Although he wasn't yet a Paragon, Lan Jue's ability to use protogenia wasn't as monotonous as it had been in the past. In fact, it was much more flexible.
Aside from the fact that he couldn't use his Domain, Lan Jue could say he'd mastered some of the mysteries of protogenia.
Zhou Qianlin's progress wasn't particularly rapid, but it was steady. It kept pace with Lan Jue's progress.
When the two of them practiced swordsmanship together, Zhou Qianlin's progress was surprisingly quick. She wasn't affected by her own state of mind, and in some ways surpassed Lan Jue.
According to Xuanyuan Shishi, this was because Zhou Qianlin's Queen of Heaven Discipline was the purest of Disciplines, and closest to the immortals of ancient times. It was why her understanding of ancient swordsmanship was the quickest. After all, it was unfortunate for her to try to learn in her current state, but Xuanyuan Shishi had imprinted the memories into her mind. With practice, she became more and more proficient. For Zhou Qianlin, understanding was a gradual, natural process.
Lan Qing didn't stop until they were far enough from An Lun.
The Bloodiron Khans and Star Division were only able to see the holographic images from distant satellites.
Meanwhile, the Western Alliance and Northern Alliance watched from afar as the skies around An Lun became a haze of white. Nothing could be seen.
The interference was so strong that it rendered their long-range surveillance useless.
The Northern Alliance and Western Alliance were used to it. This sort of interference was a regular occurrence, and they assumed that An Lun was conducting some sort of military experiment.
That was why.
However, the interference didn't last long, because it took a lot of energy to do so.
Lan Qing looked at Lan Jue and Zhou Qianlin from afar and sighed. "Is she better?" He knew Lan Jue's character too well. Lan Jue was smart and talented.
However, there was a very obvious shortcoming, and that was that they were easily swayed by their emotions. Once they were emotional, they would easily become hot-headed. This was also the reason why Lan Jue had remained silent for three years.
Lan Jue didn't know that Lan Qing, in order to maintain his advantage in strength, had to go all out.
In private, he had paid a much higher price than he did to achieve what he had today.
It was because in terms of talent, he admitted that he was not as good as Lan Jue, which was why he was like this.
Seeing that her brother finally had a lover again, and that he was standing side by side with her.
At this moment, the fighting spirit in Lan Qing's heart suddenly decreased by a lot.
Was strength really that important?
Perhaps, being with the one he loved was the best thing that could happen to him.
Lan Jue had been watching his brother closely. He was the first to notice the change in Lan Qing's mood.
Seeing the disappointment in his brother's eyes, he couldn't help but pause. "Better. At least it's going in a good direction.
Qian Lin's Discipline is the Queen of Heaven.
She has incredible self-healing abilities. She'll recover, definitely! "
Definitely! "He strongly believed in this.
Lan Qing smirked. "I wish her a speedy recovery.
Don't put too much pressure on yourself.
Between the two of us, it's enough for one of us to bear more pressure. "
Lan Jue's heart skipped a beat. It was the first time he'd heard his brother say something like this. "Boss, what's wrong?
Don't tell me you're not confident you can beat us? "
Lan Qing's mouth twitched. It was a very human emotion that came to his face.
Even Lan Jue couldn't help but stare blankly.
Ever since becoming a Paragon, everything about Lan Qing had changed.
If it could be said that he had always been a taut string, then the current him seemed to be a lot more relaxed.
It was something Lan Jue would love to see.
"Come, let me see how far you've been able to go recently. Even Dad is praising your abilities."
Lan Qing's voice was indifferent. The expression on his face was gone, and he was back to his old self, Prometheus, the God of Wisdom.
Lan Jue smiled. He was more used to Lan Qing in this form.
He held Zhou Qianlin's hand in his. A soft blue light burst forth from within him, and his eyes turned to gold.
Beneath the gold and blue light, he looked like he was in high spirits.
Zhou Qianlin's body was also enveloped in a hazy white light. Specks of silver shimmered within.
Although she could only fight on instinct, she was connected to Lan Jue's mind. With Lan Jue's guidance, she was able to fight to a certain extent.
Lan Qing's eyes lit up as well, but there was no color to them. His entire being was shrouded in a lustrous light. It was like he was one with the universe, one with the void, one with everything around him.
Lan Jue suddenly felt like he and Zhou Qianlin were fighting against the universe itself. It wasn't a pleasant feeling. The pressure came from all directions. It wasn't strong, but it was undeniable.
It was like everything he had was under the control of the stars.
He didn't dare hold back against his Paragon brother. His eyes blazed with golden light, and he took a step forward. A terrifying aura erupted from his body, and a blinding golden light bloomed from behind him. It was as if it wanted to split the heavens, to rule the world. It was an incomparably domineering aura. It was like he was the only one in the world, the only one in the world.
But Lan Jue didn't use the Spirit of Speech he'd used before. The golden light swirled around him, and suddenly the golden light dispersed. It dissolved into specks of starlight that filled the space around him. But in the process, the pressure from Lan Qing seemed to dissipate as well.
A clear dragon's roar filled the air, and then a beam of red light rose from behind him. As soon as it appeared, the space around him seemed to twist and warp.
Lan Qing's eyes flickered. The soldiers watching the holographic projection, as long as they were paying attention, could see Lan Qing's hair flutter in the wind. It was as if something was tugging at it.
The red light shook the heavens, and in the blink of an eye it had transformed into a giant sword a hundred meters long. It fell from the heavens and slashed down at Lan Qing.
Space itself began to distort violently. Pieces of it began to collapse, and it began to swallow up everything around it.
It was as if space itself was being suppressed, devoured, and destroyed by the terrifying power of the sword!
It became a giant abyss that swallowed Lan Qing whole.
That was no longer a sword, but a terrifying hell that wanted to destroy and devour him completely.
Lan Qing nodded slightly, as if acknowledging Lan Jue's sword. He floated in the air without moving, but his eyes suddenly sharpened. He clapped his hands gently in the air, and a strange scene appeared. Lan Qing seemed to have merged with the distorted space. No matter how much the devouring power tried, he seemed to be a part of the distorted space, and he remained motionless.
The red light flashed, and Lan Qing became illusory before solidifying again. It was as if nothing had happened.
At this moment, a beam of blue light followed closely behind the red light and shot up into the sky. That beam of blue light was like a dazzling comet that flew towards Lan Qing. Then, it suddenly bloomed like a giant blue flower, turning into countless beams of blue light that enveloped Lan Qing.
Specks of sword light shot out and covered everything, giving off an astonishing sense of beauty.
If the red light was a visitor from hell, then the blue light was like an immortal guiding the way. Not only was it traceless, but it was also ever-changing. Its beauty was so moving that it could suck in one's soul.
The interweaving of red and blue finally caused Lan Qing to lose his composure. His hands drew half a circle on both sides of his body, and then he placed them in front of his chest.
Suddenly, a golden halo bloomed from the back of his head.
His whole body seemed to have become towering, and an indescribable heat burned everything around him, even his soul.
Regardless of whether it was blue or red, everything disappeared without a trace in the brilliant golden light and the devout Sanskrit chants.
Immovable as a mountain!
At this moment, Lan Qing was no longer the God of Wisdom. Instead, he had transformed into a Buddha. Everything in front of him could only worship him.
The gentle golden halo was constantly refracted and reflected in the universe.
In the void, beams of light flickered, and everything in the area seemed to have turned into a golden color. The deep Sanskrit chants became loud and clear. Lan Jue only felt that his heart was at peace, and he actually had a feeling that he couldn't do anything. Domain.
Was this Lan Qing's domain?
It wasn't as powerful as Jueti's Buddhist Kingdom, but his domain was filled with the taste of the past, present, and future.
Vairocana sat in the center, and all the sky, earth, and stars surrounded him, worshiping him.
It made one feel as if they couldn't struggle.
"Prajna Prajna Mitta!"
The deep Sanskrit chants sounded. The loud and clear voice didn't sound loud at first, but it soon resounded in Lan Jue's soul.
The Celestial Trapping Sword in his hand trembled slightly, and he actually had a feeling of kneeling down.
Prajna Prajna Mitta was one of the most powerful Buddhist mantras. Although Lan Qing didn't use any other offensive means, just this verse of the chant was quickly disintegrating Lan Jue's spiritual defenses.
If it was before he absorbed the thunder essence, just this one verse would have made Lan Jue lose the ability to fight.
But at this moment, a clear spirit qi rose in his body, and he quickly regained consciousness.
The Celestial Trapping Sword in his hand turned into an arc, and a huge arc enveloped him and Zhou Qianlin at the same time. Then, it turned into a blue light and fled into the distance.
Wherever the blue light passed, the golden color quietly dissipated. The strong sense of annihilation made Lan Qing's Tathagata Domain feel like it was shaken.
