Chapter 46: Force Shatters the True Seal

  "That old eunuch has a precious bow in his hand, I don't even think about using the Tianpeng Feather Transformation Great Method to fly away. And Mu Qingquan, Qi Zhongliang and Lu Jinggong are all strong inner practitioners. If the three of them join forces, I will be completely defeated."

  Jiangnan carefully sensed the breath of the four eunuchs of Tianbao, and soon discovered that something was amiss. The Tianbao eunuchs were only keeping within the range of the goose- calling bow, but had not approached, and instead fell behind.

  On the contrary, Mu Qingquan and the other three strong Nascent Soul cultivators charged forward to the very front, but these three were not on the same line, with some in front and others behind.

  He thought for a moment, and then understood the intentions of these people: "Looking at this situation, that old eunuch is helping Murong Qingquan's three men to suppress me with the Precious Bow, controlling my Tianpeng Feather Transformation Great Technique, and pinning me to the ground. This allows them to hunt and kill me. They want to hunt and kill me, but instead they're giving me an opportunity! I'd like to see whether it's you who will hunt and kill me, or if it's me who will hunt and kill you!"

  Jiangnan continued to rush forward, and as time passed, the distance between Mu Qingquan's three people grew farther and farther apart. Although Lu Jinggong's cultivation was lower, the unique footwork of the Lu Hou Mansion was the fastest, and he actually ran to the front, while Mu Qingquan, who had the deepest cultivation, came second, and Qi Zhongliang was last.

  "This kid's footsteps have slowed down!"

  Lu Jingong suddenly felt the aura of Jiangnan getting closer and closer, and he couldn't help but feel great joy. He quickened his pace and rushed forward with a loud laugh: "Brother Mu, Brother Qi, it seems that this time I will be the first to succeed! This kid will definitely not escape my grasp!"

  "Lu Xiong, don't kill him yet! I want to avenge my brother personally!" Mu Qingquan's voice echoed through the mountains.

  Lu Jinggong burst out laughing: "Brother Mu, rest assured! I only plan to break all his tendons and bones, render his cultivation useless, capture him alive, and hand him over to you and Brother Qi for disposal!"

  Jiang Nan suddenly stopped in his tracks, calmed his breathing, turned around and stood quietly in the mountain forest, with a calm expression, looking back at the way he came.

  After a few breaths, Lu Jingong rushed out of the mountain forest, and with one effort, he charged forward, coldly saying: "Jiangnan Jiang Zikuan, do you know why I want to teach you a lesson first? It's because you hit someone from my Lu family, so I also want to beat you up badly, but not kill you. If I killed you, Qi brother and Mu brother...

  "Cut the crap!"

  Jiangnan burst into a loud shout, taking a big step forward, like a fierce tiger out of its cage, with evil winds blowing in his face, the tiger's roar echoed through the mountains and forests, as soon as he broke free from his prison, he would devour people!

  "Aren't you hurt?"

  Lu Jingong's eyes narrowed, he let out a loud shout, quickened his pace, and in an instant, he traversed seven or eight zhang. His hands changed and transformed endlessly, his fist intent was like a straight road stretching to the foot of Jiangnan, advancing forward, I am invincible, unmatched in bravery, furiously shouting: "The Lu family's heart method, one road unfolding, within forty-eight steps, no one can match me under heaven! Jiang Zikuan..."

  Before he finished speaking, the sound of waves suddenly rose, and the fierce tiger disappeared. Instead, a long river surged forward, sweeping away his fist intent with a loud crash, leaving him greatly astonished: "The Jiangyue Broken Wave Technique of the Qi Wang Fu? How did you learn this lost art?"

  The martial arts that Jiangnan uses is absolutely the Jiangyue Pohan Quan of his Qi family, with both form and spirit being wonderful, even more exquisite than the orthodox Jiangyue Pohan Quan. How could he not be surprised?

  Sigh——

  The true energy of Jiangnan transformed into a mighty river, which suddenly burst into flames and turned into a fire dragon. The bright moon in the river transformed into a blazing sun, being held in the mouth of the fire dragon. This was even more astonishing than the orthodox Jiangyue Broken Wave Technique, sweeping away its mysterious and cunning yin-yang, becoming extremely overbearing, and drowning out the sound of "Hūshì" ( Route of Reverence) with a loud whoosh!

  Flames forced people, hot air rolled, in Jiangnan's this move also mixed with the artistic conception of Dragon-Tiger-Elephant Power, dragon hums unceasingly, and suddenly it will increase the power of Jiangyue Broken Wave Fist several times!

  Lu Jingong hastily parried, and the god of fire pounced over, with a hiss, setting his clothes and hair ablaze, burning him to a charred blackness. The fire dragon then pounced over, breaking through Lu Jingong's defenses in one move, heavily striking his chest.

  Lu Jinggong let out a muffled grunt as his body was sent flying into the air, falling backwards.

  "Didn't all of this kill him? The internal protective aura is truly extraordinary, it's indeed not ordinary!"

  Jiang Nan was shocked, and a pair of black wings suddenly appeared behind him. With a flap of his wings, he chased after the black light, and the sound of an eagle's cry echoed through the air. He kicked out with one foot in mid-air, sending Lu Jinggong plummeting straight down to the ground!

  Lu Jingong fell to the ground, smashing rocks and stones flying everywhere.

  The figure descended like a meteor, and with one foot heavily trampled on Lu Jinggong's chest. A loud crash was heard, and large boulders weighing over 100 kg flew in all directions. The two fell to the ground, revealing a deep pit of seven or eight feet!

  "The road leads all the way to heaven!"

  Lu Jingong let out a loud shout, and an unmatched powerful palm force burst forth from the great pit, like a heavenly road that stretched from underground to high in the sky, as if it could reach the legendary Heavenly Court!

  Jiangnan was lifted by this majestic palm power and fell several meters away.

  Lu Jingong leapt out of the big pit, his hair disheveled, his clothes tattered, roaring incessantly, and rushed towards Jiangnan in a frenzied manner.

  He threw a punch, and the powerful aura of his cultivation burst out. With his strong body possessing the power of the Four Symbols and Five Tigers, this punch stirred up a fierce gust of wind that even lifted up the stones on the ground, sending them flying towards Jiangnan like raindrops, an awe-inspiring sight!

  Jiangnan charged forward with the wind, and countless rocks had not yet reached his feet when they seemed to have suffered an invisible blow, bursting into pieces with a loud crash. At the same time, Lu Jingong's fist also burst out, and the wild wind he stirred up suddenly stopped. The rocks hovering in mid-air immediately flew back at an even faster speed, crashing towards Lu Jingong!

  Bang!

  Two fists collided, like two armies clashing, drums beating loudly, shocking and deafening. The rocks beneath their feet shattered into dust. Lu Jinggong took a step back, his bones rattling from Jiangnan's punch, his face flushed red, his heart racing with shock: "How can his strength surpass mine? I'm the stronger one...!"

  The majestic steps of Jiangnan are approaching, the iron horse is galloping on the hard bridge, one punch after another is thundering away, the fist wind is strong and overbearing, one punch can even plow out a ditch on the mountain stone ground. He possesses the power of the Five Elephants, equivalent to the combined strength of five giant elephants, how magnificent! Even more so than Lu Bu's mighty steed Red Hare!

  Bang! Bang! Bang!

  Lu Jinggong retreated step by step, his face getting redder and redder, after retreating more than a dozen steps, his face was so red it seemed like he could bleed!

  "My defensive barrier has been broken!"

  His face changed dramatically, and he was shocked in his heart: "How is this possible? A mere mixed-yuan boundary child, how can I break through my protective body?"

  In this brief moment, Jiang Nan used brute force to break through his protective true aura, shattering the aura within his body!

  The protective true aura is broken, which is the most dangerous for those with a strong inner aura. After the aura is dispersed, it will revert to its original state as true energy, equivalent to falling back to the Hunyuan realm, and one must restart their arduous cultivation to re-form the inner aura.

  This result is really unacceptable, to know that Jiang Nan has just entered the mixed yuan boundary, while Lu Jingong is a genius of the Lu Hou Mansion, already an inner gang strongman, with a true gang bodyguard, but in Jiang Nan's hands, he was defeated and his bodyguard was broken in just a few moves!

  "Don't panic, brother! I'm here to help you!"

  The sound of the clear spring came, rapidly approaching, Jiang Nan's face sank, his fist wind became even more powerful and vigorous, like a giant hammer of tens of thousands of kilograms, stirring up the air, issuing a series of explosive sounds, one after another, pounding towards Lu Jingong, with hard colliding against hard, force against force in a brutal contest, forcing Lu Jingong to collide with him again and again!

  "Quick battle and quick decision, must settle one before Mu Qingquan and others arrive!"

  "Kill me!"

  Suddenly, Jiang Nan and Lu Jinggong abruptly separated, Jiang Nan's body swayed back and forth, a flush of red appeared on his face, and then returned to normal.

  Lu Jinggong's face turned bright red to the extreme, and suddenly a loud cracking sound came from inside his body, like a pile of rotten meat on the ground. He was actually beaten to pieces by Jiangnan with a heavy blow, shattering all 206 bones in his body, completely killing him!

  Sigh——

  The clear spring water rushed over quickly, just in time to see Lu Jinggong being shaken into a puddle of mud, and couldn't help but take a cold breath.

  With his cultivation in the Mixed Yuan Realm, he had never seen such a thing before, killing an Inner Gang strongman.

  A martial artist is not necessarily unable to challenge a higher level, with the weak defeating the strong. Because everyone's innate qualities are different, their cultivation methods are different, and their willpower in martial arts also has its ups and downs. Even combat experience, physical condition, timing, location, harmony among people, etc., can all affect the outcome of a fight. It is not uncommon for someone with a higher level to be defeated by someone with a lower level.

  However, the internal aura boundary is different. The strong internal aura has no true energy in the body, and all the true energy has been completely transformed into aura. Moreover, the protective body aura is so powerful that knives and guns cannot enter, and axes and hammers cannot hurt, it's simply an iron man!

  Compared to the Mixed Yuan boundary, the Inner Gang boundary has already made a qualitative leap. The Mixed Yuan boundary can only be called a high-ranking martial artist, while the Inner Gang boundary can be called a strong martial artist. Therefore, crossing levels is a very difficult thing.

  Jiang Nan killed Lu Jingong, a powerful inner sect disciple, in just a few breaths, not even giving him time to react, far beyond his expectations.

  But this ending is reasonable for Jiangnan.

  Firstly, in terms of pure physical quality, he possesses the Yuanyang Godfire and the Youming Godwater that have refined his body, making it strong and powerful, with the power of the Five Elements. Although Lu Jinggong has cultivated the Inner Cycle, he only possesses the power of the Four Symbols and the Five Tigers, which is inferior to him in terms of strength.

  Secondly, his true energy quality is extremely high, almost comparable to Gang Qi. Furthermore, with the support of an exceptionally strong spiritual intention, his martial power has increased exponentially, making his combat strength absolutely not inferior to Lu Jingong's, and possibly even higher!

  Apart from this, the mind methods he cultivated, which one is not above Lu Jingong's? Not to mention the Demon Prison Mysterious Fetus Scripture, even the Dragon Tiger Elephant Power and Jiang Yue Broken Wave Scripture are above the absolute learning of the Lu Hou Mansion!

  If saying Neigang is stronger than a Mixed Yuan high hand is a qualitative change, then he has already completed this qualitative change ahead of time!

  Wait for him to refine his Qi into a vortex and complete it, after cultivating the inner vortex, it will be the second transformation, at that time Jiangnan's strength will have another leap-like improvement!

  "Lu died, you go bury him!"

  Mo Qingquan snapped back to his senses in the blink of an eye, let out a long whistle, and swung both arms backward. His palms slapped together fiercely, instantly creating two enormous handprints on the ground, each over ten feet deep and several meters wide. The massive counterforce propelled him even faster towards Jiangnan. His true energy left his body as he pushed forward with both palms, and in an instant, countless giant trees materialized from his true energy, bursting into the air with a deafening roar, and charging towards Jiangnan like a mountain landslide!

  He could see that Jiang Nan had used a heavy hand to kill Lu Jinggong in a short period of time, but Lu Jinggong's counterattack had also made him unstable, and now was the best opportunity to deal with him!
