30: One strike breaks through divine power

"Option One: Ninja Turtle. Ignore Xiao Changjing's challenge and disregard Chu Yuer."

"Scenario: You don't accept the challenge and return to Emperor Mountain to continue Cultivating, making Chu Yuer extremely angry..."

"She wants to retrieve the ancient Jade Slip, so she can only force you to act, frequently challenging you at Emperor Mountain..."

"Xiao Changjing likes Chu Yuer. Your making Chu Yuer unhappy enrages him. He spends Spirit Stones to hire internet trolls to spread rumors about you everywhere, claiming you defiled someone and disowned them after the fact..."

"He also has people spread rumors that you are a coward, timid as a mouse, and unworthy of the True Disciple title."

"Reward: Emperor Grade 'Gou' Character Seal, Saint Grade Turtle Fist."

"Option Two: A King Cannot Be Humiliated. Accept Xiao Changjing's challenge, forcefully suppress him, and display your might."

"Scenario: You defeat Xiao Changjing, shocking the entire audience, gaining more fans, and becoming the dream of nine hundred million maidens."

"From then on, you become the object of many inner female Disciples' confidences during long nights."

"Someone discovers a business opportunity and starts creating fan art of you. Your various muscular images sell out in the academy."

"And Chu Yuer, witnessing your power, significantly curbs her arrogant demeanor and no longer dares to fight you at the same Realm."

"She expresses her desire to retrieve the ancient Jade Slip in a subtle tone, stating that she can exchange it for something."

"Reward: A wisp of primal chaos qi, a Grand Dao Origin Crystal, Emperor Grade Heavenly Demon Fist."

"Please choose!"

"Option Two!"

Qin Wushang made his choice directly!

Leaving aside the rewards, just Xiao Changjing's actions in Option One made him very displeased.

This cannot be chosen!

Moreover, he seemed to be able to use this ancient Jade Slip to threaten Chu Yuer a bit.

"Senior Brother Qin! You're not really scared, are you?"

Qin Wushang had not spoken for a long time, and Xiao Changjing raised an eyebrow.

If he didn't accept, he truly had no way to deal with Qin Wushang... If he just returned to Emperor Mountain, even if he wanted to secretly plot, like assassination or something, it would be impossible.

"What is there to fear?"

"This true disciple's dictionary of life does not contain the word 'fear'. I just don't know if, after you Seal your Dao Palace, you'll be lying on the ground, unable to get up."

Qin Wushang said disdainfully.

He couldn't defeat Nirvana Realm with Grotto-Heaven, but Grotto-Heaven against Grotto-Heaven, he had nothing to fear!

"Come fight!"

"Rumble!"

Xiao Changjing shouted, no longer engaging in verbal sparring.

He formed hand Seals, directly Sealing his Dao Palace in front of everyone.

"Buzz!"

In an instant, nine dazzling Grotto-Heavens appeared behind him, extremely blinding.

"Come! Open your Grotto-Heavens!"

"Otherwise, you won't have any chance to strike!"

Xiao Changjing roared!

He was incredibly arrogant, and in his mind, he had already involuntarily imagined himself suppressing the Prodigy famous throughout the academy, and thus becoming famous himself.

Chu Yuer, seeing him defeat Qin Wushang, would fall into his embrace and devote herself to him.

He would win the beauty, and the Xiao family would form a marriage alliance with the Tianwu Royal Estate, soaring to the sky.

But such a fantasy was interrupted by Qin Wushang's words, filled with disdain.

"This true disciple is afraid that opening my Grotto-Heavens would scare you to death."

Qin Wushang said disdainfully.

He took a step, completely leaving the range of Emperor Mountain!

All the surrounding Disciples scattered at the fastest speed, clearing a space for the two to battle.

"Senior Brother Qin's strength isn't much, but his boasts are immense, enough to suffocate people!"

Xiao Changjing coldly snorted.

He had nine Grotto-Heavens and was a Sacred Body. Even with his Dao Palace Sealed, he could still use Divine Abilities.

With Divine Abilities, he was almost invincible!

"Could it be that three Grotto-Heavens are too embarrassing to display?"

He added another sentence.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, a terrifying aura surged, and Qin Wushang's figure slowly floated up.

Behind him, Ten Great Grotto-Heavens shone, like a sea of stars, dazzling and blinding.

At this moment, everyone's eyes widened!

Too dazzling!

The Ten Great Grotto-Heavens, each one was many times larger than Xiao Changjing's!

At first glance!

It was like comparing a ping-pong ball to a basketball!

"This is impossible!!!"

Xiao Changjing exclaimed.

How many days had it been? Less than three days, right!

He had actually gone from three Grotto-Heavens to Ten Great Grotto-Heavens, and they were such massive Grotto-Heaven worlds!

"Oh my goodness... Is this what a Prodigy is?"

"Less than three days! Opening Ten Great Grotto-Heavens! Where in the world did this Prodigy come from!"

"The potential of a Great Emperor! Master didn't lie to me, he truly has the potential of a Great Emperor!"

"Qin the Monster truly has the potential of a Great Emperor!"

Everyone was shocked, unable to believe it!

Some of them present took a month, or even two months, just to open one Grotto-Heaven!

And Qin Wushang, in less than three days, directly opened Ten Great Grotto-Heavens!

"Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo... Is this the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo you spoke of? It's actually so terrifying!"

In the crowd, Ye Chen was astonished watching this scene.

"I told you! You are not people from the same world!"

"You must avoid his Sharpness (sharpness/edge)!"

The artifact spirit of the heaven swallowing pagoda said again.

"No! The stronger the opponent, the more interesting the challenge! I even want to fight him at the same Realm!"

Ye Chen shook his head, his Battle Intent soaring!

The struggle for the Grand Dao is like sailing against the current; if you don't advance, you retreat!

He had never been inferior to anyone in his life, so why should he avoid his sharpness!

"This is impossible!"

"You must have been hiding your strength before!"

Xiao Changjing said loudly.

When he first opened a Grotto-Heaven, the fastest he took was a month of seclusion, and the ninth Grotto-Heaven later took him over a year.

"Crescent moon cold as frost, Thunder with the force of ten thousand jin!"

However, Qin Wushang's only response was the flashing Crimson Blood light as his Crimson Blood was brandished!

The blood moon manifested, and the blade light shone!

"What if you have ten Grotto-Heavens? I have Divine Abilities!"

"You will surely lose!"

"Yin and Yang Sacred Body, open!"

"Buzz!"

The heavens and earth darkened, generating Yin and Yang Qi, which intertwined behind Xiao Changjing to form a Chaos Tai Chi Diagram.

On the Yang diagram, a golden crow spread its wings, transforming into the sun!

On the Yin diagram, a jade rabbit leaped, transforming into the silver moon!

As they rotated, the sun and moon shone together, illuminating all living beings!

"Suppress!"

Xiao Changjing roared, unleashing the Chaos Tai Chi Diagram, attempting to suppress Qin Wushang, who was accumulating power!

But as the Chaos Tai Chi Diagram descended, the silver moon it manifested suddenly changed color!

Like the other crescent moon, it turned blood-red!

And Qin Wushang's aura suddenly surged, drawing forth a sea of Thunder, gathering infinite Thunder light onto the blade of his Crimson Blood!

"Thunder Half-Moon Slash!"

"Boom!"

He only accumulated power for ten breaths, and with one slash, two blood moons shone, and lightning transformed into light covering the Chaos Tai Chi Diagram, then violently tearing it apart.

The Yang diagram exploded, and the power of the Yin diagram was instantly extracted, instead further enhancing the power of this slash, striking towards Xiao Changjing!

As this slash fell, the heavens and earth became clear, and a deathly silence fell!

Everyone's mouths were agape in an 'O' shape, large enough to fit a huge object!

"This... this is impossible..."

Chu Yuer was momentarily dazed, her body swaying!

This slash!

It was a unique skill of their Tianwu Royal Estate; she had studied it for ten years and only learned a little of its essence!

Qin Wushang had actually learned it completely!

Xiao Changjing, hundreds of meters away, lay in the ruins spitting blood, his body covered in scorch marks from the lightning.

The Seal on his Dao Palace had also broken, and his Nirvana Realm cultivation had recovered.

"Impossible, impossible. This is my strongest Divine Ability, how could he break it! It must be that blade!"

Xiao Changjing thought to himself.

If the Seal hadn't broken when he heard the 'Symphony of Death' just now, he would have been cleaved to death by that single strike.

"What? Junior Brother Xiao can't get up?"

Qin Wushang sheathed his blade, saying with interest.

"Bang!"

"Yin and Yang Fish Dragon Transformation! Die for this Young Master!"
