The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple

Chapter 1269: Chapter 378: Inscription Level Divine Techniques?! How Could You Possibly Know Inscription Level Divine Techniques?

"Young one, taste this ’Ten Thousand Souls Devouring Heart’ from me!"

The Ghost King’s Dharma Aspect swung all six arms, transforming into a billowing sea of ghostly flames, sweeping towards Zhou Qing.

Before the flames arrived, Zhou Qing already felt his primordial spirit being pierced, as if countless vengeful spirits were tearing at his divine soul!

"Courting death!"

A cold glint flashed in Zhou Qing’s eyes, accompanied by a piercing Golden Roc cry that echoed to the heavens, golden light suddenly surged around him, and a pair of dazzling golden wings unfolded behind him!

His figure soared, muscle lines became more pronounced, and intricate golden markings surfaced on his skin, resembling the feathers of an ancient Roc.

"Roc Technique divine ability?!" The elder squinted his eyes.

Without wasting words, Zhou Qing flapped his wings, instantly transforming into a bolt of golden lightning, directly charging into the ghostly flames!

"Boom—!"

The golden flames clashed madly with the eerie green ghostly flames, erupting into blinding light.

The vengeful spirits capable of corroding the primordial spirit vanished instantly like snow meeting fire upon contact with Zhou Qing’s Golden Roc True Body, wailing as they dissipated!

"Impossible!" The elder roared angrily, unleashing all six arms of the Ghost King’s Dharma Aspect, pounding down on Zhou Qing fiercely.

Zhou Qing sneered, unfolded his wings, his figure flickered like an illusion, disappearing at the moment the six arms closed in; when he reappeared, he stood atop the Ghost King’s Dharma Aspect!

"Break!"

Clenching his right fist, covered in golden thunder, he struck downward!

"Bang—!"

The head of the Ghost King’s Dharma Aspect exploded instantly, countless vengeful spirits wailing as they fled.

"Young one, you court death!"

The elder fumed with rage, forming seals with his hands, a frenzied convergence of nether death energy around him, forming a colossal thousand-foot "Nine Nether Yama" phantom behind him!

"Suppress and kill!"

The Yama phantom struck with one palm, revealing the projection of a netherworld hell, from which countless fierce ghosts crawled out, tearing towards Zhou Qing!

Fired up with battle intent, Zhou Qing unfolded his wings, advancing fiercely instead of retreating!

Charging directly at the sky-covering Yama giant palm, his right fist wrapped in golden thunder, he struck out heavily!

"Boom—!"

The moment fist met palm, the entire Imperial City trembled violently, numerous buildings collapsed, and deep chasms split open on the ground.

The terrifying shockwaves swept across, even causing distant watching cultivators to be flung away!

"Junior Brother!" Ghost Mastiff and Luo Lingling barely steadied themselves, their faces filled with shock and worry.

They stared intently at the elder’s unfamiliar figure in the air, not understanding why he would attack Junior Brother.

And, who is this person?

"Senior Brother, Senior Sister!" Lu Yaoyao came breathlessly, supporting the unconscious Shen Yunzhou.

At this moment, Shen Yunzhou was covered in dust, his face pale, with a faintly visible eerie green seal mark between his eyebrows.

Luo Lingling hurriedly stepped forward to check, her fingertip recoiled upon touching Shen Yunzhou’s forehead: "Such strong sealing! Spiritual Power is completely solidified, even my probing is swallowed."

She frowned, "Such a sinister method."

"Senior Sister, is there any way to wake him up quickly, we must contact Sister Shen promptly!"

Lu Yaoyao stomped anxiously, eyes full of worry.

Luo Lingling gathered spiritual power at her fingertips, examined Shen Yunzhou’s brow for a moment, then shook her head: "It’s impossible! The seal inside him is too strong, my spiritual power just barely goes in and gets swallowed by that chilling energy."

Ghost Mastiff patted Lu Yaoyao’s shoulder, speaking gruffly: "Don’t worry, Junior Sister. The movement from Spirit Slash Realm is sensed throughout the Imperial City."

"If Senior Shen is nearby, he will definitely notice."

Lu Yaoyao finally felt a bit more at ease, but stood up still unable to stop herself from worrying, looking towards the sky.

Two figures clashed and collided in the air, each engagement causing changes in the heavens and earth.

Luo Lingling also looked up at the battling figures in the sky, puzzled: "Funny, Xiao Qing clearly said to wait for Elder Mo to bring back the remaining materials, we’d return to Taiqing Sect together, and slowly prepare for Spirit Slash matters. How did he suddenly reach Spirit Slash?"

Lu Yaoyao also shook her head in confusion, still feeling at a loss.

"Ah~" A heavy sigh suddenly sounded from behind them.

Suddenly, four black spatial rifts split the night sky, four Spirit Slash experts of the Xuanyuan Royal Family emerged together.

Old Emperor Xuanyuan Chong stood with his hands behind his back, Prince Xuanyuan Shuo’s robe fluttered.

The current Emperor Xuanyuan Hao wielded the national seal, Xuanyuan Sha emanated biting killing energy.

Four powerful divine senses instantly locked onto the two battling figures in the sky.

Upon discerning Zhou Qing’s figure, their pupils contracted sharply, faces filled with disbelief.

"This..." Xuanyuan Shuo’s voice trembled slightly.

He had witnessed the silver-haired, veiled woman battling this foreign elder on Wuxiang Mountain with his own eyes.

Back then, he even brought Zhou Qing and the man with the yellow hair to watch together.

But now, a little over a month later, Zhou Qing could actually fight evenly with the other party?

How is this possible?

Am I dreaming?

Emperor Xuanyuan Hao was similarly stunned, unable to regain his composure for a long time.

Old Emperor Xuanyuan Chong frowned deeply.

The aura emitted by the foreign elder already reached Spirit Slash Realm Perfection, even if the four joined forces, coupled with national fortune, they could barely fight to a draw.

But when had Zhou Qing, a newly promoted Fourth-level Array Master, possessed such battle power?

Even if he broke through to Spirit Slash, it should be the Initial Realm, definitely not capable of such a battle against a Perfection.

What on earth is going on?

A Secret Technique?

What kind of Secret Technique could enable someone to skip tiers and engage in such combat continuously?

Xuanyuan Chong suppressed his shock, speaking solemnly: "Now is not the time to delve deep."

He gazed upon the ruined streets of the Imperial City below, a flicker of regret in his eyes, "If this continues, the entire Inner City will be destroyed."
