Huff huff!
Intense panting sounds could be heard. Cheng Hao and Hong Xuanji did not continue to attack. Instead, they took advantage of this short interval to quickly recover their Qi and blood.
Although the fight just now was short, it was only a few breaths of time. However, in these few breaths of time, the two of them had used almost all of their strength. That kind of life and death collision made even a Human Immortal expert feel a trace of mental exhaustion.
Hong Yi stood at the mountainside a few miles away. He did not join the battle. The two experts who were comparable to beginner Human Immortals were exchanging blows. In his senses, it was like two supreme gods were fighting. The formless waves that were swept out by the terrifying martial wills were like a vast ocean. It was difficult for him to even send his Divine Soul out of his body.
As the saying went, the layman watched the show, while the expert watched the skill. In the eyes of ordinary experts, the two of them had simply exchanged a few punches and set off a series of explosion vortexes. At the same time, they had also shattered many rocks and trees. Although they were powerful, they were not invincible.
However, Hong Yi, who had the strength of a peak Ghost Immortal, could naturally see the degree of danger in the fight between Cheng Hao and Hong Xuanji. It was definitely a great horror that could determine life and death with a slight mistake.
The fight between martial arts experts was different from the fight between immortal experts. The fight between immortal experts was a competition of Dao techniques and Divine Powers. All kinds of spells were exchanged and the Divine Soul flew around. Sometimes, the fight between people who were of similar strength could last for a few months.
However, a battle between martial arts experts was unusually simple. It was a battle between moves and martial will. Whoever's vital energy and blood moves were stronger, and whose martial will was more powerful and domineering, would be able to unleash overwhelming power. Before one was unable to fly in the air, sometimes it would only take a few breaths' time to determine the victor.
"That's Fist Intent? Is this the Martial Will that only a peak Martial Sage can gradually master? It's even more strange and terrifying than Divine Soul attacks! " Hong Yi mumbled to himself as he sensed the gradual dissipation of the two overwhelming martial wills in void space.
Fist Intent, or Martial Intent, was an attack unique to martial arts experts. It was an attack of the mind and will, and it was impossible to see anything with the naked eye. However, as long as it was a life form with perception and soul, it would be affected by this Martial Intent. The slightest bit of carelessness would result in death. It was extremely terrifying!
"Your last punch was the essence of your fist intent?" Hong Xuanji took a few quick breaths to calm the enormous blood and Qi that was surging rapidly in his chest. He frowned and looked at Cheng Hao.
"No, it shouldn't be the essence of Fist Intent. That punch of yours should have merely comprehended the surface of the essence of Fist Intent, and even the surface is barely enough. Otherwise, that punch from before would have been enough to kill me!"
Hong Xuanji clapped his hands to get rid of the dust on his body. He seemed to have no intention of continuing the fight. He withdrew his aura and seemed to be ready to retreat at any time. He looked at Cheng Hao and spoke slowly.
"Cheng Hao, whether it's blood, Qi, or Fist Intent, you've already reached the level of a Human Immortal. However, you haven't started the cultivation of acupoints. I have a Heavenly Scripture of Fate, which records the measurement and cultivation methods of more than 300 acupoints in the human body. As long as you cultivate this Cultivation Method, it's only a matter of time before you enter the Human Immortal Realm."
"Heavenly Scripture of Fate?" Cheng Hao laughed. "It's not easy to get a Cultivation Method from you, Hong Xuanji, right? Why, do you want me to rely on you? "
"You don't have to rely on me. A martial arts genius like you will never be weaker than me in the future. I don't expect you to rely on me. As long as you remain neutral and don't interfere in the affairs between me and my unfilial son, Hong Yi, I can send the first half of the Heavenly Scripture of Fate to the Marquis Ding's Mansion tomorrow. What do you think?"
Hong Xuanji's eyes moved slightly, and there was an indescribable light in his eyes. He seemed to be looking forward to Cheng Hao agreeing to his proposal.
"Forget it. I don't dare to practice your so-called Cultivation Method for a cold-blooded person like you who can even kill your wife and children!"
Cheng Hao shook his head and rejected Hong Yi's proposal under Hong Xuanji's relieved gaze. Then he waved his hand at Hong Xuanji, who still wanted to say something. "I don't want to hear you talk about the country's righteousness. If you want to fight, then let's continue. If you don't want to fight, then please leave. The imperial examination in spring is coming soon. As a scholar of the imperial examination, I have the obligation to protect Hong Yi's safety before the imperial examination! "
Hong Xuanji took a deep breath, as if thinking about the serious relationship between them. He felt that even if he fought to the death, he might not be able to gain an advantage from Cheng Hao. Then he retreated like a ghost, and his indifferent voice slowly came from afar.
"Then I will give you face, Cheng Hao. I won't make things difficult for him before the imperial examination. But if you interfere in the private matters between us father and son again, then don't blame me for killing you!"
Under the cold moonlight, Hong Xuanji left without hesitation. The moment he finished speaking, his figure completely disappeared halfway up the West Mountain. Other than the occasional whistling of the cold wind, there was no other sound.
"He left just like that. This doesn't seem to be Hong Xuanji's style!"
Seeing that Hong Xuanji had completely left, Hong Yi quickly rushed over. He looked at the distant black mountain scenery with some surprise, and there was an inexplicable doubt on his face.
"It's very normal. He's not stupid. He knows that it's very difficult to determine life and death. If he still fought recklessly here, then he wouldn't have the qualifications to become the Grand Tutor!"
Cheng Hao's expression was normal, and he didn't seem surprised. "The situation in the imperial court should still be in a tense state. It's very likely that a crisis and danger are brewing! He also doesn't want to fight with me here until both sides are injured and his strength is damaged. In the end, other factions will reap the benefits! "
"That's right. Hong Xuanji is not only powerful, but his thoughts are also deep. I've been in the marquis's residence for more than ten years, and I've never been able to guess what he's thinking."
Hong Yi nodded thoughtfully, and then sighed in relief. "Fortunately, Cheng Hao, you didn't agree to his suggestion. I was really worried that you wouldn't be able to resist the temptation of the Heavenly Scripture of Good Fortune!"
"You're overthinking!" Cheng Hao patted Hong Yi's shoulder with a look of righteousness. His face was full of sincerity and sincerity. "How can a Heavenly Scripture of Good Fortune be compared to the friendship of life and death between you and me? You don't need to worry about this in the future! "
"Cheng Hao!" Hong Yi's face immediately revealed a touch of a gentleman dying for his bosom friend. He nodded heavily at him. "To be able to meet a bosom friend like you, I, Hong Yi, have not lived in vain!"
Heh heh, this is exactly the kind of attitude I want.
Seeing that Hong Yi's emotions didn't seem to be fake, Cheng Hao's heart was filled with gratification. In a few months, he would leave this world. Before he left, he still needed Hong Yi, this opportunity harvester, to obtain more cultivation methods and Divine Abilities for him.
