Chapter 988 Gang Qi Vermilion Bird
Zhong Xiang was instantly displeased.
After all, he was a top-level master, comparable to someone like Uncle Fuu and the Old Taoist.
Such masters were extremely rare globally.
However, Yang Fei showed him no respect, cursing at him outright.
Zhong Xiang raised his head proudly.
"Yang Fei, I respect you as a master, but you really lack composure."
Yang Fei cursed loudly, "You kidnapped my woman and yet talk to me about elegance and composure? Shameless of you to say so."
Zhong Xiang smiled faintly, "Don't worry, Miss Xu Zhiqing is unharmed."
"I just wanted to use this method to have a good talk with you, I won't harm Miss Xu Zhiqing."
Yang Fei snorted, "Subjugation at the city gates, what's there to talk about? Release Xu Zhiqing first."
Zhong Xiang gestured slightly to Sister Lan behind him, "Go bring Miss Zhiqing over."
Sister Lan nodded, turned around, and left.
In no time, Xu Zhiqing hurriedly dashed down the mountain, holding her skirt.
She was overjoyed when she saw Yang Fei and called out.
"Fei, I knew you'd come."
Just as she reached about five meters from Yang Fei, Wu Yunfei grabbed her shoulder.
"Hold on."
Xu Zhiqing was startled, glanced at Yang Fei, her eyes reddened, but she held back her tears.
Yang Fei stepped forward, a hint of malice flashed across Wu Yunfei's honest face.
"Yang Fei, just a swipe of my Dark Force, and Xu Zhiqing is dead."
Yang Fei stopped abruptly, looking at Zhong Xiang.
"You, Zhong, what on earth do you want?"
Zhong Xiang said lightly, "I just told you, I wish for us to cooperate."
"Together, we can find Dragon Chant Temple, defy destiny, and break through Divine Punishment."
Yang Fei snorted, "Who knows where Dragon Chant Temple is? And how do we enter?"
Zhong Xiang said calmly, "There is some way, before the Martial God disappeared, he left clues for future generations."
Yang Fei couldn't help but be curious, "What clues?"
Zhong Xiang solemnly said two words, "Nine Extremes!"
Yang Fei shivered but pretended to be confused, "What Nine Extremes?"
Zhong Xiang said flatly, "I don't know what Nine Extremes is either."
"Some say Nine Extremes is a technique; achieving great accomplishment allows one to sense the location of Dragon Chant Temple."
"Some say Nine Extremes is an ancient artifact, which once obtained reveals the essence of an ancient civilization."
"Others say Nine Extremes is an Immortal Pill, once consumed allows for daylight ascension."
Yang Fei laughed heartily, "Really strange, such a thing exists in this world?"
Zhong Xiang's eyes were fixed on Yang Fei.
"I wasn't sure what Nine Extremes was, but now seeing you in action, I'm certain."
"Nine Extremes is a Martial Arts Heart Method, and it resides within you."
Yang Fei remained composed, "Oh, how so?"
Zhong Xiang looked at Yang Fei calmly, "Why pretend to be ignorant?"
"When you attacked Qin Feng just now, the ground emitted a powerful pulse, that ought to be the Elephant Pulse of Nine Extremes, right?"
At this, Yang Fei widened his eyes, "You actually recognize the Nine Extremes Heart Method?"
Zhong Xiang smiled bitterly, "After undergoing Divine Punishment, I researched countless volumes."
"Although Yinxue Tower's collection was scattered, ten years ago it was not difficult to find such information."
"By chance, I once saw a description of Elephant Extreme in a Dragon Elephant Prajna Heart Method manual."
"Elephant Extreme is the highest realm of Dragon Elephant Prajna Heart Method. According to the manual, it has an extremely mysterious heart method."
"This heart method can use one's own power to invoke an Earth Pulse, attacking enemies."
"I initially thought it was mere speculation from the book's author, but just now, I saw you perform it firsthand."
His eyes were sharp as an eagle.
"Tell me, how did you learn Elephant Extreme? Is Nine Extremes within you?"
Thoughts whirled like a pinwheel in Yang Fei's mind.
But he casually said, "I don't know what you're rambling about… Xue Mingtai, kill him!"
He suddenly raised his voice, shouting, startling everyone.
Wu Yunfei and Sister Lan both turned around, but behind them, there was no one.
Zhong Xiang didn't turn around, his expression unchanged, calmly looking at Yang Fei.
"Stop playing tricks, if you won't speak, I'll just have to incapacitate you and question you slowly."
Yang Fei awkwardly laughed.
"I tried so hard to fool someone, can't you just give me a little face?"
"Is my acting really that bad?"
Zhong Xiang's face darkened, his aura beginning to surge upwards.
Yang Fei was horrified to realize.
This guy's Martial Arts Realm was climbing from Yellow-Ranked Gangjin to Mysterious-Ranked, then Earth-grade, and finally to Heavenly Talent.
The overwhelming pressure descended like Mount Tai, pressing down on Yang Fei's head.
Yang Fei even found it hard to breathe.
In front of him, the once genteel King Wuxiang was no longer mild, now ferocious like a Demon King.
It seemed as if a stomp of his foot or a wave of his hand could turn the world upside down.
Even during the peak of the Demon Emperor and Sword Emperor, Yang Fei had not felt such terrifying aura.
The Turtle Extreme inside him shrieked harshly, warning Yang Fei to avoid King Wuxiang immediately.
Yang Fei activated the Four Extremes, steadfastly resisting Zhong Xiang's pressure, looking at him without fear.
"Indeed a Spiritual Martial Arts Master, but if you keep using Essence Qi to elevate your Martial Arts Realm, your Divine Punishment will start acting up."
Zhong Xiang snorted, "Rest assured, I can now control my own realm."
"Definitely won't exceed the limits of Spiritual Martial Arts, I'm curious if you can withstand one of my strikes."
While saying this, he formed his palms into a void, and a purple-gold Gang Qi vortex formed out of thin air.
That Gang Qi vortex spun a few turns and astonishingly transformed into a small Vermilion Bird, with both form and spirit, vividly lifelike.
Gang Qi Myriad Forms!
This turn of events caused Yang Fei to change expressions with fear.
He had experienced the might of Gang Qi Myriad Forms from the Demon Emperor.
The Gang Qi python the Demon Emperor summoned was incomplete, illusory and weak.
However, Xue Mingtai, An Zichen, and the Sword Emperor couldn't withstand it.
Yet, the Gang Qi Vermilion Bird Zhong Xiang manifested now was condensed and vividly lifelike.
This power was more than twice as strong as the Demon Emperor's Gang Qi python!
This bastard claimed to have broken through the Spirit Martial Realm ten years ago, it seems to be true.
In these ten years, though his Martial Arts Realm had dropped, he still stood at the Gang Jin Peak.
This Gang Qi Vermilion Bird, once unleashed, would be impossible for a small Danjin master like Yang Fei to resist.
Yang Fei shouted loudly, "Xue Mingtai, if you don't act now, I'm done for."
Zhong Xiang sneered, as the Vermilion Bird in his hands began to circle its wings, stirring the air into a vortex around it.
Yang Fei continued to shout loudly, "Zi Chen, my wife, if you don't act now, I'm dead meat."
Sister Lan and Wu Yunfei turned at once to look, but there was nothing but empty space behind them.
Zhong Xiang didn't turn around, his expression unchanged, looking at Yang Fei coldly.
"Stop fooling around, if you won't speak, I'll have to destroy you and ask slowly."
