Chapter 248 Success or Failure
On the lake, the blood-faced ghost walked towards Xu Jing step by step.

"A lowly person like you is worthy of being my knot?!"

Xu Jing looked at the blood-faced ghost in front of him angrily, waved his hand, and activated his water-controlling power.

The lake water under the Blood-Faced Ghost's feet instantly turned into sharp blades, piercing through the Blood-Faced Ghost's body and tearing it into pieces of flesh and blood!
However, the next second, a completely intact blood-faced ghost reappeared on the lake.

"die--"

Xu Jing roared and controlled a stream of black water to swallow it up.

But new blood-faced ghosts continue to appear.

"It's just an illusion."

Xu Jing tried hard to calm himself down.

But as the blood-faced ghost on the lake got closer and closer, Xu Jing saw Wen Ke's face from the other party's calm eyes.
He couldn't keep calm.

The hardest thing for people to see clearly is always themselves.

Xu Jing possesses the extraordinary ability to "examine his conscience", which allows others to see directly into their hearts.

At that time, Li Fei broke through the mental barrier with the help of "Questioning the Heart" and realized the heart of killing.

Earlier, Wen Ke also broke through the mental barrier with the help of "Ask the Heart".

But "examining one's conscience" can only be used on others, but not on oneself.

Physicians cannot heal themselves.

Xu Jing has always kept his eyes on Hao Yi and regarded him as his biggest concern.

He never thought that Wen Ke, who was ignored by him, would become a knot in his heart.

Almost subconsciously, he used his Taoist power to attack the blood-faced ghost.

boom! ! !
The azure force hit the Blood-Faced Ghost with extreme chillness, freezing the lake beneath his feet into ice, and then the ice shattered.

After one move, the blood-faced ghost stood there unharmed.

"how is this possible?"

Xu Jing used his water-controlling power again, this time targeting the blood in the blood-faced ghost's body.

But just like that day at the execution ground, his water control ability failed many times, and this time was no exception.

The blood-faced ghost was unharmed and continued to walk towards him.

"Fake!!"

Xu Jing used his black water magic towards the blood-faced ghost, and a large ball of black water wrapped around the blood-faced ghost.

After a while, the black water dissipated and the blood-faced ghost was still uninjured.

Xu Jing used his magical power of flying clouds again, and the green clouds turned into countless sharp blades, which wrapped up the blood-faced ghost and cut him.

When the clouds dissipated, the blood-faced ghost had no wounds on his body and continued to walk towards him.

"impossible!"

Xu Jing started to attack frantically.

Back then at the execution ground, Li Fei had taken on his water control ability many times without getting hurt, so he was actually a little concerned about this matter.

However, the combat capability displayed by Li Fei was still too weak, and his killing power was not even at the peak of the Dao Foundation Stage.

Xu Jing felt that the other party was merely using some special means to resist his magical powers. If he could free up his hands to target this person specifically, he would definitely be able to solve the problem easily.

So this matter did not become a knot in Xu Jing's heart.

It was not until he learned that the Blood-Faced Ghost had killed Wen Ke that the small "gap" left behind was infinitely magnified in his mind!
At this moment, the blood-faced ghost that turned into an inner demon became an immortal being that could not be killed no matter what, and could not even be hurt at all.

No matter how many killing moves Xu Jing used, he couldn't stop the blood-faced ghost from coming towards him.

When the blood-faced ghost walked up to the pavilion in the middle of the lake where Xu Jing was, the entire lake outside had completely dried up due to the effect of Xu Jing's magical powers.

The bottom of the lake was filled with black mud and dead fish and shrimp.

This scene was exactly the same as the scene when Xu Jing left the pavilion in the center of the lake.

Xu Jing stood there in a daze, and suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out.

puff--

In the real world, in the water dungeon, Xu Jing suddenly opened his eyes and spurted out a mouthful of blood.

The entire water prison was illuminated by three kinds of light: blue, black and cyan. A majestic force of Taoism filled the water prison, as if a terrifying giant beast was about to break the entire water prison!

As Xu Jing spat out a mouthful of blood, the three-color light that had originally blended together suddenly became chaotic, and the majestic Taoist energy also became disordered.

"not good!"

Outside the water prison, the faces of the two elders Canglin changed at the same time.

"what happened?"

Lu Wenzheng asked immediately.

"Master, the atmosphere in the water prison has suddenly become very chaotic. I'm afraid..."

The short old man said with a serious expression.

Upon hearing this, Lu Wenzhen's expression remained unchanged, showing a level of composure that one can remain calm even when faced with a mountain collapsing in front of him.

He turned to look at a middle-aged man beside him who was wearing a white robe and had a sword at his waist:
"Master Nalan, what do you think?"

The man whom Lu Wenzhen called the sect leader was named Nalan Zhi, and he was the sect leader of Qingshan Sword Sect, a major martial arts sect in the provincial capital.

Being able to become the leader of a major martial arts sect, Nalan Zhi was naturally a martial arts master. He was a powerful figure of almost the same era as Gu Xianfeng of the Tiefeng Sect of Datong Prefecture.

These two men, with their swords and knives, have left many legends in the underworld of Feng Province.

But now that Gu Xianfeng is dead, Nalan Zhi has the opportunity to become the vice president of the next new university!
Today Xu Jing's breakthrough is of great importance, so Lu Wenzhen has naturally made sufficient preparations. He not only arranged many masters to guard the periphery, but also invited the martial arts master Nalan Zhi to protect Xu Jing.

Nalan Zhi looked at the water prison in front of him, sensing the chaotic atmosphere inside, and said to Lu Wenzheng:

"At the moment, the situation is indeed not good, but Xu Jing used the Black Water Divine Ability to absorb a Blue Water Sky Cloud Beast. He has sufficient reserves, so he still has a chance."

"Ah."

Lu Wenzhen nodded.

Although his expression remained calm, the bulging veins on the back of his hands revealed his true feelings.

Nalan Zhi continued to sense the changes in the water prison, feeling somewhat complicated.

He hoped that Xu Jing could successfully break through so that a new university could be established in the provincial capital and he would have the opportunity to lead Qingshan Sword Sect to a higher level.

He even has the opportunity to move to a higher level with the help of the new university's resources!
But the dark side of his heart made him secretly hope to see Xu Jing fail. He was more than 20 years older than Xu Jing, and he had only mastered one magical power so far, and he was still far from mastering the second magical power.

As for practicing the third magical power, then condensing the realm of martial arts and becoming a grandmaster, I don’t know when I will have the opportunity.

Perhaps I can only look up at that realm for the rest of my life.

However, because Xu Jing had mastered the top-level magical power, the Black Water Magic, Lu Wenzhen took a fancy to him and spent more than ten years helping Xu Jing plan, giving Xu Jing the opportunity to devour Gu Xianfeng's magical power, and then break his mental knot, giving him the opportunity to impact the master level.

This is simply a step to the top!
How could Nalan Zhi not be envious and jealous?
With such complicated feelings, Nalan Zhi waited for the final result.

More than ten minutes later, the aura in the water prison became more and more chaotic. When even Nalan Zhi felt that Xu Jing had no chance of breaking through this time, the aura inside suddenly became stronger!
As if it had suddenly been sublimated, the chaotic aura in the water prison was all merged together, and then burst out with a power that frightened even Nalan Zhi, a martial arts master:

A ray of light spread out from the water dungeon and instantly enveloped the entire dungeon.

Everyone who was swept by this light felt a chill in their hearts, and Nalan Zhi was no exception.

The next second, everyone heard the sound of gurgling water, and a black stream of water appeared out of thin air under their feet.

Not only that, thick fog suddenly filled the surroundings, and everyone seemed to have come from the dungeon to a huge foggy swamp in an instant.

"The realm of martial arts?"

Nalan Zhi looked solemn, then smiled with some relief.

Yeah.

He waved his hand, and the fog around him immediately dissipated.

He turned and looked at Lu Wenzheng: "Congratulations, sir, Xu Jing succeeded."

Lu Wenzheng was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter:

"Hahahaha!"

Laughter echoed in this 'foggy swamp'.

After a while, the fog in front dissipated and a figure walked towards the crowd.

The rest of the people were fine, but Nalan Zhi instantly felt a huge pressure, as if the entire world was targeting him!

When you are in someone else's martial arts realm, even your supernatural powers will be affected and greatly suppressed.

Nalan Zhi felt this suppression at this moment, and it was difficult for him to use his Taoist power or magical powers.

"Is this the Grand Master?"

Nalan Zhi murmured, then bowed to the visitor:

"Congratulations, Grandmaster Xu."

Following his salute, the others present also saluted:

"Congratulations, Grandmaster Xu!"

"Ha ha ha ha."

Lu Wenzheng walked forward with a big laugh and said to Xu Jing:

"Mr. Xu really didn't disappoint us. From now on, Feng Province has a second Grand Master!"

Xu Jing, who broke through the barrier, looked at Lu Wenzhen expressionlessly, with no joy on his face.

He put away the martial arts realm he had just cultivated:
"Lord Lu, what happens next depends on you."

Lu Wenzheng was almost laughing until his eyes were almost invisible: "Don't worry, the position of the president of this new university will definitely be in Mr. Xu's pocket!"

"There is one more thing I need to ask of you, Lord Lu."

Xu Jing continued with no expression on his face.

"what's up?"

"I want that man called Bloody Ghost dead."

"no problem."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Master Lu."

"Hahaha, you're welcome, Mr. Xu. From now on, we are all in the same boat. Let's move forward hand in hand."

"I just broke through, and I still need to retreat for a while to consolidate my realm."

"Okay, Mr. Xu, please go ahead."

"."

After the two finished their conversation, Xu Jing left the dungeon directly.

After he left, Lu Wenzheng turned around and asked Nalan Zhi beside him:

"Master Nalan, is Mr. Xu indeed a Grandmaster?"

Nalan Zhi recalled the huge pressure from the entire world just now and nodded:

"What he displayed just now was indeed the realm of a Grandmaster. This is a genuine Grandmaster's method."

Lu Wenzheng finally felt relieved and a smile appeared on his face:
"That's good. Please wait for good news, Sect Master Nalan."

"Haha, okay, then I'll rely on Lord Lu."

Nalan Zhi saluted with a smile.

Xu Jing returned to his villa in the special car prepared for him by Lu Wenzhen.

As he entered the secret room used for retreat, he suddenly vomited blood and began to bleed from all his orifices!

In today's breakthrough, he succeeded and failed.

His success was that he indeed integrated the three magical powers together and condensed them into the realm of martial arts.

The reason for his failure was that he did not survive the Tribulation of Return to Light. He was defeated by the inner demon of the Blood-Faced Ghost!
But in the end, he relied on the enormous power and vitality he devoured from the Green Water Sky Cloud Beast to forcibly complete the fusion of the three magical powers.

However, due to the imperfection of the state of mind, the disadvantages left by this forced breakthrough are very serious:

Every time Xu Jing uses the realm of martial arts, it will cause a serious burden on himself, hurting the enemy by one thousand and himself by eight hundred!

Moreover, his martial arts realm could not be maintained for a long time and was not as stable as others.

It can be said that he did break through, but he can only be regarded as a pseudo-grandmaster.

"Blood-faced ghost!"

While bleeding, Xu Jing gritted his teeth and pronounced the name, with a cold murderous intent in his eyes.
