Jiang Li shook his head, "No matter what system you cultivate, reaching a certain realm naturally allows for longevity!"
"However, this person isn't immortal, nor did he achieve longevity through cultivation. He gained it by consuming Phoenix Blood."
Huang Rong's eyes narrowed, "Phoenix blood?"
Jiang Li nodded, "It's not a true phoenix, though."
"A true phoenix couldn't possibly be born in a mere mid-level martial world."
"This is a divine beast that resembles a phoenix. If you find one and kill it, then consume its essence blood, you'll gain the ability to live forever."
"This two-thousand-year-old monster was wreaking havoc in the world. The super martial arts master I mentioned earlier took action, nearly killing him and destroying his immortal body, forcing him to hide away in fear!"
Huang Rong and Yaoyue were both astonished.
That was incredible!
To defeat an old monster who had lived for two thousand years with just a few decades of cultivation!
This person's brilliance was probably even greater than the Sword Saint's!
He sped along with the two women, and a giant Buddha statue, as tall as a mountain, soon came into view.
"Huh... I didn't expect this unexpected gain?"
Jiang Li's mental power extended far, penetrating into the Lingyun Grotto. He had originally intended to find the Fire Qilin, but unexpectedly discovered that Nie Feng was also there.
"Brother Jiang Li, what unexpected gain?"
Jiang Li said, "Nie Feng is also here!"
"The day he almost killed Xiongba with the Unrivaled Yin-Yang Swords, it was actually because the most terrifying martial art in the world of Wind and Cloud was hidden within the Unrivaled Yin-Yang Swords, a move known as the eternally invincible... Love of a City-toppling Beauty!"
Compared to the Love of a City-toppling Beauty, even Sword Twenty-Three paled in comparison.
Both were manifestations of mental power, but their power differed vastly.
"How arrogant!"
"Eternal and invincible martial arts? That's quite the boast!"
"The Love of a City-toppling Beauty sounds so beautiful!"
"Could it really be more powerful than Sword Twenty-Three?"
Huang Rong and Yaoyue were both filled with disbelief.
Eternal and invincible!
"Is there really such a martial art?"
Jiang Li said, "Looking across the myriad worlds, Love of a City-toppling Beauty naturally isn't qualified to be called eternally invincible. But within the world of Wind and Cloud, it has that qualification!"
It really is a martial art even more powerful than Sword Twenty-Three!
The two women were moved again.
They knew this was a world of mid-level martial arts, where strong individuals were as numerous as carp crossing a river, and there were even old monsters who lived for over two thousand years.
To be eternally invincible in such a world, such a martial art was truly hard to imagine.
In fact, it's not entirely accurate to say Love of a City-toppling Beauty is eternally invincible.
Because in the world of Wind and Cloud, there's another equally awesome martial art – Mahayana Limitless! However, the two martial arts have never clashed, and both can break through the void. It's hard to say which one is the truly invincible martial art.
"The Love of a City-toppling Beauty, you find it beautiful, but in reality, it's an extremely cruel technique!"
"When the founder of this martial art first used it, he completely erased a city from the face of the earth, killing hundreds of thousands of people!"
"It was because of this that it was named Love of a City-toppling Beauty."
The two women gasped.
Forget about Golden Core experts, even Nascent Soul experts couldn't wipe out a city with a population of hundreds of thousands with a single strike.
The ultimate realm of martial arts was truly exaggerated.
After a few words, Jiang Li, therefore, led the two women to the foot of the Leshan Giant Buddha.
Following the direction of Nie Feng within his spiritual sense, Jiang Li led the two women into the Lingyun Grotto.
Inside the cave, Nie Feng had just finished his cultivation.
Because of the changes in the plot, Mingyue had died at Xiongba's hands. The Unrivaled Yin-Yang Swords were both in his possession!
"Xiongba, I will make you pay for this in blood!"
Killing intent surged from Nie Feng.
Even though he had found his family's Snow Drinking Saber and the Arrogant Cold Six Techniques here, and had also consumed the Blood Bodhi, causing his power to increase dramatically, he wasn't in a rush to seek revenge on Xiongba.
During their previous encounter, although he was fortunate enough to drive Xiongba back, he was well aware of the gap between them.
"Someone's here!"
Suddenly, Nie Feng's eyes narrowed. He reached out to grab the Snow Drinking Saber and the Unrivaled Yin-Yang Swords.
He turned his head and saw a man and two women strolling towards him as if they were taking a leisurely walk.
The perilous Lingyun Grotto felt like a stroll through a back garden for them.
The three of them – the man was exceptionally handsome, and the woman was a city-toppling beauty, causing even Nie Feng to be taken aback.
He had never seen anyone like them before.
"Let's go!"
Unsure whether these people were sent by Xiongba to kill him, or if it was just a chance encounter, Nie Feng wanted to avoid them after his initial shock.
However, he had only taken two steps when the man's voice rang out.
"Nie Feng, don't go! We came specifically to find you!"
Then, something terrifying happened.
As the voice echoed, Nie Feng was horrified to discover that his feet seemed to be beyond his control, and he could no longer take a third step!
"What kind of technique is this?"
Nie Feng was terrified. Even though he frantically circulated his inner energy and even his Demonic Bloodline was about to erupt, he couldn't move.
"Don't be alarmed, we're not here to kill you!"
"On the contrary, we're here to help you!"
Seeing Nie Feng's eyes turn red and his body erupting with waves of black qi, Jiang Li knew that this guy's Demonic Bloodline was about to explode and quickly explained.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Nie Feng, though still guarded, wasn't as agitated.
"Truly a Son of Destiny, blessed by the heavens!"
Jiang Li glanced at Nie Feng and found that his fortune was the highest he had ever seen.
"May I ask who you are, and what you want with me?"
After sensing the power that had immobilized him disappear, Nie Feng took a step back and asked.
"I am Jiang Li, and I'm here to make a deal with you!"
"Give me the Unrivaled Yin-Yang Swords you possess, and I will teach you a technique powerful enough to kill Xiongba!"
Jiang Li naturally didn't want to miss out on the Love of a City-toppling Beauty.
As for the notion that only a devoted couple could comprehend the mysteries of the Love of a City-toppling Beauty, it meant nothing to Jiang Li.
In his eyes, this "password" was merely a change in the heart, which he could easily fake.
Moreover, with his level of mental strength, he didn't even need to fake this "password" to comprehend the Love of a City-toppling Beauty.
"Alright!"
Nie Feng didn't hesitate for a moment, handing the Unrivaled Yin-Yang Swords to Jiang Li.
He didn't even consider whether Jiang Li was joking with him.
Because the terrifying methods Jiang Li had displayed made him understand the gap between them.
Forget the Unrivaled Yin-Yang Swords, even if it was the Snow Drinking Saber, he would have given it up without hesitation.
As for the method to kill Xiongba, he didn't have any thoughts about it.
It would be great if he got it, but it didn't matter if he didn't. Staying alive was the most important thing.
Jiang Li reached out and grabbed the Unrivaled Yin-Yang Swords, storing them away.
"Let's go, I'll take you to find a technique that can kill Xiongba!"
Jiang Li, of course, wouldn't teach Nie Feng any martial arts directly. Instead, he would let Nie Feng acquire the Mystic Martial Arts and the Ten Strong Martial Arts in advance.
His powerful mental strength had already discovered the location of Shi Wudi's martial arts within the Lingyun Grotto!
Nie Feng looked doubtful. It didn't seem like the other party was trying to deceive him; it seemed he really intended to teach him a technique that could defeat Xiongba.
"Thank you!"
Nie Feng expressed his gratitude.
Having fought Xiongba, he naturally understood how terrifying Xiongba was.
That guy had gained some fortuitous encounter somewhere, and his martial arts had become unfathomable.
Even with his current power several times greater, he wasn't confident he could kill Xiongba.
