Chapter 321: Chapter 200: There Are Differences Even Among Foundations!
In the forest, Ning An and the Silver Corpse were engaged in a fierce battle, their blows landing with the speed of lightning!
Only remnants of their silhouettes could be seen in the air and on the ground, making it look as if the world had lost its color, the sun and moon were dimmed!
At that moment, in a meeting room in the Capital City.
The elders, positioned left seven and right eight, with the elder at the main seat, were all focused intently on the projection screen before them.
On the screen was a high-definition live version of Ning An and Silver Corpse’s battle.
Initially, everyone was chatting and laughing, but soon, their smiles faded.
The elder to the right eight couldn’t help but exclaim, "Such physical prowess, even those ancient texts might pale in comparison."
The elder to the right five snorted, "These cultivators are like ticking time bombs! Refusing the goodwill of the country, even wanting a mountain; what is he planning? Recruiting an army, openly defying the nation?"
Upon hearing this, the elders on the left were displeased.
Immediately, the elder to the left four retorted unceremoniously, "He has helped the country resolve so many issues, even provided magic to rapidly enhance our extraordinary power, what’s wrong with asking for a mountain!"
The elder to the left six echoed, "Exactly, he simply wants a place to cultivate, is it really as bad as you claim? If it were me, I would have already boasted about my achievements and made you treat me like a lord!"
At the scene, the elders bickered, their beards puffed in anger, eyes glaring and words cutting, unreserved.
Meanwhile, Ning An and the Silver Corpse were completely locked in a stalemate.
Ning An couldn’t penetrate the Silver Corpse’s defense, and the Silver Corpse couldn’t hurt Ning An.
The Silver Corpse roared repeatedly, unable to defeat the person before it, feeling inexplicable fury and shame.
No matter how hard it tried, Ning An moved with the speed of lightning, weaving through the forest.
"Roar!"
The Silver Corpse bellowed, pushing its speed to the extreme, its nails extending from its hands, swinging and forming an impenetrable barrier, frantically trying to corner Ning An.
The Silver Corpse stirred up a gust of powerful wind, emitting waves of dark light, the pervasive Yin energy casting shadows, even the moonlight turned pale, as if this place was a realm of asuras.
Though called a duel, Quan Xiaobai and Ning An understood its implications well.
Despite Quan Xiaobai’s guilt, different stances meant not holding back, fully merging man and corpse, the power unmatched!
Ning An too was giving his all, except for not using the Thunder Talisman Token and Five Ghosts as aces in the hole. Even when the blade of the fire axe was damaged, he directly took out the Seven-Star Copper Coin Sword.
This confrontation made the elders’ blood boil; the extraordinary powers that existed only in myths returned to the world again. Just these dazzling scenes made them realize the terror of the extraordinary.
Quan Xiaobai’s hands performed bizarre hand seals, while sharp commands continually echoed.
The Silver Corpse’s speed increased, its previously sluggish body now seemed agile, adding more pressure on Ning An.
"Huff!"
Ning An held the Seven-Star Copper Coin Sword, coldly watching the Silver Corpse rush forward.
He poured all his Qi into the Copper Coin Sword, which erupted with a dazzling bronze light, the sharp blade cold and chilling, its radiance flickering, projecting several meters of sword light, pulsating, with an impressive momentum.
The Silver Corpse roared, unleashing a fierce gale and an unending wave of Yin energy.
In the blink of an eye, it reached Ning An, the eerie light flickering, ready to tear Ning An to shreds.
"Here it comes!"
Ning An shouted, the sharp blade of the Seven-Star Copper Coin Sword pierced through, blazing sword light seemingly torn through the void, charging directly at the Silver Corpse’s claws.
Clang!
In the air, the overwhelming death and Yin energy seemed momentarily replaced by the bronze color.
But Ning An’s expression remained tense; with just one arm, the Silver Corpse resisted the Seven-Star Copper Coin Sword, the continuous death energy dissipated the sword light.
The expected scene of severing the Silver Corpse’s arm did not occur; instead, the Silver Corpse crushed the blazing sword light with a single claw.
Ning An’s strongest strike achieved nothing.
Seizing the moment, the Silver Corpse’s other arm reached out like a claw from the Nine Netherworld, aiming fiercely at Ning An.
Ning An swung the Copper Coin Sword, switching from thrust to strike, hitting the Silver Corpse’s abdomen fiercely.
Boom!
The Silver Corpse wobbled in the air, stepped back a few steps, while Ning An was flung away by the impact.
This scene made all the elders gasp.
The elder to the right one secretly nodded, understanding the strength of the Silver Corpse better than anyone else.
Not to mention cold weapons, even pistols, rifles, submachine guns, or even small-caliber snipers barely harm it, in some sense, it could be deemed indestructible, immune to physical attacks.
He instructed Quan Xiaobai to strike at Ning An under the guise of a sparring match, based on this.
The meaning is simple: strike the weaker to warn the stronger!
As chaos looms, one must use thunderous force to suppress all unstable elements and stabilize order.
He is also grateful for the simplified version of the Corpse Cultivation Technique provided by Ning An, but with the interests of the Dragon Country at stake, there are things he must do.
Facing the retreating Ning An, Quan Xiaobai’s eyes lit up, he formed a hand seal to stop the retreating Silver Corpse, making it charge again.
Ning An’s face remained calm, but in reality, his heart was stirred.
Even though his own strength was suppressed by this vast world, not even a tenth of his true power could be displayed, yet even so, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say he was invincible.
But Ning An truly didn’t expect that his full-strength strike couldn’t even shake the Silver Corpse!
Last time, he could suppress the not fully evolved Iron Corpse, yet now, after just over a month, he was nearly suppressed by the Silver Corpse!
This cultivation technique is terrifying beyond measure!
No wonder the Daoist Family held such disdain for the Lower Mao Sect before.
Not only because the magic is eerie, but also because they couldn’t defeat them!
If he couldn’t think of a solution, then he would have only two paths to take.
Either to speak out and reconcile, from then on lowering himself, or to reveal the trump card he had hidden away!
Ning An’s movements were as ghostly as ever, with a flash he was over ten meters away, dodging the brutal strike of the Silver Corpse.
After the Silver Corpse swung and missed, it didn’t slow down. Instead, with a sound of "other," its figure righted itself and charged again.
In the conference room, the elderly man Zuo Er, who had previously dealt with Ning An, couldn’t help but frown as he watched the scene:
"Where’s that thing of his that can emit lightning? Why hasn’t he taken it out yet?"
Elder Zuo San also looked grave: "Thunder Law Evil Extermination, but it also consumes a lot. Could it be something like a power bank, and it’s currently out of power?"
Upon hearing this, Elder Zuo Yi couldn’t help but laugh:
"Haha! Could it be that it’s just for show, just a Blinding Technique, actually borrowing his junior sister’s Thunder Talisman."
"Besides, if he took out that thing, isn’t it also one of our objectives."
The elders wore varied expressions on their faces, but said nothing.
However, just as Elder Zuo Er said, as long as he took out the Thunder Strike Token, this so-called sparring match could be declared over.
"But this way, it doesn’t seem to be intimidating enough!"
Ning An’s silhouette transformed into a streak of blue light, continuously shifting his position, evading the pursuit of the Silver Corpse.
Ning An already understood that this was an invisible confrontation from above.
Ning An also understood that to obtain the desired authority and freedom, he must now display even more shocking methods!
At this moment, in the conference room, the calm expressions on the elders’ faces remained as everyone silently watched the perilous chase on the stage.
Even in other authorized conference rooms, everyone was no exception, closely observing this great battle.
This sparring match, seemingly harmonious on the surface, actually hid many secrets, and the final result would confirm their attitude towards Changchun Temple,
Several fierce bronze gleams shot skyward, but they couldn’t shake the Silver Corpse’s body. The strikes on it could only be heard as the sound of iron clashing!
The Silver Corpse’s arm swung downward, rapidly clawing toward Ning An.
Ning An remained emotionless, holding the Bronze Sword, heading straight for the chest of the Silver Corpse.
At that moment, in the eyes of all who watched, Ning An was undeniably committing suicide!
No matter how sharp the Bronze Sword was, it was hard to break through the Silver Corpse’s defense; on the contrary, the Silver Corpse’s sharp claws were sure to tear Ning An apart in the next moment!
However, the scene that no one could have ever imagined occurred!
The fierce wind in the air blew Ning An’s hairpin loose, his black hair flying, and a sinister claw eerily stopped just an arm’s length away from him.
The Seven-Star Copper Coin Sword in Ning An’s hand pierced through the chest of the Silver Corpse, pinning it mid-air!
The sword pierced through the Silver Corpse’s hand, piercing through and nailing it directly in the air!
This shocking scene stunned everyone present.
In an instant, Quan Xiaobai seemed to lose his mind, murmuring to himself:
"No, impossible, how can this be possible!"
