Hearing what Zhang Yan said, the old man laughed loudly and said, "What an arrogant junior. Even the 18 Daemon Kings of my Chongyue Truth Temple don't dare to provoke us casually in the outer endless sea. You still want to fight the prodigies of my sect? You have to get past me first. " His eyes lit up and he stared at Zhang Yan. "I, Beigong Hao, am also a Mystic Light Realm cultivator. Let me fight first today and see what's different about the disciples of Qincang School." When Zhang Yan heard this, his expression didn't change. However, the sword pellet in his ancestral aperture actually emitted a trace of excitement. It faintly assumed a posture that was very different from before.
Beigong Hao laughed loudly and waved his hand. A beam of blue light rose from the bottom of his feet and swept him into the air. The beam of light was like a raging waterfall, rumbling like waves. It was an extraordinary sight to behold.
Looking down from above, he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of gray gas. In an instant, the gas spread all over the top of the mountain. Then, he waved his hand and a flag flew out. He tossed it above his head and a flag gate as tall as a person appeared out of thin air. He sneered a few times and went into the flag gate, hiding his figure.
This "Body Disappearing Flag Gate" could protect his body within this magical treasure for four hours. As long as this flag gate was not destroyed, he would be safe and sound.
His voice came from inside the flag gate. "Junior, today, let me see the power of the" Yin Yang Flying Knife "of my Chongyue Truth Temple." Chongyue Truth Temple didn't have many superior techniques like the ten great sects of the Xuan Gate. They only had one extremely powerful Xuan Art called "Origin Yin Yang Flying Knife".
Once this knife was mastered, it could injure the spirit and cut off the head. It was almost as powerful as a flying sword. This was the reason why the temple dared to compete with the ten great sects of the Xuan Gate.
What was even more dangerous was that this knife was formed from a ball of essence qi and was created according to one's will. Under the cover of the grey mist, it was even more difficult to defend against.
Although Beigong Hao had only managed to refine five flying daggers due to his limited cultivation, he was not afraid of any cultivators of the same generation other than Core Formation cultivators. He did not even bother to bring an extra magic treasure.
Zhang Yan had been looking for an opening, but this Beigong Hao was obviously experienced in setting up traps. His series of movements were flawless.
Since that was the case, they might as well have three fair battles.
Zhang Yan had heard of the formidability of the Origin Yin Yang Flying Dagger. Rumor had it that this dagger could slay a person before they could even make a sound, and with a single strike, the body and spirit would be obliterated. Today, he finally had the chance to experience it.
He was paying close attention and didn't know that a black saber was silently condensing in the surging gray mist around him. It was flickering behind him.
After the saber circled a few times in the gray mist, it suddenly flashed like lightning and appeared behind Zhang Yan in the blink of an eye. It fiercely slashed at his neck. Before the edge of the saber reached him, a wave of cold air had already penetrated his skin and bones.
However, at this moment, a sword ray flew out and with a "chi" sound cut the black saber. The two collided and immediately cut the saber ray into pieces. It turned into a ball of black gas that circled in place and then went back into the mist.
Zhang Yan's eyes flashed slightly. He was surprised. It wasn't because the saber had come stealthily, but because after this sword ray appeared, he didn't need to use his will to control it. Even if it leaped out to protect its master, it would return after one strike and not move.
But now, it did not return. Instead, it wandered around him, faintly protecting him. From time to time, it would make a sound as if it was demonstrating to the flying dagger. It was more agile and lively. It must be the result of the true consciousness becoming stronger.
Inside the flag gate, Beigong Hao was surprised and said in a low voice, "Junior, you're actually a sword cultivator. I've underestimated you." He was also shocked. If it was a normal cultivator, he wouldn't be afraid. But from the looks of it, it was clearly a sword cultivator who had cultivated true consciousness. It was impossible for a sneak attack to succeed.
If he couldn't take down Zhang Yan in four hours, he would have nowhere to run when the flag gate closed and counterattacked.
Even though he was currently seated within the array flag gate, his expression had turned a little more solemn. Originally, he only wanted to give Zhang Yan some face, and did not want to do anything to him. However, now that he felt that his life was in danger, his killing intent was truly ignited.
He made up his mind and chanted an incantation. He used all his strength to activate the flying dagger technique. He must kill Zhang Yan on the spot.
With Zhang Yan's full concentration, four black flying daggers appeared at the same time in this grey mist, attacking Zhang Yan from four different directions.
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "How can you hurt me like that?" He gave a clear shout and shook the sword pellet away. In a split second, four sword pellets appeared and slashed at the four flying knives without showing any weakness.
Beigong Hao was shocked when he saw that Zhang Jie was using a technique like Light Splitting Shadow. But he quickly calmed down. This Yin Yang Flying Dagger was not just a technique to kill people. It also contained a very powerful knife technique. After hundreds of years of hard training, he was confident that he was not afraid of anyone of the same generation.
This time Zhang Yan wanted to take the opportunity to train his true knowledge in the sword, and when he saw the saber ray leaping and leaping, unexpectedly displaying a set of brilliant saber skills, he was delighted to see it. He roused his spirits and took out his sword ball to fight with it.
The two of them exchanged blows. Qi shot out and collided. But Beigong Hao had been immersed in the Yin Yang Flying Dagger Technique for a long time and was indeed very exquisite. In comparison, his sword technique was even better than Zhang Yan's.
If it was purely a competition of four sword pellets, Zhang Yan would be at a disadvantage. However, he also had his own methods. Every time the flying dagger found a gap, he would not care about it and split out another sword ray to shatter it. Then, he would continue to fight with four sword rays. He had the intention of using this person to hone his sword skills.
At this moment, Mountain River Boy's voice resounded in Zhang Yan's mind, "Master, that Saber Qi borrows Qi to take form. Even if it's shattered, it can be condensed again with a drop of Kui Water Essence Qi. Why don't I use the Mountain River Cloud Abyssal Painting to absorb it and see how much Essence Qi he can use." Zhang Yan smiled and communicated with Mountain River Child. He said secretly, "No hurry, this Kui Water Essence is what I am looking for. This old man hides in the flag door. He is obviously very slippery and afraid of death. If he sees that I have collected the essence and have a way to restrain him, he probably won't fight with me anymore. Let me slowly find a chance to trick him out of the flag door. It won't be too late to deal with him then."
After that, he quietly separated a sword shadow and flew to the flag door to ambush.
After the two fought for an hour, Beigong Hao became anxious and hid in the flag door. Even if Zhang Yan couldn't do anything to him, he also couldn't do anything to Zhang Yan.
And he could clearly see that Zhang Yan still had a sword ray that was ready to be released at the critical moment to protect himself. According to the current situation, if he waited for the four hours of maintaining the flag door to pass, his figure would be exposed in front of Zhang Yan. At that time, he was even less confident.
It was hateful that he usually only used the flying dagger to bully others and never used other magic weapons. He thought in his heart, "If I can cultivate another flying dagger, I can kill this thief easily. Now it seems that I can only use that Yang Knife."
The Yin Yang Flying Dagger of Origin had both Yin and Yang. When Yin and Yang worked together, it could display endless mysteries. If it was cultivated to a high level, it could transform into millions of Yin Yang Heavenly Knives and fight with thousands of flying swords.
However, up until now, Beigong Hao had been using the Yin Knife to fight and the Yang Knife to hide. He was waiting for Zhang Yan to get used to the Yin Knife and then he would attack and kill him when he least expected it.
Now that the situation was in a stalemate, if he didn't make a move now, he might not have the chance when the flag door's time limit was up.
Therefore, he urged the Yin Knife a few more times and found a gap to break out of the encirclement. He went straight for Zhang Yan.
As he expected, Zhang Yan released the protective sword ray to meet the knife Qi.
Beigong Hao was waiting for this moment. His eyes focused and he immediately formed a spell. A white light suddenly flew out of the gray gas and slashed at Zhang Yan, who was completely defenseless.
This saber was refined from the Ninth-Water Essence Qi. It was fierce and sharp, hard to defend against, and fast. After a flash of white light, a "Cha" sound was heard. Zhang Yan was cut into two and fell to the ground. Suddenly, blood gushed out like a fountain.
Beigong Hao couldn't help but be overjoyed. He laughed and couldn't wait to jump out of the flag door. But just as he took a step, a light flew out from the ground and his face stiffened.
The cold light flew past his neck and he fell to the ground with his head separated from his body.
A moment later, a panicked Original Spirit emerged from the headless body. It first looked around in confusion, then it was frightened and quickly jumped up, as if it wanted to escape.
Zhang Yan's figure slowly appeared from not far away. When he saw the Original Spirit, he smiled and grabbed it, sucking the Original Spirit into his palm. Holding it in his hand, he teasingly said, "Fellow Daoist Beigong, where are you going?" Just now, he had used the [True Form] to create a fake body to die in his place. If Beigong Hao had paid close attention, he would definitely have seen the flaw. But he was too eager to win and didn't know that Zhang Yan had already sent a sword ray to ambush him under the flag door. He only took one step out and was killed on the spot.
Beigong Hao was frightened out of his wits and begged, "Fellow Daoist, please spare my Yuan Ling. I'm willing to do anything for you." Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Oh? If that's the case, I think this' Yin Yang Li Yuan Flying Knife 'is not bad. Is Fellow Daoist Beigong willing to tell me the method? "
Even if he didn't practice this method himself, he could still use it to exchange for treasures and methods. Since this person's Original Spirit had fallen into his hands and was still begging for mercy, then there was no harm in asking.
Beigong Hao was a little hesitant. It wasn't that he was worried about the method being leaked. This method wasn't something that could be mastered overnight. Moreover, he only knew the first three stages of the method. Even if he gave it to someone else to practice, could it be stronger than the Chongyue True Temple?
What he was worried about was whether Zhang Yan would really spare him after what he did.
Zhang Yan was in no hurry to urge him. He was waiting for him to make a decision. At this moment, Mountain River Child said in his ear, "Master, I've already collected the Kui Water Essence and the Ninth-Water Essence. I don't know if Beigong Hao still has them."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Slow down. I haven't collected the interest yet."
He raised his hand and threw out the 'Nine Absorption Devil Slip'. As soon as the slip appeared, it was like a vicious shark that smelled blood. It scuttled towards Beigong Hao's corpse, circled a few times, and sucked the head and body clean. Then, it flew back into his sleeve.
