PS: Over.
Chu Li swung his blade again.
Fang Qingyang disappeared in a flash and the flying blade pierced through the air.
Before he disappeared, he shot a blade at Chu Li.
Chu Li also disappeared in a flash and the Light Blade missed.
The Heavenly Demonic Orb fell to his precordium and endless energy surged around him. The wound quickly stopped bleeding and gradually closed up. The Heavenly Demonic Body was so strong that this small injury was not worth mentioning.
The Life and Death Scripture channeled extremely pure spiritual energy from Heaven and Earth. More than half of it was channeled into the Cloud Slashing Power while the other half entered the wound to speed up the healing.
Fang Qingyang felt that the Light Blade and his flying blade were evenly matched. It was slightly faster but was offset by his fearlessness. If this went on, Chu Li would be injured and he would not be able to hold on.
Chu Li had a strong physique.
The last time he was hit by the blade, he did not die. After that, he suffered another blade and a few Divine Light Fists. If it were anyone else, they would have died a few times.
However, Chu Li was full of vigor in just seven days. He was obviously gifted and Fang Qingyang could not compete with him in this.
His biggest advantage was his cultivation level. The inner energy of the Divine Light Scripture was profound and superior to Chu Li.
Therefore, he used a Divine Light Fist with all his might. It was enough to kill a Grandmaster. He had to get rid of Chu Li as soon as possible.
Chu Li used his Cloud Slashing Palm.
After a muffled "bang", their fists and palms collided.
Then, as if their fists and palms were glued together, they began to compete with their inner energy.
Fang Qingyang's fist force from the Divine Light Fist rushed into Chu Li's palm.
The Heavenly Demonic Orb had fallen to his precordium and could not devour this fist force. Chu Li could only use the inner energy of the Cloud Slashing Power to wrap around it and devour it.
In a short while, the fist force of the Divine Light Fist was devoured and turned into extremely pure Cloud Slashing Power inner energy.
Their inner energy clashed with each other, like two groups of soldiers charging at each other.
Chu Li's Cloud Slashing Power inner energy was slightly less pure than Fang Qingyang's. Moreover, Fang Qingyang's inner energy was so powerful that Chu Li was forced to retreat. The inner energy clashed from his palm to his wrist, then to his arm and shoulder.
When their inner energy clashed on their shoulders, Chu Li regained some of his disadvantage.
His Dantian and meridians were not as wide as Fang Qingyang's, but the Divine Light Body was unique in that his meridians were extremely wide, as though his entire body was made up of meridians. His inner energy was as vast as the ocean, and his meridians did not pose any obstruction.
Chu Li's meridians were wide enough, but they paled in comparison to the Divine Light Body. Fortunately, he had an endless supply of spiritual energy.
Chu Li's meridians were sturdy, but they were narrower than the Divine Light Body. It was like two groups of soldiers crossing swords in a narrow valley.
Fang Qingyang's soldiers were elite and their formation was solid, but the valley was narrow, so they were unable to unleash their full advantage.
Chu Li's soldiers were not elite enough, but they were able to exhaust them endlessly. When one wave died, another wave would rush up, and they would fight to the death without retreating. They were purely relying on their numbers to stop Fang Qingyang's soldiers from advancing.
Fang Qingyang stared at him with a sneer at the corner of his lips. He activated his inner energy endlessly and pressed forward. He did not believe that Chu Li would be able to hold on for too long.
Chu Li gradually could not hold on anymore. Even though his inner energy was boundless, it could not compare to the purity of Fang Qingyang's. He slowly retreated, from his shoulder to his precordium.
Chu Li gritted his teeth and abruptly withdrew his Heavenly Demonic Body. The Heavenly Demonic Orb instantly appeared in his precordium.
The next moment, it appeared in front of the Great Light Scripture's inner energy that was surging toward him and swallowed it. The immense pressure was suddenly lifted, and the Cloud Slashing Power's inner energy was once again pushed into his palm.
Then, the Heavenly Demonic Orb appeared on his wrist and continuously absorbed the Great Light Scripture's inner energy.
Fang Qingyang felt that Chu Li's body was like a bottomless pit. The inner energy that was pouring into him was like a clay ox entering the sea. This aroused his arrogance and stubbornness. He wanted to see if he could burst!
Chu Li ignored Fang Qingyang's inner energy and only activated the Cloud Slashing Power's inner energy to make it purer and purer. He also diverted his attention to channel spiritual energy to nourish his wounds.
One cycle after another, the Cloud Slashing Power continued to purify that inner energy, preventing the Heavenly Demonic Orb from devouring it. It only circulated in his body one cycle after another, purifying it over and over again.
In the end, this inner energy turned into a thin thread that floated in his meridians like hair.
However, his meridians were aching faintly. This thin thread was like lightning, and wherever it swam, his meridians felt as if they were being burned.
As time passed, the bright moon slowly moved in the night sky.
Two hours later, both Chu Li and Fang Qingyang were brimming with energy and were not tired at all.
Four hours later, both of them were still brimming with energy.
Six hours later, the sky was bright, but the two of them were still in tiredness, their eyes shining brightly.
Leng Qiu and Leng Qing pushed open the door and entered the courtyard. When they saw the two of them standing motionless with their fists and palms pressed against each other, they immediately stopped and looked at Fang Qingyang cautiously.
Chu Li gave them a look. "Come in, this is the Holy Church of Light's Priest Fang Qingyang. You two practice your swordsmanship."
"The Holy Church of Light?" The two women's expressions changed slightly.
Chu Li said, "Fang Qingyang, you can't do it anymore. You can't beat me!"
Fang Qingyang frowned. "Not necessarily!"
"It's wishful thinking to exhaust my inner energy!" Chu Li said. "My greatest strength is the depth of my inner energy."
"Same!" Fang Qingyang said calmly. "Chu Li, it's such a pity. You're so talented, but you're going to die by my fist!"
Chu Li scoffed. "I'd like to see who dies by whose hand!"
He pointed his right index finger at Fang Qingyang and performed the Spear Finger Strike.
Wherever his inner energy passed through, the meridians in his entire arm were injured. This purest inner energy turned into a finger force and shot towards Fang Qingyang.
Fang Qingyang countered with a punch.
"Bang!" With a muffled sound, both of them took a step back.
Fang Qingyang's expression changed slightly as he felt a bolt of lightning shooting into his fist and into his precordium. His heavy inner energy could not stop him as it crumbled bit by bit and kept closing in on his precordium.
He frowned and scoffed. "What martial art is this?"
"Soul Devouring Finger!" Chu Li said calmly. "It's a martial art that I created myself. What do you think?"
A flash of a sword suddenly rose from his waist. The flash of the sword condensed into a cold star and pierced towards Fang Qingyang's throat.
Fang Qingyang flicked his finger.
"Ding …" The long sword was deflected. Fang Qingyang turned into a flash of light and left. A shout came from afar. "I'll be back!"
Chu Li let out a long sigh of relief and immediately turned to enter the house.
— —
He sat cross-legged on the bed and channeled to heal his injuries.
His meridians quickly recovered under the nourishment of the spiritual energy from Heaven and Earth. After two hours, he was completely healed and the wound on his chest had also healed. Although it was not fully recovered, it did not hinder his movements.
He opened his eyes and looked exhausted.
This fight could be said to be physically and mentally exhausting. He had used his brain and inner energy to their limits and had fully utilized his advantages. If he had made a mistake in his calculations, he would have ended up running for his life again.
He had first used Imminent Skyline and the Eternity Blade to force Fang Qingyang to compete with his inner energy. If Fang Qingyang had not underestimated his opponent, he would not have competed with his inner energy.
The Heavenly Demonic Orb transformed from the Heavenly Demonic Power had offset his disadvantage. In addition to that finger force that hurt both others and himself, Fang Qingyang had finally been scared off. He might not be so lucky next time!
He still had to cultivate diligently and not rely on his intelligence to win by trickery.
A smile suddenly appeared on his face. The Heavenly Demonic Orb had devoured a lot of inner energy, more than what he had cultivated diligently for a month.
In the small courtyard, Leng Qiu and Leng Qing were resting by the stone table, wiping the sweat off their foreheads. When they saw him come out, the two women smiled and said, "Head Chief, did you defeat that fellow, the Priest of the Holy Church of Light?"
Chu Li nodded. "I was lucky enough to retreat once, but it might not happen again. You two shouldn't have come."
Fang Qingyang was still a character and would not stoop to hurting two weak women like them. Otherwise, the two of them would be taking the Spirit Blessing Pill right now.
Leng Qing said, "I heard that there was no movement here, so I thought it was over."
Chu Li sighed. "Don't come here for a few days, I'm afraid he'll come again!"
That Spear Finger Strike could not really hurt Fang Qingyang. He would definitely be dissatisfied and come again.
Through just two battles, he could tell that Fang Qingyang's character was somewhat like what the future generations would call a perfectionist and a paranoid person.
Once you start doing something, you must finish it, and it must be done perfectly.
Since he wanted to kill him, he would definitely do so and would not give up halfway.
