Xiaozhao's left palm was a deep purple.
Amidst the rising aura, it seemed to coalesce into a real purple flame.
Wherever the flame reached, Xiao Sheng's aura instantly showed signs of disintegration!
Under the palm, he felt as if he were in a furnace, about to be reduced to ashes by the purple fire of the Doushui.
Along with the Seven Star Sword, it was one of the Eight Extremes of the Supreme, the orthodox martial art passed down from Guangcheng Mountain, the Doushui Palm!
Xiaozhao and Xiao Sheng both let out a light shout, and in addition to the Spirit Sword Bìlóng and Huirilun, each of them had a treasure light shining.
In that moment of aerial combat, each treasure burst with its own power, colliding with each other.
People in the valley looked up, seeing the sky shimmering with brilliant light, dazzling and spectacular.
Xiaozhao and Xiao Sheng, both adorned with treasures, instantly burst forth, attacking and defending in a flurry.
The power of the numerous treasures canceled each other out.
But Xiaozhao's left Doushui Palm, relentless, ultimately struck Xiao Sheng heavily!
Xiao Sheng let out a muffled groan, blood trickling from his mouth and nose, and his figure fell back, flying away.
The disciples of the Dàrì Holy Sect all cried out in shock, their faces ashen.
Xiao Sheng, a late-stage External Aura Master, had fought against Xiaozhao, a mid-stage External Aura Master, and ended up losing!
This result was even more shocking than Xiaozhao's two victories over Chao Yuanlong at the same level.
After all, Xiao Sheng was not just any late-stage External Aura Master; he was also a genius who could defeat mid-stage External Aura opponents even at the early stage!
In the previous confrontation with Chao Yuanlong in the Zhenlong Abyss, regardless of their actual strength, Xiaozhao had made Chao Yuanlong dare not use his weapon with just a word.
In a weaponless duel, both being young geniuses, they relied on their cultivation. But if weapons were used, how could Chao Yuanlong, a direct descendant of the Dàrì Holy Sect, compare with Xiaozhao, whose father was a major figure of Guangcheng Mountain?
Xiao Sheng, however, was different. He, like Xiaozhao, was adorned with treasures.
But at this moment, with their treasures mutually restraining each other, he was still defeated by Xiaozhao, who was at a higher level. The gap in cultivation was real and could not be denied.
Not to mention, Xiaozhao treated the barrier of cultivation as nothing, advancing from early-stage External Aura to mid-stage External Aura at will.
From the time he saw him in the Zhenlong Abyss at the late-stage Internal Aura, to now at the mid-stage External Aura, the time was so short as to be unbelievable.
Such a Xiaozhao was like a towering mountain, making people feel hopeless at the sight.
Xiaozhao's figure descended from the air without hesitation. With a flick of his right hand, the Spirit Sword Bìlóng flew directly towards Xiao Sheng!
Xiao Sheng gritted his teeth, driving the Huirilun to block the Spirit Sword Bìlóng.
The two spirit weapons immediately engaged in battle.
Xiaozhao looked at Xiao Sheng and smiled, "Late-stage External Aura Master, don't just run around."
With that, he exerted force with his feet, instantly closing the distance of over a hundred meters, and charged towards Xiao Sheng again!
Xiao Sheng glared at him, his eyes almost splitting with rage, and finally let out a low, frustrated roar, shouting at the other Dàrì Holy Sect disciples, "Go!"
Everyone was stunned, looking at Xiaozhao and Xiao Sheng with complex expressions, their hearts heavy with despair. They quickly carried the already unconscious Chao Yuanlong and retreated from the valley.
Xiaozhao did not make things difficult for them, focusing on continuing to beat up Xiao Sheng.
Xiao Sheng, in a fit of frustration, used the Dàrì East Ascension Horizontal Leap, but this time not to ambush, but to avoid Xiaozhao and escape.
Although his heart was bleeding, he was a hundred times unwilling to admit it.
But at this moment, Xiao Sheng realized that he was truly no match for Xiaozhao!
As a late-stage External Aura Master, he could not defeat the mid-stage External Aura Xiaozhao!
Relying on the floating power of a late-stage External Aura Master and the speed of the Dàrì East Ascension Horizontal Leap, Xiao Sheng narrowly avoided Xiaozhao's next attack.
But where the aura reached, Xiao Sheng's beard suddenly shattered and flew away.
Xiao Sheng was stunned, his face suddenly turning red, the color deep as blood. In a fit of uncontrollable emotion, his voice could no longer maintain its roughness, and he let out a sharp, angry howl.
Xiaozhao was also slightly taken aback.
The beard on Xiao Sheng's face was not just cut off, but the entire beard fell off, leaving his chin smooth, without a single hair.
Without the beard, Xiao Sheng's appearance matched the image in Xiaozhao's memory, a handsome young man.
But at this moment, paired with the sharp voice, Xiao Sheng looked somewhat effeminate, different from a normal man!
Xiao Sheng glared at Xiaozhao in anger, then looked at Feng Yunsheng with a venomous gaze, and finally did not stay, turning to leave.
Xiaozhao's lips twitched slightly, turning to look at Feng Yunsheng.
"You said you seriously injured him back then, where exactly did you injure him?"
Feng Yunsheng, who was completely unaffected by Xiao Sheng's hatred, had been watching Xiaozhao all along.
Although she was currently only at the Body Cultivation level due to her severe injuries, her discernment remained.
But precisely because she was discerning, she was even more amazed by everything Xiaozhao displayed.
It wasn't until Xiaozhao turned to ask her that her mouth was still slightly open, filled with surprise.
Hearing Xiaozhao's question, Feng Yunsheng came to her senses, looking relaxed, "Back then, his little brother was misbehaving, trying to take advantage of me, so I naturally helped him discipline his little brother."
"…You can do it." Xiaozhao pursed his lips, suddenly feeling a chill in his own crotch.
He heard that Xiao Sheng's maternal grandfather had only one daughter, and at his generation, only one grandson.
On his paternal side, the Xiao family, by the time it reached him, was also a single line of direct descendants…
No wonder they wanted to cut him off. His grandmaster was dead, and the Dàrì Holy Sect had no one to protect him.
Feng Yunsheng said indifferently, "The so-called Dàrì Holy Sect, the young generation's Chūyáng Four Heroes, both Xiao Sheng and Chao Yuanlong have their own issues."
"Chao Yuanlong has a strong character, unafraid of danger and hardship, but he likes to take unconventional paths, always wanting to accomplish what others can't, as if only then can he show his ability."
"Actually, if he had followed the orthodox path, practicing the Dàrì Holy Sect's orthodox martial arts like other disciples, instead of the unconventional Sun Needle Qi and Heavenly Snake Entangling Hand, with his talent and perseverance, his current combat strength might be slightly lower, but his future achievements would be even greater."
Feng Yunsheng shook her head, "Xiao Sheng's perseverance is not as strong as Chao Yuanlong's, but his insight is even greater. Unfortunately, his mind is too wild, especially his lust for beauty, and he can't control his little Xiao Sheng. Otherwise, his achievements would be even higher."
At this point, Feng Yunsheng smiled, "I helped him cut off that source of trouble, and in the past two years, his progress has been noticeably faster."
Hearing this, Xiaozhao rolled his eyes, "He's still missing the *Jade Girl's Manual*."
Feng Yunsheng was taken aback, "What martial art is that? I've never heard of it."
Xiaozhao waved his hand, not speaking further, but began to check his spoils of war.
In the battle with Xiao Sheng, a large number of treasures clashed.
In the end, to escape, the connection between Xiao Sheng and many of his treasures was severed by Xiaozhao.
Xiao Sheng, in a panic, naturally did not have time to collect these treasures, which now all fell into Xiaozhao's pocket.
Among them, two medium-grade treasures suited his current use, but Xiaozhao himself was not lacking in medium-grade treasures.
It was a high-grade treasure that was valuable.
But what truly attracted attention was the spirit weapon, the Huirilun!
The value of this thing and a treasure weapon was not in the same league.
With Xiaozhao's current assets, he only had the Spirit Sword Bìlóng as a spirit weapon.
