I Have A Dual World Seal

Chapter 1156: Chapter 1155: Defeating Daoist Xiting

He’s coming, he’s coming, he’s here!

No matter how polished Daoist Xiting’s words are, they can’t hide the fact that he wants to spar with Lu Zheng.

Of course, no one is foolish, and Daoist Xiting didn’t intend to hide it, but he was being respectful in his attitude.

Even if Master Yun Ning has fallen, he is still a figure of high stature in Chixiao Temple. Being defeated by the youngest disciple from White Cloud Temple makes the Chixiao Temple disciples feel embarrassed.

This won’t change based on right or wrong.

Lu Zheng stopped Master Yun Ning, and for that Chixiao Temple is grateful, but Lu Zheng defeating Master Yun Ning also makes Chixiao Temple feel displeased.

These are two separate matters. Although there’s a bit of contradiction, they are indeed two separate matters.

Perhaps Ling Kunzi and Master Jinghe, like other big figures, have seen the world and won’t mind, but not every disciple in Chixiao Temple is a sage.

Therefore, as one of the top talents among the new generation of Chixiao Temple disciples, Daoist Xiting certainly wants to test Lu Zheng’s strength.

"Has Brother Xiting seen Brother Yuanlin?" Lu Zheng asked with a smile.

Daoist Xiting coughed lightly and explained, "Although we’ve met a few times, due to unforeseen circumstances, it was often in haste, and we never exchanged blows.

Well, since the junior brother has nothing to do today, especially having stopped Grandmaster Yun Ning, I got a little itchy... I’m just curious, let’s just spar lightly."

After all, being one of the prominent figures of the new generation of Chixiao Temple, he has a basic sense of right and wrong. Although Lu Zheng is the one who personally brought the coffin up the mountain today with perfect etiquette, it’s instead himself who had leisure first and decided to try sparring with the other party...

No, I better stop talking, otherwise, the more I speak, the less confident I become.

Thus, Daoist Xiting decisively fell silent and looked at Lu Zheng with burning eyes.

Attitude is one thing, but fighting is necessary!

"Good!" Lu Zheng answered loudly, "I am also very curious about Chixiao Temple’s ’Yuqing Chixiao Scripture’, so I’ll ask the senior brother for guidance."

"I dare not, please!"

"Please!"

As Daoist Xiting’s words fell, he formed a seal with his hands, opened his mouth, and spat out a Yin Yang Qi that flew from his mouth, transforming into a circle of Yin Yang Fish, flying towards Lu Zheng.

Clearly, with no dodging or evading.

But it is intended to compare the understanding depth and subtle application of cultivation.

It’s both a discussion and a sparring.

"Such exquisite Yin Yang Qi."

Lu Zheng nodded and praised, a cluster of pure white, seemingly thin yet dense Innate Cloud Qi suddenly appeared in front of him.

The sudden appearance of Innate Cloud Qi was so abrupt that Daoist Xiting couldn’t even discern how this Cloud Qi appeared or sense any fluctuation in Lu Zheng’s Magical Power.

"Truly the ’Rootless Cloud Qi Scripture’!"

Daoist Xiting also praised, directing the Yin Yang Fish to meet it.

The next moment, the Yin Yang Fish collided with the Innate Cloud Qi.

The Innate Cloud Qi swallowed the Yin Yang Fish in one breath, while the Yin Yang Fish began to erode the Innate Cloud Qi in its fluid motions.

Not much technique involved, just pure understanding of one’s Fundamental Skill.

The Yin Yang Fish flowed incessantly with red representing vibrant life and white representing still death, eroding countless Innate Cloud Qi in its rotation.

While the Innate Cloud Qi, thin and originless yet continuous, seeped into the Yin Yang Fish, trying to prevent the life and death cycle between the two fish.

The sparring between Lu Zheng and Daoist Xiting, although lowkey and deliberately restrained, could not escape the keen senses of some Chixiao Temple experts due to their proximity.

Consequently, numerous Divine Thoughts crossed the void, beginning to sense the sparring situation between the two.

"It’s Xiting."

"Why has he started a fight?"

"What’s the situation?"

"The opponent is a junior from White Cloud Temple? Has he already learned Innate Cloud Qi?"

"Originless and endless, this Innate Cloud Qi is well utilized!"

"Who is this guy? His aura is concealed, yet absolutely not inferior to Xiting."

"Never seen him before, not the Yuanlin we’ve heard of. When did White Cloud Temple produce another genius, and a secular disciple at that?"

Earlier in the side hall, Master Changli, who knows the details, also guessed the reason for the sparring between Xiting and Lu Zheng.

"This guy is called Lu Zheng, an Outer Disciple from the Yuan Generation of White Cloud Temple. During the Spring Dharma Assembly this year, he stood alongside Yuanlin."

"Oh?"

"Indeed, that is rare."

"No wonder Xiting is thrilled; such peers who can spar with him nowadays are few."

"White Cloud Temple’s fortune is remarkable, first Yuanlin appears, and now another prodigy arises."

"Xiting is going to lose."

"Hmm?"

Everyone sensed this simultaneously and found that although Lu Zheng’s aura does not seem stronger than Xiting’s, the Innate Cloud Qi has already wrapped around the Yin Yang Fish, and with pervasive strands of Cloud Qi seeping in, the life-death Yin Yang cycle within the Yin Yang Fish has already begun to stutter.

As such, the Innate Cloud Qi remains originless and inexhaustible, while the Yin Yang Fish’s circulation becomes increasingly difficult, even showing signs of being gradually separated by the Cloud Qi.

"So quickly?"

"Xiting couldn’t even hold for one incense stick time?"

"This guy is frighteningly good!"

"Such a good Innate Cloud Qi, such a genius disciple from White Cloud Temple!"

Within the courtyard, Daoist Xiting of course also sensed such changes.

So, his hands moved forming seals again, deploying Chixiao Temple’s secret techniques, aiming to reintegrate the Yin Yang Fish and expel the Innate Cloud Qi from within.

However...

Yet no matter how he maneuvered, no matter the subtle operations, even small-scale explosions, he couldn’t change the gradual decomposition of the Yin Yang Fish.

In just one incense stick time, the Innate Cloud Qi had penetrated into the Yin Yang Fish, with the flow of Cloud Qi separating the life and death force merging the Yin Yang Fish, turning it into mere Yin Yang Qi.

Daoist Xiting couldn’t help but shake his head, letting out a breath, setting his hands down, and then the Yin Yang Qi within the Innate Cloud Qi dissipated into thin air.

"The junior brother’s cultivation is profound, and his Daoist Technique is marvelous, I am impressed," Daoist Xiting bowed.

"You’re too kind, senior brother." Lu Zheng returned the gesture.

Daoist Xiting exhaled again and then apologized to the three ladies, Liu Qingyan nodded, Shen Ying nodded, but Si Lingxi stayed silent.

Daoist Xiting felt no dissatisfaction, but couldn’t help but ask again, "So my grandmaster Yun Ning was truly defeated by the junior brother?"

Lu Zheng nodded, "Though Master Yun Ning has a profound Dao Practice, the victory was sheer luck."

Daoist Xiting was silent, while Lu Zheng spoke, "Since it’s my first time at Chixiao Temple, would senior brother be kind enough to show me around?"

"Of course, naturally." Daoist Xiting nodded repeatedly and then respectfully gestured to the three ladies, "Junior brother, ladies, please!"

"Please!" Lu Zheng smiled.
