In front of the hall at the top of Qilin Mountain, Steward Hou didn't immediately get up to greet Old Lord Qilin as he watched him walk down the mountain. As Steward Hou, who had been following Qilin since the beginning, the relationship between the two no longer needed to be superficial. In Qilin's eyes, Steward Hou was more like his old buddy and brother, not just a simple steward.
Steward Hou's attention was focused on Qin Fen, who was not far away from his feet. It was already praiseworthy that this young man, who had been hit by Qilin's Formless Finger of Disaster, had only fainted and not died. But now, he seemed to be showing signs of waking up.
Qilin's footsteps came to a halt. The obsidian-like eyes under his sword-like eyebrows flickered with a hint of surprise.
How could the Formless Finger of Disaster released by Qilin at the fifteen-star level be comparable to the Formless Finger of Disaster of an ordinary martial dao master? Even among the sixteen-star martial artists, only a few could compress and release such high-density true energy.
It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a miracle that one could survive a finger attack. If one regained consciousness very quickly after fainting, this … Looking at Qin Fen's gently twitching index finger, Song Wendong felt that this situation could no longer be called a miracle, but rather nonsense.
He woke up! Song Wendong's pupils constricted suddenly. Waking up was no longer a shocking thing. He couldn't believe that Qin Fen, who was slowly getting up from the ground after waking up, was exuding a completely different aura.
Powerful? No! Song Wendong shook his head gently. There was no change in his star-class, but the aura exuding from his body was completely different, ancient and profound!
Qin Fen was obviously still at the fifteen-star level, but he gave off an unfathomable feeling! Song Wendong even had the illusion that the person in front of him wasn't Qin Fen but a divine beast-level martial artist who was also suppressing his strength just like him!
As this absurd thought flashed across Song Wendong's mind, a pair of black eyes carefully sized up Qin Fen, who had just stood up again. Only fanaticism could be seen in Qin Fen's empty eyes. It was as if some kind of instinct had awakened after losing consciousness, turning into a simple consciousness that dominated the body. The more Song Wendong observed, the more he felt that this wasn't Qin Fen.
"This is …"
Steward Hou and Song Zhenting shuddered at the same time as they looked at Qin Fen with incomparable astonishment in their eyes. Qin Fen had the same strength, the same person, but the aura on his body was completely different!
Song Jia was unable to understand the huge change in the expressions of the three elders at the same time. In her eyes, Qin Fen was still the same Qin Fen as before. It was just that the light in his eyes was a bit hollow and a bit fanatical. Aside from this, there was no other difference.
Song Jia was unable to feel the change in Qin Fen's aura due to the huge difference in their realms. But as a divine beast, Qilin Song Wendong, it was impossible for him not to notice such a change.
"Is this the unwillingness to accept defeat? The awakening of the body's instinctive will? " Song Wendong thought of Mercury's Black Tortoise, a divine beast that usually possessed extraordinary strength. If it was defeated and fainted in a fierce battle, it would instinctively awaken its subconscious to fight, several times stronger than usual. "Does Qin Fen also have such an instinct?"
"14 minutes and 45 seconds left …"
Master controlled Qin Fen's body to bend slightly. His voice was a bit stiff and hoarse. His ten fingers made a few popping sounds as he stared straight at Song Wendong. "Come on, don't waste time."
His voice faded away! Smoke rose from the ground under Master's feet as he once again disappeared completely from Song Jia's eyes. The ground wasn't blasted by the powerful thunderstorm like in the past. Instead, it was as if it had been electrocuted by millions of high-voltage currents, scorching the ground.
"Electric Steps!?" Qin Fen, standing in his sea of consciousness, was shocked again and again as he watched Master control his body to use the martial technique. He had always been one step away from mastering the Electric Steps, but now, he could use it so easily in the hands of Master!
Steward Hou's pupils shrunk to the size of a needle. He narrowed his eyes as he stared at Qin Fen's figure. The ground didn't shake at all as Qin Fen appeared before Qilin.
At the same time, Qin Fen's body turned into an autonomous luminous body. True energy mixed with his flesh and meridians made his body look like jade. His skin was as smooth and shiny as the most beautiful ice-type chalcedony. This texture had an indescribable beauty to it.
Qin Fen's palm hadn't changed in the slightest from the size of an ordinary person. Yet, this palm had completely enveloped Song Wendong. The majestic body of Qilin in front of Qin Fen's palm, which wasn't that big, gave a visual illusion. It was as if Qin Fen's palm wasn't the divine beast Qilin but a newly hatched chick.
To everyone's surprise, Master's first move turned out to be the Heaven and Earth in the Palm that Qilin had used before.
This was the higher evolution of Thunder Steps, Electric Steps. Master could easily use it according to Qin Fen's martial arts theories. The veins connected to his toes were infused with true aura energy. The power of his feet was far greater than before, like a giant elephant charging.
As the power of the giant elephant emerged from his toes, Qin Fen's calves bulged and contracted as true energy was infused into them. At the same time, the joints of his lower limbs burst with aura energy. His back muscles bulged again and again as his spine rose and fell like a dragon, turning into a divine dragon leaping out of the water.
As soon as Master's Heaven and Earth in the Palm appeared, Qin Fen's previous realm of gathering energy and condensing aura energy had transformed into the second realm of transforming energy into element — Infusing True Aura Body!
Qilin was able to use the Formless Finger of Disaster to repel Qin Fen by relying on the difference in true aura. Although Infusing True Aura Body was only one level higher than gathering energy and condensing aura, the gap between them could only be known when facing each other.
Back then, Qin Fen of Shenyang killed his martial dao master opponent with one punch because his realm of gathering energy and condensing aura was about to reach the true peak, far surpassing those martial dao masters who couldn't even gather energy and condense aura.
The higher one walked in martial dao, even if there was only a difference of one level between the two sides, the result of the battle would often be very different.
Master's Heaven and Earth in the Palm made Qin Fen, who was floating in the sea of consciousness, surprised again and again. The theoretical master was indeed a theoretical super master. He had only seen the Heaven and Earth in the Palm once, but it had many different changes in his hands.
This palm not only shrouded Qilin within the attack range, but it also absorbed and summarized the essence of Thundersteps and Electric Steps. There was not only heaven and earth in this palm, but also thunder and lightning! That wasn't a real electric current, it was like lightning. When the true aura entered Qilin's body, the thunder rumbled and exploded. It was more like the Thundersteps had been launched. When Qilin rushed in front of him, the thunder and lightning power of heaven and earth poured down!
RUMBLE!
The moment Master's sudden attack was launched, Qilin's almighty and unparalleled aura of power was swept away by the thunder and lightning power of heaven and earth. The previous indifferent and unshakable aura of power was no longer there.
Song Zhenting grinned as he looked at Qin Fen. In his heart, he was shocked by this young man who had suddenly woken up. The true aura condensed from the Heaven and Earth in the Palm true energy entered his body and that power seemed to be breaking through the limit of the fifteen-star level. This palm could no longer be said to be the unity of man and nature, it was the use of heaven and earth!
If Qilin had maintained the momentum of the Imperial Heaven and Earth from the beginning to the end, then this palm of Master was swallowing the sky with his own power! He had extracted heaven and earth from Qilin's body!
I don't care about your own heaven and earth, I am the true master of heaven and earth!
Looking at Qin Fen's attack, Song Wendong's expression turned grave for the first time. His body, which had always been relaxed, was really nervous for the first time! This could be seen clearly from the solemn expression on his face.
Qilin, who had experienced hundreds of battles, didn't expect that Qin Fen, who had passed the preliminary test after being knocked unconscious by a finger, would be so fierce after waking up. He had only seen the Heaven and Earth in the Palm once, and the power had reached such an amazing level!
Heart, technique, body! Heaven, earth, and man as one! Even sixteen-star and seventeen-star martial artists couldn't achieve this level of things, but a fifteen-star young martial dao master had done it!
Qilin's heart was no longer just admiring, it could even be said to be comprehending. This is the real heaven, earth, and man as one!
In the face of the three-in-one attack, Qilin didn't increase his star-class strength. Sitting alone on Qilin Peak all these years, wasn't it a kind of loneliness for a divine beast martial artist? Using true energy to counterattack such a perfect attack would be the biggest waste of God's gift!
More importantly, Qilin faintly had an absurd intuition. As a dignified divine beast martial artist, if he maintained this star-class strength to fight with Qin Fen, it was very likely that he would gain new insights in the end, and there might be new breakthroughs in his martial dao that was slowly advancing!
Fighting with a new fifteen-star young martial dao master would give me majestic battle experience, which would make the divine beast martial artist's martial dao improve again? Qilin himself felt that this was very absurd, but he couldn't refuse this thought that flashed in his mind.
He didn't retreat, and he didn't dodge! Song Wendong's neck was slightly stiff. The true aura shield that was the limit of a fifteen-star level entered his body and filled every cell of his body. His black hair stood up! The clothes on his body rustled and fluttered non-stop.
In the next moment, the true energy in Song Wendong's body roared like an auspicious beast, Qilin. His legs sank into the horse stance like an iron bridge, and he inhaled as if he wanted to inhale all the air in the world into his lungs. Qin Fen had used the World Swallowing Qi before. This time, Qin Fen used it again in Qilin's hands. Qin Fen watched carefully in his sea of consciousness and immediately understood where the flaws of his move were. He praised this divine beast in his heart for being a martial artist that stood at the peak of today's martial artists.
Bend the leg, sink the hip! His left palm pressed down from his chest to his waist, and he transferred the strength to his right shoulder. At the same time, his right palm shot up and drew a semicircle in the air, pressing against Master's palm of Heaven and Earth in the Palm.
BOOM!
The loud noise was louder than the thunder and lightning snakes in the stormy night. As the palms collided with each other, Song Jia felt the ground of the mountain tremble violently. The rocks around the peak began to collapse, and the cracking sound was like the groan of the Qilin Peak.
Master temporarily borrowed Qin Fen's body for the first blow. The World in the Palm, which could easily turn a mobile armor into iron mud, was blocked by Song Wendong's Cloud Hand.
The palms of the two didn't separate immediately after the collision like before. Instead, they were stuck together like magnets of different poles. A series of rapid drumming sounds rang from the palms of the two.
True energy oscillations! Song Jia barely understood the meaning of this blow. The palms of the two were joined together, and each of them quickly released the true energy oscillations at the highest frequency, hoping to shock the opponent back.
Song Zhenting's expression was far more solemn than Song Jia's. The battle of high-level true energy oscillations was also known by the martial dao masters as a battle of life and death without gunpowder. A slight mistake was very likely to determine life and death! Of course, divine beasts possessed strength beyond the fifteen-star level. Even if they were at a disadvantage by accident, they wouldn't be shocked to death. Qin Fen had obviously suffered a big loss with this move.
Because Qilin could afford to lose with his extraordinary strength in this round! Qin Fen couldn't afford to lose! If he lost, his life would be gone immediately.
The sound of the war drums rang a hundred times a second, causing the entire ground to tremble again and again. Steward Hou was no longer lying on the reclining chair. He sat up straight, staring at the scene before him with eyes full of shock. Even if he suppressed his fifteen-star level strength and used true energy oscillations to fight without gunpowder, he still wouldn't be able to contend with Qilin for so long without losing.
In this high-intensity ultimate battle, Qilin could no longer fight like before. He could even divert his attention to protect his clothes from damage. In the blink of an eye, the clothes on his right arm were hit by true energy. The entanglement of the airflow tore and tore the clothes into shreds, revealing his entire arm. Unlike Qin Fen's jade-like skin, his muscles and skin were connected to each other, forming small flaky granules. It wasn't a shape that a human body could train. These granules were superimposed on each other in a compact arrangement, glowing with the same luster.
This was the difference in martial dao, which led to the different changes in the body when using true energy! The three onlookers were far more shocked than Qin Fen when they saw this scene. This was the divine beast Qilin's protective divine art, Qilin True Body! And those tightly arranged flaky muscles were Qilin's scales! It was revered by countless martial artists as one of the ultimate protective divine arts in martial dao!
"He can force Grandpa to use his protective divine art?" Song Jia's shining eyes blinked again and again. This meant that Qilin absolutely couldn't show any mercy to Qin Fen unless he raised his star-class strength.
But … if he raised his star-class strength from the beginning, it would mean that Qilin disdained to have a fair fight with his opponent. He wanted to crush his opponent with his star-class strength.
Now … Song Zhenting understood very well that his father, Song Wendong, couldn't raise his star-class strength to fight Qin Fen. As long as he raised his star-class strength, he would be admitting that he couldn't beat Qin Fen in the fifteen-star level.
A dignified divine beast martial artist! He couldn't beat a new fifteen-star martial dao master who was also a fifteen-star level martial dao master! If Song Wendong raised his strength to suppress Qin Fen at this time, his confidence in martial dao would be shaken. Not to mention any progress in martial dao in the future, it would be lucky if he could completely keep his unbalanced heart and not let his strength decline.
Qin Fen was suspended in the sea of consciousness. Not only could he clearly see the battle between the two masters outside, but he could also see how the true energy in his meridians vibrated. He could even feel the expanding true energy vibration technique when he closed his eyes.
Several loud noises came from the top of the mountain. The martial artists hidden in the mountains began to be unable to hold back the curiosity in their hearts. The martial dao master-level experts could judge the intensity of the battle from the sound of the battle.
Hashimoto listened to the waves of agitation and could no longer bear the tempting sound of the fierce battle. He flung his fat body, making the Mysterious Daughter of Nine Skies feel the earth shake again. He had already rushed into the Qilin Mountain.
Qilin's rules? I can't care about it! Hashimoto Nagashiro only wanted to watch this rare battle in the world. He had completely forgotten the rules of trespassing the Qilin Mountain.
Those martial dao masters hidden in the dark in the mountains, and even the martial artists who had entered the grandmaster level, who could still hold back when they heard the sound of the fierce battle? Several figures rushed in the mountains, and their goal was surprisingly the same! It was the top of the mountain! The most central position of the fierce battle!
Master's Palm Heaven and Earth intersected with Master. Suddenly, he felt that the strength of the man called Qilin in front of him was better than what he had previously guessed through the Rejuvenation Art. He was definitely the strongest person Qin Fen had encountered since his debut! Even White Tiger, who had appeared on the beach and almost crippled Qin Fen for life with one palm, was still inferior to Qilin.
Apart from other things, Qilin's true energy vibration and strange protective divine art would definitely be a very famous master even if he was placed in the era of Atlantis when the martial arts were at its peak.
There were two kinds of proud people. One was brainless and self-righteous pride. The other one was to have sufficient capital! Qilin obviously belonged to the latter.
"This is what it means to establish a true sect, a true grandmaster of the martial arts lineage."
Master sighed in his heart. Unfortunately, the time was too short. Unfortunately, it was only a fight between fifteen-star martial artists.
After a few seconds of shock, Qilin stuck his left hand to Master's Palm Heaven and Earth, which had been pressed against his waist all along, and with a twist of his waist, his left hand shot out like a bolt of lightning towards Qin Fen's throat!
As soon as Qilin's Snake Fist came out, a crisp sound rang in the air. The hissing sound of the white snake's tongue pierced through the sound of the collision. If someone closed their eyes, they would have thought that a never-before-seen python was spitting out its long tongue.
Steward Hou straightened his back and looked at Qin Fen attentively. During the collision of true energy, even a true martial dao master would need to be fully focused. Qilin, relying on his deep and powerful foundation, was not afraid of being injured and defeated, so he divided his attention into two parts.
A smile hung on the corner of Master's lips as he took a lunge step, bent his front leg and shot out! Suddenly, a whistling sound of a powerful kick piercing through the air rang in the air. The faces of Song Wendong, Steward Hou, and Song Zhenting turned black at the same time. Groin Kick!
In order to receive Heaven and Earth in the Palm, Song Wendong had taken the Great Horse Stance. Facing Qin Fen's Lunge and Arrow Step, Song Wendong was clearly tempting Qin Fen to use Groin Kick. But who would have thought that Master could also divide his attention into two parts during the collision of true energy? His empty left hand could have made all kinds of counterattacks, but he did nothing. Instead, he sent a somewhat vulgar Groin Kick towards Song Wendong's lower body.
Master's kick was too sudden. Even if Song Wendong's Qilin Body was able to block this kick of his at the same level, he might still be kicked in the vitals, turning into a naked Qilin.
If it were in the past, Song Wendong would have dared to take Qin Fen's kick. But ever since Qin Fen woke up, his opponent had completely changed. Song Wendong couldn't guarantee that he could take this kick.
