"Slash!"
Nangong Huang roared, and the Deep Abyss Rainbow Sacred Sword in his hand unleashed a terrifying sword ray. It was like a vast, endless river.
The sword ray locked onto the sword qi clone, making it impossible to escape!
Meanwhile, Murong Xuan, Jun Yi, Qin Wushuang, and the others also unleashed their ultimate techniques. Several different types of sword Daos exploded!
Under these attacks, even though the sword qi clone was powerful, it was still blasted into a ball of sword qi and dispersed.
"We did it!"
Nangong Huang, Murong Xuan, and the others were overjoyed.
"This is great. After almost a month of fighting, we've finally defeated this sword qi clone. I'm so tired," Zhuo Han said as he lay on the ground.
The others also heaved a sigh of relief.
At that moment, Chu Kuangren walked over from afar.
Everyone quickly bowed.
"Greetings, Sect Leader."
"You're welcome."
Chu Kuangren nodded and said, "Twenty-nine days. You guys have finally defeated this sword qi clone in twenty-nine days. How should I put this result?"
"I told you guys to defeat the sword qi clone within a month, but you guys really took almost a month to defeat it."
Everyone was a little ashamed when they heard him.
"Forget it, you guys have passed. This stage of training is over, so let's move on to the next stage."
Chu Kuangren smiled.
Everyone looked at each other when they heard him.
There was a next stage?
Just when everyone was confused, Chu Kuangren snapped his fingers.
Suddenly, nine sword qi clones appeared.
Seeing these sword qi clones, everyone could already guess what was going on. They could not help but gulp. It couldn't be.
"The next stage will be one sword qi clone per person."
Chu Kuangren said.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
It couldn't be! It really was like that!
They had surrounded a sword qi clone for almost a month before they finally defeated it, and now they were going to take one each?!
F * ck me.
How long would it take for them to continue fighting?
"Sect Leader, you can't play this way."
Nangong Huang smiled bitterly.
"Why, do you have something to say?"
Chu Kuangren glanced at him.
"No, not at all."
Nangong Huang gulped and quickly shook his head. Even if he had something to say, he had to hold it in. Otherwise, he would be in deep trouble if he offended the Sect Leader.
"That's settled then."
Chu Kuangren lifted his arm and cast the Spring Breeze Healing Technique to heal everyone's injuries. Then, he sent them to deal with the clone.
The nine Daoists left one after another.
Shang Qingxue stood on the spot, not knowing what to do. She asked, "Sect Master, what should I do next?"
Every Daoist had a Sword Qi Doppelganger, except for her.
She couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive. Among these people, she was the weakest, so she was the least effective in dealing with the Sword Qi Doppelgangers.
Chu Kuangren would not abandon her just like that, would he?
"You, I have other plans. Come with me."
Shang Qingxue followed Chu Kuangren to an empty space. Chu Kuangren gently lifted his hand and a red light barrier appeared out of thin air, enveloping Shang Qingxue within it.
"What is this?"
"It's something I've learned recently."
Chu Kuangren said indifferently.
Over the past few days, while training Nangong Huang and the others, he did not slack off in his own cultivation. He summarized and organized the methods he had learned in the past so that they could be better integrated into the 10,000 Powers of Coalescence Dao Form.
During this process, he gained many insights and derived some new techniques from the countless methods he had learned.
This red light barrier was one of them.
"I call this light barrier the Scorching Inferno!"
"It will constantly release high temperatures to burn your enemies. Stay inside and use your Frost Daoist Physique to resist the high temperatures."
That was the training method Chu Kuangren came up with for Shang Qingxue.
Using high temperatures to stimulate the growth of the Deep Freeze Daoist Physique.
Inside the red light barrier.
The temperature was rising rapidly. The scorching heat turned the air inside the barrier into heatwaves. Even the light rays were slightly distorted, and the flowers and trees on the ground were instantly burned to ashes in a few breaths' time.
Shang Qingxue channeled the frost energy within her body to resist the high temperatures.
"Oh, right. The temperature of this Scorching Inferno will double every two hours. After twelve hours, even an Honorable would be instantly burned to ashes." Chu Kuangren chuckled.
Shang Qingxue could not help but feel her scalp tingle when she heard that. "Even Honorables will die? Sect Leader, I … I'm just a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. "
Although she had improved a lot in the past few days and had broken through from the Golden Core Realm to the Nascent Soul Realm, she was still miles away from being an Honorable.
"Don't worry. The spiritual power that I've left in this Scorching Inferno can only last for six hours. It won't kill you, but six hours is still quite a challenge for you."
"Heh, enjoy it."
Chu Kuangren chuckled before he turned around and left.
Shang Qingxue looked at Chu Kuangren's back helplessly.
Two hours later, the temperature of the Scorching Inferno doubled. Shang Qingxue's face was already flushed red from the heat and she was panting heavily. There was no sweat on her body because it evaporated the moment it came out.
Four hours later, the ground had begun to crack. Shang Qingxue squeezed out what little spiritual power she had left in her body and channeled her Deep Freeze Physique.
Four hours later, Shang Qingxue had no more spiritual power left. However, the Deep Freeze Physique was still producing cold waves under the stimulation of the high temperature. However, the process was very slow, like milking a cow.
When it was close to six hours later, Shang Qingxue was already lying on the ground. The clothes on her body were almost burnt off, and only a few pieces of cloth were left to cover her vital parts.
Her back, arms, thighs, and other parts of her body were severely burnt and charred. She lay on the ground, almost at her last gasp.
When the six hours were over, the Scorching Inferno disappeared. A gentle spring breeze brushed past Shang Qingxue and quickly healed her body.
Shang Qingxue, who was on the verge of fainting, gradually regained consciousness. She looked around and said, "I'm still alive …"
Back in the Scorching Inferno, she thought she was going to die at any moment. That feeling was too unbearable.
"Yes, you're still alive. Why? Do you still want to participate in the training? If you quit now, you won't have to suffer anymore. "
Chu Kuangren's voice rang in her ears. It was like the whisper of the devil, and it made her want to give up.
'Just leave. If I leave, I won't have to suffer anymore.'
She had all the time in the world to slowly cultivate. There was no need for her to endure this inhumane training and suffer in pain.
"Qingxue, you must know that in this world, only when you're strong can you control your own life."
"Don't be fooled by the fact that you're the Shang Clan Leader now. All of this was given to me by Sect Leader Chu. There are still many in the direct line of descent who look down on you. It's only because of Sect Leader Chu that they don't dare to touch me."
"Qingxue, you should go to the Black Heaven Sect."
"You have the Deep Freeze Physique, so you might be able to shine there. Once you're strong enough, your father will be able to gain a foothold in the Shang Clan, and no one will look down on you …"
In a trance, Shang Qingxue recalled what her father said to her in front of the Black Heaven Sect, and a look of determination gradually appeared in her eyes.
"I won't quit!"
"I want to become stronger, so strong that no one will look down on my parents, so strong that I can control my own life. I won't quit!"
Chu Kuangren smirked. "That's good. You're ambitious. In that case, I'll add another half an hour to tomorrow's training."
Shang Qingxue was speechless.
She finally understood that Chu Kuangren only had one rule when he trained them … As long as he could not kill them, he would kill them!
'A demon!'
'This Sect Leader must be a demon!'
