The wondrous uses of Incense and Fire Qi

Qin Wuya smiled wryly at Gu Yuanqing's confident appearance. Although this body had only just entered the Dao Fire Realm, and his Divine Soul could not achieve absolute harmony with it, if it were in the Cultivation World, even Peak Divine Platform Cultivator would not dare to underestimate him at this moment. Heavenly Human Divine Soul, even a wisp of it, was still Celestial Person.

The Cultivator in the Floating World ultimately have too narrow a perspective; they are like frogs in a well, looking at the sky from the bottom of a well.

He sighed softly, "Since you're unwilling to hand it over yourself, then I'll just have to take you down first."

As he spoke, a soft sword was drawn from its sheath at his waist, transforming into a streak of Sword Light that slashed down.

Its momentum was not great, but it was so fast, moving through the air silently, locking onto Divine Sense, making it feel like there was no way to avoid it.

Gu Yuanqing remained calm, flicking his finger to send a jade pendant flying out. In an instant, it transformed into a giant hand that took it, Empowerment with the spirit of the Green Mountain.

Qin Wuya let out a soft exclamation, a look of surprise on his face. He made Sword Art gesture, and the Sword Light flying in the air suddenly disappeared. It reappeared One Zhang in front of Gu Yuanqing and went straight for his throat.

Gu Yuanqing stepped back, threw out another Jade Pendant, which hung above his head and transformed into a majestic Green Mountain. The Flying Sword's speed rapidly decreased, and it showed signs of being suppressed.

Qin Wuya flicked his finger, Flying Sword spun smoothly before disappearing outside the realm of the Green Mountain. He laughed, "No wonder you're so confident. The Dao Resonance of this mountain contains the power of sealing and suppressing. Even Divine Platform Cultivator, if caught off guard, would likely be suppressed by it. In this Floating World, it's practically invincible. However, it's a pity you've encountered me."

As he spoke, the Jian Fei and landed in his hand. Dao Fire ignited, and Sword Intent soared into the sky, tearing apart the clouds in mid-air.

In an instant, all things fell silent, and animals within a radius of dozens of miles felt a sudden chill, their heartbeats ceasing.

With a single slash of his sword, Gu Yuanqing felt as if everything around him had transformed into countless sharp swords aimed at him. It was as if Heart Demon had surfaced within him, wielding Flying Sword to strike at his mind.

The Green Mountain Phantom that appeared around his body rippled incessantly, as if they were about to dissipate at any moment.

This was the first time Gu Yuanqing had encountered such a situation. As someone who also practiced Swordsmanship, he naturally understood that this was due to the profound attainment of Sword Dao Sword Intent, which had materialized and influenced all things.

Flying Sword fell, before it even arrived, the jade tablet floating in the air shattered, and the Green Mountain vanished. As Gu Yuanqing retreated, another jade tablet was thrown out, transforming into a towering mountain that blocked his path.

"It's useless, why bother struggling in vain." Qin Wuya had a smile on his face, but traces of blood were seeping from his body. However, as soon as they seeped out, they were burned away by the Dao Fire on his body.

This is the power unleashed by the Heavenly Human Divine Sense, which his physical body could not bear.

The jade pendant shattered again, and Gu Yuanqing threw out two more Jade Pendant. One transformed into Green Mountain to block in front of him, and the other transformed into a giant hand to grab Qin Wuya.

But Qin Wuya's figure suddenly disappeared into the distance, leaving behind a Space Rift that quickly healed, leaving only wisps of Demonic Qi that had seeped in.

He reappeared in the direction Gu Yuanqing had retreated, and with a slash of his Flying Sword, the last jade tablet shattered once more under the azure Sword Qi.

His Sword-Finger at Gu Yuanqing's throat, a smile on his face, as if victory was assured. He had thought it would take ten years to cultivate this body to the Dao Fire Peak, but he hadn't expected such a pleasant surprise upon his return, which saved him a lot of time.

However, he suddenly discovered that Gu Yuanqing, whose various methods had been neutralized, showed no sign of panic. Instead of retreating in the face of his Flying Sword, he turned around and charged at him.

He crashed head-on into the Sword Qi, Sword Qi pierced his throat.

He was startled and sensed something was wrong. There was no way Gu Yuanqing would seek death on his own, and in this series of battles, apart from retreating and using the jade token, he had not displayed any other methods.

Qin Wuya quickly withdrew and retreated, because he also felt that the Sword Qi that had pierced Gu Yuanqing's throat was not responding properly, as if it had struck in Liaokong.

But it was already too late. Gu Yuanqing closed in on him, and his body was torn to pieces by the Sword Qi.

Qin Wuya's heart sank. This was not a body of flesh and blood, but an aura filled with countless shimmering golden and red lights.

This is the Incense and Fire Qi!

Gu Yuanqing, using some unknown method, condensed the Incense and Fire Qi into a Avatar, and before that, he had not noticed it at all!

Far away in Within North Spring Mountain, Gu Yuanqing, who was sitting cross-legged in his room, suddenly opened his eyes. He smiled and activated the Heavenly Fishing Method. The lingering spiritual energy there could serve as the coordinates for the Heavenly Fishing Technique.

The True Essence and Divine Sense, Empowerment by the power of North Spring Mountain, burst forth from the void, transforming into a hook that dropped its string and swept towards Qin Wuya, who was standing nearby.

The moment the space was torn open, Qin Wuya sensed it, but this method was different from ordinary methods, and his body was only at the initial stage of Dao Fire formation, so he had no time to react.

The fishing hook pierced Qin Wuya's body, and a sharp pain shot through his Divine Soul.

He was both shocked and furious. His Heavenly Human Divine Soul power erupted, and a powerful Sword Intent disrupted the surrounding space.

Gu Yuanqing's Fishing Line snapped, and the remaining Divine Sense was obliterated by the Sword Intent, while Qin Wuya's body disappeared from the spot and reappeared a hundred feet away.

Then, he merged with the Flying Sword and actually used the Sword Escape Technique in the Realm of Dao Fire, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

All of this happened in an instant. Qin Wuya reacted too quickly when he encountered danger, and Gu Yuanqing didn't even have time to use any other methods.

In the North Spring Mountain, Gu Yuanqing frowned slightly.

"Who exactly is this Heavenly Human Split Soul? It doesn't seem to originate from the Lingxu Sect."

He raised his hand and summoned the half-scroll of Void Form Remnant Scripture had obtained from the Void. This Remnant Scripture indeed profound. Even in the deduction of Cultivation Method at the Divine Platform Realm, Gu Yuanqing could still find some useful information in it.

But would these things alone be enough to distract a Heavenly Human Split Soul Demon Subduing Sword the primary focus, with the Remnant Scripture scripture merely a side benefit?

But then Gu Yuanqing realized something was wrong. He knew that only Xu Void Form had this Remnant Scripture scripture in his possession, which meant that Qin Wuya, who possessed the Celestial Person, must have captured Void Form. If that was the case, why didn't he make him write it down? Based on Gu Yuanqing's understanding of Void Form, he would definitely not hold back anything in order to survive.

"Or is there another secret hidden within that original scroll?"

Gu Yuanqing reached out and retrieved the original scroll from the bookshelf to examine it. After comparing it with the copied version that day, he hadn't paid any more attention to it.

Holding it in his hand, Gu Yuanqing examined it from top to bottom and left to right, but couldn't find anything unusual about it. He only felt that its material was extraordinary. He pressed his fingers hard on the corner of the tattered scroll, but couldn't leave a mark.

Gu Yuanqing tried everything, including channeling his True Essence, Divine Sense, and even using methods like Mountain-Viewing Object Control, but he still couldn't discover what Xuanji this object held.

After much fuss, Gu Yuanqing finally gave up. Perhaps he was just overthinking things, or perhaps the Celestial Person simply didn't trust others to copy the scriptures.

"I wonder if this person has the other part of this Remnant Scripture scripture. If so, that would be interesting."

Gu Yuanqing got up and went to the Courtyard, looking in the direction of the battle that had just taken place.

"The Celestial Person is indeed difficult to completely destroy. Even with only the initial stage of Dao Fire, he was able to break the power I sealed in the jade tablet and escape from my Heavenly Angling Method. It seems fortunate that Zhang Xuanlin entered North Spring Mountain. Otherwise, even if he were around North Spring Mountain, the power I could borrow would far exceed the power sealed by the jade tablet, and I would probably have had ways to deal with him."

Qin Wuya's escape today made Gu Yuanqing even more wary of the Celestial Person. After all, their level of cultivation was far higher than his, and he also had no understanding of the Celestial Person' methods.

Fortunately, I sensed something was amiss this time and didn't go out, otherwise I might have really fallen for his trick.

He looked up at the swirling Incense and Fire Qi surrounding North Spring Mountain and immediately found it much more pleasing to the eye.

Although the Incense and Fire Qi is not conducive to his cultivation, it does help maintain his Divine Sense.

Gu Yuanqing couldn't achieve the same level of Split Soul as Celestial Person, but he found a glimmer of inspiration by using the Incense and Fire Qi to travel thousands of miles with his Divine Sense.

They also found a Xuanji in Zhang Xuanlin's Puppet body.

He used his Object Control Art to capture a large amount of Incense and Fire Qi, and then, imitating the Puppet Array, he carved the Array Formation onto a piece of Jade Stone. He then attached his Divine Sense to it, using the Incense and Fire Qi to sustain this Divine Sense so that it would not dissipate even when it was far from his body.

He then used his true Primordial Spirit sense to perform illusionary techniques, and used the power of North Spring Mountain to create Spatial Art to isolate himself from external influences.

If this Spatial Barrier is not broken, it will appear to the Outer Realm as if the True Person were real.

Using a wisp of Divine Sense as a guide, Gu Yuanqing could remotely manipulate the creatures in North Spring Mountain using the techniques of Heavenly Fishing and Object Control Art.

In the middle of a desolate mountain, a streak of light fell to the ground, and Qin Wuya, covered in blood, staggered a few steps before regaining his balance.

He looked down at his body, his brows furrowing slightly. This time, he had suffered a great loss at the hands of a mere child. That last move of his had actually managed to directly attack his Heavenly Human Divine Soul, forcing him to unleash his full power.

Although it escaped, its body was severely damaged.

"That barrier was Spatial Art, containing the Incense and Fire Qi and the art of Puppet. I never imagined such methods existed in this Floating World. I was careless and failed to see through it; I was truly negligent."

He took a deep breath, swallowed a Restoration Pill, circulated his Cultivation Method, ignited his Dao Fire, repaired his injuries, and restored his True Essence.

"Could this Gu Yuanqing also be Heavenly Human Divine Soul? Otherwise, how could he possess such abilities, and how could he have obtained both the Demon Subduing Sword and the Creation Scripture?"

There aren't that many coincidences in the world!

Thinking of this, Qin Wuya's expression darkened. This was the last thing he wanted to see, especially since he had finally managed to find a trace of these two items.

He left his Cultivation Method in this realm under the guise of a trial, which allowed him to avoid the Lingxu Sect's descent. But in the end, he discovered that a Great Mountain was blocking his way!

If Gu Yuanqing were just Ordinary Person in the Floating World, even if he had some fortuitous encounters, he believed that as long as he cultivated to the Peak the Dao Fire Realm, with the help of Celestial Person beings, it would be a piece of cake.

But the current situation is not so simple. If Gu Yuanqing is also a reincarnation or reincarnation of Great Cultivator, he has no confidence at all.

"It seems we must find another way!"
