Every Battle Was a Hard Fight
On the fiery red shore of the lake, Zhou Chengru, Cui Chongxuan, and their group of five had already spotted Li Qingyue and Qin Ming.
The atmosphere instantly became incredibly tense. The people opposite were on high alert, staring intently at the spotless and graceful Li Qingyue.
Moreover, their gazes were almost entirely focused on her, with little attention paid to Qin Ming and the other three Golden Armor Guard.
The Beyond-Mundane Core Disciples know each other best. In the past two years Li Qingyue's rise has been too rapid, creating a powerful deterrent.
Although she appears to have fair skin and an ethereal beauty, once she engages in battle, she is utterly devastating, crushing many powerful disciples along the way.
Over the past two years, she has solidified her unshakeable core position with her real and amazing record.
Zhou Chengru looked solemn. He was no ordinary person; his master was of extremely high seniority. His Martial Uncle was Cui Chonghe's master, a renowned Old Senior in the Night Mist World, and he was not intimidated by Li Qingxu's teacher at all.
Although Cui Chongxuan was not familiar with Li Qingyue, he had met her before, and with the influence of the Millennium Aristocratic Family, he was well aware of the extraordinary nature of this Core Disciple.
"We can ignore the others; we'll focus our attack on Li Qingyue!" someone said beside Zhou Chengru.
"Li Qingyue's four Golden Armor Guard are easy to deal with." Someone echoed, they were all people who practiced special techniques, and they were full of confidence.
Another person said, "We can't be careless either. We must first swiftly cut through those four and get them out of there quickly."
Undoubtedly, they didn't take Qin Ming and his group seriously enough, treating them like easy prey.
Li Qingyue stepped forward lightly and said, "Zhou Chengru, since this is a competition among Core Disciple, how about just the two of us spar? The winner advances, the loser is eliminated, it's perfectly fair."
On the shore of the crimson lake, Zhou Chengru shook his head. He definitely couldn't accept the challenge. No one wanted to face Li Qingyue alone, especially since Cui Chonghe had prepared a very strong team for him.
How could he possibly cripple himself by attacking the enemy's strength with his own weakness? He smiled and said, "Senior Sister Li, since the elders of each family have set the rule allowing four Golden Armor Guard to enter, there must be a deeper meaning behind it; it's also part of one's strength."
"Then let's go!" Li Qingyue didn't hesitate. Her silver armor shone even brighter against the fiery red glow of the lake, making her look heroic and dashing.
"The three of you just need to gang up on one person at a time. Don't worry about the others," Qin Ming whispered to the three Golden Armor Guard beside him.
If anyone else had dared to say that, the three of them would have felt it was extremely disrespectful. But this Tathagata's Abandoned Disciple, or rather, the successor of the Jade Clarity Force, Qi Ingestion them greatly because he was so formidable that he had the right to speak like that.
Qin Ming shouted to the other side, "We're fellow travelers on the New Life Path, can't we have a friendly chat here? If that's not possible, then let's have a few serious matches."
Someone on the other side chuckled. Although they were extremely wary of Li Qingyue, they had already studied her followers and knew they could easily take them down.
"To be honest, apart from you being a stranger, we know you all inside and out. Any one of us could probably expose all four of you."
Qin Ming immediately perked up and said, "Alright, how about we try it this way? If we can't break through the four of us, we'll just sit down and discuss the Dao, and forget about the Core Disciple."
"What are you thinking? Let me take you home first!" one of the Outer Saint said, taking a step forward and appearing close in an instant, as if he had teleported there.
Because he saw that Li Qingyue was about to fight Zhou Chengru, he wanted to quickly deal with her followers.
This Outer Saint was indeed extraordinary. He unleashed the full power of the Heavenly Light Force, and even let out a tiger's roar. Behind him, a Black Tiger, gathering Sha Qi, vaguely appeared.
"Be careful, that's Black Tiger Evil Force!" shouted the female Golden Armor Guard behind Qin Ming. After the Heavenly Light Force condenses its Sha Qi, its power can be greatly increased, or even doubled.
Clearly, this is not a "New Saint." He must have been in this field for at least two years before he could fuse with Earthly Fiend, Fire Essence, and so on.
The two had already started fighting when the woman shouted.
Moreover, Qin Ming did not use the Overlord Spear, but instead fought with his bare hands.
He did not underestimate his opponent. He merged more than ten kinds of Heavenly Light into one, and with his left fist and right palm, he displayed a powerful strength that could capture dragons and subdue tigers, even in a free and natural style.
His left fist slammed forward, shattering most of the opponent's Black Tiger Evil Force. With a gentle flick of his right palm, the man was struck as if by lightning, his hands covered in blood. The so-called tiger claws had been torn off, and all the nails had come off.
With a cracking sound, the man's fingers were completely broken, and his body trembled as if he had been struck by some enormous force. Then, like a Scarecrow, he was sent flying more than ten meters away.
He coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face turned pale, and he stood up unsteadily.
"Very strong!" Qin Ming commented.
His Heavenly Light Force was completely integrated into one, and the fact that this person could stand up after being hit was truly extraordinary, making him a master.
But when these words reach the ears of the person opposite, they take a different tone; is it blatant mockery?
"Snap!"
The very young Outer Saint heard cracking sounds coming from both arms; Qin Ming's Heavenly Light Force had only just finished erupting.
He couldn't lift either of his arms; the fractures had even spread to his shoulders, with fine cracks in his scapula, which horrified him!
"I can't go on, I can't fight anymore," he said, his face pale.
At the same time, Li Qingyue and Zhou Chengru clashed by the lake, creating a storm of Consciousness Spirit Light between them. The crimson lake surged with the waves, and Fire Haze crashed into the sky.
Cui Chongxuan and the other two gave Qin Ming a deep look, then rushed towards Li Qingyue together, wanting to help Zhou Chengru injure her.
"Didn't we agree to break through the four of us? Are you going to do it the other way around? I haven't even stepped into the Outer Saint Domain yet, and you guys are no match for me!" Qin Ming used the Grass Treading Flight Movement Method, his feet seemingly not touching the ground, rushing into the battlefield like a wisp of smoke, and immediately blocking one of them.
His right hand glowed, and he used Adhesion Force to pull the man back without lingering. Suddenly, he threw the man dozens of meters away, where he crashed into the fiery red lake, splashing water everywhere.
"Senior Brother Zhou, hold on, let's take care of him first." Cui Chongxuan said to Zhou Chengru. He could tell that Qin Ming was not someone to be trifled with, and if they didn't take him seriously, it would be easy for trouble to break out if the other party attacked from behind.
"Who exactly are you?" Cui Chongxuan demanded. He was certain that this person had not yet stepped into the Outer Saint Domain, and was in the same New Life stage as him, or even lower in realm, which made him seem terrifying.
To defeat Outer Saint during the early stages of New Life is something no ordinary person can do; it must be due to exceptional talent and mastery of the renowned Heavenly Light Force Technique.
"Look closely, who do I resemble?" Qin Ming stood by the lake, facing the two people in front of him alone.
"I don't care who you are!" The expert who had fallen into the lake came ashore, his body radiating a surge of Heavenly Light, more than a foot away from his body, and he charged forward again.
Qin Ming pointed one finger to the sky and the other to the ground, looking around with a smile on his face. This scene made the boy who was charging towards him like a giant elephant stop abruptly.
"Tathagata's Abandoned Disciple?!" he exclaimed in shock, his face changing color, and even the Giant Elephant Force in his body became somewhat unstable.
According to legend, the Tathagata Force Jin" technique completely suppressed their lineage's martial arts, leaving them unable to raise their heads. Their Ancestor were all once the protectors of the opposing lineage.
"Aren't you going to back down now that you see me?" Qin Ming said calmly.
"You're a traitor, not a true disciple, so why should I resign!" The tall young man realized what was happening, his Giant Elephant Force surging, shattering the earth as he charged forward.
This time, Qin Ming did not use the "Elephant Toss". Now that he had lured everyone over, he had enough time to calmly and unhurriedly strike the opponent's Giant Elephant Fist.
During this process, Cui Chongxuan and another person also made their move; now is not the time for a fair fight.
Qin Ming unleashed Heavenly Light Force, as if he were clad in a divine armor. He used his left hand to brush away Cui Chongxuan's exceptionally bright fist, which resembled Great Sun, while simultaneously striking the tall youth who wanted to clash with him head-on with his right hand.
It must be said that Cui Chongxuan's Six Royal Force put immense pressure on Qin Ming. The dazzling fist slammed into his left hand, causing his body to tremble violently.
Although his Qi and Blood was churning, he still managed to hold on.
Not long ago, he combined various protective Cultivation Method, such as the Vajra Armor, the Golden Light Shield, and the Golden Silkworm Skill... Even the Li Fire Divine Skill had a protective effect.
His right hand struck repeatedly, causing the tall boy to vomit blood continuously. His Giant Elephant Force collapsed, leaving his hands covered in blood and all his finger bones broken.
Most terrifyingly, that inexplicable force spread along his arms, shattering his arm bones, followed by the breaking of his shoulder blades, and then expanding towards his chest.
"It really is... the Tathagata Force!" The tall young man was horrified. His Giant Elephant Fist was useless, it was naturally countered. He was in excruciating pain in his chest, and most terrifyingly, he was bleeding from his internal organs.
He was thrown sideways by the shock and crashed into the fiery red lake.
Clearly, Qin Ming was serious this time. After all, to face Cui Chongxuan's Six Royal Force, he had to deal with the interference from others first.
"Take him out quickly to find someone to treat his injuries, otherwise his internal organs will be severely damaged!" Cui Chongxuan said.
The young man who had his arms broken by Qin Ming earlier, who had mastered the Black Tiger Evil Force, endured the pain and entered the lake to save people. Then, the two of them quickly disappeared.
Cui Chonghe was very eager for that legendary item, and he only found experts. Otherwise, with Qin Ming's terrifying Heavenly Light Force, he would have blown people apart long ago.
When he clashed with Cui Chongxuan, another person tried to attack him, but Li Qingyue's three Golden Armor Guard tried to stop him and failed, which shows how strong that person was.
Qin Ming did not dodge, but instead used the mutated Golden Silkworm Skill after the fusion to defend himself. He took a solid blow to the back.
"You..." The expert who attacked him was taken aback. He hadn't been shaken at all. Most importantly, the golden threads woven on the opponent's body cut his palm and drew blood.
When his other hand fell, it even caused the golden threads to surge back, and the fine golden threads, like golden needles, pierced his palm, making it bleed.
Cui Chongxuan's Six Royal Force did indeed cause Qin Ming considerable trouble; otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to withstand those two palm strikes head-on.
After severely injuring the master who possessed the Giant Elephant Force, he freed one hand and moved with lightning speed to eliminate the person behind him.
"You're not Tathagata Force!" Cui Chongxuan came from the Millennium Aristocratic Family, and his Lineage had close ties with Beyond the Mundane People, so he naturally knew many secrets and had his own judgment.
Qin Ming's left palm swept across again, blocking the Six Royal Force. Then, his right fist, as white as jade, slammed towards the boy who had slapped him twice, saying, "You try my Jade Clarity Force too!"
"Ah..."
The boy screamed in agony. He was struck by the terrifying Heavenly Light Force, leaving his hands a bloody mess and his finger bones broken into many pieces.
At the same time, his arm bones and shoulder blades cracked one after another, followed by the sound of bones breaking. Then his collarbone ruptured, and blood kept flowing from his neck.
He was sent flying more than ten meters away, his internal organs ruptured, his mouth full of blood and foam. He struggled to his feet and said, "I can't hold on any longer, I'll die if I don't get medical treatment soon!"
Without any hesitation, he turned and ran away.
Outside the Luofu Immortal Mountain Ruins, a tall young man possessing the Giant Elephant Force was having medicine applied to his body. He told the crowd, "The person I encountered may not be a disgraced disciple, but Tathagata Lineage. He has completely suppressed my Giant Elephant Force, rendering it utterly useless."
Soon, a dissenting voice appeared. The boy, who had been severely injured by Qin Ming, stumbled out and said, "No, he might be a successor of the Jade Clarity Force."
Everyone now knows that the mysterious young man is fighting Cui Chongxuan and is capable of resisting the legendary Six Royal Force!
Everyone was shocked; such a fierce battle was taking place inside.
Clearly, to counter the Six Royal Force, one must possess the legendary Heavenly Light Force!
"Everyone, did you pay attention to this young man before? And did you bet on him to win on various betting platforms? This is an unexpected rise and explosion, he could make a fortune!"
Many birds of prey spread their wings and soared into the night sky from here to carry the message out.
Some members of the Cui Household looked grim; the young powerhouses they had invited had been severely injured by the same person and quickly eliminated.
On the fiery red shore of the lake, Li Qingyue injured Zhou Chengru.
On the other side, Qin Ming clashed with Cui Chongxuan multiple times, gradually getting used to the incredibly terrifying Six Royal Force.
"I never imagined that someone at the same New Life realm could shake my Six Royal Force!" Cui Chongxuan was quite shocked. His golden armor clanged as he exuded heroic spirit and once again spread the Six Royal Force throughout his body.
"If one were to ride the true course of Heaven and Earth, and control the transformations of the Six Qi, to roam the boundless realms... there's something wrong with your practice!" Qin Ming said.
