Chapter 16

As the battle raged on, two long whistles echoed in response!

Hong Qigong and Huang Yaoshi both emerged from their meditative states at the same time!

Inside Hong Qigong’s dantian, a golden five-clawed dragon was swallowing clouds and exhaling mist!

In Huang Yaoshi’s dantian, however, a先天八卦 (先天八卦) was slowly rotating!

Hong Qigong glanced at the two, and although he had always been displeased with Ouyang Feng’s character, he highly acknowledged his talent and martial arts cultivation!

He sighed, “I never thought that this old poison would have made such great progress. He is truly a rare martial arts genius!”

Huang Yaoshi snorted lightly, “Wang Chongyang has made even greater progress. I had planned to challenge him after this period of seclusion, but Ouyang Feng has taken the lead!”

Hong Qigong laughed heartily, “Are you feeling itchy? Why don’t we play a few rounds first!”

Huang Yaoshi drew out his jade flute, “I have seen Hong brother’s sword skills and the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, but I have never seen the Beggar Sect’s Dog Beating Staff Technique, which I deeply regret!”

Hong Qigong was also an extremely proud person. In the original story, he said that this staff technique should not be used unless it was a matter of utmost importance for the sect.

Even when he faced Ouyang Feng on a large ship at sea, he did not use it, as he was confident that he would not lose to Ouyang Feng with or without the staff technique, which led to his eventual ambush by Ouyang Feng!

Xiao Ran found this to be an extremely peculiar idea!

Was he afraid that using it too much would expose his technique?

But if it could be so easily exposed, it wouldn’t be such an extraordinary skill.

Hong Qigong drew out his Dog Beating Staff, and Huang Yaoshi’s jade flute stabbed forward, the true qi inside the flute oscillating to produce a pleasant sound, forming a beautiful melody.

When Hong Qigong heard the flute sound, his head slightly ached, and he called out, “Not good!”

“What a remarkable talent, Huang Yaoshi! After refining his spirit orifices, he has integrated the Tide of the Green Sea melody into his Jade Flute Sword Technique, truly a marvel!”

Hong Qigong roared loudly, and this roar was like a thunderclap on a clear day, continuously exploding and suppressing the elusive flute sound!

Xiao Ran’s heart skipped a beat as he listened, and he was shocked, “Is this sound attack?

Is it ultrasonic or infrasonic? A few more times, and my heart won’t be able to take it!”

Although he thought so, Xiao Ran’s internal organs were not so easily damaged.

However, the disciples and servants of the Five Greats could not withstand it and retreated far away!

Hong Qigong’s roar suppressed the flute sound, and his Dog Beating Staff, as soft as silk, entangled Huang Yaoshi’s jade flute, completely different from his powerful palm technique!

Perhaps because of this, he rarely used the Dog Beating Staff Technique!

The staff itself carried a coiling force, generating a green qi that wrapped layer by layer around the jade flute!

With just this move, he had reached the edge of the fourth level of qi cultivation!

Huang Yaoshi’s pupils contracted, and he no longer dared to underestimate him!

He felt that he had gained a lot from this period of seclusion, even daring to challenge Wang Chongyang again, but he did not expect Hong Qigong to be on par with him!

Clang...

Several sword qi beams shot out from the flute holes, severing the coiling qi on Hong Qigong’s Dog Beating Staff!

Xiao Ran’s eyes widened again, “Oh my!

I was just saying, and these two have already reached the edge of the fourth level of qi cultivation.

Indeed, they are all formidable among the many martial artists in the world!”

Seeing their performance, Ouyang Feng was startled, “I thought only I had reached the edge of the fourth level of qi cultivation, but it seems these two have as well.

I no longer need to hide my true strength, as it won’t have the element of surprise anymore!”

With this thought, he changed his palm technique, and a palm strike sent out a clump of dark green true qi, forming a dark green snake that twisted and opened its mouth to “bite” Wang Chongyang!

This was the Spirit Snake Fist that Ouyang Feng had been refining, using true qi to form the snake, which was much stronger than using his hands!

If Wang Chongyang was bitten, he would definitely suffer from the tearing effect!

The snake-shaped qi dissipated as soon as it left his hand, only maintaining its shape when attached to his hand, so Ouyang Feng was not yet at the fourth level of qi cultivation, but had only reached the edge of the fourth stage of condensing true qi!

Wang Chongyang laughed loudly, “I didn’t expect Ouyang brother to have reached this level! I can no longer hold back!”

He struck back with a palm, and a pure white true qi hand shot out, colliding with Ouyang Feng’s snake-shaped qi. The snake, which could shatter trees and rocks, was dispersed like a bubble by the hand!

Ouyang Feng retreated three steps, his face filled with shock as he looked at Wang Chongyang!

“You, you have reached the fourth level of qi cultivation?”

The true qi hand forming and detaching from the body was indeed a sign of breaking through to the fourth level of qi cultivation!

Wang Chongyang’s cultivation had always been at least half a level higher than the other four of the Five Greats, and he had been at the peak of the third level of qi cultivation for many years.

So, he was able to break through to the fourth level in one go, condensing true qi into form and transforming it into a powerful force that could attack from several yards away.

At this, Huang Yaoshi and Hong Qigong also stopped, realizing that they could not surpass Wang Chongyang no matter what!

At this moment, another long laugh echoed, and Duan Zhi Xing, the Duan Royal, walked over with a ruddy complexion and a sharp aura emanating from his body!

In his dantian, a large sun rose and shone upon the world!

He said, “I have successfully refined my spirit orifices, and by a stroke of luck, I have deduced one of the six incomplete sections of the Six Pulse Sword Technique, the Shaoshang Sword. I thought this time it would be my turn to claim the title of the best on Mount Hua.

I didn’t expect Wang Chongyang to have broken through to the fourth level of qi cultivation. Although I have mastered the Shaoshang Sword, my cultivation is not as deep and enduring as Brother Chongyang’s, and I can only use it for a few strikes.

It seems that even if everyone has made a breakthrough this time, Wang Chongyang will still be the supreme on the peak of Mount Hua!

The name of the Central Sage cannot be shaken!”

Duan Yu, in the past, could use the Six Pulse Sword Technique without worrying about the cost, thanks to the incredibly powerful Beiming Divine Skill and his good fortune.

Ouyang Feng looked at Duan Zhi Xing, seeing that he claimed to have mastered the legendary Six Pulse Sword Technique and still acknowledged his inferiority to Wang Chongyang, which showed Wang Chongyang’s overwhelming power. At this moment, Xiao Ran said, “The gap between the third and fourth levels of qi cultivation is even greater than you think!

A small difference in level can be equivalent to the strength of a dozen people!

If you don’t believe me, try attacking Brother Wang together. With this combat experience, you will understand what the fourth level of qi cultivation is, and you will break through faster!”

Although Xiao Ran seemed to be setting up his friends, Wang Chongyang, despite his outward humility, was an extremely generous person!

He was already the best in the world, and now he had broken through another level, his spirit was soaring!

“That I shall do, and I will seek guidance from the four of you!”

Ouyang Feng had never been so lightly regarded in his life, and he laughed in anger!

He clenched his hands and charged at Wang Chongyang, a palm strike sending out a dark green palm wind with a sweet and pungent smell, the wind roaring like a beast!

The true qi forming technique he had just mastered was still imperfect and too draining, so it couldn’t be used frequently!

Wang Chongyang smiled and struck back, a true qi hand forming and flying out, colliding with the wind and dispersing it, then charging straight at Ouyang Feng.

Despite the overwhelming power, Ouyang Feng refused to dodge!

“I don’t believe I can’t take one palm!”

He roared, like a thunderclap, and two clumps of dark green true qi condensed in his hands, which he struck at Wang Chongyang’s white palm!

Boom...

Ouyang Feng felt as if his body had been ground by a mill, the true qi in his hands shattered, and he retreated seven steps.

His sleeves fluttered like butterflies!

The fourth level of qi cultivation is called the Condensing True Qi stage, where true qi undergoes a qualitative change, becoming true qi, or gong qi!

If the true qi at the third level of qi cultivation is like raw ore, then the true qi at the fourth level is like refined steel, incomparably stronger!

Hong Qigong and the others’ faces also changed, seeing Wang Chongyang’s overwhelming power.

If they didn’t catch up soon, they would fall behind.

As Xiao Ran said, to understand the fourth level of qi cultivation, they just needed to fight!
