crimson immortal peach, which was truly incredible.
Connecting this with the characteristic of the Peach Deity, who enjoyed playing with people, there was no doubt that they intended to hold him back and cause a big stir!
But Fang Xing also wanted to witness the power of an Emperor's Son, so he chose to go with the flow.
"Bad news, it's the Imperial Princess of the Azure Emperor Palace... Let's go!"
The few cultivators from Boundless Mountain were already scared out of their wits and were using various methods to flee.
The lowest among them were official members, and their comprehension of Dao principles was profound.
Moreover, they worked together, having cultivated a combined strike secret technique.
At this moment, as they fled in unison, the power of various Dao principles complemented each other, resulting in an astonishing escape speed.
"Please spare our lives..."
At this moment, Shi Qing finally spoke.
Her voice was smooth and calm, as if she were asking someone out for a meal.
But the next instant—
Whoosh!
The gentle breeze blew, and the water remained still.
The void seemed to stagnate in that moment, enveloped in azure brilliance.
"Hmm?"
Fang Xing even found that the void fluctuations and time fluctuations he had been sensing had become incredibly obscure and difficult to perceive...
In this world of gentle breeze, it seemed that only the Imperial Princess's comprehension of the Dao could be manifested, and all other Dao principles were repelled and suppressed.
"Mind Over Matter!"
Wu Qi exclaimed in anger, "Run..."
The so-called 'Mind Over Matter' was actually the ability to give birth to the Dao and create the world with principles, a capability only available to those who had comprehended Dao principles to the fifth stage.
With a single thought, other principles were suppressed, and unless one had also comprehended them to the fifth stage, even if they had some understanding, they would find it difficult to manifest them, as if their principles were sealed, leaving them at the mercy of others.
This was the terror of an Emperor's Son! Only an Emperor's Son could counter another Emperor's Son!
They were truly invincible within the same realm!
Furthermore, comprehending principles to this level meant that they were just one step away from completely understanding a single principle and advancing to the Celestial Immortal or Celestial Demon realm!
Alas, the comprehension of principles became increasingly difficult in the later stages.
The final step was as difficult as ascending to the heavens!
Whoosh!
Shi Qing used a bow and arrow, and her speed in drawing and shooting was incredibly fast.
Puff, puff, puff! With three arrows, the three fleeing cultivators from Boundless Mountain were embarrassingly headshot.
Their various secret techniques and coordination... without the aid of principles, their might plummeted, and even Shi Qing's casual arrows were impossible to defend against.
"Run! When encountering an enemy who can manifest Mind Over Matter and create a 'Dao Domain', the most important thing is to escape their domain!"
Wu Qi fled frantically while reminding Fang Xing, "As long as we escape the range of the domain, we can use the power of Dao principles again..."
At that time, he could have the black dragon carry him to safety!
Within the domain, although the perception of Dao fluctuations was blocked, it didn't mean that one couldn't use essence energy secret techniques.
On the contrary, these techniques could still be used as usual, but without the enhancement of Dao comprehension, their power would drastically decrease.
Only those techniques that didn't rely on Dao principles at all could maintain their normal effectiveness.
Within the domain, Fang Xing was definitely unable to use the teleportation technique unless he also raised his comprehension of the void Dao principle to the fifth level, reaching the 'Master' level of proficiency, and used his own void domain to suppress the opponent's.
Even so, under the influence of the Peach Deity's main body, teleportation would still be impossible!
"Black dragon, white ape... you two killed three princes, so please go and die."
Shi Qing's voice was soft and weak as she nocked another arrow.
Whoosh!
Streams of azure rule power descended, transforming into pale azure arrows.
Clearly, she was putting in extra effort against these two core members of Boundless Mountain.
Sizzle!
Two azure rule arrows appeared almost instantly in front of Fang Xing and the White Ape.
"Heaven-Shaking Stick!"
Wu Qi roared, and his black stick blurred into a continuous stream of stick shadows, finally condensing into a black line that precisely blocked the tip of the azure arrow.
Crack!
The void stagnated for a moment, and the black stick shattered instantly.
"I'm going to die!"
Wu Qi sighed inwardly, without much fear, but his will was boiling, seeking a glimmer of hope.
Unfortunately, under the Dao Domain, there was no chance of survival!
Roar!
In that instant, he heard a dragon's roar in his ear.
By the time Wu Qi regained his senses, he saw a thousand-meter-long black dragon coiled in the air, and on its dragon head, an azure arrow had snapped in half.
The black-red dragon spread its wings, and one of its wing membranes blocked in front of the White Ape, resembling a massive black shield, deflecting the azure arrow.
Rumble!
With just its physical might, it shattered the surrounding void, causing countless chaotic void currents to surge, but they became docile as water under the dragon's wings.
"You are the first... opponent who has made me go all out."
Fang Xing roared, flapped his wings, and instead of retreating, he advanced, his massive thousand-meter-long body pressing forward.
"What a formidable physique..."
Shi Qing sighed, her waist slender and graceful as she wielded her longbow.
On both sides of the bow, a moon blade appeared, transforming it into a close-combat weapon.
Her waist swayed gracefully, like a flexible bow, as she 'shot' the bow blade.
Whoosh!
Fang Xing's dragon claw descended, colliding with the moon blade on the bow, and he suddenly felt a twinge of pain.
Thud!
The moon blade's radiance flickered, directly slicing through his dragon scales, penetrating flesh and bone, and reaching the dragon's bones!
"Imperial Armament?"
Looking at the moon blade bow, Fang Xing's voice rumbled.
"Using an Imperial Armament is not a fair victory, and I apologize for that..."
Shi Qing apologized with her words, but her figure danced gracefully, and moon blades descended, instantly leaving Fang Xing's dragon body drenched in blood.
Her dance was light and beautiful, and every time she wielded the moon blade bow, it left a deep wound on Fang Xing's body, like a sprite dancing a deadly dance.
"Run!"
Fang Xing flicked his tail, flapped his wings, and his speed increased dramatically.
He grabbed the White Ape and flew a thousand miles away.
Today's battle made him realize that although he could hold his own against the Emperor's Son with his physique, he was ultimately no match.
If the other party didn't have an Imperial Armament, it would be easier to deal with, but with it, his physical advantage would be significantly reduced.
'And... a mere ninth-stage Mortal Realm cultivation can only unleash a tiny fraction of the Imperial Armament's power... otherwise, today would have been truly dangerous.'
Fang Xing flapped his wings, moving at an incredible speed, about to fly out of the Dao Domain.
Shi Qing didn't stop her dance, and her expression became more devout, like a female priestess dancing on an altar.
Streams of moonlight emerged, and behind her, a terrifying demonic beast's shadow appeared.
This demonic beast's body was hazy and indistinct, with three heads, and on the central panther head, there was only one vertical pupil.
At this moment, its vertical pupil glowed slightly, seemingly connected to Shi Qing's eyes, which had only whites, and it saw Fang Xing fleeing for his life!
"Using my body as a bow and my heart as an arrow!"
An invisible willpower gathered and transformed into an arrow, which Shi Qing shot.
Whoosh!
The will attack arrived instantly!
Fang Xing didn't even pause, flying out of the Dao Domain's range, then using the Time Law to increase his speed several times, quickly leaving the range of the Peach Deity Tree's influence, and teleporting away.
Behind.
Shi Qing's face was filled with astonishment, and she suddenly opened her cherry-like small mouth, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
If the demon race princes of the Azure Emperor Palace saw this scene, they would feel like the sky was falling.
When had the invincible Imperial Daughter Shi Qing been beaten to the point of spitting blood by a core member of Boundless Mountain?
"Willpower Defense Secret Technique?"
After spitting blood, Shi Qing's expression remained calm: "I didn't expect... that after going through so much, the willpower secret technique I obtained in the 'Cave World' would already be mastered by a disciple in Boundless Mountain..."
Her willpower attack secret technique would greatly affect even ninth-stage Essence Spirit Realm cultivators.
But not only was the black dragon unharmed, but the backlash of willpower even injured her, clearly indicating that he not only cultivated the willpower secret technique but also had a stronger willpower than her!
"Hehe... I didn't expect that either."
A flash of azure light, and the Peach Deity's youth appeared, and with just a wave of his hand, a strange three-colored immortal peach fell in front of Shi Qing.
"Peach Deity... are you going to break the contract?"
Shi Qing didn't accept the Peach Deity's offer, instead gripping the moon blade bow in her hand.
"That black dragon, I originally thought it was just physically strong, but I didn't expect its willpower to be so terrifying... It deceived me."
The Peach Deity didn't show any regret, simply stating: "Shi Qing, the most outstanding Imperial Daughter of the Azure Emperor Palace... are you willing to make a deal with me?"
