Chapter 87 The Power of Taoism

————I wrote more than a thousand words last night and fell asleep. Today, I wrote while getting the A signature, and finally finished it.

In addition, I would like to thank my two friends Wuyun and Zipei for their rewards.

There were a few words missing in the text before, but now they have been revised.

Shi Xuan made a horrified expression, but he was actually very calm inside. The Wanxiang Shadowless Sword turned into a clear light and slashed at Meng Yuchang one sword after another, but Meng Yuchang easily blocked it with his true energy.

However, Meng Yuchang seemed very satisfied with Shi Xuan's performance. He became more and more happy, and walked slowly towards Shi Xuan step by step, shouting: "Come on, come on, just use whatever means you have. I will let you see the power of true energy."

Shi Xuan suddenly used the Shangqing Hand Pivot Thunder. The fourth-level magic finally broke through some of the defense of the Yanlong Shenhuo true energy. Unfortunately, Meng Yuchang's true energy was endless, and the Shangqing Hand Pivot Thunder soon dissipated.

Meng Yuchang was also slightly startled. It was obvious that Shangqing Hand Pivot Thunder could only break some of the defenses of the true Qi and could not hurt him at all. He became even more excited: "Haha, is this your last resort? What a pity. If you can cultivate to the fifth level, you may be able to break my Flame Dragon Divine Fire True Qi." After saying this, he even acted as if he felt sorry for Shi Xuan.

Shi Xuan seemed to have reached the end of his madness. Regardless of the fact that the sword light and magic were useless to Meng Yuchang, he used the Wanxiang Shadowless Sword, Shangqing Hand Pivot Thunder, and Golden Blade Divine Wind Slash alternately, and attacked Meng Yuchang frantically.

Meng Yuchang easily took on Shi Xuan's attack with the Flame Dragon Divine Fire True Qi, and then slowly walked towards Shi Xuan, as if he wanted to wait until he was exhausted, and then humiliate him, and finally throw him into the Nanming Lihuo Lake.

One step, two steps, three steps... Shi Xuan counted Meng Yuchang's steps calmly in his heart, calculating the distance between them. In fact, using Xiaoyou Qingfeng Dun, he could get within 5 meters of Meng Yuchang, but then he would be on guard. Who knows if he has anything to save his life, after all, he has an ancestor in the Jindan period.

Taoism is definitely rare for a big sect like Penglai Sect, but it is definitely impossible not to have it. If Meng Yuchang's ancestor Meng Li used protective Taoism to make something to save his life for him, and Meng Yuchang used it while on guard, then Shi Xuan could not guarantee that his Gengjin sword energy would be able to break the Taoist protection performed by the Jindan period master.

As for whether Meng Yuchang has something to save his life, Shi Xuan thinks it is very likely, so it is better to be safe, first reduce Meng Yuchang's vigilance, and then suddenly attack.

Seeing Shi Xuan getting more and more frightened, even showing a look of begging for mercy, Meng Yuchang felt that he had never felt so happy in his life. He could not help but let go of his remaining vigilance and walked over.

Suddenly, Meng Yuchang saw Shi Xuan slightly raise his head, and a faint white rainbow sprayed out from his nostrils, and in the blink of an eye it was in front of him.

This white rainbow met the fire dragon-like true qi and broke the true qi as smoothly as a knife cutting tofu, then drilled into Meng Yuchang's chest, then flew out from his back, and shot all the way to the opposite stone wall of Nanming Lihuo Lake, leaving a deep hole in the extremely hard rock.

Until then, a flame circle composed of nine fire dragons appeared on Meng Yuchang's body, and the fire dragons circled back and forth on the circle, refusing everything around to enter.

After seeing Meng Yuchang's chest hit by his Gengjin sword energy, Shi Xuan immediately used the Xiaoyou Qingfeng escape and escaped to the side of the gate, then watched him carefully, fearing that he would have any dying struggle.

Meng Yuchang looked at Shi Xuan steadily, and said in a hoarse voice, "Taoism?" As soon as the voice fell, countless tiny blood columns spurted out of his body surface, but it was the sword energy that burst out from the inside to the outside, making him full of holes, as if a large water bag was pierced with thousands of small holes, and even the fine Taoist robe on his body was torn to pieces.

Meng Yuchang fell to the ground softly like a tattered sack, and the round cover of the nine flame dragons slowly dissipated after half a quarter of an hour.

When the round cover of the nine flame dragons completely disappeared, Shi Xuan escaped carefully, and a Shangqing hand pivot thunder from a distance completely shattered Meng Yuchang's head. At this time, Shi Xuan really let go of his heart, and the whole person just felt extremely tired.

Although the battle just now was very short, Shi Xuan has been hovering on the edge of life and death. If he had not been fully prepared, he would probably be lying on the ground now.

Meng Yuchang was so complacent, it was definitely not just because he had mastered the situation and was in a good mood. From the first sword, Shi Xuan did not expect to be able to break the protection of the true qi, but invaded Meng Yuchang's body with all kinds of happy emotions such as happiness, joy, and ecstasy through the Heart Wind Sword.

Because unlike negative emotions, happy emotions are completely positive, Meng Yuchang's true qi naturally cannot prevent its invasion, unless Meng Yuchang realizes this problem and consciously uses it to stop it.

His own performance, the invasion of the Heart Wind Sword, and the disparity in strength, all of this added up, finally made Meng Yuchang let go of all his guard, so he could not use the life-saving things in time when facing the Gengjin sword energy.

And all of this was carefully considered by Shi Xuan on the Chuanyun Boat. With deliberate calculations, he finally got rid of Meng Yuchang, the culprit who suppressed himself and his friends.

After recovering a little strength, Shi Xuan walked up to Meng Yuchang's body and examined it carefully. His body was so horrible that if a child saw it, he would have nightmares at night.

He held a fiery red jade pendant in his hand, on which were carved nine majestic and powerful fire dragons that seemed to have life. Shi Xuan knew that this was his life-saving item.

The red storage bag on Meng Yuchang's waist was a real space bag, but he was always conceited, and there was no special restriction on the storage bag. Shi Xuan tried the usual method of taking items out of the storage bag in Penglai Sect, and he actually succeeded in taking out the items inside.

There were a lot of scattered items, including the best elixir used in the Qi Induction Period, the top-grade magic weapon lava sword, and many other extremely precious items.

Unfortunately, Shi Xuan could only sigh as he watched. These were destined to be thrown into the Nanming Lihuo Lake. Shi Xuan didn't dare to carry the stolen goods with him after killing someone. If Meng Li knew about it, it would be a big deal. Even if he was careful not to expose it, who knows if Meng Li, the Jindan Grandmaster, left any traces on it that could be found. If he did a ritual to check it out, wouldn't it be self-incrimination?

Shi Xuan looked through Meng Yuchang's storage bag, mainly to see if Meng Yuchang, who entered the hall earlier than him, had found any good things, but these things could be taken away.

After looking for a while, Meng Yuchang only got two items from the Flame God Mountain. One was the hard rocks like Shi Xuan, but it seemed that he took them from the Nanming Lihuo Lake. The other was three huge red feathers with ancient patterns, which seemed to be burning with Nanming Lihuo.

Shi Xuan was surprised and happy. These seemed to be Suzaku feathers. For Shi Xuan, these three feathers alone were more precious than anything else Meng Yuchang had except the jade pendant, because they were one of the several items that could be used to practice the Taoist magic power of "Shaoyin Heart Yang False and Real Fire".

Of course, the Nanming Lihuo is needed to cultivate the Shaoyin Heart Yang False and Real Fire, but the Suzaku Feather, which completely controls the Nanming Lihuo, is a better choice. You must know that Shi Xuan has no way to take the Nanming Lihuo now, and he dare not stay here until the Taoist practice is successful. This kind of place may change drastically in the next moment. It is extremely dangerous to stay here for a month or two. Moreover, the five external objects can only practice one in the out-of-body stage, three in the Qi-inducing stage, and five in the Soul stage.

Besides, the Suzaku Feather can also be used to refine instruments, right? I can use it to practice the "Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan" in the legend of the Conferred God in my previous life. These Conferred God magic weapons were my childhood dreams. Now that I have the conditions, I will naturally refine similar magic weapons and then give them similar names. I have to say that this is a bit of Shi Xuan's bad taste.

But it's too early to think about the Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan now. There is only one of the seven kinds of bird feathers. It's as ridiculous as picking up a piece of wood and planning to build a house.

The Suzaku feather was sealed by Meng Yuchang with a special method, otherwise he would not dare to throw it into the storage bag.

After collecting the Suzaku feather and the hard rock, Shi Xuan began to destroy the body and threw Meng Yuchang's body, the storage bag, and other items in the storage bag into the Nanming Fire Lake. When he saw them turn into green smoke and threw the jade pendant, Shi Xuan felt extremely heartbroken, but there was no way, and the jade pendant that sealed the Taoist magic inside was still thrown down by Shi Xuan.

After the jade pendant fell into the Nanming Fire Lake, it immediately triggered a round cover of nine fire dragons. Unfortunately, no one supplied mana, and it was burned by the Nanming Fire after only resisting for a moment.

After that, Shi Xuan threw all his clothes into the Nanming Fire Lake and changed into the new Taoist robe in the storage bag.

In this environment, Meng Yuchang's blood had long evaporated, but Shi Xuan did not dare to be careless. He still used Shangqing Hand Pivot Thunder to carefully destroy the scene, but the rocks here were extremely hard and Shi Xuan's ability could not destroy them at all. He could only do a little better than nothing.

After carefully checking the surroundings, he found no other way out. Shi Xuan remembered that the fire giant and the fire bird seemed to be afraid of the hall here. So were they afraid of the Nanming Lihuo or the breath of the Vermillion Bird? He could try it with the Vermillion Bird feather.

When he walked to the gate, Shi Xuan had an idea and wondered if he could use Shangqing Hand Pivot Thunder to detonate the Nanming Lihuo Lake. Wouldn't all the traces here be gone? But he thought again that he might die in the explosion of the Nanming Lihuo Lake, so he had to give up the idea.

When he walked back to the hall, Shi Xuan felt refreshed. After regaining his strength, Shi Xuan took out a Suzaku feather and walked carefully to another entrance. Then he saw the fire giants and fire birds retreating as if they had seen their nemesis, and some even crawled on the ground.

Shi Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, holding the Suzaku feather, turned into a breeze, and fled forward along the corridor.
