Chapter 315: The Celestial Gate Battle that Ushers in a New Era!_2
This palm is called the Great Earth Collapse Palm. It's a pity that I haven't fully comprehended the Wood Spiritual Qi yet, otherwise, when this palm strikes, not only would you be affected, but the entire Jiangnan Water Village would also be under my control.
Lin Beichen sighed leisurely.
Qin Wenwu's methods are indeed exquisite, but the development of the times moves forward relentlessly.
No matter how refined the old ways are, when faced with epoch-making new methods born from technological explosions, the old ways become worthless.
Qin Wenwu seems like a giant stuck between the old and new eras, too immersed in his past achievements. Despite having accumulated much from the past and thus having acquired some power of the new era before others, he still hasn't realized the true terror of the new era.
No matter how powerful Qin Wenwu is, without understanding the truth of the Five Elements Technique, he will gradually become useless.
The mutual generation and restraint of the Five Elements... New era? I see, no wonder you broke through the Celestial Gate at a young age. The secret of the new era lies here!
Qin Wenwu stared coldly at Lin Beichen, his face more excited, but the killing intent in his eyes grew stronger and stronger.
If you hadn't pointed it out to me, I might not understand it even after ten years. For the favor of your guidance, I'll send you to death today.
Qin Wenwu said, and his killing intent burst forth from within.
He raised his hands in the void, and his clothes instantly shattered.
On his body, there were no less than a hundred runes gathered.
Various runes flickered in succession, gradually turning Qin Wenwu's figure into ice crystals.
Qin Wenwu stood in the void, looking down coldly at Lin Beichen, lost in thought.
Lin Beichen, do you know why I chose to battle you in Jiangnan Water Village?
The mist enveloping Jiangnan Water Village gradually thickened, seemingly tainted by killing intent, as all the fog within a kilometer radius became enveloped with a heavy sense of death.
Standing above the water village, Qin Wenwu seemed to transform into an ice crystal deity.
Good technique.
Lin Beichen laughed heartily.
A cyan light flashed in his hand, illuminating half of the sky.
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi condensed from the Withered and Flourishing Qi pressed down.
Despite the Ice Qi gathering in the thousand-meter sky, it could not stop Lin Beichen's attack.
The thousand-mile ice cracked and melted instantly under Lin Beichen's steps.
Lin Beichen's fingers still gathered points of Spiritual Light.
The Spiritual Light surged, gradually extending to Lin Beichen's arm, but never unleashing.
Lin Beichen, you are too arrogant.
Seeing Lin Beichen rush forward and stand within the thousand-meter ice, Qin Wenwu's face showed a cold smile.
He grasped the void, and the pervasive fog gradually formed into a vortex, within which countless streams of water gathered and ascended, evolving into an ice dragon.
The ice dragon hovered ten meters above the ground and smashed down loudly.
Such paltry tricks; what arrogance is there to speak of?
Lin Beichen said casually, flicking a strand of Spiritual Light from his fingertips.
The ice dragon, condensing the power of dozens of tons of water, shattered to pieces upon collision with the Spiritual Light.
Qin Wenwu, haven't you realized yet? What you're controlling isn't real ice, but merely frozen water! Relying on such tricks, even if I stand here for three days and nights, you would not harm me a bit.
A trace of impatience flashed in Lin Beichen's eyes.
He pushed his arms out, and a burst of Spiritual Qi erupted, attacking all around, instantly splitting the thousand-meter ice.
Qin Wenwu still stood in the void, unharmed, but his face had become extremely grave.
The power of the Five Elements, what exactly is it?
He understood the theory of the Five Elements, but this theory, rather than being a cultivation method, seemed more like philosophy.
This theory is actually more formidable than the myriad secret techniques he learned over a thousand years?
Why?
A surge of anger rose in his heart.
He had cultivated for a thousand years, expending immense effort, yet he was outdone by a young, inexperienced student.
New era?
What new era? They are just fortuitous lucky ones.
Yet, even if he refused to believe, even if he was unwilling, the scene of Lin Beichen casually waving his sleeve and cutting off his countless ultimate skills kept appearing.
The power of the new era? Don't make me laugh, I'll show you what true Celestial Gate power is!
Qin Wenwu clenched his fists and an unusual rune appeared in the void.
The rune was stained with his blood.
The power of water adhered to the rune, transforming into an ice crystal giant sword.
I've said it's useless against me.
Lin Beichen said casually, not even using his hand, just a point of his finger, and the ice crystal giant sword turned to dust and dissipated.
Lin Beichen, it's not over yet.
Qin Wenwu roared.
Countless runes exploded from his body, like tentacles, covering a space of a thousand meters.
Meanwhile, the smoke and ice that had been shattered and collapsed began to slowly reshape.
The Withered and Flourishing Qi in Lin Beichen's hand seemed to be somewhat sluggish.
Lin Beichen, my Ice Qi is the Death Qi nurtured from the extremely cold land over decades; can you withstand it?
Qin Wenwu laughed maniacally, with madness in his eyes.
Runes projected into the sky, covering a kilometer radius, embodying all his techniques accumulated over a thousand years.
Is this what a battle in the Celestial Gate realm looks like?
The battle between Lin Beichen and Qin Wenwu dazzled and bewildered the spectators.
These two were obviously human, yet their techniques were beyond imagination.
Whether it was Qin Wenwu's Power of Frost or the cyan Spiritual Light in Lin Beichen's hand, both exceeded imagination, becoming more tangible than imagined.
Qin Wenwu truly deserves to be the number one expert in the Death Gate Realm. The techniques mastered by a thousand-year cultivator are indeed beyond our grasp! If I were Lin Beichen, I would lose with just one move!
The Yin Yang Dao Grandmaster said with a complex expression.
The crowd nodded silently.
Even the Yin Yang Dao Grandmaster said so; how could they question it?
The cultivation levels of the onlookers varied, but regardless of their realm, releasing inner strength outward was their limit, far from altering the environment like the power of Heaven and Earth.
The Power of Frost demonstrated by Qin Wenwu could be as fine as a strand of hair or as vast as encompassing heaven and earth.
While a distance of a kilometer might seem merely a kilometer, walking a kilometer and controlling a kilometer with inner strength release are two vastly different concepts.
Even in martial arts and movies, the visual effects rarely surpass the concept of a kilometer.
Many imagined feats like killing someone from a thousand miles away are actually not more than this distance.
What is killing from a thousand miles away? Killing from afar without being near the target, then fleeing without leaving traces, that's killing from a thousand miles away.
Before today's battle, who knew Qin Wenwu could freeze a space of a thousand meters with a wave of his hand?
And that's just what Qin Wenwu showcased; what kind of power lies within the divine techniques he hasn't demonstrated?
The crowd felt a chill in their spines.
The young ones were even more complex.
So this is the Celestial Gate realm, and the means of immortals; humans can really reach such heights.
Lin Beichen's strength is also formidable. The cyan light in his hand, I wonder what divine technique it is, to be able to contend with Qin Wenwu.
On a boat in the rear, a ferocious tiger sat cross-legged, with an old man on its back.
The tiger beneath him was extremely odd, not only was its body two or three times larger than ordinary tigers, but it also had a pair of peculiar wings from fleshy tumors on its back.
And this tiger had more than one peculiarity.
A protrusion between its eyebrows resembled an eye, its pupils would sometimes enlarge, looking like snake eyes, and its claws emitted a faint gray-black light spot, seeming like venomous scorpion stings.
This tiger was a bizarre creature created through various hybrid techniques.
Boats around seemed to know the nature of this vessel, staying at least hundreds of meters away, not wanting to approach.
The old man appeared indifferent, all his attention focused on the battle ahead.
