Mythical Cultivation

Unfortunately, the secret realm could only withstand energy below the Foundation Establishment stage, so Huang Hao's enormous true essence could only be released through dozens of sword lights, each of which carried a sharp aura that made people feel palpitating. These sword lights were like lightning, swiftly attacking the four people opposite.

However, these dozens of sword lights also frightened the four people on the opposite side. They felt a huge threat and hurriedly raised their defensive magic tools and the flying swords in their hands to block the attack. However, Huang Hao's sword light was too powerful and easily broke through their defenses and hit their bodies.

The blow made the four men pale, and they spat out large mouthfuls of blood. They felt their internal organs severely damaged and were in excruciating pain. They were also horrified. They had not expected the opponent's secret technique to be so powerful, capable of increasing their strength so much. The power of this blow shocked them. They felt as if they were facing a master in the Foundation Establishment Stage, not a cultivator in the ninth level of Qi Refining.

This attack also startled some of the cultivators who had stopped to watch. They had originally only hoped to see if they could snag something, and had not expected to witness such a fierce battle. Seeing the four Zheng family cultivators' considerable strength, they had followed them here, hoping to gain some advantage. However, now that they saw how powerful Huang Hao was, they couldn't help but feel fear and awe.

But they hadn't expected to see such a terrifying scene. Huang Hao's sword strike filled the area dozens of feet wide with sword energy. The sharp sword intent made their hair stand on end. They put themselves in the situation, thinking that if this blow had struck them, they would have been killed. Fortunately, they didn't make a move, and they secretly felt relieved.

Wu Ming and his three companions also witnessed from afar dozens of sword beams slashing down from the sky. Each one carried a terrifying force, the surrounding air seemingly ripping apart with a piercing sound. However, they didn't realize these sword beams were connected to Huang Hao, as they didn't think Huang Hao was capable of such powerful swordsmanship. Although from a distance, these sword beams resembled the Qingyun Sword Art of their Qingyun Sect, judging by their power, they felt that only a senior disciple who had reached the ninth level of Qi Refining could wield such might.

Huang Hao was actually feeling a deep sense of pain and helplessness. He had originally thought he had mastered the Qingyun Sword Technique, but facing a formidable foe like Elder Ding, he found himself still powerless. Elder Ding was too powerful; even a simple trick from him made Huang Hao feel as if his entire body was about to explode. Only a full-strength attack had slightly alleviated the pain.

Seeing his previous attack blocked, Huang Hao continued his attack, sending dozens of sword beams slashing towards the four men. Seeing the sword beams slashing towards them again, the four men became a little worried, unsure if they could still block them. They sensed the sharp sword intent within the sword beams, knowing that this attack was even more powerful than before. But they could not retreat, only grit their teeth and persevere, once again deploying their respective defensive methods.

At this moment, Huang Hao attacked again. Dozens of sword beams flew from his body, slashing towards the four men with fierce momentum. Fortunately, the Zheng family, one of the four great families in Qingjiang County, was led by a gray-robed young man, a renowned Qi-refining cultivator. Seeing Huang Hao's attack, he knew that the four men had been lucky to have blocked it just now; if it came again, they would likely be unable to withstand it. He had no choice but to draw on his family's resources. He patted his storage bag and pulled out a talisman, a low-level second-level Vajra Talisman. He threw it forward, and a nearly ten-foot-high wall of light appeared before the four men. The other three breathed a sigh of relief when their brother helped them block the attack.

Dozens of sword beams slashed against the wall of light, causing it to crumble, but it still managed to block Huang Hao's sword beams. Seeing this, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief, their lives saved. Huang Hao, seeing this, was about to continue his attack, but suddenly felt a sharp pain throughout his body. Elder Ding warned him, "Don't attack anymore! Your body can't handle it!"

So that's how it was! It was because of Elder Ding's attack that a massive amount of Heaven and Earth Qi surged into Huang Hao's body like a tide. However, his body wasn't strong enough to withstand such a massive force. At this point, his body had reached its limit. If he attacked again, it would likely collapse.

Following Elder Ding's instructions, Huang Hao had no choice but to stop and concentrate all his energy on calming the restless Zhen Yuan within him. He could only spare a trace of his spiritual consciousness to control the defensive magic weapon to cover himself tightly.

The four men on the opposite side witnessed this scene, initially believing Huang Hao to be about to deliver a fatal blow, their hearts filled with fear and despair. However, to their surprise, Huang Hao merely made an attacking gesture, without reacting, even resorting to defensive magic tools. The four men immediately realized that Huang Hao's secret technique might have failed.

This was the perfect time for them to strike back! The four of them, energized, summoned their flying swords, ready to eliminate Huang Hao in one fell swoop, eliminating any future trouble. Four flying swords came hurtling towards them like lightning, their target pointed directly at Huang Hao.

However, when the four flying swords fiercely slashed at the small tower, the result was unexpected. Despite their incredible power, the flying swords only caused the small tower to shake slightly. However, the few people were not discouraged and directed the flying swords to continue attacking the small tower. They believed that Huang Hao's secret technique had expired and was now just a last-ditch effort. Of course, they would not miss this opportunity.

"Boom boom boom..." A continuous roar echoed as the four launched more than a dozen attacks. The small tower finally began to shake, seemingly on the verge of collapse. Huang Hao's life was in imminent danger, but just then, Wu Ming and the other four finally arrived at the battlefield. They immediately spotted the familiar small tower and Huang Hao, who was under siege.

At first, they thought it was a fierce battle between fellow disciples within the sect, but when they took in the scene, they realized it was Huang Hao who was under attack. The four immediately realized the situation was dire and rushed to his aid. The four members of the Zheng family had naturally noticed the arrival of Wu Ming and his companions. They had hoped they were just passing cultivators, but they were surprised when Wu Ming and his companions attacked without hesitation. Although the four Zheng family members had higher cultivation than Wu Ming and his companions, they were barely holding on after suffering two severe blows from Huang Hao.
