I Become a Martial Arts God in the Chaotic Demon World

Chapter 312 - 312 Despair and Reluctance

Before confronting Shen Congyun, both parties had shown restraint, so no great chaos had arisen.

Although the scenario reminiscent of an earthquake was impressive, it only destroyed some streets, and the buildings along the street remained solid and undamaged.

But this time, Song Tianqing struck with fury, clearly aiming for a life-and-death battle with Han Zheng, and the destructive power was immense.

Therefore, Fang Jueming immediately evacuated the crowd to prevent unintended injuries, and nearly all the martial artists daring to remain nearby were of the Xuan Gang Realm.

At the same time, Fang Jueming also promptly notified Wan Zhongshan to come.

The Cang Mountain Sword Sect was different from other forces; whether it was Han Zheng or Song Tianqing who found trouble, the consequences were extremely severe.

On the long street, Song Tianqing's vengeful strike held tremendous power.

The Sword Dao Thirteen Character True Technique of the Cang Mountain Sword Sect was exceedingly complex, but each character brought one aspect of the Sword Dao's power to its peak.

Any disciple of the Cang Mountain Sword Sect who couldn't succeed with the Fighting Character Mnemonic might switch to practice the War Character Mnemonic or the Wind Character Mnemonic.

Anyway, among the Thirteen Character Mnemonics, there was always one you could cultivate.

And talented individuals could practice several Sword Dao paths simultaneously.

Previously, Song Tianqing cultivated the Killing Character Mnemonic and the Fighting Character Mnemonic, but now, he displayed the Destroying Character Mnemonic, which held even more extreme and powerful capabilities.

At that moment, Yan Xuankong suddenly commented in Han Zheng's mind, "The Cang Mountain Sword Sect still hasn't progressed.

I've long said that their Sword Dao Thirteen Character True Technique has no future.

Although there are many styles, and any disciple can find a path that suits them, few can truly reach the pinnacle.

The pursuit of the Sword Dao is purity; the more paths you cultivate, the harder it becomes to condense a core of power truly your own in the later stages.

Over the years, the Cang Mountain Sword Sect has produced many talents, but they're brilliant only in the early stages, and fade into mediocrity later on.

Their flawed cultivation technique is not without blame."

Even though Yan Xuankong often criticized this and that, his judgment was indeed very accurate.

Han Zheng also felt that the Cang Mountain Sword Sect's cultivation techniques had these drawbacks.

The Sword Dao Thirteen Character True Technique seemed powerful, but in fact, each Sword Dao was distinct from the others.

Now, the Destroying Character Mnemonic that Song Tianqing was executing was entirely different from the Sword Dao he had used before.

At this moment, Song Tianqing's sword was already upon him, the Power of Destruction surging mightily and overwhelmingly aggressive.

Han Zheng took a step forward, his qi and blood boiling over, unleashing the Dragon Elephant Sky Chart and the Black Sky Tathagata Demon Buddha at the same time.

The combined power of his physical body and Gang Qi directly shattered the domineering Destruction Sword Gang.

At the same time, Han Zheng's hand actually grasped Song Tianqing's long sword and violently pulled it in his own direction!

Song Tianqing had thought that after his trials in the Trial Land, he would be able to compete with the young elites of the Martial World.

Unexpectedly, Han Zheng's progress was terrifying.

That powerful force instantly caused Song Tianqing to lose his balance, and Han Zheng's right hand formed a seal, the Great Mighty Dragon Bodhisattva View smashing down from above!

In a critical moment, Song Tianqing reacted with extreme sharpness.

After all, he had honed his skills in the Trial Land, full of demons, and his combat experience was not weak.

The long sword in Song Tianqing's hand rippled with waves, and the formerly destructive swordsmanship became incredibly soft and gentle.

What Han Zheng had seemed to be holding was a long sword, but now it felt like he was holding a slippery eel, allowing it to slide out of his grasp.

Reclaiming his long sword, Song Tianqing suddenly swept it across his body, and an endless Sword Gang converged into a shield before him.

At the same time, Song Tianqing's long sword danced, forming a sword array.

The Sword Dao Thirteen Character True Technique, the Yu Character Mnemonic!

Accompanied by a deep roaring sound, the sword array before Song Tianqing was shattered, and even the Sword Qi shield was blasted into smithereens by that tremendous force.

Song Tianqing's figure was violently thrown back a dozen steps, but around him, a fierce Sword Gang erupted.

Swift as the wind, aggressive as fire, the Fire Character Mnemonic from the Sword Dao Thirteen Character True Technique was unleashed, sweeping a terrifying storm of Fiery Flame Sword Gang across the sky.

As the fiery Sword Gang apprached, Song Tianqing's swordplay shifted once again.

Boundless Blood Slaughter energy surged wildly, clinging to his long sword.

In an instant, along with the sky full of Fiery Flame Sword Gang Qi, that several dozen meters of Blood Slaughter fell from the sky with a slash!

Sword Dao Thirteen Character True Technique, Killing Character Mnemonic!

Song Tianqing now displayed a power that actually somewhat exceeded Han Zheng's imagination.

After being defeated by him last time, Song Tianqing must have truly devoted himself to rigorous cultivation.

Moreover, it wasn't the rigid sort of cultivation, but one that integrated actual combat, making his attacks immensely powerful when executed.

Such cultivation was enough to make an appearance at the Weapon Casting Conference—what a pity that he insisted on engaging in a life-or-death struggle with Han Zheng halfway through.

Han Zheng formed a Seal Technique with his hands, and his body's powerful Qi Blood Gang Qi surged turbulently, converging.

The formidable power transformed into an image of an Ancient Ape Demon Illusion behind Han Zheng, which let out a sky-rending roar as it unleashed a punch, instantly shattering the endless flames and Blood Slaughter!

Ape Demon Nine Transformations, Earth Splitting!

Song Tianqing sensed that that extreme and powerful force required him to burn all his power just to barely hold on under the might of the Earth Splitting Fist.

He almost shattered his teeth from clenching so hard—why, despite advancing so quickly, could he still not get the upper hand over Han Zheng!

Back in Black Stone County at Zhenwei Martial Arts Academy, Han Zheng, a disciple from commoner origins, had suppressed him, preventing him from learning the White Ape Extended Arm Fist.

After he joined the Cang Mountain Sword Sect, Han Zheng also entered the Demon Cleansing Bureau, where his strength skyrocketed, easily crushing him.

Now, having ultimately reached great success with the Sword Dao Thirteen Character True Technique, his combat power had become incredibly formidable, almost invincible among his peers within the Cang Mountain Sword Sect.

But in front of Han Zheng, he couldn't gain the slightest advantage; he was being completely overwhelmed the whole time!

Song Tianqing gritted his teeth, his hands concentrating Sword Qi, which he then directly stabbed into his own body.

Suddenly, his Qi blood burned violently—not resulting in boiling Gang Qi, but astonishing soaring Sword Qi!

Sword Dao Thirteen Character True Technique, Sealing Character Mnemonic!

This move was not a secret Sword Dao technique, but a method of channeling Sword Qi into one's own body, sealing a portion of the meridians to stimulate the physical body, causing the Qi blood to burn more fiercely and condense, transforming directly into extremely powerful Sword Qi within his body.

But the consequences were more than just consuming Qi blood.

If the Sealing Character Mnemonic was used for too long, it could even damage the meridians, affecting the martial artist's prospects for the rest of their life.

That's why disciples of the Cang Mountain Sword Sect rarely made use of this secret technique—Song Tianqing's actions were almost tantamount to fighting with his back to the wall.

Lin Qing, who was watching the battle from the side, slightly furrowed his brows; he did not expect Song Tianqing to have such a hot-headed reaction, going straight for a desperate gamble.

But Lin Qing neither intervened nor stopped it.

When he and Song Tianqing first entered the Cang Mountain Sword Sect, their relationship had been quite good, supporting each other against other disciples within the Sect.

But as both of their strengths grew, gradually defeating their peers, their relationship had also become somewhat delicate.

Thus, seeing Song Tianqing desperately fighting Han Zheng here, Lin Qing appeared anxious on the surface, but in his heart, he almost wished the two of them would fight to a mutual defeat.

"Nonsense! The Weapon Casting Conference hasn't even started yet; what sort of behavior is it to fight to the death here?"

An angry voice came from behind Lin Qing.

Lin Qing turned around; the person approaching was in his early fifties, tall and robust, with an imposing face that commanded respect without anger.

This man was the elder of their Cang Mountain Sword Sect, known as 'Three Extremes Sword' Gongyang Qu, who led their team to participate in the Weapon Casting Conference.

Behind him followed an older Xuan Gang Realm elder named Qian Songyuan and several young disciples in the Innate Realm who had not come to participate in the Weapon Casting Conference, simply there to watch the excitement.

"Elder Gongyang, Elder Qian."

Lin Qing hastily bowed in a salute, then said with a bitter smile, "Brother Song insisted on seeking out Han Zheng to avenge the extermination of his family; I couldn't stop him.

Before they clashed, I had urged him to show some restraint, but who would have known that he would lose his head in the fight, and now he has even begun to risk his own life."

Elder Gongyang Qu looked at Song Tianqing, who was still suppressed by Han Zheng even after utilizing the Sealing Character Mnemonic, his brows deeply furrowed.

"Elder Qian, I recall it was you who went to Black Stone County to bring back Song Tianqing and Lin Qing to our Sect.

At that time, you said that there were only these two promising seeds in Black Stone County, not even considering Shen Congyun's brother worth cultivating.

I seem to have heard that Han Zheng is also from Black Stone County—what's the story here?"
