Chapter 269 What is Invincible?
Inside a dilapidated red building at Shenwu Academy.
Sunlight streams in, and the air ripples like the surface of a lake, shimmering and sparkling.
Three figures passed through the barrier and arrived here.
Old Master Ming said, "So you really are here."
Feng Xuan's aged figure stood in front of a long wall, seemingly oblivious to everything, quietly looking at the old objects on the wall with a look of nostalgia in his eyes.
At the highest point is a broken bronze folding knife.
He was the first principal of Shenwu Academy more than two hundred years ago.
At the lowest point was a tattered red silk ribbon, a weapon once used by Red King Li Dong.
This is the ancestral hall of Shenwu Academy.
It is also Valhalla.
"Since the first principal, more than two hundred years have passed, and only 13 items remain here, but behind them lie the remains of so many people," Feng Xuan sighed. "Do you still remember the scene when we enrolled? I've almost forgotten the faces of many old friends."
"Who can argue with that? We old folks should have been buried long ago back in the old days."
Old Xing glanced at the red silk and sighed, "Li Dong, what a pity."
"Li Dong was my disciple. He died on the battlefield, and I am proud of him."
Feng Xuan calmly said, "In fact, I knew this outcome all along."
"That kid's talent is at most limited to the King Realm, his path is blocked, yet he possesses a sense of justice and responsibility far exceeding that of others. It's not surprising that he made such a choice to protect the Great Xia, pave the way for the younger generation, and uphold the justice in his heart."
"In fact, it is because there are many people like him that the Great Xia Dynasty has been able to reach where it is today."
The old woman surnamed Yue looked at this prodigy of her generation with a complex mix of emotions and admiration.
The once spirited and peerless genius is now nearly a hundred years old, his hair turned white.
Even if lifespan can increase with the level of life, the marks left by the years are hard to erase.
Plus……
"Feng Xuan, has your old injury... worsened?" Elder Ming suddenly asked.
Upon hearing this, the old woman's expression tightened, and she and Elder Yue looked at Feng Xuan.
Feng Xuan smiled and said, "As expected of an old archer who has one foot in the King Realm, your insight is indeed remarkable."
He sighed softly, "The wounds inflicted on me by a cursed demigod at great cost contain forbidden curses, and they are not so easy to heal. It's not that the old wounds have worsened, but that I have gradually weakened over the past thirty years, and even with the suppression of that relic deep in the academy, I am gradually losing control."
"How could this be..." The old woman swayed.
Old Master Ming frowned deeply. "It's that serious?!"
Yes, otherwise, how could a demigod, whose life level has come close to that of a god, look so old when he is only a hundred years old?
Even a centenarian king will show signs of aging.
Old Xing roared, "You old fool, how come you've never told us about something this important?!"
"There's no need," Feng Xuan laughed. "I'm a demigod, when did I ever fall to the point where you need to worry about me? Besides, even I can't solve this problem, so telling you won't help and will only add to your troubles."
"Is there really no way to cure it completely?" the old woman couldn't help but ask.
Feng Xuan shook his head. "I've already asked the spirit of the library, and its records don't mention any way to break or repair it. Unless we find the complete Book of Wisdom, but that's almost impossible. I've searched all the possible relics and copies of the Great Xia Dynasty, and there's no trace of the Book of Wisdom at all."
"You don't need to worry too much."
Feng Xuan said nonchalantly, "Although my strength has weakened, I can still last at least ten years, at most ten years, and perhaps even less. Recently, I have sensed that many ancient auras in the depths of the abyss are reviving, and a dangerous aura is spreading. Perhaps soon, order and stability will be broken."
"Ten years is enough time for me to get some things done."
Elder Ming: "What are you planning to do?"
"Find a successor so that even after I'm gone, this Divine Martial Academy can still be maintained," Feng Xuan said with a smile.
The old woman's eyes flashed, and the image of a black-clad youth with an imposing aura appeared before her. "You mean that child?"
Elder Xing asked doubtfully, "He certainly possesses terrifying talent and astonishing ability, but ten years... isn't that too short?"
To succeed Feng Xuan, one must at least be a king, and one who is virtually invincible in the same realm.
otherwise.
Without it, the prestige of Pillar God Martial Academy, the number one academy in Great Xia, would be unbearable!
Hearing the three elders' questions, Feng Xuan smiled and waved his hand.
Ripples of water filled the air, revealing a real-time view of the ethereal sword domain.
Feng Xuan sighed, "After seeing this, do you still think ten years is a short time?"
The three elders stared intently, their expressions instantly changing, and a storm raged in their hearts.
"this……"
"This is……?!"
…………
Within the Void Sword Domain.
Dark clouds gathered, a strong wind blew, and lightning flashed and thunder roared.
"Whoosh!"
As Sikong exerted all his strength to throw out the black lightning spear he had condensed, the entire sky instantly exploded, enveloped by countless black lightning bolts, densely packed like a spider web.
"Crunch!"
A beam of extremely powerful black lightning pierced through the space and appeared in front of Jiang Yuan at an incredible speed.
The magnetic barrier cast by Guardian 0 and the mechanical wall it transformed into only held out for a moment before being shattered.
"boom!"
Jiang Yuan's eyes shot out terrifying golden light, his black hair fluttered, and countless golden rays bloomed behind his head.
With the support of an extremely powerful martial will and the activation of the Undying Divine Body, terrifying blood energy flowed through his body like a torrent. The extremely dense blood energy transformed into golden flames that covered his body surface and merged into his right fist, causing it to lose its shape and completely transform into a dazzling golden color that illuminated the heavens and the earth. Just one glance at it was enough to make one's eyes sting.
Even without using any skills or talents, this pure physique is extremely powerful!
"Black Flash. Empty Strike".
Jiang Yuan's eyes flashed, and he unleashed a powerful right punch in an instant. His right fist disappeared, leaving only a dazzling beam of light shooting out.
The golden fist light and the pitch-black lightning collided.
After a brief moment of tranquility.
Silently.
The vast void in front of Jiang Yuan shattered like a piece of glass, with countless cracks spreading out.
Along with it, the entire frozen lake also shattered.
…………
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
Sikong stood high in the sky, panting heavily.
The lightning armor on his body gradually began to disintegrate and crumble.
That attack had almost exhausted all his physical strength, and his mental state had reached its limit; even his eyelids were trembling.
"How is it?"
The frozen lake below was completely shrouded in ice mist, obscuring the view. But soon a strong wind blew, the ice mist dissipated, and a huge pit appeared in the center of the frozen lake, reaching all the way to the bottom, like a large rift valley, dividing the entire frozen lake in two.
I saw the figure standing at the edge.
Sikong gave a bitter smile.
"Even this trick didn't work. You can't even force out your skills and talents...?"
Just how strong are you?
Lin Qingyan, Gao Tian, Jiang Yan, and Shi Zhentian had just recovered from the shock of that attack.
Then they saw Jiang Yuan standing at the edge.
"Oh no, it's broken again."
Jiang Yuan looked at the broken [Ksitigarbha's Bracers] on the ground, and helplessly scratched his hair.
Without using any talents or skills, relying solely on physique and martial arts is indeed not enough.
That killing move just now must have dealt him close to 8000 points of Dao power. No wonder he's the number one prodigy of the Divine Martial Academy...
Without the restraint of the Ksitigarbha Bracers.
His long-suppressed golden blood energy spread outwards in ripples from him in concentric circles.
stronger.
The sense of oppression is getting heavier and heavier.
The layers of ominous clouds began to tremble and shatter.
The frozen lake began to collapse and shatter inch by inch, centered on him, and the distant Sword Rock was also impacted and began to tremble violently.
Even in the distant grasslands, thousands of students felt the oppressive aura of that pure blood and qi, some experiencing shortness of breath, and all using their talents and skills to resist it.
"It hurts so much."
"What is this? Qi and blood?"
"How can there be such rich and abundant blood and energy, like a vast ocean..."
"I felt a life force, an incredibly powerful life force, it was just like the sun..."
Under the shocked, stunned, bewildered, terrified, horrified, fearful, awe-inspiring, worshipful, and fascinated gazes of the group of geniuses and students.
The young swordsmanship professor looked up at the sky, a seemingly magical smile on his handsome face. His black hair fluttered in the wind, and the hem of his black coat billowed in the wind.
Even the top student in the academy, or perhaps the number one genius of the Great Xia Dynasty, would find it difficult to leave any marks on him.
That calm and unhurried demeanor.
It's as if it's telling everyone.
What does it mean to be invincible?
