A Top Scholar in Everything

Chapter 1276: Chapter 1262: The Final Trial’s Contents

The Red Sun Blade Qi spread like a wave of fire and collided with the water wave transformed by Chen Guoliang, creating a screeching sound.

A large mist of white smoke rose.

It was as if the two forces of water and fire truly collided.

After failing with this strike, Chen Guoliang reformed into a human shape in mid-air, his sinister eyes locking onto the front: "Still that annoying aura, but I’m not the same as before anymore!"

"Good, I was afraid you wouldn’t be enough for my warm-up."

Zhou Yi tightly gripped the Horse-cutting Blade, with Blood Qi bursting forth, stirring up a tornado around him, directly repelling the falling rubble, rushing forward.

Chen Guoliang was also unwilling to retreat.

As the two clashed together, Ji Letian frowned and was about to raise her hand to aid Zhou Yi.

But at that moment.

The masked man stood in front of her.

"Young lady, I don’t like to resort to violence, but if you do, then I can’t stand by and let this unfairness happen.

So.

Let’s stand here quietly and wait for the outcome, shall we?

This way.

It’s better for both you and me."

Ji Letian hesitated for a moment, then sneered: "You have such confidence in your companion?"

"Naturally, I must trust him."

The masked man answered leisurely.

"Hmm, it seems you don’t even know who you’re up against. Well, for such an ant, if I intervene, the Saint Envoy would think I’m questioning his strength."

Ji Letian withdrew her hand, eyeing the masked man warily.

Only.

At this moment, the masked man was looking up, seemingly using the collapsed opening to observe the top of the tower.

At this moment, the battle between Zhou Yi and Chen Guoliang had reached a fever pitch.

What Zhou Yi found hard to believe was.

His entire body exploded with strength, True Qi reached seven or eight layers, yet he was in a draw with Chen Guoliang, even slightly at a disadvantage.

This was absolutely impossible just a few months ago.

Chen Guoliang’s strength had advanced too quickly; this bastard, if not eliminated, would definitely become a major problem!

Zhou Yi’s heart was already set on killing.

Of course.

Previously, he always wanted to kill him.

"Dark Waters!"

Chen Guoliang laughed coldly.

Though reluctant to admit it, Zhou Yi looked at the smile on his face amidst the wrapping water flow, recalling an extremely clichéd term, wicked and wild!

He never knew.

Someone could smile so awkwardly and ugly.

It was likely because his face partially transformed into water flow, constantly moving.

After he used this wicked and wild move.

The water flow around him suddenly became turbulent.

Zhou Yi only felt wrapped in icy cold water, his limbs cold, his Blood Qi unable to circulate, unable to move.

At this time.

The Purple Mist True Qi within him surged like tidal waves.

Roaring and rushing through the meridians.

The mutated Purple Mist True Qi, imbued with the resonant and masculine aura of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, instantly expelled the chill within his body.

Zhou Yi swung up the Horse-cutting Blade.

Immediately dozens of slashes followed, cleaving towards the water waves ahead as if tearing through space.

Hissing steam emerged again.

Chen Guoliang’s face looked somewhat unpleasant, yet he still directed the water flow to pounce forward.

At this moment.

Zhou Yi’s two fingers came together, Blood Qi surged, and in special meridians, True Qi from the Little Unifying Skill rolled and surged.

"Breaking Evil!"

Breaking Evil with one finger.

Blood Qi condensed into destructive Breaking Evil Power, thrusting forward, shooting out blinding light like futuristic high-tech cannon.

Hiss hiss.

Where the beam passed, the water instantly evaporated, Chen Guoliang’s eyes widened, looking at the scene incredulously, but now the protective shield around him shattered, with his heart evaporated directly by the beam.

Though his body could transform into water flow.

When the water evaporates excessively, destruction outpaces recovery, he would still be severely injured or even die.

Evidently.

The Breaking Evil’s power absolutely reached the standard.

The water flow transformed by Chen Guoliang instantly collapsed, scattered into rain dropping to the ground.

Zhou Yi did not loosen his vigilance.

After dispersing Chen Guoliang, he used another Great Heat finger, scorching Finger Power directly evaporating water flow on the ground.

A series of painful, vengeful wails resounded from the water flow.

Evidently belonging to Chen Guoliang.

The masked man was also surprised, looking at Zhou Yi with a peculiar gaze, filled with shock, wonder, confusion, and excitement.

Apparently, he couldn’t grasp.

How Zhou Yi defeated Chen Guoliang.

At this moment.

A slight reddish gas rose from the water flow, merging into the Martial Arts Cultivation Device at Zhou Yi’s chest, a process only visible to him.

The masked man waved a hand, picking up a jelly-like object that exploded from Chen Guoliang, then leaped toward the top of Buddha Tower.

Zhou Yi realized in this moment, naturally he couldn’t let him go.

Being associated with Chen Guoliang, this masked man surely wasn’t a good person.

Only.

When Zhou Yi chased to the tower’s top.

He found only a two-person tall Buddha statue, with its right hand pinching a flower-like object, holding a black, somewhat lumpy oval object, exuding strong Spirituality.

And in its left hand.

Lay an ancient yellow Bamboo Slip.

The masked man seemingly knowing Zhou Yi wasn’t easy to deal with, headed straight to the Buddha statue’s right hand, taking the oval object then jumping out the window.

Zhou Yi frowned.

"Relic, Demon Buddha Relic! Didn’t expect there really were Demon Buddha Relics here!"

Ji Letian, watching the masked man take the black oval stone, panicked, rushing forward to block him.

Zhou Yi had heard.

That after a virtuous monk’s death, a Relic could be burnt from their body. But scientifically speaking, these Relics burned by the monks were likely... kidney stones.

But this is a world brimming with mystical power.

On that Relic just now.

A powerful Spirituality existed, obviously not ordinary.

Zhou Yi initially planned to chase out with Ji Letian, but he glanced sideways, discovering the Bamboo Slip on the Buddha’s left hand.

The Bamboo Slip was inherently yellow, compounded by time’s oxidation and erosion, making it even more golden.

With two quick steps.

He grabbed the Bamboo Slip.

Spreading it open.

Inscribed with special red pigment in Mystical Language, a headline: "Celestial Demon Golden Body Transformation"

Seems like a secret manual!

And a secret manual written in Mystical Language.

Based on Zhou Yi’s knowledge learned at Anti-Insurgency Bureau from his teacher, books written in Mystical Language hold high research value.

He didn’t hesitate.

Stashed the Bamboo Slip in his pocket.

Just as he planned to turn and chase the guy who snatched his Relic.

At this moment.

The black Buddha statue suddenly cracked.

This time it cracked voluntarily, without external force.

Zhou Yi retreated two steps.

The statue exploded into stone dust with a bang, and before the previous Buddha pedestal, a Buddha of normal human size was seated cross-legged, slowly opening his crimson eyes!
