From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

Jiang Liu vanished without a trace, as if he had never been there at all.

"Come with me, let's destroy Muzan Kibutsuji and end the fate that binds you." Zhao Yingkong woke the two up and said this.

"understand!"

Chapter 1371 The Final Battle (Part 7) A Sword Splits the Moon

Fifty miles outside the new capital city.

The once lush forests have vanished, the mountains are broken, and the earth is sunken, resembling an apocalyptic scene after a meteorite impact on a planet.

whoosh-

A beam of white light descended from the sky and crashed to the ground, causing the earth to tremble.

Inside the pit, a man nearly ten feet tall, with dragon horns and dragon wings, crawled out. He coughed up a mouthful of blood, his muscles twitching as he quickly repaired his injuries. Wiping the blood from his mouth, he looked up at the creature with blood-red wings, holding the Tiger Soul Blade, standing in mid-air, also panting heavily, and scoffed, "Are you really my clone? If you have the guts, put down your blade and have a fair duel between real men!"

"I'm not as naive as you!"

The clone Zheng Zha sneered, but did not continue to make a move, instead turning his gaze to a side a hundred meters away from Zheng Zha.

There appeared a man with his hair in a topknot, dressed in modern clothes, holding a long sword... Upon seeing the sword, the clone Zheng Zha recalled the "negative one" message that the main god had previously sent him, and sneered: "Zhao Zhuikong was killed by you, a native? What a piece of trash, the Chi You Sword was actually taken away by someone from a horror movie."

Zheng Zha then noticed Jiang Liu's arrival. Overjoyed, he spread his dragon wings and quickly retreated to Jiang Liu's side, saying with a smile, "Brother Jiang, you've come to help me!"

"Surname Jiang?"

The clone Zheng Zha heard it clearly and confirmed the person's identity—Jiang Liu. He then sneered at Zheng Zha, "I wondered how a coward like you could hold out until now. Turns out you have someone backing you up!"

Are you jealous?

Not to be outdone, Zheng Zha retorted.

But this sentence caused the clone Zheng Zha's cold laugh to freeze instantly.

Because he was genuinely jealous of the original body!

Despite being so innocent, he has companions, a beautiful girl, and even a Taiyi Immortal/Daluo Immortal to guide him... He's practically the "protagonist."

And what about yourself?

The young girl was humiliated to death...

He didn't truly acknowledge any of the other members of the Demon Team either...

There was no teacher-like figure to guide him on how to confront his inner self...

They had absolutely nothing!

Jealousy? Ha!

The clone Zheng Zha sneered twice, and the Tiger Soul Blade pointed directly at Zheng Zha, "Only by abandoning love and friendship can you obtain true power!"

There is only one rule in this world: the survival of the fittest!

Weakness is the greatest original sin!

In an instant.

The clone Zheng Zha swung his sword, creating a blade aura nearly a thousand meters long. The wind howled, the flames roared, and a boundless hatred swept down from above.

Jiang Liu simply exhaled, and the wind dissipated, the flames vanished, and the hatred disappeared. Startled, the clone Zheng Zha retreated abruptly. Seeing Zheng Zha's mocking smile, Jiang Liu roared, "Zheng Zha, are you only brave enough to hide behind him? Come out and fight me one-on-one!"

Zheng Zha retorted, "If you've got the guts, throw away your Tiger Soul Blade and let's have a real man's fight, fist to fist!"

The clone Zheng Zha roared, "Come up here if you dare!"

Zheng Zha angrily shouted, "Come down here if you dare!"

"Come up here!"

"Get down!"

The two exchanged a passionate insult, which made Jiang Liu burst out laughing.

This also drew the attention of Zheng Zha and his clone.

"Your argument is like children arguing," Jiang Liu teased.

Zheng Zha looked embarrassed.

The clone Zheng Zha's complexion was also not good.

Jiang Liu disregarded their inner thoughts, simply handing the sword to Zheng Zha and giving him a push, saying, "The Chi You Sword was forged by the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden from a special metal found among celestial bodies. It possesses its own spirit and was once the weapon of Chi You in this world. However, he was influenced by its energy, and his temperament gradually became violent..."

You must harness its energy field and transform its brutality into your own.

"Can you do it?"

The moment Zheng Zha received the Chi You Sword, he indeed sensed a special energy field within it that tried to influence his mind. However, he had already awakened the light of his mind, and with a soft hum, he unified with the energy field of the Chi You Sword, completely mastering it.

"Let's fight!"

With a weapon in hand, Zheng Zha flapped his dragon wings and leaped into the sky, engaging in a fierce battle with the clone of Zheng Zha.

But we see:

Sword and saber, both under the same master, display their sharpness in the struggle for victory. The sword is inspired by the celestial maiden, while the saber is forged by the human lord from the soul of a beast. Both are weapons in the hands of Chi You, though their forms are identical, their appearances are different.

This sword, bloodthirsty and tyrannical, seeks the righteous path.

That knife, filled with boundless hatred, plunged into evil sorrow.

The advice is: "Lolita is dead, don't be obsessed; face the bleak reality and there is hope."

That roar: "The law of the jungle is the only truth, and I'm determined to annihilate you to my satisfaction!"

At first, the words were soft, then the curses roared. Swords came, blades clashed, shaking the void; blades went, swords met them, shattering the heavens. White light flashed, malevolent flames spewed, a hidden dragon rose into the sky, opening heaven and earth; a demon fell, destroying the primordial chaos. Yin and Yang collided, giving birth to a black hole; spacetime was distorted, fraught with peril; the slightest mistake—

See Yama, the King of Hell.

Zheng Zha and his clone fought for nearly 150 rounds without a clear victor. However, Zheng Zha had more stamina and spirit, and finally found a weakness in the clone. Stepping into the void, he swiftly and decisively unleashed a sword strike amidst a deafening roar, slicing through the clone's head. The sword's momentum did not diminish, piercing the void and striking the full moon hanging high in the sky.

That night.

Across the land, ordinary people and those practicing Qi cultivation all sensed it, waking up with a start, rushing out of their homes, and looking up at the sky. They saw a thin, elongated slit appear in the very center of the full moon—

The bright moon was actually cut in two!

The various factions of the Zhengyi, Quanzhen, Shaolin, Lü family, Wang family, and Lu family were all filled with fear, wondering how the moon hanging high in the sky had suddenly split in two.

The Gao family was the most terrified.

Because this family was located in the Northeast, and there were still many Gao family members in the new capital city, they were able to survive by chance thanks to the supernatural abilities of the elves. However, they also witnessed the great battle between "gods and demons". Many of the Gao family members who ran out of the new capital city even saw Zheng Zha fighting against his clone Zheng Zha from afar, and even witnessed Zheng Zha's feat of splitting the moon in two with his sword.

God!

Demon!

In the instant these cultivators regained their senses, they felt dizzy and found themselves standing right in front of Jiang Liu.

"saint!"

The Gao family's cook, Gao Sheng, was the first to cry out "Sage!" He was trembling with fear, but he still covered his head and shouted to Jiang Liu, "Sage, you are all-powerful! Please save our lives!"

"I am not a saint, but merely a cultivator. I have summoned you here because there is something I wish to discuss with you. Please forgive my intrusion."

Jiang Liu surveyed the cultivators in the new capital city who had not been relocated by him. Most of them were members of the Gao family, but he was not arrogant. He raised his hands in a fist salute and said.

“Sage, please speak! We are willing to serve you like dogs and horses, even if it means going through fire and water!” Gao Sheng said righteously.

Seeing this, Jiang Liu stopped correcting him and simply said, "Because the Japanese pirates were secretly capturing people to research super soldiers, I transferred 130,000 people from the new capital to Yuhang..."

You are probably aware of the changes happening in the city. Those Japanese pirates are playing with lives, turning themselves into "ghosts," feeding on people, and spreading their disease through biting. If they are allowed to escape, the world will surely be in turmoil.

Therefore, please, along with the local spirits, stay here and guard the place to prevent any 'ghost' from escaping..."

Chapter 1372 The Final Battle (Part 8) The Sage's Command: I Dare Not Disobey

"this!"

Faced with Jiang Liu's request, Gao Sheng and the others trembled with fear.

They had seen the Twelve Ghost Moons and Ghost Soldiers in the city before, and had even fought against them. Although the Ghost Soldiers were not very strong, they were almost immortal. Even if their heads were cut off, they could be reattached and heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. They were true monsters!

"Don't worry."

Jiang Liu pointed, and a nine-aperture talisman appeared on the right hand of everyone, emitting a faint golden light. "By infusing this talisman with Qi, one can unleash the power of thunder, which can kill ghosts and monsters with a single strike."

It's not that I want you to hold out to the death, I just need you to hold out for one night.

Although most of the Japanese pirates in the city are arson, murder, looting, and committing all sorts of atrocities, they are ultimately unwilling to become man-eating demons and will inevitably cause internal strife. You only need to clear out the demon soldiers who have escaped from the city.

of course.

I won't teach you to work for free.

The nine-aperture talisman in your palms can only last for one night, but this talisman also encompasses my path of cultivation. If you can comprehend even a fraction of the principles of cultivation, attaining enlightenment will be a piece of cake.

Even if one lacks comprehension, it doesn't matter. With the blessing of this talisman, the effort gained from one night of cultivation is equivalent to a year's worth of training in the past.

"hiss--"

Gao Sheng and his group gasped in disbelief, staring at the nine-aperture talisman between their right palms.

Someone channeled their Qi, and the talisman in their palm indeed unleashed a bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket. Like a thunder dragon, it surged forth and instantly struck a giant rock over thirty meters in diameter a thousand meters away, blasting it to pieces. Moreover, the amount of Qi consumed was minimal; it could be replenished in just one breath!

Some people meditate and discover that an invisible force emerges from the talisman in their palm, actively assisting the circulation of Qi in the body. Moreover, this force will continue to nourish the meridians, so there is no need to worry about the "fatigue" that the meridians will experience when circulating Qi for a long time!

"call--"

at this time.

Zheng Zha descended from the sky and landed beside Jiang Liu, holding the Chi You Sword in one hand and the Tiger Soul Blade in the other. He dispelled the Hidden Dragon Transformation, his body shrank, and he transformed from a dragon-man into a normal height of nearly two meters. His face was slightly pale, and he exhaled heavily, his breath mixed with white light and fierce flames.

At the moment when the clone Zheng Zha was beheaded, the clone merged its own spiritual light into Zheng Zha's spiritual light, making him realize that the clone itself harbored a trace of will to die.

Without Lori, there is no love; enduring hardship and humiliation, there is no faith in friendship.

As a clone of Zheng Zha, even though he follows the law of the jungle where the strong prey on the weak, a touch of gentleness still exists deep in his heart.

Zheng Zha, having fused with the clone's spiritual light—the Fiery Blaze—has achieved a spiritual "fusion of Yin and Yang," reaching the advanced stage of the fourth tier of the Gene Lock. His control over power has become increasingly refined, and he has even vaguely grasped two supreme techniques...
