Fantasy: After transmigrating, I effortlessly became a god.

Chapter 359 Hunting 6

Zheng Qian stood on a boulder ten meters away from Ding Yu, looking down at Ding Yu.

Ding Yu's eyes were icy cold, and two short swords gleaming with black light appeared in his hands. His cultivation technique, the *Shadow Flow Technique*, emphasized the unity of mind and body, using qi to control shadows, allowing him to conjure countless shadow clones in battle, making their true location elusive. Even more remarkably, the *Shadow Flow Technique* allowed Ding Yu to stealthily approach enemies like a ghost, delivering a fatal blow. With each advancement in his cultivation, Ding Yu could even infuse the power of shadow into his weapons, imbuing each attack with boundless chilling coldness and destructive force, chilling all who beheld him.

The two short swords in Ding Yu's hands were the renowned magical weapons of the Shadowless Sect, the Ghostly Twin Swords. One was called the Ghost Sword, and the other the Phantom Sword. Combined with his "Shadow Flow Technique," they could amplify his spiritual energy attacks by thirty percent. With the Ghostly Twin Swords in hand, Ding Yu dared to fight Li Zun, who was wearing the Nine Dragon Gauntlets.

In the Twin Absolute Domains, whether sparring with Zheng Qian or facing off against various races of prodigies, Li Zun did not wear the Nine Dragon Gauntlets, thus unleashing his strongest combat power.

Each of these monstrous beings employs a variety of methods, making them impossible to guard against.

As the wind rose, Ding Yu moved: "The shadows shift and turn, formless and shapeless."

The dim light served as Ding Yu's best camouflage, and he seemed to vanish into thin air, disappearing without a trace.

"Its form is visible, its appearance is audible, and it's full of loopholes." Zheng Qian didn't even need to consciously sense Ding Yu's whereabouts to know his location.

A person cannot be without shadow under light unless he completely merges into the void or completely filters out sunlight and becomes nothingness.

Ding Yu couldn't do either of those two things. Although the light was dim, Zheng Qian still saw very faint shadows on the ground. It wasn't that Ding Yu couldn't hide, but rather that they were in an open area, and Ding Yu couldn't use his advantage to conceal his shadow in the darkness, becoming a true shadowless warrior.

Swish, swish... The ghostly twin swords, like sharp blades cutting through the darkness, instantly unleashed boundless killing intent and suddenly appeared behind Zheng Qian's head.

Silent and deadly.

Zheng Qian took three steps to the left, thus escaping Ding Yu's attack range. Zheng Qian's movement speed was far faster than Ding Yu's.

Whoosh...whoosh...The sharp sword energy emitted by the ghostly twin swords flowed out, cutting two bottomless black holes in the ground, emitting black mist.

Ding Yu took a deep breath. He had just used all his strength to attack, but he didn't expect Zheng Qian to be able to anticipate his attack and easily dodge it.

Zheng Qian was even stronger than he had imagined.

The ghostly twin swords were planted in the ground. Ding Yu struck them with a palm, driving them deep into the earth. His eyes were filled with madness: "Zheng Qian, I'll show you what the 'Shadow Flow' really means."

The spiritual energy made Ding Yu's clothes flutter, and countless streams of spiritual energy entered the ground from his palms and flowed into the Ghostly Twin Swords.

The two ghostly swords underground emitted a black light, which then linked together to form a thirty-meter-long sword array, enveloping the two of them.

"Earth pulses, shadows shift!" Ding Yu roared, and the spiritual energy poured into the earth became even more violent.

Boom... Boom... A violent tremor came from beneath the earth, and sharp sword energies burst forth from the ground, mercilessly impacting Zheng Qian.

"Fully flawed, utterly meaningless." Zheng Qian raised his foot, and a sword aura shot into the sky, emitting a sharp whistling sound. With each step he took, he dodged the fierce sword auras.

The sword energy grew denser and denser, but Zheng Qian always managed to dodge it half a second in advance, as if he had practiced it countless times and it had become muscle memory. No matter how Ding Yu attacked, he couldn't even touch the hem of Zheng Qian's clothes.

"This kid from the Shadowless Sect is very smart, but his vision is limited. He was defeated by Zheng Qian because of his limited understanding," commented Dongfang the Gambler. He added that Ding Yu's strategy and fighting style were correct, but his limited understanding restricted his growth.

"Zheng Qian cultivates the 'Spatial Vibration' technique and has already reached the second level of spatial waves. Ding Yu's use of such a violently vibrating attack is truly foolish." Wu Chengming's evaluation of Ding Yu was even lower. The fact that none of the forty-three disciples of the Shadowless Sect were knocked unconscious shows that Zheng Qian has an extremely keen sense of space, yet he chose to launch an attack by generating a strong vibration from the ground. What else could it be but foolishness?

"The Shadowless Sect has only been established for a short time, and its foundation is not deep enough. If the Shadowless Sect were a major power like the Southern Extreme Sect or the Eastern Family, Ding Yu would be a promising talent if he were nurtured." Dongfang the Gambler took a swig of wine and still spoke a fair word for Ding Yu.

Ding Yu was right; it was simply because Zheng Qian was too strong. If Zheng Qian's spatial perception hadn't been so acute, his Earth Pulse Shadow Flow could have actually caused him some damage.

Yun Youzi didn't say a word. Wu Chengming and Dongfang Duba kept commenting on Ding Yu, which was actually saying that Zheng Qian was no good. He was able to completely avoid Ding Yu's attacks only because of "Space Shock".

I've been searching for a disciple for three hundred years. What kind of monsters haven't I seen? If Zheng Qian weren't special, would he have become my disciple?

Yun Youzi was secretly pleased. He was waiting for Zheng Qian to launch a brilliant counterattack and defeat Ding Yu in one move. This result would be better than him saying a thousand words, and it would be even more satisfying to slap Wu Chengming and Dongfang the Gambling King in the face.

The Ghostly Twin Swords Formation posed no threat to Zheng Qian, forcing Ding Yu to withdraw the swords and look at Zheng Qian with utmost seriousness.

Zheng Qian extended his index finger and said with a smile, "Young Master Ding, I will retaliate with this move."

"I will go all out with this move." Ding Yu merged the two ghostly swords together, turning them into a sword within a sword.

"Please!" Zheng Qian said confidently, letting Ding Yu make the first attack.

Ding Yu narrowed his eyes. The first two moves were his killing blows. The first was a single-target attack, and the second was an area-of-effect attack; neither of these different attacks had caused any real damage to Zheng Qian. This time, he would go all out to see just how strong Zheng Qian really was.

The mountain was filled with violent spiritual energy, and the ghostly twin swords that Ding Yu had combined emitted wisps of black smoke that drifted into the air.

Darkness, eeriness.

"Shadow Dance Thousand Kills!" Ding Yu roared, unleashing his strongest attack.

The wisps of black smoke in the air instantly transformed into hundreds of shadowy clones, swirling around Zheng Qian and searching for an opportunity to attack. Each clone seemed to carry Ding Yu's will, making it impossible to defend against.

"Zheng Qian, the Ghostly Twin Swords are the strongest magical artifacts of my Shadowless Formation. They can amplify the attacks of my clones, and in a single thought, they can decide life and death." Hundreds of Ding Yu spoke at the same time, making it impossible to distinguish which one was the real Ding Yu.

"If you can break my Shadow Dance Thousand Kills in one move, I, Ding Yu, will support the Demon Radiance Sect's withdrawal from the Fifty Kingdoms!" Ding Yu roared, and then hundreds of clones simultaneously slashed at Zheng Qian.

"kill."

Zheng Qian remained calm. As he comprehended the "Spatial Shock," he felt the terrifying nature of Yun Youzi's talent even more.

Whether you launch a sneak attack or a frontal assault, it will create ripples in space. And once you create ripples, they cannot escape the perception of someone who has cultivated the "Spatial Vibration" technique.

Therefore, cultivating the "Space Oscillation" technique is equivalent to being invincible from the start.

Zheng Qian extended his right leg into a horse stance. During this time, two of Ding Yu's clones struck him, but he did not resist at all, letting the clones strike him.

Since these two clones did not emit any spatial fluctuations, it means that they are just illusory clones and have no ability to cause real harm.

When the third clone struck down, Zheng Qian's spiritual energy surged, directly shattering Ding Yu's clone, and then he unleashed a punch.

"Surge Fist".

Zheng Qian's fist resonated with space, forming massive spatial waves that surged endlessly like raging seas. Each wave contained terrifying power capable of destroying mountains, shattering Ding Yu's clone and hurtling towards him.

*Pfft...* Ding Yu was hiding in his clone, but Zheng Qian saw through him and punched him in the abdomen, causing him to spit out blood in mid-air and fly towards the boulder behind him.

Zheng Qian changed the trajectory of his right fist, and the hidden force struck the boulder, instantly shattering it into small, equal-sized pebbles.

Ding Yu landed on the small pebbles, staring at Zheng Qian in disbelief.

If that punch had landed on him, he would have been blown to bits.

Is this Zheng Qian's power?

For over twenty years, I've been training relentlessly every day, yet I couldn't even withstand a single punch from him?

Ding Yu had never felt so desperate. He thought he was a prodigy, but he never expected that he couldn't even withstand a single punch from Zheng Qian.

Zheng Qian glanced at Ding Yu, then turned and walked towards the depths of Qianfeng Mountain, though his voice could be heard in the air.

"Young Master Ding, don't forget what you said: support the Demon Radiance Sect's withdrawal from the Fifty Kingdoms."
