Unlocking The Easy Mode Of Cultivation After Getting Married
Chapter 32: Why Make Things Difficult for a Salted Fish?_132 Chapter 32: Why Make Things Difficult for a Salted Fish?_1
Zhao Xiaoxiao frowned and said, "Senior Brother Deng, you only saw the tip of the iceberg and judged Brother Qin's character too arbitrarily. Although Brother Qin's cultivation may be a bit lower, he has worked hard to achieve it. He has never troubled you, so why do you need to speak about him in such a tone?"
"Right and wrong are clear, everyone has their own opinions. I'm just saying what everyone already recognizes...Forget it, talking more is pointless."
Deng Taishan leaped into the air, his hands forming sword signs, and the flying sword beneath his feet turned into a streak of light, sending out a sword aura, "Since it's the grand competition, let's decide the victor by strength!"
Whoosh——!
Zhao Xiaoxiao's complexion changed.
"Be careful, Brother Qin!"
She raised her long sword and swung it, hitting the flying sword with a blossoming sword flower, causing it to be knocked away. Deng Taishan fell from the air, catching the deflected sword and slashing again in one swift motion.
Ding~
The sword technique carried the force of a mountain, extremely powerful, and forced Zhao Xiaoxiao to retreat a few steps.
Qingxuan Peak primarily cultivates the Ping Shan sword technique, which emphasizes grandiose moves. Once mastered, it has the power to break mountains.
Although Deng Taishan has not yet stepped into the realm of sword momentum, his Establishing Foundation Stage of the fourth level is enough to defeat Zhao Xiaoxiao.
"It's dangerous."
On the high platform, the various Peak Masters could naturally see the situation clearly.
"Not necessarily." Liu Mengxian's lips parted slightly.
Her gaze fixed on Qin Changqing.
No sooner had the words left her lips than a massive wave of spiritual Qi rushed towards Deng Taishan, shattering his sword move in an instant.
Bang!——
Deng Taishan was sent flying.
"Sigh~ Senior Brother Deng, we're all salted fish. Why do salted fish have to make things difficult for each other?" Qin Changqing stood with his sword in hand, looking as casual as a master.
"Impossible!"
Lu Jingtian exclaimed in astonishment.
The other Peak Masters were also somewhat unsettled.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAn Establishing Foundation Stage first level cultivator had repelled a fourth level cultivator?
Although such a thing is not impossible, it still seemed rather strange when it happened to Qin Changqing.
Among the people present, only Mo Jiuzhou and Liu Mengxian knew the full story.
Mo Jiuzhou knew well the terror of Heavenly Dao's Establishing Foundation. Deng Taishan's mastery of the Ping Shan sword technique was not high, and he belonged to the type who followed the rules. Plus, he had lost some strength after clashing with Zhao Xiaoxiao, so this outcome was not surprising.
If he couldn't even reach this level, this Heavenly Dao Establishing Foundation wouldn't be worth pursuing by so many talented cultivators from major Sects.
As for Liu Mengxian...
He looked towards the Sect Leader and began to have a few guesses about the latter's strength.
Liu Mengxian had never interacted with Qin Changqing, but she was able to discern the truth from just a glance. Her strength was extraordinary indeed.
"Brother Mo, is Qin Changqing concealing his true cultivation?" Unable to restrain herself, Mu Qingyun asked.
Separated by a secret realm, she couldn't see what was wrong with Qin Changqing.
Mo Jiuzhou just smiled without responding.
Some things didn't need an explanation.
The Heavenly Dao Establishing Foundation was of great importance, so Mo Jiuzhou had no intention of telling anyone except the Sect Leader.
"Uncle Mo." Liu Mengxian suddenly spoke, "Did he just reach the Establishing Foundation Stage?"
"Hehe~ Sect Leader, you have a keen eye."
Mo Jiuzhou's face lit up with a smile.
Seeing this, the other Peak Masters had some suspicions, but they wisely refrained from asking further.
Meanwhile, inside the secret realm.
Deng Taishan was no match for Qin Changqing.
No matter how hard he tried, he could not imagine that the weak Qin Changqing would turn out to be stronger than him!
Wasn't it said that Brother Qin from Xuanyi Peak hadn't even reached the Establishing Foundation stage?
Twisted! Who the hell started that rumor?!
Ding!——
The long sword fell.
Once again, Deng Taishan was knocked to the ground.
"Senior Brother Deng, you've lost." Qin Changqing raised his sword, smiling."You... despicable!" Deng Taishan gritted his teeth in anger, "A grand senior brother of Xuanyi Peak, and you're hiding your cultivation in the Sect Competition!"
Qin Changqing shrugged, "There's no rule against hiding one's strength in the competition, right? I think it's foolish for someone like you to rush over here without figuring anything out. Remember this when you venture out in the future: those who seem weak in cultivation may not necessarily be weaker than you. Now you only lost the competition, but if you were outside the sect and lost, it would cost you your life."
Deng Taishan was momentarily taken aback.
He seemed to have... overlooked this point.
In fact, the majority of sect disciples have rather simple ways of thinking.
They were taken into the sect when they were young and had been cultivating ever since, with little exposure to the outside world and its ways.
Many things would only become clear to them after they gained experience outside.
"Brother Qin is right," Zhao Xiaoxiao also said. "We shouldn't be careless when dealing with demonic beasts. If we encounter hostile cultivators, or even demon cultivators, we need to be even more cautious."
Deng Taishan was silent for a moment before tossing his Life Token hanging on his waist to Qin Changqing.
"I lost... I'll remember these words, next time I'll definitely beat you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he was teleported out of the secret realm.
"Heh, you won't have a chance next time." Qin Changqing wasn't bothered, as he handed the Life Token to Zhao Xiaoxiao, "Here."
Zhao Xiaoxiao quickly retreated two steps and shook her head, "I don't want it, I don't want it. Brother Qin saved me this time, how can I take the points?"
"Well... alright then."
Qin Changqing didn't refuse either. Regardless of how he accumulated points, he was ultimately hopeless.
Zhao Xiaoxiao had even less hope.
So it didn't matter who took the points.
Whoosh—
The Life Token transformed into a light and merged with Qin Changqing.
His points instantly jumped from 2000 to 3500.
It seemed that before Deng Taishan encountered them, he had already slain demonic beasts.
"Brother Qin, your cultivation must be at least at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment, right?"
Zhao Xiaoxiao curiously asked at this moment.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn her opinion, Brother Qin was not only knowledgeable but also stronger than her last encounter. Most importantly, he was kind to others, which was really great.
It's a pity that such a good senior brother wasn't from their Taixuan Peak.
Ah no, their senior sister was also very good to them.
"Secret." Qin Changqing smiled lightly, "You should remember too, always keep something in reserve when outside. This way, you won't be forced into a dead end."
"Yes! Junior sister will remember."
"That's good."
Qin Changqing nodded, "Let's go. Although our participation won't have much impact on the overall competition, since we're here, it's still good to explore more."
Zhao Xiaoxiao hesitated, "But this is the Sect's Grand Competition, wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to team up?"
Qin Changqing said, "Are we teaming up? We're just walking in the same direction."
Zhao Xiaoxiao chuckled, "Brother Qin is right."
The Sect's Grand Competition continued.
The Tianheng Secret Realm was vast, and it was teeming with countless demonic beasts.
Killing demonic beasts was the way for sect disciples to win, but it also posed a great risk.
Demonic beasts were not ordinary beasts; they absorbed the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth to cultivate, had opened their minds, and learned how to fight using their own and environmental advantages.
This resulted in a rapid decrease in the number of participating disciples each day.
"This is indeed the Sect's Grand Competition; dangers are hidden everywhere."
"The senior brother from Taixuan Peak just got teleported out, with several broken ribs. If it had been a second later, he might have lost his life."
"No choice, he encountered a Cloud Chasing Leopard. They're known to be difficult to deal with at the Foundation Establishment stage."
"The senior sister from Qingxuan Peak had a close call too."
"Half of the Xuanyi Peak disciples are already out, and it's only been five days."
"There's no choice. Xuanyi Peak's lineage is too short, with few outstanding people. In the Foundation Establishment stage, only Baiyun Mountain and Qin Lingshuang can hold their ground."
"Did you guys notice that Brother Qin hasn't been eliminated yet?"
The situation in the secret realm couldn't be followed in real-time; it randomly locked onto certain disciples' Life Tokens and then displayed their images. Apart from the elders, no one else could directly view every disciple's situation.
However, many people had seen the scene of Qin Changqing defeating Deng Taishan before.
Under their promotion, Qin Changqing had already become a 'master' of at least the fifth level of Foundation Establishment.
