Under One Person: The Great Celestial Venerable of All Worlds

Chapter 66 Thunder in the Sun, Rain in the Shadows, the Decisive Battle!

"So that's how it is..."

Lu Jin was startled: "Old Celestial Master, so according to you, this kid has the talent of Xuanxuanzi and my Three Ones Ancestor?"

"Yes, that's possible."

The reason it is "possible" is that Zhang Zhiwei can see that this is not entirely due to his personal efforts, but should also be supported by the "Qi Body Source Flow".

But even so.

This is enough to demonstrate his natural talent.

As for Zhang Chulan himself, he didn't think that much about it. After all, he didn't even know what the "Return to Emptiness Mantra" was, but he had some understanding of "Qi Transformation into the Three Pure Ones".

Qi transforms into the Three Pure Ones, which are divided into Yin, Yang, and Nothingness. Yin and Yang are easy to generate, but Nothingness is hard to obtain. For this final competition, he studied diligently for two days and two nights and finally grasped the key.

Compared to the "returning to emptiness" mentioned by the old Celestial Master, his method is much simpler, and of course, the level is far inferior. It is to combine Yin and Yang after the Qi is divided into Yin and Yang, and forcefully squeeze out that trace of "nothingness" that separates Yin and Yang.

This trace of "nothingness" is like the dividing line of the yin and yang fish in Tai Chi. It is not created, but already exists. It is much simpler to extract. When it is integrated into the "Golden Light Mantra", it can condense a layer of "nothingness boundary" on the body surface to resist external attacks.

"Um?"

Noticing the change in Zhang Chulan, Zhang Lingyu frowned. He didn't have his master's insight, so he couldn't tell what had happened, but he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

But regardless, the heavenly lightning had now solidified and was poised to strike, so he couldn't worry about anything else and immediately gave a reminder:

"Watch out!"

"bring it on!"

To be honest, this was the first time Zhang Chulan had used this move, and he hadn't tested it before. He wasn't sure if it could actually withstand the heavenly lightning.

Before he could think any further...

Whoosh!

A dazzling white light crashed down, engulfing his body. Zhang Lingyu, Tian Jinzhong, and the audience in the stands stared wide-eyed, awaiting the outcome.

"Um……"

"Although still immature, it's enough."

Soon, Zhang Zhiwei spoke slowly, and the lightning dissipated. At the center of the lightning, Zhang Chulan stood upright, completely unharmed.

"What?!"

Zhang Lingyu was incredulous, not understanding what had happened. Before he could react, Zhang Chulan raised his hand and pointed, sending a bolt of lightning into the sky...

"Master Lingyu, it's my turn!"

Rumbling--

After the accumulated lightning power was released, the thunderclouds in the sky lost control. Before they dissipated, Zhang Chulan took over and began to prepare his own heavenly lightning...

It's time to end!

Just when he thought the outcome was decided and was overjoyed, Zhang Lingyu on the other side raised his hand again, ignited another Five Thunder Talisman, and the thunder power rose into the sky, starting a contest with him!

"Damn, he's cheating again!"

Feeling the tearing force of the lightning in the air, Zhang Chulan's eyes widened, but then he realized that he seemed to have also been given a cheat code... and more than one...

Fine, let's have a go!

He immediately pushed his Qi Pill to its limit and used all his strength to unleash the Qi Body Source Flow, finally managing to regain some control that was about to slip away and maintain the balance.

For a time...

The two began a long tug-of-war.

After repeatedly activating his Qi Pill and unleashing the Qi Body Source Flow, Zhang Chulan was at his limit and was now making a desperate gamble.

But Zhang Lingyu wasn't in much better shape. He had just summoned a bolt of heavenly lightning and then used two more lightning talismans in succession. His internal energy was almost depleted, and he was barely managing to keep going.

As time went by, the two seemed to have a tacit understanding, both realizing that they could not continue like this, otherwise the situation might get out of control. So they unanimously activated their thunder magic and competed for the thunder power that they could control the most.

As if by some tacit agreement, in no time, the thunder power in the thundercloud was divided into two parts, one yin and one yang, clearly distinct. Even the thundercloud was divided into two, flashing with black and white, completely opposite thunder!

"..."

After the fight ended, the two looked at each other simultaneously, staring into each other's eyes, and could clearly feel the fighting spirit in each other's eyes.

The next move will be their last, and it will determine the outcome of this battle. Neither of them wants to lose, and both of their bodies tense up at the same time.

slam-la-

Rumbling--

next moment……

Dark raindrops fell from the sky, heading towards Zhang Chulan. Each drop was a concentrated form of Yin lightning. Once it touched him, it would gnaw at his body like a leech, leaving him powerless to retaliate.

Meanwhile, pure white lightning flashed simultaneously, locking onto Zhang Lingyu. The pure Yang lightning had been fully prepared. Even if it couldn't compare to the original Heavenly Lightning, it was still unstoppable and could decide the outcome of the battle.

"We won..."

However, although the two sides appeared evenly matched, it was clear to anyone with discerning eyes that Zhang Lingyu's Yin Lightning was completed a little earlier and was about to touch his opponent. No matter how strong the Yang Lightning was, it was impossible for him to strike first after being attacked later.

Zhang Lingyu smiled.

"Huh?!"

But at that moment, his body trembled, and he suddenly felt that the Qi within his body was out of control, and even the thunderclouds above his head were out of control. The Yin lightning that had already fallen dissipated just before it was about to make contact with his opponent...

He collapsed suddenly.

Upon seeing this, Tian Jinzhong's eyes widened: "Senior brother, what's wrong with this spirit jade? How could it be like this?"

The old master narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly: "Who knows... Could it be that he ate something bad this morning?"

As Fu Xuan had predicted, in order to ensure Zhang Chulan's victory, Zhang Zhiwei had deliberately put a drug in Zhang Chulan's breakfast this morning. It was a drug called "Jianjing San" (剪径散), which originated from the Han Dynasty and was also known as "Shenxian Wan" (神仙丸)...

Even immortals would perish if they ate this!

After taking this medicine, its effects will block the flow of Qi. However, as long as the dosage is controlled properly, it can be made to take effect at the crucial moment of the final battle, determining the outcome of the match!

"This is……"

Seeing his opponent suddenly collapse, Zhang Chulan assumed he was exhausted and felt lucky. He immediately dispersed the thunderclouds above his head and looked at the referee Taoist.

"Zhang Lingyu, can you continue?" the referee asked.

Zhang Lingyu, his limbs trembling, struggled to get up, but without the support of Qi, he was completely powerless. After several attempts, he collapsed again, and could only helplessly announce:

"I... admit defeat!"

These words caused a sensation, not only because the next Celestial Master had been chosen, but also because the competition was so exciting that no one spoke and everyone watched with bated breath.

Zhang Lingyu, who fell at the last step without realizing it, was filled with bitterness. He couldn't complete his plan and had let his master down.

"Master...I'm sorry..."

"To lose in such an absurd way..."

Regardless, the outcome was now decided, and Zhang Chulan raised his hand, enjoying the cheers that belonged to the victor.

At the same time, he also looked at the old master. He had become the final winner as promised, and thus he would be able to learn about his grandfather's affairs...

He breathed a sigh of relief...

He laughed.
