Chapter 909: Tai Chi Purple Light
The Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm. Mo Wen had finally broken through this high entry barrier!
Yin and Yang completed each other and merged in harmony, causing the quality of Mo Wen’s cultivation to be enriched. The Celestial Scripture: Sun and Moon, which had been long suppressed by the Nine Yin and Nine Yang Divine Techniques, also experienced a blowout breakthrough and leaped into the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm.
Three Divine Techniques reached the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm at the same time. Their might was terrifying. Even among the hidden martial arts strain, there were most likely no ancient martial art practitioners like Mo Wen.
The transformation of this breakthrough far exceeded that of before. Three Divine Techniques miraculously merged. Mo Wen noticed that a unique energy was formed in his body. It was neither Cold Qi nor Flame Qi. It wasn’t the liveliness generated by the Celestial Scripture: Sun and Moon either. Instead, it was a golden and purple energy mass, emanating a sedate aura.
Mo Wen slowly extended his hand. Masses of golden and purple light twirled around his palm. Others didn’t notice anything special from the golden and purple light. However, Mo Wen was well-aware of the terrifying power contained within it.
Mo Wen noticed that his body had once again undergone a transformation due to the appearance of these golden and purple energy masses. The surface of his body was slightly lit with a layer of the purple halo.
“What is that… Tai Chi Purple Light?”
Mo Qingtian, who had always been as cool as a cucumber, suddenly opened his eyes wide. He stared at Mo Wen, surprised. Was that Tai Chi Purple Light? That was impossible! Was it?
Even Mo Qingtian had not imagined that Mo Wen had actually cultivated Tai Chi Purple Light.
“That was the fledging stage of Tai Chi Purple Light. It’s still incomplete. However, if Mo Wen can advance further, perhaps he can really cultivate Tai Chi Purple Light.”
Mo Qingge’s eyes were as bright as stars. Even she had not expected that Mo Wen could actually master the fledging stage of Tai Chi Purple Light. Even though Mo Wen’s current achievement was still at the fledgling stage and had only ten percent of Tai Chi Purple Light’s power, it was enough to make other ancient martial art practitioners envious.
Even ancient martial art practitioners who had become immortal would most likely be envious of Mo Wen, let alone common ancient martial art practitioners.
The Power of Tai Chi was a mysterious force among the heavens and earth. It could be said to be a Heavenly Path. There was the Heavenly Path of Tai Chi in the Immortal Cultivation World. The Heavenly Path of Tai Chi existed everywhere among the heavens and earth and could be used in a wide array of situations. Many stratagems, magical treasures, and magical powers contained the principles of Tai Chi.
There were many types of Power of Tai Chi. Nobody had ever dared to claim that they had completely mastered the Heavenly Path of Tai Chi. Tai Chi Purple Light was one of the most basic forms of Power of Tai Chi. Only by mastering Tai Chi Purple Light could one be roughly considered as having stepped onto the Heavenly Path of Tai Chi. Even so, many common immortal cultivators and ancient martial art practitioners who had become immortal could not comprehend and cultivate Tai Chi Purple Light.
After all, the Path of Tai Chi was a Heavenly Path; it was not merely an esoteric rule of the heavens and earth.
“What power is that?”
The Day Scorpion Familiar suddenly narrowed his eyes and fixed his gaze on the streaks of purple light in Mo Wen’s hand. The purple light actually imposed fear on him.
Two purple and golden flames lit up in Mo Wen’s eyes. At the same time, the Spiritless Clean Fire suddenly contorted to a greater extent than before, frenziedly devouring the Power of Heaven and Earth. Its devouring speed was almost ten times its previous speed. In just a few breaths time, the surrounding Power of Heaven and Earth had been completely devoured by it.
The storm calmed, and Mo Wen descended slowly from the air. He stood in the challenge ring, with sparkling eyes and a healthy complexion. Xin Wuji also landed in the challenge ring. In contrast, he seemed extremely exhausted, with dull eyes and a face as white as a sheet.
“Do we still need to continue the battle?” Mo Wen asked plainly. Right now, Xin Wuji’s power had been completely devoured by the Spiritless Clean Fire. It was likely that any other participant could easily defeat Xin Wuji now, let alone Mo Wen. At the same time, Mo Wen was even more certain that Xin Wuji was abnormal in some way. It took such a long time for the Spiritless Clean Fire to completely devour his energy. How was it possible for a common ancient martial art practitioner to have such rich and deep cultivation? Even ultimate warriors would most likely pale into insignificance when compared to Xin Wuji!
“I surrender!”
Xin Wuji glared at Mo Wen unwillingly. Since things had ended up like this, it was already impossible for him to secure first place. He only hoped that there would be no more hiccups after this.
After Xin Wuji said that, he retreated from the first challenge ring. However, he appeared in the second challenge ring. At the moment, Water Deity was sitting cross-legged in the second challenge ring.
“You have been defeated by me. Please leave,” Xin Wuji said plainly after he glanced at Water Deity.
According to the rules, a loser could not fight for the same challenge ring as a winner. Since Water Deity had been defeated by Xin Wuji, when Xin Wuji chose the second challenge ring, she could only retreat unconditionally.
Water Deity sighed. She didn’t say anything, leaving the second challenge ring right away.
“Get lost.”
However, right after Water Deity left, a silhouette appeared in the second challenge ring and said the two words with a rather domineering tone.
Gu Jingman, who was originally in the eighth challenge ring, appeared in the second challenge ring. Her eyes were cold. She did not have a good impression of Xin Wuji at all.
“What did you say?”
‘Xin Wuji’ was stunned as he looked at Gu Jingman. A participant had actually dared to speak to him in such a tone. Even though he was defeated by Mo Wen and his energy was almost exhausted, he was the Day Scorpion Familiar after all. As an existence at the pinnacle of the sacred level, he could recover a large portion of his energy in just a few breaths of time. He did not feel pressured at all when handling these ancient martial art practitioners who weren’t even at the sacred level.
“Since you won’t get lost on your own, then you’ll leave lying down.”
Gu Jingman clearly had no intention of wasting time on Xin Wuji. She disappeared from her original spot. The next moment, a crimson silhouette appeared before Xin Wuji.
“You seek death.”
The Day Scorpion Familiar was enraged beyond words. He was already feeling dejected because he was defeated by Mo Wen just now. Now, he was being challenged. Could it be that he would be subjected to indignity just because he lost once?
The heavens and earth suddenly shook. The next moment, a large amount of Power of Heaven and Earth gushed down and formed a swirl around Xin Wuji. Streaks of silky white light condensed on the surface of Xin Wuji’s body, forming a Protective Qi defensive shroud. This defensive shroud was formed by the Day Scorpion Familiar with the Power of Heaven and Earth. Even ultimate warriors could not break through it in a short amount of time.
However, the next moment, a palm easily passed through the silky white defensive shroud, as though it was passing through a layer of bubbles. The palm appeared before Xin Wuji without much hassle.
“How is this possible?” Xin Wuji’s eyes were wide open. He stared at Gu Jingman with an expression of utter disbelief. It was as though he had seen a ghost. Even Mo Wen was not able to pass through his Protective Qi defensive shroud so easily!
Rumble!
Everything happened so quickly. As the Day Scorpion Familiar thought of how unbelievable this was, he had already been hit by a terrifying force. He flew backward uncontrollably, crashing forcefully into the ground.
The sound of bones fracturing could be heard. It was impossible for the weak body of Xin Wuji to resist a blow from Gu Jingman. Even though the force that landed on Xin Wuji was not much after Gu Jingman broke through the Protective Qi defensive shroud, it was still not something he could bear.
All the bones in his body were crushed into pieces in an instant. His internal organs exploded one by one. He lay motionlessly on the ground.
“Wuji!”
In the grandstand, Xin Yichuan’s facial expression changed drastically. He stared dumbfoundedly at Xin Wuji who was lying on the ground. He knew how much Xin Wuji was worth. Any of the participants could easily kill him. Just a blow was enough to send him to his death!
The facial expressions of Genta and the black-robed ancient martial art practitioner, who were sitting beside Xin Yichuan, also changed drastically. Originally, everything was going as planned. No one had anticipated such an incident to occur.
“That elder sister is so domineering.”
Su Wan’er covered her mouth with her dainty hands. Gu Jingman had merely said one sentence before she sent Xin Wuji flying out of the challenge ring. She was certainly savage!
“Xin Wuji has actually been defeated in one blow. What’s happening?”
In the grandstand, everyone was astonished. Just now, Xin Wuji had defeated three top masters alone. How was he now so pathetic?
“Who is that woman? She’s so savage.”
“That woman is too powerful! Xin Wuji is actually lying on the ground and is unable to move due to a blow from her.”
“She is the ‘Good Woman’, the one with the highest points. Before this, she had never engaged in a battle. I had almost forgotten about her.”
“She surely lives to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat. She is undoubtedly the person on the ranking lists with the highest point total. Most likely she has the ability to challenge for first place.”
…
Lively discussions were going on in the grandstand. Gu Jingman had attracted everyone’s attention. She defeated the opponent with a blow. Moreover, she defeated a top master like Xin Wuji. It was indeed shocking.
Even the facial expressions of all the participants changed slightly. Xin Wuji was unable to maintain his ability at its pinnacle state due to his battle with Mo Wen; however, he would surely not be so weak. To be able to defeat Xin Wuji with a blow showed that Gu Jingman was definitely frighteningly strong.
“Gu Jingman attacked. I thought she was not planning to do anything,” Mo Qingtian said with a faint smile.
“Her ability is high. Even though she has yet to reach the realm of becoming immortal, she is most likely ranked top among the ultimate warriors. Before this, she was ordinary and without fame, but now she has undergone such a drastic change. Most likely she bears a secret,” Mo Qingge said.
Mo Qingge knew about what Gu Jingman had done in the Red Stone Forest. If it was not because the Huatian Palace silently consented to her behaviors, Gu Jingman would not have been able to kill so many criminals in the Red Stone Forest. The Huatian Palace indeed wanted to utilize Gu Jingman to wipe out some criminals.
“Who cares whether she carries a secret or not. It’s fine as long as she does not cheat. Aren’t Sister and I carrying secrets too? Since Gu Jingman chose the second challenge ring, she is most likely not going to fight for the first place with Mo Wen. Both of them indeed have a good relationship.” Mo Qingtian shook his head. Gu Jingman was definitely qualified to fight for the first place. Besides, Mo Qingtian recognized that Mo Wen would most likely not be a match for Gu Jingman now. Even though Mo Wen’s cultivation had just undergone a breakthrough and he had mastered Tai Chi Purple Light, he was still far from being able to compete with pinnacle ultimate warriors.
“Damn it! Damn it all!”
Xin Wuji’s body suddenly jerked, then it slowly floated up. He was not crawling. Instead, he floated up vertically like a ghost. His eyes were bloodshot, and his entire body emanated a brutal aura.
Gu Jingman raised her eyebrows. He could actually get up? She felt a little strange. From her previous blow, she could clearly sense that Xin Wuji’s body had been crumbled completely. Even his internal organs were all crushed. How was it possible for him to get up again? He should be long dead by now.
Indeed, Xin Wuji’s body had died, and his will had disappeared from his brain completely. However, the Day Scorpion Familiar was the one who was controlling Xin Wuji’s body right now.
“B*tch, I have to kill you.” The Day Scorpion Familiar was raging at the moment. He was even close to going mad. Xin Wuji’s mortal body was dead. He couldn’t hide inside Xin Wuji’s body for much longer either. Otherwise, his identity would surely be exposed.
As the Day Scorpion Familiar thought of the possibility of having his identity exposed, he couldn’t help but feel desperate to kill Gu Jingman.
A blinding light glowed from Xin Wuji’s corpse, emanating a terrifying and unparalleled aura at the same time. Even when Xin Wuji was fighting with Mo Wen before this, his aura wasn’t as frightening. This aura made even Gu Jingman sense danger. Her expression turned serious in an instant.
“You dare to terrorize others at the Martial Arts Circle Convention. You are the one who should be killed.” A slender silhouette suddenly appeared in the scene. He didn’t emanate any terrifying waves, yet the entire world seemed to be centered on him instantaneously.
