Fishing. What a beautiful pasti!
Jiang Yi’s smile only widened at these words, showing not a hint of the anger or embarrassnt one would expect from being insulted.
He wanted the Yangshen Taisui, but he was unwilling to kill for treasure like the Ancient Demon Cultivators of old. It was too disgraceful.
After all, he was now the "fated one" chosen by the goddess.
’The foundations of Demon Cultivators from Branch Sect Dharma Lineages are just too shallow. They take the bait with a single tug.’
’If this were soone from a Grand Sect or an Ancestral Sect, they’d probably be more cautious.’
The thought flashed through Jiang Yi’s mind. He wanted to say a few more words, to play his part and really sell the narrative that he was being forced to retaliate.
But Kang Lanyun, riding his Kui Water True Qi, had already lost all patience. He shouted coldly:
"You blind fool! You don’t even realize you’ve offended a High Cultivator, and you drag your feet even when apologizing!
For soone like you, Cultivation is just a waste of Spiritual Energy!"
With that, he ford a hand seal for his Technique. A great mass of watery light erupted from the crown of his head, instantly swelling to over a hundred feet high. It was like a rolling azure wave, illuminating the dim sky.
Kang Lanyun’s Kui Water Cultivation was quite profound, and his Techniques excelled in transformation, perfectly embodying the true aning of "water has no constant form."
He flung his hand out and pointed. The mass of watery light shuddered with a great SPLASH, instantly transforming into long, azure needles as fine as ox hair. They rained down with a furious CRACKLE!
This move, "Chilling Cloud Annihilation Needle," was his signature skill. Using it against a re Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer Cultivator was, admittedly, a bit of a waste.
’A lion uses its full strength even when hunting a rabbit.’
The corner of Kang Lanyun’s mouth quirked up as he secretly reveled in his own caution.
Just as he expected, the azure needles fell layer after layer like a torrential downpour, crashing fiercely against the Bright Fla Mirror.
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! Fierce flas shot out and sparks flew. The mirror’s surface was struck so hard it began to spin wildly, showing signs of being unable to withstand the assault.
"Eh? This Magical Artifact is of surprisingly good quality. It can actually withstand my Daoist Skill."
Kang Lanyun stood in mid-air, sowhat astonished. Then he sneered.
"What a waste for such a fine item to fall into the hands of a re Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer Lower Cultivator. It ought to be mine!"
The thought had just crossed his mind when a ball of roiling fla suddenly flew over, landing softly beside him.
The woman in the robed dress retracted her Ding Fire Qi and asked in surprise:
"Senior Brother, who are you engaged in Magical Combat with?"
Kang Lanyun continued to circulate his True Qi. Another mass of erald-green water erupted from the crown of his head, unfurling across the sky. Endless layers of waves slowly closed in from all directions, squeezing the Bright Fla Mirror that Jiang Yi had summoned and forcing it to the brink of collapse. While doing all this, he chuckled and said:
"’Magical Combat’ is too strong a word. I’m just teaching a blind Lower Cultivator a lesson."
The robed woman focused her gaze and saw that an area several miles wide was enveloped in watery light. Countless azure rays blotted out the sky, shooting down in a dense barrage.
She imdiately clapped her hands in praise.
"Senior Brother Kang is truly amazing! Your experience with Daoist Skills is so profound! You’ve grasped the very essence of the Kui Water Cultivator’s art: ’surround, exhaust, and slowly devour’!"
Being flattered by the robed woman, Kang Lanyun felt even more pleased. Then, as if rembering sothing, he turned his head to look at the young woman in green on the opposite riverbank.
Seeing that she seed to be scared stiff, frozen in place, a wicked thought flashed through his mind:
’She’s actually quite pret—’
BOOM!
A massive, thunderous roar exploded, interrupting his thought.
Kang Lanyun was horrified. A sudden premonition of imnse danger washed over him, and he subconsciously yanked the robed woman in front of him to act as a shield!
"Senior Brother—"
The robed woman’s cry had barely left her lips when, with another BOOM, the very air trembled violently.
This ti, Kang Lanyun saw it clearly. The mirror-like defensive Magical Artifact had been put away. This Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer Lower Cultivator was acting completely unafraid, his body erupting with a powerful and unmatched Qi chanism.
Like a lithe, soaring dragon, he shot into the sky, shattering the thousands of azure rays condensed from Kui Water True Qi!
Then, he took a single, soft step, and his aura surged once more, rising like a column of signal smoke from a roaring fire.
His physical body was like a massive furnace, radiating such astonishing heat that the surrounding Kui Water True Qi couldn’t even get within three feet of him!
’This person actually walks the path of Body Refinent...’
Kang Lanyun was utterly astonished. Such "Strength Cultivators" who tempered their physical bodies were rare.
Only on the Dongsheng Continent and the Ximizhou Continent, within the Immortal Dao and Buddhist Dao, were there orthodox lineages for it.
’But no matter how powerful the physical body, how can it compare to True Qi!’
Kang Lanyun saw that his opponent’s display was rely nacing in appearance; he wasn’t actually hiding his true strength at the Qi Cultivation Tenth Layer.
He imdiately relaxed, casually tossed aside the robed woman he was holding, and raised his hand to form a seal.
Three masses of Kui Water True Qi coiled above his head. They didn’t expand outward, but instead converged into a cluster the size of a fist.
They looked like three gleaming, translucent erald beads—a truly beautiful sight!
This Spell was called "Three Tones of Soul-Falling." It was sothing Kang Lanyun had acquired on his travels, said to have co from a Grand Sect, and it was devastatingly powerful.
The three erald beads were all condensed from Kui Water True Qi. Following the three transformations of yin, a state where heaven and earth do not mix and the myriad things do not connect, they produced an aura of absolute death.
When they rubbed against and collided with one another, they would erupt with three thunderous sounds. The sound waves would penetrate straight into the internal organs, scramble the hundred bones, and pierce the Primordial Gate.
Even a Cultivation Furnace forged from Copper Essence and iron would be instantly destroyed if struck by it!
It was designed specifically to counter enemies with formidable physiques!
Ever since Kang Lanyun had mastered it through Cultivation, he’d had few opportunities to put it to use.
He never thought he’d have to use it against a re Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer Lower Cultivator today!
Just as he’d thought, Jiang Yi, relying on his formidable physique, threw a punch. A surging wave of qi erupted, completely shattering the tide of azure needles.
Then he stomped his foot hard. Like an earth dragon turning over, a huge chunk of soil was thrown into the air with a ROAR.
In that instant, the tall figure in his wide robes and long sleeves shot into the air, appearing right in front of Kang Lanyun.
"I was waiting for you to co to !"
