Chapter 139

"I... I didn't see it wrong, did I? That kid can actually fight the senior brother to this extent?""The senior brother, who has unleashed the explosive secret technique, still can't suppress that kid?" "Is this kid really just at the Tendons and Bones Realm?" ... All the martial artists watching the battle between Lu Qing and the burly man could not hide their inner shock. By now, under Lu Qing's full outburst, everyone could see that Lu Qing's cultivation level was indeed still at the Tendons and Bones Realm. seaʀᴄh thё NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. But precisely because of this, everyone's hearts were even more shocked. Because they couldn't imagine how Lu Qing managed to fight a martial arts master of the Internal Organs Realm to a standstill with a Tendons and Bones Realm cultivation. If it were only that his blade technique was at a high level, it could be explained by saying Lu Qing had an extraordinary talent in blade arts, grasping a realm far beyond ordinary blade users in advance. But cultivation is something real and tangible, without any room for trickery. Normally, no matter how strong a Tendons and Bones Realm is, it shouldn't be able to be a match for a grandmaster level expert at the Internal Organs Realm. The difference in cultivation alone means they are not on the same level. Yet here, Lu Qing broke common sense, fighting a martial arts master with a Tendons and Bones Realm cultivation to a draw. This left many martial artists not only shocked but also puzzled. "It's actually blade intent. Although it's just a hint of blade intent, it's enough to suppress Wang Cangyi, the senior disciple, in blade arts. But, what is with this boy's body? How can it be so strong, exploding for so long without losing momentum?" On the city gate, the young man in coarse clothes had a hint of strange energy in his eyes, observing the battle below. He was secretly shocked. He didn't expect that this boy, whom he had met once, had such terrifying martial arts talent. To be able to comprehend blade intent at the Tendons and Bones Realm stage, even if it's just a hint of blade intent, is still enough to defy the heavens. What he couldn't understand more was that Lu Qing's body was also unexpectedly strong, being able to fight the burly martial arts master for so long without falling behind. Even the true disciples of the top sects in Central State might find it difficult to achieve this. Perhaps only the heirs of those few mysterious places could do such monstrous things. The young man in coarse clothes moved his gaze to the side. He saw that Wang Cangyi's face had already turned ashen, his eyes gloomy, not knowing what he was thinking. He became wary, secretly on guard. "Old doctor, when did Brother Lu Qing's strength become so powerful?" By the ox cart, Mago asked stammeringly. He had always known that Lu Qing was very strong, not to be viewed as an ordinary Tendons and Bones Realm. In the unnamed valley, he had once forced back an Internal Organs Realm expert with one blade strike. But at that time, it was only because Lu Qing's blade technique was superb and caught the opponent by surprise. In a real fight, when facing the outburst of an Internal Organs Realm expert, he still had to avoid the sharp edge. How long had it been, and he could already fight an Internal Organs Realm grandmaster head-on without losing? This speed of strength growth was simply too frightening. "I don't know either." The old doctor shook his head, "I never interfere with A'Qing's cultivation, nor do I know when his strength reached this level." As for Wei Zian and Mrs. Wei on the side, they were already dumbfounded. They never thought that the usually gentle and mild Lu Qing would be so terrifying in combat. Just as everyone was shocked by this rare battle. The fight between Lu Qing and the burly man changed again. Clang!!! The two battle blades clashed once more. However, this time, the already scarred blades couldn't withstand the power of the two, and the blades shattered. Only the hilts with a small piece of the blade remained in their hands. "Not good!" Mago was startled, about to throw his long blade. But Lu Qing and the burly man tacitly threw away their hilts. Bare-handed, they charged at each other. "Come on!" "Just what I wanted!" The two were so excited that they decided to fight with their fists and feet again. Roar! This time, it was Lu Qing who took the initiative. He moved like a dragon and a tiger, every step shaking the solid ground. His blood and qi surged, faint tiger roars emanated from his body. In the blink of an eye, he reached the burly man and punched. With this punch, the surrounding air was completely disturbed, producing a whistling sound. The air on the fist couldn't disperse in time due to the rapid speed, condensing into an explosive air mass, carrying an extremely powerful force, and blasted towards the burly man! So fierce?! Seeing Lu Qing's ferocious punch, the burly man's eyelids twitched. He originally thought that after losing the blade, Lu Qing, bare-handed, would not be his match. After all, he had been training in the sect for many years. Besides his proudest blade technique, his fist and foot skills were also quite good. In a contest, even the third junior brother might not be able to surpass him. Although Lu Qing, as a young man, had unparalleled talent in blade arts, comprehending the blade realm of a grandmaster in advance. His fist and foot skills should be inferior. But now, feeling the momentum of Lu Qing's punch, the burly man realized he was wrong, very wrong. Lu Qing's fist technique was far superior to his! However, it was too late to realize this. In a flash, Lu Qing's fist reached him. Vaguely, the burly man instinctively felt that he couldn't retreat from this punch. If he retreated, the initiative would instantly be in Lu Qing's hands. With Lu Qing's mastery in fist techniques and his current unstoppable momentum. If he lost the initiative, it would be extremely difficult to regain it. He might not be able to turn the tables until he was defeated. To maintain the initiative, he had to take it head-on! In a flash, the burly man made his decision. Lu Qing's strength was slightly inferior to his. As long as he could withstand the attack, he would have a chance to counterattack when Lu Qing's momentum waned! With the decision made, the burly man steadied his horse stance, firmly stood his ground, and crossed his arms to block Lu Qing's fist. Boom!! Under the watchful eyes of the martial artists, Lu Qing's tiger-roaring punch, without any fancy tricks, smashed into the burly man's crossed arms. The immense force exploded instantly, twisting the surrounding atmosphere, making the figures of the combatants blurry. The crowd vaguely saw the burly man's figure retreat a step under Lu Qing's punch. But his stance wasn't broken, still firmly rooted! But it wasn't over! Seeing the burly man retreat, Lu Qing pressed forward, stepping forward, his shoes instantly tearing, the ground beneath his feet twisting like soft dough. Drawing strength from the ground, with a tiger's roar, Lu Qing punched again. The burly man had no choice but to block again. Boom!! This punch landed, and the force exploded, making the burly man retreat another step. Lu Qing stepped forward again and punched. Boom, boom, boom... Like this, every step the burly man took back, Lu Qing advanced with a punch. Finally, on the ninth punch, Lu Qing stopped, no longer attacking. The burly man also stood still, maintaining his defensive posture. At this point, both Lu Qing and the burly man were steaming, white mist swirling around them. This was the steam from sweat due to the high temperature generated by their powerful blood and qi. The ground around them was a mess, full of pits and hollows, no longer flat. "What is this fist technique?" Suddenly, the burly man asked. "Fierce Tiger Fist." Lu Qing replied. "Fierce Tiger Fist, a good name, fierce like a world-dominating tiger, worthy of a grandmaster-level fist technique!" "To be defeated by such a fist master, I have no complaints." The burly man finished speaking, and a mouthful of blood mist he couldn't suppress spurted out, his body falling backward. Under Lu Qing's continuous bombardment, his blood and qi had been scattered. His internal organs were severely injured, unable to fight any longer. Lu Qing looked at the fallen burly man and turned to leave. It wasn't that he didn't want to deliver a final blow, but after this fierce fight, his strength was also nearly exhausted. Moreover, the moment the burly man was defeated, he felt a faint killing intent lingering around him. It was a warning from Wang Cangyi. He was sure that if he dared to kill the burly man, Wang Cangyi would attack him without hesitation. At that time, whether he could kill the burly man or not, he didn't know. But the situation would undoubtedly become uncontrollable. No one knew what a Precelestial master who had lost his mind would do. Wow! Seeing the burly man fall and Lu Qing turn to leave. The martial artists watching couldn't suppress their shock any longer, and the crowd erupted. "Am I dreaming? That boy actually defeated a martial arts grandmaster?" "Tendons and Bones Realm defeating Internal Organs Realm perfection, can such a thing really happen?" "The boy's fist technique is also so formidable?" The martial artists couldn't believe their eyes, wondering if they were dreaming. As for the disciples of Tian Cang Sect, they were all disheartened, almost not believing their eyes: "Senior brother, lost?" "This boy, this boy..." On the city wall, the County Magistrate looked at Lu Qing's figure, wanting to say something. But his mouth trembled for a long time, unable to find words to express his shock. Even the young man in coarse clothes was slightly open-mouthed, somewhat losing composure. After a while, he exhaled deeply. "Indeed, heroes emerge from the youth. This boy probably qualifies for the Hidden Dragon List." "What? Zhiyue, you say he can make it onto the Hidden Dragon List?" The County Magistrate was shocked. "Why, do you think he doesn't qualify?" The young man in coarse clothes retorted. The County Magistrate looked at the fallen burly man, then reacted. "Indeed, with a Tendons and Bones Realm cultivation, defeating an Internal Organs Realm grandmaster head-on, such a record, if not qualifying for the Hidden Dragon List, would be a joke." On the side, Wang Cangyi, who had been sullen, became even more unsightly hearing their conversation. "What, Zhiyue, you want to put this person on the Hidden Dragon List?" "Whether he can be on the Hidden Dragon List is not for me to decide. But I will report this battle as it happened to the headquarters of Tianji Tower. Whether the boy qualifies for the Hidden Dragon List will be decided by the headquarters." The young man in coarse clothes smiled. But Wang Cangyi's face became even more grim hearing this. Once the young man reported this battle to Tianji Tower, the whole world would know that his disciple Wang Cangyi was defeated by an unknown Tendons and Bones Realm boy. The trouble was, if that boy made it onto the Hidden Dragon List, many powerful sects would likely extend an olive branch to him. At that time, it would be even harder for him to regain his reputation. Wang Cangyi's killing intent arose again. But seeing the calm face of the young man, he ultimately suppressed it. But in his heart, his desire for that treasure of the Wei family grew stronger. If he could get that treasure, breaking through to Precelestial in the future, why would he need to fear this small Tianji Tower and endure this humiliation? Anything that displeased him could be killed! Not to mention this little true disciple of Tianji Tower, even the master of Tianji Tower could be trampled to death! Thinking of this, Wang Cangyi's determination to seize the Wei family's treasure grew stronger, regardless of the cost. "Senior brother, senior brother!" The disciples of Tian Cang Sect ran to the burly man, checking his injuries. But the burly man only looked up at the sky. He was wrong, thinking that as long as he endured Lu Qing's attack, he could find a flaw to counterattack. But he didn't expect Lu Qing's stamina to be so long-lasting. In the end, it wasn't Lu Qing who was exhausted, but his secret technique reached its limit, his blood and qi scattered. What kind of monster is this boy, his stamina as a Tendons and Bones Realm is even more exaggerated than his Internal Organs Realm perfection. "Senior brother, are you alright? Don't scare us!" A disciple of Tian Cang Sect, seeing the burly man not responding, was almost crying. "I'm fine, just help me back." The burly man suddenly spoke weakly. Immediately, a disciple stepped forward to help him up. Just as they returned to the city gate, a jade bottle fell in front of the burly man. At the same time, a cold voice came from above: "Useless thing, take it!" "Master..." The burly man held the jade bottle, feeling ashamed. As for the disciples of Tian Cang Sect, hearing the second elder's cold voice, they shivered, not daring to speak. "Brother!" Unlike the disheartened disciples of Tian Cang Sect, on the ox cart side, Lu Qing received a hero's welcome. Xiao Yan saw Lu Qing return and immediately jumped on him. "How is it, isn't brother amazing?" Lu Qing caught her, smiling. "Amazing, very amazing, brother is the best!" Xiao Yan's little head nodded like a pecking chicken, her eyes full of stars. "Little doctor Lu, you're amazing!" Wei Zian also looked at Lu Qing with admiration. "Brother Lu Qing, you... you actually defeated a martial arts grandmaster?" Mago was so excited that his mouth was trembling. "As long as you come back safely, as long as you come back safely!" Mrs. Wei was relieved and happy. "A'Qing, are you hurt?" The old doctor asked. "No, but my strength is almost exhausted. Next, I'll have to rely on you, master." Lu Qing replied. "It's alright, you rest. Although I can't fight, I can protect you all." The old doctor, perhaps stimulated by his disciple's fight, was unusually spirited. "Then we'll rely on you, master." Lu Qing nodded, took out a jade bottle, poured out a Blood Replenishing and Qi-boosting Pill, and swallowed it to recover his strength. "Senior Wang, what do you plan to do next, still not willing to give up?" On the city wall, the young man in coarse clothes asked indifferently. "Give up? Haha, Wang Cangyi's dictionary has never had the word give up." Wang Cangyi laughed, "Zhiyue, if you want me to give up, you might as well persuade Wei Shanhai. As long as he is willing to hand over the thing, I will naturally leave." "So, Senior Wang is determined not to give up?" "Why should I give up? I still have dozens of disciples here, and that boy is exhausted. As long as I give the order, who can stop us?" The young man in coarse clothes was speechless. Indeed, that was his concern. As long as Wang Cangyi was shameless enough to let his disciples besiege Lu Qing and others, the old doctor would definitely intervene. But that would give Wang Cangyi an excuse to act. This place wasn't inside the city, so the restrictions were greatly weakened. Even if Wang Cangyi initiated a Precelestial-level battle, as long as he didn't deliberately slaughter ordinary martial artists, even the Sacred Mountain would find it difficult to deal with him. After all, in this world, strength still reigned supreme. Even the Sacred Mountain wouldn't punish a Precelestial master for a minor issue. Just as the young man in coarse clothes was anxiously thinking, suddenly, his expression changed, looking outside the city. On the side, Wang Cangyi's face lit up with joy. "Hahaha, Wei Shanhai, you dare to leave the city?" Before the words fell, Wang Cangyi's figure had disappeared from the city gate. The next moment, a terrifying Precelestial pressure descended upon the martial artists. Table of content
