A journey through immortal realms begins with a phantom tale.

Chapter 42 Sparring with Immortal Xuanlong, Competing in Supernatural Powers

"Alright!" Xuanlong Immortal replied briefly.

Luo Cheng recalled Xuanlong's nickname in the Immortal Realm—Wooden Dragon.

"Go!" Luo Cheng uttered a single word, his figure gradually fading as he displayed an extremely skillful teleportation technique.

From this moment on, the competition between the two has begun.

Xuanlong was slightly surprised, then used his immortal techniques, and a golden light flashed, instantly transporting him to outer space.

"Wait!" Li Qiang shouted, using his teleportation ability to chase after Luo Cheng.

After this period of training, Li Qiang has mastered the teleportation technique. With the special enhancement of his divine chess power, his mastery of teleportation is no less than that of Qian Shanyong.

Before long, the three of them stood in the void. At this moment, they were more than 100,000 kilometers away from Lin Mingxing.

This is the method of immortals!

Although Luo Cheng is a cultivator, his current cultivation level is comparable to that of a Celestial Immortal.

Cultivators of the divine can cultivate at an extremely fast pace. It is precisely for this reason that the Celestial Venerable rewrote the rules, mainly to make cultivators spend more time tempering their character and slowing down their cultivation speed.

After Xuanlong stopped, he said, "You make the first move and let me see the skills of you cultivators."

"Alright!" Luo Cheng agreed, and still used the Eighteen Demon-Slaying Hands.

After decades of research and contemplation, he became increasingly adept at using this supernatural power.

"Buddhist supernatural powers?" Xuanlong recognized the supernatural powers that Luo Cheng had used at a glance.

He then exclaimed in surprise, "There are even restrictive measures? It even contains an array! Who created this divine power?"

Although Xuanlong was called the Wooden Dragon, he had exceptional eyesight and saw through the many tricks contained in the Eighteen Demon-Slaying Hands at a glance, and his expression became solemn.

"Five Thunder Immortal Technique!" Xuanlong unleashed his immortal technique, and in an instant, thunder roared through the void.

These lightning bolts, though seemingly filling the void, possessed extremely concentrated power.

Li Qiang thought to himself, "My senior brother is right, we do need to concentrate our power. However..."

Li Qiang felt a sense of doubt. Xuanlong's Five Thunder Immortal Technique was not only concentrated in power, but also had such a large range, which seemed somewhat contradictory.

"Laws!" Upon closer observation, Li Qiang finally discovered the key, realizing with a sudden realization: "So that's how it is. The battles between immortals and cultivators are completely different."

Li Qiang remembered that Luo Cheng once told him that cultivators use their own true essence as a guide and their divine sense as a means to manipulate the primordial energy of heaven and earth and unleash supernatural powers and spells; while immortals manipulate the rules of heaven and earth and use their magical power to operate supernatural powers.

"Laws?" Witnessing the battle between the two, Li Qiang gained a deeper understanding.

This reminded him of the scene he witnessed when he first left Earth, where he saw Fu Shan and Hua Meiniang fighting on Mars.

At that time, the magnificent and powerful magic both shocked and envious him.

As time has passed, Li Qiang is now able to understand the battles between immortals.

In his eyes, Luo Cheng's methods were more sophisticated, which made his understanding of the Eighteen Demon-Slaying Hands even more profound.

"So, the Eighteen Demon-Slaying Hands can be used in this way."

Li Qiang discovered that Luo Cheng's Eighteen Demon-Slaying Hands were not simply an accumulation of techniques, but rather full of variations.

You must know that this supernatural power was created by Lingxu. Lingxu has gone through hundreds of reincarnations and has extraordinary comprehension. How could the supernatural power he created be simple?

"What incredible power!" In the void, Xuanlong used the Five Thunder Immortal Technique to meet the enemy, while Luocheng responded with the Eighteen Demon-Slaying Hands.

In Li Qiang's eyes, the void shimmered with light, and if viewed with divine eyes, one could see chains of laws moving through the void.

Suddenly, Luo Cheng withdrew his supernatural powers, his figure flashed, and he retreated tens of thousands of kilometers.

"Try this!" Luo Cheng thought to himself and unleashed his Buddhist supernatural powers.

"Following the laws of heaven and earth."

It should be noted that there is a fundamental difference between the Dharma of Heaven and Earth and the Dharma of Manifestation of Heaven and Earth; the former is a physical attack, while the latter is a magical attack.

At this moment, Luo Cheng was using the "Law of Heaven and Earth," which is the great supernatural power that Sun Wukong used when he fought Erlang Shen.

Back then, Sun Wukong and Erlang Shen used the "Heaven and Earth Transformation Technique," standing on the earth with their feet on the ground and the nine heavens above their heads.

Originally, Luo Cheng thought that to learn the supernatural power of "Law of Heaven and Earth", he would need to go to a vast world like the one in Journey to the West. However, he did not expect that Elder Zhi's inheritance contained this supernatural power.

This supernatural power was obtained by Lingxu by chance when he traveled through the myriad realms, and it is unknown which deity passed it down to him.

Lingxu was compassionate and did not like to learn those supernatural powers with great destructive power. This is exactly what the Sweeper Monk said: the 72 Shaolin skills are just external things, and the true essence lies in the Buddhist scriptures.

Luo Cheng deeply agreed with the sweeping monk's words. The true "Dharma" is hidden in the scriptures, but it is difficult for ordinary people to understand. They need to carefully study and comprehend it to comprehend it.

Let's put aside other thoughts for now and return to the present moment.

Luo Cheng unleashed the divine power of "Heaven and Earth Transformation," and his body instantly swelled, transforming into a giant tens of thousands of feet tall.

Ten thousand feet is the limit that Luo City can currently reach.

If one cultivates to a high level, one can tread upon the nine netherworlds and ascend to the nine heavens, displaying divine power.

Such extraordinary abilities shocked Li Qiang.

"Wow, senior brother, did you learn this supernatural power from Journey to the West?!" Li Qiang exclaimed in surprise, but Luo Cheng did not respond.

At this moment, Xuanlong's face was solemn.

He could tell that the supernatural power Luo Cheng was using was not an illusion.

In mythology, the reason why the Law of Heaven and Earth is much more powerful than the Law of Manifestation of Heaven and Earth is that it is a great supernatural power that breaks through laws with force.

If we trace its origins, this supernatural power comes from Pangu.

At the beginning of creation, Pangu held the axe that split the heavens, with the sky above his head and the earth beneath his feet, and forcefully held up the heavens and the earth.

After Luo Cheng unleashed the Law of Heaven and Earth, he transformed into a giant ten thousand feet tall, every move he made carrying the power of heaven and earth.

Xuanlong was surprised that Luo Cheng possessed such extraordinary abilities, and his expression grew even more solemn.

Luo Cheng took a step forward, his figure moving like lightning; this was the terrifying aspect of the Law of Heaven and Earth.

After using this supernatural power, strength, speed, reaction, and the application of laws are all greatly enhanced.

Just imagine the terrifying scene when Pangu unleashed this divine power, and you will understand its power.

Before Pangu separated heaven and earth, he wielded the Heaven-Opening Axe and used the Law of Heaven and Earth to slay the Chaos Demon God as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.

Luo Cheng took a step forward and threw a punch at Xuan Long.

The key point is that this punch left Xuanlong with nowhere to dodge.

Using force to break the law, this punch bound the surrounding space and time.

At this critical moment, Xuanlong displayed his formidable strength.

"Thunder!" This is the law of thunder, and also the power of divine punishment between heaven and earth.

Black lightning bolts appeared on Xuanlong's body, containing the destructive laws of thunder power.

The power of thunder possesses both destructive power and vibrant vitality.

In the mortal world, the sound of spring thunder awakens all things, a manifestation of the vitality of thunder.

At this moment, in order to unleash a purer killing power, Xuanlong only used the destructive power of thunder.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, bolts of lightning erupted from Xuanlong's body.

Imagine the terrifying power that a thunderous explosion would generate; just look at Xuanlong at this moment to know.

After Luo Cheng threw a punch, he intended to hold back, but then he sensed that Xuan Long had unleashed terrifying power.

Luo Cheng understood that the wooden dragon had indeed kept a trick up its sleeve.

This makes sense; how could an immortal who can live for over a million years be so simple?

"Transform!" Xuanlong unleashed his Thunder Transformation Divine Power, and suddenly, nine colors of lightning appeared in the void.

Nine is the ultimate number, representing the most terrifying power.

This supernatural power was even more powerful than the Five Thunder Immortal Technique that Xuanlong had used before. Luo Cheng vaguely sensed that these nine types of thunder posed a threat to him.

However, Luo Cheng relied on his Heaven and Earth Transformation Divine Power to withstand Xuan Long's Nine Thunder Immortal Technique.

"Holy crap!" Li Qiang flashed and teleported 100,000 kilometers away.

At this moment, Lin Mingxing's cultivators had already noticed the abnormality.

They were on the star Linming, and from afar they could see a giant ten thousand feet tall in the void, surrounded by lightning of nine colors.

"Immortals are fighting!" In just a moment, all the cultivators understood.

"This must be a battle between immortals!" Some highly skilled cultivators used teleportation techniques to rush towards the outer reaches of the sky.

Such a great battle is a once-in-a-hundred-thousand-years event; it would be a great pity not to witness it with one's own eyes.

Whoosh... One figure after another moved towards the sky, and when everyone saw Li Qiang, they all landed beside him.

"Senior Li!"

"Senior Li, is that Immortal Xuanlong?"

While watching the battle, Li Qiang greeted the arriving cultivators.

"My senior brother is sparring with Brother Xuanlong."

With just this one sentence, the cultivators felt that Li Qiang had unknowingly "pretended" to be someone else.

"Brother Xuanlong? That's an immortal! How can you be on friendly terms with an immortal?"

The cultivators immediately realized that they were no longer on the same level as Senior Li.

Looking at the battlefield ahead, Senior Li's senior brother had transformed into a giant ten thousand feet tall and was evenly matched with the immortals.

"Senior Li, what kind of supernatural power did your senior brother use?"

Li Qiang explained with a smile, "This is the legendary 'Law of Heaven and Earth,' you should know about it, right? This is a divine power used by Pangu when he created the world."

"The Heaven-Opening Divine Power?" Upon hearing this, the cultivators were stunned, feeling utterly insignificant.

The great battle continues. Luo Cheng uses the Law of Heaven and Earth to fight back, while Xuan Long uses the Nine Thunder Great Immortal Technique to resist.

After a while, Luocheng retreated 100,000 kilometers.

"Immortal Xuanlong, let's stop here."

Xuanlong didn't want to fight anymore; in his eyes, Luo Cheng was simply a monster.

He could sense that Luo Cheng's cultivation level was slightly lower than his own, but his strength was extremely powerful.

The two were just sparring, not engaged in a life-or-death battle, so there was no need for them to fight anymore.

Xuanlong remained confident that he had a better chance of winning if he were to engage in a life-or-death battle with Luo Cheng.

Luo Cheng withdrew his supernatural powers, instantly reverting to his original form and teleporting to Li Qiang's side.

"Senior brother, you're so handsome!" Li Qiang exclaimed.

Upon seeing Luo Cheng, all the cultivators bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, Senior Luo."

"I have met Immortal Luo."

Xuanlong withdrew his supernatural powers, his body enveloped in a golden light, and he vanished without a trace, disappearing to an unknown location.

The cultivators found it normal that the immortal ignored them.

After greeting everyone, Luo Cheng turned and left, leaving only Li Qiang behind to chat with the others.

Luo Cheng sighed again, saying that Li Qiang's social skills were something that others really couldn't learn.

It should be noted that Linming Star is a sacred place for cultivation. There are extremely few loose immortals in the Fengyuan Star area. Linming Star can easily produce more than a dozen of them. In addition, there are a few Mahayana and Tribulation Transcending cultivators, as well as a large number of Nascent Soul and Body Integration cultivators.

For a time, this void became as bustling as a vegetable market.

Luo Cheng landed on the ground and found Xuan Long waiting for him.

Xuanlong said, "Come sit at my place."

"Okay!" Luo Cheng replied.

After this exchange, Xuanlong had come to acknowledge Luocheng.

Luo Cheng pondered to himself that this was a good opportunity to inquire about the Immortal Realm from Xuan Long, and also to ask about the Illusion Star Temple.
