Sect Master's Immortal Journey

Chapter 230: Defeated in Public

Once Meng Zhang went all out, Zhao Jiudou clearly felt the immense pressure. The "Tangling Silk Soft Sword Technique" was originally a top-secret sword technique of the Taiyi Sect. Even during the heyday of the Taiyi Sect, it was considered a superior sword technique.

Meng Zhang, with his exceptional talent, had immersed himself in swordsmanship for many years and had long perfected this sword technique to an extraordinary level. Especially after reaching the Foundation Building stage, he gradually discovered the true power of this sword technique.

Countless white shadows danced in the air as the white silk covered the sky, forcing Zhao Jiudou's "Bone Blade Sword" to retreat repeatedly. The "Tangling Silk Soft Sword" took advantage of the situation and pursued, unleashing a myriad of sword shadows that almost completely enveloped Zhao Jiudou's body.

Zhao Jiudou used his "Bone Blade Sword" to defend from left to right while swiftly moving his body, dodging and barely withstanding Meng Zhang's attacks. Zhao Jiudou was secretly astonished, as he didn't expect Meng Zhang to be so formidable. Back when Zhao Jiudou was at the Refining Qi stage, he had clashed with Meng Zhang twice, but neither side emerged victorious. Due to various reasons, they had to settle with a draw.

Zhao Jiudou was full of confidence after joining the Flying Swan Sect, thinking that his strength had greatly improved and that he could openly defeat Meng Zhang, his old rival, to regain his lost pride. Unexpectedly, while he was making progress, his opponent was progressing even faster.

Of course, even though Zhao Jiudou was temporarily at a disadvantage, he still had hidden aces up his sleeve, believing that he could turn the tables.

In mid-air, Zhao Jiudou flew at high speed, evading the attacks of flying swords while searching for an opportunity to strike. When he and Meng Zhang passed by each other, a flying sword suddenly flew out from behind him and slashed toward Meng Zhang's back.

Meng Zhang's divine consciousness extended further than Zhao Jiudou's, capturing everything that happened behind him. Being a master of the "Dual Sword Style" himself, Meng Zhang didn't fear Zhao Jiudou's amateurish dual sword techniques. Not just any two flying swords could be considered the "Dual Sword Style"; they needed a special sword technique to coordinate seamlessly without interfering with each other.

Meng Zhang feigned a bit of panic, pointing with one hand, and the "Tangling Silk Soft Sword," which had been entangled with the "Bone Blade Sword," detached from the entanglement and flew towards the flying sword attacking his back.

Seeing this, Zhao Jiudou thought that Meng Zhang panicked when the flying sword approached, leading to an incorrect choice. Seizing the opportunity, Zhao Jiudou used his "Bone Blade Sword" to attack Meng Zhang.

Without the obstruction of the "Tangling Silk Soft Sword," the "Bone Blade Sword" flew almost unhindered toward Meng Zhang. Just as the "Bone Blade Sword" was about to strike him, Meng Zhang took out the "Golden Crow Lantern" that he had prepared long ago and activated the Solar True Qi within his body to the fullest extent.

A faint shadow of a three-legged golden crow appeared on the "Golden Crow Lantern," and a tremendously scorching flame surged directly toward the oncoming "Bone Blade Sword."

Meng Zhang didn't use the "Venomous Teeth of the Flying Sword" because he wanted to conserve enough power to activate this immensely powerful magic tool. Although he could only unleash a small portion of the "Golden Crow Lantern's" might, the reinforced Solar True Flame was incredibly potent.

The Solar True Flame engulfed the "Bone Blade Sword" upon contact, causing Zhao Jiudou to feel as though he had been struck by a heavy blow, unable to help but spew out a mouthful of blood. The true qi imprint he had left on the "Bone Blade Sword" was completely destroyed by the Solar True Flame.

On the other side, taking advantage of Zhao Jiudou's injury, the "Tangling Silk Soft Sword" twisted like a rope, completely entangling the flying sword Zhao Jiudou had released.

Seeing Zhao Jiudou injured and spitting blood, everyone knew that the outcome had been decided. Although Guang HongDaoist disapproved of Zhao Jiudou, he couldn't allow a disciple of the Flying Swan Sect to be killed or severely injured right under his nose."Stop!" Guang HongDaoist interfered in the battle.

Although Meng Zhang couldn't kill Zhao Jiudou on the spot, he wanted to give him a profound lesson to prevent him from causing trouble in the future.

Meng Zhang continued to activate the "Golden Crow Lantern," causing the Solar True Flame on the "Bone Blade Sword" to burn even more fiercely. As Zhao Jiudou's aura was linked to the "Bone Blade Sword," he couldn't avoid being affected by the severe damage it received.

Zhao Jiudou was preparing to find a way to force Meng Zhang back and regain control of the "Bone Blade Sword." However, on the other side, Meng Zhang's "Tangling Silk Soft Sword" had already knocked down the other flying sword Zhao Jiudou released and was flying towards him.

Seeing that their words of dissuasion were ineffective, Guang HongDaoist and Lin Shenpo flew into the battlefield together.

Guang HongDaoist grabbed Zhao Jiudou and sternly shouted, "The outcome is clear. How long do you want to linger on?"

Lin Shenpo released a flying sword to block the "Tangling Silk Soft Sword."

Meng Zhang put away the "Tangling Silk Soft Sword" but continued to unleash the Solar True Flame, burning the "Bone Blade Sword."

Sensing Guang HongDaoist's disapproving gaze, Meng Zhang withdrew the Solar True Flame. He kicked the "Bone Blade Sword" towards Zhao Jiudou, simultaneously sending a silent burst of Lunar True Water from his foot, attaching it to the "Bone Blade Sword."

As water and fire clashed, the "Bone Blade Sword" was seriously damaged. Repairing it completely would undoubtedly take time and effort.

Guang HongDaoist made a gesture, and a stream of qi supported the "Bone Blade Sword," placing it in Zhao Jiudou's hand.

In truth, Zhao Jiudou's injuries were not severe, but Guang HongDaoist was concerned for his safety and stopped him from continuing the fight.

With a bit of self-awareness, Zhao Jiudou knew that he had indeed lost today's battle. He received the "Bone Blade Sword," put away the other flying sword, and without saying a word, he flew away in front of everyone, feeling utterly humiliated.

Guang HongDaoist looked at Zhao Jiudou's departing figure and shouted loudly, "The outcome of today's battle is decided. From now on, both sides must not continue to engage in conflict. The ownership of Fuzhao Valley shall not be questioned by anyone again."

In the final moment, Guang HongDaoist managed to remain fair and didn't favor Zhao Jiudou.

Meng Zhang's victory over the Flying Swan Sect disciple Zhao Jiudou undoubtedly boosted his reputation. From now on, it seemed that no one would dare to underestimate him.

Jin Qigu flew to Meng Zhang's side and congratulated him.

Everyone gathered together and started chatting. They were all dissatisfied with Zhao Jiudou's behavior.

Meng Zhang, being young and having not been in the Foundation Building stage for long, displayed such outstanding combat strength, garnering admiration from everyone.

In his usual modest manner, Meng Zhang actively changed the topic to divert attention away from himself.

After a while of chatting, Meng Zhang took the initiative to bring up the "Lesser Foundation Building Pill." Almost everyone became interested in this topic and turned their gazes to Gu Tanghai.

It had been a while since they obtained the pill formula, and they were curious about their progress in researching and refining the pill. Had they successfully produced the pill yet?
