Chapter 510 Another Flying Knife
With a sword in hand, he moved as swiftly as a dragon.

Chu Qing's figure suddenly spun in mid-air, and a continuous stream of sword light fell like rain and blew like the wind, endless and limitless.

The Ghost Emperor, like a phantom, moved in countless instants, weaving through the blade's edge before finally penetrating deep into the heart of the territory. Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed Chu Qing's wrist.

Chu Qing's inner energy surged, and he flicked away the Ghost Emperor's five fingers. In the next instant, Chu Qing moved with the speed of the wind, and his figure multiplied.

Countless figures simultaneously struck the ground.

"drink!!!"

Purple flames rose around the Ghost Emperor. He pressed down with one palm to stabilize his inner energy, and with the other palm raised, he unleashed countless palm shadows.

All I could hear was bang, bang, bang.

The continuous explosions shook the surrounding area, and strong gusts of wind spread in all directions.

The two fought with lightning speed, their battle taking place in mid-air. However, the aftershocks caused deep craters to form in the ground, and cracks extended in all directions, revealing huge fissures in the earth.

Exclamations rose and fell as numerous experts from the Southern Underground Region leaped to their feet to avoid the scene that resembled a natural disaster.

Although they didn't know exactly what was going on...

How could the Ghost Emperor be resurrected when Chu Qing had already killed him with a single strike?
However, this is not the time to dwell on such things.

Just now, the Ghost Emperor sent Chu Qing flying hundreds of feet away with a single palm strike. They are now quite far from the core of their battle, but the tremors of the gale are actually worse than before.

After the Ghost Emperor's death, the power of his [Ghost God Path] became even stronger.

At this moment, Chu Qing was also fully activating the [Illuminating Jade Divine Strategy], and both sides had unleashed their strongest forces!

Suddenly, Chu Qing's figure solidified into one, and he reached out to grab the Ghost Emperor's throat.

The Ghost Emperor tried to block Chu Qing's capture with both hands, but Chu Qing's moves changed in succession, using the following techniques: "Catching the Wind", "Catching the Shadow", "Playing the Qin", "Playing the Se", "Criticizing the Neck", "Pounding the Void", "Embracing the Remnant", and "Guarding the Deficiency".

The eight moves are linked together, with dense and continuous techniques.

With Chu Qing's current martial arts skills and knowledge, the power of this Dragon Claw Hand technique is far greater than it was back then.

Even so, it took eight consecutive moves to completely overwhelm the Ghost Emperor, who then reached into his central palace with one hand and grabbed his throat.

As the [Illuminating Jade Divine Strategy] was activated, the Three Elements Light Wheel appeared behind him. With a sudden movement of the wind and clouds, and propelled by a powerful force, Chu Qing forced the Ghost Emperor into the ground from mid-air.

Boom boom boom! ! ! !

The intense tremor created a sky full of smoke and clouds, but in the blink of an eye, the clouds moved in a line, and Chu Qing pressed the Ghost Emperor forward, leaving an extremely deep chasm on the ground.

Wherever it passed, whether it was the ground, ancient tombs, or hills and boulders, everything crumbled and vanished without a trace.

This journey covered at least two hundred feet. Even the Ghost Emperor couldn't help but tremble violently, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

At first, he tried to contend with Chu Qing's strength, but later he simply gave up.

He immediately formed hand seals and unleashed the [Great Samsara Hand Seal]!
Before the Ghost Emperor created the [Ghost God Path], the Ghost Emperor Palace lineage only had three ultimate techniques: the Six Paths, Life and Death, and Reincarnation.

Among them, the martial arts that involve life and death are the most unpredictable in the eyes of the world.

One can determine life or death with a single thought.

However, such tactics are often a trick used by those in higher positions to bully those in lower positions.

Those with deeper internal strength and more ruthless methods can bully those whose internal strength is far inferior to theirs. Even just using a sound vibration can kill a person.

Although the Ghost Emperor Palace's ultimate techniques are not that simple, they are fine for dealing with ordinary people... but using them to deal with Chu Qing is wishful thinking.

Just as Chu Qing had never used any methods like the Ten Thousand Mile Ice Field to deal with the Ghost Emperor.

Those kinds of trivial skills are not meant to be used when fighting against unparalleled masters.

The Ghost Emperor chose the [Great Handprint of Reincarnation] of the Reincarnation Path at this moment because his [Path of Ghosts and Gods] had reached its zenith. Among all his skills, the [Path of Reincarnation] and the [Path of Ghosts and Gods] were the most compatible and powerful.

Therefore, as his internal energy circulated, he struck Chu Qing's chest and abdomen with one strike after another.

Chu Qing was surrounded by golden light, and he chose to directly use his Undying Golden Body to withstand the attack.

In an instant, golden light and purple flames filled the air, and his body moved like a shooting star.

With a deafening explosion, the two figures separated instantly. Chu Qing, being above, retreated into the air, while the Ghost Emperor, using the earth as support, suddenly sprang up, his fingers moving like the wind, his palms joining the Six Paths, which was none other than [Six Paths of Sorrow]!
Chu Qing's Shark-Slaying Blade changed continuously, countering each move with his finger shadow and palm print.

Two figures flew from the ground into the air in one breath... Then, the figures flashed and disappeared from their original spot, only to reappear more than ten feet away.

Each time it appears, there is a violent roar.

By this time, the surrounding area had been utterly destroyed, with the ground shattered and everything collapsing.

Liu Zhaonian and the others felt that there was nowhere to stand in all directions. They finally found a huge rock to stabilize themselves. When they looked at the scene in mid-air, they all grimaced in pain.

"How could the Ghost Emperor be resurrected?"

"Could he really be connected to ghosts and spirits?"

"The Alliance Leader's fighting strength remains undiminished, and the Ghost Emperor is invincible. Who will win this battle?"

"It's a shame they fought in mid-air, otherwise I would have definitely gone to help!"

"Help my ass! With your cultivation level, you'd be blown to pieces by their fighting winds before you could even do anything."

The sounds of the crowd's discussions filled her ears, and Wu Qianhuan couldn't help but feel anxious.

She clenched her fists tightly. She thought that by cultivating the Heavenly Bright Sword Technique with Chu Qing and by practicing the Pointing Moon Profound Skill every night, her cultivation had progressed by leaps and bounds, and she could already be considered a master of the world.

Even in today's battle between good and evil against the Heavenly Evil Cult, they have repeatedly defeated powerful enemies.

But now it seems that Chu Qing's level is beyond her imagination. At this moment, she doesn't even have the right to step forward and help.

In their anxiety, they couldn't help but feel somewhat dejected.

Finally, after much painful reflection:

"He's still not working hard enough! After this match, I'm going to make him train every night!"

Of course, this is a victory.

If we lose... then we'll go with him.

In any case, the Ghost Emperor would never let anyone go.

Wenrou took out her small stool, sat there fiddling with the rice cereal, looked up at the sky with a silent expression, as if she had returned to the time before she cultivated the [Unchanging Heavenly Book].

Tianfengzi frowned deeply:
"Is there anyone who can clearly see the outcome of this battle?"

Liu Zhaonian gave a bitter smile:
"The gap is too large; one cannot discuss ice with a summer insect, so how can it possibly understand the changes?"

This sentence plunged people into despair once again.

Meanwhile, Chu Qing and the Ghost Emperor, who were locked in combat, were not idle either. Both of them unleashed attacks with the force to shatter mountains, using every means to attack each other while talking.

The Ghost Emperor spoke coldly:

"It is incredible that someone so young has reached such a level of martial arts skill."

"But you are still young, how deep can your internal strength be?"
"I can fight you for a whole day and night, can you?"

Chu Qing laughed heartily, unleashing the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms into a spectacle of ten thousand dragons galloping across the sky, his palm strikes flying continuously.

But he said:
"My [Illuminating Jade Divine Strategy] has a continuous and inexhaustible internal energy, and I become stronger and more energetic the more I fight!"
"You're old, frail, and have weak kidneys; you can only fight for a day and a night. I, on the other hand, can fight you for a year without sleep or rest!!"

"Bullshit, if you fight for a year, the Heavenly Evil Cult will come over." "Then we'll just kill you and them all together."

"This brat is outrageous!!!"

"You old thief, prepare to die!!!"

At the beginning, he was somewhat considerate in his words, but later it became pure trash talk.

This is considered an underhanded tactic... In the martial arts world, when people fight to the death, it's not simply about martial arts skills; intrigue, schemes, and verbal maneuvering are everywhere.

If simply cursing someone can shatter their mentality, reducing them to only one-tenth of their martial arts skills, then that can be considered a success.

However, swearing is the lowest form of underhanded tactic.

Unfortunately, both of them were focused on fighting, and they were only able to speak because their martial arts skills were too high.

That's why they can spare a moment to speak amidst their busy schedules... but to expect them to come up with some ingenious schemes during this process would be asking too much.

Neither of them were mediocre, and neither dared to underestimate the other.

However, as the fight progressed, Chu Qing's muscles and bones were burning hot, and the Ghost Emperor's heart was pounding wildly.

Although he called Chu Qing a "youngster," he was actually quite horrified by Chu Qing's martial arts skills.

After all, Chu Qing was too young, only nineteen years old.

If it were me at nineteen, I wouldn't even be worthy of carrying Chu Qing's shoes, let alone being able to compare to him now.

With just a glance, the nineteen-year-old him would have been killed by Chu Qing.

What's even more crucial is that he felt Chu Qing's words weren't just empty talk... This kid's [Illuminating Jade Divine Strategy] contains countless techniques, and the power of each move is palpable.

Moreover, as his internal energy shifted, from the beginning to the present, Chu Qing's skill not only did not diminish in the slightest, but on the contrary, it seemed to be growing stronger.

Otherwise, why would I have broken through twice in succession after fighting him all this way?

But every time I fight him, I feel like we're evenly matched.
Could it be that he can become stronger when facing stronger opponents?
This is utterly bizarre and absurd!
At the same time, Chu Qing's understanding of the Ghost Emperor's martial arts became increasingly profound.

But at this point, it became clear that killing him in one fell swoop was no easy feat...

This old ghost doesn't have any weakness that could be fatal in one move.

Compared to the Six Paths, Reincarnation, and the Three Paths of Life and Death, his [Path of Ghosts and Gods] seems somewhat immature. However, he has had two breakthroughs in succession. The first was when he comprehended [Ghosts and Gods have no path, the law is naturally formed], and the second was when he comprehended the law of immortality and indestructibility from the cycle of reincarnation.

This made the Ghost Emperor's martial arts even more unfathomable.

Fortunately, Chu Qing has come a long way to this point, and his internal strength cultivation is far beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

Otherwise, we would have lost this battle long ago.

Now, Chu Qing is certain that the Ghost Emperor's internal energy cultivation is roughly equal to his own.

Even though he has broken through twice in a row, the only improvement is in his explosive power. If he wants to significantly increase his internal strength, he still needs to digest it properly, and he doesn't have that time yet.

However, this also presents the best opportunity to kill the Ghost Emperor.

If we miss this opportunity, once the Ghost Emperor integrates himself, his internal strength will undoubtedly improve by leaps and bounds. With his immortal and indestructible abilities, killing him will become extremely difficult.

But... how easy is it to kill him now?

The Divine Blade Slash has already been used once... This move is an unbeatable technique for others.

But facing the Ghost Emperor, Chu Qing was hesitant to use it a second time.

After all, even a Saint Seiya wouldn't be defeated twice by the same move, so why could the Demon Emperor fall twice to the divine sword?

As for "a sword that separates worlds"... it seems to fall short of that.

"Could it be... that we really have to use that move?"

Chu Qing glanced subconsciously in the direction of the various experts from the Southern Region, and finally let out a long sigh.

The next instant, the Three Elements Light Wheel suddenly erupted.

The Three-Point Divine Finger technique was executed flawlessly.

This wasn't the first time the Ghost Emperor had faced the Three-Part Divine Finger, and he was already quite adept at dealing with it.

Therefore, it is clear that the chances of Shen Dao Zhan killing him a second time are indeed slim.

Even so, the Ghost Emperor was pushed back dozens of feet by this Three-Point Divine Finger, temporarily widening the distance between the two.

Chu Qing did not give chase, but hovered motionless in mid-air.

The Ghost Emperor spread his arms, ready to receive the attack, but was slightly taken aback when he saw that Chu Qing hadn't arrived.
"What's wrong? Have you run out of ideas?"

Chu Qing shook her head slightly:

"I was just thinking..."

"What are you thinking about?"

"I wonder what kind of person the Ghost Emperor really is."

Chu Qing said softly:

"No matter if it involves your wife, daughter, or anyone around you, it's hard to get emotionally affected."

"However, when you were unable to command your fellow cultivators in the Southern Region, you became surprisingly angry... that kind of rage and genuine emotional outburst made me feel that you were a living, breathing person."

The Ghost Emperor smiled indifferently:
"You want to shake my resolve?"

"You think these few words can make my [Way of Ghosts and Gods] crumble on its own?"
"That's ridiculous."

"of course not."

Chu Qing shook her head slightly:

"Since you realized that ghosts and gods are without principle, such rhetoric has become meaningless to you."

"The best time to break through your mental barriers is before you realize that ghosts and gods are without morality."

"Hua Jinnian is indeed your daughter. Although she hates you to the bone, she still accidentally pushed you..."

"Although she asked me to kill you, it doesn't mean I've failed to repay your kindness in raising me. After all, I've failed her more."

"I will not try to deceive you in this matter and think I can succeed."

"Then what's the point of you saying all this now?"

The Ghost Emperor frowned slightly.

Chu Qing smiled, then suddenly flung his hand, and the Shark-Slaying Blade was thrown down.

He raised his right hand again, and a throwing knife appeared in his palm.

He said softly:
"Nothing special, just casual conversation."

"Because next... no matter how many times your so-called reincarnation and immortality, or the indestructibility of ghosts and gods, will allow you to be resurrected."

"You will die by my hand time and time again!"
