Chapter 76: Testing the Qi Gong

"Finally, Aunt has appeared."

Yang Qi saw the woman who had appeared and couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement deep in his heart. Although he had been separated from Yang Susu for over ten years, he still vaguely remembered the little girl who used to feed him.

The extraordinary woman before him still had a faint trace of her former self in her brows and eyes, allowing Yang Qi to instantly recognize her as his aunt, Yang Susu.

"The Crown Prince's favored person? You mean Yun Hailan, right."

Yang Susu looked at Ouyang Hu: "There's nothing great about her; she's just relying on the Crown Prince's favor. Ouyang Hu, you attempted to harm my family, and I won't take your life, but you must leave behind an arm to let you go."

"What?"

Ouyang Hu's face turned pale with shock, looking at Yang Susu in disbelief: "You dare! Yang Susu, I'm telling you, we are all students of the Elite Academy. Do you dare to be so ruthless? Aren't you afraid of the academy's punishment? Try it today, and I'll make you regret it."

"Enough talk, leave your arm behind." Yang Susu suddenly drew her sword, and a cold, piercing sword aura shot straight at Ouyang Hu's right shoulder, showing no mercy, truly intending to sever his arm.

Clang!

Ouyang Hu's fierce appearance was fully revealed, and a tiger claw appeared on his palm, formed by true qi. "Beast King Qi Gong, Roaring Tiger!"

True qi burst from his body, forming images of tigers, leopards, wolves, snakes, eagles, and bears... A picture of a running tiger rose from his back.

He blocked the sword aura with one palm.

However, Yang Susu's sword aura was ever-changing, with ice and fire appearing on it. A field of ice that could freeze a thousand miles and a field of raging flames collided, moving like the yin and yang of the Taiji.

In an instant, Yang Susu's sword technique reached its peak, and the ice and fire formed a "Taiji Ice Fire Diagram," nearly reaching the Dao.

"Void Slash Ghost, Yin and Yang Drive Spirits, Taiji True Words. Ouyang Hu, taste my newly cultivated Ghost-Slaying Spirit-Driving Sword."

Buzz!

The sword aura cut through the corridor, splitting the air on all sides. Even the air around Yang Susu's sword was cut into blocks of air bricks.

The Ice Fire Taiji Diagram sword aura directly broke through the "Beast King Qi Gong," forcing Ouyang Hu to retreat, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Both being experts at the Life Seizing Realm, Ouyang Hu was a newly ascended one, and his true qi within his body was not yet stable. In Yang Qi's eyes, Ouyang Hu was far inferior to Chu Tiange.

However, a worm that is a hundred feet long does not stiffen immediately when it dies. Just as Ouyang Hu's Beast King Qi Gong was broken by Yang Susu, a human-shaped true qi burst out from his body, directly reaching Yang Qi's side.

This human-shaped true qi was extremely mysterious, standing three zhang tall, covered in animal fur, with a tiger's head, resembling a beast god. It approached Yang Qi with a terrifying aura.

"Yang Susu, I make you hesitate. If you dare to sever my arm, I'll kill your nephew. Beast King Qi Gong, Tiger King True Body, Human-shaped True Qi!"

Ouyang Hu sneered.

"You dare!"

Yang Susu was startled and immediately wanted to return to rescue him, but she heard Yang Qi's long cry: "Aunt, don't worry about me. Just deal with Ouyang Hu. This small human-shaped true qi can't do anything to me."

As he spoke, he grabbed with his five fingers, and a vortex of qi expanded, like a spiral galaxy in the sky. "Invincible King Fist, Six Forms Combined."

The tiger-headed human-shaped true qi beast god was directly sucked into the vortex, letting out a惨叫, transforming into a torrent of true qi, which Yang Qi absorbed into his own meridians, entering the "Hell Furnace" embryo in his dantian, where it was suppressed.

Originally, foreign true qi was like poison, and once it entered the body, it had to be expelled to avoid conflict with one's own true qi, which could be very harmful.

However, now that Yang Qi had reached the Qi Master realm and had refined all the life essences of the thunder elephants, he had cast the "Hell Furnace" embryo deep in his dantian. This could temporarily store all foreign true qi, waiting for the furnace to truly form, at which point it could be fully refined and converted into his own true qi.

This situation was incomprehensible, worthy of a divine-level qi gong.

Yang Susu originally thought that Yang Qi would struggle, but she didn't expect him to effortlessly nullify the Beast King Qi Gong's human-shaped avatar with just a gesture.

She had been through countless battles and dangers, and could make quick decisions. The sword light turned, and the sword aura oscillated at high speed, suddenly disappearing. The next moment, blood flashed, and Ouyang Hu let out a惨叫, his right arm being cleanly severed.

Blood gushed from Ouyang Hu's body, and his face twisted in pain. However, with his deep qi gong, he immediately stopped the bleeding, grabbed his severed arm, and his body shot backward: "Yang Susu, you are ruthless! This enmity is irreconcilable. You and your nephew be careful. I won't let this go easily."

Experts at the Life Seizing Realm had powerful qi gong. Even if one arm was cut off, they could still move their internal true qi and escape at lightning speed. To kill them, one had to cut off their head or break their dantian. Another method was to directly shatter their meridians, causing them to rupture inch by inch.

"A waste of a person, with a severed arm and damaged meridians, he will never be able to advance again." Yang Susu watched Ouyang Hu's retreating figure, shook her head, and then turned to look at Yang Qi, her eyes filled with surprise: "Qi'er, I didn't expect you to have grown so much. From your father's letter, I already know everything that happened. You were deceived by Yun Hailan, stole the Dragon Subduing Pill, had your martial arts completely destroyed, and then were struck by lightning, gaining a great fortune. I thought your qi gong was just average, but it has reached such a profound level?"

"Aunt..."

Yang Qi nodded, about to say something, but Yang Susu waved her hand: "This is not the place to talk. Let's go to my cultivation cave."

As she spoke, Yang Qi saw a sword light flash, enveloping him in a long rainbow. Then, they moved at a speed faster than sound, and soon, the scene brightened, and they arrived at a solitary temple.

This temple was built on a lake, surrounded by vast waters, spanning a thousand acres. In the center of the lake, a grand temple was constructed, with brilliant light shining from its top. The walls were inlaid with various gems and beast cores.

The sword light disappeared, and Yang Qi and Yang Susu stood side by side at the top of the temple. Looking into the distance, they could see that the entire area was filled with lakes, with temples on the water, seemingly prepared for core disciples.

"Qi'er, this is the temple of the Elite Academy students. Each student has their own temple as a cultivation cave. The water below is not ordinary water but underground spiritual springs, nourishing all things, the essence of the earth, the milk of the earth. The temple is built from solid source spirit stones, making it extremely sturdy and beneficial for cultivation. The top of the temple is a royal qi array. This is also a cave. If outsiders attack, I can activate the spiritual energy from the lake and the ground to form a killing array, capable of dealing with three to five experts at the Life Seizing Realm. They won't be able to attack. Of course, in the Heaven Position Academy, no one is so bold as to come and harass."

Yang Susu pointed out to Yang Qi: "Qi'er, since you are here, you can cultivate in my temple. The speed will be ten times faster than outside, and I can also check your cultivation progress to see when you can advance to the Life Seizing Realm. I saw you easily neutralize Ouyang Hu's qi gong, so your cultivation is not as simple as I imagined."

As she spoke, Yang Susu led Yang Qi into the cultivation room of the temple.

Indeed, Yang Qi felt the vast and powerful heavenly qi massaging his acupoints, making him feel so comfortable that he wanted to lie down.

"Aunt, a temple is fixed for only one person to cultivate. If I cultivate here, it will definitely affect your resources. Besides, my cultivation speed is fast enough, and I need to train in a harsh environment for a long time to make my true qi pure."

Yang Qi shook his head.

"Oh? You have such an understanding, that's good, that's good." Yang Susu's eyes flickered with surprise, "Qi'er, what is your cultivation level? Show me a couple of moves. A few days ago, your father wrote to me about some of your deeds, such as reforming the family and subduing Yang Xingshi and the old lady Yan. This must have required absolute means... I originally planned to return home, but I have been very busy in recent years and can't spare the time."

"Aunt, do you want to see my cultivation level?"

Yang Qi's face showed a smile. He was most proud of his cultivation and had nothing to hide from his aunt. "But Aunt, don't tell anyone. I have been hiding my strength, and if it gets out, it might cause a stir in the academy."

"Stir in the academy?" Yang Susu was initially stunned, then laughed: "The Heaven Position Academy won't be stirred. There are millions of students in the academy, many of whom have had great fortunes and hidden many powerful techniques. To the academy, they are just a drop in the ocean."

"Is that so? Aunt, then please watch carefully!"

Yang Qi suddenly roared, and his true qi exploded behind him. The entire temple trembled, and countless hellish beings and divine beasts emerged from the depths of the earth. It seemed as if a gate to hell had opened behind him, and countless demons and ghostly claws reached out.

"What?"

Seeing this aura, Yang Susu's face instantly changed, and the sword light in her hand continuously transformed, forming layers of sword nets that enveloped Yang Qi.

"Great Lawless Sword Net, Spanning Heaven and Earth." She seemed to be displaying her ultimate technique: "Qi'er, this is my killing move, forming a net with the sword, weaving the Great Lawless, a total of eighty-one layers. If you can break free, it will show that you have the strength of the Life Seizing Realm!"

"What's the difficulty in that?"

Yang Qi tore with both hands!

"Break it!"
