As soon as these words were spoken, everyone displayed a look of shock.
Could it be that this wasn’t Ling Chen’s final move?
Previously, when Ling Chen faced Jiang Yuan, he used the Void Deceit Technique to defeat Jiang Yuan.
However, Zhan Hongtu is not comparable to Jiang Yuan.
Even if Ling Chen attacks closely, he might not be able to defeat Zhan Hongtu.
Because Zhan Hongtu has the upper hand in terms of Heaven and Earth Power.
With only a mere physical body, it might not be enough to bridge such a gap.
"Boy, whatever tricks you have, just use them!"
Zhan Hongtu’s eyes slightly narrowed.
He would not underestimate his opponent.
Just now, he had not entered the Void.
It was because he feared Ling Chen’s techniques within the Void.
"Zhan Hongtu, admit defeat to me!"
Ling Chen smirked coldly.
"Green Lotus Prison Peak!"
Ling Chen once again performed the Green Lotus Sword Manual.
Condensing into a green and red mountain peak.
"Last time I was not a match, and this time, you are still no match!"
The flying sword three inches before him once again expanded to thirty feet, evidently deploying a lower-grade Emperor Thought Technique.
Ling Chen grinned and said, "Then open your eyes wide and watch!"
With that, two-thirds of the Heaven and Earth Power was instantly bestowed.
Originally, the green and red mountain peak invoked one and a third portion of the Heaven and Earth Power.
This time, with the addition of the Heaven and Earth Power through his Divine Soul, the power of the green and red mountain peak almost approached two portions.
"Has his cultivation changed again?"
The nine Great Emperors including Chu Tongtian were the first to react.
Previously, Ling Chen at most controlled one and six-tenths of the Heaven and Earth Power, but now, it was almost approaching two portions.
Completely catching up with Zhan Hongtu.
Zhan Hongtu couldn’t help but change his expression.
Ling Chen had actually hidden his cultivation?
But he had not sensed it at all!
Moreover, he had asked the Sect Leader, who had said that Ling Chen’s previous performance was his limit.
There was no time to think, as Zhan Hongtu immediately urged the thirty-foot-long sword to strike at the green and red mountain peak.
"Could it be that the Heaven and Earth Power controlled by his two attacks is mostly different?"
Zhong Ling was utterly astonished.
Previously, he had asked Ling Chen, who said that the mid-star peak was his limit.
Unexpectedly, this young boy dared to deceive her!
Making her worry for nothing!
Once the battle ended, she was determined to teach this young boy a good lesson!
Two attacks collided once again.
A world-shaking explosion erupted.
This time, the thirty-foot-long sword no longer held the terror it once did.
The two attacks stalemated for several breaths before completely dissipating.
The three-inch flying sword was even repelled.
"How profound is Young Master Ling’s cultivation?"
Many people were incredulous.
Since Ling Chen’s appearance, his cultivation had been a mystery.
Peak one-star, almost two-star.
"Zhan Hongtu, do you concede?"
Ling Chen gazed intently at Zhan Hongtu and asked.
With such cultivation, if it came to a close combat battle, Zhan Hongtu would surely not be a match.
Divine Thought Master, eh!
Previously utilizing Divine Soul Attacks, even if transitioning to a Spiritual Power Practitioner, he still could not compare to the latter.
Moreover, in close combat, Ling Chen’s physical body advantages could be fully utilized.
Zhan Hongtu stared at Ling Chen with a strange expression.
He remained silent for a long time.
Ling Chen also kept his gaze fixed.
He believed that Zhan Hongtu would make the right decision.
Would only be to increase injuries needlessly.
"Young Master Ling, I could not have guessed you had such techniques!"
"Very well, I concede. Congratulations to Young Master Ling, congratulations to the Flower Immortal Sect for winning the laurels!"
Words of resignation flowed from Zhan Hongtu’s mouth.
His voice was filled with sighs.
Then, Zhan Hongtu descended towards the Taixuan Immortal Sect.
Ling Chen’s eyes lit up, his face displaying extreme joy.
The Divine Beast Essence Blood was about to be his.
He could merge the Lunar-Solar Divine Body!
At this time, the people of the Flower Immortal Sect excitedly surrounded Ling Chen.
At that moment, a figure appeared.
"Chen Er, you’ve come."
A beautiful woman looked at Ling Chen.
Seeing the woman who was almost identical to the one in the portrait, Ling Chen was overcome with emotion, tears welling up, he couldn’t help but call out.
"Chen Er, amazing! Worthy of being mother’s good son, when I was young, I was not nearly as good as you!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Chen furrowed his brow.
Ling Chen suddenly felt an eerie foreboding.
His Mystic Sword in hand suddenly slashed forward.
The sound of metal clashing rang out.
Hearing this sound, the scene before Ling Chen changed, and he was once again on the battlefield.
In his vision appeared Zhan Hongtu, who wore a look of shock.
Struck with disbelief, Zhan Hongtu exclaimed, "How could you break my Heart Illusion Technique?"
It turned out that what had happened just now was all an illusion.
Ling Chen had fallen into an Illusion Technique.
Just when Zhan Hongtu was silent earlier, he had secretly used the Heart Illusion Technique.
This Heart Illusion Technique was, in fact, an Illusion Technique.
Divine Thought Masters indeed cannot attack Divine Souls.
However, Divine Thought Masters still possess the ability to virtualize Divine Soul Telekinesis.
They may not attack, but with certain methods, they could lead opponents into an Illusion Realm.
This too could defeat opponents.
This Heart Illusion Technique emphasizes exploring people’s inner thoughts and struggles.
Currently, Ling Chen had two internal struggles.
One was merging the Lunar-Solar Divine Body.
The other was acknowledging his mother.
However, Zhan Hongtu made a slip when exploiting the second internal struggle.
Ling Chen recalled his father saying.
He was named Chen in the hope he’d live like a speck of dust, an ordinary life, joyfully.
How could his mother praise him for his great strength?
Thus, Ling Chen immediately realized.
"Your Illusion Technique still lacks refinement!"
With a move, he appeared in front of Zhan Hongtu, his Mystic Sword directly poised between Zhan Hongtu’s neck.
Seeing this, only then did Zhong Ling and others sigh in relief.
Moments ago, when Ling Chen stood motionless, they were truly frightened.
"I deserved to lose!"
Even his trump card, the Heart Illusion Technique, couldn’t handle Ling Chen.
Moreover, Ling Chen’s combat strength exceeded his own.
Zong Lian glanced at Zhan Hongtu, though reluctant, he still announced, "Ling Chen, victory! The Flower Immortal Sect seizes the laurels in this New Emperor Contest!"
It wasn’t until Zhong Ling approached that Ling Chen released Zhan Hongtu.
He was wary it might still be an Illusion Realm.
Long Qingying and Liu Yue were also ecstatic.
Previously, the Flower Immortal Sect was always at the bottom.
How could they not be excited now?
Zhong Ling and Yun Shang were quite excited too.
However, they managed to keep their composure.
Not behaving excessively.
"Young Master Ling has truly won."
The disciples of the Taixuan Immortal Sect said. The source of thɪs content is novel⁂fire.net
In the end, it was close for Zhan Hongtu.
Ling Chen’s sudden surge in cultivation and Zhan Hongtu’s Heart Illusion Technique had opened their eyes.
They, the ones from the Taixuan Immortal Sect, weren’t unjustly defeated.
The other seven Heavenly Sect Great Emperors came over to congratulate Elder Zhong.
Even Chu Tongtian did so.
