Jiang Wang suddenly had a thought when he saw Elder Yun You's fighting spirit rising.
Could it be that the welcoming boy had been in contact with his reincarnation for a long time and said those words just to create a chance for his reincarnation to turn the tables?
It was not that Jiang Wang was used to conspiracy theories, but that he had experienced too many conspiracies. Moreover, there was Jiang Yan in his body that he had to be on guard against at all times.
But this thought only flashed through his mind. As the master of the Cloud Top Asgard, he was sure that the welcoming boy's past figure had disappeared and would not appear again.
Moreover, he had considered the matter of Old Man Yun You and was very confident about it.
Jiang Wang had always been a strong-willed person. But recently, he felt that he was prone to distracting thoughts.
He used his spirit as a sword to cut off all distracting thoughts. He looked at Elder Yun You and then the sword flashed. He followed the sword.
When the long sword was in the air, his body and mind had turned into the sword itself, isolating all distracting thoughts.
This was a pure fighting stance.
Sincere to the heart, to the will, and to the sword.
The sword was a down-and-out famous scholar. It was unrestrained but mournful. It was elegant and sharp.
Elder Yun You was determined to fight with his life. He did not retreat but advanced. He held the Wind Seal and pushed it forward.
But Jiang Wang came too quickly. Before the wind and clouds could gather, they were cut apart. So he flicked his fingers and turned the Mountain Seal. This seal combined suppression and defense. It was very impressive.
The long sword slashed across and hit the vague "Mountain" character. The green mountain was faint, heavy and majestic.
Chang Xiangsi was blocked by the Mountain Seal. Jiang Wang did not change his sword momentum. He made a gesture with his left hand and the chains that imprisoned him emerged from the void behind Elder Yun You. This was a legalist technique and had its own rules.
Elder Yun You scattered the Mountain Seal and pressed down with his palm. Invisible ripples spread out and a translucent light shield trapped the black chains. At the same time, the light shield tried to trap Jiang Wang.
He had used this technique in the Welcoming Guest Pavilion. Jiang Wang could not be trapped again. The sea of flowers spread out around Elder Cloud Traveler. Every time Elder Cloud Traveler's formless ripples moved forward, he would be blasted by the flame flowers several times. He could only regretfully stop and start a tug-of-war in midair.
Jiang Wang was temporarily lost in Elder Cloud Traveler's vision. All he could see was the endless flame flowers. Suddenly looking up, Jiang Wang drew his sword and descended from the sky, his aura imposing.
Facing this sword, Elder Cloud Traveler did not face it head-on. Instead, he clenched his fist in front of his chest. Countless light feathers exploded with him as the center.
Jiang Wang, who had just leaped out of the sea of flame flowers, happened to be blocked by this sharp feather of light.
Indeed, Old Man Yun You had a reason to be unconvinced, and he had the right to be unconvinced. His combat instincts were amazing. Even though he couldn't see through Hong Zhuang's illusion, he instinctively chose the most reliable response, making Jiang Wang's surprise attack fail.
The feather of light was soft and gentle, but it possessed an extremely sharp power. It slashed at Jiang Wang's Sword Qi like metal clashing against metal.
Jiang Wang's surprise attack was blocked, but he was still calm and composed. He reached out his hand with his sword, and the True Samadhi Fire had already ignited.
Essence, Qi, and Spirit merged into one. As soon as this fire appeared, the invisible ripples that were entangled with the sea of flame flowers were instantly burned away. The True Samadhi Fire even burned in the opposite direction, forcing Elder Cloud Traveler to stop the related secret technique. Even Jiang Wang's own sea of flame flowers was burned away, creating a path. This showed how domineering the True Samadhi Fire was.
And those falling light feathers collapsed one after another in front of the rapidly approaching True Samadhi Fire.
This collapse was the best way to deal with the True Samadhi Fire. It not only consumed the power of the True Samadhi Fire, but also prevented it from spreading.
Elder Cloud Traveler quickly made a decision. With a thought, he gathered all the light feathers, wanting to exhaust the power of the True Samadhi Fire in the shortest time possible. Just like Dou Mian, once the Battle Golden Body ran out of time, he had many ways to suppress it.
However, the light feathers that filled the sky had just gathered when Jiang Wang casually flicked his hand, allowing the True Samadhi Fire to entangle with the light feathers. He leaped up with his sword, his body moving like lightning, drawing a neat arc in the air, avoiding the light feathers, and was already in front of Elder Cloud Traveler.
This sword was as hot as the sun, flamboyant and sharp, it was the so-called young and frivolous sword.
Elder Cloud Traveler hurriedly formed a seal, but how could he make it in time? He was directly pierced by the sword, nailing him to the ground!
His body was too old.
When the realm was suppressed and he used all kinds of secret techniques to fight, it was not obvious. After the Starlight Sacred Tower was isolated, in the life and death battle with Jiang Wang, his reaction could not always keep up.
Ever since he removed the supernatural powers, Jiang Wang often used the True Samadhi Fire to win, but this time, he only used it to open up the situation. After all, in a battle, there were hundreds of possibilities, and victory was the most fundamental. A true powerhouse did not believe in supernatural powers. Supernatural powers were only one of the means, no matter how strong they were, they had to obey the battle itself.
On the top of Mount Chi Yun, Jiang Wang pinned Elder Cloud Traveler to the ground. A strand of his long hair hung on the side of his face, but it could not hide his overly sharp appearance at this moment. The light feather, flame flower, and True Samadhi Fire behind him were all dissipating.
Elder Cloud Traveler was vomiting blood, and Jiang Wang pressed on his sword, asking —
"Do you admit defeat?"
This battle should be said to have been decided long ago, Jiang Wang did not have the confidence to give up the advantage. If not for the opportunity to revive the Cloud Top Immortal Palace, he would not have given this battle a chance.
Elder Cloud Traveler stared blankly with his turbid eyes, the blood at the corner of his mouth could not be stopped, flowing along the wrinkles. It was unknown how his old body could have so much blood to flow.
"I don't know how you started cultivating."
Jiang Wang said slowly: "But for a Meridian Opening Elixir, I went deep into the thieves' den, suffered thirteen wounds, and narrowly escaped death. I think it will not be easier than you. "
"There are many unfairness in this world, some people are born to stand higher than you, see further than you, but pure hatred and resentment cannot solve any problems."
"Only hard work. The only fair thing is hard work. "
"Hard work will not be wasted."
"Try hard to stand higher and farther."
Jiang Wang was trying very hard to "convince" Elder Cloud Traveler, so that he could die convinced, and not have to carry his unwillingness to the next life.
But Elder Cloud Traveler just shook his head and asked in return: "I did not … work hard enough?"
Jiang Wang was silent.
Not to mention the reincarnation of the previous lives, just this life alone. In order to obtain the Cloud Top Immortal Palace, Elder Cloud Traveler had worked harder than everyone present, even sacrificing 80 years of his life.
Now, how could he say that Elder Cloud Traveler did not work hard enough?
But there were indeed some things that could not be achieved by hard work.
"I can see that you are not the same as those young masters and young ladies. I am convinced that I will die in your hands. At least you have given me a certain degree of fairness. "
Elder Cloud Traveler looked at Jiang Wang, and with the last of his strength, he glared fiercely at Jiang Wang: "But fate is not fair to me, this world … is not fair!"
Jiang Wang could feel that Elder Cloud Traveler's inner palace was collapsing one by one, the Tongtian Palace was disappearing, and the Dao Energy in his body was gradually dissipating.
His aura completely disappeared, and he finally died.
Jiang Wang did not completely know what Elder Cloud Traveler had experienced in this life. The story was too long, and he would probably never hear it … but he would always remember the despair in Elder Cloud Traveler's eyes.
For some reason, he suddenly thought of something that Xiang Qian often said:
"No matter how hard you work, it will be meaningless."
And Zhao Rucheng. Every time Jiang Wang urged him to work hard, Elder Cloud Traveler would always say, "Because happy things are always related to 'waste.'"
Therefore, he wasted everything, talent, and money.
The reason why Jiang Wang had a good impression of Xiang Qian in the beginning was largely because he saw something similar in Xiang Qian and Zhao Rucheng.
Now, Xiang Qian began to work hard.
Would his efforts be of any use?
When he stood in front of his master's opponent in the future, would he be able to overcome the fear in his heart and defeat his nightmare?
Jiang Wang suddenly could not be so sure.
