Rainbow fades away, one strike kills.
Such terrifying power.
Such ruthless methods.
It truly shocked the onlookers hiding in the shadows!
In the Fairyland of Penglai.
Feeling Chen Yun's one-hit kill of Shen Xiu, King Wang Xuanyu of the Eastern Realm displayed a mysterious smile on his face, and then involuntarily sighed heavily, "My precious grandchild has quite the reputation already, but his cultivation and realm have improved so swiftly. In fact, even without the Bodhi branch given by Sakyamuni, he could have eliminated that woman in the Star Constellation Sea. It would just require some extra effort."
Chen Yun quickly killed the powerful demoness who was stronger than himself.
This is the place where Wang Xuanyu feels relieved.
Therefore, he smiled.
Wang Xuanyu sighed completely because Chen Yun accepted Sakyamuni's "kind offer".
The six-foot golden body.
Pure gold.
All of these can be considered compensation.
No need to bear the consequences.
The Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree is different.
This is a sacred treasure forged by combining the branches of the first Bodhi tree when the world was created and the seven treasures of Buddhism.
Chen Yun took it, and thus, the karmic cause and effect were set in motion.
As the saying goes, "one must be soft when eating another's mouth."
Chen Yun, having acquired such a heavy treasure, will surely return a fruit to Buddhism in the future.
Wang Xuanyu shook his head, "Sakyamuni is very calculating. It seems that in the future, my apprentice may have to repay Buddhism with an avatar."
However, overall, Wang Xuanyu was very satisfied with Chen Yun's performance today.
"But..." Wang Xuanyu was curious, "Although I deduced that it would be alright to get hit, how can he resist the power of Zi and Qing Dual Swords?"
...
Beiqi Mountain.
The Jade Maiden couldn't help but exclaim, "Master Chen's cultivation has improved so quickly?"
The Golden Boy seemed quite surprised, "When I last saw him, he had just reached the level of High-function Monk, but now he's already in the middle stage?"
From the surface, it seems that eighteen years have passed since Chen Yun's last visit to Beiqi Mountain.
It seems that Chen Yun's advancement to a high-function monk was a matter of course.
But the Golden Boy and the Jade Maiden know that Chen Yun went to Mount Lingjiao and "lost" sixteen years.
This means that in just a few more than two years, Chen Yun has actually advanced from the early to the middle stage of a high-function monk?
This advancement is undoubtedly significant.
It is precisely because of this that the Golden Boy and the Jade Maiden look somewhat surprised.
Lu Dongbin, on the other hand, looked calm and simply said with interest, "The power of the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree given by Sakyamuni Buddha is indeed considerable. This is just in its sealed state. If all its locks were unlocked, perhaps this Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree would be even more fierce than my Female and Male Dual Swords."
...
Wang Xuanyu and Lu Dongbin, due to their high cultivation and realm, were able to deduce more information, so they were not overly surprised by Chen Yun's one-hit kill of Shen Xiu.
However, others are different.
The child sent by Erlangshen was originally hiding thousands of miles away to watch the battle.
Suddenly, he felt an irresistible mighty power surging through the universe.
Even though it was thousands of miles away, it made him, the master level cultivator, feel extremely suppressed.
The child was stunned and exclaimed, "Mr. Chen's power makes me feel uneasy even though I'm thousands of miles away. What kind of grand technique is so powerful?"
Before he could finish being amazed, he saw a rainbow flash and then disappear, followed by an explosion of terrifying power in the sky.
In one area, all the matter was annihilated under the power.
Seeing this, the child's pupils dilated, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath, "Whoa, such power is formidable even to me. Mr. Chen is only a middle-stage high-function monk, yet he can unleash such strong power. It's truly terrifying!"
Without realizing it, he glanced at the tightly grasped silver ball in his hand, revealing a strange expression. "Maybe today won't need my master's divine instrument after all. Mr. Chen, you're quite fierce."
...
The summit of a small mountain.
Xie Ziran's disciple Han Ziming tightly held the Galaxy Jade Pen, and looked at the twin suns with a stunned expression.
Her eyes widened in disbelief, "A high-function monk of mid-stage has just killed a high-function monk of late-stage?"
Most crucially, Han Ziming just watched very clearly that Shen Xiu borrowed power from the stars and her strength surged to the early stage of master level.
Perhaps it is just the power level that is equal, and it cannot really compete with the early stage of a master level.
However, after Chen Yun manifested his body form, his power was only slightly weaker than Shen Xiu's, which is undoubtedly shocking!
How could a high-function monk of the middle stage, just by relying on his body form, bridge such a huge gap?
Even more terrifying is that after manifesting his body form, Chen Yun used the branch in his hand to instantly kill Shen Xiu!
Han Ziming was truly shocked by Chen Yun's terrifying burst of power.
She murmured in amazement, "No wonder Master has such a high regard for Chen Pu. To reach such a realm and unleash such power is truly a rare sight."
...
In the ocean.
Yu Ji watched with delight, "This child is indeed the best choice to inherit my and your great teachings. He has exceptional talent, a firm mind, ruthless methods, and is the best candidate for defending the way."
Zuo Chi nodded in agreement and said, "At first, I was still thinking about how he would break through the power of Zhou Tian Xingzhen Sword, but I never thought he would obtain such a terrifying divine instrument. With one strike, he defeated the outstanding disciple of Xinghe Sea's second generation. His thunderous methods are truly worthy of being a guardian of the way. He is truly ruthless, but fear only the weak."
Yu Ji was happy for a moment, but then unconsciously frowned and said, "His current strength is indeed very strong, but there are also two stronger second-generation disciples of Xinghe Sea hidden in the shadows, and they also possess the Female and Male Dual Swords. I'm afraid it won't be easy for this child to cope with them."
Zuo Chi revealed a mysterious smile and said, "The two of them are true master-level cultivators. Even if Chen Pu has this miraculous branch, it's indeed difficult to shake one of them. But as long as he can escape, the next time may not be so fortunate."
Yu Ji asked curiously, "If he cannot shake one of them, how can he escape?"
Zuo Chi said with a look of disbelief, "Have you not sensed the many disciples of the orthodox schools of cultivation hiding around?"
Yu Ji smiled faintly and said, "Of course, I sensed it. I thought he could escape from their hands with his own strength."
Zuo Chi shook his head and said, "The Zi and Qing Dual Swords are ancient treasures. The Qing rope sword is a powerful divine weapon forged from the elemental qi of Eastern Wood's essence, and the Zi Ying sword was also forged from the elemental qi of Western Tai Bai. Both swords are immune to any demons or laws. When used together, their power is boundless. The Qin dynasty cultivator Ai Zhenzi once obtained them and swept across all heroes with them. Although Chen Pu now looks invincible in the mortal realm, he has never cultivated to the master level……Even if he reaches the master level, he is not an opponent for the Zi and Qing Dual Swords. It's almost impossible for him to escape from these two disciples of Xinghe Sea with his own strength."
At this point, he paused for a moment.
Zuo Chi continued, "However, as long as someone helps him, he will definitely be able to escape. Perhaps he can even use that branch divine instrument to capture the Zi and Qing Dual Swords. At that time, as long as he knows who is behind the scenes, he can gather his disciples and powerful weapons to attack Qinling Mountain and completely reverse the situation."
Yu Ji's eyes lit up, and he said, "If he wants to know who has been causing trouble all along, he must learn our great teachings. Therefore, you and I can go and teach him the law after this battle?"
Zuo Chi laughed heartily, "The 'Taoist Almanac' has been hidden in my hands for too long, its brilliance obscured. It's time for it to shine again!"
Yu Ji did not respond to Zuo Chi's words, but his gaze was also flickering, secretly thinking about the inheritance of the 'Book of Heavenly Peace and Clarity.' Its transmission will soon have a successor.
...
"What?"
"How incredible is Chen Shixiong?"
"One move to kill that witch?"
"Master also ordered me to come and assist, so it seems that my assistance is a mere guise, and I am actually here to witness Master Chen Shixiong's prowess."
The disciples dispatched by various deities, such as He Xiangguo, Cao Guojiu, Han Xiangzi, Tie Guanli, Zhang Guoliu, etc., were all hidden in different ranges to watch the scene. They were all astonished in their hearts.
Although these people have cultivation levels far superior to Chen Yun's, they are all very clear in their hearts that when they were at the same level of cultivation, they were not able to achieve such prowess as Chen Yun.
Among them, the most shocking was Chen Yun's "little brother" Zhang Jiwen.
At this moment, he was standing tall in the cloud sea, watching Chen Yun unleash his divine might and strike down Shen Xiu in one move.
"Back when I first met my brother, he was just a medium-grade wizard. I never thought that twenty-odd years later, he would rapidly advance to the middle stage of a high-function monk, while I still hover around the master level."
Zhang Jiwen truly felt amazed.
Although his advancement became slower due to the inner Dan Art that he transferred from Zhong Lifi, his cultivation level.
But it is precisely because he has practiced the inner Dan Art taught by Zhong Lifi, that Zhang Jiwen understands how difficult it is to raise one's cultivation level through inner cultivation.
Yes, the inner Dan Art is exceptionally powerful.
So it can be said that the inner Dan Art is the integration of various schools of the Taoist divine arts.
Whether it is refining the form, nurturing the spirit, or refining qi, all of them are included.
An inner Dan Art is not just a martial art; it's a manual of cultivation, encompassing more than just techniques.
That's also because the things included in inner Dan Art are too numerous, with very high requirements for talent.
Even if one is a true prodigy, their cultivation speed won't be too fast.
This is something that Zhang Jiwen has deeply experienced.
He is already a master-level cultivator and has spent over twenty years trying to cultivate a golden core, but he has yet to succeed.
If he starts cultivating the inner Dan Art from scratch, he has every reason to believe that with his extraordinary talent, he can at most cultivate to the medium-grade wizard level.
But what about Chen Yun?
He achieved the status of a high-function monk of the middle stage in just over twenty years!
At this moment, Zhang Jiwen finally understood the colossal difference in talent between him and Chen Yun.
...
The disciples dispatched by various deities all seemed to be somewhat surprised.
However, those disciples were not the most shocked.
The two most shocked people were definitely Xuanzhenzi and Dongmiaofuren.
They had previously planned that if Shen Xiu encountered any danger, they would launch a rescue immediately.
However, what they did not expect was that Chen Yun was too fierce. With just one move, he defeated Shen Xiu.
There was no time for them to react!
Two cultivators of the master level, powerful beings.
Or those who were prepared in advance.
How could they have stood by and watched their junior brother be brutally killed, but fail to rescue him in time?
If this were to be spread, it would undoubtedly cause the two of them to lose face!
In fact, losing face is secondary.
The most angry thing for Xuanzhenzi and Dongmiaofuren was that Chen Yun killed their little apprentice, Shen Xiu, whom they had watched grow up from a young age.
This instantly filled Xuanzhenzi and Dongmiaofuren with a boiling anger that surged through their chests!
"So you little thief!"
Xuanzhenzi's hands were trembling in anger, and his entire body's strength suddenly erupted, soaring into the sky in an instant, transforming into a column of emerald qi that gathered like smoke.
Although Dongmiaofuren said nothing, her body's purple qi also erupted, instantly spreading to the high heavens, swirling and covering tens of thousands of miles!
The two are enraged, their burning anger making them want to rush to kill Chen Yun on the East Sea without hesitation.
Following the release of their power, with two light thuds, the Zi and Qing Dual Swords emerged from their sheaths together!
