Destiny is ashes

Chapter 710 Guidance
"Brother An, please give me some advice."

On the martial arts stage, Miao Yunying did not hesitate at all. After briefly greeting each other, he took out his magic weapon, a bronze seven-star sword with a rather strange shape, and prepared to launch an attack.

However, after noticing that An Jing did not take out his weapon, nor did he "condense his Qi into a weapon" as he had done in the past, Miao Yunying stopped and asked in confusion, "Why not use a weapon?"

"what?"

An Jing was stunned for a moment, then blinked: "Didn't we say we were going to spar? We have to use weapons?"

As if he realized that the meaning of this sentence was a little subtle, he hurriedly added: "Swords have no eyes, I was afraid of hurting Brother Miu."

"……Thanks."

Miao Yunying was speechless, although he actually knew that even if An Jing didn't use weapons, his physical training was not something that ordinary magic weapons could challenge, so he would still lose.

——Forget it, it’s better not to use weapons. More sparring sessions will help me make more progress.

Thinking so, after saying "Then I'm going to attack", Miao Yunying launched an attack on An Jing.

This bronze seven-star sword has inscriptions of water and fire on it, and it exudes the fragrance of elixir. When it is swung out, hot mist lingers around the body, forming a layer of 'Qingyun Dan Barrier' defense. Then, the unique 'Ningguang Qingqi' of Shihui Peak surges out, pressing towards An Jing like a wave of sword energy.

The entire Mingjing Peak is a "magic and martial arts sect" that tends to be mysterious, and Miao Yunying is no exception. In addition to the sword energy, starlight flashes on his sword, and then a series of water and fire magics collide and turn into raindrops that fall towards An Jing.

Sword energy, defense, water and fire magic, plus Miao Yunying himself also possessed a magic weapon, waiting for an opportunity to move behind the back. In this moment, he was distracted by five things, and had an attacking mentality that was both offensive and defensive. The whole process from deployment to successful construction took less than half a breath.

This one move alone was enough to prove how solid Miao Yunying's foundation was and how rich her combat experience was - in the martial arts realm, this was enough to be called flawless!

The essence of alchemy is self-cultivation. Not only does one need to cultivate both inside and outside, but one must also have strong control over spiritual evil. It is really wrong to think that alchemists are not good at fighting. At most, they are just easy to be ambushed.

"sharp."

Seeing this, An Jing also praised. He took a step forward and took the initiative to face Miao Yunying's sword energy and magic.

Instead of using the power of Taibai Haoling's Divine Restraint to resist, An Jing raised his hands, and with his left fist and right palm, he saw through all the flaws in Miao Yunying's sword energy and magic like a butcher cutting up an ox, and broke all these attacks with the least amount of force.

Not only that, lines of invisible energy emanated from his spine, and the newly-acquired Hundred Refinements Qi was as dexterous as a hand, deflecting those attacks that could not be resolved in a short time, and breaking down those relatively fragile spells into spiritual evil.

"Brother Miao, your fighting method may seem complicated, but in fact it has reached the state of returning to the basics. This sky-high magic and sword energy may seem to win by sheer quantity, but in fact it is using the shapes of water and fire as the yin and yang dragon and tiger, with the sword energy as the dividing line. You want to shroud the enemy in your 'Water and Fire Tai Chi Dragon and Tiger Sword Formation' and refine it into a pill."

While cracking the code, An Jing also explained and gave some pointers: "You are probably born with amazing calculation ability. Even if the general martial veins focus on the spirit, it is impossible for them to control it as finely as you do. You can manipulate so many spells into sword formations... But this fighting method has a weakness."

At this moment, after only two breaths, Miao Yunying was already sweating profusely. An Jing not only broke his sword energy magic, but also stepped on his sword formation with every step, forcing him to constantly change the sword formation and perform other different magic and sword energy to remedy the situation. For a moment, even with his five-pointed attention, the computing power that could throw out dozens of magic in an instant was on the verge of exhaustion.

And the moment he heard the word "weakness", his mind was shaken and he was uncontrollably distracted for a moment - and this revealed a flaw.

"Complex things, with too many changes, are not strong enough after all. If the enemy can force you to keep changing, you will inevitably reveal your flaws..."

How could An Jing not see this flaw? He raised his finger, and the Five Weapons True Thunder condensed. A golden lightning instantly broke through Miao Yunying's Dan Barrier defense, striking him so hard that his body swayed and he was about to fall down.

As he fell, Miao Yunying's Water and Fire Tai Chi Sword Formation collapsed. "That would give someone the opportunity to counterattack."

An Jing withdrew his hand and calmly reviewed the situation: "If Brother Miao encounters an opponent like me, remember not to deploy the sword formation at the beginning, because for me, if I see the moment the sword formation is deployed, all its good and bad fortune, life and death will be seen through."

"You must use all kinds of sword techniques and sword skills to force me to engage in high-speed close combat with you, deploy the sword formation bit by bit, and then increase the distance in one breath and refine me with the sword formation."

"what……"

Miao Yunying's body swayed slightly, and he seemed to be about to fall, but he still managed to stand up. His eyes were a little dazed, but he soon regained his determination: "I... I'm learning from you!"

Although it seemed that he was defeated instantly by An Jing's move, both An Jing and he knew very well that what they had just engaged in an extremely dangerous and fierce battle. Miao Yunying admitted that he had indeed underestimated An Jing, so the opponent saw through his tactics from the very beginning, and was easily defeated by him.

But this time it’s different!

The bronze Seven-Star Sword vibrated, and seven Qi pills condensed at the positions of the seven stars. In an instant, Miao Yunying's figure split like a cloud shadow, and in an instant it was divided into two, two into four, and finally into twenty-eight different phantoms. Each phantom urged completely different martial arts and techniques, and bombarded towards An Jing!

But Miao Yunying's real body was not among these Yunying clones at all. He had quietly come to the edge of the stage and raised the Seven Star Sword. Seven rays of light flashed one after another, representing Yin Water and Yang Fire, Yang Water and Yin Fire, pure water and pure fire, as well as a perfectly balanced shape of water and fire.

The original destiny [Dragon and Tiger in Harmony] and the current destiny [Yin and Yang in Harmony], in essence, refer to one thing, that is, the balance between movement and stillness, the equilibrium of all things, which is also the "Dan".

As a natural descendant of Danfeng, the first thing Miao Yunying learned before practicing martial arts was to refine the elixir, and his martial arts was to refine the elixir like refining himself and reflect himself like a mirror.

The mirror is a still object! Its state is like water. If it does not reflect anything, it will not move. This is the Yin of Qi!

Human beings are animals! The heart beats like fire, and when you think, you will act accordingly, which is the Yang of Qi!

With the Water and Fire Seven-Star Sword as the core, Miao Yunying will activate his own destiny supernatural power, blend his own power with the power of the mirror pill in his heart, and transform the water and fire sword energy into a ray of 'Yin Yang Dawn Sword Light'!
"Water, fire, dragon and tiger, yin and yang in harmony..."

Everything happened in an instant. An Jing was not fooled by the illusion of Miao Yunying's clone at all. He directly saw the other party's true body - but for ordinary martial arts, Miao Yunying's clone posed a fatal threat to them.

Facing Miao Yunying's charged sword moves, An Jing even felt a hint of threat. The Yin-Yang method was a field he had not yet touched upon, and it was difficult to crack it as easily as the Five Elements and Five Spirits.

If a real battle comes, An Jing will let Miao Yunying display it, experience it personally, and then put it to good use for himself.

But now that we are sparring, it is better not to let him use it. If he does so, he will be hurt by squeezing out his own strength.

So, An Jing got serious and his figure disappeared, and the area of ​​the martial arts arena where he was originally located suddenly collapsed, and dust rose into the sky.

The next moment, An Jing came to Miao Yunying's real body, and under the gaze of the other party's suddenly widened eyes, he pressed his palm on the other party's head.

"Go to sleep."

As if it was a command, Miao Yunying immediately fell into a baby-like sleep.
