Mo Tiange was startled, but she didn't have time to think. She retracted the White Silk Handkerchief and released it, blocking the female cultivator's fierce claw.
This female cultivator's fighting method was different from the ones she'd seen before. She didn't simply use magic; she was like a martial artist from the secular world. Her hands were covered in gloves with sharp claws, and her attacks were like those of a demonic beast.
When she wandered around Kunwu with her Second Uncle, Mo Tiange had seen one or two cultivators like this. This kind of cultivator was generally called a martial cultivator.
The fighting method of martial cultivators was a combination of martial skills, similar to sword cultivators, but it relied more on the body and skills.
However, martial cultivators were a side path in the cultivation world. There might not be one or two martial cultivators among a thousand people. This female cultivator's methods weren't weak. Judging from her words, she also had a master, but Mo Tiange didn't know whose master she was.
In addition, this was Xuanqing School. Why did this female cultivator want to kill her just because she heard she was Lord Daoist Jinghe's disciple?
Not to mention several Nascent Soul cultivators, but even if a Core Formation cultivator passed by here, killing her would be as easy as raising their hands.
As these thoughts flashed through her mind, Mo Tiange once again put away the White Silk Handkerchief. She frowned and said coldly, "Senior Martial Sister, what do you mean?"
The female cultivator smiled coldly but didn't answer.
She still looked like she didn't want to talk to Mo Tiange, but she was actually nervous because her claw just now wasn't merciful at all. However, when Mo Tiange summoned the White Silk Handkerchief, it seemed she didn't use all her strength, yet she easily blocked it.
She was in the late stage of the Foundation Building realm and had always been arrogant. She believed that even if she didn't have the power to fight against an early stage Core Formation cultivator, it wouldn't be difficult for her to escape unscathed. However, her claw was easily blocked by a middle stage Foundation Building junior. While she was nervous, she was also angry. Once she stopped, she immediately swung her claw again.
Mo Tiange instantly retreated. She didn't plan to meet force with force.
She was a traditional cultivator who mainly cultivated magic. When fighting against martial cultivators, it was best not to let the opponent get close to her.
However, there were people everywhere in this side hall, so it was difficult for her to hide for a while. Thus, she simply stepped on the White Silk Handkerchief and fought closely with this female cultivator.
Mo Tiange also learned how to use the Qinggong of the secular world, which helped her a lot when she was in the Aura Refining stage. In addition, the White Silk Handkerchief was extremely nimble, so even though she was in close combat with this female cultivator, she was still able to move with ease and wasn't hit by her at all.
In the blink of an eye, their figures changed several times. Most of the Foundation Building female cultivators in the side hall couldn't even see their figures clearly, let alone the Aura Refining female cultivators. Their faces even turned pale from the spiritual aura pressure emitted by the two of them, completely at a loss as to what to do.
Mo Tiange seized a gap and threw the Shuttle of Flying Apsara to entangle the female cultivator. She shouted, "What are you standing there for?
Go and report to the Core Formation Grandmaster! "
Only then did the other female cultivators come to their senses and wanted to leave the hall in a hubbub.
The female cultivator she was fighting suddenly retreated after blocking the Shuttle of Flying Apsara. She smiled gloomily and said, "You want to call a Core Formation cultivator to deal with me?
Hmph!
I won't fight with you. Just wait and see! "After saying that, he quickly retreated. In a flash, he was out of the side hall's door.
Mo Tiange didn't immediately chase after them. Instead, she turned around and said, "All of you stay here. Don't go out."
The female Aura Refining disciples nodded repeatedly.
Since the two of them were fighting and the spiritual aura pressure was already astonishing, how could they dare to go out? They could only watch as Mo Tiange followed the female cultivator out of the side hall.
Mo Tiange noticed that the change in the female cultivator's attitude was caused by a whistling sound.
The sound was very short and wasn't heavy. Presumably, cultivators under the Foundation Building realm shouldn't have heard it. However, because of the Soul-Refining Art, Mo Tiange was very sensitive to spiritual aura fluctuations. Not only did she hear the sound, but she also sensed a peculiar spiritual aura pressure that was somewhat restrained.
Mo Tiange followed behind the female cultivator at a moderate distance. Sure enough, she saw that the female cultivator was heading towards the place where the spiritual aura pressure came from.
Mo Tiange was suspicious. This direction … was indeed the direction where the Nascent Soul cultivators were.
"Qin Jinghe!"
All of a sudden, she heard a loud shout. Mo Tiange's mind trembled and her blood and aura surged. She couldn't control herself and fell from the White Silk Handkerchief.
She suddenly looked up and saw a surging black cloud above the main hall where the Nascent Soul cultivators were located. A ferocious human head could be faintly seen on the black cloud.
The female cultivator Mo Tiange was chasing didn't feel this spiritual aura pressure at all. She turned around and smiled charmingly at Mo Tiange before disappearing in a flash.
Mo Tiange's expression changed. She didn't have time to study what kind of technique the female cultivator used to disappear because she felt this spiritual aura pressure … definitely belonged to a cultivator above the Nascent Soul realm!
After this loud shout, all the Nascent Soul cultivators in the main hall came out.
Xuanqing School now had a total of six Nascent Soul cultivators. In addition to the dozen or so Nascent Soul guests who came to congratulate them, there were more than twenty Nascent Soul cultivators in total.
Mo Tiange swept her gaze over them and felt relieved. With so many Nascent Soul cultivators, no matter how powerful the other party was, she would still be safe.
She also felt strange. Not to mention there were so many Nascent Soul cultivators here, this was Mount Taikang. Xuanqing School's Great Mountain-Protecting Formation wasn't just for show, yet this person actually had the guts to break in?
Moreover, judging from his momentum, he might even be a devil cultivator!
Mo Tiange really didn't know how her cheap master offended such a person.
When the Nascent Soul cultivators saw the black cloud, they either looked gloomy or puzzled.
"This is …"
"Master Song Feng!" someone whispered to himself.
The expressions of the puzzled Nascent Soul cultivators changed instantly.
The bald cultivator said in surprise, "Turns out he's still alive!"
Among this group of people, only Lord Daoist Zhenyang and Lord Daoist Jinghe looked calm.
At that moment, Lord Daoist Jinghe flew up and said heavily, "Song Feng!
Today is my disciple's Nascent Soul Ceremony. If you want to take revenge, do it another day! "
A sneer came from the black cloud, and the ferocious ghost face twisted a bit. "What? Qin Jinghe also has times where he shows weakness?
Your disciple's Nascent Soul Ceremony is really a good day. If my disciple was still alive, he'd probably be able to form his Nascent Soul now! "
Lord Daoist Jinghe also sneered. "Old Song Feng, I'm giving you face!
This is Xuanqing School's Mount Taikang, and there are so many Nascent Soul cultivators here. Even if you're a late stage Nascent Soul cultivator, you still have no chance of winning if we fight! "
Right after he finished speaking, a burst of strange laughter came from the black cloud. When the laughter stopped, the face on the cloud revealed a fierce expression. "Qin Jinghe, aren't you afraid of nothing?
Do you want to bring so many people to deal with me?! "
Lord Daoist Jinghe's expression was calm, but he wasn't irritated. "Do you think I, Qin Jinghe, am that kind of person who only has hands but no brains?
At our age, do you still want to fight for this little bit of face?
I admit I can't beat you, but since that's the case, why do I still want to throw away my life? "
"Good, good, good!" The black cloud laughed. "Qin Jinghe, I underestimated you!
But today, even if all of you are here, I still want to play! "
Once he said that, the momentum of the black cloud suddenly became stronger, and the early stage Nascent Soul cultivators below also felt suffocated.
At that moment, the spiritual aura inside Mo Tiange's body was surging, and she couldn't control it for a moment, causing her to vomit a mouthful of blood.
She looked around. She was at a corner, so no one could see her, so she immediately summoned the White Silk Handkerchief and hid the light of opening the Virtual Sky World by borrowing the spiritual aura turbulence of the magic weapon. Several breaths later, she entered the Virtual Sky World.
Once she entered the Virtual Sky World, she swallowed a Green Pendant Pill. After adjusting her breath for a while, she pointed at the space between her eyebrows, causing the bead to appear. She then cast an art on the bead, causing the sky of the Virtual Sky World to be torn open, allowing her to see the scene outside.
During this time, Lord Daoist Zhenyang had already stepped forward. He flew to Lord Daoist Jinghe's side and shouted, "Brother Song Feng!
If my junior martial brother has offended you in any way, please forgive him for the time being for my sake.
Today is the Soul-Formation Ceremony for our Xuanqing School's new Nascent Soul cultivators. If there's anything, let's talk about it another day, okay? "
The face on the black cloud opened its mouth and laughed, then its voice became a bit gentler. "Brother Zhenyang, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Your Dao is even more exquisite now!"
Lord Daoist Zhenyang also smiled and cupped his hands. "You're too polite. Brother Song Feng hasn't shown up for hundreds of years, so we old guys really miss you!"
"Really?
Then I'll pay you a visit another day! "
Upon hearing this, Lord Daoist Zhenyang thought Master Song Feng accepted his proposal, so he immediately said, "In that case, thank you for your kindness, Brother Song Feng."
"Don't thank me first!"
Master Song Feng snorted coldly and changed his tone. He said coldly, "Brother Daoist Zhenyang, let's leave tomorrow's matters to tomorrow. Today, I'm here for Qin Jinghe, so you don't need to pretend to be friends with me!"
Master Song Feng spoke rudely. He actually regarded Lord Daoist Zhenyang, a dignified late stage Nascent Soul cultivator, as a junior. Lord Daoist Zhenyang's smiling face suddenly turned purple.
He was a late stage Nascent Soul cultivator and the First Seat Grand Supreme Elder of the number two cultivation group in the Celestial Pole. When had anyone ever spoken to him like this?
He said with a cold expression, "Brother Song Feng, if you don't give me face, I can't do anything about it.
However, today is a good day for Xuanqing School, and Your Excellency came to look for my junior martial brother's fault. As his senior martial brother, I can't just stand by and watch.
If Your Excellency has something to say, just say it! "
The meaning of this sentence was obviously a threat. If Master Song Feng didn't take a step back, Lord Daoist Zhenyang and Lord Daoist Jinghe would besiege him together.
"Hahaha …" The black cloud laughed. "Xu Zhenyang, although you and I are both late stage Nascent Soul cultivators, I'll be honest. Your cultivation level isn't inferior to mine, but you're definitely inferior to me in a fight of magical powers. Do you admit defeat?"
Lord Daoist Zhenyang's expression didn't change. "People of Xuanqing School are never afraid to admit our shortcomings.
Although I'm slightly inferior to you in a fight of magical powers, it'll still be difficult for you to defeat me. If I join forces with Junior Martial Brother Jinghe … hehe! "Lord Daoist Zhenyang just smiled, but his gaze was cold.
The black cloud surged, and the face on it revealed a fierce expression, staring at the two people in front of it.
Upon hearing this, Mo Tiange understood this person's identity.
In the Celestial Pole, there were five late stage Nascent Soul cultivators: two from Tiandao Sect, one each from Xuanqing School and Gujian Sect, and one individual cultivator — Master Song Feng.
From a cultivator's point of view, this Master Song Feng was quite amazing.
It was said that a thousand years ago, he was only a cultivator from a small cultivation group. Later, that cultivation group was exterminated and he disappeared.
Several hundred years later, this person reappeared in the Celestial Pole and unexpectedly advanced into the Nascent Soul realm. Mo Tiange didn't know what kind of fated chances he encountered. In fact, he only had three spiritual roots, so it was already very good for him to be able to cultivate until the Core Formation realm, but who would've thought that he would later advance into the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm!
This person's knowledge was very diverse. His cultivation technique was close to the devil's art, and he was very good in fights of magical powers. Even Gujian Sect's sword cultivators who were good at fights of magical powers were defeated by him. Gujian Sect's late stage Nascent Soul cultivator, Venerable Swordsman Yuanying, once personally sought him out to reason things out, but he also didn't gain any advantage from him.
In this way, although there were five late stage Nascent Soul cultivators in the Celestial Pole, most people still thought Master Song Feng was the strongest cultivator in the Celestial Pole.
However, this person's temperament was somewhat similar to Lord Daoist Jinghe — they were both very aggressive and bloodthirsty.
Lord Daoist Jinghe, on the other hand, was a member of a Dao school, so he wouldn't kill the innocent and rarely took people's lives.
However, this Master Song Feng didn't seem like a high level cultivator at all. He actually regarded mental cultivation as nothing and was temperamental. Sometimes, he even killed mortals, which was very despicable. Therefore, not many people were willing to admit that he was the number one cultivator in the Celestial Pole.
However, Mo Tiange heard that this Master Song Feng hadn't appeared for a hundred years. With his lifespan of more than a thousand years, many people thought he had passed away and there were only four late stage Nascent Soul cultivators left in the Celestial Pole. She didn't expect him to appear at Xuanqing School today, and he even came to cause trouble for her master.
How did master offend this malefic star?
He mentioned his disciple just now. Could it be that master killed Master Song Feng's disciple?
As Mo Tiange was thinking, she heard Master Song Feng say, "Qin Jinghe, where's your precious disciple, Qin Shoujing?
It's such a good day, but he actually didn't come out? "
Lord Daoist Jinghe chuckled and said, "My disciple is now in the late stage of the Core Formation realm. He's in Closed Door Meditation and won't come out unless he forms his Nascent Soul."
"Nascent Soul …" The black cloud smiled gloomily. "This brat is really lucky. He reached the late stage of the Core Formation realm so quickly.
But with his aptitude, it won't be easy for him to form his Nascent Soul, right? "
Lord Daoist Jinghe smiled and said, "Old Song Feng, with your aptitude, you can form your Nascent Soul and even advance to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm. What can't my disciple do?"
"Me?" The face on the black cloud threw its head back and laughed. "Hahahaha! Qin Jinghe, you're comparing Qin Shoujing to me?
I don't want to say this, but you think too highly of him! "
Although the face on the black cloud was blurry, everyone could feel the contempt in his eyes.
In west Kunwu, if anyone mocked Qin Shoujing about his cultivation, they would most likely be regarded as jealousy. A cultivator with double spiritual roots was actually more talented than many cultivators with single or mutated spiritual roots — this was already enough to explain the problem.
But the one who said this was Master Song Feng, a late stage Nascent Soul cultivator, so no one would say anything about him. A late stage Nascent Soul cultivator naturally had the qualifications to look down on a mere Core Formation cultivator, even if that person was a rare genius who formed his Gold Core within a hundred years.
Lord Daoist Jinghe, who was originally as impatient as a child, was very calm today. He wasn't provoked in the slightest. Instead, he said with a smile, "Is that so?
I say, Old Song Feng, you think too highly of yourself. I don't want to say this, but aren't you a monster that's neither human nor devil nor monster?
It's fine if you show off in front of others, but you have to do it in front of me! Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?! "
His words were full of sarcasm, making Master Song Feng fly into a rage. "Qin Jinghe, you —"
"What about me?"
Lord Daoist Jinghe was still smiling, but Mo Tiange had been his disciple for a long time, so she keenly sensed the killing intent in his eyes. It seemed her master already wanted to make a move. "Alas! Look at you! You clearly know I know everything about you, but why did you still come here to make me laugh at you?"
Many Nascent Soul cultivators were baffled by what he said.
Did Lord Daoist Jinghe know some secret about Master Song Feng?
All of a sudden, the black cloud surged, and its spiritual aura pressure instantly pressed down.
Lord Daoist Zhenyang immediately took out an Eight Trigrams Disk. It was unknown what this disk was made of, but aside from the Eight Trigrams painted on it, it was completely brown. As soon as Lord Daoist Zhenyang took it out, it swelled up against the wind. When it was about the same size as the black cloud, the eyes of the Eight Trigrams shot out two rays of light, one black and one white, which interweaved into a net and firmly surrounded the hall. It was actually protecting cultivators with low cultivation levels from the oppression of the spiritual aura pressure.
"Hmph! Insignificant tricks! I'll fight you first!"
The black cloud also swelled up in an instant, almost rushing towards Lord Daoist Jinghe. Mo Tiange was inside the Virtual Sky World, so although she didn't feel it, she could tell from the reaction of Lord Daoist Jinghe's maids, Mingxia, and Wanqiu, that the spiritual aura fluctuation was very strong. Fortunately, there were many Nascent Soul cultivators present, so Lord Daoist Xuanyin waved his hand and added a protective cover to the two of them, stopping them from vomiting blood.
If she was outside the Virtual Sky World, Mo Tiange definitely wouldn't have such an opportunity to carefully observe the fight of magical powers between top Nascent Soul cultivators. Right now, she wasn't worried about her own safety or the safety of Lord Daoist Jinghe and Lord Daoist Zhenyang, so she focused on observing.
As soon as Master Song Feng made this move, Lord Daoist Jinghe and Lord Daoist Zhenyang each occupied a position.
Although these two old men had a fight not long ago, it could be seen that they had excellent tacit understanding in front of a formidable enemy. In a flash, they formed an encirclement.
Soon after, Lord Daoist Jinghe took out a gourd while Lord Daoist Zhenyang took out a small stone.
After the black cloud swelled up, Lord Daoist Jinghe's gourd immediately spurted out fire. Lord Daoist Zhenyang's stone was thrown out and instantly became bigger.
Mo Tiange wanted to take a closer look, but her realm was too low. How could she clearly see the body movements of middle and late stage Nascent Soul cultivators in a fight of magical powers?
She only saw flying sand and stones, bursts of fire, and surging black cloud, but she couldn't see what was going on.
Lord Daoist Jinghe had fire spiritual roots while Lord Daoist Zhenyang had earth spiritual roots. When the two of them joined forces to fight, they really lived up to the saying "covered in dust and dirt". Even though the fire was on the other party, they still sprinkled dirt on the other party.
Fortunately, Master Song Feng was now a black cloud, so he wasn't afraid of dirt at all. Otherwise, he'd probably be in a very difficult situation like the day they finished their fight.
After a while, the fight between the three of them finally stopped. Mo Tiange finally saw that Lord Daoist Jinghe and Lord Daoist Zhenyang couldn't defeat Master Song Feng even though they joined hands.
However, judging from the closed eyes of the face on the black cloud, he probably wasn't feeling well either.
The three of them separated. Lord Daoist Jinghe and Lord Daoist Zhenyang sat cross-legged, while the black cloud closed its eyes and rested.
The other Nascent Soul cultivators from Xuanqing School could see that Master Song Feng couldn't do anything to Lord Daoist Jinghe and Lord Daoist Zhenyang, so they didn't make a move.
After a long time, the black cloud opened its eyes first, and its voice came from inside. "Qin Jinghe, tell that brat of yours that I'll take revenge for killing my disciple sooner or later!
He'd better stay in the sect until I pass away, or else I'll definitely take his life! "
The black cloud easily broke through the light net laid by Lord Daoist Zhenyang's Eight Trigrams Disc and suddenly left.
Mo Tiange heaved a sigh of relief in the Virtual Sky World.
Since Master Song Feng dared to come here so boldly, he probably knew no one could stop him, right?
That was reasonable. Nascent Soul cultivators were hard to kill, let alone a late stage Nascent Soul cultivator with many secret techniques and treasures.
Judging from these Nascent Soul seniors' indifferent reactions, they probably didn't intend to stop him at all.
However, she didn't know what Master Song Feng meant when he said he killed his disciple. Could it be that it was Qin Shoujing who killed his disciple?
After thinking it over, Mo Tiange once again thought about the female cultivator who fought with her in the beginning. If she didn't have the magic weapon Zhong Muling gave her, she definitely wouldn't have been able to fight that female cultivator so easily. That woman sneaked into Xuanqing School and disappeared when Master Song Feng appeared. Could it be that she was also Master Song Feng's disciple or grand-disciple?
No matter how she thought about it, she still couldn't figure it out. She shook her head and threw these thoughts to the back of her mind.
This matter had nothing to do with her. Right now, she should think about how to get out without anyone noticing.
