Chapter 542: Chapter 491 Qingyun First_2

Seeing his initial strike unsuccessful, Qi Lingzi immediately commanded his incarnations wielding swords, spears, hammers and other weapons, to continue their assault.

Although their weapons varied wildly, each one was a meticulously crafted Spiritual Artifact, unmatched in sharpness and of overwhelming power.

However, all of this had no effect on Xu Mu.

Xu Mu’s Vanquisher of Tribulations, as long as not killed in one hit, could quickly recover and consequently became stronger.

Thus, this level of intense attack from the opponent was not an attack for him; rather, it appeared to be aiding him in getting stronger.

So, Xu Mu was not in a rush, and continued to wear down his opponent. Although it seemed like he could be defeated at any moment, he remained undefeated.

The stalemate continued just like this.

The first to falter was Qi Lingzi.

Although his cultivation level was double that of Xu Mu, Xu Mu’s Thunderring Martial Method was bizarrely ferocious and completely unconventional, which put him at a significant disadvantage in the fight.

The most crucial point was that even though he had more than a dozen incarnations, his true body was still there. Over a long period, his true body would inevitably be affected.

Qi Lingzi had no choice but to suppress Xu Mu, forcing him to battle his true body.

Only in this way could he possibly win the combat.

However, Xu Mu wouldn’t let him succeed so easily and immediately counterattacked.

Boom!

Purple thunder-bolts transformed into a thunder dragon, hitting one of the incarnations hard, hurling it away.

Seeing one of his incarnations destroyed, Qi Lingzi immediately retreated in shock.

It was not his true body but simply an incarnation that was condensed using special methods.

If not for this, he would have met Xu Mu head-on with his true body already, instead of letting Xu Mu destroy his incarnations.

Qi Lingzi knew in his heart that he had picked a tough opponent this time.

Xu Mu was more difficult to deal with than he had imagined. His Vanquisher of Tribulations was bizarrely strong.

If he lost this battle, he would forfeit his opportunity to compete for the championship.

At this moment, Qi Lingzi began to take the fight seriously, not daring to hold anything back.

He made hand signs, and immediately a green light gathered above his head, transforming into a green flying sword.

Simultaneously, a crack abruptly opened in the ground beneath his feet, and a burst of black mist charged towards the sky.

Before Xu Mu could even react, the black mist transformed into a black whirlwind, wrapping him up within.

Xu Mu, trapped inside this black whirlwind, felt a powerful gust of wind surrounding him and his vision instantly became blurry.

He was taken aback as the black whirlwind had a strong corrosive power. If it were to erode his body, it would cause severe injuries or even a complete loss of his cultivation base.

Moreover, this black whirlwind also affected the functioning of his Thunderring Martial Method.

Boom!

Thunder blazed on Xu Mu’s body as he tried to repel the black whirlwind with thunder power.

However, the black whirlwind seemed sentient and immediately entwined him again, continuing to envelop him.

Just as the black whirlwind was about to make contact with Xu Mu’s body, a loud explosion rang out from within.

Then, the black whirlwind exploded instantly, and a figure flew out from it.

Xu Mu!

Xu Mu had thunder flashing all over his body; his face was pale as a sheet. It was evident that the previous action had overtaxed him.

But at least he was still alive and had not suffered any severe injuries.

On the other hand, Qi Lingzi’s face was not much better than Xu Mu’s. He had expected to take down Xu Mu with his previous move, but Xu Mu had eluded him again.

What secret was this young man harboring that made him so hard to handle?

Qi Lingzi was shocked but his determination to uncover the secrets of Xu Mu grew even further.

Otherwise, in future battles, he could easily fall into the hands of others if he wasn’t careful.

Qi Lingzi, seeing that he was unable to gain an upper hand over Xu Mu for the time being, decided not to waste any more time, and resorted to his last technique.

He made hand signs again, and immediately his dozen or so incarnations attacked Xu Mu simultaneously.

Each incarnation held a powerful Spiritual Artifact, their onslaught overwhelming and compelling.

And he, his true body, holding a green flying sword, transformed into a beam of green light shooting towards Xu Mu.
