Destiny is ashes

Chapter 563: Killing Sword Technique

The sun in the Tianyuan Realm is always almost non-existent. Hazy gray spots of light flicker barely in the gaps between thick dark clouds. The fading light is like a sigh, brushing across all things between heaven and earth.

In the dim shadows left over from the night, a steel town that exhaled hot air was like the sun on the earth, releasing brilliant light and heat. Surging spiritual energy followed the cracks in the rift valley and rose and rolled in all directions.

The red warning light and the blue light guiding the aircraft and airships intertwined, blending into a gorgeous light purple. This light flowed over the city like a river, reflecting the clouds above the city with interlaced purple clouds.

And on the east side of this steel city located on the cantilever of the rift valley, on the top of a large warehouse store, a tall and thin young man was staring at the purple artificial glow.

“When can I really see the sunset?”

The young man looked delicate and gentle, with short hair that was neatly styled. He was very tall, and if you looked closely, you would find that he was not thin, but had a hidden toughness.

Just like his current character, his past weakness and hesitation were swept away by determination, and courage and perseverance filled his bones, making him strong and healthy, and his mind agile.

Today's young people can surprise their past acquaintances in terms of both strength and intelligence, and this is the true meaning of rebirth.

Huo Qing looked up. The morning light was still dim. He looked at the clouds slowly drifting across the sky and remembered his name. The day he was born was a rare clear and sunny day in Fuchenyuan. The dark clouds in the sky turned white, and the sunset glow was golden and purple. One could even see the clear sky behind the clouds and mountains, hence his name.

And he was now eighteen years old, an adult in every sense of the word. He lowered his eyes and looked at the streets of Chonggang Town surrounding the warehouse. He saw beams of light lighting up from all directions of the city, shining towards the sky, towards the ancient ruins in the cracks, and causing the rosy glow on top of the city's cloud dome to flow along with it.

Huo Qing's eyes followed the changing rays of light and he inexplicably felt that it was like a ray of sword light.

Behind him, An Jing was practicing sword.

The young man's steps were orderly, and the long sword danced around his body. The sword light was like water and also like the glow of the clouds. A bright light illuminated the top floor of the warehouse. The dazzling sword light turned into a silver and snow-like streak around the young man's body, carrying a sinister sword intent.

This sword intent is like a steep and lonely mountain, covered with ice and snow, piercing the top of the clouds. No matter how bright the sunlight is shining on it, it will only reflect such a cold sword light, without any emotion, only a purely cold sword.

But as An Jing's moves changed, the sky light suddenly flashed, and the snow-covered mountain suddenly burned violently. The sunlight was still there, but it turned into a sunset. The scarlet blood-red sword intent was also extremely cold, but it flowed like a river of flames, just like a silent snow peak shaking and collapsing under the sunset, turning into an avalanche like a raging fire.

In the face of an avalanche, in the face of flames, in the face of a sword, all words are pale and all arguments are powerless.

It was a natural disaster of fire and water, the most ruthless judgment and disaster.

Killing

After practicing a set of sword techniques, An Jing did not sheath the sword.

'Killing' is neither iron nor steel, neither solid nor material. It is made by condensing the evil spirit with his supernatural power and born from the soul. It is his natal magic weapon. With a turn in his hand, it merges into his arm.

And this set of killing sword skills was not taught by anyone, not even Fu Xie, but a set of Qibing sword skills that he created through his own experience and exploration. It can perfectly utilize the characteristics of Qibing's gathering and dispersion invisibly, and can change moves and disappear at any time, switching the offensive and defensive momentum, making it impossible to defend against.

In addition, it can make better use of the 'Sword Qi for Injury and Illness', converting all the accumulated injury, disease and poison into 'Sword Qi for Life', just like an avalanche, carrying the enemy's attack power to attack and kill the enemy.

"very nice."

Fu Xie praised: "The 'killing sword energy' transformed by your sword technique is extremely harmful to life with flesh and blood. Moreover, the sword energy is complex and subtle, carrying the energy of injury and illness, entangled in the enemy's body, which can suppress their regenerative ability and make it extremely difficult for them to heal themselves!"

"Accumulate strength to counterattack, use the enemy's strength to counterattack, and the deadly force erosion is extremely difficult to heal... Triple divine power, this sword technique has a bright future. Even now, it can be regarded as the true secret book of [Martial Vein Peak]!"

"so amazing!"

Huo Qing on the side also clapped his hands and praised: "What a great swordsmanship. I dare say that even Principal He did not have such skills as you when he was young. You will definitely pass the martial arts test for admission to No. 3 Middle School." An Jing was not modest either. He straightened his collar and said, "I have never worried about the martial arts test. If I can't pass it, no one in Xuan Ye City can pass it."

After saying the most arrogant words, An Jing changed the subject and became worried: "It's mainly the written test. I haven't taken the test in Xuanye City yet, so I really don't know what the specific situation is."

Huo Qing sighed, "I don't know either. Their papers are closed and not circulated. You can't buy old papers on the market. And some of the papers I did at the time were too simple and not up to par at all."

Having said that, he still had full confidence in An Jing: "The 'sect' behind you has mastered the ancient heritage. Even if you don't study systematically and miss some points on some off-topic questions, you must have a foundation."

"But I can definitely pass tomorrow's written test."

"Thank you for your good words."

An Jing, on the other hand, was a little unsure. He had never taken any exams in his past and present lives. Although he had read a lot of books, he mostly used them to verify his knowledge with practice.

"rest assured."

Huo Qing could also see this. People who take exams frequently and those who don't take exams very often have completely different ways of thinking. He smiled and said, "Principal He thinks highly of you. Even if you have some shortcomings, he will definitely make some secret arrangements to help you pass the exam."

"That depends on Principal He having the final say at No. 3 Middle School."

An Jing shook his head slightly. He looked towards the direction of Xuan Ye City, where the lights were shining like the Milky Way. "If only things were that simple."

Several months have passed since An Jing left Dachen with the help of Canglinzu's magical power and came to the Chenli Wasteland.

During these months, An Jing stayed in the Tianyuan Realm for more than three months.

It’s not that An Jing was unwilling to return to Mingjing Sect earlier, but that there was no news from Grandmaster Chen Yinzi. He didn’t know how the purge in Mingjing Sect was going, how many traitors and spies had been caught, and whether the environment in the sect had been successfully cleansed.

Of course, this cannot be easily returned, or even exposed.

In that case, I'll just travel slowly in the Huaixu Realm and spend most of my time studying in the Tianyuan Realm.

However, in general, the situation in Huaixu Realm is still stable and improving.

The frost disaster ended, and the climate in Chenli returned to normal. The muddy plains turned into lush grasslands in just a dozen days, and the originally dead mountains and forests all came back to life.

In such an environment, many spiritual beasts and ferocious beasts reappeared. An Jing had no shortage of prey to satisfy his hunger. He could even communicate with Canglinzu through the resonance of his fate and learn about the situation in Fuxie City.

On the original site of Linjiang City, the construction of Fuxie City is in full swing. Xu Tai, who has advanced to the martial arts realm, has done a great job as the city lord. After Bai Qinghan and Cang Linzu left, he coordinated the forces of all parties with his own strength and used the resources and funds that had already been saved to build the first batch of residential areas at the fastest speed.

Even if there are some fools who are not very smart and want to provoke Xu Tai, the new martial vein, it is not a big problem, because behind Xu Tai, there is the new Shenzang General of Tianjian Mountain Range, Rong Yucui.

This demon king who achieved the status of a true person and shed his human body firmly supported all the actions of Fuxie City and Xu Tai.

The other great demon spirit, one of the former masters of the Broken Blade Mountains and now the first master of the Tianjian Mountains, the Six-fanged White Pig Pan Xueya, is also the most steadfast backer of Fuxie City.

With these two demon spirits and demon kings who are familiar with the local situation and have a relationship with An Jing, even a comradeship, Fuxie City can be said to be indestructible.
