Chapter 77 Swords Drawn and Bows Bent
Chapter Seventy-Seven
"Who do you think you are to demand I confess and submit to punishment? Do you dare wait for your fate to be dealt with?"
Watching Liu Qingyu reach out to grab him, Qinchuan's eyes flashed with a cold light as he raised his hand and slapped across: "Scram!"
"Smack!"
"Ahh..."
Accompanied by a crisp slap, Liu Qingyu was immediately sent flying sideways, subsequently landing heavily on the ground.
Liu Qingyu, clutching his swollen face, got up from the ground, first in a daze, then his face filled with disbelief: "You dare to hit me?"
He could never have imagined that with the Young Sect Master and elders nearby, Qinchuan would dare to resist and strike out at him!
The others around were also stunned, equally not expecting Qinchuan to dare to resist under such circumstances. Was he not afraid of being executed on the spot by the powerhouses of the Congyun Sect?!
Wu Shanhe had not expected Qinchuan to dare to resist, nor had he expected Liu Qingyu to be so vulnerable, getting slapped and sent flying back by a single strike. He instantly flew into a rage and kicked Liu Qingyu away: "Useless thing, you can't even handle an ant in the Condensed Truth Realm, get lost!"
Then his gaze fell on Qinchuan, and his eyes were frosty: "Ignorant fool, you dare to be presumptuous before the Young Sect Master with your mere Condensed Truth Realm cultivation. You're seeking death!"
As his words fell, his figure suddenly moved, taking personal action and striking towards Qinchuan with a palm.
"The Young Sect Master must not!"
Elder Yuan, seeing the Young Sect Master personally take action, immediately turned pale and could not care that Qinchuan had previously been disrespectful to the founding master of their Congyun Sect. He shouted in alarm, and at the same time, his figure shimmered, trying to stop Wu Shanhe.
However, as soon as he moved, Elder Cheng beside him let out a cold snort, displayed his movement technique, and immediately blocked Elder Yuan: "Humph, Elder Yuan, this boy not only stealthily learned our Congyun Sect's martial skills, but also disrespected our founding master. You still want to protect him? Step back, do not make mistakes!"
"You..."
Seeing Elder Cheng suppressing him with the founding master, Elder Yuan immediately changed expressions, saying angrily: "This young man has extraordinary talent and root bone. If we can't recruit him into our Congyun Sect, it will be our loss!"
"Extraordinary talent? Humph, if his talent were truly that monstrous, why didn't he go to the Taixuan Sect instead of joining our Congyun Sect?"
"Moreover, no matter how high his talent is, does high talent allow him to disrespect the founding master? Elder Yuan, is that what you mean?"
Elder Cheng said indifferently.
He didn't believe Qinchuan's talent was that high. If he truly had such high caliber talent, why didn't he join stronger sects within Shanhe County like the Taixuan Sect or the other major sects, but came to the declining Congyun Sect?
Over the years, which of the true top talents were willing to give up joining strong and dominant sects like Taixuan Sect and choose to join their Congyun Sect instead?
As for the strength of Qinchuan's Dao Heart showcased this time, it was indeed firm enough to move and shock him, but without powerful talent, just having a firm Dao Heart merely presented the possibility of becoming a great success eventually, not a certainty of growth.
Furthermore, now it was the Young Sect Master dealing with Qinchuan; he was the Young Sect Master's man, and naturally, he had to stand on the side of the Young Sect Master at this moment.
"You!"
Hearing Elder Cheng's words, Elder Yuan was immediately infuriated. His expressions shifted rapidly. Not wanting to get into a stalemate with Elder Cheng, he immediately went up the mountain to seek the Sect Master's aid!
Because his strength was similar to Elder Cheng's, with Elder Cheng blocking him, he had no chance whatsoever of stopping the Young Sect Master from dealing with Qinchuan.
Elder Cheng watched Elder Yuan ride the rainbow away, his brows furrowed, but he did not stop him. By the time the latter would return, the fate of this place would be decided.
He turned to look at Wu Shanhe, feeling the cultivation aura of the early stage of the Third Layer of the Meridian Opening Realm emanating from Wu Shanhe, and immediately a smile spread across his face. Stroking his beard, he nodded in praise and said, "As expected of the Young Sect Master, to have already cultivated to the early stage of the Third Layer of the Meridian Opening Realm, and even the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Palm, you have also cultivated it to the Great Achievement Realm!"
At this moment, the martial skill that Wu Shanhe was displaying turned out to be the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Palm as well, but the momentum was much stronger than that of Zhuo Bufan's demonstration earlier.
His own cultivation level was a whole realm higher than Zhuo Bufan's. Combined with his own extraordinary comprehension, his mastery over the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Palm was more profound than Zhuo Bufan's, making the power he displayed naturally stronger.
Glancing at Qinchuan, Elder Cheng shook his head. In his opinion, with Qinchuan's mere peak Fourth Layer of the Condensed Truth Realm, there was no way he could withstand Wu Shanhe's palm strike. If he forcibly resisted, he would undoubtedly die!
However, facing Wu Shanhe's palm, there was not a hint of panic or fear in Qinchuan's eyes.
"Get lost!"
He protected Qin Xiaoyu behind him and then flipped his hand with a palm strike thundering towards Wu Shanhe's palm.
It turned out to be the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies Palm as well!
Only, in Qinchuan's palm, there was an air of invincibility!
His execution was even more composed and nimble than Wu Shanhe's, and the integration of the invincible spirit made this palm truly possess an unstoppable force sweeping across the eight desolates and six harmonies!
"Snap!"
The palm imprints of the two clashed in an instant, and the two gushes of True Qi exploded instantly, making a booming sound.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
The next instant.
In the disbelieving stares of everyone. Continue reading on empire
A figure suddenly retreated backward, his feet plowing two trenches in the ground, retreating a good twenty to thirty feet before finally stabilizing his figure!
And this figure, who was shockingly repulsed, was not the expected Qinchuan but Wu Shanhe!
"What?!"
Elder Cheng, who was just stroking his beard, was so startled that he plucked a bunch of whiskers from his chin. Then, wincing in pain, he inhaled sharply, swiftly rubbing his chin. However, his gaze stayed fixed on Wu Shanhe, who had been sent reeling by Qinchuan's palm, then shifted to Qinchuan, who stood tall and unshakable like an old pine tree, his eyes full of incredulity.
Just moments ago, he had been silently admiring Wu Shanhe's outstanding talent and strength, and was of the opinion that Qinchuan simply could not withstand Wu Shanhe's palm. A forceful defense would only mean certain death.
But the next moment, not only did Qinchuan block Wu Shanhe's palm head-on, he even forced Wu Shanhe back!
The exact opposite of his assumption!
It was not just him, others around him including Liu Qingyu, Zhou Song, other Congyun Sect disciples, and the candidates were all surprised that the one being repulsed turned out to be Wu Shanhe.
Even Wu Shanhe himself was staring wide-eyed at this moment, full of disbelief.
"Impossible. Although I didn't use my full strength in that palm, it's not something a mere ant at the peak Fourth Layer of the Condensed Truth Realm can withstand. How can your strength be so strong?!"
Wu Shanhe stabilized his figure and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "And you have even grasped the invincible spirit?!"
Qinchuan, however, just raised an eyebrow in response, "The Congyun Sect's Young Sect Master only has this much skill? True Qi of such poor quality and a foundation so flimsy— if Wu Yong knew he had a successor like you, his fiery temperament would likely cause him to press down the lid of his coffin with such force that it wouldn't hold him!"
