Emperor Qiankun

Chapter 483 You have no martial ethics, huh?!

Li Qingyuan was also surprised to see this scene.

He really didn't expect that Jiang Nan was practicing Confucianism and Taoism.

No wonder Jiang Nan once said that his path was somewhat special...

Now that I see it, I finally understand.

At this moment, Li Qingyuan recalled that in her previous life, she had also encountered a Confucian immortal.

Most of those people were old-fashioned and had a strong scholarly air. They often talked about "benevolence" and "righteousness," and advocated governing the country with Confucianism and studying the works of various schools of thought in order to achieve the Great Way.

They believe in sudden enlightenment, in which all things in the world can be understood.

But this path is too difficult, and few people will reach the end and become great masters of Confucianism and Taoism.

Most of them gave up halfway...

Even if they didn't want to get their hands dirty and wanted to coexist peacefully, the laws of survival in this world were forcing them to make a choice.

Therefore, even those powerful individuals who eventually became Confucian immortals were not without blood on their hands and tainted by karma.

The so-called Confucian ideas such as "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness

In fact, being able to achieve even one word signifies a person of exceptional character, and being able to achieve all three words is even rarer in this world;

However, very few people can manage more than five characters; it's just too difficult...

So later on, fewer and fewer people would take this path; they either gave it up decisively or were forced to.

With these thoughts in mind, Li Qingyuan looked at Jiang Nan with a hint of respect, whereas before it had been mere admiration.

Regardless of the circumstances, Jiang Nan's willingness to take this path and his current achievements demonstrate that he has successfully taken this first step.

The future is long, and no one knows what will happen.

But Li Qingyuan inexplicably felt that Jiang Nan's future achievements were limitless and unpredictable.

If he were an enemy, Li Qingyuan would even like to kill Jiang Nan right now, to prevent him from growing stronger...

Fortunately, the two got along well and had a decent relationship. Jiang Nan even joked once:

"I'm your creditor..."

------

Time flies by like a white horse, fleeting.

However, it was only the second half of the afternoon when the fierce competition of the second stage of the Heavenly Pride Tournament had already entered a white-hot phase.

Most of the cultivators succeeded in the challenge based on their own strength and remained on the stage in high spirits.

Or, after failing the challenge, they leave the stage looking dejected.

Of course, some defeated cultivators were unwilling to give up. They joined forces and launched a fierce attack on a Dragon Ascension Platform.

Some prodigies, with their exceptional strength and tenacious fighting spirit, successfully withstood this offensive.

Some prodigies, however, were no match for the combined strength of the crowd and ultimately perished injured, a truly lamentable end.

Li Qingyuan's Rising Dragon Platform was not spared either, encountering several reckless cultivators.

They were trying to take his place and rushed up aggressively.

Li Qingyuan's expression was cold and stern. He struck each of them with a sword, the sword light flashing like lightning, instantly sending them all flying off the stage.

However, to Li Qingyuan's surprise,

These people were utterly shameless. Not only did they use their superior cultivation level to intimidate him, but they also joined forces to launch a new offensive against him.

However, this is also permitted by the rules...

Li Qingyuan had no choice but to grit her teeth and fight back against this group of shameless scoundrels.

Li Qingyuan moved swiftly, displaying the Big Dipper Step, moving nimbly across the stage like a graceful swallow.

He kept brandishing his longsword.

Each sword beam was incredibly sharp, leaving a deep gash on a high-level Heavenly Gang cultivator, from which blood gushed out.

In a matter of moments, he wiped out the entire group of people as easily as autumn leaves were swept away by the wind.

......

------

Li Qingyuan thought she could finally have some peace and quiet and adjust her state of mind.

Unexpectedly, three cultivators at the ninth level of the Heavenly Gang Realm rushed onto the stage.

Without saying a word, they attacked Li Qingyuan directly.

That gesture clearly indicated they wanted to take advantage of him while he was exhausted.

"You have no sense of martial ethics, huh?!"

Li Qingyuan's expression was as cold as frost as he coldly shouted.

Immediately, with a thought, the green sword in his hand instantly sliced ​​through space and slashed out to the side.

The vast sword light, like a blazing sun, enveloped the three people behind him.

The sword energy was powerful and rippled outwards.

The dual sword intents revealed a chilling killing intent.

At this moment, Li Qingyuan's murderous intent was extremely strong!

His strength increased by another two points, so the force of his attacks also became greater.

In his opinion, 70% of his strength was more than enough to kill several cultivators at the ninth level of the Heavenly Gang Realm!

------

"Boom boom boom..."

A cracking sound rang out, like a thunderclap in one's ear.

Then, the three cultivators at the ninth level of the Heavenly Gang Realm showed panic and horror on their faces.

Clearly, none of them had expected that the young man in the blue robe would be so powerful and unparalleled!

The next moment, a wave of air swept in, rippling and scalding hot.

In a panic, before the three could even regain their footing, they were thrown away by an invisible wave of air.

Like a kite with a broken string, it fell to the foot of the Rising Dragon Platform.

Li Qingyuan remained expressionless, sheathing his sword and standing tall, looking down at the scene below, like an inviolable war god.

The cultivators below were naturally startled by the commotion and looked up, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

Upon seeing that it was actually a cultivator at the first level of the Heavenly Gang Realm who had defeated three cultivators at the ninth level of the Heavenly Gang Realm, everyone was in an uproar, and clamor arose everywhere.

"How is this possible? A first-level Heavenly Gang Realm cultivator can actually defeat three ninth-level Heavenly Gang Realm cultivators!"

"Just who is this kid? How could he possess such heaven-defying strength!"

"I can't believe there's such a genius in the world... This has truly broadened our horizons!"

"Could it be that he's hiding his true strength? Even so, his combat power is simply terrifying!"

"..."

The crowd chattered amongst themselves, their exclamations and discussions echoing throughout the venue.

Above, Guo Shi'an was also watching the battle with great interest.

I witnessed this scene at that moment.

His face showed surprise, a hint of admiration and curiosity flashing in his eyes, and he muttered to himself:

"This kid is interesting... Just where is your limit? I'm getting more and more curious."

The group of deacons of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion beside him all nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

Their gazes all turned to Li Qingyuan, looking at his blue robe fluttering in the wind, which exuded an indescribable elegance and unparalleled charm.

At this moment, the evaluation of Li Qingyuan by the deacons of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion reached its peak.

Phrases like "not arrogant or impatient," "neither humble nor defiant," and "destined for greatness" echoed in their secret whispers.

Some of the stewards even tried to extend an olive branch, intending to recruit Li Qingyuan...

Little did they know, their idea had already been put into practice by Guo Shi'an, only to be rejected...

However, it is undeniable that...

At this point, Li Qingyuan successfully caught the attention of some old guys, forcing them to take him seriously.
