Chapter 439 The Elixir of Immortality (Page 12)
Yang Jian: "First level."
Yang Jian raised his hand and waved it, causing ripples to spread across the surface of Yaochi, transforming it into a mirror-like surface.
"Okay."
He didn't move, but suddenly a dazzling golden light erupted from his body, and his body expanded at a visible speed—
Ten meters, one hundred meters, one thousand meters!
In the blink of an eye, a towering, silver-armored general stood in the Jade Pool, his three-pointed, double-edged sword like a giant pillar supporting the sky, his heavenly eye open, golden light hanging in the sky like a blazing sun!
Lin Qiye tilted his head back, his neck almost breaking: "..."
Zhang Yun: "Holy crap! This is bigger than Ultraman!"
Yang Jian's voice boomed like thunder: "It's your turn."
The next second, he returned to normal size and patted Lin Qiye on the shoulder: "Remember, spiritual power should flow through the Du meridian, and divine sense should gather at the Baihui point."
Lin Qiye took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and focused his mind.
"Om-!"
The black box sword trembled, and spiritual energy surged into its limbs and bones like a tide.
His skin glowed with a pale golden light, his bones cracked, and his body slowly grew taller—
Three meters, five meters, ten meters!
"It worked?!" Zhang Yun shouted excitedly.
however--
"boom!"
Lin Qiye's left leg suddenly went out of control, and he stepped on half of the pavilion, causing it to collapse!
"Ah! My peach!" Sun Wukong's phantom sprang out of the ruins, holding a flattened peach in his hands, glaring angrily.
Lin Qiye said awkwardly, "I'm sorry..."
Before he could finish speaking, his right arm lashed out uncontrollably, slapping the surface of the Jade Pool—
"boom--!!!"
A spray of water, hundreds of meters high, erupted and drenched Zhang Yun.
Zhang Yun wiped his face: "...You did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Lin Qiye: "...No."
Yang Jian watched from the sidelines with his arms crossed, a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth: "His self-control is too poor."
He raised his hand and waved, and dozens of stone pillars rose up around the Jade Pool: "Practice until you can avoid all the stone pillars, then we can talk about the next step."
Lin Qiye nodded and tried again.
"boom!"
The first stone pillar was smashed.
"Crack!"
The second stone pillar was kicked away.
"Boom——!"
The third stone pillar was uprooted.
Yang Jian's third eye twitched wildly: "..."
Zhang Yun squatted down beside him, cracking sunflower seeds: "Qi Ye, what you're doing doesn't look like the Law of Heaven and Earth, it looks like a demolition team."
Lin Qiye: "...Shut up."
After half a day of "destructive training," Lin Qiye was finally able to barely control his ten-meter-tall body.
Just as he carefully circled around the last stone pillar—
"Shh!"
A golden light descended from the sky, and Yang Jian suddenly manifested his divine form, his thousand-meter-tall body reappearing, and unleashed a punch!
"Accept!"
Lin Qiye's pupils contracted sharply, and he instinctively crossed his arms—
"boom--!!!"
He was punched into the Jade Pool, splashing up a huge spray of water.
Zhang Yun: "...Is this teaching or murder?"
Yang Jian returned to his original state and said calmly, "Practice makes perfect."
The water broke open, and Lin Qiye scrambled out in a disheveled state, but his eyes lit up: "I understand!"
He used the Law of Heaven and Earth again, this time with much smoother movements, and managed to barely catch Yang Jian's second punch!
"Not bad." Yang Jian rarely showed a smile. "Let's do it again!"
The battle lasted for an unknown amount of time.
Lin Qiye was panting heavily as his ten-meter-tall giant form slowly shrank back to normal human size.
His arms trembled slightly, and a faint golden light lingered on his skin—the afterglow of the first use of the Law of Heaven and Earth.
Yang Jian stood not far away, his silver armor reflecting the setting sun, his third eye slightly closed, and said calmly, "Barely acceptable."
Lin Qiye grinned and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Thank you for your guidance, True Lord."
Zhang Yun jumped out from the side, holding a half-eaten peach in his hand: "Qi Ye, you've practiced the Law of Heaven and Earth quite well, but your movements are still a bit stiff, like a giant baby who has just learned to walk."
Lin Qiye: "...Shut up."
Yang Jian glanced at Zhang Yun: "Since you have already mastered the Law of Heaven and Earth, why don't you give it a try?"
Zhang Yun raised an eyebrow: "Me? Fight you?"
Yang Jian: "What, you don't dare?"
Zhang Yun grinned and casually tossed the peach pit aside: "Fear? That word doesn't exist in my dictionary!"
In the center of the Jade Pool, a sea of clouds churns.
Zhang Yun took a deep breath, and his spiritual energy suddenly surged!
"Candle Dragon - Law of Heaven and Earth!"
"boom--!!!"
His body instantly swelled, his skin transformed into bronze-like scales, a pair of dragon wings spread out from his back that blotted out the sky, and his eyes rotated like the sun and moon, his left eye as bright white as day and his right eye as deep blue as night!
—The true form of Zhulong!
Lin Qiye looked up at the thousand-meter-tall dragon-shaped giant and murmured, "This guy... is this strong?"
A hint of approval flashed in Yang Jian's eyes: "Not bad."
The next second, his figure also swelled up, covered in silver armor, and his three-pointed double-edged sword transformed into a towering pillar. His Heavenly Eye opened, and golden light hung in the sky like a blazing sun!
—The Dharma Image of True Lord Qingyuan Miaodao!
The two giants stood facing each other, their imposing presence like a mountain, causing the surface of the Jade Pool to ripple with towering waves!
"Come!" Yang Jian made the first move, his three-pointed double-edged sword sweeping across the enemy ranks!
"clang--!!!"
Zhang Yun's dragon claw took the blow head-on, sparks flew everywhere, and the shockwave tore the clouds within a radius of a thousand meters to shreds!
"That was exhilarating!" Zhang Yun laughed, and his dragon tail lashed out at Yang Jian!
Yang Jian dodged the dragon's tail with a flash, and slashed at Zhang Yun's chest with his backhand!
"boom--!!!"
The dragon scales cracked, and Zhang Yun grunted, but took the opportunity to slap Yang Jian's shoulder with his claw!
"boom!"
Yang Jian was knocked back three steps, the ground cracking, but a smile appeared on his lips: "Interesting."
Zhang Yun shook his numb hands: "True Lord, your knife... is a bit hard!"
Yang Jian: "Your scales are not bad either."
The two clashed again, and the air trembled as their fists and feet collided!
Although Zhang Yun's Candle Dragon Dharma Form was powerful, Yang Jian's combat experience far surpassed his.
Thirty rounds later—
"boom--!!!"
Yang Jian deflected Zhang Yun's dragon claw with a single slash, then kicked him in the chest!
"Boom——!!!"
Zhang Yun's thousand-meter-tall body flew backward, crashing into half of the immortal mountain, sending dust billowing into the sky!
Lin Qiye: "...Is this teaching or beating?"
Amidst the smoke and dust, Zhang Yun's Candle Dragon Dharma Image slowly rose, patting the dirt off his body: "It's alright! I'm tough!"
Yang Jian sheathed his sword and stood there: "Your 'Law of Heaven and Earth' has the form but lacks the spirit."
Zhang Yun scratched his head: "What do you mean?"
Yang Jian: "All show and no substance."
Zhang Yun: "..."
Despite being badly beaten, Zhang Yun was extremely excited.
He regained his human form, sat cross-legged to regulate his breathing, and his eyes gleamed with enlightenment: "So that's how it is... The 'divine union' realm of 'following the laws of heaven and earth' requires resonating with the heavens and earth!"
Yang Jian nodded: "Although you have mastered the Law of Heaven and Earth for many years, you have always been stuck at the 'form is huge' stage. Today's battle can be considered as touching the threshold of 'divine union'."
Zhang Yun grinned: "Getting beaten up can level me up, it's worth it!"
Lin Qiye walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "Remember to bring some Tiger Balm next time, maybe it will help you win."
Zhang Yun: "That makes sense!"
Yang Jian:"……"
As night falls, starlight shines on the Jade Pool.
The three sat on the shore, gazing at the giant's afterimage reflected in the water.
Zhang Yun rubbed his aching arm: "True Lord, you went too far."
Yang Jian said calmly, "If you don't exert yourself, you won't remember."
Lin Qiye suddenly asked, "True Lord Yang, what level have you reached in your Dharma of Heaven and Earth?"
Yang Jian was silent for a moment: "The third level, Heart Fusion."
Zhang Yun's eyes widened: "The body is the universe, and the universe is the body?"
Yang Jian nodded: "However, you still have a long way to go."
Zhang Yun: "..."
Lin Qiye chuckled: "It seems we still have a long way to go."
Yang Jian gazed at the starry sky, a profound look flashing in his Heavenly Eye: "The road may be long, but it is worthwhile."
Skyrim.
The night was deep, the starlight was dim, and the surface of Yaochi Lake reflected the aurora borealis, creating a tranquil and mysterious scene.
at this time!
Yang Jian's third eye suddenly opened, and golden light pierced through the clouds like a sharp sword, pointing directly at a shadow in the northwest corner of Yaochi.
"You hiding thing... come out!"
"Shh-!"
The clouds burst open, forcing two figures to reveal themselves—
Hermod's golden hair flew wildly, his silver armor gleamed coldly in the moonlight, and the golden dice spun wildly between his fingers, yet a playful smile remained on his face: "Oops, I've been found out."
Violet's black robes billowed, the ancient book in her hand moved without wind, runes flashed, and a trace of solemnity flashed across her cold and beautiful face: "Yang Jian's Heavenly Eye... indeed troublesome."
Lin Qiye and Zhang Yun instantly became alert, unleashing the power of the Black Box Straight Blade and the Candle Dragon simultaneously!
"It's you again?" Zhang Yun narrowed his eyes. "Didn't you get enough of a beating last time?"
Helmod shrugged. "We're not here for drinks this time."
Violet's fingertips traced the pages of the book as she whispered, "The threads of fate are intertwined here... We must take something with us."
Yang Jian's three-pointed double-edged sword gleamed coldly, and his Heavenly Eye locked onto the two: "Those who trespass into Kunlun Void shall die."
Helmod chuckled: "Don't be so serious, we're just here..."
Before he could finish speaking, the golden die suddenly exploded, transforming into countless blades of light that attacked Yang Jian!
"Clang clang clang—!!!"
Yang Jian swept his blade across, shattering all the light blades, and his figure moved like lightning, heading straight for Hermod's throat!
"Time Freezes!"
Hermod's dice spun again, and the surrounding spacetime suddenly slowed down, causing Yang Jian's movements to pause slightly.
Violet seized the opportunity to flip through the pages of the book, and whispered, "Fate, Shackles!"
"Shh-!"
Countless black chains shot out from the void, wrapping around Yang Jian's limbs!
"Seven Nights, charge!" Zhang Yun shouted, and the true form of the Candle Dragon instantly unfolded, its thousand-meter-long body blotting out the sky!
Lin Qiye drew his black box sword, and the Eternal Night Domain enveloped the entire area: "Eternal Night - Annihilation!"
"boom--!!!"
The blade flashed like ink, aimed at Violet's throat!
Violet's pupils contracted sharply, and she hurriedly flipped through the pages: "Fate - Shift!"
"Shh-!"
Her figure shifted three feet to the side in a strange manner, the blade flashed past her shoulder, but left a bloody mark on it!
"Tsk, you dodged pretty fast." Lin Qiye sneered, his sword stance changing again. "Again!"
On the other side, Zhang Yun's true form, the Candle Dragon, slapped Helmod with its claw: "Dice bastard, take this!"
Helmod was unable to dodge in time and was slammed into the ground by the dragon's claw, creating a crater a hundred meters deep!
"Cough cough...that's powerful!" He spat out a mouthful of blood, and the golden dice lit up again, "Time Warp!"
"Shh-!"
His figure vanished instantly, reappearing behind Zhang Yun, a blade of light piercing straight into his heart!
