Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 346: At least it can be broken as completely as possible
The process of taking the pill is actually not important. The moment the pill is formed, Mu Cheng is already at the fourth level.
That pill is himself.
He can even abandon his physical body and transform it into a physical body through the elixir.
At this time, the process of him taking the pill was nothing more than a ritual.
As the pill entered the body, bursts of golden light continued to spread out from Mu Cheng's body, reshaping his body. The majestic power of rules burst out from him, exceeding Xuan Yuantian's carrying limit.
This temporary space constructed with the formation was broken. Behind Mu Cheng, the figure of Taihe God appeared in front of Lin Qianxing and Guan Yusheng. At this time, it was fighting with the lecturers of the academy and the masters from the court in the front hall. It seemed that because both the academy and the court had some concerns, the situation seemed a little tense.
Large areas of land were destroyed by their fighting.
Mu Cheng's body was gradually disappearing, which was a sign that he was about to be rejected by Xuan Yuan Tian and ascend to the upper realm.
"Can you please give me the inheritance of the Alchemist before you leave?" Lin Qianxing said.
Mu Cheng was wearing a white robe that fluttered in the wind, his figure soaring into the sky, with a confident smile on his face. He looked at Lin Qianxing and said, "Brother Daoist, don't you understand that nothing in the world is given for free?"
"Of course I know, but I'm tired of fighting with others, so I want to try to see if verbal persuasion can be useful. Facts have proved that for someone like me who has not practiced the art of words, this thing is really useless." Lin Qianxing shook his head.
As he spoke, the [Sun Core] in Lin Qianxing's body began to operate. Artificial meridians in his body lit up, showing a golden light.
Guan Yusheng was a little surprised when he saw this scene, but he came to his senses immediately and said to Lin Qianxing: "Do you really want to fight him? He is already at the fourth level, and it seems that he is not an ordinary fourth level. How confident are you?"
"One hundred percent." Lin Qianxing said calmly: "Watch carefully and don't interfere."
"That's not the way it's calculated, right?" Guan Yusheng raised his eyebrows.
Before Guan Yusheng's voice fell, Lin Qianxing had already moved.
Golden particles spewed out from behind him, and his figure approached Mu Cheng. A divine wind naturally emerged and lingered on his right arm, and then he slapped out with his palm.
Bang~!
The air exploded at the front of Lin Qianxing's palm.
This is his first-level upper-level [Martial Apprentice] Taoist skill, [Push Palm].
For the physical body of an ordinary martial artist, such a palm strike is nothing to behold.
At best, the person would be knocked flying one or two meters away.
But with Lin Qianxing's current physical attributes, the burst of power from the [Sun Core], plus the blessing of the divine wind from the Wind-Attracting Divine Iron, this palm already has the power to split a mountain.
"Using martial arts with a puppet body?"
Mu Cheng was a little surprised, but he didn't have any intention of dodging.
A mysterious light flashed in his eyes, and he poked with his fingers slowly but quickly.
Poof!
The power created by Lin Qianxing's palm was broken at its weakest point and stopped just an inch away from Mu Cheng's fingertips, unable to move forward any further.
But Mu Cheng's sword finger poked forward.
Bang!
The sword finger collided with Lin Qianxing's palm, and Lin Qianxing retreated hundreds of meters, while Mu Cheng did not move at all, but his expression looked extremely surprised.
"An indestructible body? Is that his way? But why can't I sense it? Why can't I include it in the calculation?" Mu Cheng murmured with a puzzled look on his face.
However, before Mu Cheng could figure it out, Lin Qianxing moved closer to him again.
Buzz~!
Boom~!
[Sun Core] Amid the roar, Lin Qianxing kicked out, also using Taoist skills.
Mu Cheng shifted his body slightly and avoided Lin Qianxing's attack by a hair's breadth. Then, as if he had foreseen it, he tilted his head, allowing the energy beam from Lin Qianxing's Sky Eye to fall behind him, directly penetrating the ground and forming a gully.
Wow!
A blade extended from the front of Lin Qianxing's right arm, with strong wind swirling around it, and it passed over Mu Cheng's head, just a hair's breadth away.
Mu Cheng always seemed to be so confident. He never left any errors for himself and believed accurately in every data he calculated.
In a flash, Lin Qianxing had already used all his skills and exchanged dozens of moves with Mu Cheng.
It was basically Lin Qianxing who took action and Mu Cheng who resolved the situation.
Mu Cheng did not take the initiative to attack. He wanted to know what Lin Qianxing's Tao was.
But he was never able to take Lin Qianxing's approach into account.
This was something he couldn't understand.
"Why?" Mu Cheng asked.
"Why?" Lin Qianxing said.
Poof!
A gust of wind transformed into a gas bullet and passed through Mu Cheng's flying hair.
"Yes, there is no such thing as knowledge given for free." Mu Cheng smiled and said, "So, I will let you tell me in person, Brother Dao."
Tick~!
Like water drops splashing on calm water.
Mu Cheng used his Taoist skills.
He is an [Alchemist], a [Puppet Master], a [Corpse Master], and a [War Wizard].
He controls the weather, grasps the geographical location, and manipulates the people.
Therefore, his way is - "control".
Whoosh~bang~!
As the sound of the silk thread being tightened echoed through his soul, Lin Qianxing felt as if his body was entangled by invisible silk threads, and everything about him was under Mu Cheng's control.
"So now, Brother Dao, can you tell me what your Dao is?" Mu Cheng said softly.
Under the influence of Mu Cheng's Taoist skills, Lin Qianxing couldn't help but tell everything about himself.
But he did not make any sound, but quietly observed Mu Cheng.
Mu Cheng's confident expression gradually froze. He looked at Lin Qianxing in disbelief and said, "My Dao is useless to you? This is impossible. My Dao has been sublimated and transformed. Now I can control more than just puppets and corpses. Even if you don't belong to any of them, as long as everything exists, it should be under my control."
"No, your Tao is useful to me." Lin Qianxing explained: "It's just that the strength is not enough."
"What do you mean?" Mu Cheng asked puzzledly.
"To put it simply, your strength is not as good as mine." Lin Qianxing said calmly.
This is true, but it is difficult for Mu Cheng to understand.
However, the next moment, Lin Qianxing's breath was no longer restrained by the armor, the humming sound of the [Sun Core] became louder, and a terrifying heat wave emanated from his body. The spiritual power that was burning all the time was released violently, instantly covering an area of hundreds of miles.
At this moment, everything seemed to have come to a halt.
Even the Taihe God Corpse Puppet who was fighting in the front hall, as well as the people from the academy and the court turned their attention to Lin Qianxing.
"There are still people in the back hall!!"
"What kind of spiritual power is this?"
"Is that Mu Cheng fighting with someone?"
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Xiao Hua, who was a fourth-rank [Sword Master], looked even more confused and doubtful.
He just felt that in front of this force, even if he tried his best, he would still be so vulnerable?
Crack!
Lin Qianxing easily broke free from the silk strings that Mu Cheng was using to control him, which made Mu Cheng a little unbelievable.
"Impossible, you clearly didn't use the power of Tao." Mu Cheng said puzzledly.
" You can understand it as great strength making miracles happen." Lin Qianxing said.
Although he has not broken through to the fourth level during this period, it does not mean that his attributes have stagnated.
With the help of the [Hengwo] plug-in, he doesn't have to worry about anything and can unlimitedly improve his attributes by means of devouring spirituality.
Moreover, the speed of this improvement will increase as his own attributes improve.
Therefore, his soul attribute is now "150268.9".
The increase of attributes in this game is not a simple addition. The difference of only ten attribute points may increase the hard power strength of both sides by several times.
For an average third-order supreme powerhouse, a soul attribute of over a hundred is considered exceptionally high.
The fourth level, the powerful ones may be able to reach several thousand.
The attribute that Lin Qianxing, who is at the third level, possesses far exceeds the imagination of ordinary cultivators.
Mu Cheng's Taoist skills took effect, that was the power of rules.
But even rules have their limits.
It is limited by the strength of the individual.
Even if cultivators in the early stage of the Dao stage have mastered the ability to move mountains and fill the sea, it still depends on how big the mountain is or how wide the sea is. They are powerless if the mountains and seas are too huge.
Mu Cheng is a genius with extraordinary talent, and the power he gained from breaking through to the fourth level this time is definitely not weak.
But compared to Lin Qianxing's strength, the difference is not even a little bit.
To him, Lin Qianxing's huge soul attribute was like unshakable mountains and oceans.
Moreover, with the help of the [Hengwo] plug-in, Lin Qianxing will not suffer any harm.
So Lin Qianxing could use almost brute force to break free from his rules.
Guan Yusheng stared in a daze at Lin Qianxing who was emitting golden light in the sky.
He took off his head, and couldn't understand how that piece of iron could contain such a powerful soul.
Well, he really took off his head and was holding it in his hand, with a very confused look in his eyes.
Lin Qianxing stretched out his hand, and the wind-attracting magic iron on his body emitted a mysterious light. Driven by his power, it formed chains that entangled Mu Cheng's body.
Countless lights flashed in Mu Cheng's eyes as he calculated the weak points of Lin Qianxing's power.
He figured it out, but there was nothing he could do.
Even its weakest point is still much stronger than himself.
With the blessing of the majestic spiritual power, the divine wind chain constructed by Lin Qianxing was extremely powerful, far beyond his imagination.
Crash!
Lin Qianxing pulled the chain and brought Mu Cheng to the surface, in front of Guan Yusheng.
Mu Cheng remained calm. He said, "Brother Dao is indeed extraordinary. Unfortunately, you can't lock me up for long. The upper world is calling me. This is the rule of heaven and earth. Brother Dao is powerful, but he can't control the entire heaven and earth."
Lin Qianxing ignored Mu Cheng and said to Guan Yusheng, "It's your turn, get to work."
Guan Yusheng came back to his senses and nodded quickly, then covered Mu Cheng's head with his hands and spit out some tiny tentacles from his palms.
Looking at those tentacles, Mu Cheng had a bad feeling.
Phew~!
The next moment, all the tentacles attached to Mu Cheng's head.
Mu Cheng showed a look of horror and said, "He is actually... half a step to the fourth level..."
Before he finished speaking, Guan Yusheng had already absorbed the corresponding knowledge from Mu Cheng's head.
What Guan Yusheng mastered was not low-level means like soul searching. This was the ultimate power of the Tao that he had touched as a third-level [Physician].
It is his reliance for stepping into the fourth level.
In other words, it is supernatural power.
Those tentacles are reconstructions of his flesh particles and can easily simulate the particles in Mu Cheng's body and read the desired information from his body.
And theoretically speaking, as long as Guan Yusheng wanted, he could change his appearance at will, shape any organ he had seen, no longer be a child, and transform into a three or five meter tall meat tank monster. Even his gender could be constructed at will, and being a man or a woman was not important to him.
His rejuvenation is only apparent.
Upon closer inspection, it was found that what he actually mastered was the principles of modifying the physical body.
After reading for about a quarter of an hour, the Taihe God in the front hall gradually calmed down, as if he was subdued by the strong men from the academy.
On Lin Qianxing's side, Mu Cheng, who had begun to roll his eyes, gradually turned into white light and disappeared.
"You ascended to heaven so soon? Tsk, what a pity." Lin Qianxing sighed and looked at Guan Yusheng and asked, "How much have you read?"
The tentacles on Guan Yusheng's palms disappeared. After closing his eyes for a while, he said, "Almost 70% of it. Although it's not complete, I have read all the information you want. It's just that the content is a bit huge. I had to build a few extra brains behind me to barely store it."
As he spoke, Guan Yusheng showed Lin Qianxing his back, which now had several new brains attached to it.
"Tsk, no wonder the academy wants to criticize you. You are so familiar with this. You must have used thousands of brains to research it." Lin Qianxing complained.
"A few thousand are not enough..." Guan Yusheng said in a low voice.
"The fact that you are still alive shows that the academy and the court are truly generous." Lin Qianxing said.
Guan Yusheng turned a deaf ear to him and just stared at Lin Qianxing with his big cute eyes, looking confused, as if he was not the one who said those words just now.
But under the high temperature of Lin Qianxing's [Sun Core], he failed in a second. He changed the subject and said, "Is this your 100% chance of winning?"
"Yes, it was impossible for me to lose from the beginning." Lin Qianxing said.
"Then why were you fighting him so fiercely at the beginning?" Guan Yusheng asked puzzledly.
"I just think that we should give him some hope, right? He has been planning for more than a thousand years, enduring humiliation, and working hard to finally make a breakthrough, but a random passerby jumps out and slaps him in the face. Wouldn't his Taoism heart be shattered instantly?" Lin Qianxing said.
That's what he said, but actually he wanted to see more of Mu Cheng's skills, so he didn't go all out at the beginning.
"The result is almost the same now." Guan Yusheng said to Lin Qianxing with a squint.
"At least it can be broken into pieces as complete as possible." Lin Qianxing shrugged.
