Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 217
Jiang Yishan's eyes almost popped out his sockets when he saw Jiang Xiu step on air and fly like a God towards the Reddrop Peak. His thoughts were a complete mess right now. He couldn't believe what he was seeing.
The other members of the Jiang family were stupefied as well, shocked to the very extreme.
Jiang Xiu is… Jiang Luoxia?
The person who had wiped out the Jin family, taken over the Golden Brocade Group, crippled Jiang Hang, killed Jiang Ao and forced the Jiang family to the verge of collapse, Jiang Luoxia, was actually his grandson whom he had abandoned.
Moreover, he was actually renown in China as the 11th Ranked Demigod!
This was explosive news!
"This is…"
"What the…"
A young child raised by the mother on the curb by selling fruits, with his father locked in prison, had matured up to become an existence capable of bringing the Jiang family down to such a state.
Even Jiang Yi and Lin Yueling were stunned after seeing Jiang Xiu fly to the skies, let alone them. They only knew that Jiang Xiu had acknowledged a master and learned martial arts but never expected that he had reached such a stage akin to the Gods.
"Jiang Yi… O-Our son…"
Lin Yueling covered her mouth, tears flowing down from her eyes unceasingly.
"Little Xiu!"
Jiang Yi also called out emotionally, trembling all the while.
Both of them were thrilled.
Their son's prospects were out of their scope of imagination, so high that it was enough to shock the entire world.
Whoosh!
That figure soared to the skies like a Roc flying on the winds, passing through the precipice and landing on the Reddrop Peak, causing the entire Donglu Mountain to tremble.
At this moment, his long hair flew in the wind like a flame, awns of lightning flashing through his pitch-black eyes. His facial features became sharper, seemingly carved out of perfection using a demonic blade. His skin sparkled like sheep-fat white jade, giving him an intoxicating, demonic handsomeness. His stature seemed to be forged out of gold, having no blemish from head to toe. It was as if an ancient deity had descended.
His existence was like a paradox to this world!
"Jiang Luoxia has arrived!"
"He's here!"
The people at Donglu Mountain went crazy. The rumor that Jiang Luoxia got scared and fled the country was also squashed. The discussions had begun once more on the martial arts forum. Many people took snaps of the moment when Jiang Luoxia made his appearance and posted them on the forum.
"Oh my God!" Miao Xiaolin and Xiao Fangfang were stunned.
"He can fly? They aren't shooting a film, right?"
Cheng Lingsu clenched her fists nervously as her heart pumped blood quite rapidly, causing her breathing to become rushed. She wore an excited as well as a worried look on her face, "You really came!"
Her heart was conflicted up until this point. She hoped Jiang Xiu would appear but also hoped he wouldn't. In the end, he had made an appearance.
"Hmm? Why does this Jiang Luoxia look a bit familiar?" Song Ronghao commented. "Susu, don't you think this person looks similar to Jiang Xiu?"
Though Jiang Xiu was under Deification right now, the base for it was still Jiang Xiu. It was similar to how a person looked different from the typical appearance to that after adding special effects.
"Descend, the nine mythical arts, cleanse the heavens, a thousand years of karma, an artless heart yet romantic."
At this time, the old man leaning against the rock finally moved. He had silver hair which was different from the gray hair of old men, his hair was thick and even glowed. His appearance was the same as a youth's. Were it not for his age leaving a deep impression of an old man, it would've been difficult to connect him to an old man.
He had a well-built figure, wore white clothes and was barefoot.
This was Ji Wudao!
His voice seemed to come through from the horizons. Though his mouth didn't move, the voice dropped over everyone's heads like thunder from the skies. "Jiang Luoxia, you've finally come!"
"I thought you got scared and ran away!"
"Run?" Jiang Xiu retorted.
"You aren't qualified to make me do that!"
Saying so, he took a step forward, causing the rock under him to crack. The entire Reddrop Peak seemed as if it would collapse as that crack spread towards Ji Wudao's location.
Jiang Xiu was already flying over there.
"Bang!"
Ji Wudao remained in his position and stamped his foot, sending several crushed rocks to attack Jiang Xiu. "Jiang Luoxia, the 11th ranked Demigod. Show me your skills."
At the same time, he too flew up. A smoky cloud covered his surroundings and made him appear illusionary.
Jiang Xiu punched out in response to it. Along with a trembling sound, a strong wind flew over the entire place, causing the herbs on the peak to snap off from their roots and drift along with the wind. Just the energy wave from the punch was enough to crush the rocks flying towards him into powder.
The strong wind dissipated suddenly, resulting in the herbs and dust dancing in the air to fall to the ground.
"Not bad! Not bad!"
Ji Wudao laughed while flying towards Jiang Xiu. White smoke filled the air behind him, and his entire person seemed to made of nothing, appearing like an illusionary dream. He arrived before Jiang Xiu in an instant.
"A God!"
This was a sign of divinity. It was possible to change the body into a different substance as one wished. For example, turn one's hand into stone or one's body into smoke like how Ji Wudao had done.
"You could make out that I'm a God?" Ji Wudao was quite shocked, "Since you suspected that I might be a God, I really have to admire your courage for still daring to come over."
"Seeing that you have extraordinary talent, I can make an exception to spare your life."
"What do you think about becoming my disciple?"
Jiang Xiu's expression turned cold, "Useless trash. You think you're qualified to be my, Jiang Luoxia's, master?" An insignificant Low God was not even qualified to carry his master's shoes.
"Audacious!" The smile on Ji Wudao's face vanished, a cold expression replacing it instantly. "Since you don't know how to appreciate my kindness, I shall behead you to make an example to the people today!" Saying so, the white smoke the behind him condensed into wings of clouds. He flew over towards Jiang Xiu while joining his hands together to attack.
Rumble!
A vast power rushed out from his hands accompanied by a terrifying sound wave. The incorporeal power hidden in the void started moving, its strength unfathomable.
This single attack was sufficient to bring down the entire mountain peak!
"Destroy!"
Jiang Xiu could only use the spells and battle skills he had accumulated over the 3 millenniums to complement for the disparity in strength between them. His fingers swapped through several bizarre seals one after one.
A dazzling radiance appeared on his finger. His figure remained stationary yet seemed as if his body was being pulled by the glyph on his finger. A beam of light streaked across the sky suddenly. Describing it was hard. Only a ray of light remained in everyone's line of sight.
"A Reflection to Part Worlds!"
Just like how a blade slices paper into two halves, the energy rushing over towards him parted to two sides due to getting cut into two halves and passed by Jiang Xiu's sides.
A whistling sound echoed beside him.
"Hmmm?"
Ji Wudao revealed a perplexed expression then used his second move. He transformed into a massive fist and bombarded towards Jiang Xiu. Only the image of a fist, which spanned across the void, could be seen in the dark night. It appeared as if the air was turning denser, similar to how it is when a bullet is shot into the water.
He was indeed worthy of being called a monster who had lived for over 500 years. As soon as Jiang Xiu dispersed his first attack using an unusual method, he immediately condensed it into a fist. If Jiang Xiu used the same move to deal with the second attack, he would no doubt fall.
The power of Gods had an overwhelming advantage over the power of Demigods.
"Pretty good! You can solidify and transform divine force smoothly!" Jiang Xiu praised him inwardly. A newly advanced God found it challenging to transform divine force and thus required more considerable effort to draw the power of the void to attack. The smooth operation was of paramount importance as this power was too strong and had to transform again. Reversing the transformation was pretty tricky as well. It was due to this reason that many people blindly pursued powerful spells and neglected the importance of types and transformation of attacks.
However, Ji Wudao hadn't made such a mistake and achieved it without any guidance from anyone. His wisdom indeed excelled others.
Light flashed across Jiang Xiu's eyes as he saw the giant fist come over towards him. He flung the back of his hand towards it once, twice, thrice…. He did it faster and faster and finally pumped the waves with powerful energy, instantly filling them with vast amounts of power, creating a thousand layers of waves.
Boom! Boom!
The energy wave met the fist and broke under its force, but there existed the second layer once the first one was broken through and then the third and the fourth… After passing through layer upon layer, the fist's power got weakened step by step.
"A clever spell!"
Ji Wudao was planning to crush Jiang Xiu without even giving him a single chance to resist but was instead very shocked after watching Jiang Xiu counter with strange methods. He still played it down, making it seem as if he wasn't surprised. "You… Are these spells or martial arts?"
Energy couldn't transform into waves, but the energy from Jiang Xiu's palms had indeed turned into waves and formed layers upon layers, blocking his fist attack.
"Naïve!" Jiang Xiu sneered inwardly. These are called Immortal Arts. "If it weren't for you being at a higher realm than me, this one move could've killed you!"
