Chapter 98: The Dragon Elephant King Pavilion!
Qin Zheng's confidence is directed at Shun Feng Er.
He firmly believed that the Wind Ear could detect the secret of Longxiang's transformation, and it was the three Linglong beasts. It must also know who the traitor is within the Longxiang clan.
Song Qianshan had been searching for Shunfeng'er's hiding place many years ago and had already found some clues, thinking that it was possible to find him. At that time, not only could he get rid of Shunfeng'er, but also know who the traitor was, which can be said to be a double gain. Therefore, he was not in a hurry and did not think of ways to find him out by himself. Since the traitor hid so deeply, it's not that you can easily lure him out just by thinking of ways.
Liefeng, Cangyun, and Sicong didn't know, but they felt that Qin Zheng was a bit profound and unpredictable.
Three people regarding the continuation of their original roles in dealing with the Longxiang tribe, naturally have no meaning, especially for Qin Zheng who chose to close the door and make a gesture of not intervening, happily welcoming.
And so, everything returned to normal for the Longxiang tribe.
Qin Zheng then entered the best training ground of the Long Xiang tribe, also a sacred place that only the tribal leader could enter... the Dragon Elephant King Pavilion.
Cangyun opposed this move, thinking that although Qin Zheng had not replaced the patriarch, he was still not a member of the Longxiang tribe after all. In the end, the elder Lie Feng and Si Kong agreed, and Cangyun could only stare helplessly.
Longxiang Wang Ge is the holy land of the Longxiang people.
The former dragon elephant tribe was the royal family of the demon clan, with extraordinary strength, dominating the Shén Wǔ continent, who dared to resist. In its strongest period, it had the qualifications to challenge the position of the Demon Emperor's clan.
During this period, there were also people from the Longxiang tribe who broke through the shackles of human gods and entered the divine realm.
Until the split.
The part that split from the Longxiang mountain range declined to this point, but in the demon clan, the Longxiang tribe was known as the White Dragon Elephant Tribe and still had a strong force.
This Longxiang Wangge is a portrait of the strongest ancestors of various direct lines left by some powerful people during the split, including three paintings of three peerless strongmen who broke through the shackles of human gods and rushed into the divine realm, which contains infinite mysteries. According to the Longxiang tribe's theory, those who can comprehend it are all capable of stimulating the dragon blood in their body, thereby nourishing the Longxiang martial vein.
The Dragon Elephant King's Pavilion is located on the steep cliff of the high mountain east of the Martial Arts Arena, and it is also the first place where the morning sunlight shines in the Dragon Elephant Clan.
This pavilion has a part suspended in mid-air, with two elephant king trees moved from the demon tribe's territory on both sides. Now, it is already unknown how many years have passed, and its tree crown is like two hundred-meter-high dragon elephants, protecting the Dragon Elephant King Pavilion. Every time the dragon elephant clan people miss their hometown, they will look at these two elephant king trees.
As soon as Qin Zheng stepped into the Dragon Elephant King's Pavilion, a bleak and ancient aura rushed towards him.
There is a solemn atmosphere here.
The paintings hanging on the wall seem to be constantly interpreting the past scenes, cutting through the long river of years and passing them down to the present.
Qin's policy also forbids collecting taxes on the mind and spirit, with a respectful heart, enter into it.
The Longwang Pavilion is made of pure wood, emitting a faint fragrance. The light inside is slightly dim, with eighteen scrolls hanging around, each one evoking a sense of crossing the river of time and entering that glorious moment. Each of the eighteen scrolls has a faint aura surrounding it, exuding an ancient atmosphere that is most beneficial for cultivation.
Qin Zheng's policy was implemented at the time, triggering the nine-colored divine lotus martial pulse.
Huang Long Ba Fa's Mai Long Pian has already been embodied as a dragon-like pulse, freely absorbing the essence of heaven and earth.
Blood vessels transformed into transparent colors, which is also a great help to the speed of cultivation.
He glanced at the eighteen scrolls, and was immediately drawn to one of them. He walked straight up to it and stood in front of it. As soon as he did, Qin Zheng felt a sudden urge to be pulled into it, crossing the vast expanse of time. But just as this feeling arose, his blood began to boil, instantly snapping him back to reality.
Looking at the painting again, I no longer have that inexplicable feeling.
But still brings a strong sense of being there in person, as if one can gain some insight from it, and this feeling comes from the heavenly defying divine martial skill "Dragon Elephant Swallows Heaven Technique".
In the painting, a man stands alone amidst thousands of horses and soldiers, surrounded by endless slaughter, corpses, severed limbs, and scattered armor. People in the midst of killing look at him with shocked expressions, yet he stands calmly with his hands behind his back, his hair fluttering, his clothes billowing in the wind, and a faint aura emanating from his body. Without intentionally releasing any energy, he exudes an irresistible presence, as if he were the sky, the earth, and the invincible existence that perfectly merges with heaven and earth. Above his head, a swirling vortex takes shape, through which one can seemingly see the realm of the gods.
This is a moment of enlightenment on the battlefield, breaking free from human and divine shackles, under the attention of countless people, to ascend to the realm of the gods.
Qin Zheng looked at this person with his hands behind his back, revealing an aura of confidence.
It was an expression that reached the pinnacle of momentum, breaking through the category of pure momentum. Every glance and smile, every move, was naturally perfect, with a momentum like heavenly power.
Quietly watching, Qin Zheng had an epiphany.
The same painting, when seen by others, may reveal the method of cultivation, the subtlety of martial arts transformation, or a kind of martial skill. This person is at the moment of breaking through the shackles of humanity and entering the realm of gods, so it is the ultimate display of his entire martial arts cultivation. It can be said that anyone who has not broken through the shackles of humanity can gain some insight from it.
Qin Zheng realized was momentum.
He initially practiced the Dou Hu Shi, which is itself an application of Qi, so he had some epiphany this time, but this time it's not about using Dou Hu Shi to comprehend, but rather Long Xiang Tun Tian Shu.
Although Qin Zheng didn't know whether the Dragon Elephant Swallowing Heaven Technique was created by the people in the painting, he could be certain that the people in the painting had already completely mastered the Dragon Elephant Swallowing Heaven Technique, and thus also had a display of this martial skill.
Then, Qin Zheng sat down in front of the painting with a plop.
Run the Dragon Elephant Swallows Heaven Technique with all one's might, and use this method to cultivate.
This martial art is the top-level, heaven-defying, god-slaying technique of the Longxiang tribe since ancient times. It has a great effect on fighting, cultivation, and comprehension of mysteries, similar to the Douhu stance.
Qin Zheng also took advantage of the best opportunity to practice in the Longxiang Wangge, and entered a closed state.
But he still had a mind to pay attention to the situation around him.
Who knows if the traitor within the Longxiang tribe will emerge to launch a sneak attack, he dare not be careless and even more unwilling to put himself in such a dangerous situation.
Cultivation knows no time or day.
Qin Zheng was completely absorbed in it, with a single-minded desire to make a breakthrough.
The threshold of the Wu Realm is high, and even the strongest forces are no exception. For this Heavenly Wu Realm to appear, and there's more than one, he must at least break through to the Yi Wu Realm to win in this perilous situation. The time given to him is only half a year, with the added hurdle of crossing the threshold from the Wu Realm to the Yi Wu Realm.
Two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
The Qin policy is still stuck at a high level in the border area of Wu, and there has been no breakthrough yet.
"The breakthrough of the Wu Realm is indeed not so easy."
"Previously, breakthroughs were more or less assisted by external forces, and it would take only two or three months to reach the high level of martial arts. Now, relying solely on self-cultivation, progress is so slow."
"The Longxiang Wangge is already an excellent place for cultivation, and yet it's still like this. No wonder people say that the unique martial vein is in the realm of the Blazing Martial Boundary, where breaking through usually takes a year or two, unless one has some kind of encounter that can shorten the time needed to break through."
"Two months have passed and there are only four months left before Yuxiu Xiang's tribulation."
"If we don't break through again, then it's completely impossible to enter the realm of martial arts."
Qin Zheng felt the pressure surge.
If it takes three or four months to break through from the Grand Mastery of Wu Jing to the Great Achievement, then it will take at least half a year to enter the realm of Yi Wu.
He can't wait.
It is necessary to make a breakthrough as soon as possible.
But he is now just touching the edge of a breakthrough, and there is still some way to go before truly breaking through.
"It's too late."
Qin Zheng stood up, feeling somewhat annoyed in his heart.
Looking around, the Longwang Pavilion was still as it used to be.
Eighteen paintings hang quietly on the wall, telling the world that there were once eighteen people who shone with unparalleled brilliance.
He walked to the door, looked at the azure sky, breathed in fresh air, and his heart's annoyance gradually subsided. He bent down to look at the martial arts arena below the mountain.
The result was blinded by a ray of light.
Qin Zheng squinted his eyes to look, but found that it was on the steep cliff of a mountain peak opposite the martial arts arena, about a kilometer high above the ground, where there was a protruding rock, shining with light, as if it were incubating something, and finally breaking out of the stone.
Similar situations occurred when Qin Zheng arrived at the Longxiang Mountains, while searching for the Dragon Elephant Swallowing Heaven Technique marked on the treasure map, he also saw some, but they were all ordinary treasures.
Nor did he know what treasures would appear inside this mountain rock.
Qin Zheng just took a glance and then lowered his head to look towards the martial arts arena.
Only saw nearly a thousand people gathered inside the martial arts arena.
The Great Elder Fierce Wind, the Four Elders of the Azure Clouds, and even the young generation's Si Kong were all present. Among them, Si Kong was riding on a gigantic dragon elephant that was over 10 meters tall, and he seemed to be one with the dragon elephant. Surrounding him were more than 400 dragon elephants, each over 7 meters tall, and on the back of each dragon elephant stood an expert from the Dragon Elephant Clan.
These people formed three circles, with Si Kōng in the center.
Additionally, Da Zhang Lao Lie Feng and Si Zhang Lao Cang Yun stood on the east and west sides of the outer circle, their faces serious as they stared intently, as if afraid that any mistake would occur.
"Once more!" Shi Kong bellowed loudly, "Everyone listen to my command."
The crow and sparrow inside the martial arts arena are silent.
Only Sī Kōng's voice echoed in the sky.
"Keep your breath calm and your mind focused!"
"Man and spear become one, the martial pulse returns to one!"
As the void grew, Qin Zheng discovered that everyone's and Longxiang's martial veins appeared on their bodies at the same time, attracting the convergence of heaven and earth's vital energy around them, forming lines of energy that connected with people nearby, so a circle of people and Longxiang's martial veins were actually connected together, finally converging on the central void and the great Longxiang.
"Transcendence, collective ascension!"
With a loud roar, the heaven and earth essence within tens of thousands of meters around were sucked away in an instant, gathering around these people and the dragon elephant, and a huge dragon elephant gradually took shape.
Just as it had a bit of an embryo, Qin Zheng's eyes sparkled with excitement.
This is obviously evolved from the mysterious Longxiang Tianyun technique.
Boom!
A dragon and elephant with a thousand miles of height had just begun to take shape when they immediately collapsed.
"Damn it! Can't the collective cultivation method that our ancestors developed based on the Dragon Elephant Swallowing Heaven Technique really work?"
