A cultivator must follow the way of heaven in action and go against heaven in practice, so as to have a greater chance of surviving the heavenly calamity and ascending to heaven in broad daylight. The cycle of cause and effect is endless, and the rise and fall of a country has its destiny. Following the way of heaven means following the will of heaven and helping heaven. From the perspective of Taoist practice, Xuanxin's words are not wrong.
However, for Meng Xiang, who grew up in the real society, especially as a grassroots person who did not believe in fate and worked hard to climb up the social ladder, he naturally felt that Xuan Xin's fallacy was quite disgusting.
"The destiny of heaven is not something that a demon like you can understand. I don't want to explain it, and I can't explain it." The rays of light disappeared in the blink of an eye, and then the sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder.
The sky changed color, lightning and thunder roared above everyone's head, frightening the Shu army. The general gave an order, and they retreated without caring about the remaining enemy soldiers. Soon, the whole mountain was left with only corpses scattered all over the ground and Meng Xiang looking up at the sky.
In the distance, an old man with white hair and a long beard, wearing a dark Taoist robe, slowly floated over. At first glance, the old man looked like an ordinary elderly man. If he was not suspended in mid-air, anyone would probably think he was so frail that even a slightly strong wind would blow him down.
Meng Xiang held the Tianjing Mother Sword in his hand, and his spiritual light and holy energy were ready to burst out at any time.
Xuan Xin looked down from above, raised his right hand, and a silver sword turned in his palm. The sword light gradually spread, as if reflecting the sun's rays, shooting out white rays in the dark clouded sky.
"Shua... The light was like a precious sword that could cut hair like mud. Wherever it went, it seemed to scrape open space. The white light swept across a small hill not far away, and the hill was cut in half like tofu.
Meng Xiang's heart trembled, and he saw a dazzling white light above him. The strong sense of crisis made him panic and at a loss. He instinctively burst out with holy energy, and the effectiveness of the uncontrollable Kaio-ken was instantly increased to the limit.
Meng Xiang waved the Tianjing, and it collided with the white light. In an instant, he felt that the white light turned from invisible to real in an instant, like an iron pillar weighing tens of millions of pounds pressing down. The ground where he was standing broke into pieces with a "pop", and the soles of his feet were pressed into the ground for nearly 30 centimeters.
Meng Xiang was really frightened by Xuan Xin's casual attack, which was so powerful. If he hadn't instinctively increased his strength, this attack would have made Meng Xiang unable to stand.
The silver light converged as the silver sword in Xuan Xin's hand stopped rotating. He was full of doubt and slowly descended under the yellow light. He was more than 20 meters away from Meng Xiang. He asked in surprise: "You... What kind of power are you using? Although I have never seen your power, it is definitely from the righteous path. The magic weapon in your hand contains a power that has not yet been unlocked, but this magic weapon is full of kindness. What kind of creature are you, a demon?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. As the saying goes, people with different ideals cannot work together. Watch my moves." Meng Xiang knew that the opportunity was not to be missed. Xuan Xin was more than 20 meters above the ground at this time, just in time to launch a surprise attack. He and Xuan Xin had been standing on opposite sides since the moment they received the side story mission. This was a life-and-death battle worth 7,000 points.
Meng Xiang concentrated the holy energy on the soles of his feet and stepped on the ground more than ten times in an instant. The force compressed on the ground made him fly into the sky like a rocket. The Tianjing mother sword in his hand had been replaced by a sub-sword, and the green sword tip stabbed at Xuan Xin.
"Dang" the tip of the sword pierced a yellow bronze mirror. With Meng Xiang's eyesight, he could not see when this bronze mirror appeared in front of Xuan Xin. It seemed that this bronze mirror had always been in front of Xuan Xin, but it could not be seen by the naked eye before.
The Tianjing Sword could not pierce the bronze mirror, but the powerful impact caused the bronze mirror and Xuanxin to fly out of control into the sky. Meng Xiang raised his right arm, and a dark blue spirit bullet condensed in his right palm. As soon as the spirit bullet left Meng Xiang's palm, it expanded into an energy ball with a diameter of more than 1 meter, and with a "whoosh" sound, it shot out towards Xuanxin in the sky.
“Boom…” A burst of thunder drilled into Meng Xiang’s ears, and then a huge bolt of lightning appeared from the dark clouds. This lightning seemed to have been aimed at Meng Xiang in advance and hit him right on the spot.
Meng Xiang was in mid-air, powerless, and could only use his spiritual defense to block the lightning. He felt his whole body numb, and the invisible lightning hit him like a heavy hammer, almost breaking his tempered and demonized body, and then he fell to the ground like a kite with its string cut off.
"Boom" as the ground exploded, Xuanxin in the sky was hit by the spiritual bullet, and a blue light burst out in the dark sky.
Meng Xiang climbed out from the ground with difficulty. Even with the spiritual defense, he still felt numb and tingling all over. His clothes were almost singed and his hair stood up from the electric shock.
The terrifying thunder and lightning made Meng Xiang involuntarily wipe the sweat from his forehead with his hand, and looked up at Xuan Xin who was directly hit by the spiritual bullet.
Xuan Xin's clothes were still white, his white hair and long beard were blowing in the wind, as if nothing had happened. However, Meng Xiang, with his sharp eyes, watched very carefully. Xuan Xin's breathing became slightly faster, and there was even blood at the corner of his mouth. Obviously, the spiritual bullet was not useless.
Xuan Xin's left hand had raised a small green flag at some point, and he threw the flag down, which pierced the ground as fast as a flash. Meng Xiang was alert, not knowing what tricks the powerful person who transcends the tribulation in the sky was going to play.
Suddenly, the earth shook and cracks appeared on the flat mountain. Dozens of tons of broken rocks seemed to have life and all smashed towards Meng Xiang.
The torn ground greatly reduced Meng Xiang's range of movement. Cracks covered the entire mountain, and from a distance, they were crisscrossed. Although there was still a foothold, in order to move quickly on the ground, he had to jump over one crack after another, which undoubtedly prevented Meng Xiang from fully utilizing his speed.
Meng Xiang gritted his teeth, switched to the Sky Crystal Mother Sword, and chopped off the boulders one by one like cutting tofu. However, the boulders were too big, and even if they were cut into two pieces, each piece still weighed more than 10 tons. Meng Xiang chopped off the boulders, which also doubled the number of boulders that were thrown at him.
Meng Xiang made up his mind, put away the Tianjing, and condensed powerful spiritual holy energy in his fists. He shouted loudly, and punched out several times with his fists, each punch shot out more than 10 scattered spiritual energy.
The power of the shotgun aura released through the "Micro-Explosion" was doubled. No matter how big the rock was, it would be blasted into pieces in an instant when facing hundreds of shotgun auras. The shotgun auras shot up into the sky like hundreds of blue missiles, densely packed. Xuan Xin in the sky had a stern face and took out a small golden flag from his arms. The small flag immediately transformed into an armored warrior over 20 meters tall. The armored warrior swung the axe in his hand and swept it towards the shotgun aura, instantly sweeping away all the shotgun auras that were coming towards him.
Meng Xiang was secretly shocked. After several days of training in the main god space, he had already mastered the "Micro Unloading", "Micro Explosion" and "Micro Insight" of the 4th level of the potential lock. In terms of combat power, it has increased by 10% to 20% compared to when he fought with Li Si. Every strike of his shook out the strength of his whole body, including the 100-power Kaio-ken. Every strike was enough to split mountains and shatter rocks.
However, even so, he was still barely able to maintain an even balance with the old man in the sky. Did the powerful person who had transcended the tribulation still have any strength left? Meng Xiang couldn't guess, but one thing was certain, Meng Xiang had already used all his skills except for the initial stage of spiritual gathering.
In other words, if Meng Xiang did not use his spiritual power, he could at best draw with Xuan Xin.
The armored warrior in the sky roared like a wild beast, and the giant axe, several meters wide, aimed at Meng Xiang and rushed towards him. The distance of hundreds of meters was reached in an instant, and the strong wind made it difficult for Meng Xiang to breathe.
The huge axe blade slashed on the air, making a sound like the "rustling" of waves. It seemed that this axe could cut through the space.
The ground where Meng Xiang was standing was only a few meters wide, with cracks on both sides exceeding 10 meters. He could only jump to avoid them. He did not want to retreat, and he would not retreat. He flipped his hand and raised the Diamond Axe.
After Meng Xiang became a demon, his physique and strength increased several times. Moreover, he broke through the 4th level of potential lock and possessed the skill of "Micro-burst". The weight of the Diamond Axe had little effect on his speed.
Meng Xiang held the axe handle with both hands and charged directly towards the axe blade of the armored warrior from bottom to top.
Force against force, such a battle made Xuan Xin in the sky change color, having lived for nearly a thousand years, his knowledge already encompassed everything, and his insights were even more extraordinary. He thought that after reaching the realm of transcending tribulation, he would follow the way of heaven and know everything about this world.
But he had never seen such a powerful creature before. Meng Xiang's physical strength was beyond his comprehension...
"Boom" the axe blade of the giant axe shattered like glass, and the armored warrior was blown away for dozens of meters. With a "pop" sound, the small golden flag fell to the ground.
Meng Xiang used the extremely powerful physical attack force of the Diamond Axe to smash the armored warrior's axe, and at the same time used "micro-unloading force" to transmit the impact force of the axe to the ground. However, the armored warrior's strength was far beyond his imagination. The ground was overwhelmed and the dozens of square meters of ground where he stood shattered. He had no power to rely on and fell deep into the dark ground crack...
