"This time, the kid surnamed Ling is undoubtedly doomed to defeat!"
"Indeed! How dare he challenge the number one genius of the Central Plains, truly a death wish!"
"Right! Young Master Qin, you should properly teach this petty person a lesson!"
The cultivators from the Central Plains revealed smug smiles on their faces.
In their eyes, the outcome was already decided.
Ling Chen had already used the Holy Body Secret Technique and merely gained a slight upper hand.
How could he possibly contend with Young Master Qin who had also used the Holy Body Secret Technique?
Gazing at the enormous sky curtain that spanned the heavens and was bearing down, Ling Chen’s mouth quirked up, and a sharp glint burst forth from his eyes.
"It’s your turn to take the stage!"
Ling Chen said softly.
As his voice fell, the surrounding cultivators wore puzzled expressions.
What, does Ling Chen have reinforcements?
At that moment, where all gazes were converged on Ling Chen, a sword’s edge that seemed like an unrivaled divine sword burst forth from him.
The emperors of the top ten sects felt a familiar aura.
This kind of aura seemed to have appeared before Ling Chen’s arrival.
Even Qin Wufa looked on with a doubting face.
"Pretentious trickery!"
Qin Wufa stated coldly.
This strike was his most powerful attacking move!
He did not believe that Ling Chen had any technique that could withstand it!
"Through the Abyss Demon Sword!"
Ling Chen let out a low shout, unfolding an intermediate Emperor Spirit Technique.
A gigantic demon sword, thirty zhang in length, emerged.
With another low shout from Ling Chen, the colossal demon sword shot towards the blue sky curtain that descended from the heavens like lightning.
Both attacks were too fast.
They collided instantly.
In that instant of clash, a terrifyingly sharp aura suddenly burst from the giant demon sword.
A thunderous sound suddenly exploded.
Many cultivators with lower cultivation bases were directly shaken and retreated again and again.
This fierce aura was incredibly peculiar.
Upon contact with this aura, the six layers of Sword Intent in the blue sky curtain melted away like snow, as if it had met its nemesis!
The giant demon sword directly pierced through the blue sky curtain, instantly shattering it.
At this moment, everyone was dumbstruck.
Ling Chen’s sword strike had actually shattered the blue sky curtain with the ease of destroying dry rot!
Qin Wufa’s mightiest blow was defeated so thoroughly in front of Ling Chen?
Qin Wufa roared in anger, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He had given his all only to be crushed.
He simply couldn’t accept it!
The most ridiculous part was, he couldn’t even grasp what kind of technique Ling Chen had deployed!
He was the number one among the younger generation in the Central Plains!
Qin Wufa’s figure abruptly retreated, and as he did so, he condensed another blue sky curtain and pressured it towards the giant demon sword.
However, upon contact, the blue sky curtain instantly exploded, completely unable to stop the giant demon sword.
"How is this possible?!"
Qin Wufa went utterly mad.
No longer retreating, he held an ice-blue longsword and charged towards the giant demon sword.
Qin Wufa roared, as the longsword, emitting three feet of Sword Qi, slashed fiercely at the giant demon sword!
Qin Wufa only felt an unstoppable force coming through, and the longsword in his hand was immediately sent flying away.
His own right arm was numb with vibrations.
Just then, a strange sound was heard.
The intermediate Emperor Spiritual Weapon-grade ice-blue longsword astonishingly developed a crack.
Then came incessant "crack crack" sounds.
The ice-blue longsword shattered into over a dozen pieces!
The expressions of the crowd were akin to seeing a ghost, filled with horror.
An intermediate Emperor Spiritual Weapon, actually shattered?
What sort of attack was this, in the end?
And Young Master Qin was instantly dumbfounded on the spot.
Ling Chen’s mind stirred, and the sharp aura attached to the giant Demon Sword dissipated instantly! Thɪs chapter is updated by novel※fire.net
Yet, the giant Demon Sword continued to slash towards Young Master Qin.
Several dull thuds transmitted as the Protective Spiritual Power was utterly unable to resist the gigantic Demon Sword.
It was only then that Young Master Qin reacted, promptly reinforcing his Protective Spiritual Power with six layers of World Power and six layers of Sword Intent.
Mastering six layers of Sword Intent wasn’t only for reinforcing Sword Qi.
It could also be reinforced onto Protective Spiritual Power.
This was a technique available to Cultivators who mastered the six layers of Martial Arts Realm.
This time, the huge Demon Sword finally couldn’t withstand it and shattered directly.
However, the tip of the Demon Sword still pierced three inches into Young Master Qin’s chest.
Had it been even a moment later, the Demon Sword would have been enough to disembowel Young Master Qin!
Young Master Qin was drenched with sweat, breathing rapidly, with a look of relief in his eyes.
He had nearly perished on the spot!
The world was dead silent, with only the sound of Young Master Qin’s heavy breathing.
"Young Master Qin, do you concede?"
Ling Chen asked with a smile.
Young Master Qin immediately responded.
He certainly felt the last moment when the power of the Demon Sword reduced.
Even his strongest attack couldn’t withstand it, how could mere Protective Spiritual Power have resisted?
Ling Chen definitely held back towards the end.
Otherwise, he really would have died right there!
Ling Chen nodded, "Hand over the storage ring to me!"
A six-star Emperor from the Qingyun Sword Sect suddenly spoke up in the distance.
His voice was shaking.
Clearly, he was also uncertain.
Ling Chen nodded, "That is the power of ’Dao’!"
In that recent attack, it was reinforced by his comprehension of Sword Dao, hence the terrifying power!
Dao belonged to another level entirely.
Even six layers of Sword Intent couldn’t resist it!
"It really is Sword Dao!"
Young Master Qin’s eyes bulged out, with an incredulous look on his face.
Someone comprehended the Sword Dao at the fifth layer of World Realm?
This simply overturned everyone’s understanding!
Even for high-tier Emperors, realizing ’Dao’ was extremely difficult!
And, Ling Chen was merely a twenty-year-old youth?
"What, he comprehended Sword Dao? How is this possible?"
The other Emperors were going crazy too.
They simply could not believe it.
"Give me the storage ring!"
Ling Chen spoke again.
He wasn’t concerned with the shock of everyone present, he was more interested in those million top-quality Spirit Crystals!
This battle not only yielded a million top-quality Spirit Crystals but also verified the power of ’Dao’!
He didn’t expect the might of Sword Dao to be so terrifyingly unparalleled!
Even a medium-tier Emperor Spiritual Weapon was blasted to bits!
Young Master Qin, regaining his senses, quickly passed the storage ring respectfully to Ling Chen.
Thinking back, he had actually threatened Ling Chen.
He felt incredibly relieved in his heart!
If it had reached that point, Ling Chen likely would not have held back at all.
He didn’t kill him this time, probably out of regard for the Qingyun Sword Sect.
Yun Yan and Xun Wenxian both had wry smiles on their faces.
Towards Young Master Qin, they harbored a competitive spirit in their hearts!
But towards Ling Chen, they could only look up in deep respect!
"This youth is invincible!"
At this moment, a similar thought arose in the hearts of the Emperors from the ten great sects.
Ling Chen’s current strength was such that even they were not his match!
And, by the time the Qing Province Genius Rankings concluded, Ling Chen would likely completely surpass them in the Central Regions.
