From martial arts sects to immortality sects

Chapter 84 Martial God Pill

"What's the point of going back? To help those people oppress the people?"

Li Yang stared at the two people on the martial arts stage and said expressionlessly.

During his time at Qingxiao Sect, his martial arts skills improved significantly. He also frequently went to the martial arts arena to spar with others. Many disciples knew him, and he was considered a familiar face on the martial arts arena.

Zhao Linglong said helplessly, "Things aren't as bad as you think. And if the dynasty is in bad shape, you should try harder to change it instead of giving up on yourself here."

“How do you know I’m giving up on myself?” Li Yang retorted.

Zhao Linglong didn't know how to respond, because Li Yang was indeed engrossed in practicing martial arts.

But what's the use of just practicing martial arts?
Li Yang's background destined him to be someone who would not wander the martial world; his future lay on the battlefield and in the imperial court.

"Senior Brother Xue, please enlighten me!"

Ji Ya looked at Xue Jin, clasped his hands in greeting, and said that he was plain-looking and not very tall. He spoke in a somewhat timid manner, but he had a ruthless streak in his bones, which would be revealed in battle.

Xue Jin raised his sword in salute, then launched the first attack.

Ji Ya first unleashed the Nine Heavens Divine Palm with both palms, unleashing a surge of primordial energy that swept across the entire martial arts arena, forcing Xue Jin to raise his sword to defend.

"Such a starting stance again, with such powerful internal energy, he can really do whatever he wants!"

A disciple in the audience remarked that Ji Ya always started like this.

His Nine Heavens Divine Palm wasn't as exquisite as Yang Jueding's or Wu Man'er's, but it couldn't withstand his boundless energy. With a casual strike, no one could dodge it and had to take it head-on.

Next, Ji Ya was about to unleash his second attack.

Ji Ya changed hand gestures and chanted incantations rapidly. His vital energy overflowed from his body and quickly condensed into a silver-blue tiger, which was ten feet tall at the shoulder and extremely majestic.

Mountain King's Divine Incantation!

This incantation has become Ji Ya's signature move. As soon as the Mountain Lord's Divine Incantation is unleashed, he pounces on Xue Jin.

This wasn't the first time Zhao Linglong had seen the Mountain Lord's Divine Curse, yet she still couldn't understand whether it was truly a martial art.
This mountain god is extremely agile and has sharp claws and teeth; even being hit by it can easily cause serious injury.

Ji Ya has won ten battles in a row thanks to this move.

Of course, Zhao Linglong felt that the Mountain Lord's Spell still had flaws.

Xue Jin quickly dodged the mountain lord's attacks. He seized an opportunity and suddenly threw his sword. The long sword swept past the mountain lord and struck Ji Ya.

Almost simultaneously, Xue Jin used a mysterious footwork technique, his figure swayed, and he appeared behind the sword hilt. The sword energy on the longsword carried him toward Ji Ya.

Ji Ya's expression changed slightly, and he once again used the Nine Heavens Divine Palm. When Xue Jin's sword was less than half a zhang away from Ji Ya, he was sent flying.

After landing, Xue Jin dodged the mountain lord, swung his sword again, and continued to attack Ji Ya.

His footwork and moves became increasingly faster.

Ji Ya's weakness became apparent: although he possessed abundant vital energy, his reaction speed and reaction time were far inferior to Xue Jin's.

After five consecutive attacks, Xue Jin's sword finally pressed against Ji Ya's throat, causing him to freeze in place.

"Junior brother, you flatter me!"

Xue Jin said coldly, "From beginning to end, Shan Jun has never touched him."

Ji Ya let out a sigh and said helplessly, "Senior Brother is still more powerful."

Xue Jin smiled, but his heart was not so calm.

He had already given it his all. His speed was only possible because of the boost from his vital energy. If he did it a few more times, he wouldn't be able to execute such a sword step anymore.

He only won in the present, but lost in terms of natural talent.

Ji Ya's talent truly impressed him.

The disciples below cheered, both Xue Jin and Ji Ya had demonstrated their strength, which was admirable.

Xue Jin stepped down from the stage, preparing to go up the mountain to cultivate and recover his vitality.

He hadn't gone far when a middle-aged man in a green robe approached him and said with a smile, "Young Master Xue, my name is Zhu Li, and I come from the Zhu family of Jie County, Dongling Prefecture. May I have a word with you in private?"

"No time."

Xue Jin didn't even glance at him, and simply shook him off and left.

Zhu Li stopped and stared at his retreating figure, cursing him inwardly for his arrogance.

He turned and walked back to the martial arts arena to continue selecting outstanding Qingxiao Sect disciples. His family had given him a strict order: he must win over a Qingxiao Sect genius and help the Zhu family enter the Qingxiao Sect.

Qingxiao Sect is now the number one sect in Guzhou, producing many geniuses, and its future is limitless. In addition, there are rumors that Qingxiao Sect possesses the legendary martial arts skills, which makes even more people want to join.

If forcibly taking it doesn't work, then we have to think of other methods.

After watching several matches from the audience, Li Yang couldn't resist going up on stage as well.

The disciples of Qingxiao Sect were all familiar with this martial arts champion and were not intimidated by his title. One after another, disciples went up on stage to spar with him, but all of them were defeated by him.

"I come!"

As a female voice rang out, Chai Yunshang, dressed in a blue robe from the Qingxiao Sect, leaped and landed on the martial arts arena.

When Li Yang saw that his opponent was a woman, he frowned slightly, and his subconscious thought was to refuse.

"Your marksmanship is good, but your internal strength is lacking," Chai Yunshang said.

Li Yang was very unhappy with these words. The other person's tone was like lecturing him, which reminded him of Zhao Linglong in the audience.

Even after a year, he still harbored resentment over Zhao Linglong's deception, and he had not yet vented his anger.

very good!

I'll take it out on this woman today!

Li Yang raised his spear, pointing it at Chai Yunshang, and said, "Then let me see how powerful your internal strength is." Chai Yunshang drew her sword and said, "The internal strength of the Qingxiao Sect is unparalleled in the world."

Li Yang was furious upon hearing this and immediately drew his gun to attack Chai Yunshang.

……

As evening fell, Li Qingqiu returned to Lingxiao Courtyard with Yuan Li and Zhao Zhen. As soon as they entered the courtyard, Yang Jueding came to greet them.

"It's too early for the sect competition. It shouldn't be held before the situation is completely stable, lest it give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it."

Li Qingqiu spoke first, stopping Yang Jueding from speaking.

As the head of Guangyuan Hall, Yang Jueding had always wanted to hold a grand event for Qingxiao Sect. Because the martial arts arena he founded had received a good response, he wanted to hold a sect-wide martial arts competition to encourage the disciples' fighting spirit.

But Li Qingqiu felt that now was not the right time.

"That's not it. I wanted to talk to you about whether you could transfer Chai Yunshang from the Enforcement Hall to my command. I don't have any geniuses under me; I need someone to hold things together," Yang Jueding said, shaking his head.

Li Qingqiu asked in surprise, "Why did you suddenly think of her?"

"This girl is growing too fast. Even the top martial arts champion is no match for her. How long has she been a disciple?" Yang Jueding exclaimed.

Li Qingqiu was not surprised to hear that Li Yang had lost to Chai Yunshang.

“That won’t do. This female disciple has already been designated by your senior brother as the head of the Enforcement Hall. You might as well think about moving Ning’er under your command.”

Li Dongyue, who was serving the dishes, chuckled softly.

Yang Jueding was surprised and asked, "Could this woman be a genius you've been secretly cultivating?"

No wonder Chai Yunshang has grown up so quickly.

Li Qingqiu smiled and said, "Hall Master Yang, there are more and more disciples in the sect. You should learn to discover them yourself, instead of waiting for others to stand out before trying to win them over."

After saying that, he walked around Yang Jueding and headed towards the long table.

Yuan Li and Zhao Zhen followed closely behind.

Yang Jueding was somewhat unconvinced and turned around to speak, but when he saw Zhao Zhen's back, he suddenly choked.

Now, geniuses are emerging one after another in the sect, but if we're talking about the most terrifying genius, it has to be this kid surnamed Zhao.

His competitive spirit was ignited; he refused to believe he couldn't discover a genius.

After Li Qingqiu sat down, Li Sijin came over and said, "Senior Brother, the spiritual plant experiment has been successful. I want a piece of land to plant spiritual plants on a large scale, and I need the Spiritual Wealth Hall to allocate some money."

"If you want land, go to Tiangong Hall; if you want money, go to your fourth senior sister. Just ask and say I agree."

Li Qingqiu casually remarked that he valued spiritual plants highly and was willing to allocate resources to them.

"Thank you, senior brother!"

Li Sijin happily hugged him and rested her face on his shoulder.

"You're all grown up now, you need to be mindful of the differences between boys and girls."

"The distinction between men and women is only for outsiders. Why should I tell you these things, Senior Brother? Even if you get married and have children, I will still hold you!"

"You girl..."

Li Qingqiu had no choice but to let her do as she pleased.

Speaking of his junior brothers and sisters, only Li Sijin did not change her personality as she got older. He thought it was good that she was like that, so he rarely taught her how to conduct herself.

Subsequently, the elders of the Training Hall came to find Li Qingqiu. Since Li Sifeng was not there, they could only ask him to make decisions on many matters.

Li Qingqiu has begun to get used to people contacting him at any time.

Upon hearing that the government wanted to pay Qingxiao Sect disciples to hunt down a notorious womanizer in the martial arts world, as this womanizer was extremely skilled in martial arts and the elders of the Training Hall were afraid they wouldn't be able to defeat him, Li Qingqiu immediately agreed and asked the elders of the Training Hall to write down the task so that the disciples could freely sign up to take on the mission.

After the elders of the Training Hall left, Li Qingqiu muttered, "Why haven't Third Junior Brother and Sixth Junior Brother returned yet?"

Li Dongyue sat down beside him and chuckled softly, "Don't worry, they're not in any danger with their strength. It must be that kid Sifeng was playing around and wasted time."

Li Qingqiu nodded, and then started talking to her about other things.

……

Under the cover of night, a torrential downpour began.

In the mountains and forests, Jiang Zhaoxia and Li Sifeng stood in front of a large tree. The two were dressed in black, with black veils on their faces and straw hats on their heads. They each held a sword.

Behind them stood a woman in soaking wet clothes, staring ahead in terror.

Rumbling--

Lightning flashed, illuminating the dim forest, and countless mysterious figures wielding knives were approaching from ahead.

These mysterious figures all wore straw hats and demon masks, exuding a murderous aura and putting immense pressure on the woman in plain clothes.

Li Sifeng muttered, "Senior brother, why do they look so much like people from the Demonic Sect?"

Jiang Zhaoxia replied calmly, "It shouldn't be. Their masks are somewhat different from those of the Demonic Sect; they look like another ghost face. Be careful; these people are skilled in martial arts, so watch out for their hidden weapons."

Having said that, he stepped forward, facing the group of enemies ahead alone.

Li Sifeng turned his head to look at the woman in plain clothes behind him and said, "Hey, we've killed wave after wave of people to save you, so don't play us for fools, you and your father."

The woman in plain clothes withdrew her gaze and said cautiously, "You must be very careful. I'm afraid they've already taken the Martial God Pills I refined."

"Now that you mention it, I'm really curious to see just how strong their people become after taking the Martial God Pill," Li Sifeng chuckled softly, then turned around to look.

As another clap of thunder illuminated the forest, Jiang Zhaoxia moved, drawing her sword and charging towards the enemy forces ahead.
