Chapter 49

"Stop blocking me! Even if I can't beat him, I'll exhaust him to death!" Meng Jing shouted in anger.

That Ma Wei is really despicable.

"Anger won't solve the problem."

Jiang Ping'an activated a barrier, took out a bottle, and handed it to Meng Jing.

Seeing the bottle, Meng Jing asked in confusion, "Isn't this the pill I gave you? You didn't take it?"

"I have another one, and I've already taken it." Jiang Ping'an opened the bottle, and a rainbow light illuminated the room.

"Another one? Don't think you can fool me like a child!" Meng Jing didn't believe him.

"Really," Jiang Ping'an said.

"I don't believe it..."

Before Meng Jing could finish, Jiang Ping'an forcefully shoved the pill into her mouth.

Women are too talkative; this way is more straightforward.

Meng Jing grabbed her neck, eyes wide open, and shouted in anger, "You wooden block, what are you doing! This is the pill I gave you!"

"You becoming stronger will benefit me more, and besides, don't you want to beat that guy?"

Seeing that Meng Jing didn't believe he had another pill, Jiang Ping'an pretended he hadn't taken it and used other reasons to persuade her.

Meng Jing was about to say something when a rainbow light started to emanate from her seven orifices.

"Hmm~"

Meng Jing made a strange sound, feeling a strange force massaging her entire body, with terrifying lightning flashing around her.

A bolt of lightning struck Jiang Ping'an, and his expression changed.

It hurt a bit.

Hiding in the corner, Jiang Ping'an took out a few pieces of cake and quickly filled his stomach.

Meng Jing would need three days to digest the pill, so he needed to stay by her side to prevent any accidents.

Taking advantage of the time, Jiang Ping'an took out the "Wuji Fist" technique given to him by Xia Qing.

This was a special technique with low offensive power, mainly focusing on using the opponent's force against them.

After successful cultivation, one could convert the opponent's attack into their own.

Although Xia Qing didn't recommend this technique, Jiang Ping'an found it very suitable for himself.

His consciousness entered the jade slip, and a large amount of information appeared in his mind.

"This technique was created by me after studying the supreme divine art, 'Yin-Yang Heart Sutra.' It involves the exchange of yin and yang, converting the enemy's strength into your own..."

Jiang Ping'an began to study with great dedication.

The strange phenomenon around Meng Jing lasted for three days. If not for the barrier in the room, it would have caused a huge commotion.

Finally, she opened her eyes again, her beautiful eyes flashing with lightning.

"Damn fatty, watch me beat you to death!"

Although Meng Jing's cultivation didn't advance, her aura changed dramatically, making people feel uneasy.

"Change your clothes before going out."

Jiang Ping'an suddenly spoke from the corner.

Meng Jing was taken aback and looked down at her body.

She realized that her clothes had been burned to ashes by the lightning.

"Ahh! Wooden block!"

Meng Jing blushed and rushed into the bathroom.

Jiang Ping'an was puzzled. Why was she cursing him? Was his reminder wrong?

Forget it, no need to pay attention to her.

Old Li said that women are incomprehensible creatures.

After a while, Meng Jing came out of the bathroom, her face red, looking like she wanted to eat Jiang Ping'an.

"Why did you force the pill on me!"

"You becoming stronger will benefit me more, and besides, you need to get a spot to contact your mother."

Jiang Ping'an slowly got up, stretching his sore body.

Thinking of her mother, Meng Jing's anger subsided, and after a long time, she finally spoke:

"You don't need to do this in the future. I'm stronger than you, and if you do anything I don't allow, I'll beat you."

She waved her small fists as a threat.

"Okay, let's go eat. I'm hungry."

Jiang Ping'an replied casually.

"I'm not hungry. I took a辟谷丹 (grain-replacement pill) earlier, so I don't need to eat for a month. I'm going to beat that fatty!"

Meng Jing, who had a long memory, grabbed her knife and rushed out.

Jiang Ping'an shook his head helplessly and followed her out of the room.

Not far away was a place to eat, where they provided meals and grain-replacement pills.

Everyone cherished their time, so few people ate, except for those who needed to replenish their energy. Most preferred the grain-replacement pills.

Jiang Ping'an walked over and sat down. "I'll have a monster leg."

"Sure."

The chef cut a leg for Jiang Ping'an.

While eating, Jiang Ping'an looked at the mountain.

"Fatso! Come out! I challenge you!"

Meng Jing shouted, her voice echoing, startling many people.

"Miss Meng is challenging Ma Wei again."

"Ma Wei is a genius of the Ethereal Sect. Miss Meng is too young and awakened too late. They are not on the same level now."

"Too impulsive. Challenging him will only result in getting beaten and possibly injured."

Meng Jing and Ma Wei were both not simple. One was a Thunder Spirit Body, the other a genius of the Ethereal Sect. Their battle attracted many geniuses who were not in combat.

However, many didn't have high hopes for Meng Jing, as she had awakened too late.

Ma Wei came out of his room and mocked Meng Jing:

"I thought you were going to hide forever. I was planning to go up a few levels to give you a chance to advance."

"Stop talking nonsense, let's start!!"

Meng Jing activated the power in her body, and at that moment, a cloud of lightning appeared in the sky.

"Rumble~"

The lightning cloud drifted over, thunder and lightning filling the air, making the sky dark and the entire mountain peak covered in a terrifying aura.

The geniuses on the first three levels of the mountain, who were in the middle of cultivation, sensed the aura and came out, looking up at the black lightning cloud in the sky.

Xia Qing was in her room handling official business. When the dark cloud appeared, she paused, a look of joy on her face.

"This is..."

Her body instantly disappeared from the spot.

The mocking look on Ma Wei's face disappeared, and he looked at the lightning cloud in the sky with shock.

This woman actually summoned heavenly lightning!

"Strike you to death!!"

Meng Jing shouted, activating all the power in her body. Lightning bolts suddenly struck down, rocks shattered, and trees turned to ashes, like a scene of the end of the world.

Ma Wei's face changed, and his body transformed into several figures, quickly dodging and running several hundred meters in one step.

This was the Ethereal Sect's top-level movement technique, "Divine Void Step," known for its bizarre speed.

Although being struck by lightning wouldn't kill him, it would definitely hurt.

Moreover, there were thousands of lightning bolts!

Everyone was stunned by the terrifying scene, and those still in battle also stopped, staring at the terrifying sight.

The oppressive aura made it hard for them to breathe.

Is this a Foundation Establishment cultivator? To be able to summon such terrifying lightning!

However, the phenomenon didn't last long. After three breaths, Meng Jing's power was exhausted, and the lightning cloud in the sky dissipated.

"I'm exhausted. I didn't strike you to death this time, but after I replenish my energy, I'll continue to blow you up!"

Meng Jing wiped the sweat from her forehead and went down to the 26th floor to find Jiang Ping'an for a meal.

She still couldn't beat Ma Wei, but she wanted to scare him.

The lightning cloud came and went quickly, leaving many cultivators stunned for a while.

"Damn! Is this a Thunder Spirit Body? Too terrifying!"

"I heard that only strong cultivators can transcend the lightning tribulation, but Miss Meng can already summon lightning!"

"Although it lasted a short time, her cultivation is low. When her realm advances, how terrifying will this Thunder Spirit Body be?"

The geniuses on the mountain were all shocked, even the three geniuses on the first three floors looked at Meng Jing with serious expressions.

Ma Wei, the person involved, looked as if he had seen a demon, his face ashen.

Although he wasn't injured, that wasn't the point. The point was Meng Jing's terrifying talent.

He seemed to have provoked a monster.

Ma Wei's face changed several times, and he finally decided not to provoke her further to avoid increasing the conflict.

Ma Wei began to challenge higher levels.
