On a cliff of Five Elements Peak, Wu Shang, dressed in black, gazed at the mist cloud beneath Jiang Yun, a peculiar glint in his eyes as he murmured, “This mist cloud isn't a Magical Artifact at all. Beneath the mist cloud, there are at least a hundred mist threads connected to the thick mist below, making the thick mist like water, the mist threads like stems, and the mist cloud like a lotus, allowing it to support Jiang Yun into the air, appearing as if he’s flying!”
“This is clearly a spell! To achieve this, one needs to have extremely precise control over Spiritual Qi. Even I can’t do it! This Jiang Yun is extraordinary!”
Wu Shang was absolutely right. This was the true reason Jiang Yun could “fly.” It was just that the various servants and Outer Sect Disciples couldn't see the hair-thin mist threads beneath the mist cloud, so they mistakenly thought the mist cloud was a flying Magical Artifact.
Not only Wu Shang, but the Peak Masters, Elders, and Inner Sect Disciples naturally saw through it, and this was precisely why they were so shocked.
A Cultivator in the Tongmai Realm could control Spiritual Qi to such an astonishing degree. Even if this wasn't astonishing talent, it must have been the result of immense hard work and effort.
The Tianfu Peak Master’s face suddenly showed a wry smile, and he softly said, “Perhaps my biggest mistake was not taking this country bumpkin as a Disciple! I wonder if it’s still not too late!”
Wei Zhengyang, who was originally preparing to act, was naturally also greatly astonished, and an extremely strong thought inexplicably arose in his mind: if this Jiang Yun didn't die, he would be a huge threat to Fang Yuxuan in the future!
The emergence of this thought was unbelievable even to Wei Zhengyang himself, but it was incredibly strong, so much so that after his expression flickered between gloomy and bright for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and said, “There are many ways to resolve a heart demon. Today, even if I have to risk being reprimanded by the Sect Master, I must kill Jiang Yun. I absolutely cannot let this kid grow up!”
Jiang Yun paid no attention to everyone’s surprise or insight. At this moment, being lifted by the mist cloud, he was getting closer and closer to Zheng Yuan, filled with a strong sense of excitement and relief!
Because at this moment, the torrent of Spiritual Qi in his body, transformed from the three Meridian Opening Pills, had been consumed by seventy to eighty percent after Zheng Yuan’s repeated attacks, especially the final sword thrust. Although the remaining Spiritual Qi was still considerable, it was at least within the range his Physical Body could fully bear.
What’s more, only one-tenth of the Impurities remained in his ninth Meridian. Once it was opened, it would mean he would enter the Nine Levels of Vein Opening! realm, just one step away from the Blessed Land Realm!
In fact, Jiang Yun truly couldn’t be Zheng Yuan’s opponent, even if he was in the Nine Levels of Vein Opening! realm!
It must be known that between the Nine Levels of Vein Opening! and the first level of Blessed Land Realm, the Spiritual Qi in the body differs by nearly a hundredfold. How could such a huge gap be crossed by relying solely on the power of the Physical Body?
It was just that Zheng Yuan’s timing for attacking Jiang Yun was wrong.
If Zheng Yuan’s Spiritual Qi in his body was one hundred, then Jiang Yun’s Spiritual Qi in his body was only one. However, the Spiritual Qi transformed from the three Meridian Opening Pills had reached at least ninety!
The gap between one and one hundred could indeed not be crossed by the power of the Physical Body, but the gap between ninety-one and one hundred, combined with Jiang Yun’s Physical Body strength and the Cloud Heaven Mist Earth Technique he had just learned from Old Hei, might still not be able to be crossed, but at least he had the power to fight.
Now, Jiang Yun was about to fight Zheng Yuan!
Looking at Zheng Yuan, who was already in sight, Jiang Yun’s eyes suddenly flared with fierce light, and the powerful bloody Qi surged out from his body. He pointed a finger and softly uttered two words: “Mist Evil!”
“Boom!”
The mist cloud that had been supporting him beneath him suddenly expanded with Jiang Yun’s finger, sweeping past Jiang Yun’s body, and also transforming into a giant finger, pointing towards Zheng Yuan!
This finger appeared illusory, but its fingerprints were clearly visible, and within it, countless Vicious Beasts seemed to be hidden, now roaring ferociously and howling madly in unison, creating an immense momentum.
Below Hidden Peak, the many Disciples looking up, just hearing the beast roars coming from within, most of them already felt a chill run down their spines and their bodies tremble.
One can imagine the power of this finger!
On the peak of Red Dust Peak, a middle-aged woman with raven hair frowned slightly, her ears twitching slightly, and she muttered to herself, “This technique is not from my Wen Dao Sect, but it actually contains the Dao of rhythm. I wonder where this child learned it, but this child is very suitable for my Red Dust Peak!”
The Cloud Heaven Mist Earth Technique is not just one technique; it doesn't even have fixed spells. Instead, it can transform into countless attack methods based on changes in the mist.
When Cultivated to the extreme, it can even form a realm of clouds and mist to trap enemies, while allowing the mist to freely transform into various forms to attack the enemy.
Jiang Yun was naturally far from reaching this level, but just now, he had used a small Cloud Heaven Mist Earth to temporarily seal the Fire Radiance Sword, thereby cutting off the connection between the sword and Zheng Yuan.
And this Mist Evil was also a technique temporarily created by Old Hei based on the bloody Qi Jiang Yun had accumulated from killing a large number of Vicious Beasts.
Bloody Qi is Evil Qi; when fused into mist, it becomes Mist Evil!
The power of this technique does not lie in force, but in deterrence, using Evil Qi to deter the opponent!
From the moment Zheng Yuan appeared until now, Jiang Yun had actually always been in a passive position, never retaliating. And now, this was his first active attack!
At this moment, Zheng Yuan, upon seeing Jiang Yun able to follow him and fly into the air, already felt fear in his heart.
Now, hearing the fierce beast roars coming from the mist finger behind him, especially since he had experienced much killing, he was extremely sensitive to Evil Qi, and thus could feel the powerful Evil Qi contained within the mist finger more clearly than others.
All of this made him tremble with fear, and he even dared not directly confront Jiang Yun’s finger, only accelerating, wanting to avoid the mist finger from afar.
Zheng Yuan was, after all, in the Blessed Land Realm, flying by relying on his own Spiritual Qi. Once he accelerated, the mist finger indeed could not catch up. However, Jiang Yun’s expression remained unchanged, and he raised his palm again.
A ten-foot-long fire Dragon rushed out from his palm, but it did not charge towards Zheng Yuan. Instead, it violently slammed into the mist finger!
“Boom!”
Under the impact of the fire Dragon, although the scorching temperature caused the mist finger to shrink a few sizes, the force of the impact caused the mist finger’s speed to suddenly accelerate, instantly shortening the distance between it and Zheng Yuan, striking the fire river encircling Zheng Yuan.
The fire river instantly disintegrated, and although the mist finger also suffered some loss, its momentum did not decrease, continuing until it struck Zheng Yuan’s back.
“Boom!”
Another loud bang sounded, and the mist finger dissipated. Immediately after, Zheng Yuan let out a tragic scream, his entire body, like a giant rock, plummeted straight down from the air towards the ground, slamming heavily onto the ground, lying motionless.
Jiang Yun, having lost the support of the mist cloud, also landed on the ground, standing beside Zheng Yuan, looking down at him. After a moment of hesitation in his eyes, he suddenly raised his hand, gripping Zheng Yuan’s Fire Radiance Sword, and fiercely stabbed it towards Zheng Yuan’s throat!
