Chapter 273: Who is the Strongest of the Younger Generation Translator: _Dark_Angel_ Editor: Kurisu
Now, there were only a few paths left—when four paths joined to become two, and two paths joined to become one. Technically, that would mean one only had to defeat two more people to reach the peak.
Of course, there was a Hu Niu who did not like playing by the rules who was currently standing by at a higher spot, waiting to attack. However, speed did not represent battle prowess. Once embroiled in a close quarters combat, the advantage of superior speed would be greatly decreased.
Out of the five of them, who would be the last one standing?
On the next path, Yan Tian Zhao versus Can Ye, and Feng Yan versus Ling Han!
“Go!” Yan Tian Zhao moved. With a flick of his sleeve, xiu, xiu, xiu , seven battle spears shot out. These spears were formed from Origin Power and were entirely black in color. There were patterns engraved on the bodies of these spears formed from his martial intent.
Can Ye dared not be careless. There was a gap of an entire tier between them, and this was a gap that could mean he would be completely dominated by his opponent. He brandished his saber in a slash and displayed his full ability without holding anything back.
As the saber flashed, five flashes of Saber Qi shone brilliantly.
To be honest, five flashes of Saber Qi was extremely impressive. Before Ling Han had delved into discussions about the art of the sword with Mo Gao, he had also only formed five flashes of Sword Qi, and this was still based on the comprehension about martial arts that he had retained from his last life.
However, the Spiritual Ocean Tier was much too powerful. Moreover, Yan Tian Zhao was obviously a genius whose battle prowess exceeded his cultivation level. Can Ye put all his effort into it, and ding, ding, ding , somehow managed to shatter three battle spears. But there were still four remaining that, no matter how much he tried, he could not get rid of.
Pu, pu, pu, pu . He was instantly pierced through by four battle spears, and the force of the attack flung him away.
Thankfully, Yan Tian Zhao obviously took care in how much power he put into his attack. These four spears pierced respectively into his shoulders and legs, yet managed to miss his vital spots. Otherwise, the Rain Emperor was sitting at the peak, and if he made a move, that would signify a dramatic change of events.
The four battle spears contained Yan Tian Zhao’s martial intent. As a result, though the battle spears would disappear once they entered one’s body since they were formed from Origin Power, the martial intent contained in them would still subdue Can Ye. Can Ye was not able to move one bit, and with a peng , he fell heavily onto the ground.
“Heng!” A figure shot out and picked up Can Ye. It was Lian Guangzu.
When he saw Ling Han, Feng Yan, and Yan Tian Zhao who were nearing the peak, there was a complicated expression in his eyes. Yet he merely gave a sigh, withdrew his gaze, and began to treat Can Ye’s injuries.
Can Ye’s body trembled slightly, and his one hand was tightly gripped into a fist. He had even bitten so hard onto his lip that it had began bleeding.
“Don’t be despondent. It is no humiliation to lose at the hands of a Spiritual Ocean Tier elite.” Lian Guangzu comforted his only disciple.
Can Ye did not cheer up because of this. Instead, he looked towards Ling Han, and said, “He is stronger than me!”
Near to the peak, Ling Han was currently engaged in a fierce battle with Feng Yan.
“Hahaha, are you prepared?” Feng Yan smirked. “Now I am in the Spiritual Ocean Tier, so how do you plan to block me?” He punched out a fist, hong, nine long sabers appeared and shot towards Ling Han together with his fist.
These nine long sabers were naturally formed from Origin Power. The martial intent contained in them became intricate patterns that shone on the bodies of these sabers, and it was as if they were like divine sabers.
Ling Han laughed loudly. He waved his sword in a slash, and used the Four Seasons Sword Technique. Every move had four Styles, Winter, Summer, Autumn and Spring. Four images circulated, forming an unbroken sword intent, possessing formidable power.
Peng, peng, peng, peng . The nine long sabers were instantly shattered, and Ling Han’s Four Seasons Sword Technique also disappeared at the same time.
The scene that Can Ye saw was precisely this one, and this was something he could not accept.
Not too long ago, he was still capable of ripping Ling Han in half with a single wave of his saber. Ling Han had only managed to escape that fate through a trick. But just how much time had pa.s.sed since then? Now Ling Han was able to disperse the attack of a Spiritual Ocean Tier opponent, whereas he himself was defeated with a single strike.
The gap between the two of them was indescribably wide.
“These three… are the real monsters. You do not have to follow them, just go at your own pace,” Lian Guangzu advised. At the same time, he really felt that it was a great pity, as he had once wanted to take Ling Han as his disciple. However, because Feng Yan’s matter had quickly happened after that, he was completely pushed onto the side opposing Ling Han.
