Chapter 2: Techniques

  The sky was covered with a giant ape's arm, and the square sky painting halberd drew a cold light in the air, separating the airflow, carrying the momentum of opening mountains and splitting seas, directly stabbing the back of Mu Yuan. Under the infusion of true energy, the halberd's body flashed with a faint glow, and the blade was even more radiant, revealing its sharpness!

  Mu Yuan's reaction was swift, and the achievement of ten years of cultivating his energy instantly appeared at this moment. With a flick of his left arm, Chu Fei suddenly flew over like a kite in mid-air, falling out of the Tian Long army and landing among the Tian Du army with a long, piercing cry. Chu Fei let out a loud shout, thinking that even if he didn't die, he would at least suffer a broken bone or two. But unexpectedly, when he landed, a stream of energy emerged from the soles of his feet, and he stood firmly on the ground!

  Chu Fei was momentarily stunned, surrounded by the whistling great army, charging and killing, shouting and screaming, all fear of life and death disappeared, hot blood boiling, holding a long gun, following the great army's shouts and charges forward.

  Mu Yuan was already unable to attend to these, Gai Tiancheng's powerful aura on the spear had already reached his body, twisting his body and swinging his sword, instantly striking over a dozen swords, the sword light flashing, like dense stars filling the sky, fireworks exploding, all of them landing on the spear tip's cold edge!

  Every time they clashed, Mu Yuan felt a surge of strength transmitted from the iron sword in his hand into his body, and his arm went numb. He couldn't help but secretly exclaim, "This guy has incredible strength!"

  The Changsheng Palace's Tian Tuo Changsheng Sword Technique unfolded, using the power of borrowing and lending. With the help of the powerful true energy of Gaitian Cheng, he suddenly rose three feet higher, his arms spread wide like a large bird soaring, his iron armor cracked open, releasing all his strength, revealing the green Taoist robe inside, fluttering in the strong wind!

  "What a great swordsmanship!" Ge Tiancheng shouted, his halberd dancing with anger, the heavy and clumsy Fang Tian's halberd in his hand was like a treasured sword, nimble and quick, every point aimed at Mu Yuan's vital spots, if it hit, it would surely pierce through him, and his body would be shattered by the powerful force!

  At the same time, the soldiers below also drew their bows and shot arrows, like a rain of arrows shooting into the sky, making a sharp whistling sound that shook people's souls!

  "Good grief, if I were to fight in the midst of their large army, this one great general alone would be enough to strike me down, let alone all these soldiers! As they say, a multitude of ants can kill an elephant, but the enemy is not even an ant and I am not an elephant!" In the face of such danger, Muyuan's mind was not panicked, his wrist shook continuously, bursting out countless sword lights, like stars, shattering arrows, his feet tapping each other, his body shape constantly flying out of the formation!

  Mu Yuan was naturally talented, but his personality was somewhat sloppy. He had been in seclusion for ten years in the Longsheng Palace, cultivating his energy every day. Among the younger generation, he was quite famous, and what he took most pride in was his lightness skill!

  Changsheng Palace's Changsheng True Qi is divided into nine layers. Only when reaching the fifth layer can one possess the ability to ride the wind and soar through the skies. The previous four layers are merely about refining the body, making it light, and using true qi to shake off and leap into the air. The Changsheng Palace's Wind Control Technique is called Fengliu Shu (Wind Flow Technique). In the early stages, one can already control the wind to move around, although there are many limitations, it is still a flying technique!

  On the plain, the battle array charged and killed, the rolling strong wind howled endlessly. For Muyuan, it was truly like a fish in water, floating up and down in the wind, swaying with the wind, looking carefree and joyful beyond words!

  Gai Tiancheng was quite surprised, he was a serious and worldly martial artist, the light body technique was a widely spread qinggong method, equivalent to true energy borrowing power, gliding through the air like sliding, at most four or five zhang away before needing to land again. Like Mu Yuan's carefree suspension in mid-air, riding the wind, it seemed truly divine to him!

  But this was just a trick, they had only just begun to fight, Gai Tiancheng clearly sensed that his opponent's true energy cultivation was not as good as his own, and immediately took advantage of the situation to launch a swift pursuit!

  Gai Tiancheng made this powerful move, in terms of speed, it was even faster than Mu Yuan's Wind Control. A vast and majestic airflow followed Gai Tiancheng as he furiously rolled up, transforming into a dragon-like shape in mid-air. With a loud roar, he fiercely slashed downwards!

  The Imperial Family of the Heavenly Dragon Empire's martial art, the Divine Dragon's Roar to the Heavens Technique. Gai Tian Cheng has repeatedly established military achievements and won the favor of the Emperor, who bestowed upon him the heart method of the Divine Dragon's Roar to the Heavens. After more than 20 years of bitter cultivation, combined with his original cultivation, he is far superior to Mu Yuan!

  Mu Yuan suddenly made a sound in mid-air, the iron sword danced, and the Longsheng True Qi rushed in angrily. A layer of hazy blue light instantly appeared on the surface of the sword, and the tip of the sword protruded a sharp sword edge, swallowing and extending, like a spiritual snake, avoiding reality and entering emptiness, seeking gaps to break through, and striking down the illusory divine dragon in mid-air with several swords!

  The Shenlong Xiao Tian Jue is formidable, but after all, it's just a secular martial art. Compared to the orthodox Taoist heart method of the Changsheng Palace, it's far inferior in terms of vision and insight. Mu Yuan may be young, but his vision is not inferior to that of Ge Tiancheng, a general of a country. He has read countless classics in the Qingya Xuan of the Changsheng Palace, and although he hasn't experienced many battles himself, the experiences and insights of countless predecessors of the Changsheng Palace are not to be underestimated!

  The bugle blares with anger, the war drum beats wildly, and the heavenly army finally breaks through the Tianlong Army's crossbow lock, charging to the front of the formation. The two armies instantly become entangled in close combat, the sound of clashing weapons ringing out, as soldiers continually fall to the ground, blood flowing wildly!

  The Tianlong Army had Lin Qingduo commanding, who was not inferior to Gai Tiancheng himself taking the field. Gai Tiancheng calmed down and focused, without any distractions, and entangled with Mu Yuan in a fierce battle. In just a short moment, he firmly grasped the upper hand! The spear's light gradually suppressed the iron sword's edge!

  Muyuan under the powerful momentum of Gaitian, and the fierce offensive, a long sword was also swung with dense wind, although being suppressed by the opponent, but if you want to win, it's extremely difficult!

  This was Mu Yuan's first battle in his life. Although he had also sparred with his fellow disciples in the palace, they were all people of similar age and similar magical powers, and their swordsmanship was focused on subtle changes and precision. But today was different, his opponent's aura was like a rainbow, his true energy was like an ocean, every time Mu Yuan wanted to change his sword move, he was intercepted by the powerful and unmatched true energy, making him stumble and unable to move smoothly with his "Qingmu Shenmang" sword technique, he was furious!

  "You're also a great general of the country, almost forty years old, and you're competing with me, a little kid! Don't you know shame!" Mu Yuan scolded loudly, his words fierce and thunderous!

  Gai Tian burst out laughing and said, "On the battlefield, there is no distinction between the old and weak, nor between women and children. Since you've stepped onto the battlefield, you should have been prepared long ago!"

  As they spoke, the two exchanged blows again, causing Mu Yuan's arm to go numb and weak, and even his internal Longsheng True Qi was floating and unstable. He secretly thought, "I may not be able to match you in terms of martial arts, but I'm still a Taoist disciple after all, and I know some spells. What's the use of your strong martial arts?"

  With a thought, he vigorously summoned his true energy and struck out with over ten swords in succession, forcing back the Heaven Concealing Seal. His left hand secretly grasped a spell seal, his tongue burst forth with spring thunder, "Evil spirits, malevolent demons! Confuse the heart, disorder the spirit, bewilder the will!"
