The morning light begins to rise, and golden color covers the sea of clouds.
Di Jiang held the wine jar and looked at Zhang Rongfang who came across from him again, silently.
"Yesterday, your brother was already here."
"Senior, I have no brothers. It was me yesterday too." Zhang Rongfang cupped his fists and smiled.
"..."
Di Jiang is still normal now, and this time in the morning is the most awake time of the day for him.
But even if he was mentally ill, looking at Zhang Rongfang, who looked calm across the way, as if nothing had happened, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Because of the injury yesterday... everyone has to rest for at least a month or two, right?
But now...?
"Your injury?" He looked at Zhang Rongfang's wound, and there was nothing there.
"That little injury is not a problem. In fact, I wanted to come here last night to ask for advice, but considering that I would disturb my senior's rest, I waited until today." Zhang Rongfang said with a sincere face.
He came here sincerely to beg for abuse.
The battle yesterday completely woke him up.
His martial arts was really bad. So this time, he went back to learn from the experience and began to study to improve his martial arts.
After a long period of hard practice, he has now polished and mastered all three of the internal methods of virtual image talismans.
However, most of the virtual image talismans are about strengthening the content of breaking through the limits, and only a small part explains the Taoist martial arts.
So...since Di Jiang said he has seen through Taoism and taught martial arts, isn't he the best person to practice it on?
Zhang Rongfang's heart was as clear as a mirror.
So early in the morning, he couldn't wait to come again.
Di Jiang looked at the intact injuries on Zhang Rongfang's body.
The injury between the chest and abdomen was caused by his forceful stabbing yesterday.
Looking at the other party's sincere and serious look, he suddenly understood something.
"You are not suitable to learn my love-burning sword technique."
"Burning Sword Technique?" This is the first time Zhang Rongfang has heard of this martial arts name.
"No, senior has misunderstood. Junior just wants to see what are the flaws in the martial arts taught by my Taoist priests." He suddenly realized that the other party had misunderstood, and replied.
"I won't teach you." Di Jiang shook his head. "I have to take care of Jun'er and I have no time to pay attention to you."
"Senior...have you ever met your wife?" Zhang Rongfang suddenly asked after thinking for a while.
"Of course I've seen it before."
"What is she like?"
"Looks a lot like me." Di Jiang replied confidently.
"..." Zhang Rongfang couldn't talk anymore.
"Others say that we are born to be husband and wife." Di Jiang said again.
"Indeed, senior and senior Jun'er have a very good relationship." Zhang Rongfang complimented.
"Yes, we can both die for each other without hesitation! I love her as much as she loves me..." Di Jiang's eyes were dim, and he was about to fall into confusion again.
"Senior, don't worry, maybe if you stay a little longer, Senior Jun'er will be here!" Seeing this, Zhang Rongfang quickly spoke up to help him stabilize his condition.
"Oh yes! You're right! I'll hold on for a little while longer...keep on for a little longer..." Di Jiang perked up and felt that it made sense.
"Anyway, we have nothing to do. Senior, why don't we have a fight. It's also a way to stretch our muscles." Zhang Rongfang said with a smile.
"You are too weak. If you were replaced by Jin Yuyan, it would be about the same." Di Jiang replied.
"..." The smile on Zhang Rongfang's face froze. As expected of a boss, he always compared himself to his great uncle.
"Actually, the junior didn't perform well yesterday, but it's different today." He insisted.
"Haha..." Di Jiang was too lazy to talk nonsense, stood up, picked up the wine jar with his kick, and threw it far away.
The wine jar filled with wine rested steadily on a white raised stone in the distance. In the open mouth, the wine kept rippling, but not a drop was spilled.
"You have to fight even if you can't beat me. You have quite the temper I had when I was young. Come on."
His right arm slid down, and a snow-white straight knife fell into his hand.
The knife was as clean as new, twenty centimeters long, double-edged, and the handle had fine cracks as if it had been assembled.
Other than that, there is nothing unusual about it, just like any other high-quality fixed knife out there.
From a distance, it looks like a dagger.
"By the way, let me remind you." Di Jiang said.
"My sword is called Qingyuan. It is a magic sword, and its sharpness far exceeds all other weapons. It ranks fifth on the list of magical weapons in the world."
"Magic knife? Why is it called Qingyuan? Senior, does this name have an origin?" Zhang Rongfang couldn't help but recall the injury he suffered from the weapon back then.
That name entrusted him with his wishes for his future.
"Well, because in this world, physical pain is nothing to be afraid of. Only love is the thing that can hurt people the most..."
Di Jiang answered softly and raised the magic knife.
"Let's get started. If I finish you off early, I still have to buy groceries for Jun'er."
Zhang Rongfang took a deep breath, and the blood lotus quickly spread out from behind, covering his whole body.
This time, he didn't put on a shirt, but only wore elastic leather shorts. At this time, his body grew rapidly and the shadow he cast almost enveloped the Dijiang River on the opposite side.
call!
A circle of slight airflow spread out around Zhang Rongfang.
His body of more than four meters looked down at the Dijiang River like a little giant.
"Senior, this is the blood lotus form of the three flowers of our Taoist sect! It is condensed with the first essence and blood flower of the immortal way, which can increase the strength of the whole body, please be careful!"
Zhang Rongfang's voice also became rich and thick at this time.
"It doesn't matter, you can't hurt me." Di Jiang replied.
Whoosh!
He displayed the magic knife in his hand and walked closer step by step.
"But, how come I haven't heard of this three-flower gathering of yours?"
"That's because the previous Taoist sect took the wrong path." Zhang Rongfang opened his arms.
"From now on, starting from me, everything will be on the right track."
"hehe..."
Di Jiang chuckled.
Take a step.
laugh!
He disappeared in an instant, made an arc from the right, appeared beside Zhang Rongfang, and cut through him with a knife.
Boom!
The ground suddenly exploded into large pieces of rubble.
Countless rocks exploded in a fan shape like bullets.
Zhang Rongfang didn't care at all, and directly hit the ground with his fists. The punch hit the ground with explosive force, like real explosives.
Poof!
Just when Zhang Rongfang was sensing and observing Dijiang's position.
A white straight knife suddenly penetrated the middle of his chest.
The tip of the knife pierced from behind and penetrated his entire body without any hindrance. Then it flew out and was caught by Di Jiang who flashed through the air.
"I said it before. You are too weak and there is no point in fighting me."
He landed lightly, turned around and walked towards the stone house.
Neither the gravel just now nor Zhang Rongfang's perception could find his location.
"Thank you...for teaching me." Zhang Rongfang half-knelt on the ground and covered the wound with his hand.
His increased physical strength was completely meaningless in front of the opponent's magic sword.
But it doesn't matter....he will come back....
because...
He seemed to have barely seen a bit of Dijiang's trajectory just now!
Although I still couldn't prevent it, I had made a lot of progress compared to the last time when I couldn't sense anything.
Inside the stone house.
Di Jiang gently wiped the Love Demon Knife clean, oiled it, and then sheathed it.
He didn't feel anything about the confrontation just now.
That kind of battle was just like when he faced those so-called masters many years ago.
Those guys who have trained themselves to be neither humans nor ghosts are just killed in front of him.
Even worshiping gods is just a little troublesome.
If you master the movement trajectory of the spiritual core, you can also kill quickly and instantly.
He picked up the cloth bag by the wall and prepared to go down the mountain to buy some food.
Suddenly his steps stopped.
"wrong?"
Di Jiang frowned slightly.
"The feeling just now... was a little wrong!"
When he seriously injured the man yesterday, he only used 20% of his strength.
The Grand Master himself is not in the final state at all times.
But what is different from other great masters is that the extreme realm will also bring other special states to people.
They met against time and named this state liberation.
Liberation is divided into temporary liberation and complete liberation.
This state was originally famous for the type of demons in the extreme realm.
Demons are the ones who do whatever they want, and they also have the worst reputation outside.
The Liberated State is completely famous for their several massacres and frequent use.
Therefore, this powerful state is also called by outsiders: the method of disintegration of demons.
At this time, Dijiang recalled the feeling of yesterday and compared it with today.
"Compared to yesterday, this guy's meat feels harder...?"
He became slightly confused.
"Maybe it's an illusion...forget it, let's go buy groceries."
He took back his thoughts and didn't bother to think more.

Ten days later again....
Linghua Mountain Peak.
Zhang Rongfang stood on the top of the mountain again and looked at the familiar stone house.
At this time, in his field of vision, the martial arts column on the attribute bar was clearly displayed.
‘Virtual Image Talisman - The Fifth Realm of Inner Law’
The balanced strengthening of the body has reached the 14th level.
In fact, martial arts does not do much to strengthen the body.
It is more about coordinating the efforts of all aspects and reducing internal friction and confrontation, which is equivalent to increasing the speed of force development in disguise, etc.
In addition, it can also deepen the comprehensive understanding of martial arts moves and so on.
At least at this moment, Zhang Rongfang felt that after tempering the five internal methods, he now stood at the pinnacle of the internal methods, and was faintly different from his previous self.
Especially for Taoist martial arts and talismans.
He could vaguely feel that the seven talismans he had learned seemed to contain an overall momentum.
But this momentum is not complete.
It's probably because he didn't learn all the talismans.
"Senior, junior is here again." He said loudly to the stone house.
"..." Di Jiang walked out of the stone house again and looked at the wound on his chest.
No scars.
His sword is made of special materials, the same type as the materials used to make statues of gods.
It is also a magic sword, used to curb the line of worshiping gods.
Even if you have a god-worshiping physique, your self-healing ability will be greatly weakened in front of the Love Knife.
But this guy...
Di Jiang frowned unconsciously.
"The gap between you and me is too big, and it will be useless no matter how many times we try again."
"Senior, you will know if it works or not after you try it." Zhang Rongfang smiled slightly.
The two of them stopped talking nonsense.
A magic knife slipped out of his hand, and his whole body expanded rapidly into a blood lotus state.
laugh!
In an instant, Dijiang disappeared again.
'coming!
’ Zhang Rongfang felt awe-struck and quickly entered a state of full awareness.
Everything around me seemed to slow down.
Flying leaves, floating dust, passing clouds...
Everything is invisible to his perception.
Except one.
Dijiang!
Where!? Where, where, where!
??
Zhang Rongfang's eyes widened and he quickly turned left and right.
Suddenly, a ray of light and shadow arced out from behind and reflected on the surface of his eyes for a moment.
This moment was extremely fast, maybe only one hundredth of a second.
But for Zhang Rongfang at this time, it was enough!
'found it!
’
Behind you!
Without any hesitation.
Zhang Rongfang turned around and punched!
Whoosh!
The two passed each other in an instant.
call!
!
The ground in front of Zhang Rongfang was blown by the wind of the fist, the hay tilted and fell, and the dust and gravel on the ground were blown away, leaving a shallow mark.
At the same time, a bloodstain slowly emerged from his right arm.
That is....
The edge of the love knife!
"I... blocked it!
"Zhang Rongfang was sweating profusely, but his expression was indescribable joy!
Behind him, Di Jiang looked slightly confused.
He raised the knife and looked at a drop of blood slowly sliding down the blade, which was as clean as new.
"Yes...you...blocked..."
A mere internal law... blocked Di Jiang's sword...??
At that moment, he was forced to change his stance, retract the original thrust of the knife, and then block the punch that was thrown at him.
Although it was only for a moment.
But...enough is enough...
In fact, as early as the first meeting, he could see the traces of the other party's martial arts, which were at best above average.
No matter how strong he is, he will not look at such trash without the instructions of someone in the meeting.
But...this is only the third time...
The third time, the traces of his martial arts have reached the inner...
There is no worship of God.
Just relying on one's own talent, I can barely keep up with my normal state...
Such talent....!
Di Jiang's hand holding the handle of the knife loosened and tightened, then tightened and loosened again.
He felt that his hands were sweating.
Suddenly, he understood why the leader of the meeting had to explain to everyone that he was a stranger to this person, so that everyone could find ways to win over each other.
