Chapter Seventy: The Magical Treasure of Debating with Words Reveals Its Power

  Before the game, the two men fought without distinction, and King Guang and a group of practitioners watched with bated breath. One took out pastries and fine wine to gather with friends and watch, while another searched for tables, chairs, and benches to invite women to sit down and chat. The impatient ones wanted to rush onto the field and kill their way through, while the patient ones only hoped that the other side would fight a bit longer, so they could rest themselves.

  Thousands of strange and wonderful things, thousands of battles with drums beating in succession, bugles blaring. The arms of the drummers are sore, the cheeks of the bugle players are swollen. Tens of thousands of soldiers on both sides stand stupidly watching the two men fight.

  After dozens of rounds of fighting, the man riding the crow let out a loud roar: "You're formidable, Taoist priest! I'm no match for you!" With that, he patted the large crow under him, and it spread its wings to fly high, returning to their own camp.

  Who would let him go, the Qī Niú (Riding Ox) Practitioner? "Don't leave, stay and give me your life to delight in." As soon as he finished speaking, the Ox Demon's four hooves stirred up wind, stepped on empty air, and chased after the Crow Taoist.

  The crow Taoist had already planned in his heart, running forward while watching the back with the corner of his eye. Seeing the cow rider catching up, he suddenly felt joyful. After estimating the distance and seeing the opponent catch up, he switched to holding a single sword in one hand, took out a copper ingot from the leather pouch at his waist, turned around and threw it.

  The cow-riding Qi-refining cultivator was hot on his heels, and just as he was about to catch up, a yellow light suddenly flew towards him. He had no time to dodge, and the copper ingot hit him squarely on the head, making a loud "thwack" sound. The cultivator's head spun, and his ears rang loudly, leaving him disoriented. Unable to grasp the cow's horns, he let out a loud cry and fell onto the cow demon's back, fleeing towards their original formation.

  This was the crow's trick to succeed, and it burst into loud laughter. The crow spread its wings, and thousands of maggots fell from its wings and drilled towards the cowherd.

  "Haha! You'd better run away and leave your life for me to enjoy!" The crow Taoist repeated what the other party had just said, and suddenly felt refreshed in his heart. After speaking, he swung his double swords continuously, wanting to chop down the cow-riding Taoist.

  Just as he was about to cut down the Qi Practitioner riding a cow, a gemstone suddenly flew through the air and hit the twin swords of Wu Ya Dao Ren. A loud explosion was heard, and flames rolled in, engulfing Wu Ya in a ball of fire. The crow let out a mournful cry as it shook back and forth in mid-air before falling to the ground.

  A series of changes took place in just a few breaths, and the practitioners only had time to take a deep breath. However, after Wang Guang got excited on the city wall for a while, he suddenly discovered his own enemy, so he jumped down from the city wall to the front of the two armies.

  "Humph! You wicked woman, come out quickly to meet your death. Your sneak attack and injuring people is truly shameful." The female Qi cultivator who had just been rescued by the cow-riding Daoist shouted loudly while brandishing the siege hammer in her hand.

  "Are you the Daoist? Good! Good! Good! I was just thinking of finding you to cause trouble, but I didn't expect you to jump out yourself. Don't blame me for killing you this time." A female Qi practitioner appeared from the opposite side, with a pure and innocent face, riding a five-colored deer, holding two mandarin duck knives. She wore a plain white robe, with a water-fire silk belt around her waist. The horns of the five-colored deer were covered in gems, and the mandarin duck knives emitted a faint white light that quivered slightly. Her pale face was frosty, and her big watery eyes stared at Wang Guang, exuding anger."

  "What trouble are you looking for with General Ben? Last time you ambushed General Ben, I didn't blame you, now you're being reasonable?" Wang Guang shouted strangely, his foot treading on air as he swung the battering ram at her head.

  The female practitioner on the five-petaled deer let out a cold snort, and with a flash of her mandarin duck knife, she directly blocked Wang Guang. The practitioner riding the cow also took advantage of the opportunity to escape back to their own formation.

  Two men fought for three to five rounds, only to hear the sound of clashing metal a few times. The iron-made battering ram was struck by the mandarin duck knife several times and was chipped into pieces. Wang Guang didn't rush, he discarded the broken pieces and condensed two new battering rams from the red copper sand to counterattack and fight with his opponent again.

  "You little witch, aren't you having an affair with that cow-riding kid? Otherwise, why would you save him twice?" Wang Guang sneered, trying to humiliate her with his words.

  "Daoist, don't speak like that." The female Qi cultivator on the Five Flower Deer's back was so angry that her cheeks turned bright red and her cherry lips trembled. "I am a Qi cultivator of the Hundred Beasts Sect, I have never killed innocent lives, nor have I robbed or stolen others' property, and I do not cultivate any evil demonic techniques. How can you say I'm a witch? If you slander me, I won't spare you when I report back to my sect."

  "I am a disciple of the Hundred Beasts Sect, but unlike you One Qi Sect, I don't enjoy killing and know what shame is." The female cultivator on the Five-Petaled Deer looked at Wang Guang with disdain: "You are all worldly, bloodthirsty villains who have done everything - arson, murder, robbery, rape, adultery, kidnapping... Which one haven't you done? As evil demons, you dare to slander the righteous sects. It's clear that you don't have a conscience and only know how to cause trouble. Having cultivators like you in this world is truly a shame to all fellow practitioners."

  "Boundless Heavenly Venerable!" Wang Guang's face turned red with rage upon hearing these words. "This humble way doesn't need you to lecture, even if I say black is white and point at a deer as a horse, it's none of your business. Haven't you slaughtered wantonly? It's truly laughable to the extreme. You riding the five-colored deer is enslavement, swallowing the heavenly spiritual energy is plundering, eating the spiritual valley and drinking the spiritual spring is gaining without labor. What difference is there between this and what I do? Could it be that you have never killed a single demonic beast? They also possess wisdom and souls, what difference is there with humans?"

  "This remark made the female Qi practitioner on the Five-flower Deer furious: 'Taoist, this is sophistry. We Qi practitioners absorb the essence of the sun and moon, and take in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth - this is common sense. Although demonic beasts have souls, they don't have much wisdom. I eat Spiritual Grains and drink Spiritual Springs for survival - how can that be considered robbery?'"

  "Hah! You demoness are at a loss for words, don't try to put on a moral cloak for yourself. I kill people too, it's just for survival, so why did I become an evil demon? Are you not?" As he said this, Wang Guang sneered and took the opportunity to throw the siege hammer in his hand towards the female Qi practitioner.

  "How much wisdom do those demonic beasts have? It's just instinct. Moreover, they're not human, can't be considered a race, I..." The female cultivator hadn't finished speaking when the incoming battering ram suddenly exploded, sending copper sand flying everywhere. Who could still care about talking at this point?

  A female Taoist, she saw her throw the Mandarin duck knife in her hand into the air, spewing out a cluster of five-color smoke and injecting it into the double knives. The double knives shook, ding-dong-dang, and resisted the heavy red copper sand to one side. She glared at Wang Guang fiercely, stretched out her hand to grab the gemstone on the antlers of the five-flower deer, and then threw it at Wang Guang.

  The gemstone exploded, and the swirling smoke and fire rushed towards Wang Guangyuan. The Taoist was not in a hurry, but instead scattered the siege hammer, transforming it into rotating copper sand that ground down the smoke and fire into nothingness.

  "You're a formidable witch, I won't fight you today." Seeing the female practitioner on the Five Flower Deer pull out another gemstone to throw at him, he let out a strange cry and turned to leave.

  "Don't go, today I want to make it clear to you that I am not a demon girl, and the Beast Sect is not a gathering place for evil and shameless people like you." The female cultivator gritted her teeth and chased after him tightly, wishing she could grab Wang Guang and persuade him with her words.

  Seeing the other party chasing after him, Wang Guang was secretly delighted. This guy had stolen a gourd and plugged it up, then patted the gourd and shouted: "If you chase me again, I'll slaughter you!"

  What did the female Qi practitioner on the Five Flower Deer hear from Wang Guang? She thought that Wang Guang had no means to escape, so she was still furious and drove the Five Flower Deer to chase after him.

  "Look at the poor Taoist's treasure." Seeing that the other party was still chasing after him, Wang Guang suddenly turned around and slapped the gourd on his waist.

  A black light as thick as an infant's arm burst out of the gourd, and this black light didn't change at all, it just rushed straight up. The female practitioner took out a gemstone to blast it, and swung her double knives to block it, but it was completely useless.

  Dark light entwined, fell on the Mandarin Duck Knife, and in an instant, it corroded two Mandarin Duck Knives empty. It also pierced through the defensive seal hastily set up by the female Qi practitioner and landed on her body.

  The female practitioner on the Five Flower Deer felt only a black light falling on her, with no pain and no shock, thinking that the opponent's magic was useless. Suddenly, she felt her internal energy rapidly shrinking, followed by a dizziness in her lower abdomen, as if her soul was shaking and about to be withdrawn into the sea of qi in her lower abdomen.

  "What kind of magical treasure is this?" The female Qi practitioner was greatly shocked in her heart, and her magical powers could not calm down the turmoil. She felt that her dantian energy sea was on the verge of collapse, how could she still dare to continue chasing? She turned around her mount and wanted to return to her own camp.

  "This treasure of mine is still nameless, and you don't need to know." With that, he rubbed his hands together and unleashed the Golden Claw Divine Ability, sending two large golden hands towards the female Qi Practitioner.

  This female practitioner was also a decisive master, seeing that she couldn't mobilize her magical powers and didn't have time to pull off the gemstone on the five-flower deer's horn, she let out a sorrowful cry. Suddenly, her silver teeth shattered, and a thumb-sized hole exploded open on top of her head. A white light drilled out from inside and flew southward. She had actually used a secret technique to separate her soul from her body.

  "Don't even think about escaping." Wang Guang sneered, and another black light emerged from the gourd. This black light was colorless and odorless, but it had an endless killing aura that shot up into the sky, catching up to the female cultivator's soul in the blink of an eye.

  "Brother, spare her soul and give me some face?" A voice came from the Great Qi Imperial Camp, followed by a treasure pearl falling onto the soul, emitting boundless brilliant light to block Wang Guang's killing move.

  "Fine! I'll give you some face." Wang Guang sneered, but instead of retracting the black light, he accelerated his magic and another beam of black light shot out from the gourd. The two beams of black light almost simultaneously pierced through the brilliant light emitted by the treasure pearl and landed on the female Qi-refining cultivator's soul. In the next breath, the black light reversed its flow and returned to Wang Guang's gourd.

  He calmly plugged the gourd stopper back on and then turned around and walked towards his own camp.

  "You wicked Taoist, your words are worthless. Return my friend's soul to me!" The voice sounded again, and Wang Guang only felt a mighty aura rolling towards him, with pearls of light bursting forth from the air and striking him with boundless radiance.
