Chapter 470: Chapter 292: Thousand-face Demon Venerable!_2 Chapter 470: Chapter 292: Thousand-face Demon Venerable!_2 Murong Yan took a deep breath, remained silent, and rushed forward at full speed.
Not to ntion that she had recently exchanged insights on Martial Arts with Chen Mu, from which she gained much understanding, even when she had little to do with Chen Mu in the past, she absolutely did not want anything to happen to her Sect mate Chen Mu.
However, at this mont she was hundreds of miles away from the County Governnt.
Even with her speed and the full-throttle Flying Escape of the Qian Heaven Domain, it would still take at least half an hour.
If it really was the worst-case scenario, with three Venerables from the Sky Demon Sect arriving, then Chen Mu would have to withstand the joint assault of three Great Demon Venerables for half an hour.
At this thought, Murong Yan’s heart sank even more.
But whether she could make it in ti or not, all she could do right now was to rush forward at full speed.
...
…
County Governnt.
The courtyard of Chen Mu.
The breeze floats gently, and the water flows gracefully.
Chen Mu and ng Danyun stood facing each other, only a few feet apart.
From ng Danyun, streams of Wind Blades and flowing water continuously rose, converging and changing, sweeping toward Chen Mu.
At the sa ti, she used her fingers as a sword, attacking Chen Mu.
Previously, while watching the discussion of Martial Arts between Chen Mu and Murong Yan from the side, she had many insights in her heart.
Given her relationship with Chen Mu, she would not hesitate, directly seeking his guidance to continue exploring the insights gained.
Crackle, crackle.
The streams of entwined Qi Force, upon nearing Chen Mu, were shattered by the vibrating Power of Heaven and Earth from the void and dissipated without a trace.
ng Danyun’s fingers ca together and she stabbed at Chen Mu.
At her fingertips flowed water and Wind Blades, converging and intertwining.
However, Chen Mu rely raised his right hand, caught a strand of the wind and water blade between his fingers, and snipped off the force of wind and water revolving around ng Danyun’s fingers.
Whoosh.
ng Danyun imdiately withdrew her fingers before they could be caught by Chen Mu, changing her move to a feint.
A stream of water transford into a lingering thread, suddenly wrapping around Chen Mu.
It seed soft and flexible, but in reality, it contained sharpness that could slice through anything.
Chen Mu’s expression remained unchanged.
With a casual flick of his sleeve, a breeze picked up the strand of water, continuously twirling it around, preventing it from getting close, rendering the contained cutting force useless.
Splash!
Seeing this, ng Danyun raised her hands and lightly brought them together in front of her.
An invisible force of water and wind rged into one stream, shooting forward and forming a beam of spearlike vigor in the void, appearing both rigid and soft.
Upon seeing this move, Chen Mu couldn’t help but nod slightly, remarking, “Sister ng’s mastery over the Artistic Conception of wind and water is indeed quite deep.
This strike, combining both hardness and softness, is indissoluble by ordinary ans and must be faced head-on.”
Having said that.
He also dissipated many fancy Qi Forces, reached out with a palm, and drew in the cluster of Vigorous force thrown by ng Danyun that contained penetrating power.
With a slight flicker of light, he made the cluster spin rapidly, eventually disappearing into nothingness.
ng Danyun, looking at the scene, finally stopped attacking and let out a breath, saying, “But I still can’t break through your thods.
Clearly, you only used the sa Artistic Conception of wind and water as I did.”
The Junior Brother in front of her had, a few years ago, sought her advice on controlling and cultivating the Artistic Conception of Xun Wind.
A few years later, he now surpassed her with just wind and water, not to ntion mastering the other Six Phases and combining Qiankun.
The inevitable result was self-doubt.
ng Danyun could only keep telling herself not to compare herself with Chen Mu.
In fact, being a true disciple of Spirit Profound Peak made her one of the outstanding figures of her generation in Yu State.
Not many could reach her level over several generations, it’s just that the disparity between people is truly imasurable.
“Sister ng, have you had any realizations?”
Chen Mu smiled, walked to the side, picked up the teacup from the table, and drank half of the cold tea.
ng Danyun nodded slightly, saying, “The Qiankun Eight Phases are about the cycle of life and death, as are Yin and Yang, and wind and water can also follow this principle to unfold.
There was always a slight flaw in the way my powers of wind and water rged, but now I seem to see a clear direction.”
“That’s good,”
Chen Mu nodded to ng Danyun, “As long as you have so understanding, step by step, you will eventually transform like the butterfly from the cocoon.
The level I’ve practiced to today is also due to the accumulation over ti, which at last led to a transformation.”
His words were sincere, as even the experience points from the system panel were accumulated through his own hard work, not obtained out of thin air.
“`
“Without accumulation of smaller steps, there is no journey of a thousand miles; without accumulation of smaller streams, there is no formation of rivers and oceans.”
ng Danyun naturally understood the principle of accumulation and was satisfied with her realization, “Thank you, Junior Brother, for the enlightennt.
I have benefited a lot today.
I will return now and reflect further on this.”
“Good.”
Chen Mu responded with a smile to ng Danyun.
Thus, ng Danyun turned and left, walking out.
But just as she stepped out of Chen Mu’s courtyard, she ca face to face with a yellow-faced man in official attire walking towards her.
They brushed past each other as the man headed toward Chen Mu’s residence.
ng Danyun’s gaze briefly paused on the yellow-faced man, taking him in and assuming he was a ssenger reporting to Chen Mu.
She did not give it much more thought, but after walking a few steps, she subconsciously stopped, feeling that sothing was amiss.
When she suddenly turned back to look,
Boom!!!
A sound like an explosion thundered from Chen Mu’s courtyard.
The power of heaven and earth within dozens of feet radius instantly beca chaotic.
The terrifying force of the cosmos turned tangible, bursting outwards in all directions.
It was almost visible to the naked eye; on the green stone walls of Chen Mu’s courtyard appeared nurous shattering patterns.
Eventually, all four walls, along with the buildings, collapsed piece by piece, accompanied by a raging windstorm.
“!!”
ng Danyun’s heart shook as she instinctively raised her hand to block the sweeping winds, turning her eyes towards the center of the scene.
There, in front of Chen Mu, was a pitch-black poisoned needle, seemingly imbued with terrible toxins and emanating a faint glow as it crept closer to Chen Mu’s neck.
But as it entered three feet in front of him, it was slowly ground to black powder and scattered!
But see,
Chen Mu still stood quietly in front of that stone table, with the yellow-faced man, who had just passed her by, opposite him at a re distance of a zhang.
However, the cosmos between them seed to split into two distinct halves.
From the yellow-faced man emanated, at so unknown ti, a ferocious and violent demonic aura.
It seed he had feigned reporting to Chen Mu to launch a surprise attack, which proved ineffective.
However, this terrifying demonic might spread and rose to such an extent that a re touch of it turned ng Danyun pale because it far surpassed the Sixth Rank.
Seventh Rank Demon Venerable!
This was a Seventh Rank Demon Venerable, boldly appearing in the County Governnt, attempting to assassinate Chen Mu!
“Sky Demon Sect Venerable…”
ng Danyun’s pupils contracted violently at this mont.
The yellow-faced man had just brushed past her, and she had completely failed to sense anything unusual.
A venerable of the Seventh Rank, with all his demonic power concealed without a trace, seed no different from a common governnt martial man.
That is to say, if he wanted to kill her, it would be a matter of re monts!
A Seventh Rank Demon Man had passed by so closely,
How could this not make ng Danyun’s skin crawl and her heart quake with fear?
Obviously,
His assassination attempt on Chen Mu had failed, and probably only Chen Mu could remain composed and handle himself so easily under the concealnt and ambush of a Seventh Rank Demon Man!
Chen Mu’s courtyard was within the Inner City County Governnt.
The sudden commotion undoubtedly alard the entire county office, as masses of figures rushed towards this side, only to stop dozens of feet away, their faces changing as they were deterred by the dreadful demonic might and the pressure of heaven and earth, unable to move closer, only able to gaze from afar!
“This…
is the Sky Demon Sect’s Demon Venerable?!”
“The Venerable of the Sky Demon Sect has appeared here?
How did he get in?”
Shen Lin and many others from the Seven Profound Sect were nearly all changing color at this point, their eyes filled with shock.
Encountering a Demon Venerable from the Sky Demon Sect in Ice State was not odd, but this was the Inner City County Governnt.
A Demon Venerable appeared out of the blue, making moves without prior signs, which was undoubtedly terrifying.
Looking at the situation in the middle of the scene, if the person being attacked weren’t Chen Mu but other Stewards or even Protectors, no one would have been able to withstand it and would inevitably be fatally hit before anyone could co to the rescue.
“Only he could master the art of concealing his presence to such an extent.
It must be him.”
ng Danyun’s gaze grew heavy.
Among the Demon Venerables of the Sky Demon Sect, there was only one who could quietly sneak into the County Governnt, passing her by without her noticing anything amiss—
Thousand-face Demon Venerable Sang Huai!
