The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

As soon as Lu Yao spoke, the scene froze for two seconds, drawing the attention of almost everyone present.

"Who the hell are you? You want to die?!"

Before Ding Chunqiu could react, the disciple beside him suddenly turned fierce and glared cruelly at Lu Yao.

Because of the sect's reputation, the disciples of the Starry Constellation Sect are all ruthless and have extreme personalities.

If it weren't for Ding Chunqiu's forceful suppression, these Xingxiu Sect disciples would have been a malignant tumor wherever they went.

"Master, please allow me to deal with this ignorant brat."

The disciple beside Ding Chunqiu bowed deeply, his face full of obsequiousness.

"Yes, break all four limbs and throw him out."

Ding Chunqiu glanced at Lu Yao indifferently, his expression vicious.

"Ding Chunqiu! You dare to kill someone at Leigu Mountain!"

Su Xinghe's disciples' expressions changed upon seeing this; it was tantamount to slapping them in the face.

"Stay there."

Ding Chunqiu didn't even glance at them, but instead looked at Murong Fu.

After all, Lu Yao had spent some time with Murong Fu just now, and Ding Chunqiu wasn't blind.

However, he still allowed his disciples to deal with Lu Yao, showing that he was not afraid of Murong Fu.

Seeing that Murong Fu had no intention of making a move, Ding Chunqiu sneered.

The Xingxiu Sect disciple approached Lu Yao with a ferocious expression, his poisoned scimitar gleaming coldly.

Lu Yao raised an eyebrow slightly and glanced at the Xingxiu Sect disciple.

That one glance sent a chill down the spine of the Xingxiu Sect disciple.

"There's something good to watch."

Murong Fu held a folding fan, a smile playing on his lips.

He was well aware of Lu Yao's strength, and Ding Chunqiu's fate was unlikely to be good.

"Pretend to be a ghost!"

The Xingxiu Sect disciple who made the move suppressed his panic, his face hardened, and he instantly leaped up, slashing at Lu Yao with his curved blade.

Lu Yao's heart stirred, and a sword aura shot into the sky, severing the oncoming Xingxiu Sect disciple along with his curved sword.

"Pfft."

The Xingxiu Sect disciple, broken in two, fell to the ground with two muffled thuds.

"How did he make his move? Why did that Xingxiu Sect member suddenly die?!"

Some martial arts practitioners with lower skill levels did not see Lu Yao's sword aura; they only saw the Xingxiu Sect disciple leap into the air and attack Lu Yao, instantly being cut in two.

"Master!"

Those at the Innate Realm all wore solemn expressions, because even they hadn't been able to see the trajectory of that sword energy.

Doesn't this mean they too would find it difficult to withstand Lu Yao's attack?

"He's gotten even stronger!"

Murong Fu lowered his arms from his chest and looked at Lu Yao in shock.

“Amitabha! Your killing intent is far too strong.”

Upon seeing this, the high monk from Shaolin Temple clasped his hands together and said calmly.

"You old bald monk, if you dare to speak again, you'll get a sword from me, Lu."

Lu Yao squinted at the Shaolin Temple people and said coldly.

The Shaolin monk who had just spoken immediately closed his eyes.

"How dare you! Do you really think I'm dead?"

Ding Chunqiu snorted coldly. Although he thought Lu Yao was skilled, he was not afraid.

He was very confident in his "Dissolving Power Technique," believing that even the strongest internal energy would be neutralized by his divine skill.

"Ding Chunqiu, you've asked for your own death."

Lu Yao grinned, his expression cold and stern.

Ding Chunqiu's expression changed, and his killing intent surged.

"Young hero, since you are so arrogant, let me loosen your bones for you."

Ding Chunqiu's true energy suddenly erupted, and he instantly unleashed a poisonous palm strike towards Lu Yao.

Lu Yao remained expressionless as his true energy enveloped his body.

"Hehehe! Arrogant and ignorant brat, my True Qi Poison Palm is most adept at corroding True Qi shields. Go to the Yellow Springs!"

Ding Chunqiu sneered, then stepped forward and leaped into the air, unleashing several more palm strikes.

A barrage of green poisonous palms swept towards Lu Yao, their power astonishing.

"As expected of the Star Constellation Old Monster, his poison skills are truly formidable."

Feng Bo'e, standing beside Murong Fu, frowned, looking quite wary.

"Cousin, will Young Master Lu be alright?"

Wang Yuyan looked worried and asked Murong Fu nervously.

Murong Fu glanced at Wang Yuyan, who looked worried, and felt a mix of emotions.

He originally had no feelings for Wang Yuyan, but now that Wang Yuyan was interested in someone else, Murong Fu felt a little uneasy.

"Don't worry, Brother Lu is not that simple."

Murong Fu's expression shifted slightly, and he said calmly.

For some reason, Murong Fu even had the thought that it would be best if Lu Yao died here.

After all, once Lu Yao is dead, he can take the opportunity to bring Zhang Liang and Han Xin under his command and completely control these two capable ministers.

Unfortunately, Murong Fu knew very well that Ding Chunqiu was no match for Lu Yao, and he felt very sorry about it.

"Ha! I wonder where your confidence comes from."

Lu Yao sneered, his true energy condensing into countless sword energies that swirled around him.

"What kind of martial art is this?!"

Upon seeing the sky filled with sword energy, Ding Chunqiu's expression changed drastically, and he looked at Lu Yao in horror.

These sword energies carried a heavy pressure, and were clearly not easy to withstand.

Ding Chunqiu's face was gloomy, but his movements were not slow. He unleashed a surge of true energy and simultaneously released a lot of poison powder.

Ding Chunqiu then unleashed a white powder, which mixed with his true energy, and sent it hurtling towards Lu Yao's sword energy.

"Fizz!"

One of the martial arts practitioners watching the battle unfortunately came into contact with the poison powder that Ding Chunqiu had thrown. He screamed in agony and turned into a pool of blood.

This phenomenon startled the onlookers, who quickly took several steps back.

"Useless effort".

Lu Yao said calmly, and with a thought, countless sword energies shot towards Ding Chunqiu.

Ding Chunqiu immediately witnessed a scene that terrified him.

The once invincible poisonous true energy couldn't harm those sword energies at all; instead, they were easily pierced through and attacked him with undiminished power.

"Dissolving Power Technique!"

Ding Chunqiu realized he had bitten off more than he could chew, and quickly used his most powerful martial arts techniques.

The Dissolving Power Technique was created by Ding Chunqiu, imitating the Northern Darkness Divine Art of the Free and Unfettered Sect. It combines the Qi of Ten Thousand Poisons with true Qi to poison and neutralize the enemy's true Qi.

Unfortunately, he only learned the basics of the Northern Darkness Divine Art, but its power should not be underestimated.

Under Ding Chunqiu's urging, the pale green true energy quickly enveloped several sword energies, emitting a faint corrosive sound and releasing a cloud of poisonous mist.

"It's done!"

Ding Chunqiu's face lit up with joy, thinking that his "Dissolving Power Technique" had worked.

With his true energy erupting, Ding Chunqiu immediately tried to approach Lu Yao, intending to use the Dissolving Power Technique to completely eliminate him.

Unfortunately, Ding Chunqiu's joy lasted only two seconds before his true energy from the Dissolving Power Technique only managed to block the sword energy for a moment before being pierced through.

"How is that possible! Who exactly are you?!"

Ding Chunqiu looked at Lu Yao with despair and disbelief.

Countless sword energies swept past Ding Chunqiu, instantly severing his arms and legs, spraying blood everywhere.

"Aaaaah, I'm going to kill you, kill you!"

The pain in his body and the fear of losing his limbs drove Ding Chunqiu to madness, and he roared fiercely.

"Beiming Divine Art!"

Lu Yao glanced indifferently at Ding Chunqiu, who was struggling on the ground, and slightly raised his hand.

A blue aura bound Ding Chunqiu, and the aura within Ding Chunqiu's body was absorbed by Lu Yao.
