Film and Television Daqing: Starting with the Heaven-Covering Technique and the Devouring Demon Art

Li Changsheng struck out with his palm, creating a whistling sound, aiming straight for Li Chengtian's face; Li Chengtian, however, slightly turned his body to avoid the attack, and at the same time, struck back with his palm, colliding with Li Changsheng's palm in mid-air, producing a deafening sound.

The force of the palm strike sent tiles flying everywhere on the rooftop, and the crowd below retreated hastily, fearing injury from the aftershocks. However, the two masters on the rooftop seemed completely oblivious, continuing their fierce battle.

Their speed increased, their movements became unpredictable, sometimes like a dragon soaring through the heavens, sometimes like a phoenix dancing in the sky, each clash was dazzling.

Li Changsheng's swordsmanship was incredibly fierce, with each strike aimed directly at Li Chengtian's vital points; while Li Chengtian used his internal energy to transform his palm into a sword, clashing head-on with Li Changsheng's swordsmanship, making it difficult to determine who was superior.

As time went on, the fight between the two intensified.

Li Changsheng's swordsmanship became increasingly exquisite, with each move containing profound internal strength and the essence of martial arts; while Li Chengtian was known for his abundant internal strength, easily deflecting Li Changsheng's attacks no matter how fierce they were, and finding opportunities to counterattack.

"Mr. Li's swordsmanship is indeed exquisite!"

While fighting, Li Chengtian exclaimed in admiration, "But today, Chengtian will also show you the power of my Daqing martial arts!"

After saying that, he suddenly sprang up, his inner energy surging like a tidal wave, and with each swing of his palms, he created gusts of wind.

He suddenly unleashed the "Flying Dragon in the Sky" move from the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms he had taken from Xiao Feng, combined with the Heaven-Shrouding Demonic Art within his body.

Instantly, his palms transformed into two golden dragon shadows, roaring as they pounced towards Li Changsheng.

Seeing this, a hint of admiration flashed in Li Changsheng's eyes. He moved to the side, easily dodging the attack, and at the same time, he flicked his sword tip, sending a sharp sword beam slicing through the sky, heading straight for Li Chengtian's chest.

However, just as the sword light was about to strike Li Chengtian, he suddenly stopped, as if frozen in place.

Immediately afterwards, his internal energy suddenly erupted, forming an invisible protective aura that forcefully deflected the sword light back.

"Impressive skills!" Li Changsheng exclaimed. "You really have some talent!"

Li Chengtian smiled slightly, and his internal energy surged once again.

He spread his body like a roc spreading its wings and rushed towards Li Changsheng. As his palms flew, they brought up golden palm winds that intertwined with Li Changsheng's swordsmanship.

The fight between the two intensified, and the rooftop seemed to have become a battlefield.

The crowd below held their breath, watching intently, afraid of missing a single exciting moment. Li Chengtian and Li Changsheng, however, seemed to have forgotten everything around them, completely absorbed in the battle.

After an unknown amount of time, their battle finally subsided. They stood up, each holding their own position, their eyes reflecting respect and admiration for one another.

“Li Chengtian, your strength is indeed extraordinary,” Li Changsheng said slowly. “I, Li Changsheng, have seen countless people in my life, but I have never seen such a young and promising master as you before.”

"Mr. Li, you flatter me."

Li Chengtian smiled modestly, "I only won by luck. If you hadn't shown mercy, I probably would have been defeated long ago."

"Hahaha……"

Li Changsheng laughed loudly upon hearing this, "You don't need to be modest. I am well aware of your strength. Although we did not win or lose today's battle, it is enough to prove your strength and potential."

Now that I have been defeated, I am no longer the strongest in the world. I submit to you! However, I once promised the founding emperor of the Northern Li royal family that I would protect the Northern Li kingdom.

Your Majesty, may you grant my request?

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Li Chengtian's eyes, then he said solemnly, "Mr. Li's noble character is something I deeply admire. Protecting Beili is not only the wish of the Beili royal family, but also the wish of my Daqing."

I, Li Chengtian, hereby swear that if the Northern Li royal family does not resist, my Great Qing will never invade or invade the Northern Li territory. At the same time, I will do everything in my power to ensure the long-term peace and stability of the Northern Li.

Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng smiled with satisfaction and nodded slowly: "With Your Excellency's words, I am relieved. From now on, I, Li Changsheng, am willing to serve Your Excellency wholeheartedly and work together for a great cause."

Having said that, Li Changsheng knelt on one knee, placed his right fist on his left chest, and performed a solemn salute of allegiance: "Li Changsheng pays respects to Your Majesty!"

Li Chengtian quickly stepped forward to help Li Changsheng up, and said with a smile, "With Mr. Li's help, it's like adding wings to a tiger. It's my great fortune!"

The crowd below, witnessing this scene, was utterly shocked. Li Changsheng, the master revered as "the best in the world," had actually pledged allegiance to an outsider—this completely overturned everyone's understanding.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on the addition of another valiant general!"

Mingyue Xin was the first to react and loudly congratulated them, and the others echoed her, bringing the atmosphere to a climax.

……

North of the Imperial Palace.

Emperor Tai'an stood alone outside the imperial study, watching the sky gradually clear, his brows furrowing involuntarily.

"Zhuoqing," Emperor Tai'an said to the chief eunuch Zhuoqing standing beside him, "who lost the battle between Mr. Li and Li Chengtian just now?"

“Your Majesty,” Zhuo Qing replied respectfully, “it was Mr. Li who lost.”

"What did you say?" Emperor Tai'an was taken aback and asked in surprise, "Li Changsheng, the number one martial artist in the world, has been defeated?"

Over the years, Li Changsheng has been a constant worry for Emperor Tai'an.

As long as Li Changsheng was in Tianqi City, Emperor Tai'an felt as if a sharp sword was hanging over his head, ready to fall and take his life at any moment.

Now that he heard that Li Changsheng had lost, he wasn't angry at all; in fact, he was quite excited.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Li Changsheng has been defeated!" Zhuo Qing replied.

"Good! Very good! From now on, do you think Li Changsheng will still dare to call himself the best in the world in front of me?" Emperor Tai'an clapped his hands and cheered, and for a moment he became so proud that he lost his mind.

He was even more excited and happy than when he first ascended the throne.

"Your Majesty..." But Zhuo Qing vaguely sensed an unease and reminded him from the side, "Your Majesty, Li Changsheng's defeat by Li Chengtian may not be a good thing for our Northern Li royal family."

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Emperor Tai'an frowned slightly, a hint of doubt flashing across his face. "What do you mean by that?"

Zhuo Qing lowered his voice and slowly said, "Your Majesty, although Li Changsheng was defeated, he chose to submit to Li Chengtian. This Li Chengtian has a mysterious background, unfathomable strength, and is ambitious and wants to do great things."

Now that even a master like Li Changsheng is willing to serve them, the future of our Great Beili will likely face unprecedented challenges.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Tai'an's expression gradually became serious; he had not anticipated this.

He pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "In your opinion, how should we deal with this?"

P.S.: Thanks for subscribing!!! (Zero)

Chapter 120 Venerable Envoy Wuxiang, please allow me to accompany you! (Please subscribe!)

After pondering for a moment, Zhuo Qing suggested, "Your Majesty, in my opinion, we need to find out Li Chengtian's background as soon as possible, and at the same time strengthen the defense of the palace and the border to prevent any unforeseen events. In addition, we can secretly contact forces such as Nan Jue and Tian Wai Tian to form a check and balance and prevent Li Chengtian from becoming too powerful."

"You want me to unite with foreign enemies? Zhuo Qing, do you have a death wish?!" Emperor Tai'an's face darkened, and he suddenly flew into a rage.

Nanjue and Tianwaidi have always been regarded as external enemies by the Northern Li royal family.

To make him defy the ancestral teachings and form an alliance with Nan Jue and Bei Li is tantamount to sending him to his death!

He absolutely refused.

"Your Majesty! Please hear what this old servant has to say." Zhuo Qing hurriedly knelt on the ground and explained, "Your Majesty, this old servant is not suggesting that you form an alliance with foreign enemies, but rather that we secretly contact each other to jointly counterbalance Li Chengtian's power."

This old servant knows full well that this action is against convention, but the situation is critical, and I have no choice but to consider the safety of the Northern Li royal family.

Zhuo Qing spoke sincerely, his forehead slightly sweaty, clearly having been driven to a dead end.

Emperor Tai'an frowned, his eyes blazing, pacing back and forth in front of the imperial study, seemingly weighing the pros and cons.

After a moment, he stopped and said in a deep voice, "Continue."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhuo Qing quickly responded, "Li Chengtian's strength is unfathomable, and he is surrounded by many experts. If I, Bei Li, were to fight him alone, I'm afraid I would find it difficult to contend with him."

However, if we can establish a delicate balance with forces like Nan Jue and Tian Wai Tian, ​​we can at least temporarily stabilize the situation and buy ourselves time.

"time?"

Emperor Tai'an repeated himself, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes, "You mean, we need time to do something?"

“Indeed, Your Majesty.” Zhuo Qing nodded. “We need time to investigate Li Chengtian’s true purpose and the forces behind him.”

At the same time, we must strengthen our own capabilities. We cannot slacken in any area, whether it's military training, weapons development, or the cultivation of martial arts masters. Only in this way can we remain invincible in the storms of the future.

Emperor Tai'an remained silent for a moment, seemingly processing this information. 12345

He knew full well that what Zhuo Qing said was true; the Northern Li royal family was indeed facing unprecedented challenges.

Finally, he slowly spoke: "Alright, we'll do as you say. But remember, everything must be done in secret, and no one can discover our intentions."

"This old servant understands, Your Majesty, please rest assured."

Zhuo Qing respectfully agreed, secretly relieved.

He knew that although his suggestion was risky, it was for the sake of the future of the Northern Li royal family.

……

At the same time, news of Li Changsheng's defeat by Li Chengtian reached the martial arts world of Nanjue.

Yu Shengmo, who was diligently practicing the Demon Immortal Sword, immediately stopped.

He looked at the messenger who had rushed over with the news and asked for confirmation, "Say it again? Li Changsheng really lost?"

"Yes, sir, it is absolutely true. Li Changsheng, the one hailed as the number one expert in the world, was defeated in his duel with Li Chengtian in Beili and has already submitted to Li Chengtian's command."

The messenger's tone was filled with awe and disbelief, clearly indicating that this news was nothing short of a bombshell for the Southern Martial Arts World.

Upon hearing this, Yu Shengmo's eyes flashed with a complex light.

He slowly lowered the sword in his hand, the tip of the sword lightly touching the ground, emitting a slight hum, as if it were resonating with its master's emotions.

"Li Changsheng... he actually lost."

He muttered to himself, his voice deep and magnetic, exuding an undeniable air of authority.

After a moment of silence, Yu Shengmo suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashing with a resolute light.
