Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the blood-moon-like sword light fiercely collided with the Ice Crystal Phoenix’s claws. In an instant, the entire arena was engulfed in these two radiant lights.
A trendous surge of Qi Force suddenly swept forth, striking the crystal walls.
"Who won?"
The crowd’s eyes were glued to the front. Although the radiance was piercingly bright, their strength allowed them to withstand such intense light. Instead, they each stimulated their soul power, trying to discern the situation inside.
The battle was indeed too spectacular.
Gradually, the light dissipated, and two figures erged.
Ye Xuan and Gu Hanxiang appeared at their original opposing spots, descending to the ground.
Pfft!
Suddenly, a sword mark erged on Gu Hanxiang’s body, appearing at her chest. The next mont, the sword mark violently split open, as if triggering a chain reaction, unleashing a series of tearing sounds. Gu Hanxiang’s body disintegrated into a bloody mist.
Hiss!
Instantly, gasps of shock arose, one after another.
Most people were dumbfounded.
Gu Hanxiang had lost.
Being second on the Holy List, with her Ice Snow Domain and the Ice Crystal Phoenix physique, almost only Yuan Taiyi was thought capable of overpowering her. Yet now, Gu Hanxiang had been defeated by another—a rising star who had recently beco famous.
"Freak."
Ling Hanye shook his head, no longer knowing how to describe Ye Xuan. His rate of progress was alarming. He had been considering competing with Sikong Wuji for the top position of the Heavenly Martial Holy Land. But now, it seed he had no chance.
Even Sikong Wuji was probably no match for Ye Xuan now. The latter was already qualified to challenge the title of the top youth master of the continent.
"Terrifying, just when I thought defeating Marquis Long Jian was the biggest upset, I didn’t expect there to be a more unexpected battle."
"What background does Ye Xuan have, and how did he suddenly gain such terrifying strength? There wasn’t a single hint of this before, it’s truly unbelievable."
"Yes, but no matter what the past was, all I know is that he’s now only one step away from the seventh layer. He’s highly likely to compete with Yuan Taiyi for a spot at the pinnacle of the Martial God Tower."
"Things aren’t set yet, let’s see if Yuan Taiyi can defeat Sikong Wuji."
The crowd erupted in discussion, voices filled with shock and awe. They had thought they could predict the outco of the battle, but now it seed uncertain. If Gu Hanxiang could lose to Ye Xuan, why couldn’t Yuan Taiyi lose to Sikong Wuji?
Anything was possible, and Ye Xuan’s situation reminded them that every match held uncertainty.
"I never thought I would lose a match here."
Gu Hanxiang appeared in another crystal chamber, looking at Ye Xuan with a trace of bitterness in her eyes. However, this bitterness lasted only a mont. Her expression changed, regaining her fighting spirit. After all, reaching this level of talent marked her as a peerless genius. Gu Hanxiang’s ntality wasn’t that weak; now, she was sowhat looking forward to the clash between Ye Xuan and Yuan Taiyi.
A loss today could be won back another day.
With Ye Xuan and Gu Hanxiang’s battle over, next up was the clash between Sikong Wuji and Yuan Taiyi.
Without a doubt, this was a heavyweight match.
"Make your move; I’ll give you three."
Yuan Taiyi stood with his hands behind him, speaking indifferently.
"You’re giving three moves? I doubt you have the capability, but since you’re so confident, I’ll indulge you!"
Sikong Wuji laughed in fury, unsheathed his treasured blade, and an eerie vibrating sound suddenly spread.
"Intent turned to sound?"
Ye Xuan, whose hearing was several tis better than that of an ordinary person, could hear this faint sound from the other side of the crystal wall.
When murderous intent converts to sound, it occurs only when a person’s murderous intent reaches an utmost peak, a domain that equals entering a whole new realm in the Sword Dao.
Clang!
Sikong Wuji didn’t speak; he slowly pulled out his man-tall, bright blade and lifted it above his head, amassing a powerful montum akin to mountains, explosive as magma, and at the sa ti, he entered a frenzied state, his pupils turning deep silver, his terrifying aura releasing and retracting swiftly.
"Mountain-breaking Style!"
Suddenly, Sikong Wuji slashed fiercely, the bright sword light filling heaven and earth, extending hundreds of feet, like the weapon of a colossal spirit, directly striking at Yuan Taiyi.
"I’ll allow you three slashes."
Yuan Taiyi’s eyes narrowed, and he raised his left hand, catching the sharp edge of the bright sword light.
"Sea Splitting Style!"
With another slash, Sikong Wuji’s second slash followed imdiately; the Qi Force was relentless, appearing capable of splitting the entire ocean.
"Second slash!"
Yuan Taiyi’s right hand reached out, catching this flash of sword light.
Roar!
Sikong Wuji leaped up; at this mont, the sword montum on his body had condensed to its limit. Having used so kind of Secret Technique, his trendous sword montum, although capable of tearing heaven and splitting earth, was confined within ten ters around him, creating a terrifying sword Qi halo, similar to a domain but even more destructive.
"Sky Fla Style!"
Whoosh!
Sikong Wuji’s treasured blade in his hand blazed up, fierce flas igniting the sword Qi halo. Just as the sword Qi halo was about to burst spontaneously, Sikong Wuji swung his strongest slash.
This slash, scorching heavens and shattering seas.
This slash, severing souls and exterminating spirits.
This slash, tearing everything in front of it, relenting only in death.
"What a powerful slash."
Outside the crystal wall, many eliminated young experts were dumbfounded. Although the slash wasn’t directed at them, no, it wasn’t even in the sa dinsion, the pressure it brought was imnse. Those with weaker ntal fortitude even involuntarily stepped back several steps, trying to avoid the slash.
"At last, things are getting interesting."
Yuan Taiyi growled, an overwhelming aura blossoming around him and sweeping wildly. At his Dantian, a Taiji symbol appeared and rapidly spread, revolving behind him like an energy fountain, ceaselessly supplying Yuan Taiyi with power. His hands, holding the shattered sword light, moved ahead as he leaned forward, his fists joined, and he hurled them towards the oncoming fiery sword light.
Clang!
Like a massive blade slicing through indestructible extraterrestrial tal, the shrill soundwaves penetrated everywhere. The fourteen people outside the arena unavoidably suffered under the tyranny of the soundwaves, each stimulating their Protective True Essence.
The scene outside was already terrifying, let alone inside.
Yuan Taiyi turned entirely into a fiery man, the aftershock of the scorching sword light imnsly powerful; unless it completely shattered, even a small piece would continue to surge forward due to inertia. The shattered sword light and Yuan Taiyi’s body’s Protective True Essence rubbing together ignited fierce flas. The heat of these flas was startling, so much so that even Yuan Taiyi’s Protective True Essence could not entirely block such high temperatures, causing flas to burst forth on his skin, burning red-hot like a branding iron.
