Zhu Tian: Becoming a Sword Master from Martial Arts

Chapter 135: The Soul and Body are in Harmony with the Heaven and Earth, the Stubborn and Well-behaved Ying Huanhuan

"Buzz!"

In the air, the blooming green lotus was rotating leisurely, and streams of clear air were rippling in all directions. The spirit birds that were enough to make the strong men in the Four Elements Nirvana Realm tremble in fear were quietly wiped out by the clear air.

The holy, inviolable and noble green lotus made all the Taoist disciples involuntarily reveal amazement in their eyes.

"Wow!"

However, at this moment, a sound of a phoenix that seemed to penetrate the soul resounded throughout the square, waking everyone up and making them turn to look.

"Hoo! Hoo!"

The divine bird Phoenix, which was originally flying high in the sky, now stopped in the sky. Its pair of luxurious and sacred wings kept flapping, and the sound of wind could be heard.

It seemed that the countless spirit birds were blocked by the green lotus, which made the Phoenix, the King of Flying Feathers, furious. After the phoenix's cry, two balls of red flames rose from the Phoenix's originally empty eyes.

The moment the red flame appeared, the temperature between heaven and earth suddenly rose sharply.

"boom!"

A raging red flame gushed out from its eye sockets, and in a blink of an eye, it covered the entire body of the divine bird. Then, the spirit of the Sky Phoenix drew a red streak of light in the air and flew towards the holy green lotus that was independent of the world and could not be desecrated.

After the slender fiery red feathers passed through the air, there were also tiny drops of red sparks falling. The faces of some Dao Sect disciples who were contaminated by the feathers changed slightly, and they quickly circulated their energy to suppress the sparks, while quickly retreating to keep some distance.

"Om!!"

Perhaps sensing the enormous power of the Sky Phoenix Spirit, the blue lotus stopped rotating, and the bud that had already bloomed fully blossomed. Then, the outermost petals fell from the blue lotus and turned into several streams of light, shooting towards the Sky Phoenix Spirit.

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

Rays of green light flashed across the sky, but before they got close to the spirit of the Phoenix, red flames suddenly emerged, engulfed the petals, and finally disappeared.

"Wow!"

The scarlet divine bird Phoenix cried loudly, and then flew towards the green lotus. The green lotus was not to be outdone, and its pistil faced the divine bird and flew towards the Phoenix in a spin.

In the sky, under the nervous gazes of many Dao Sect disciples and several elite disciples of Taiqing Palace, two rainbow lights, one blue and one red, flew rapidly and finally collided with each other with a loud bang.

"boom!"

Blue and red energy ripples surged in all directions, but before they could completely dissipate, they were eliminated by an invisible force.

Ying Xuanzi raised his hand and pressed lightly, and an invisible space barrier enveloped the square, but his eyes were fixed on the scarlet phoenix bird in the sky and the pure and majestic green lotus that was out of this world.

The Palace Master of Taiqing Palace was also staring at the competition intently. She had not expected that Ying Huanhuan, who was not very famous in Dao Sect, had such talent and understanding. At the same realm, he could actually compete with Ling Qingzhu, who had mastered the Supreme Induction Technique.

“This Ling Qingzhu is truly terrifying. She is actually able to slightly suppress the Ice Master in the same realm. Tsk tsk, Lin Dong, you have to work hard!”

Looking at the Qinglian that seemed to be suppressing the divine bird Phoenix, Yan couldn't help but exclaimed that although he had placed Ling Qingzhu in third place before, it was because no one had better talent than Ling Qingzhu, not that she was only one step behind the Ice Lord.

But now it seems that the reason why she is ranked third is not because she is stronger than the others except those two, but because the only people who have better talents than her are the Sword Master and the Ice Lord.

"But I think Senior Sister Huanhuan should win."

After hearing Yan's words, Lin Dong frowned slightly and responded in his heart, while Yan asked in confusion.

"Why? Right now, the Ice Lord is at a disadvantage. Although she is the Ice Lord, she has not yet recovered. It is already amazing enough that she can reach such a level. After all, her opponent is the only one who has mastered the Supreme Induction Technique besides the Sword Saint!"

"I don't know, just intuition!"

Lin Dong's answer made Yan Gang want to laugh at him for daring to refute the spirit of the ancestral stone, but he heard a voice coming from the side.

"This round, Miss Huanhuan is going to win!"

Lin Xuan's answer made Lin Dong, Ying Xuanzi and others look at him. However, Lin Xuan had no intention of explaining. Instead, he stared at Ling Qingzhu, wanting to see how Ling Qingzhu would respond.

A hundred birds pay homage to the phoenix. From the moment Ying Huanhuan played the music, Lin Xuan knew that she had comprehended a hint of the true meaning of the phoenix's nirvana, reborn from the flames of desire. However, Lin Xuan could not see through Ling Qingzhu's application of the Supreme Induction Art. After all, the two people's understanding and application of the Supreme power were completely different.

"Buzz!"

Amidst the astonished eyes, the green lotus slowly turned, and streams of clear air continued to impact, actually washing away the phantom of the mythical bird, the Phoenix, becoming increasingly illusory.

Afterwards, in that clear air, the sacred and noble spirit of the Sky Phoenix suddenly collapsed and turned into scarlet spiritual energy.

"this!"

The power of the green lotus was beyond the expectations of countless Dao Sect disciples. They could not believe that the divine bird Phoenix, which was powerful enough to put tremendous pressure on a Six-Element Nirvana Realm powerhouse, was crushed by the green lotus that did not look strong.

But the next moment, everyone's eyes widened again. They saw that the red spiritual energy that was crushed by the green lotus did not dissipate, but entangled the green lotus. Then, all the red spiritual energy suddenly turned into red flames, burning the green lotus.

Ling Qingzhu's pupils shrank, and her clear eyes moved slightly to look at Ying Huanhuan opposite her. It was not known whether it was a telepathic connection, but at the same time Ling Qingzhu was looking at her, Ying Huanhuan was also looking at Ling Qingzhu.

Facing the gaze of her opponent, Ying Huanhuan couldn't help but reveal a hint of pride in her eyes, and when Ling Qingzhu saw this, a hint of pride also rose in her eyes. She, Ling Qingzhu, had never lost to anyone except that man!
The moment the two gazes met in the air, the intense hostility was so obvious that even the disciples of Dao Sect and Taiqing Palace outside the field could feel it.

Subconsciously, all the disciples' gazes shifted to the white-clothed, silver-haired figure sitting below the two masters.

Seeing the young man who remained calm despite the jealousy of the young palace master of the two super sects, Taiqing Palace and Dao Sect, and the beloved daughter of a head sect, fighting with each other, many people couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh inwardly, saying that the Sword Saint is worthy of being the Sword Saint, as he can remain calm in the face of two such outstanding daughters of destiny pursuing him.

However, at this moment, Lin Xuan focused everyone's attention on Ling Qingzhu. He had a hunch that Ling Qingzhu's use of the Supreme Power would definitely be beyond his expectations.

Under Lin Xuan's gaze, Ling Qingzhu snorted softly, raised her clear eyes, and looked at the 'Red Lotus' that had been completely covered by the red flames. Faintly, in the middle of the lotus pistil, there was a red divine bird figure that was slowly taking shape.

"Phoenix Nirvana?"

After whispering something, a trace of pure white light quietly surged in Ling Qingzhu's clear eyes. At the same time, the Taiqing Sword in her hand was slowly raised, and a special aura was released from Ling Qingzhu.

That momentum was not so strong as to be extremely oppressive, but under that momentum, the power surging between heaven and earth seemed to have a faint sense of submission.

Feeling the aura coming from Ling Qingzhu's body, Ying Xuanzi's face turned serious, and a hint of shock appeared in his eyes. Even the Palace Master of Taiqing Palace, who had practiced the Supreme Induction Technique, was also shocked by Ling Qingzhu's methods.

“Hiss!!!! I originally thought I had thought highly of her, but I didn’t expect that I actually underestimated her. She has actually begun to merge with the heaven and earth!”

Yan suddenly took a deep breath of cold air, and after a long while, he muttered to himself, which made Lin Dong feel confused.

"God merges heaven and earth? What does that mean?"

"Let me put it this way. I'm ranked second. The guy ranked first is called Embryo of the Planes. If you control Embryo of the Planes, you can control the entire Tianxuan Continent, just like the Sword Saint in the ancient space before. The reason why Embryo of the Planes is so powerful is that after controlling it, you can merge your body and soul with this world. I am the world, do you understand?"

After looking at Ling Qingzhu, Yan You couldn't help but look at Lin Xuan, with a bit of pity in his eyes, and shook his head and said.

"After Ling Qingzhu cultivated the Supreme Power, she embarked on the path of merging her spirit with the heaven and earth. If she could really do that, she could refine the Embryo of the Planes. And Sword Saint, this guy is even more evil. Before he cultivated the Supreme Power, he had already embarked on the path of merging his body with the heaven and earth. It's a pity that if the two of them were to combine, maybe they would be able to find the Embryo of the Planes!"

If Lin Xuan was listening to the conversation between Yan and Lin Dong at this moment, he would definitely give some approval, because he also felt that Ling Qingzhu's talent really exceeded his expectations and was a thousand times stronger than him.

Compared with Ling Qingzhu, Lin Xuan's use of the Supreme Power is much more powerful. When he was in the ancient space before, he let the power of heaven and earth be added to his body, and then used the Supreme Power to make it submit, forcibly controlling that huge force to exert enough strength.

To use it like Lin Xuan does, the body must be strong enough to contain the power of heaven and earth. However, Ling Qingzhu is completely the opposite. She feels as if the world is her own body, and she controls the power of heaven and earth with her own soul. Of course, this puts a lot of pressure on the soul.

The two are opposite paths, but ultimately they lead to the same destination.

Therefore, when Lin Xuan saw Ling Qingzhu's use of the Supreme Power, he was amazed and also quite touched. There seemed to be a special pure white energy gathering in his eyes.

"Wow!!"

At this moment, a clear phoenix cry sounded again from the pistil in the middle of the 'Red Lotus'. Then, the huge divine bird Phoenix flapped its wings and flew high again, with a stronger momentum than before. The lotus flower seemed to be drained of nutrients and quickly withered and died.

After the phoenix let out a loud cry, it flapped its scarlet wings and attacked Ling Qingzhu with even more powerful fire power.

The fierce gust of wind blew up the long belt around the waist of the woman in plain skirt. The next moment, Ling Qingzhu raised her delicate head, and her beautiful eyes looked directly into the pair of phoenix eyes with flaming flames. She tapped her toes lightly, and her whole body turned into a ray of clear light, rushing straight towards the spirit of the Phoenix.

There was not an overly terrifying aura on the long sword, but as Ling Qingzhu approached, a huge pressure fell directly on the Spirit of the Heavenly Phoenix. Then, the Spirit of the Heavenly Phoenix let out a wail, as if it was afraid.

The girl sitting cross-legged in front of the scarlet guqin looked at the Heavenly Phoenix Spirit, which seemed to be a little afraid. A hint of stubbornness flashed in her beautiful and smart eyes. She clenched her silver teeth, and then her ten fingers kept plucking the strings.

The melodious sound of the piano echoed above the square, and the crimson sound waves gradually gathered above the square to form a huge ancient tree that was flashing with crimson light.

"The phoenix rests on the phoenix tree, and the clouds fill the sky!"

Ying Huanhuan plucked the strings of the zither quickly with both hands. There were already traces of blood on her originally delicate fingers, and there was a hint of icy blue in her eyes.

As the crimson phoenix tree grew, the frightened spirit of the Sky Phoenix fell directly on the phoenix tree. The crimson light on its body became brighter and turned into a red cloud, sweeping towards the clear light that followed.

In the crimson glow, Ling Qingzhu's pair of clear eyes were staring straight at Ying Huanhuan. Her pupils shrank slightly. This time, she felt it more clearly that Ying Huanhuan's aura was a little different.

At that moment, Ling Qingzhu, who had already exerted all her strength, gritted her teeth again, and waves of invisible power of heaven and earth pressed towards the rosy barrier in front of her, causing the rosy barrier supported by the spirit of the Heavenly Phoenix to slowly shrink again, making Ying Huanhuan even more anxious.

If they were at different realms, although Ying Huanhuan would be unwilling to lose to Ling Qingzhu, the anger would not be so strong. After all, she had been practicing for a shorter time.

But now they are at the same realm. She, Ying Huanhuan, can lose to anyone except the disciples of Yuanmen, but she must not lose to the woman in front of her!
Ying Huanhuan, who kept playing with both hands, only felt that there was a force in her body that was constantly surging, making her...

A pair of dark eyes suddenly appeared in front of Ying Huanhuan, and then Ying Huanhuan felt a big hand pressing on the strings of the Tianhuang Harp.

Looking at the expressionless face in front of her, Ying Huanhuan didn't know why. The unwillingness to admit defeat that she had just had disappeared in an instant. She became much more obedient. At the same time, the huge force was gradually suppressed.
