The appearance of the Sect Grand Elder had already surprised the preliminary participants. As the most respected person in the Dafang Sect, why would he appear in the preliminary?
However, what shocked him even more was the Sect Grand Elder's words. That Mo Wen actually had the Cultivation of the Embryonic Breathing realm. How was that possible?
However, the dignified Sect Grand Elder had appeared and confronted Mo Wen, seemingly treating him as a great enemy.
"Retreat!"
Zhou Zhichong shouted in a low voice. He pulled a few preliminary members of the Zhou Clan to retreat, distancing themselves from the two of them. If they were to get involved in the battle of the Embryonic Breathing realm, they would definitely die.
Not only the Zhou Clan, but all the trial participants, including the Jiang Clan, retreated a few hundred meters in one go before they felt slightly more at ease.
However, their gazes were all focused on the battlefield. They stared in shock at the youth who remained calm and unfazed even when facing off against their supreme elder.
…
"Unfortunately, you're not a member of the Jiang Clan."
Jiang Quanfu sighed and looked at Mo Wen with slight pity. Then, he suddenly made his move. A frightening dark blue Qi of Sword bloomed from his hand. The next moment, a long and thin sword appeared in his hand. It was swallowing and spitting out dark blue light, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue.
Ten streaks of Sword Qi instantly enveloped Mo Wen. The azure blue light was like an ocean.
The strength of the Qi was like the sea. Once a strong practitioner in the Embryonic Breathing realm made a move, the power was terrifying. With Jiang Quanfu as the center, the ground around him started to crack. The ground was split open by the Qi of the Sword.
Facing a strong practitioner in the Embryonic Breathing realm, Mo Wen's expression turned serious. The difference between the Embryonic Breathing realm and the Qi Nucleation realm was too big. Jiang Quanfu was not someone that those people from before could compare to.
His figure flashed and split into a dozen or so afterimages. He did not clash head-on with the Sword Qi, but nimbly passed through the Sword Qi that filled the sky. He moved forward and appeared in front of Jiang Quanfu.
"Good movement technique."
Jiang Quanfu raised his eyebrows. Mo Wen was able to escape from his Qi of Sword so easily. Even he was a little amazed.
"But that's all."
Almost at the moment when Mo Wen appeared in front of him, a punch was sent out silently. The terrifying Inner Qi was like a mountain pressing down on Mo Wen's head. Mo Wen's eyes widened.
He punched out. The heavens and the earth were locked down tightly like a cage, and there was no space to escape.
It was the Square Fist again, but this time it was Jiang Quanfu. Its lethality was almost at its peak. It seemed like it could even crush a small mountain.
A terrifying pressure came from all directions, and even space seemed to have become solid. Even his blood vessels and internal organs were under a terrifying pressure.
If an ancient martial art practitioner in the Sea of Qi realm were to be placed in this space, he would definitely explode in an instant and become a pile of minced meat.
Mo Wen shouted in a low voice. He had no intention of retreating at all. Instead, he welcomed the pressure of the fist. A glaring golden light exploded from his body. His entire body was shining with golden light, as though he had become a person made of pure gold. A golden light flashed and appeared in front of Jiang Quanfu.
As he punched out, the roar of a dragon and the roar of a tiger suddenly rang out. The terrifying sound wave caused the heads of the trial participants who were 300 meters away to sink. They were so dizzy that they almost fell to the ground.
When Mo Wen's fist and Jiang Quanfu's fist collided, a muffled sound was emitted from the middle. The next moment, a terrifying wave of Qi exploded from the tip of their fists. It spread crazily in all directions and swept out like a wave.
Both Mo Wen and Jiang Quanfu flew back tens of meters before they could stabilize their bodies.
The strong wind swept through. The surroundings were a mess.
The people who were watching the fight from afar were all shocked. Under the strong wind, they retreated another 100 or 200 meters.
"Such a dense Inner Qi."
Jiang Quanfu looked at Mo Wen in shock. This lad's Cultivation of Inner Qi definitely exceeded the normal Qi Nucleation realm. It was almost comparable to his. However, Mo Wen did not seem to be in the Embryonic Breathing realm, as he did not sense the aura that the Embryonic Breathing realm should have.
When one's Cultivation reached the Embryonic Breathing realm, it was no longer a simple accumulation of Inner Qi. Instead, it was a qualitative change. However, the purity of Mo Wen's Inner Qi was not as good as that of an ancient martial art practitioner in the Embryonic Breathing realm. Compared to the Embryonic Breathing realm, it seemed to be a little worse.
"What realm are you in exactly?"
Jiang Quanfu looked at Mo Wen with a gloomy expression. His expression also turned serious. The youth in front of him was a little too strange. He did not know what realm he was in. However, there was no doubt that his ability was almost enough to compete with him.
Just now, the two of them had exchanged blows. Although it was just a simple punch, it was enough to test the depth of the other party.
In terms of pure Inner Qi, Mo Wen was almost on par with him.
"Naturally, I am in the Qi Nucleation realm. Do you have any questions?"
Mo Wen curled his lips into a smile. He was not lying.
"Qi Nucleation realm?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Quanfu laughed coldly. Could the Qi Nucleation realm have such frightening ability? He was obviously saying that the depth of his Inner Qi was no different from the beginning stage of the Embryonic Breathing realm. It definitely exceeded the Qi Nucleation realm.
Perhaps he had used some special method to strengthen his Inner Qi, causing the strength of his Inner Qi to be comparable to the beginning stage of the Embryonic Breathing realm. However, his body had not broken through to the Embryonic Breathing realm. Hence, there was this kind of Cultivation of Inner Qi that was not like the Embryonic Breathing realm, but was clearly comparable to the Embryonic Breathing realm.
However, for such people to use special methods to increase their Cultivation, there would certainly be many drawbacks. Their actual combat ability could not possibly be comparable to that of a genuine Embryonic Breathing realm strong practitioner. Moreover, such methods were usually used to spoil things through excessive enthusiasm. Once used, it would cause the foundation to be unstable, and it would be difficult for them to have higher achievements in this lifetime.
In order to take revenge, Wang Yinru would do anything without considering the consequences. Doing so was tantamount to ruining a young genius and cutting off her son's future.
Jiang Quanfu thought that Mo Wen's situation was definitely Wang Yinru's doing. After all, not every ancient martial art practitioner in the Qi Nucleation realm could strengthen their Inner Qi to such an extent. They must have borrowed the help of others to be able to do so.
Moreover, Mo Wen had at least the Cultivation of the acme of the Qi Nucleation realm. Anyway, it was impossible for him to increase his Inner Qi by so much.
In an instant, Jiang Quanfu thought of many things. However, they were all just his presumptuous imagination.
Only Mo Wen himself knew what had happened in reality.
"No matter what realm you are in, once I kill you, everything will naturally be over."
Jiang Quanfu took a step forward. His entire body was suspended in mid-air. The thin sword in his hands was placed horizontally in his hands, as though he was praying devoutly.
His previous attack was merely a test. Now that he had tested Mo Wen's background, it was naturally time to use his trump card. It was easy for him to defeat a strong practitioner like Mo Wen. However, if he wanted to kill him completely, it would most likely be very difficult.
Hence, he no longer had any reservations. He unleashed his strongest power, hoping to slay Mo Wen with his sword.
"Sword of Will."
Mo Wen looked at Jiang Quanfu, who was suspended in mid-air. His strange actions caused a glint of surprise to flash in his eyes. He actually knew the practice method of the Sword of Will!
The Sword of Will was not a conventional method in the ancient martial arts world. To be precise, the Sword of Will was a little like an Immortal Cultivator's method, similar to the Immortal Cultivator's Flying Sword Technique. In reality, the Flying Sword Technique was one of the types of the Sword of Will.
However, the Sword of Will unleashed by an ancient martial art practitioner was naturally worlds apart from the Sword of Will unleashed by an Immortal Cultivator. There was no way to compare them.
However, it was not simple for Jiang Quanfu to know how to use his will to refine the long sword. He must have had some special encounters. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to practice the Sword of Will.
Mo Wen had come into contact with the Immortal Cultivator world before. His understanding of the Immortal Cultivator world was no less than that of a normal Immortal Cultivator. Moreover, as he was not an Immortal Cultivator, he knew many things that were between an Immortal Cultivator and an ancient martial art practitioner. In reality, there were many similarities between the ancient martial arts and the Immortal Cultivator.
In the Immortal Cultivator world, there were Martial Arts Gods who specialized in martial arts. They used martial arts to enter the path, transforming their mortal bodies into immortal bodies and transcending mortality to become saints.
In the past, Mo Wen was unable to practice immortal cultivation. In order to increase his ability, he researched many things that were interlinked between the ancient martial art practitioners and the Immortal Cultivators. The Sword of Will was one of them. Although he could not rely on the Flying Sword to soar into the sky and burrow into the ground like the Immortal Cultivators, he could still unleash some simple Flying Sword Techniques.
In his previous life, Mo Wen was an expert in the Sword of Will. He could use his will to control the sword to kill enemies from 500 meters away. He had almost reached the pinnacle of what an ancient martial art practitioner could achieve.
Hence, when Jiang Quanfu unleashed the Sword of Will, Mo Wen knew the ins and outs.
However, to unleash the Sword of Will, one had to have the Cultivation of the Embryonic Breathing realm. Under the Embryonic Breathing realm, one's will was unable to affect the long sword. Hence, even if one had the practice method of the Sword of Will, they would not be able to practice it.
Will was a very illusory thing, but it truly existed. Under normal circumstances, the will of a normal person was very weak. Although the strength of the will was different for different people, it was usually within the very weak range.
The will of an ancient martial art practitioner was far stronger than that of a normal person because they practiced ancient martial arts. The higher the Cultivation of an ancient martial art practitioner, the stronger the will, and the easier it was to emit it.
The reason why the higher the Cultivation of an ancient martial art practitioner, the stronger their perception was, and they could use their perception to discover a target that was very far away, was because of their will. Some ancient martial art practitioners with strong wills could even develop premonitions. They could usually predict the good or bad of a matter, and from there, they could avoid the bad.
When one's Cultivation reached the Embryonic Breathing realm, or even the Golden Elixir realm, it was very difficult to kill him. A large part of the reason was that they had an extremely strong sense of danger. Usually, they could sense the danger before it arrived, and then they could avoid the fatal danger.
It was a pity that Mo Wen's Cultivation had always been too low. Initially, before he joined the Immortal Cultivation sect, his Cultivation was in the Embryonic Breathing realm. Later on, the things that he researched were almost all things that could only be used by those with Cultivation above the Embryonic Breathing realm, such as the Sword of Will. There were even many things that could only be used by those in the Golden Elixir realm. If one's Cultivation was not high enough, they would not be able to unleash it.
Hence, Mo Wen had a body full of abilities and broad knowledge. However, because his Cultivation was not high enough, he could not unleash it. (To be continued.)
