Chapter 165: Chapter 89: Kill, Talisman, Huang Tian Sect Spy Register
Under this astounding transformation, the seemingly simple and unadorned long saber in the hands of the Huang Tian Sect General burst forth with a world-shocking and awe-inspiring might in an instant.
Qi surged around the blade like a dragon, coiling layer upon layer, raising goosebumps and emanating an oppressive aura that captured the soul.
With what seemed like a casual slice, Shen Qing felt as though he was caught in the midst of a storm, with no means of escape.
Shen Qing took a deep breath, his muscles tensing up.
He had pushed his Dragon Roar Armor to its limits.
A warm current surged wildly from his Dantian, quickly spreading throughout his body.
The next moment, the layer of film that had covered his skin due to the breakthrough of the Iron Cloth Shirt, upon his activation, became crystal clear and more substantial, wrapping him tightly like armor.
"Bang!"
The long saber struck the front of Shen Qing's chest, emitting a metallic cutting noise.
The originally invulnerable Golden Silkworm Armor was cleanly sliced open by this blow, with the blade landing on the transparent film over Shen Qing's chest.
A clear metallic scraping sound and a spray of scorching light burst forth.
In the heat of battle, Shen Qing couldn't help but step back two paces and sidestep to avoid the saber's remaining force.
After evading the follow-through, he quickly looked down to see a thick white mark left on his chest, resembling a deep scratch on a block of solid ice.
Beyond that, there was no discomfort whatsoever.
A look of surprise spread across Shen Qing's face, and he saw the Dragon Roar Armor's martial arts in a new light, gaining a clearer understanding of the crystalline film.
"How is this possible?"
In contrast to Shen Qing's composure, the Huang Tian Sect General looked as if he had seen a ghost.
Others might not know, but he was acutely aware of just how powerful his last strike was.
It wasn't an overstatement to call it his strongest attack, enhanced by the talisman.
Even a martial master of the Qi Hai Realm standing before him would have been severely injured.
Yet here was this fellow Qi Cultivation martial master who hadn't yet learned to project his Qi outside his body, nor form it into a solid mass, and he had blocked it with just his flesh and blood body; this overturned the general's understanding.
Realizing the terrifying defense of the Dragon Roar Armor, Shen Qing instantly felt a surge of confidence, and the corners of his mouth twitched upward slightly.
"As a martial master of the Qi Hai Realm, is this the extent of your ability?" he asked, locking eyes with his opponent.
The Huang Tian Sect General unconsciously met his gaze, only to see a pair of eyes like those of a wild beast awakening, flickering with a bloodthirsty light that made his heart skip a beat.
"You..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw a pair of fingers accompanied by a sharp, piercing woosh, thrust violently into his chest.
"Pugh!"
A faint yellow, semi-transparent light shield and runes, which had appeared abruptly in front of the Huang Tian Sect General, held against the unexpected pair of fingers.
No longer able to remain calm, the general swung his long saber in a broad arc, its sharp edge transforming into a streak of silver light as it chopped straight at Shen Qing's neck, "Die!"
"Nine Revolutions Mysterious Skill, Fifth Transformation!"
At that moment, the searing breath of the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Skill merged with the fierce Qi, erupting violently between Shen Qing's two fingers like a volcanic explosion, gushing forth.
Boom!
An ear-deafening explosion rang out, and heat waves and strong winds scattered in all directions. The Huang Tian Sect General's massive body was thrown back violently by the force of the impact, emitting a heart-wrenching scream.
Shen Qing's expression twitched, as the might of the Fifth Transformation of the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Skill far exceeded his expectations.
Feeling dizzy, Shen Qing almost subconsciously began to practice the Blood Dominance Technique, replenishing the deficit caused by the reversal of Qi-Blood.
He glanced at the Huang Tian Sect General, his expression turning fierce.
Strike while the enemy is sick, take his life.
Shen Qing leaped forward, carrying a heart-shaking, scorching breath as he thrust out his finger, once again landing precisely on the Huang Tian Sect General's chest.
Boom!
The Huang Tian Sect General had just managed to prop himself up and was struggling to rise when he was once again smashed back into the ground by the force of Shen Qing's strike.
The ground was forcefully indented, creating a deep crater two meters wide as dust flew around.
The semi-transparent light shield formed by the talisman was shattered instantaneously.
Once the power of the talisman was lost, his body shrank back to its original form at a visible rate.
```
"Ah!!" In the eyes of the Huang Tian Sect General, there was nothing but disbelief and horror: "My strength."
```
```
"It seems you are nothing special after all."
```
```
Shen Qing looked down from on high at the Huang Tian Sect General, his face showing a touch of disappointment.
```
```
He had thought that the person before him would at least bring him a little surprise, but it turned out he had only used eighty percent of his strength, still not reaching his limit.
```
```
If that was the case... then die!
```
```
Shen Qing once again activated the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Skill; he pointed his fingers together at the Huang Tian Sect General from afar.
```
```
Accompanied by an extremely scorching breath, the air around his fingers was distorted by the high temperature.
```
```
Realizing the immense danger, the Huang Tian Sect General screamed: "Spare... spare my life..."
```
```
But before he could finish speaking, he watched helplessly as a red glow burst forth from Shen Qing's fingertips, striking his chest.
```
```
A heart-wrenching, agonizing pain surged like a tide, instantly overwhelming his entire body.
```
```
The blazing Qi emitted by Shen Qing, with its terrifying strength, completely burned through his heart.
```
```
In that moment, the Huang Tian Sect General seemed to be suddenly imprisoned by an invisible force, turning into a statue, devoid of all movement.
```
```
His eyes were hollow as he stared at the sky, faintly revealing a sense of despair.
```
```
Suddenly, there was a deathly silence on the main road.
```
```
Only the slight sound of the wind brushing through the mountains and forests could be heard.
```
```
At this moment, Li Linfeng and the others were filled with disbelief, staring at Shen Qing with their mouths agape.
```
```
Even County Magistrate Du Yuntong, who had been discarded on the ground, was stunned into immobility.
```
```
Qi Hai Realm!
```
```
That was a martial master of the Qi Hai Realm.
```
```
Taiping County couldn't produce more than a few such individuals, yet you killed him like he was nothing more than a dog!!!
```
```
"Are you really Shen Qing?"
```
```
As Shen Qing's master, Li Linfeng had taken him as a disciple with astute discernment. Now, even his speech was trembling with a touch of nervousness.
```
```
Hearing this, Shen Qing's lips curved into a slight smile as he said, "Master, who else could I be besides Shen Qing? I'm hardly a big shot in Taiping County; who would pretend to be me?"
```
```
With his rich experience and deep understanding of Martial Arts, Li Linfeng recognized the martial arts that Shen Qing had just used. Apart from the Wind Defying Finger, there was also the Dragon Roar Armor, the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Skill, and some other martial arts he didn't understand.
```
```
Amazement was unmistakable in his eyes.
```
```
It was hard to imagine how so many martial arts could converge in one person and be cultivated to such a level of proficiency.
```
```
After a moment, the tension on Li Linfeng's face was slowly replaced by a look of excitement, and his body began to shake uncontrollably.
```
```
The same martial arts performed by different people would yield different results.
```
```
He never expected that in his lifetime he would train such a prodigy.
```
```
Worth it!
```
```
Absolutely worth it!
```
```
Apart from Li Linfeng, the others were also lost in shock for a long time.
```
```
Seeing the expressions of the crowd, Shen Qing couldn't help but give a wry smile.
```
```
Unconcerned with their gazes, he quickly walked over to the body of the Huang Tian Sect General and bent down.
```
```
This man held a high position within the Huang Tian Sect; he had to be searched.
```
```
Shen Qing's fingers swiftly searched through the clothing of the corpse, and as his agile fingers flipped through, a stack of talismans emitting a faint spiritual light quietly appeared before his eyes.
```
```
Glancing briefly at them, there seemed to be seven or eight in total.
```
```
Having seen the capabilities of the Huang Tian Sect General, he knew at once that these talismans were no ordinary items.
```
``` Find adventures on ???
Shen Qing joyfully accepted them.
```
```
In a moment, he also found a small triangular flag, a money pouch, and a thin booklet.
```
```
There was no text on the outside of the booklet. Shen Qing opened it to find it only contained some personal biographies and information, somewhat like a roster.
```
```
There was also a letter tucked inside the booklet.
```
```
Shen Qing didn't look closely, quickly putting these items away along with the rest.
