Chapter 55: Clash Of Astonishing Swan Saber And Indestructible Diamond Divine Skill!
A gentle breeze brushed across everyone’s faces.
The eyes of the entire Hanging Temple fell upon that figure in black clothes and a conical hat.
Seeing this figure, many people were still somewhat dazed.
So the “Astonishing Swan Saber” was still at the Hanging Temple.
After so many days of seclusion, some monks had almost forgotten Ji Qing.
Only Kong Wen frowned.
He did not recognize Ji Qing.
The other party was not a monk, so he should not be from the Hanging Temple.
As for Jianghu…
Jianghu was too vast, and Ji Qing was just a young man, so Kong Wen could not immediately recognize him.
Perhaps only after making a move would he know.
“What big words! Just you, a young man, dare to say you will settle twenty years of grudges?”
Kong Wen sneered.
However, he keenly noticed that the Hanging Temple’s monks and martial monks, upon seeing the “black clothes and conical hat” figure, surprisingly did not think the other party was boasting.
They seemed very convinced.
This was not right!
This was very not right!
Especially Kong Zhi, who was even hesitating.
Based on his understanding of Kong Zhi, this young man in “black clothes and conical hat” seemed to have even won over Master Kongzhi.
But how could that be possible?
“Among the rising stars in Jianghu, who could make even Kong Zhi convinced?”
Kong Wen immediately searched his mind.
“Wait, black clothes, conical hat, long saber… this attire, could it be the ‘Astonishing Swan Saber’ Ji Qing?”
Kong Wen’s pupils suddenly contracted.
Astonishing Swan Saber—Ji Qing!
That was someone with the reputation that when the Astonishing Swan Saber appears, heads fall.
Draw Sword and blood must be seen!
He had consecutively slain second-rate peak experts.
Especially the Poison Demon who had transformed into a demon, who was also slain by Ji Qing.
Master Kongzhi let out a long sigh and said: “We monks are said to embrace compassion, but Buddhism also has the wrathful glare of the Diamond, and for such vile obstacles who bully their master and eradicate their ancestors, we must use thunderous means to suppress and kill!”
“Mister Ji, please make your move to settle this twenty-year grudge!”
Master Kongzhi agreed.
In fact, he was well aware of the great value of this promise from Ji Qing.
If Ji Qing later became a first-rate expert, or even possibly a grandmaster, the value of this promise would be even greater.
If he had a choice, Master Kongzhi would not choose to use this promise just a few days later.
Unfortunately, the current Hanging Temple could not wait any longer!
If they waited any longer, the Hanging Temple would be destroyed.
“Good!”
Ji Qing agreed.
His gaze finally shifted from Master Kongzhi to Kong Wen.
Thus, Ji Qing walked out of the Great Hall.
He walked step by step toward Kong Wen.
But with every step closer, Kong Wen felt the pressure increase.
“You are… the ‘Astonishing Swan Saber’ Ji Qing?”
Kong Wen asked in shock and uncertainty.
“Yes.”
Ji Qing nodded in response.
“Weren’t you in a decisive battle with the Poison Demon and poisoned by deadly toxin?”
“That’s why I came to the Hanging Temple to seek martial arts.”
“Extreme Yang Scripture?”
Kong Wen understood.
He naturally knew that the Hanging Temple’s Extreme Yang Scripture could neutralize mysterious poison, and once cultivated to perfection, it made one immune to all poisons.
But the Extreme Yang Scripture was the core martial arts of the Hanging Temple.
And they gave it to an outsider?
“Hahaha, Kong Zhi, you can’t even protect the Hanging Temple’s martial arts, what face do you have to be the abbot? After you die, what face will you have to go see that old thing?”
Kong Wen burst into laughter.
He only needed to think slightly to know how Ji Qing had obtained the “Extreme Yang Scripture”.
Facing Kong Wen’s mockery, Master Kongzhi said nothing, merely turning his prayer beads and continuously reciting Buddhist chants.
“Ji Qing, I hear your saber technique is stunning, but this old man has the Indestructible Diamond Divine Skill. Let’s see whether your saber technique is superior, or if this old man’s Indestructible Diamond Divine Skill is stronger?”
As Kong Wen’s words fell.
A faint golden light began to emanate from his body.
Indestructible Diamond Divine Skill, one of the top body-refining external martial arts.
Once cultivated to perfection, it was said to be impervious to blades and spears.
However, in Jianghu, was there truly anything impervious to blades and spears?
The Indestructible Diamond Divine Skill also had its limits.
Once the applied power exceeded the limit, the Indestructible Diamond Divine Skill would naturally break.
Ji Qing stopped.
His hand rested on the hilt.
“Boom”.
Saber Momentum erupted.
Like a precious saber with exposed sharpness, it recklessly emitted a fierce aura.
“Saber Momentum…”
Kong Wen’s heart shook.
He was an old Jianghu veteran, well-informed, and naturally knew about Saber Momentum.
He had originally thought that the “Astonishing Swan Saber” Ji Qing comprehending Saber Momentum was just a rumor.
But now, facing Saber Momentum directly, he suddenly realized, how could it be just a rumor?
Ji Qing had indeed comprehended Saber Momentum!
This was a technique that even first-rate experts might not comprehend.
But now, the arrow was on the string and had to be fired.
He fully circulated the Indestructible Diamond Divine Skill.
“Pfft”.
His clothes shattered one after another, revealing a pale golden body.
Kong Wen then charged madly toward Ji Qing.
The distance between them was only a few zhang.
As long as he reached Ji Qing, he was confident he could explode him.
After all, in close combat, Kong Wen feared no one.
However, the premise was that he could close the distance.
Ji Qing had not yet drawn sword.
If he drew sword, Kong Wen would have to withstand that one saber to have a chance to explode Ji Qing.
If he could not withstand it, Kong Wen would die!
Both sides knew this was the crucial saber.
“Clang”.
Ji Qing did not hesitate.
He drew sword.
Although Ji Qing had drawn sword many times before.
Every time he drew sword, he went all out.
This time was no different.
As he drew sword, the internal energy in his body erupted with a boom.
This time it was not his previous internal energy, but internal energy fused with the Extreme Yang Scripture at the perfection realm.
True Extreme Yang Internal Energy!
Ji Qing felt as if there was a fire in his body, and as he drew sword from the sheath, the fire was guided into the blade light.
Although Ji Qing had only opened five meridians, his internal energy, whether in depth or purity, surpassed those second-rate peak martial artists!
Moreover, it was boosted by Saber Momentum.
Therefore, this saber was Ji Qing’s most peak saber at present.
Ji Qing also had absolute confidence that the other party definitely could not block it!
“Swish”.
The blade light fell on Kong Wen’s body.
The fierce blade edge collided with the pale golden light of the Indestructible Diamond Divine Skill.
The Indestructible Diamond Divine Skill, originally claimed to be impervious to blades and spears, faced this blade light like tofu, instantly sliced open by the blade light.
The pale golden light was dyed red.
Blood splashed.
Kong Wen’s figure halted, his eyes widened, as if in disbelief.
“Jianghu rumors say the ‘Astonishing Swan Saber’ is fast as a startled swan, but they do not know that the ‘Astonishing Swan Saber’ is even more indestructible, unable to be blocked even by my Indestructible Diamond Divine Skill…”
“Twenty years of hard cultivation still amount to nothing, hahaha…”
Kong Wen threw his head back and laughed.
But as he laughed, his body suddenly collapsed to the ground.
A bloodstain had already appeared on his neck, blood splashing, dyeing the ground red, the air filled with a thick bloody scent.
Ji Qing had long sheathed his saber.
But he did not relax, instead gazing toward outside the temple.
“You’ve watched for so long and still not leaving, do you also want to try Ji Mou’s saber?”
Ji Qing’s voice was not loud, but it clearly reached everyone’s ears.
