Chapter 295: Breaking the Predicament

If Xiao Chen had thought of a way to break the two scarlet saber Qi earlier, he would not be in his current situation. Unfortunately, he was not decisive enough at that moment; he did not want to exhaust too much Essence.

Xiao Chen somewhat reprimanded himself in his heart. However, now was not the time for regret. Before he reached the last step, his confidence could not waver.

Since Xiao Chen could not use the state of thunder, the might of the Wukui Saber Technique was greatly crippled. It could not be used to break out of his predicament. The Lingyun Saber Technique did not even need to be mentioned; he had to think of another method.

That’s it! An idea flashed through Xiao Chen’s mind. Since he could not use states, he would use his strongest Mysterious Phenomenon and clash against the other.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen’s frown relaxed. He shouted, and the snow-white Lunar Shadow Saber glowed.

“Flight On Wings, Moon Bright Like Fire!”

A golden full moon slowly rose up from behind Xiao Chen, across from the scarlet moon.

The faint golden moon shone a gentle glow on the ground; it provided a sharp contrast to the brightly glistening scarlet moon.

“What’s going on? There is a full moon behind Xiao Chen as well,” someone up in the spectator stands exclaimed.

“What is he doing? His Mysterious Phenomenon clearly has not reached Consummation yet. If he is going to pit a Mysterious Phenomenon against Murong Chong’s, he will be at a disadvantage,” Liu Suifeng said incredibly anxiously.

When Liu Ruyue looked at the rising moon, she suddenly understood Xiao Chen’s intentions, and the worry on her face lessened slightly. At the very least, this Peerless Lunar Shadow would not be a fatal threat to Xiao Chen.

The golden moon that hung in the sky was as bright as fire. An unwaveringly determined expression flashed across Xiao Chen’s face. He shouted in mid-air, and the full moon rushed straight at Murong Chong.

“What is he thinking? Using the Mysterious Phenomenon to crash directly is too crazy. Doing this will result in damaging yourself more than the opponent.”

“Actually, in such a situation, Ye Chen has no other choice. This is the only way to break Murong Chong’s Mysterious Phenomenon.”

The people in the spectator stands watched as Xiao Chen controlled the bright moon, aiming for the moon behind Murong Chong. They were all astonished.

A faint shock appeared on Murong Chong’s face, which had been calm all the while. Then, he laughed coldly and said, “Since you want to go head-on, I shall grant you that.”

Murong Chong shouted, and the scarlet full moon gave off a dazzling light. It contained boundless killing Qi as it unhesitatingly headed for the golden full moon Xiao Chen controlled.

The golden moon and the scarlet moon moved quickly through the air. Everywhere it pa.s.sed, fluctuations appeared in s.p.a.ce; it looked like it shattered.

“Bang!”

Both moons shone brightly, competing with each other. Then, they crashed intensely high in the sky. There was a loud explosion, and the s.p.a.ce in the entire arena on the Heaven Ascending Platform trembled.

Even the distant spectator stands trembled as well. The ground would not stop shaking; it was like it had split apart. This caused everyone to feel some terror in their hearts.

“It’s too strong! This is on the same level as a Martial King fight,” a disciple in the distance exclaimed.

“Xiu!”

The two full moons shattered simultaneously. The dark s.p.a.ce immediately fractured into pieces. The sunlight that had been missing for quite a while impatiently shone down from the sky again.

At first, it was just one strand; then it became two, then three. Immediately, light rapidly extended out. The sky above the arena grew bright once more.

Both Xiao Chen and Murong Chong were incredibly pale. The force from the two Mysterious Phenomenon cras.h.i.+ng into each other caused them both significant injuries.

However, Murong Chong was in a better state than Xiao Chen. Although the strength Murong Chong’s Mysterious Phenomenon was about the same as Xiao Chen, it had already reached Consummation. Hence, it was still slightly stronger.

Only after resting for a while did Murong Chong shout and grasp his saber. He transformed into a cool breeze and attacked. However, there was no killing Qi from him; there was not even a trace. Then, his body mysteriously disappeared before the audience’s eyes.

The Clear Wind Chop again? Xiao Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and revealed a cold smile.

Actually, Murong Chong had not practiced the Clear Wind Chop to Consummation. He had only perfectly merged the Great Perfection Clear Wind Chop with the state of wind. Hence, he managed to achieve such a result.

This move was one of Murong Chong’s signature moves. If Xiao Chen had not seen this the first time they met, he might feel helpless. However, after he had perfectly merged the state of thunder into his saber, Xiao Chen did not worry about this move anymore.

“Wukui Transforms to Qi!”

Xiao Chen shouted, and an ancient divine tree appeared out of nowhere. It turned into strands of purple saber Qi and moved around chaotically.

“Rumble…!”

Above Xiao Chen’s head, thunderclouds formed again, churning continuously. The state of thunder perfectly merged with his Saber Technique. When Xiao Chen attacked, the thunder rumbled.

When Murong Chong, who hid in the clear wind, saw the purple saber Qi flying in the air on a large scale, he frowned slightly.

These saber Qi infused with the state of Thunder could injure his body hidden in the wind. Now that it covered such a large area, he had no safe way to get near at all.

Xiao Chen’s Spiritual Sense extended out and scanned the area relentlessly. Finally, it felt a faint abnormal fluctuation on his eight o’clock.

“Qi Breaks Wukui!”

With no hesitation, Xiao Chen immediately executed the third move of the Wukui Saber Technique when he discovered that blurry figure. Thunder cracked in the sky.

The countless purple saber Qi flying in the sky formed a boundless, resplendent saber Qi the instant the thunder crackled. Then, it flew in the direction Xiao Chen felt the abnormality.

The instant the thunder crackled, Murong Chong felt danger. However, when he wanted to move, he discovered, the moment the thunder crackled, a resplendent saber Qi was already before him.

Its speed actually surpa.s.sed the sound barrier in that instant. Regardless of whichever direction he moved in, he could not dodge it.
