chapter 230: defeated in public once meng zhang went all out, zhao jiudou clearly felt the immense pressure. the "tangling silk soft sword technique" was originally a top-secret sword technique of the taiyi sect. even during the heyday of the taiyi sect, it was considered a superior sword technique. meng zhang, with his exceptional talent, had immersed himself in swordsmanship for many years and had long perfected this sword technique to an extraordinary level. especially after reaching the foundation building stage, he gradually discovered the true power of this sword technique. countless white shadows danced in the air as the white silk covered the sky, forcing zhao jiudou's "bone blade sword" to retreat repeatedly. the "tangling silk soft sword" took advantage of the situation and pursued, unleashing a myriad of sword shadows that almost completely enveloped zhao jiudou's body. zhao jiudou used his "bone blade sword" to defend from left to right while swiftly moving his body, dodging and barely withstanding meng zhang's attacks. zhao jiudou was secretly astonished, as he didn't expect meng zhang to be so formidable. back when zhao jiudou was at the refining qi stage, he had clashed with meng zhang twice, but neither side emerged victorious. due to various reasons, they had to settle with a draw. zhao jiudou was full of confidence after joining the flying swan sect, thinking that his strength had greatly improved and that he could openly defeat meng zhang, his old rival, to regain his lost pride. unexpectedly, while he was making progress, his opponent was progressing even faster. of course, even though zhao jiudou was temporarily at a disadvantage, he still had hidden aces up his sleeve, believing that he could turn the tables.̃øv€lß1n. in mid-air, zhao jiudou flew at high speed, evading the attacks of flying swords while searching for an opportunity to strike. when he and meng zhang passed by each other, a flying sword suddenly flew out from behind him and slashed toward meng zhang's back. meng zhang's divine consciousness extended further than zhao jiudou's, capturing everything that happened behind him. being a master of the "dual sword style" himself, meng zhang didn't fear zhao jiudou's amateurish dual sword techniques. not just any two flying swords could be considered the "dual sword style"; they needed a special sword technique to coordinate seamlessly without interfering with each other. meng zhang feigned a bit of panic, pointing with one hand, and the "tangling silk soft sword," which had been entangled with the "bone blade sword," detached from the entanglement and flew towards the flying sword attacking his back. seeing this, zhao jiudou thought that meng zhang panicked when the flying sword approached, leading to an incorrect choice. seizing the opportunity, zhao jiudou used his "bone blade sword" to attack meng zhang. without the obstruction of the "tangling silk soft sword," the "bone blade sword" flew almost unhindered toward meng zhang. just as the "bone blade sword" was about to strike him, meng zhang took out the "golden crow lantern" that he had prepared long ago and activated the solar true qi within his body to the fullest extent. a faint shadow of a three-legged golden crow appeared on the "golden crow lantern," and a tremendously scorching flame surged directly toward the oncoming "bone blade sword." guang hongdaoist made a gesture, and a stream of qi supported the "bone blade sword," placing it in zhao jiudou's hand. in truth, zhao jiudou's injuries were not severe, but guang hongdaoist was concerned for his safety and stopped him from continuing the fight. with a bit of self-awareness, zhao jiudou knew that he had indeed lost today's battle. he received the "bone blade sword," put away the other flying sword, and without saying a word, he flew away in front of everyone, feeling utterly humiliated. guang hongdaoist looked at zhao jiudou's departing figure and shouted loudly, "the outcome of today's battle is decided. from now on, both sides must not continue to engage in conflict. the ownership of fuzhao valley shall not be questioned by anyone again." in the final moment, guang hongdaoist managed to remain fair and didn't favor zhao jiudou. meng zhang's victory over the flying swan sect disciple zhao jiudou undoubtedly boosted his reputation. from now on, it seemed that no one would dare to underestimate him. jin qigu flew to meng zhang's side and congratulated him. everyone gathered together and started chatting. they were all dissatisfied with zhao jiudou's behavior. meng zhang, being young and having not been in the foundation building stage for long, displayed such outstanding combat strength, garnering admiration from everyone. in his usual modest manner, meng zhang actively changed the topic to divert attention away from himself. after a while of chatting, meng zhang took the initiative to bring up the "lesser foundation building pill." almost everyone became interested in this topic and turned their gazes to gu tanghai. it had been a while since they obtained the pill formula, and they were curious about their progress in researching and refining the pill. had they successfully produced the pill yet?
