Chapter 929

Fang Bai stood in the open space in front of the building and looked around proudly. "Who else would like to teach me a lesson?"

Just as some of the legendary figures upstairs were about to teach Fang Bai a lesson and improve their own reputation, they suddenly saw a green figure rush out of the crowd and climb up the stairs. He cupped his hands in obeisance and said,

"I'm Qi Zhengyan of the Huanhua Swords Sect. Please give me some pointers, Brother Fang."

A disciple of the Huanhua Swords Sect? Why wasn't he famous? The legendary figures downstairs were stunned. They had heard of the outstanding disciples of the Huanhua Swords Sect, even if they were not on the Ranking List of Young Masters. It was the first time they had heard of the name Qi Zhengyan.

The onlookers were whispering to each other about who this Qi Zhengyan was. The Huanhua Swords Sect was famous, but it was unlikely that an unknown disciple could challenge an expert on the Ranking List of Young Masters.

At this time, a clear voice rose from the crowd and drowned out the noise. "The Huanhua Swords Sect is a big sect in the world with many hidden talents. Not everyone knows the outstanding disciples of the sect. Since he dares to challenge them, I'm afraid he really has some strength. The picturesque beauty of the Sword of Bright Moon with Tide and the poetic beauty of the Sword of Afterglow and Autumn Water are really exciting!"

Everyone looked over and saw a young man in black robes standing in the crowd. His appearance was outstanding, his speech was appropriate, and his voice was loud and clear.

"Brother, have you seen the Sword of Bright Moon with Tide and the Sword of Afterglow and Autumn Water?" Someone next to Mengqi immediately asked.

Mengqi pretended to be polite. "Of course, I've just come from Ying City. Master Lotus is really a romantic swordsman!"

"I see!" Hearing the name of Master Lotus, the onlookers were full of anticipation. Even if they could not see Master Lotus in person, they still wanted to see the sword art of the Huanhua Swords Sect with a long name!

Hearing the discussion below, Fang Bai, who was originally impatient to fight with a nobody, smiled. "I've been longing for your sword art for a long time. How can I miss the chance to see it?"

Master Lotus enjoyed drinking in River East, so many people wanted to challenge him. Fang Bai was one of them. However, he knew that he was still young and had just formed his Inner World. He had defeated a famous Nine Acupores master by mastering an Exterior-level claw art and barely made it into the Ranking List of Young Masters. There was a fundamental gap between him and Master Lotus, who was said to have reached the realm of Oneness of Heaven and Men and had many Exterior-level unique skills. Therefore, it was better to wait until he opened Nine Acupores to challenge. Otherwise, he would only humiliate himself.

Since that was the case, he should learn more about the swordsmanship of the Huanhua Swords Sect.

If that wasn't the case, Fang Bai would've died of exhaustion if he had to accept every challenge from anyone.

Fang Bai's first impression of Qi Zhengyan was that he was tall and straight in a green robe. His looks were not outstanding, but at least he was not ugly. However, his face was expressionless, like a dead man. He did not have the demeanor of a master.

Qi Zhengyan did not say anything else. He cupped his hands and bowed again. His right hand reached for the hilt of his sword. His movements were elegant as if he was waving a brush and splashing ink. It was quite like the spirit of the Huanhua Swords Sect.

Fang Bai's eyes lit up. Dismissing the contempt in his heart, he circulated his genuine Qi and used all his strength, waiting for his opponent to strike.

"Good!" Someone shouted from below. Meng Qi happened to be shouting everywhere.

"Good? What's so good about it? "Someone beside Mengqi asked in confusion.

At this moment, Qi Zhengyan unsheathed his long sword. The dragon pattern on it was faintly discernible. The legendary figures downstairs stopped looking down on him.

Meng Qi smacked his lips. "Just now, when Qi Zhengyan grabbed the hilt of his sword, there were four hidden changes. Each change hid a different way of drawing the sword. If Fang Bai attacked him when he drew the sword, he would have been able to react in time. What's more admirable is that the changes of his moves were hidden deep within his body. His movements were free and unrestrained. He has already acquired the essence of the Huanhua Swords Sect."

"He's really outstanding!" The onlookers did not have this kind of insight. After hearing Mengqi's description, they suddenly understood and cheered.

The legendary figures downstairs had different expressions on their faces. Some were twitching, some were trying to hold back their laughter, and some were disdainful. Qi Zhengyan's drawing of the sword was not bad, but it was not as outstanding as described. "What's his background?" "He has some insight, but his knowledge is too shallow!"

"It's a good sword. The power of the dragon is intimidating. It's at least an Upper Grade Refined Weapon!" Mengqi did not care about their opinions at all. He explained from different angles, which surprised the onlookers.

Fang Bai's left foot was in front, and his right foot was behind. His body was slightly bent, and his hands were like claws, one above and the other below. He was like a real dragon that was ready to strike. His momentum was restrained and hidden in the depths of the Nine Abysses.

"Fang Bai really lives up to his reputation. Just the way he starts his attack already has the charm of a real dragon. His momentum is hidden, but once he attacks, it will be as powerful as a thunderbolt." Meng Qi was well-versed in describing his opponent. Only by defeating him would he be of greater value.

However, he did not do anything despicable. He could see Fang Bai's genuine Qi flow clearly in his mind reflection. He knew all of Fang Bai's changes and moves. If he forced himself to say it, Fang Bai would have to change his moves. In that case, Qi Zhengyan would have an unfair advantage.

However, he did not do anything despicable. He could see Fang Bai's genuine Qi flow clearly in his mind reflection. He knew all of Fang Bai's changes and moves. If he forced himself to say it, Fang Bai would have no choice but to change his moves. In that case, Qi Zhengyan would have an unfair advantage.

Hearing Mengqi's words, Fang Bai snickered. He knew what was going on, but he did not know why …

As the challenger, Qi Zhengyan made the first move. He performed the Sword Style of Afterglow and Autumn Water, which looked like a lonely and desolate duck flying across.

Fang Bai's right hand clawed at Fang Bai. His fingertips emitted a strong gust of wind. He was not afraid of the sharp weapon. He dragged his left claw back and waited for his right hand to pull out the long sword.

When it came to the actual fight, Mengqi could not explain each move because of the speed at which they moved, so he stopped for the time being.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The sword and the claw collided. Qi Zhengyan used all his swordsmanship, but he did not use the sharpness of his Precious Weapon. He fought with Fang Bai.

Mengqi took a deep breath. "Although Qi Zhengyan of the Huanhua Swords Sect is good at swordsmanship, he is still not as good as Fang Bai, the Cloud-scraping Dragon. He is already at a disadvantage. If there are no other changes, he will be in danger!"

The onlookers could see that Qi Zhengyan was in a passive position. However, after listening to Mengqi's explanation, they realized that he was in danger and was about to lose.

The legendary figures downstairs turned a deaf ear to Meng Qi's shallow judgment. Who could not see that?

Fang Bai was excited. He closed his fingers and made a dragon's mouth. He touched the Dragon Stripe Golden Sword and pushed it away. Then, he stretched out his left claw and grabbed at Qi Zhengyan's chest.

"He lost …" The legendary figures downstairs all had the same thought.

Just then, Qi Zhengyan's body emitted rays of light. They were as red as fire and looked like dancing lotuses. They immediately pushed Fang Bai's left claw away.

"What's this?" Meng Qi's face was full of 'shock'.

"What?" The legendary figures and the onlookers had the same expression as him, but one of them was fake while the other was real.

Fang Bai was shocked, but he was an experienced fighter, so he did not panic. He took a step and went to Qi Zhengyan's side.

Qi Zhengyan was surrounded by rays of light. He looked like a god or an immortal. His long sword was covered with a layer of ice crystals, and the cold air was overflowing. When he swung his sword, snowflakes fell.

The sword light was crystal clear. It broke through the void and shot out, forming a frozen fog around it.

The scene was magnificent, almost like a legend.

The Exterior? Half-step Exterior Scenery? Fang Bai was stunned at first, but then he realized that the power was not right. He summoned his courage and grabbed the sword light with his right thumb.

The crystal sword light was broken. Fang Bai's right hand was covered with a layer of white frost. The coldness seeped into his body and made him shiver.

Genuine Qi ran and the frozen feeling disappeared immediately.

The legendary figures and onlookers were dumbfounded. How could Meng Qi surpass the enlightenment level?

At this time, Mengqi was "shocked" and said hurriedly, "The power seems to be only at the enlightenment level. Qi Zhengyan doesn't show any signs of the interaction between the inner and outer worlds. It must be a special skill!"

"The Huanhua Swords Sect doesn't have such a Divine Skill. Could it be that Qi Zhengyan found it during his travels?"

"In the ancient and medieval times, there were only a few skills that could activate the power of heaven and earth in the enlightenment period. Maybe this is one of them!"

Hearing his "shocked" voice, the legendary figures downstairs suddenly understood. "So that's how it is. This guy is really knowledgeable!

But why haven't we heard of such a Divine Skill? "

"Is there really such a skill?" The onlookers were shocked and excited. They didn't know that there was such a skill in the world. Enlightening the Apertures could activate the outer world!

Mengqi said firmly, "Of course there is. Isn't the Noble Spirit of the Wang family from Zhou County? Cultivating the Noble Spirit in one's chest, one can activate the Noble Spirit of heaven and earth when enlightening the Apertures and use it to strengthen oneself. It's wonderful! "

The reason why he wanted to "explain" was not only for fun, but also to take this opportunity to prove that Qi Zhengyan's "Book of the Chaos" was not so mysterious. The Wang family from Zhou County had a similar skill in the ancient times, but it was relatively rare. At most, it could be regarded as an outstanding adventure.

In short, he couldn't let them speculate casually. If Senior Brother Qi was suspected, the rumors would turn out to be true!

In this way, once the news spread, the possibility of Qi Zhengyan being suspected would be greatly reduced, and the "Book of the Chaos" would also be clear.

Hearing "Noble Spirit", the legendary figures upstairs all heaved a sigh of relief. They had actually forgotten about this skill. However, it was really enviable that Qi Zhengyan had such a Divine Skill. If he was not a disciple of Huanhua Swords Sect, many people present would secretly covet it. Now they could only sigh that Huanhua Swords Sect had obtained another Divine Skill.

As for Qi Zhengyan himself, he didn't plan to return to his sect for the time being. He would wait until he reached the Exterior level. At that time, he would have some right to speak and could use the excuse that he had to learn through crystals to practice and not hand over the "Book of the Chaos" in exchange for other things. If he wanted the crystals, he would have to find them again or condense them after he passed away.

Between shock and explanation, Fang Bai was already in danger. His Icesnow Genuine Qi turned into flowing light and flew with his sword art. The long-range suppression made it impossible for him to get close to Qi Zhengyan.

After blocking seven or eight attacks, Fang Bai's lips turned blue. The coldness was obviously hard to get rid of, and his movements were a little slow. Under the "Book of the Chaos", he had no strength to fight back.

"I can't let this continue." Fang Bai ran his genuine Qi with exquisite steps. He seemed to be moving away, but in fact, he bypassed the crystal flowing light and pounced on Qi Zhengyan.

He raised his right hand and clenched it into a fist. Then he opened his five fingers. His little finger moved nimbly, his ring finger simple and crude, his middle finger vigorous, his index finger unpredictable, and his thumb firm and fierce. Each of them was like five real dragons attacking at the same time. Before he even made a move, he already felt as if he had pinched Qi Zhengyan's vital acupoints.

The strong wind was like a sharp sword, and the majestic power of the dragon came out.

This was his unique skill of the Exterior, "Five Dragons Stretching Claws"!

Facing the power of the dragon, Qi Zhengyan didn't move at all. He bent his long sword, and the surrounding coldness suddenly deepened. A layer of ice appeared around Fang Bai, and the ground suddenly became slippery.

He used the Icesnow Genuine Qi to launch the "Thousand-mile Ice".

"Crack!" The five dragons broke the ice, and Fang Bai's blood vessels stiffened. His movements slowed again, and he was at the end of his rope. Qi Zhengyan took advantage of the situation and forced him to surrender!

"Qi Zhengyan also has an Exterior-level killer move!" Mengqi said with a "shocked" expression. "The disciples of Huanhua Swords Sect are really extraordinary!"

The legendary figures below all sighed with emotion. The disciples of the big sects were indeed the disciples of the big sects. Even adventures favored them …

The onlookers were talking about it. They didn't expect to see another young talent on the Ranking List of Young Masters today.

Fang Bai smiled bitterly. "Brother Qi, I don't want to fight with you anymore. Your skill is too much of a bully."

Qi Zhengyan forced a smile and chatted with Fang Bai for a while. Then, he used the excuse of going to see Doctor Zhong to refuse the invitations of the legendary figures.

The legendary figures couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths when they saw the man in black and Qi Zhengyan leave with him. One word popped into their minds: Shameless!

"Not bad. With the strength you've shown, you're at least in the top 35 of the Ranking List of Young Masters." Mengqi said excitedly. "Senior Brother Qi, what nickname do you want?"

Now that the secret report was in his hands, whatever nickname he wanted, he just had to say it!

"Why didn't I have such a good thing in the past?"

Qi Zhengyan was silent for a while before he said, "Junior Brother Meng, it's better if you don't praise me when I fight in the future."

"Ah, why?" Mengqi was a little surprised.

Qi Zhengyan exhaled. "Your performance was too exaggerated. You praised me too much, and you're an acquaintance. When I heard it, I felt ashamed and my state of mind became unstable …"

"Alas, I still can't compare to Brother Wang Zai …" Mengqi reflected.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the Zhong family's ancestral home and handed over their visiting cards.

"Please go back. My master has been in a bad mood recently." The gatekeeper didn't report and directly refused.
