Up close, Yun Wuyue’s lovely face was just before his eyes.
One must admit, it was a truly perfect face, so flawless that even with his Void Eye, Qing Yu found not a single blemish upon it.
’So beautiful!’
Qing Yu sighed in his heart before he smashed his palm down.
Beauty like this could make Qing Yu exclaim, but it could not sway his resolve.
"Boom—"
His thought of wanton destruction didn’t materialize, as Yun Wuyue’s "Taiyin Qi Gathering" shifted targets and collided with the oncoming palm.
The mid-course changed "Taiyin Qi Gathering" couldn’t match "Shocking Hundred Miles," but it still managed to block the palm, saving the beauty from being quoted as such.
The impact of the palm strikes pushed Yun Wuyue back three ters before Qing Yu forcefully pulled her back with the Floating Ribbon wrapped around his hand, crashing her directly into the long sword in his right hand.
Left with no choice, Yun Wuyue abandoned the Floating Ribbon and retreated gracefully.
Qing Yu had dissolved the three-person ambush; the three from the Demonic Path had not managed to injure Qing Yu but instead had each suffered injuries themselves, with the most seriously hurt Xiang Haorang still lying on the ground, unable to get up.
Dominating the fight, Qing Yu naturally didn’t forget to pursue victory by eliminating the enemy.
However, just then, several cracks appeared on the Stone Hall’s door.
Following that, the cracks swiftly expanded, the Stone Gate collapsed, and a figure crashed into the Stone Hall.
"Shi Yi?"
Qing Yu looked at the monk who had flown backwards into the Stone Hall in astonishnt. It seed he had been hit against the door, then subsequent attacks had forcibly sent him crashing through it. After uttering a few vague words, the monk had perished.
Those like Qing Yu who were fighting inside the hall had been so engrossed in their battle that they had forgotten the reason why the Stone Hall’s door, despite the fierce, chaotic attacks from Demon Young Master and the others earlier, still stood resiliently in place was because Qiao Baixuan had diverted the entire Ziwei Constellation Great Formation’s Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi to protect it.
As Qiao Baixuan continued to draw Primordial Energy for his own use, the door’s protective strength plumted in a straight line. It was only because Yuan Jianyi and the Demon Young Master had been fighting outside all along that they hadn’t imdiately noticed the abnormality of the door.
But with Qiao Baixuan’s departure, the Great Formation was completely unmanned, and the Stone Gate lost its support, becoming just an ordinary door.
As the door shattered, the combatants from outside began to enter one after another. The first to enter the Stone Hall were the three who were embroiled in the lee outside: Yuan Jianyi, the Demon Young Master, and an unidentified monk.
Yuan Jianyi had no sword in hand at the mont because his iron sword had broken again. His white clothes were ripped in several places, but his skin appeared uninjured through the torn fabric, revealing that Yuan Jianyi had suffered no real harm. Always seen with a sword, Yuan Jianyi’s Body Refinent Martial Arts was certainly not weak.
After all, Yuan Jianyi’s Sword Qi was too fierce; without practicing Body Refining Martial Arts, he would likely be the first to be riddled like a hornet’s nest by the brutally sharp Sword Qi—at his own hand.
In this world, Yuan Jianyi joined his fingers as if holding a sword, spreading Sword Qi while fighting in the fray with the Demon Young Master and the unknown monk.
anwhile, the Demon Young Master seed to have two upper bodies, one for the left and one for the right, casting thousands of hand shadows with Illusionary Heavenly Demon Hand, deflecting moves and looking for opportunities to attack at the sa ti.
The unidentified monk was extrely rigid in his techniques, favoring wide and forceful moves but occasionally incorporating so softer, more unpredictable variations, proving to be an even match for both Yuan Jianyi and the Demon Young Master.
Three people entered the Stone Hall and discovered the situation inside. The Demon Young Master was the first to break away from the battle group, transforming into a black shadow, darting to Yun Wuyue’s side. He reached out to help the severely injured Yun Wuyue but was smoothly dodged without a sound.
The unknown monk, seeing the Demon Young Master leave the battle group, also leaped away. Yuan Jianyi, with his battle spirit high, wanted to pursue, but seeing a group of monks surround the lone monk, he slightly suppressed his desire to fight and t up with the Sword Tao Palace Disciples who had followed him into the Stone Hall.
"Amitabha, may I ask if Master would be willing to lend this poor monk the book within your waist for a look?" The unknown monk was the first to spot the "Heavenly Calculation and Earthly asurent" at Qing Yu’s waist and took the initiative to ask.
"A book?"
"Where is it?"
Everyone present was there to compete for the Heavenly Calculation Inheritance, so they were extrely sensitive to items that recorded information like books, and imdiately they followed the monk’s gaze.
"Gong Ziyu?"
"It’s Gong Ziyu."
Everyone was shocked by this discovery. Many had never expected Gong Ziyu to have entered, and it seed, from the circumstances, that Gong Ziyu had beco the first person to possess the Heavenly Calculation Inheritance.
However, being the first to claim it did not guarantee one would be the final victor, especially when that person was Gong Ziyu, whose reputation was less than stellar.
"Gong Ziyu, hand over the Heavenly Calculation Inheritance!" The first to jump out was Xiao Chengye, whom Qing Yu glanced at. This fellow really never learned his lesson, always the first to stick his neck out.
But his timing this ti wasn’t bad. Gong Ziyu, as the Dragon Chief of the currently most active assassin organization in the worldly society, the Azure Dragon Association, was notorious. Apart from demonic people, the other righteous ones present all had a poor opinion of him.
Yuan Jianyi and the other Sword Tao Palace Disciples held no ill feelings towards Qing Yu, but in Yuan Jianyi’s eyes, there was a thick sense of the longing for battle, "Are you Gong Ziyu?"
Unlike the others, Yuan Jianyi knew who had entered the Stone Hall first. Qing Yu was currently only wearing a mask; his clothing hadn’t changed, and he was still carrying a Sword Box on his back, which made him easy to recognize.
"Why is Brother Yuan looking at like this?" Qing Yu let out a deep chuckle and asked.
"I want to fight you."
Hmm, that was a very Yuan Jianyi reason. Qing Yu curled his lips; he too was curious to witness Yuan Jianyi’s strength without a sword, but the current situation was sowhat prohibitive.
Because the righteous people weren’t on the sa side as him, nor were the demonic people. Didn’t he just knock down those from the Demon Path? The most severely injured among them was still lying on the ground, clutching his broken leg, with a hate-filled face staring at Qing Yu.
And there were also people fanning the flas.
"Amitabha, Master Yu, you have committed many murders. It would be better to hand over the Heavenly Calculation Inheritance and co with this poor monk. I will recite scriptures for seven days on your behalf to dissolve your malevolent energy," spoke the unknown monk once again.
"May I ask for the master’s Buddhist na?" Qing Yu looked at the monk with interest.
"This poor monk’s Buddhist na is Kong Hai."
"Master Kong Hai, I wonder when your Esoteric Sect entered the Central Plains. The disciples recruited by Shi Yi, wouldn’t happen to all be from your Esoteric Sect, would they?" Qing Yu said with a smile.
The monk who practiced the Esoteric Martial Arts that Qing Yu had encountered before was also among the crowd behind Monk Kong Hai, together with other monks supporting Kong Hai.
Moreover, Shi Yi, a disciple of the Zen Sect Ancestral Court, was forcibly smashed into the Stone Hall with great rigid force, and the few words he uttered before dying—he couldn’t make a sound due to his serious injuries—but Qing Yu didn’t need to rely on his hearing to understand people, he was all about reading.
If he wasn’t mistaken, the last few words Shi Yi said before he died should include the words "Esoteric Sect."
