Chapter 193: Chapter 192: Heavenly Desolate Immortal Method_1
Lu Yang has such a formidable reputation, it isn’t just the newcomers wishing to make their mark in this competition who are in his shadows, even the fame of Yan Fei, the successor of the Sect Master, is eclipsed by him.
He pretended to be a ginseng fruit, fooling everyone. Subsequently, wielding his Demon Sword, he struck fear into everyone’s hearts. No one knew how many digits the number in his palm held, but it was definitely certain that it was a terrifying number.
Meng Jingzhou is truly capable, unafraid of Lu Yang’s formidable reputation.
“Heh, I hear your Demon Sword kills at first sight of blood. If that’s true, I just need to avoid getting hurt.”
Lu Yang raised an eyebrow, “You talk big, state your name!”
“Meng Jingzhou!”
“Ah, so it’s you. I’ve heard of your matchless prowess at Foundation Establishment Stage and your impeccable body refining skills that leave many body cultivators in awe!”
Meng Jingzhou snorted coldly, “You’re not too bad yourself, Lu Yang, the Sea of Blood Sword Demon. Your fearsome name is enough to hush a child’s crying. Everyone says your strength surpasses that of Yan Fei, is this true or false?”
“Try and find out!”
“Then let’s try!”
The battle between the two potential winners drew not only the attention of the hidden competitive participants but also the higher-ups of the Eternity Sect who were curious to know, out of the two, who would turn out to be superior?
Would it be the crafty and cunning Lu Yang or the upright Meng Jingzhou?
The Master and Vice Leader were secretly twitching. If they hadn’t known beforehand that these two were in cahoots, they would have actually believed that the two were strangers.
They indeed play their parts convincingly.
Finally, the Vice Leader Jin had to concede that the Master had a keen eye — and it’s no wonder that one was said to be a natural demon, and the other was said to be akin to a demon reincarnate.
If someone were to say that these two were moles put by the Righteous Path, he wouldn’t believe it.
Oh right, there was also Man Gu.
Yan Fei, who was hidden among the trees, watched the two do battle, preparing himself as if he were about to face a great enemy. Both of these individuals could be his rivals — more threatening than the dead Monk of Wine and Meat and Gu Zha.
Lu Yang wielded his sword like a sabre, making his sabre techniques unstoppable. Meng Jingzhou’s body refining skills were impeccable, leaving no room for defects. The minute they made a move, they could even challenge those at the Golden Core Stage.
The participants watched with bated breath, deeming the two to be monsters.
In the end, Lu Yang had the upper hand and defeated Meng Jingzhou.
Knowing he was outmatched, Meng Jingzhou retreated before he could get hurt. Everyone sighed in disappointment — if Meng Jingzhou had been injured, they could have all attacked him at once.
By killing Gu Zha and the Monk of Wine and Meat, and defeating Meng Jingzhou, Lu Yang’s fame reached its peak, unrivaled by anyone else.
Lu Yang once again demonstrated his sabre skills, killing countless contestants. Even Man Gu, who never knew what fear was, fled far away from Lu Yang upon seeing him, refusing to engage him in a direct confrontation.
Just when everyone assumed Lu Yang would emerge as the most powerful competitor, Meng Jingzhou returned to the fight.
Meng Jingzhou appeared vibrant and unfazed by his previous defeat.
“Lu Yang, let’s battle again!”
Lu Yang sneered, “You incompetent warrior, do you still dare to mention fighting to me? Die!”
As he swung his Demon Sword down with massive force, intending to split Meng Jingzhou into two, the crowd gasped— this was an all-out attack from the start!
Last time Meng Jingzhou lost because of this move!
Just when the crowd thought that one attack would settle the match, Meng Jingzhou went against his usual manner and blocked the blow.
Lu Yang realized Meng Jingzhou was different, he put away his arrogant demeanor and fought with all his strength.
The power of Meng Jingzhou surged compared to last time, and he fought toe to toe with Lu Yang.
“Huff…huff… seems like you’ve encountered an extraordinary opportunity!” Lu Yang suddenly came to a realization— Meng Jingzhou had grown stronger and there was only this one explanation.
This fight gave Meng Jingzhou great confidence, “Not bad, I’ve just entered the door and my strength has already surged. It’s worthy of being Six Unions…”
Realizing he’d made a slip of the tongue, Meng Jingzhou quickly shut his mouth.
Listening to Meng Jingzhou’s incomplete sentence, Man Gu fell into deep thought, murmuring to himself, “Six Unions? Could it be, the legendary ‘The Immortal Skill of Six Unions and Eight Wastes’?!”
Everyone quickly pressed Man Gu for information about the technique, but instead of answering, Man Gu fled.
“‘The Immortal Skill of Six Unions and Eight Wastes,’ could it be the legacy of Immortal Eternity?” Everyone whispered among themselves. The idea was hard to resist when the word ‘Immortal’ was in the technique.
The fight between Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou ended in a draw. Both of them knew they wouldn’t be able to determine a winner if the fight continued, so in silent agreement, they departed.
After disappearing for a full day, Meng Jingzhou reappeared with an even more powerful aura than before.
He went straight for Lu Yang, who was wearing his cloak.
To everyone’s surprise, Meng Jingzhou’s strength had surged again, allowing him to defeat Lu Yang!
The Heavenly Desolate Immortal Method was truly fearsome!
“Die!” Meng Jingzhou shouted, his palm piercing through Lu Yang’s chest.
Blood gushed from Lu Yang’s mouth, his life-force draining quickly.
As tough as Lu Yang was, he wouldn’t die instantly, but his death was now a foregone conclusion, and nothing could change it.
“Haha, well-done, Meng Jingzhou. You managed to gain the biggest opportunity!”
Lu Yang’s face twisted into a contortion of bitterness, likely unwilling to die like this.
He took out an old book from his bosom, and at the sight of it, Meng Jingzhou’s pupils constricted.
“How can the Immortal Method be with you? You stole the Immortal Method while we were fighting!”
There was an uproar among the crowd. Lu Yang had stolen the Immortal Method during the fight. What kind of trick was this? Was it the legendary art of the empty-handed thief?
Immediately after, everyone’s mind started racing. The Immortal Method was in the dying Lu Yang’s hands, didn’t it mean that anyone could possibly obtain the Immortal Method?
As blood gushed from his mouth, Lu Yang laughed, “It’s just a pity that I was fated to steal the Immortal Method but had no chance to cultivate it.”
“If that’s the case, then I’ll reveal the Immortal Method and see what advantages you, Meng Jingzhou, still hold!”
Lu Yang tossed out the Immortal Method, using the blood as words, he formed the full content of the Immortal Method in mid-air!
An enormous opportunity was handed to them!
Meng Jingzhou was furious and quickly scattered the blood characters, preventing the Immortal Method from spreading.
But it was too late, everyone were cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage and had photographic memory. One glance is all it took for them to remember the entire content.
Lu Yang laughed heartily and drew his last breath.
Meng Jingzhou was livid, but there was nothing he could do.
Everyone dispersed, trying to find a safe place to cultivate the Immortal Method.
“Why am I not getting stronger after cultivating the technique?” Someone wondered. Didn’t Meng Jingzhou become much stronger after using it?
“Did I cultivate it wrong?”
Hidden in the dense forest, Lu Yang and the other two gathered together, closing their eyes and sensing everyone’s location.
This was not an Immortal Method at all, but rather a tracking technique. As long as someone cultivated it, Lu Yang and the others could discern their locations.
Now, everyone had hidden separately, making it the perfect opportunity to strike them one by one!
The three of them moved together, killing each contestant they encountered from the nearest to the farthest, and the number of their imprints escalated rapidly.
Yan Fei, who had not started cultivating yet, felt something was amiss, so he found Lu Yang’s lifeless body, uncovered the hood, and it turned out to be the bald-headed Lu Yang.
An avatar of the Bodhi tree!
Everything was a hoax!
He quickly judged, “Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou are in cahoots!”
“There’s no such thing as ‘The Immortal Skill of Six Unions and Eight Wastes.’ Man Gu is also with them!”
…
In the distance, the Sect Master, who saw everything, wore an odd expression.
Even he, as the head of the Demon Path, thought that these three were deceitful.
…
Inside the Spiritual Space, Fairy Eternity saw that the Eldest Senior Sister was lost in thought and asked curiously, “What are you thinking about?”
Yun Zhi sighed, “I’m wondering, are these three really not going to get beaten to death?”
Yun Zhi wasn’t worried about whether Lu Yang and the others could win the championship. What she was concerned about now was whether they would get beaten to death before the championship ended.
