Chapter 19: the Duo, against the sect
"It belongs to us" A man in white robe said to Cheng Qiang
Cheng Qiang looked at the person and said "The one who killed him is us, so how does it belong to you?"
The man and a few other people behind him started laughing at his questions
After stopping his laugh, the man in white robe said "fool, this is not you children's play. Leave your loot here or get killed"
Both sides glared at each other, as Cheng Qiang didn't even try to move
What happened?
It all started when the elder gave them safety seals so if they get into danger, they would be teleported by his side.
After giving the seal, he ordered "Go out now, either you move alone or in the group, it's up to you. From this moment onwards, you all will walk your own path till the time I call you back, which is around 8 months."
Thus, Mo Ru and Long Feng walked out together as they both wanted to still see who the best is
As for Tian Zemin, he tried to call Hu Shuchun with him but she showed him a middle finger and said "FUCK OFF"
Thus Tian Zemin also parted his way all alone
As for Hu Shuchun and Cheng Qiang, both of them were back to how they were in the past.
They formed a duo and go out in hunting
In just a month they had killed various beasts of different sizes and level but so far they were not able to get any beast with its beast core.
After day and night's hard work, they finally found a beast of green grade, a green spider of giant size. But when they killed the beast they found out a beast core and at this time someone came out of nowhere
And this is the present situation
A few disciples of some other sect, they are a group, against the duo (hu Shuchun and Cheng Qiang)
There are a total of 7 disciples from the Immortal Great Sword Sect, trying to snatch away the hard work of Hu Shuchun and Cheng Qiang
5 of them were at spirit realm, which Hu Shuchun and Cheng Qiang were not worried about but they were worried about the other 2
One of them is Chang Huan, who is at the 2nd stage of the celestial realm and the other one is, Ding Jiang who is also at Celestial Realm but at the first stage, still, it's something big
Surely, the scene says that Cheng Qiang and Hu Shuchun are at a big disadvantage as Hu Shuchun is at peak spirit realm and Cheng Qiang is at the first stage of Celestial Realm
First stage Celestial Realm vs Second Stage Celestial Realm, sounds not that much of a deal but that one mere difference of that stage is equal to the difference between Mars and Moon
A single step up in stage is way bigger than you could think of, which Cheng Qiang knew and he could feel the massive amount of Qi inside Chang Huang
But don't forget guys, Cheng Qiang has a black grade level of beast fused with his soul. If worst comes to worst, he would still give a hard fight to Chang Huang, give the massive amount of difference
So, the duo didn't back down and took the beast core inside their storage ring and said "Kill us, if you want this beast core"
. . .
A few kilometers away is a group of another sect
Those disciples looked at the direction where Cheng Qiang and others were
"Senior, should we help those juniors?" A disciple asked as he bowed to a man in front of him
"The world is full of dangers; if they don't know how to back down they will never reach high. Let them do what they want, but if things do go out of hands, then send someone to end the fight" The man said to other disciples
They had a dragon symbol on their robe, which means they are from "Flaming Dragon Sect"
A sect which no one wants to mess with as they are literally no.1, even their outer disciples are at peak or mid Soul realm, so we could guess just what the level of those inner disciples and Core disciple could be, right?
. . .
*booooom*
The fight between the duo, Cheng Qiang and Hu Shuchun vs disciples of the Immortal Great sword sect has begun
Cheng Qiang smashed his wooden stick on the ground, shacking the whole ground and sending a big wave of wild wind around him fused with his heavy aura
In that second those disciples knew that the person in front of them is a Celestial realm martial artist
The 5 spirit realm disciples hide behind those seniors who were at the Celestial Realm
"hmmm, so you are also at the celestial realm, but still weaker than me," Chang Huang said to Cheng Qiang
*whooooosh*
And then Chang Huan also released his 2nd Stage Celestial Realm aura which wrapped the aura of Cheng Qiang
But Cheng Qiang didn't back down under pressure. He fused his aura with the beast inside him and *booom* released a massive amount of Qi and walked towards Chang Huan
Chang Huan didn't worry much about it, as the amount of Qi released by Cheng Qiang was really higher than a normal First Stage Celestial Realm Martial Artist but still, it was nowhere near his level
*step*
*whoosh*
Both of them walked towards each other and faced against each other. No one was ready to back down
"So you don't want to listen peacefully huh" Chang Huan said with a glare
At the other side, Ding Jiang also released his Qi/aura and tried to overpower Cheng Qiang but at that time, Hu Shuchun also released her aura with a glare
*BOOOOOOM*
Her aura was at the peak of the Spirit Realm, just waiting for a chance to break the door of the Celestial realm.
This made those 5 spirit realm disciples full of shock, as they were at 4 or 5th stage of Spirit realm but still, the amount of qi and aura they were up against was equal to a celestial realm one.
It was clear that they can't be even supported in the upcoming battle
Ding Jiang removed his focus from Cheng Qiang to Hu Shuchun
Hu Shuchun said "I am your opponent"
And then the battle took place
Cheng Qiang put his wooden stick inside his storage ring and took his sword art, as he still needs to get more experience in a sword fight, so it was a good opportunity.
"10 streaks of light" Chang Huan yelled as he waved his sword at Cheng Qiang
10 lights flashed up around his sword, each shaped like his own sword and then landed on Cheng Qiang
"1000 slashed of sword" Cheng Qiang said in a calm tone as he waved his sword as fast as possible
*WHOOOOOOOSH*
*BOOOOOM*
10 streaks of light against 1000 slashes of the sword, who will win
If we are to talk about power, just raw power, then its 10 streaks of light that has more power but if we are to talk about real skills and control over power, its 1000 slashes of the sword
For each streak of light, 100 slashes were there
Thus, a big destruction took place which destroyed the whole ground between Cheng Qiang and Chang Huan
After this, different spells like; thunder meteor, a flaming sword, etc-etc, and many other sword skills were used one after another by each of them
But even then, Cheng Qiang wasn't down.
Chang Huan one the other side was shocked to see this, he had thought that it will only take a few seconds to kill him but things were not as he had planned
Was he weak? Nope
Were his attacks weaker than others? Nope
Then why is Cheng Qiang able to stand up against him? Simple, Cheng Qiang has much greater control over his Qi than him
So, his every strike are made with zero loss in Qi which gives him a huge advantage as he could use his Qi-based skills one after another, whereas Chang Huan, who has low Qi control lost most of his Qi in few attacks
He was literally wasting his Qi for nothing
And this is what happens when you have strength but don't know how to wield it
Still, it doesn't mean that Cheng Qiang could win easily and that is something he himself knew, so all he could do is to drag the battle longer and expect a little (the big one) help from Hu Shuchun
On Hu Shuchun's side-
Hu Shuchun knew what Cheng Qiang is trying to pull or say to her, so she didn't want to waste much time
She got all serious and took her scarf out
"hmm, girl are you trying to strip?" Ding Jiang asked with a mockery and evil smile
But little did he know that he will soon see the door of death
*whoosh*
Flashback-
Qin Shi Huang told them that there are 3 types of running, shadow step And each of these steps is as light as feather and as fast as you could ever imagine
Shadow steps, as the name says, a user needs to run so fast as if he is a shadow of someone, who will always be behind him and with no noise
Also, he told them that this skill is a purely physical energy-based skill, not Qi-based
At first, both of them, Hu Shuchun and Cheng Qiang didn't agree as this was something impossible. Every immortal used his qi to do skills and everything else, including fast running but here he said its all physical strength-based
But then again, it's Qin Shi Huang who told them, so maybe it was true
Thus she trained day and night while carrying weight on her shoulder and moving here and there, sometimes, even trying to run underwater while the weight on her body
And in the next few months, she did see some great results, not on her physical strength and Qi control but on her speed and reflexes also
But still, it was not as fast as the speed Qin Shi Huang talked about, so she kept on practicing
And after some time, Cheng Qiang also joined her.
Thus right now, Hu Shuchun may not be as fast as we have seen in those anime's but still, if we add her Qi with her practice on the shadow step so far? Well you are gonna have some good hard time to catch her
*whoosh*
Hu Shuchun disappeared and appeared behind Ding Jiang
He still didn't know what happened but he sensed something evil behind him. He was, no doubt, at celestial realm but still, he is nothing compared to her control over Qi
Thus, she waved her scarf around Ding Jiang and wrapped him inside it. Making a shape of cacoon
Soon, the cloth kept on tightening as he tried to struggle free.
*boooom*
*Boooom*
*boooom*
He used various attacks spell but the scarf, which was like a piece of fabric just a few seconds before are now way harder than any mountains.
He couldn't do anything against it
And soon, silence falls inside the scarf
*whoosh*
She opened her scarf and then a body falls down on the ground. Was he dead? Nope
Hu Shuchun didn't want to cause some big problems as who knows what big family he is from and she is also not inside her Sect or city.
So maybe they would try to harm her family, so she didn't try to kill him. She only made him faint due to less oxygen
After that, she stopped at the side of Cheng Qiang
"What? Where is Ding Jiang?" Chang Huan asked as he couldn't believe that his friend is nowhere near him
And at that time, when he scanned the area he saw his friend lying on the ground, still alive
*stun*
He just couldn't believe what he was seeing right now. His friend was at the celestial realm and the girl in front of him was at peak spirit realm, so how was she able to beat him so easily and this fast?
"Want to continue this fight? Or leave alive?" Cheng Qiang asked him
Chang Huan didn't know what to do here, as he was sure that the girl in front of him is at peak spirit realm but still his friend was on ground faint, so it means that somehow the girl is hiding her strength
"Fall back" Chang Huang yelled as he took Ding Jiang and ran away
Seeing them run away, Hu Shuchun falls down on the ground and started breathing heavily
"Are you okay?" Cheng Qiang asked
"Yeah, somehow" she replied
In truth, Hu Shuchun had almost used all of her Qi in trapping Ding Jiang inside her scarf. So she could only help Cheng Qiang a little and fake that she is all right.
Which somehow was accepted by Chang Huan but still if they had failed, you know what the result would be?
. . .
At the Flaming Dragon Sect's group side
They all were shocked to see the result and the fight. They thought that the Duo would surely lose as they don't have any type of advantage, neither numbers nor power
But still, by using their brain and skills they were out all right.
A man in their group laughed and said "Well-Well, seems like the Immortal Courage sect finally have some talented student except that Tian Zemin"
. . .
What more will come now?
Will there be more fight?
And what about that beast core?
. . .
