A man in the martial world, a reincarnated sword immortal.

Chapter 75 Witch, don't hurt my son!

Zhong Yuan flew past, skimming through the main hall, and then flew down the stone steps beside the hall toward the back mountain.

The higher we went, the thicker the fog became!

When we reached a platform, we looked back and saw that the mountains were covered with lush green pines and bamboos, and clouds rolled around in the valleys!

Sometimes it peeks out from the mountain peak, revealing only a sliver of green, and sometimes it completely envelops the entire valley!

Even as the wind rustles through the treetops, the figure of the Heavenly Mountain Child Granny can still be faintly seen!

Zhong Yuan cursed under his breath, calling her an old hag, and flew away without stopping.

If he continues to fight with the Heavenly Child Granny, he will definitely be the one to lose.

Although the true energy within his body had just shown signs of continuous growth, it only lasted for a short time.

It doesn't last.

If he continues to fight until his internal energy is exhausted, he will be at the mercy of Tianshan Tonglao.

However, this also made Zhong Yuan look forward to the state when he cultivated the Heart King Sutra to perfection.

At that time, the true energy within his body will surely be able to be constantly replenished and endlessly generated.

Just as Zhong Yuan and Tianshan Tonglao flew one after the other toward the back mountain behind the Mahavira Hall.

Inside Lingjiu Temple.

The group of martial arts practitioners watched as Tianshan Tonglao and Zhong Yuan rode away, and their faces were filled with amazement.

today.

They never expected this.

We will witness such an earth-shattering battle!

Fang Zheng, the deadly scholar, used all his skills, including the unparalleled technique of invisible sword energy, yet he was still relentlessly pursued and attacked by the Heavenly Mountain Child Granny.

The strength of the Heavenly Mountain Child Granny is truly astonishing.

at this time.

Someone shouted, "We can't let the Heavenly Child Granny escape!"

"Let's chase after them and see what's going on!"

Before the words had even finished,

Some people had already slipped away towards the side door behind the main hall.

Immediately.

Those martial arts practitioners all rushed towards the back hall.

Qiao Feng addressed the three masters: Ku Rong, Xuan Ji, and Xuan Tong, saying, "Three masters!"

"This matter must have a resolution!"

"Let's chase after them and see!"

The three monks held hands, and the crowd chased after them towards the back mountain behind the main hall.

there.

The four Hu Yan brothers, Mu Wanqing, and Zhang Erniu and his daughter had already joined the crowd and headed towards the back mountain.

……

The internal energy consumed by Zhong Yuan when using Flying Dragon in the Sky is far less than that consumed when using Return to Origin.

Therefore, as he rushed uphill, his internal energy recovered considerably.

Just then.

Suddenly, a pavilion appeared in front of them, and two people sat down in the pavilion.

A game of chess was carved on the stone table!

Water droplets seeped from the cracks in the stone, making the chessboard pattern appear dark.

The two were playing chess.

One of them was Li Qiushui, the woman in white whom Zhong Yuan had seen in the city at the foot of the mountain!

The other person was a young man, dressed in a blue robe, with a handsome and gentle appearance.

It seemed as if they heard the sound of Zhong Yuan landing.

Li Qiushui raised her eyes, glanced at Zhong Yuan, then smiled slightly from beneath her white veil and said softly, "Young Master Fang."

"We meet again!"

Zhong Yuan took a deep breath. Sure enough, that old woman Li Qiushui has arrived too!

Could the person sitting opposite her be Duan Yu?

good good!

With Li Qiushui around, Tianshan Tonglao will always have to be somewhat wary.

He simply walked directly to the pavilion, sat on the seat, and secretly circulated his internal energy to recover.

He then turned to Li Qiushui and asked, "Does what you said last time still stand?"

As Li Qiushui placed her piece, she laughed and said, "Of course!"

Zhong Yuan said, "Very well. Today, young lady, you have lent me a helping hand. In the future, all the people of the Xiaoyao Sect will surely die by my sword."

A strange look flashed across Li Qiushui's face.

She held the chess piece in her hand and said to Zhong Yuan, "Young Master Fang."

"I am very satisfied with your performance."

"But I'm curious, why don't you learn the Northern Darkness Divine Art?"

Zhong Yuan raised an eyebrow.

"I'm not one to take advantage of others' efforts for my own benefit!"

A vague, indescribable meaning flashed across the depths of Li Qiushui's eyes.

Back then, she left behind the [Northern Darkness Divine Skill] and [Lingbo Steps] in the Langhuan Paradise so that later generations could learn them and use them to destroy Ding Chunqiu.

Ding Chunqiu possessed a wealth of poison skills; if someone were to cultivate such skills, they could use the Northern Darkness Divine Art to drain Ding Chunqiu dry.

They will inevitably succumb to the poison and die.

She considered this two-birds-with-one-stone strategy to be perfect!

But, unexpectedly...

The martial arts techniques she left behind in Langhuan Paradise were indeed taken away.

But this person was able to resist the temptation and not practice the [Northern Darkness Divine Art], but only practiced the [Lingbo Steps].

This boy named Fang Zheng really surprised her.

Among those in the martial arts world, how many can resist the temptation of the [Northern Darkness Divine Skill]?

As for taking the internal energy of others and using it for one's own purposes.

That would be something many people would love to do but never do.

Fang Zheng, that kid, is truly extraordinary in his character; he's a completely different kind of person from the silly boy Duan Yu sitting opposite her.

With just a word from her, Duan Yu would obediently do as she said.

It is extremely easy to control.

But Fang Zheng is different.

Then... the Northern Darkness Divine Art and the Lingbo Steps should not fall into the hands of such people.

but.

Right now, it's better to meet her good senior sister first before talking about anything else.

In any case, there's absolutely no way this certificate can escape her grasp!

huh~~~

In the time it took to speak.

There, the figure of the Heavenly Child Granny had already floated over.

The Heavenly Child Granny arrives amidst the mountain winds and mist!

Suddenly, I spotted Li Qiushui under the pavilion.

And there's Jong Won sitting there!

The anger in his eyes had already burst forth!

"Li Qiushui!!!"

"You bitch!!"

"So it was you who was behind this!"

"You think you can hurt me by sending this kid surnamed Fang to deal with me?!"

"That's utterly delusional!!!"

Tianshan Tonglao and Li Qiushui were like enemies meeting, their eyes blazing with hatred!

Li Qiushui burst into laughter!

"My dear senior sister!"

"I never intended for someone else to kill you!"

"Because I want to kill you with my own hands before I'll be satisfied!"

As Li Qiushui finished speaking...

From Lingjiu Temple in the distance, the faint sound of a wooden fish can be heard.

Knock knock knock!

One sound after another, slow as a mountain stream, gradually calmed the heart.

Li Qiushui then said to Zhong Yuan, who was standing to the side, "Young Master Fang, you finish this game of chess for me!"

"If you can win this round for me!"

"I will cherish you!"

"Yu-ge'er!"

"If you win against Brother Fang."

"I will cherish you very much!"

Upon hearing this, Duan Yu, sitting opposite her, blushed and dared not look directly at Li Qiushui, only stammering, "Fairy Sister!"

"I will win!"

Li Qiushui flashed out and swooped down, clapping her hands towards Tianshan Tonglao!

Li Qiushui, dressed in a long white silk dress and adorned with pearl hairpins, clapped her hands as she emerged.

She added, "Senior Sister, you've visited Lingjiu Temple more than once over the years!"

"Can you tell me what exactly is hidden within Lingjiu Temple?"

Tianshan Child Granny roared angrily, her figure suddenly soaring into the air. She unleashed her ultimate technique, "I Am the Only One in the Eight Desolations and Six Directions," and struck out with both palms at Li Qiushui, the palm wind whistling!

Even the pine branches nearby were shaken and fell down.

Li Qiushui and Tianshan Tonglao were from the same school, so she was naturally very clear about Tianshan Tonglao's methods.

She remained calm and composed, her body swaying to the side, her feet landing in the Seven Stars formation, barely avoiding the grab. Then, she struck out with a backhand palm, the palm wind soft but the internal force incredibly fierce. It was the Lesser Formless Skill of the Free and Unfettered Sect. Seemingly effortless, it had actually sealed off the path of the Heavenly Mountain Child Granny.

The two had already begun to fight.

Zhong Yuan had no intention of sitting down and playing chess with Duan Yu.

Instead, he sat there, focusing all his energy on recovering his internal strength.

Duan Yu, however, addressed Zhong Yuan as, "Young Master Fang!"

"The fairy goddess wants you to place the stones for her!"

"If you win against me."

"The fairy sister might reward you with something."

Zhong Yuan raised an eyebrow.

"You win this round!"

Upon hearing this, Duan Yu's face lit up with joy, but he also seemed somewhat troubled.

"Young Master Fang, it is unfair for me to win by letting you have it this way."

"If the fairy sister finds out..."

"She'll definitely be angry."

"Young Master Fang, why don't you finish this game with me?"

Seeing this, Zhong Yuan felt somewhat helpless, fearing that Duan Yu would come closer and buzz in his ear.

He went straight up and placed a piece randomly.

Upon seeing this, Duan Yu's face lit up with joy.

"Young Master Fang, you need to be serious, otherwise my victory will not be considered unfair."

Duan Yu was already quite skilled at chess.

Zhong Yuan, however, was too lazy to get entangled with Duan Yu.

It's just randomly placing pieces.

there.

The Heavenly Child Granny moved with ghostly speed, growing stronger with each fight; she had clearly already fought a great battle with Zhong Yuan!

However, it did not show any signs of decline.

The internal energy within his body seemed inexhaustible.

Her palm strike was still incredibly powerful. A pine tree as thick as a bowl was swept away by her palm wind and instantly snapped in two at the waist, crashing into the clouds with a loud bang!

Upon seeing this, Zhong Yuan felt a pang of anxiety.

Old witches like Tianshan Tonglao have cultivated the Eight Desolations and Six Directions Supreme Technique for decades, and their inner strength is as deep as the sea.

Aside from her flawed mind, she had almost no other shortcomings.

Today's battle has benefited him greatly!

Once he has mastered the Heart King Sutra, he will successfully cultivate the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth.

If I were to fight Tianshan Tonglao again, I would definitely not be in such a sorry state as I am today.

Li Qiushui and Tianshan Tonglao are both top martial arts masters of their time, and it is a very rare sight to see the two of them fight.

He looked closely and benefited greatly.

Li Qiushui possesses profound internal strength, and her Xiaowuxiang ability allows her to imitate the moves of various schools and sects. When Tianshan Tonglao uses the Tianshan Zhemei Hand, she can also use the same move.

The two fought so fiercely that the pines rustled and the clouds churned, and within a radius of several feet, not a single intact pebble could be found.

In the heat of the battle, the Heavenly Mountain Child Granny let out a furious roar!

Suddenly, he leaped up and landed at the top of a tall pine tree. With a powerful push, he uprooted the entire tree and sent it crashing down on Li Qiushui with tremendous force.

Li Qiushui sneered, neither retreating nor advancing, and thrust both palms out, forcefully pushing them against the tree trunk. With a loud "boom," the pine tree, as thick as a person's embrace, was shattered into countless pieces by her palm force, with wood chips flying everywhere.

Tianshan Child Granny leaped out, her black clothes covered with wood chips.

She laughed in anger, raised both hands, and pushed him away again.

Li Qiushui met his palm with his, holding her own.

At this time.

From the mountains, figures surged toward them.

But then all those heroes of the martial arts world arrived together.

The crowd saw Tianshan Tonglao and Li Qiushui engaged in a fierce battle in the forest.

A look of horror appeared on everyone's face!

"Another martial arts master!"

"They actually managed to fight the Heavenly Child Granny to a standstill!"

now.

Those martial arts practitioners from various sects saw those two afterimages.

Everyone was utterly astonished.

The Heavenly Child Granny is incredibly powerful!

They've already seen them!

But, I never expected this!

In the back mountains of Lingjiu Temple, there was actually a woman in white who could fight the Heavenly Child Granny to a standstill!

Then came Xuanji and Xuantong from Shaolin Temple, Zen Master Kurong from Tianlong Temple, and Duan Zhengchun's group.

Upon seeing the two combatants, they were all horrified.

I never expected to see something like this!

Qiao Feng sighed.

"I never imagined there would be someone in the martial arts world with such high attainments!"

Li Qiushui and Tianshan Tonglao are both top-level martial arts masters.

At first, the outcome was still uncertain.

However, Tianshan Tonglao and Zhong Yuan had been fighting for quite some time, and she had not yet recovered to her peak condition.

Then Li Qiushui approached him again.

Li Qiushui, having rested and waited for the enemy to tire themselves out, had already gained the upper hand.

In a moment of carelessness, Tianshan Tonglao was struck on the shoulder by Li Qiushui's palm strike, causing her to stumble and fall off the bluestone.

Li Qiushui, not one to back down, lunged forward and struck Tianshan Tonglao on the head with a palm strike, seemingly about to succeed!

Tianshan Tonglao rolled away suddenly, avoiding vital points, and reached out to grab Li Qiushui's lower abdomen. Her fingernails tore through Li Qiushui's long dress, leaving five deep bloody marks on her abdomen.

Li Qiushui cried out in pain and slapped Tianshan Tonglao on the back with her palm!

Tianshan Child Granny lunged forward, crashing into another pine tree, spitting out a mouthful of blood that stained the blue stone in front of her.

She slowly stood up, leaning against the tree trunk. Her white hair was disheveled, and there was blood at the corner of her mouth. She cursed at Li Qiushui.

"You bitch, do you think you can succeed today?"

Immediately!

She let out a long howl!

Before long, dark figures from the surrounding woods quickly gathered around!

An old woman dressed in black quickly approached the Heavenly Mountain Child Granny, bowed to her, and said, "Your Excellency!"

"Your subordinates are ready!"

The Heavenly Mountain Child Granny snorted coldly and said to Li Qiushui, "Li Qiushui!"

"Today, you will not leave Lingjiu Temple alive!"

"Didn't you want to know why I've been coming to Lingjiu Temple all these years?"

"You just need to kill that brat surnamed Fang right now, in front of me!"

"I'll tell you!"

Li Qiushui raised an eyebrow!

Is this really true?

The Heavenly Child Granny said proudly, "Why would I lie to you!"

Li Qiushui suddenly turned around and shouted at Zhong Yuan under the pavilion!

"Young Master Fang!"

"Excuse me!"

"I'll borrow your head for a moment!"

Zhong Yuan's heart tightened, and he cursed inwardly, "These two heartless old hags!"

The moment the thought arose, his figure had already soared out!

Li Qiushui transformed into a streak of white light, rushing over with a whoosh, her palm turning into a finger as she grabbed towards Zhong Yuan!

Just then.

A loud shout came from the mountains!

"Witch, don't harm my son!"
