Chapter 225: Mysterious Phenomenon Manifested

“Do it! Finish him first!” Zhang Lie had also expected that Mu Heng would not be easily defeated by a few strands of saber Qi. This was just an appetizer.

The moment Zhang Lie spoke, the ten strong Tianyue Peak disciples pushed off against the sharp spear tip and launched themselves at Beichen Peak’s Mu Heng.

“I will deal with them, you don’t have to do anything,” Mu Heng told the Beichen Peak disciples behind him who were about to help him.

Mu Heng stomped heavily on the spear tip below him. Under the heavy force, the body of the spear started bending and it sprang back up with a ‘xiu’ sound; Mu Heng flew up into the air instantly.

Mu Heng, who launched himself into the air with the aid of the spear, pulled out a spear tip as he was flying up. He smiled faintly at the people leaping over to him from his front and threw the spear tip at them.

“Bang!”

The spear tip exploded halfway and turning into countless metal shrapnel. The shards were moving at a high speed, creating shockwaves and turning into sharp weapons of slaughter.

“Clouds around the Peak!” Zhang Lie shouted and executed the first move of the Lingyun Saber Technique—Clouds around the Peak.

Suddenly, clouds and mist appeared on the spear formation. The summit of a mountain rose up and blocked all the shrapnel. Numerous ‘dang dang dang’ sounds rang out.

When the cloud and mist scattered, everyone realized that mountain image was actually the saber in Zhang Lie’s hand. The saber had ferociously struck down all the shrapnel instantly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Mu Heng, who had already moved about a hundred meters, casually pulled out another spear and chopped it in half with his palm. With a ‘xiu’ sound, he threw the halves out.

The broken spear halves were spinning in the air quickly. As they flew out, they pulled in the air from their surroundings, creating three-meter tornados around themselves.

I can’t carry on like this! Zhang Lie shouted, “Help me block this move, I’ll chase after him!”

“Sou! Sou!”

Four inner disciples leaped out from behind him. They moved in different directions, two on each side. They pulled their sabers out at the same time, each creating a ten-meter high saber light to hack at the tornados.

Zhang Lie did not care about the results of their moves. He did not hesitate at all as he moved through the s.p.a.ce between the tornados and charged rapidly at Mu Heng.

When Mu Heng saw Zhang Lie coming after him alone, he revealed a smile. He stomped on the spear tip and there was an explosion. The spear tip immediately turned into countless pieces as he flew backward.

“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Every step Mu Heng took would result in an explosion of the spear tip below him. They turned into countless shards of metal shrapnel, moving at high speed and creating shockwaves. Like the rain of a torrential storm, they fired at Zhang Lie who was following him.

Zhang Lie took a look and saw a wave of lethal shrapnel obscuring his vision. There were so many they were uncountable. If he wanted to continue the chase, he would have to breakthrough this storm of shrapnel.

In order to do so, he would have to use a significant amount of Essence. He felt like he had fallen for Mu Heng’s trap. Zhang Lie thought to himself, However, it is impossible for him to know that I cultivate a Superior Grade Earth Ranked Cultivation Technique. The amount of Essence I have in reserve is definitely much more than him.

When Zhang Lie thought of this, he revealed a mocking smile as he shouted, “Spinning Mountain Destroys Clouds!”

This was the second move of the Lingyun Saber Technique. A mysterious phenomenon was condensed, a mountain appeared from nowhere. To everyone’s surprise, the mountain actually started spinning.

“Rumble…!”

The mountain spun, and the entire drill grounds started shaking. There were a few unfortunate inner disciples who immediately fell from the spear tips.

When Xiao Chen saw that both the Lingyun Saber Technique moves Zhang Lie executed had mysterious phenomena, Xiao Chen was secretly astonished. He did not expect Zhang Lie’s talent to be so high.

“However, being able to create mysterious phenomena does not mean that his comprehension of Lingyun Saber Technique is deeper than mine,” Xiao Chen said to himself indifferently.

Mysterious phenomena were a kind of supplement for Martial techniques. However, if the mysterious phenomenon was not complete and was recklessly manifested, there would be a huge backlash on their Essence when it was broken.

Back when Xiao Chen was fighting Chu Chaoyun, he had suffered a huge disadvantage. His opponent only used half a move to destroy the mysterious phenomenon of his Moon Bright Like Fire. This resulted in a backlash to his Essence, and he completely lost his combat abilities.

Hence, Xiao Chen had always been very cautious of using mysterious phenomena after that.

There were two ways to destroy mysterious phenomena. The first was to find the weak point of the mysterious phenomenon—like Chu Chaoyun did back then.

The second was to break it forcefully; to use absolute power to shatter the opponent’s mysterious phenomenon—like Xiao Chen did earlier. No one knew which method Mu Heng would choose to use.

The spinning mountain was a few hundred meters tall, with an unknown width. There were turbulent winds as it covered the sky, turning the place dark. The brightly burning sun was completely covered by it.

The rain-like small metal fragments struck the mountain peak with ‘ding ding dang dang’ sounds. They were completely useless, and fell to the ground.

Mu Heng turned around to take a look, his expression not surprised in the least. He stared at the illusion of the spinning mountain peak; it was the only thing he saw, nothing but that.

As the mountain drew nearer, Mu Heng still did not have any change in his expression. It was as though he did not know he could be easily crushed by it when it got near to him.

I still can’t find the weak point. It is too difficult to find the weak point of the mysterious phenomenon, Mu Heng mentally shook his head and sighed.

Although the mysterious phenomenon Zhang Lie exhibited was not perfect, it was not easy to find its weak points.
