Chapter 131: How Many Things Is This Kid Hiding?
“How is this possible!”
Seeing his Divine Fire Bathing the Sun being easily shattered, Jie Luo’s eyes immediately filled with disbelief. This was his strongest move, and it even had a palm qi boost. In fact, when the overwhelming killing intent appeared, he already had a bad premonition.
After all, how could a normal person have such a massive amount of killing intent? How many people must be killed for that?
The spectators were also exclaiming in shock. Such a terrifying killing sword move was truly unheard of, and it was absurdly strong. Even the Divine Fire Bathing the Sun couldn’t withstand it.
“It’s the Sacred Spirit Slaughter Sword Technique of the Tai Xuan Sect!” someone suddenly said.
“So that’s what it is!”
Gasps were heard, “This is a powerful sword technique nearly approaching the Heaven rank, but because it requires a lot of killing, it easily affects one’s will, leading to the path of slaughter.”
“That’s why not many people have practiced it.”
“But once mastered, its power is definitely at the top of Earth-ranked martial skills!”
“Jie Luo’s Divine Fire Bathing Sun Palm is indeed powerful and is also a high-level Earth-ranked skill, but it can’t compare to the Sacred Spirit Slaughter Sword Technique.”
After the explanation, everyone immediately understood.
Jie Luo didn’t have time to listen to the discussions around him.
He had long lost his initial casualness and confidence. His heart was almost in his throat, with every part of his body sending signals of danger.
This sword move! There was no way he could withstand it!
But this was the martial arts arena, there was nowhere to hide! Otherwise, he could have used his body technique to look for an opportunity!
“Damn it, what kind of sword technique is this? Heaven rank? How could it be so strong?” Jie Luo roared inwardly.
He couldn’t tolerate his painstakingly perfected palm technique being so easily shattered! But reality was always harsh and unyielding.
The Heaven-reaching Sword slashed down.
The martial arts arena shook!
In an instant, dust and smoke rose all around. As the dust settled, the scene within was revealed.
Jie Luo was still standing, but he was in a miserable state, covered in sword wounds, as if he had been ravaged by countless sword energies, bleeding profusely.
Beside him was a shocking sight.
A huge chasm, like a great fissure!
The Heaven-reaching Sword was still embedded in it, its terrifying killing intent chilling to the bone, even from a distance!
It was as if there was an endless sea of blood and corpses right before their eyes!
Many people were so frightened they stood up from their seats, sweating profusely.
Jie Luo spat a mouthful of blood. His figure staggered, and then his knees went weak, and he knelt down, facing Meng Changqing.
Jie Luo’s heart was filled with shock and anger, but he was helpless.
He knew that this sword move could have killed him. Meng Changqing had held back. The sword move had only brushed past him, but even so, he couldn’t completely withstand it and suffered serious injuries. The most crucial thing was that the killing intent was like a bone-chilling worm, constantly affecting his mind, making him irritable, disrupting his qi and blood, and making it difficult to stabilize his true essence. Hence, he couldn’t control his whole body.
Meng Changqing’s expression remained unchanged, indifferent and emotionless.
He moved slightly in his thoughts. The Heaven-reaching Sword shattered, turning into countless gray sword lights, returning to the sword scar on his fingertip.
This was not the strongest move of the sword technique. It could only be considered mid-level. But it was already beyond what ordinary high-level Earth-ranked martial skills could contend with. Moreover, when he used it, he also used the Linglong Daluo Tian, amplifying part of his true essence. It was even more beyond what Jie Luo could resist.
“Perhaps with just this move, I can rank in the top ten.”
Meng Changqing lowered his hand. His entire demeanor returned to a calm state. He now looked like an ordinary noble young master, handsome and harmless. He was completely different from the killing master he had just seemed to be.
“The winner, Tai Xuan Sect, Meng Changqing.” Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs N0velFire.ɴet
The judge of Wanxiang Pavilion snapped out of his daze and immediately announced.
“Young master is mighty!”
The Meng family members were the first to react, shouting excitedly. They even kept winking at the people around, as if saying, “Look at your judgment. Our young master is so strong, and you thought he would definitely lose? Didn’t your so-called twenty-seventh-ranked Jie Luo just lose in one move?!”
Those who had been discussing earlier felt a bit embarrassed. But they couldn’t be blamed. After all, Meng Changqing wasn’t as well-known as Jie Luo. They didn’t know him well.
On the high platform, Duanmu Yang’s face suddenly turned gloomy. He smashed the table beside him with his right hand, obvious anger in his eyes.
This was Jie Luo, almost a sure candidate for the top thirty in the martial arts competition. And now, he had fallen so early!
Instantly, he looked towards the direction of the Tai Xuan Sect, wanting to say, “You really hid deeply, having a disciple master the Sacred Spirit Slaughter Sword Technique!”
But upon looking, he found that even the peak masters of the Tai Xuan Sect, including Xi Yingqing, were also slightly surprised.
Clearly, they didn’t know either.
So it was a dark horse, an unexpected rise!
“Is Tai Xuan really favored by the heavens?”
Duanmu Yang and the Giant Spirit Sect master Qin Hong exchanged a look, both showing solemn expressions. Although only a few rounds had passed, it was not a good omen.
“Master, is that really the Sacred Spirit Slaughter Sword Technique?” Mo Xiaoyu snapped out of his daze, hurriedly pulling Mo Shukuang’s sleeve, urgently asking.
“Yes.” Mo Shukuang took a deep breath.
He knew Meng Changqing was practicing this sword technique, as it was taught by Yun Bujue, but he didn’t expect Meng Changqing to master it to such perfection in such a short time!
This was quite impressive! Just using the life forms on the fourth level of the punishment peak was enough?
But thinking of Meng Changqing’s comprehension, and the fact that he had already comprehended it… it seemed barely understandable.
Subconsciously, Mo Shukuang glanced at the other peak masters. They all nodded slightly.
“This kid, how many things is he hiding?”
Mo Shukuang couldn’t help but smile.
The other talented disciples also finally understood why the sect master had praised him so highly in the main hall.
The Sacred Spirit Slaughter Sword Technique was one of the top Earth-ranked martial skills of the sect. Apart from the main branch, it seemed there was nothing at the same level that could compete with it!
“Sacred Spirit Slaughter Sword Technique.”
Han Luoyu stood beside Xi Yingqing, squinting his eyes. His hands behind his back clenched slightly, then relaxed.
This sword technique was indeed powerful, but he was not weak either.
“I didn’t expect Junior Brother Meng to major in this sword technique.”
Lan Chan laughed, “That move just now should be the Extinguish Heaven and Earth, not the strongest move of the sword technique.
“I remember it being something else.”
“One Sword, No Life, Nothing Survives.” Mo Shukuang said slowly.
Although his voice was calm, it made people’s spines tingle, with a feeling of life being taken away and sinking into a realm of death.
