It's a coincidence that Xiao Chen and Ying Qiong became saints almost at the same time. (learn.ou.m)
But Yingqiong's physical changes were much greater than those of Xiao Chen. She was not a monk with a satin body. At the moment of sanctification, the physical body was successfully promoted to the first-level holy body, almost undergoing an earth-shaking sublimation.
Xiao Chen's physical body was already a second-level holy body. This promotion only raised his second-level holy body to its peak without breaking through, so no big change could be seen.
On the other hand, Ying Qiong's skin is as soft as water, her eyebrows are picturesque, and her grace is outstanding. Her noble aura in the past appears to be more holy and cannot be blasphemed, and her face is bright and beautiful.
Xiao Chen flipped his hand, and the Moon Shadow Knife appeared in his left hand. He looked at the opponent with a hint of fighting intent in his eyes.
The mysterious wooden umbrella appeared in Ying Qiong's jade hand. She held it tightly and pointed it at Xiao Chen, with a fighting spirit rising in her eyes.
The two of them don't really want to fight to the death, but they want to be promoted to Martial Saints and want to get familiar with this power as soon as possible. For each of them, both sides are obviously ideal opponents, and it is perfect to use them to test their strength at this moment.
There was a flash of lightning under his feet, and the Moon Shadow Sword in Xiao Chen's hand was unsheathed. The Heavenly Saint Principle behind him absorbed the spiritual energy everywhere in the world.
Under the transformation of the Purple Heavenly Saint Law, without any need to distinguish, it all merged into the power of thunder attribute, flowing in all directions in the body, like a great river, flowing endlessly.
"What a tyrannical force, and the speed between transitions is also unexpectedly fast."
Xiao Chen was overjoyed, and as he waved his hand, a large piece of purple sword light appeared, like lightning, radiating in all directions in the space.
clang!
Using the umbrella lightly, Ying Qiong hit the weak point of the knife accurately. The soft water-attribute power in her body moved slowly, and the water was silent, but it had an endless supply and continued power.
Xiao Chen raised his brows, said a good word in his heart, quickly turned around, and used the starting position of the Thunder Tribulation Sword Technique.
Purple brilliance shines from the center of the eyebrows, and the brilliance of will, combined with the violent thunder energy, forms an invisible force of great power, suppressing Yingqiong.
The blade fell, and the clouds in the sky also had lightning piercing the void. The sword was like thunder breaking through the sky, with great force.
Yingqiong didn't panic, and the umbrella in her hand suddenly opened with a bang. When the entire umbrella was fully unfolded, all the water-attribute aura behind her was taken away, leaving no trace behind.
The umbrella unfolded, and a thousand-meter-long circular water curtain formed a giant barrier, firmly covering Yingqiong inside.
If you look at it from a distance, the circular water curtain, standing diagonally in the air, is simply an extremely huge umbrella, unfolding together with the umbrella in Yingqiong's hand.
The violent power contained in Xiao Chen's knife struck the circular water curtain and immediately dispersed, forming streaks of lightning that crackled and flickered.
Xiao Chen's sword was easily neutralized. Ying Qiong smiled slightly, turned her right hand, and immediately closed the wooden umbrella.
The umbrella-shaped water curtain in the void also suddenly closed in, but did not disappear. Ying Qiong pointed at the umbrella, and the closed water curtain was like a spear thrust towards Xiao Chen.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Chen's figure flashed and passed by him. The water curtain that gathered together fell to the ground and penetrated deeply.
In mid-air, the two people exchanged moves quickly, each familiar with the power after being promoted to a Martial Saint.
Compared with Xiao Chen, Ying Qiong looked equally calm, but she didn't have much chance to counterattack from beginning to end and was always trying her best to defend.
After fighting hundreds of moves, Xiao Chen used the Thunder Tribulation Sword Technique all over. The power of the three major thunder tribulations, namely the Earth Thunder Tribulation, the Sky Thunder Tribulation and the Divine Thunder Tribulation, was more than twice as powerful as before.
However, the umbrella in Yingqiong's hand obviously had a lot of history, and it was an incredible thing to use for defense. It connected the three major thunder tribulations, and she was still safe and sound.
Just when Xiao Chen was about to perform Double Dragon Playing with Pearls, Ying Qiong closed her umbrella, dropped it on the stone pillar below, and said with a smile: "If I don't fight anymore, I will really make a fool of myself if I continue to fight."
Xiao Chen sheathed his sword, stared at the umbrella, and said, "What's the name of this umbrella? It's a good umbrella."
"Why do you want to take advantage of my Tianlin Umbrella? You haven't practiced the Soft Water Art, so it's useless to give it to you." Ying Qiong leaned the wooden umbrella on her right shoulder and laughed softly.
Tianlin Umbrella, I don’t know what level of secret treasure it is, at least it is a primary king-level secret treasure. The previous Yingqiong seemed unable to activate the power of the secret treasure.
Now it seems that I haven't been able to fully activate the strength of this umbrella. Otherwise, it should be able to block 70% of my power.
Xiao Chen quickly analyzed in his mind that the children of the big families should all have king-level secret treasures. In the future, he seems to have to be careful when facing the descendants of the king sect and the king family.
Without answering Ying Qiong's words, Xiao Chen reached out and collected the seventy-two Qiankun flags scattered in all directions and buried deep in the ground, and quickly fell into Xiao Chen's hands.
Ying Qiong jumped down gently, landed in front of Xiao Chen, and said: "Hehe, let's go."
Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "I am going back to Haotian Sect, will you follow me back? Is it true that this winner really has no place for you?"
Ying Qiong asked strangely: "Return to Haotian Sect? Are you so anxious to become a saint? Isn't it because of the Stigmata Monument that appears every ten years and is about to be opened in half a month? Why are you going back like this?"
"The Stigmata Monument? Aojiao, what is that?"
When Xiao Chen heard these three words for the first time, he couldn't help but feel confused and asked about Aojiao.
"The Stigma Monument is about to be opened? It seems that Xiao Chen, you may not be able to go back in a short time. The Stigmata Monument is erected on the long Kunlun Mountains. It has existed in ancient times. It appears every ten years. As long as you can have your name engraved on it, you are eligible to enter.”
"There are many treasures inside, and if you fail to fight for them, your life will not be in danger. At most, you will be teleported out. No matter how unlucky you are, you can still get a few better holy treasures."
"Only low-level martial saints are allowed to have their names engraved on them. Whether they can be engraved on them is another matter. Having said that, this stele will last forever. Being able to have names engraved on it is also recognized by top warriors. glory."
Xiao Chen became thoughtful after hearing Aojiao's explanation. He originally planned to find a way to teleport back to the Cangqiong Realm after returning to Haotian Sect.
Let go of some past events, meet old friends, and then focus on martial arts without any worries, and strive to achieve the realm of the emperor.
Unexpectedly, he happened to encounter the appearance of the Stigmata Monument, which made Xiao Chen hesitate.
Ao Jiao encouraged: "Go ahead. The Thunder Emperor also engraved his name on it back then, but it was listed with the Qing Emperor's name. Don't you want to try, at what height can you engrave your name?"
"Those peerless monsters from all races who have settled in the semi-saint realm for so many years must have become saints by the opportunity of receiving the Divine Spring of Heavenly Dew. The appearance of the Stigmata Monument will definitely attract them all from all races."
"The most important thing is that there are spiritual veins in it. Look at the laurel tree in the fairy ring. It will take at least three hundred years to mature. With a few first-order spiritual veins, it will definitely mature in less than three to five years. "
The last sentence completely moved Xiao Chen. If he competes for spiritual veins outside, he will at least have to face competition from grandmaster-level martial saints. There is no hope at all.
If there is really a spiritual vein in this Stigma Monument, Xiao Chen will still be confident as long as he faces a martial saint of the same level.
Seeing Xiao Chen being silent, Ying Qiong thought of something and said, "You have only been in Kunlun for two years, and you haven't heard of the Stigma Monument. It's not very strange."
Xiao Chen denied: "I have also heard about the St. Mark Monument, but you are showing up so arrogantly, are you not afraid of being known by the family?"
Ying Qiong smiled sadly and said: "The struggle between big families is not as straightforward as you think. When I meet Ying Fan, I might be closer than usual."
Xiao Chen frowned slightly, the meaning behind his words was that he actually wanted to take this opportunity to say goodbye. With this woman's intelligence, she should be able to understand that she doesn't want to get into unnecessary trouble.
"Let's go. The Kunlun Mountains stretch across the Mysterious Territory and stretch endlessly for who knows how many miles. Without me to lead the way, even if you ask around, you may not be able to find the location of the Stigmata Monument in half a month."
A sly look flashed in Ying Qiong's eyes, and a faint smile appeared on her cheeks.
"Don't ask me, it's been so many years, how can I still remember the way? And the Holy Mark Monument, the general Martial Emperor really doesn't know where it is, so you still have to walk with her on this road."
In the fairy ring, Ao Jiao's very innocent words destroyed Xiao Chen's last hope.
