Daoist Master Of Qing Xuan Chapter 236 - The Devilry of Dark Skies

Chapter 236 - The Devilry of Dark Skies

The three disciples of Zhengyi sect were speechless. The green-dressed girl was clenching her fists. Their Zhengyi Sect was also a considerably large sect, but still quite a distance away from Guangqing Sect.
For centuries, Guangqing had the five land immortals guarding the sect entrance. Other than Xuantian Sect, no other sects dared to offend them.
Guangqing had been expanding rapidly, taking in disciples and spells, with the intention to strengthen its essence. There was a rumor about a few Celestials with thousand years of heritage being exterminated, and all these were the works of Guangqing.
The three of them were here on their master's orders. They were also well-taken care by Xuantong. The item that they had prepared would have satisfied the owner of the Evergreen Flower. With this intervention by Huang Longzi, it was unsure then whether they were able to bring the Evergreen Flower back.
As Huang Longzi heard from Xuantong, he said, "You and me, we both born from the heavens and die on earth, only part of the living beings. Even if we surpass that, the earth here still belonged to the heavens. Everyone could go, and why are you chasing me away? Even the spirits of the mountains, rivers, and lakes were only executing the heaven's orders, yet they were not that unapproachable."
His words sounded so noble, his body filled with Dao aura, and the yellow cloud below his feet, stayed stationary and collected, signifying his solid cultivation.
The Incantation of Dragon Transformation that he mastered enables him to transform into a Five Clawed Dragon. Even when he was now in human form, there was still a subtle aura of the dragon around him. Dragons fly above all beings with full majesty, prompting all other beings to bow before whenever they see one.
Although all the attendees were highly ranked in cultivation, they could still feel the spiritual pressure emitted from Huang Longzi, which was kind of suffocating.
Especially those demonic cultivators felt an even stronger restriction on them.
Only Qing Huanger and Xuantong Demon Queen were the exceptions. Yet Qing Huanger had assessed the whole situation and kept quiet, he obviously also knew of the ruthlessness of Guangqing and not to oppose against.
Xuantong Demon Queen could not help giggling. Even Zhenren Shen, the chief of Qing Xuan Sect was acting politely, not as pushy as him lot from the Guangqing Sect. Could it be that she had preserved herself for these years that all people had forgotten about the work done to achieve what she had today?
Xuantong said lightly, "Since the conversation has been brought up to this level, I have nothing else to interact with you. However, if you can receive my sword attack, I will let this one go and let you do what you want."
Huang Longzi smiled back, "Very well, Daoist friend, you are such straightforward person. If only I was not so desperate to get this Evergreen Flower, I would not want to cause trouble here."
Judging from the persistence of a Daoist cultivator, this conversation had to end here, and all had to come down to a duel of Daoist techniques.
Manjushri, the Bodhisattva of keen awareness, killed hundred thousand of demon soldiers when he attained Dao. In actuality, highly skilled Daoists may be retaining themselves in good behavior and would not start a fight, but when a real situation ensues, they would not back down as well.
Huang Longzi also wanted to get the Evergreen Flower directly, but he knew very well that this treasure was untradable, all thanks to his premonition to predict the future events.
Shen Lian sat up, as he got the opportunity to witness the great prowess of Xuantong Demon Queen. She possessed a very wide range of spells, was a talent amongst the demons. It seemed like she was going to use her sword skills today to chase Huang Longzi away.
Xuantong Demon Queen hauled on, "Jingting."
The child smiled and shook his body, then appeared as a gleam of sword's ray, and then it fell on Xuantong's hand.
He was a piece of Jiejian Stone on Mount Jingting. For hundreds of years, there were countless sword cultivators who turned up at the mountain gates of Green Lotus Sect to place their sword on him as a sign of respect.
Hence, he was under the influence of countless sword aura. This Jiejian Stone has its own spiritual consciousness as well. When Xuantong Demon Queen first achieved Shentong, she moved effortlessly in Green Lotus Sword Sect and took the Green Lotus Sword Codex by force, and materialized this rock into a Daoist child and a sword for her.
The sword was clear as water, its hilt, guard, and blade had no other decorations. As it fell onto Xuantong's hand, the sword and yielder fused into one, not one would tell the difference whether the sword aura was emitted from Xuantong or was it from the sword. Many sword cultivators might spend their whole lives but still could not catch a glimpse of this high-skilled way of sword.
Xuantong Demon Queen arose, took a step in the void, then reached Huang Longzi's altitude.
Both of their eyes stared fiercely, accompanied by their long and unpredictable breath.
Suddenly, a sword glided through the skies with an almost unmatchable speed.
Huang Longzi had been matching this up silently, but he did not expect the speed of Xuantong's sword gleam, as it all happened in a split second, almost impossible to defend.
The yellow cloud below his foot shook and split into two streams of airflow, forming almost two rivers in the void, with its current flowing endlessly.
This step itself had everyone in amazement.
This step by Huang Longzi was not only exquisite but was also made with refined and rich mana, that surpassed most of the people there.
The air current rolled on and held the sword aura down, whereas another stream came in like a dragon wagging its tail, charged up towards Xuantong Demon Queen's body.
However, the sword aura was indeed extraordinary. In a movement, the sword aura burst and split into nine lively green lotuses with both its flower and leaves.
The nine lotus flowers sit on top of the air stream, and all the essence water entered the flowers as if they were sucked into it.
As the lotus flowers rotated, every one of them appeared to be white, crystal clear like the pearl, and as the skylight hit on them, they all turned into seven gorgeous colors.
The crowd was trying to admire the view when they saw the dews on the lotus leaves flew out to form thousands of water drop shaped sword aura sped through the air and pierced through Huang Longzi. The sharp sword aura filled the void all around. Before the aura hit him, he was shocked to feel a sensation as if his orifice points were combusting.
This demon queen was such a genuinely feared character. She managed to cultivate the Green Lotus Sword Codex to the extent of 'One Sword Splitting into Nine Lotuses', which could take in the essence of all waters and release the top sword technique of 'Outflowing Lotus'.
He knew very well, if he got attacked by the thousand droplets of water, he would not get away so easily. Even though Xuantong Demon Queen said that she would release one step, but that one step had a thousand varieties, finally entrapping him. She might just follow through and leave him some souvenirs.
Although Huang Longzi got a bit fl.u.s.tered, he transferred his mana and transformed into a dragon in a blink, with waving whiskers and shining scales.
The thousand water droplets had him encased, with the sword aura hitting on its scales; as the sounds of collision between metal and gold could be heard. Finally, it still did not penetrate the dragon's shield of scale.
All the audience could not help but thought, "This yellow dragon is really one of its kind."
Before this thought was done, Xuantong Demon Queen was seen putting up a Dao formula, and her hands lit up. She held a deadly Qi of devilry, threw it out like a flash, which then rammed through the dragon scales, leaving a big splash of bloody mist in the void.
Now the audience was in shock, they all thought, "That was more than one step."
Huang Longzi even yelled in pain, "The Devilry of the Dark Skies, you possess this sort of demonic technique!"
Almost immediately after that, he disappeared into the sea of clouds, accompanied with the blood mist. Huang Longzi also did not expect Xuantong Demon Queen to go against her words, that she would attack him after one step, using the long lost demonic technique, The Devilry of the Dark Skies, to kill him.
The Devilry of the Dark Skies was a mystical technique in the Dao of demons, created specifically to break through the protection of the Daoist cultivations. It did not matter if the opponent had the body of a
Vajra, a hit would still inflict a great deal of injury.
But once this Devilry of Dark Skies was released, not only would it take a long time to gather, it also required some specific Qi of devilry, coupled with a certain evil act to master. Once mastered, it would still be wise to use it moderately.
Xuantong Demon Queen may not have defeated Huang Longzi in one step as she mentioned, but she still had the upper hand in the end.
All the spectating cultivators just thought that Xuantong Demon Queen had just got herself into big trouble.
Not mentioning the five land immortals in Guangqing, even the other eleven apprentice siblings were all Daoist Masters of Powang level, especially there was Daoist Huanzhen with a level that was approaching the gods.
If he really brought his apprentice siblings here to seek revenge from Xuantong, it would be impossible for Xuantong Demon Queen to save this celestial market even if she ran away.
Maybe this time, Guangqing would take this opportunity to take over this celestial market and monopolize the trade business.
Even though Xuantong Demon Queen claimed that she had studied Daoism under Lu Jiuyuan, all the other cultivators would not believe that Xuantian Sect would stand up for her.
With Lu Jiuyuan around, the Guangqing would never act opposingly to Xuantian Sect, the top Daoist sect in the world, no matter how arrogant they were.
The girl in green sighed in relief, and whispered, "What shall we do now, Third Senior Apprentice-Brother? Senior Xuantong has offended Guangqing for our sake, this is not good."
Third Senior Apprentice-Brother remained calm, "When Senior Xuantong ruled the world, both you and I were not born yet. She must have her reason to do such act. Guangqing has been acting quite ruthlessly. Grand Master did say, it would over flourish and then weaken down, and we the Zhengyi Sect mustn't just sit back and watch."
As compared to the serenity of the four grand Daoist sects, Guangqing sect was more worldly and they had the ambition to revamp the Xuanmen and rebuild the order of the cultivation realm.
Although revamping the Xuanmen and rebuilding order may be helpful in promoting interaction between cultivators, but no sect would be willing to be part of this revolution.
The Grandmaster's orthodoxy of thousand years was so carefree. Though small, the sect was enough for one to fit in, much better than being restricted by the rules set by another sect.
When Shen Lian saw how Xuantong Demon Queen injured Huang Longzi, he could not figure out why Xuantong would do such a thing. After all, no matter how high Xuantong's cultivation level was, it was still inferior to Mister Hai's level. All the twelve masters in Guangqing had cultivation levels as high as Huang Longzi's. If two or three of them came, they would not be easy to handle.
The Treasure Auction was about to end then. Shen Lian walked over to find Zhao Xiaoyu after collecting his bidded treasure.
Looking from far, she stood there alone, so prettily like a lotus flower emerging from the water. One could only admire from far, and not offend her. As she saw Shen Lian walking over, she could not hold back her smile, "This is the first time Mister Shen came over to look for me. I am actually quite shocked."
Her face was wearing the emotions of surprise and delight, just like the saying, 'After seeing the man, there is no reason to not be happy'.
Shen Lian felt a bit helpless, that women's thoughts were sometimes so difficult to read. Now he could not tell if Zhao Xiaoyu was being genuine or not.
