Wuxia: Ning Zhongze, who became a disciple of Mount Hua, is shrouded in blue silver.

Zhao Qing didn't say much, quietly followed Cheng Kun, and sneaked into the Ming Cult's secret passage.

He followed Cheng Kun the whole way without taking action; there was no need for it.

It would be most cost-effective to let Cheng Kun and the Ming Cult fight, and then intervene when they are both severely weakened.

Zhao Qing followed secretly the whole time without interfering.

Upon arriving at Bright Peak, he witnessed Cheng Kun launching a sneak attack on the Ming Cult members.

Zhao Qing still didn't make a move, hiding in the main hall and not showing himself.

Although the Ming Cult had many experts, no one discovered him.

Things proceeded as planned.

Cheng Kun launched a surprise attack on the Ming Cult members, and all of them were injured.

Zhang Wuji appeared midway and defeated Cheng Kun.

Cheng Kun escaped into a secret passage, and Zhang Wuji chased after him, only to be trapped in a secret room. He then took the opportunity to learn the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth.

The following afternoon, the six major sects besieged Bright Peak.

The White-browed Eagle King was fighting alone, but he couldn't hold on any longer.

Zhang Wuji stepped forward, ready to make his move.

Zhang Wuji walked up to the seriously injured White-browed Eagle King and said respectfully, "I am not a member of the Ming Cult or the Eagle Cult, but I have always admired you."

I am very happy to fight the enemy alongside you today.

Yin Tianzheng was puzzled when he heard this.

Zong Weixia of the Kongtong Sect stepped forward and shouted, "Old man Yin, take this punch!"

Zhang Wuji said directly, "Senior Yin said you are not qualified to compete with him. You must defeat me first before you can spar with him."

Zong Weixia immediately flew into a rage and shouted, "How dare you spout such nonsense, brat? I'll show you the power of the Seven Injury Fist of the Kongtong Sect!"

"The Seven Injury Fist of the Kongtong School? Very ordinary!"

Suddenly, a male voice rang out.

Everyone looked around, but couldn't find the source of the sound.

Don't look for it anymore, I told you so.

Everyone looked up in the direction of the sound and realized that it came from above, so they all looked up.

A handsome man in white stood on the beam of the Ming Cult's main hall.

After recognizing Zhao Qing, Zong Weixia of the Kongtong Sect became even more enraged, pointing at him and saying, "Boy, who are you?"

"A rainbow pierces the sun!"

Without saying much, Zhao Qing drew his Long Rainbow Sword, jumped down from the roof beam, and unleashed the Long Rainbow Piercing the Sun technique, directly attacking Zong Weixia.

Zong Weixia's expression changed drastically, and he immediately used the Seven Injury Fist to counter Zhao Qing.

The Seven Injury Fist of the Kongtong Sect is extremely powerful, and the force it unleashes far exceeds Zong Weixia's cultivation level.

The powerful force of the punch surged toward Zhao Qing like a giant wave.

Zhao Qing's Long Rainbow Sword was incredibly sharp, directly shattering Zong Weixia's fist force and piercing his chest.

The sword energy exploded, creating a terrifying spectacle, leaving dozens of sword marks on the ground.

"The Rainbow Sword, the Rainbow Sword Technique—it's Zhao Qing!"

Someone in the crowd recognized him.

When everyone heard "Zhao Qing"...

Everyone was shocked by his name; they never expected him to appear here.

"Why are you here, Yang? Today is the day of conflict between the Six Major Sects and the Ming Cult. Do you intend to interfere?"

The leader of the Huashan Sect questioned him.

The Huashan School is an ancient sect with branches in both the Ming and Mongol Yuan dynasties.

The Huashan School of the Ming Dynasty originated from the Huashan School of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty.

The Huashan School of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty was far superior to the Huashan School of the Ming Dynasty.

The Huashan Sect of the Ming Dynasty has now been absorbed, so this part of history is irrelevant.

Zhao Qing looked at the leader of the Huashan Sect and said directly, "I came here only to kill you all, or to be killed by you."

"Who's going to come up and die first?"

Zhao Qing was extremely arrogant.

Apart from Zhang Wuji, there were no other grandmaster-level experts present.

These people were too weak, and Zhao Qing didn't take them seriously at all.

Upon hearing Zhao Qing's words, everyone's expressions turned grim.

They were well aware of Zhao Qing's strength.

He is a top master ranked tenth on the Grandmaster List.

This person is cruel and vicious. He came here threatening to kill someone, and his purpose is very clear.

This person wants to improve their cultivation level and is using you as materials for alchemy.

Zhao Qing continued, "But the people of the Emei Sect can live."

He walked up to the Emei Sect and looked at Zhou Zhiruo.

Zhou Zhiruo was very beautiful, no less so than Zhao Min; she was an absolute beauty.

Zhao Qing pointed at Zhou Zhiruo and said to Abbess Miejue, "Abbess, your disciple is both beautiful and talented. Marry her to me."

I can spare your lives.

Humiliated in public, Abbess Miejue could not tolerate it and shouted, "Zhao Qing!"

You bastard, how dare you!

"Today I'll show you the power of the Heaven Sword!"

Before she could finish speaking, Abbess Miejue drew her Heaven-Slaying Sword, its light flashing as she aimed at Zhao Qing.

This sword strike was as fast as lightning and incredibly powerful.

Abbess Miejue is a top-tier expert; her full-force attack is even more powerful.

The sword energy radiated in all directions, its power astonishing.

But Zhao Qing easily blocked Abbess Miejue's attack by raising the sword above his head with just one hand.

The immense recoil caused Abbess Miejue to stumble backward; she would have fallen had someone beside her not caught her.

This proves that there is a significant difference in their martial arts skills.

Everyone was shocked by Zhao Qing's martial arts skills.

The atmosphere was very tense; no one spoke, and the scene was completely silent.

Zhao Qing turned and left, not wanting to get entangled with the people from the six major sects any longer.

Zhao Min had ambushed people at the foot of the mountain, so he wasn't worried about them escaping.

The six major sects are still useful, and Zhao Qing doesn't want to kill them all.

The martial arts of the six major sects are inferior, and refining them would be of little use; it would be better to spare their lives.

He walked towards the Ming Cult members, and Zhang Wuji immediately stepped forward to block Zhao Qing.

Zhang Wuji asked, "You're not a member of the six major sects, nor are you an enemy of the Ming Cult, so why did you do this?"

"Young Master Zhang, don't you recognize me?"

Zhao Qing asked with a smile.

I don't know you.

Zhang Wuji answered, guessing in his heart that Zhao Qing might know him.

But he didn't actually know Zhao Qing.

Zhao Qing smiled and said, "Then let me introduce myself."

"My name is Zhao Qing, and I am from the Ming Dynasty."

I was once the Northern Garrison Commander of the Ming Dynasty's Embroidered Uniform Guard.

"I stole the design blueprints for the Ming Dynasty's Hongyi cannons and defected to the Ruyang Prince's Palace in Mongolia. I am a traitor."

"The cultivation technique I practice is called the Crimson Fire Divine Skill, which can enhance my internal energy and strengthen my body."

"For me, all of you masters are the source of my skill."

Do you understand, Young Master Zhang?

After hearing Zhao Qing's words, Zhang Wuji immediately understood.

This person is a lackey of the Mongol court; he came here to drain everyone's power!

Zhang Wuji said firmly, "Since that's the case, I won't let you do whatever you want."

Please make a move!

Zhang Wuji had just mastered the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth, greatly increasing his martial arts skills and making him very powerful.

Zhao Qing didn't waste any words and immediately took action!

He struck Zhang Wuji with a palm, and Zhang Wuji countered with his own palm, the two exchanging blows.

In a direct clash of palm strikes, the contest is about whose skill is deeper and whose palm strike is stronger.

Zhao Qing is already at the mid-stage of Grandmaster, and his strength is clearly greater.

With a loud bang, Zhang Wuji was sent flying.

After flying more than ten zhang, he landed steadily and did a backflip to stand firmly.

Zhang Wuji's expression was serious.

He realized how terrifying Zhao Qing was as soon as they fought.

"Yin Five Thunder Technique - Northern Azure Pool!"

Zhao Qing slammed his palm on the ground, and a large amount of dirty water lightning flowed down his arm and onto the ground, soon spreading throughout the entire Ming Cult main hall!

The entire hall was covered by water-stained lightning.

However, Zhao Qing's skill level is now vastly different from before, and he has already mastered the Yin Five Thunder Technique.

His temperament was perfectly suited to the characteristics of the Yin Five Thunder Technique. Therefore, the Water-Dirty Thunder that Zhao Qing unleashed at this moment was extremely powerful!

Everyone present immediately felt the effects of the water-stained thunder on them.

Especially the members of the Ming Cult, who were still recovering from their injuries and had little fighting ability.

Now, encountering another water-borne mine, it is clear that they are somewhat unable to withstand it.
