Chapter 259 Shock
Zhou Qingyi swept away all the fire crows with a plasma beam, splitting Shao Mingxi in two along with it.

He then stopped what he was doing and waited for Shao Mingxi to recover.

The people in the distant Cloud Mist Valley were both shocked and saddened by what they saw.

Zhou Qing's actions clearly show that he doesn't take the sect leader seriously at all, so he lets the sect leader recover because he is confident that he can suppress the sect leader again at any time.

Only in this way can one truly say that they have completely subdued Cloud Mist Valley, leaving Cloud Mist Valley no chance to defend itself.

Shao Mingxi's two severed body parts were restored, but his Heavenly Fire True Body dimmed a bit more, making it almost impossible for him to maintain it.

However, Shao Mingxi didn't care. He was recalling the feeling of being hit just now, the terrifying high temperature that he was intoxicated by.

This is the awe that fire-attribute cultivators feel towards temperatures that are beyond their imagination.

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a flame rushing towards Zhou Qing from behind, and was immediately startled.

He knew that this was Mu Zhenren launching a sneak attack.

Without time to think, he immediately intercepted Mu Zhenren.

The two celestial fire bodies collided and then fell from the sky, carving a deep ravine into the mountain below.

Zhou Qing had already noticed Mu Zhenren's sneak attack. In fact, under his all-encompassing surveillance, all spiritual pressure within a ten-mile radius had nowhere to hide.

He discovered Mu Zhenren while he was still in hiding.

Just as he was about to punish him, Shao Mingxi unexpectedly knocked Mu Zhenren away first, which caught Zhou Qing off guard.

Not only was Zhou Qing caught off guard, but Master Mu also didn't react in time.

Didn't we agree to attack Zhou Qing from both sides? Why did Senior Brother Headmaster suddenly go back on his word?

"Master, what's going on?"

Mu Zhen said.

Shao Mingxi said, "We admit defeat. Zhou Qing possesses the supreme lineage of our fire cultivators. How can we possibly kill him?"

what?
Master Mu was stunned.

The two dispelled their Heavenly Fire True Forms and rose into the air again, bowing to Zhou Qing and saying, "Brother Zhou, we admit defeat."

"We cordially invite you, fellow Daoist, to visit Cloud Mist Valley. We will do our best to entertain you."

Zhou Qing didn't mention the earlier sneak attack by Master Mu, and without any suspicion, followed Shao Mingxi and the other person flying towards Cloud Mist Valley.

This composed and dignified demeanor impressed Shao Mingxi even more, who said, "From Brother Zhou, I have truly seen the true demeanor of someone who aspires to reach the peak of the Immortal Path. Our defeat was not unjust."

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Master Shao, you flatter me."

"We cultivators can only improve by sparring with each other. In sparring, there will inevitably be winners and losers. The winners should not be complacent, and the losers should not feel ashamed. Both sides should aim to learn from each other's strengths and make up for their weaknesses, so that we can all walk the path together."

"But once sectarianism takes hold, everyone considers their own interests, and they can only win and cannot afford to lose. This limits their own capacity, which is a pity."

"I am very pleased that Master Shao can understand this point."

Shao Mingxi, Mu Zhenren, and Zhou Qing rushed to join the onlookers.

Everyone was astonished to see the two sides suddenly reconcile.

Shao Mingxi said, "Brother Zhou's abilities are far beyond my reach, there's no reason to deny that."

"Everyone, let's go back now and prepare a banquet to entertain Brother Zhou." Zhou Qing knew that he had something to ask, so he did not refuse and followed Shao Mingxi and the others back to Cloud Mist Valley.

Cloud Valley is a narrow valley between two mountains, shrouded in mist, to the point that it is almost impossible to recognize each other from the opposite side. However, this did not affect Zhou Qing.

He is now accustomed to observing the environment using the Heavenly Net, which allows him to get closer to the essence of heaven and earth, that is, the state of spiritual energy within their bodies, than his eyesight.

The cultivators of Cloud Mist Valley were naturally very surprised to see Zhou Qing reconcile with them.

But since this was the sect elders' decision, they naturally had nothing to say.

Once their hostility towards Zhou Qing was dispelled, they began to view him without prejudice, and only then did they realize what an astonishing existence they were facing.

A young disciple of the Qingyun Sect, who was originally on the same level as them, now roams tens of thousands of miles, forcing the sect leader of a Golden Core sect to bow down and admit defeat.

If such a disciple were not a disciple of the Qingyun Sect, but their senior brother, they could not even imagine how much the disciples in the sect would admire him.

Even though Zhou Qing wasn't from Cloud Mist Valley, once their hostility dissipated and they reflected on his deeds, they couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for him.

The happiest people in this situation were naturally Xiao Xiao and Lin Li.

They no longer have to be caught between their sect and their friends.

Cloud Mist Valley lavishly entertained Zhou Qing for three days. Seeing that the time was right, Zhou Qing said, "Master Shao has been so hospitable. I wonder how I can repay you?"

Upon hearing this, Shao Mingxi, Master Mu, and the elders of Yunwu Valley all fell silent.

Shao Mingxi said, "To be honest, Brother Zhou, our Cloud Mist Valley is famous for its fire-based cultivation techniques. The Heavenly Fire True Body is the top-level method for fire-based cultivation in the Western Continent. However, it was not until I met Brother Zhou that I witnessed the true essence of the fire-based cultivation path."

"If Brother Zhou would be so kind as to offer some guidance, my Cloud Mist Valley would be eternally grateful."

Zhou Qing thought to himself, "This Master Shao is quite knowledgeable."

His plasma beam uses a magnetic field to confine the plasma and continuously increase its pressure and temperature.

If his magnetic field strength were not currently insufficient, he could completely create nuclear fusion by hand using the same principle; this is the essential reaction of a star.

It's not bad that Shao Mingxi could see the potential for fire element cultivation in this.

He just doubted whether the other party could really learn anything from it.

Zhou Qing said, "My methods are all original and difficult for others to imitate. However, I can show you a few. If you can learn anything from them, that is your good fortune."

Shao Mingxi said with delight, "That's good, thank you for your help, Brother Zhou."

Zhou Qing then arrived at the Transmission of Skills Square in Cloud Mist Valley.

He enters a state of rejuvenation, using magnetic fields to tear the air apart to create plasma, and then using magnetic fields to confine and pressurize it.

Before long, a dazzling sun rose in his hand, its bright light piercing through the mist of Cloud Valley. He was like a god descending to earth holding a sacred object.

The plasma he created during his rebirth could reach temperatures of tens of thousands of degrees, exceeding the temperature of any natural flame. Even fire-based spells at the Golden Core level rarely broke through ten thousand degrees.

Shao Mingxi and the others stared in awe at the bright plasma, their hearts filled with shock.

After a while, Zhou Qing used a magnetic field to guide the plasma into the sky, like a sharp sword piercing the sky, and then suddenly slashed down, carving a path through the thick fog of Cloud Mist Valley.

Zhou Qing said, "Thank you all for your hospitality these past few days. I have important matters to attend to and cannot stay any longer. I will take my leave now."
