When Yan Changsheng heard Zhang Yan's words, he was startled at first, but soon after, he couldn't stop laughing. He waved his hand at Lu Junyang, who was waiting at the side, and said, "Your cultivation is not good enough. The battle between the two of us will inevitably affect you.
Lv Junyang knelt down and bowed thrice, "Teacher, I'll go now."
Yan Changsheng seemed to be impatient and waved his sleeves, "Go, go quickly."
Lv Junyang did not say anything else. He bowed solemnly again and left.
Yan Changsheng and Zhang Yan did not say a word as they listened to Lv Junyang's footsteps getting further away. The straw hut fell into silence for a while.
About a moment later, Ying Chunqiu's voice sounded from outside, "If the two of you want to fight, you can find another place."
Yan Changsheng turned his head and looked outside. He snorted and said, "I will not destroy your Shaoqing's treasured land."
Zhang Yan smiled, "It's not good to fight here. Why don't we go outside the heavens and stay with Reverend Yan?"
Yan Changsheng said loudly, "Alright!"
He was a straightforward person. Since he made up his mind, he soared into the sky and turned into a ray of light that shot into the sky.
At the same time, the stone he was sitting on cracked and turned into powder. The straw hut collapsed and turned into dust, dispersing into the wind.
Zhang Yan took a look and stood there for a while. He nodded at Ying Chunqiu and Elder Xue outside the mountain, then shook his sleeves and soared into the sky as well.
When Elder Xue saw this, he also moved, intending to follow. Ying Chunqiu quickly stopped him, "Elder Xue, where are you going? We'll just wait here. "
Elder Xue came to a realization and stopped. He slapped his forehead, "Ying Zhen Ren is right. I didn't think it through."
Yan Changsheng and Zhang Yan were both disciples of the Qincang School. When they fought, they would definitely use many secret techniques of the sect. As a Shaoqing disciple, it would be inappropriate for him to watch from the side.
Also, when two Grotto-heavens fought, if there was someone of the same generation watching from the side. It did not matter if it was intentional or not. It was also easy for others to misunderstand. The only way to avoid him was to stay far away. There was no reason to get close.
After Zhang Yan ascended to the sky, he broke through two layers of astral clouds in a row. Yan Changsheng's figure did not stop. He continued to climb. Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up as he followed along without any hesitation.
Yan Changsheng only stopped when he reached the Fifth Layer of Heaven. He turned around and said loudly, "This place is spacious enough. It's a suitable place for us to fight."
Zhang Yan also stopped moving. He first sensed his surroundings. Ever since he started cultivating, this was the first time he had returned to this place. The astral winds and whirlwinds here were extremely strong, and there was also the Heavenly Poison Fire. He had to constantly use his mana to defend against the invasion of external Qi.
But to him, it was nothing. If Daoist Dongtian was not afraid of losing his essence, he could even travel in the void.
Compared to this, he was even more concerned about Chen Xi's ability. If nothing unexpected happened, then Chen Xi would probably be the most difficult opponent he'd encountered since he'd started cultivating.
Yan Changsheng's cultivation technique was the Yuanchen Spiritual Cave Scripture, which was one of the five techniques and three scriptures in Qincang School.
This technique was actually divided into two parts. The first part explained the techniques of fighting, and there was a technique called the Origin Time Spirit Shuttle. It had one origin, two connections, three transformations, and four phases. From there, it went all the way up to twelve variations.
This technique wasn't hard to get started. Anyone in the Qincang School who had some talent could learn it after opening their meridians.
For example, Ning Chongxuan drove a Ruyi God Shuttle, and his shuttle technique came from this scripture.
Zhang Yan got this item, but he wasn't able to learn the shuttle technique. So he just used it as a magical treasure.
Another example was Yan Changsheng's disciple Luo Canghai. During the sword battle between the 16 sects, he used the Four Divisions Sky Shuttle to set up a formation that was really hard to break. Huo Xuan, Zhong Muqing, Luo Qingyu, and Zhang Yan worked together and Just Now took it away.
Even when Sect Leader Qin was cultivating, he used 12 Sky Shuttles as a weapon for fighting techniques.
If it wasn't for Zhang Yan's talent as a sword cultivator, and the fact that he had the Stars Sword Pill, he might have chosen to cultivate this Dao.
As for the second half of the technique, it was the essence of it, and it was specifically about how to sense the Divine Qi.
Once this technique was mastered, if someone had any thoughts about it, and said it out loud, or wrote it on a piece of paper, he would be able to sense it even if he was thousands of miles away. That was why those who knew about Yan Changsheng didn't call him by his name.
If it was used in fighting techniques, it would be even more amazing. Cultivators could use this to sense the changes in the Divine Qi. When fighting with the enemy, if the enemy was about to attack, or if they were lying in ambush, the cultivator's heart would be alerted, and the cultivator would be able to be prepared. If the enemy was careless, or if they were to retreat or waver, the cultivator would be able to sense it immediately.
If the person who cultivated this Dao was also skilled in fighting techniques, then no one would be able to defeat him on the battlefield.
However, the second half of the technique was extremely harsh, and it needed to be comprehended in a short period of time. If one's temperament wasn't compatible, then no matter how much one cultivated, it would be useless. Without reaching a certain level of attainment, one wouldn't know it. That way, 99% of the cultivators would stop.
Once a cultivator mastered the second half, they would be able to use both parts together, and their power would multiply.
Before Zhang Yan came out, he sat in the Hall of Du Zhen for half a month. First, he knew that there was a high chance that he would be able to fight against Yan Changsheng, so he was conserving his energy. Second, he was going through the ancient Daoist books to think of a way to deal with this technique.
Yan Changsheng stood in the sky with his hands behind his back, and said, "Palace Leader Zhang, since you have not been here for a long time, I won't take advantage of you. Why don't you make the first move?"
Zhang Yan didn't stand on ceremony, he nodded and said, "Zhenren Yan, I apologize for my lack of manners."
Then, he waved his hand, and with a "hua la" sound, countless purple lightning bolts appeared in the sky. The lightning bolts flashed and surged for thousands of miles.
Yan Changsheng shouted and pointed with his finger. He also used the Purple Cloud Heavenly Lightning. In an instant, the lightning bolts surged like waves crashing on the shore.
When the two sides collided, the sky was filled with crackling noises that could be heard all over the nine continents. The weather above the central pillar suddenly changed. Strong winds blew in all directions, and heavy rain poured down.
Ying Chunqiu and Elder Xue saw this and their expressions became serious. They both formed hand seals and summoned their mana to protect the continent beneath their feet.

Zhou Ruying also stared at the sky without blinking. Ever since Zhang Yan left the Qincang School, she had been paying attention to his movements. Now that she noticed the two of them fighting, she couldn't help but say, "Is the Qincang School going to resolve its internal conflict now? Who would have thought that they would send Zhang Yan this time. Senior apprentice-brother, who do you think will win? "
A shadow suddenly appeared in the flame beside her. He thought for a moment before saying, "That person is extremely skilled in fighting. If he was at his peak, I would definitely bet on him winning. But 500 years ago. This person was killed by the North Dark Sword. He doesn't cultivate in the Spirit Cave, so compared to back then, his cultivation has probably regressed instead of improving. This time, Zhang Yan is going on the orders of the Qincang School. He might even have a killing True Treasure. His chances of winning are not small. "
Zhou Ruying snorted. "Even if he really has such ability, he will also suffer a great loss if he wins."
The doppelganger replied, "That's only natural. But Zhang Yan has just formed his Grotto-Heaven and is in charge of the Du Zhen Palace. If he really wins, it won't be hard for him to recover his energy when he returns. "
Zhou Ruying laughed coldly, "Then he will at least be able to live in peace for hundreds of years."
The shadow also nodded in agreement.
When people in the Grotto-Heaven fought, it was the circulation of essence qi, while the inside contained magical powers and abilities.
When people of the same generation fought, the dharma would spread out for thousands of miles. At the same time, there would be countless magical powers and abilities clashing, scattering and gathering, repeating over and over again. Therefore, each time they fought, they would have to use up their essence qi.
And this is like arranging troops and fighting formations. Whichever area has the most essence Qi, if that area has the most essence Qi, if that area is heavily concentrated, then that area's supernatural power and magical power will definitely be tyrannical, then it will be able to attack with determination. If the essence Qi is less, it will be like the weak miscellaneous troops, once they encounter a strong attack, if they don't retreat, then naturally they will be defeated.
In a fight, one side had to think of ways to kill and wear down the opponent's essence qi. When the opponent's essence qi was depleted and he couldn't hold on any longer, he would naturally retreat.
However, there was a difficulty in this. The essence qi would change depending on the owner's thoughts. It could be consistent, but it could also be fleeting. Where it was strong and where it was weak, it was hard to tell from the outside. A normal outsider wouldn't be able to measure it.
Therefore, to prevent falling into the opponent's trap, one could only slowly test the waters and look for opportunities. This way, the outcome wouldn't be decided in a short period of time.
However, to kill a thousand of the enemy, one would lose eight hundred of their own. In such a fight, even the winner would be greatly injured. Therefore, people in the Grotto-Heaven would try to avoid fighting if they could. Other than being afraid of destroying the land, there was also this concern.
On the contrary, when Zhang Yan and Luo Mengze's dharma clashed head-on, if it wasn't for the fact that both sides were confident, or that they had no choice but to fight, it was extremely rare to see.
Qincang School, inside the Upper Extreme Hall.
Sect Leader Qin sat on the jade platform and was looking up into the sky.
At this moment, a clear air flew up. When it landed, Qin Yu's figure appeared. She hurriedly said, "Senior Brother, did you send Zhang Yan to deal with Eldest Senior Brother?"
Sect Leader Qin slowly said, "This matter needs to be resolved eventually."
Qin Yu's beautiful eyes looked over and stared at the Sect Leader for a moment. Suddenly, she chuckled and used her hand to stroke her hair. Her voice suddenly rose by a few octaves and she sneered, "Think about how capable Eldest Senior Brother is. How could Zhang Yan be his opponent?"
Sect Leader Qin indifferently said, "Junior Sister, if that's what you think, then why are you in such a hurry to come here?"
When Qin Yu heard this, her jade-like expression couldn't help but change. After a while, she bit her lower lip and turned to leave. Just Now, however, the moment she moved, she saw countless waves rushing in from all directions, firmly locking her in place. She actually couldn't fly out.
Sect Leader Qin's calm voice came from behind, "Junior Sister, don't be impatient. Just sit in this hall and watch the outcome of this battle."
At this moment, Qin Yu suddenly came to a realization. No wonder on her way here, the restrictive formation in the Upper Extreme Hall was activated and there was not the slightest bit of obstruction. It seemed that coming here this time, she had already fallen into this Sect Leader Senior Brother's calculations, so that she wouldn't disturb the situation.
She turned around and said with a complicated expression, "Senior Brother, could it be that you don't care at all about the friendship between fellow disciples and insist on putting Eldest Senior Brother to death?"
Sect Leader Qin sighed and said, "Junior Sister, I know that you and Senior Brother Yan have a deep friendship, but Senior Brother Yan has killed the people of the same generation in the sect. In the past, I could pretend to be deaf and blind and not care about it, but this is an extraordinary time. If I want to carry out a great plan, I must first gather the hearts of the people. Then, Senior Brother must make way for me."
When Qin Yu heard this, she was a little puzzled, but after a while, she reacted. Her jade-like face paled and she said with a trembling voice, "Senior Brother, you, you …"
Sect Leader Qin stood up and walked a few steps. He raised his eyes to look at the purple clouds in the distant sky. Amidst the bursts of thunder, he turned his back to Qin Yu and said, "Back then, the matter that Master didn't dare to do and was unwilling to do, let me, as a disciple, do it on his behalf."
