The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

Deep in the mountains outside Xiangyang City, a phantom of a raptor swiftly swept across the sky.

The phantom was the giant eagle and Lu Yao on its back.

The giant eagle flapped its wings and soared through the air according to Lu Yao's instructions.

After Lu Yao unleashed the fully-leveled Dugu Nine Swords, the giant eagle followed him wholeheartedly.

But every time Lu Yao saw the giant eagle happily drinking and eating meat, he wondered if the giant eagle was using him as a long-term meal ticket.

Now that Lu Yao has subdued the giant eagle and obtained the Dugu Nine Swords, the Bodhi Serpent is no longer of any use to him, and there is no point in keeping it in the Sword Tomb any longer.

They then rode the giant eagle and left the place.

"I remember that at this time, Hong Qigong and Ouyang Feng were fighting on Mount Hua. It was a good time to go and collect the Toad Stance and the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms."

Lu Yao's eyes flickered slightly, his gaze fixed on the unique skills of Northern Beggar Hong Qigong and Western Poison Ouyang Feng.

With the inner strength of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra and the Yi Jin Duan Gu Chapter of the Nine Yin Manual, plus the Dugu Nine Swords, Lu Yao could easily defeat Hong Qigong and Ouyang Feng when they were not at their peak.

Having devised a plan, Lu Yao commanded the giant eagle to fly northwest towards Mount Hua.

The giant eagle flew very fast; Lu Yao had to use his true energy to avoid the wind pressure generated by its flight, which shows how swift it was.

What would normally be a ten-day journey, Lu Yao completed in just two days, arriving at Mount Hua.

The world of Condor Heroes is in the dead of winter, with a biting cold wind blowing.

Mount Hua is very high, and by the time Lu Yao reached the halfway point, snow was already falling and the mountain was blocked by heavy snow.

"Brother Eagle, the wind and snow are very heavy on this mountain. You should wait for me in the forest at the foot of the mountain."

Lu Yao glanced at the mountain path, which was now covered in thick snow, and turned to the giant eagle.

The heavy snow kept falling, piling up in heaps, and the eagle was already finding it very difficult to adapt.

"Wow!"

The giant eagle let out a soft cry, spread its wings, and soared into the sky.

After watching the giant eagle depart, Lu Yao looked at the white expanse before him and used his lightness skill to step onto the snow.

For a martial arts master like Lu Yao, the heavy snow could not stop him from going up the mountain. As long as he circulated his true qi and internal energy, the cold air outside his body would be blocked.

Mount Hua is very large, but there is only one summit.

When Lu Yao arrived at the summit of Mount Hua, two figures were engaged in a fierce battle.

It was Hong Qigong and Ouyang Feng.

Hong Qigong, dressed in shabby beggar's clothes, relentlessly attacked Ouyang Feng with his wooden stick.

Ouyang Feng was not to be outdone; his palms were covered with pale green true energy, which was powerful and sinister.

The snow on the summit of Mount Hua had been cleared away by the two men's duel, with the snow being shaken dozens of meters away.

"The Dog-Beating Stick Technique?"

Lu Yao stood at a distance watching Hong Qigong wield his wooden stick, and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

The Dog-Beating Stick Technique is a martial art of the Beggars' Sect, and only the leader of the Beggars' Sect can learn it, but Lu Yao doesn't think much of it.

"Old beggar, do you look down on me? Where are your Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms?"

Ouyang Feng activated his Toad Stance internal energy, using a palm strike to repel Hong Qigong, and then angrily questioned him.

"Haha, old poisoner, don't be in such a hurry, let's warm up first."

Hong Qigong chuckled and brandished his Dog-Beating Stick Technique once more.

But this time, Hong Qigong directly unleashed the strongest move of the Dog-Beating Stick Technique.

"Old poisoner, take my 'No Dogs Under Heaven' move first!"

Hong Qigong shouted loudly, and with his true energy, pale yellow staff shadows appeared in all directions, the range of his force was extremely wide.

Countless staffs surrounded Ouyang Feng, swung at him from all directions.

"Old beggar, your staff technique is quite interesting. Now, take my Divine Camel Snow Mountain Palm!"

Ouyang Feng laughed maniacally, his hands brimming with energy, his figure swaying unpredictably as he continuously struck out with his palms at the surrounding shadows of the staffs.

After a burst of energy swept across, Hong Qigong and Ouyang Feng faced each other, and the fight ended in a draw.

"Haha, looks like I'll have to use my best skills."

Hong Qigong laughed loudly, and the yellow true energy in his hands suddenly erupted.

"The Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms - The Dragon Regrets!"

Hong Qigong waved his palms, and as his true energy condensed, a faint yellow dragon shadow appeared.

"Hmph! You old beggar, you're finally getting serious now."

Ouyang Feng snorted coldly, leaped into the air, and landed on all fours.

"Quack quack!"

Ouyang Feng lay on the ground, his cheeks puffing out slightly as he practiced the Toad Stance, forming a ring of light green true energy around his body.

Ouyang Feng pushed off with both feet and lunged at Hong Qigong.

Hong Qigong remained expressionless and unleashed his Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms at the onrushing Ouyang Feng.

Standing at a distance, Lu Yao watched the two exchange blows and couldn't help but nod.

"As expected of the Five Greats' signature technique, it has some merit."

Lu Yao was very satisfied after witnessing the power displayed by the two martial arts techniques.

"In that case, I'll accept these two martial arts techniques!"

Lu Yao chuckled and stopped hiding himself, using his lightness skill to step towards the two people fighting.

The two fighters immediately noticed the uninvited guest the moment Lu Yao appeared.

"Who goes there! How dare you spy on me!"

Ouyang Feng's eyes turned cold as he glanced at Lu Yao.

Hong Qigong, however, stepped aside without changing his expression.

"It's you!"

Ouyang Feng frowned slightly, recognizing Lu Yao.

After all, Lu Yao was his godson's master. Although he was often not in a clear mind, he had not forgotten Lu Yao's appearance.

"Oh? Old Poison Master, you know this young hero?"

Hong Qigong chuckled and asked Ouyang Feng.

"Hehehe, Senior Ouyang actually remembers me."

Lu Yao chuckled. Ouyang Feng often went crazy, but he didn't expect to have such a deep impression of him.

"What are you doing here?"

Ouyang Feng glanced at Lu Yao a few times and said disdainfully.

Ouyang Feng actually looked down on Lu Yao from the beginning. If Yang Guo hadn't held Lu Yao in such high esteem, he would have slapped this annoying guy to death long ago.

"It's nothing really. I just saw the two seniors sparring here, and their martial arts skills were quite impressive. I just wanted to ask the two seniors for a secret manual."

Lu Yao sensed Ouyang Feng's malice and stopped arguing with him, giving a slight smile.

As soon as Lu Yao finished speaking, both Hong Qigong and Ouyang Feng's expressions changed.

Lu Yao's words were tantamount to desecrating someone's ancestral grave in the martial arts world, and would certainly attract hatred.

"Do you know what you're talking about?!"

Ouyang Feng's face was gloomy, and his hands were already covered with true energy.

Although Hong Qigong did not speak, his gaze toward Lu Yao was exceptionally cold.

"Perhaps I didn't express myself clearly enough, so let me say it again."

Hand over the martial arts manual, and I'll spare your lives!

Lu Yao had a smile on his face when he said the first sentence, but when he finished speaking, his gaze toward Ouyang Feng had become completely indifferent.

"Hahaha! You ignorant brat! Die!"

Ouyang Feng was completely enraged. He let out a maniacal laugh and instantly struck Lu Yao with a palm.

When Hong Qigong saw Ouyang Feng make his move, he gave a disdainful smile.

Although Hong Qigong usually appears kind and easy to get along with, to become one of the Five Greats, none of them hadn't climbed to their positions by stepping over countless corpses.
