At that moment, Lin Feng was shrouded in a mysterious aura of darkness. 

 His steps seemed to be corresponding to some kind of special cosmic rhythm. That cosmic rhythm seemed to follow the same laws as that of elemental forces.

The sword could diffuse a strong sword force with each strike… heaven and earth would also naturally produce a force which filled the world.

When Lin Feng released his spirit, he could sense and comprehend things in a way that was shockingly advanced, he could understand the mysteries which confused cultivators who were several realms higher. Millions of thoughts were circulating in his brain at full speed. These thoughts gave Lin Feng strange perceptions and a feeling of understanding a higher realm.

“Celestial spirit, transforms me into something unknown and unbelievably strong….” thought Lin Feng very pleased but it was impossible to see it on his face. Lin Feng’s right hand reached down and begun to remove his belt.

“Huh?” the entire crowd was looking at Lin Feng’s movements and could not believe he had just removed his belt. What was he planning to do?

“It’s… it’s a sword!” Everybody’s eyes seemed even more shocked that his silver belt had become a sword. They had already seen that Lin Feng was carrying a sword on his shoulder but they hadn’t paid attention to what was around his waist… Lin Feng seemed to be holding something which resembled a soft and flexible sword.

Lin Feng was getting nearer and nearer to Qiu Yuan Hao. At that moment, an extremely strong sword Qi was revolving around Lin Feng’s body. Lin Feng’s body seemed to look like the handle of a sword and the Qi which was emanating from his sword and body had formed a blade like shape in the air above him..

“Is that a spirit?” The entire crowd had a strange feeling and didn’t really understand what was going on. Could it be that Lin Fen had a sword spirit? Otherwise, how could he be surrounded by such an insanely strong sword Qi?

The crowd seemed to have come to the realization that Lin Feng hadn’t released his spirit at all… He hadn’t needed to… he could display a strength above that of the geniuses before them, without releasing his spirit.

With each step that he took, the sword force was becoming stronger and stronger. Just by looking at the sword, everyone could tell that the killing force contained was growing with each passing moment. Even though Lin Feng was filled with murderous thoughts and his face was shockingly calm, it also seemed like he was slightly happy.

“The ten thousands things of creation possess a force, it is part of their innermost nature and the sword itself has a force… why keep using sword Qi when there is unlimited force?”

Before, Lin Feng would need to release a lot of sword Qi to use the sword force but at this moment he was not releasing his own sword Qi, but was using the Sword force and taking the Qi from the sword into his body. He could freely control the force to his will. He could now borrow force whenever he wanted. Therefore, he could unleash as much sword force in a single strike as he pleased. He was no longer limited by his own Qi.

His entire body and aura was starting to look like a sword, like an extremely sharp and ruthless sword!

Lin Feng, deep in his heart was growing happier and happier. The sword Qi in his body and the atmosphere was also becoming more and more vigorous. However at the same time, Qiu Yuan Hao was growing more and more concerned, a look of fear was covering his face.

The whole atmosphere was being consumed by the pressure of the sword force and it felt like the sword was trying to consume him and bathe in his blood. He could only panic, he could sense that Lin Feng was a threat to his life and at any moment his life could end.

Lin Feng could really tear through his Golden Body Spirit with such a terrifying sword force.

“I shouldn’t wait any longer, I should retreat.” thought Qiu Yuan Hao. His confidence had been crushed by that enormous sword Qi and terrifying sword force. Besides, Lin Feng’s force was showing no signs of decreasing, instead it was still growing stronger. He was scared to approach Lin Feng because he feared that he wouldn’t be able to come out of the encounter with all of his body parts.

Qiu Yuan Hao would have never thought that he would end up in such a situation facing a nobody in Yangzhou City. He wasn’t even famous, he was an unknown. On top of that, his sister had invited him to join the annual tournament, so how could he be so strong? Lin Feng at this moment was looking at him as if he was looking at a street mutt.

Qiu Yuan Hao decided to start releasing his Qi again, he could not accept such humiliation from a nobody. His golden body was surrounded by a radiant golden light and he began releasing his colossal strength. His entire body was emanating a powerful Qi and he was even using an incredible force.

“Invincible Golden Body!”

In an extremely loud shout, Qiu Yuan Hao eventually decided to attack. He coated his fist in his indestructible aura and launched his fist towards Lin Feng.

“BOOM!”

As his fist crashed through the air, the sound of explosions filled the air as if he was shattering the atmosphere which restrained his fist.

“Die”

Lin Feng said that word in a low voice and suddenly, an incredibly powerful sword force emerged out of his body and tore the atmosphere apart, then rushed towards Qiu Yuan Hao’s body .

The force of the sword made Qiu Yuan Hao’s body distort. Sounds of tearing and ripping could be heard from inside his body. It sounded like his body could be torn apart at any moment.

The sword force which was unleashed was accompanied by an extremely powerful Qi. The sword flashed through the atmosphere cutting everything in its path and an extremely dazzling light filled the air.

The sword struck against Qiu Yuan Hao’s chest.

“CRRRAAAACCK!”

Qiu Yuan Hao’s body cracked open like an egg as his protective layer shattered into pieces. His spirit was disintegrated. Blood splashed everywhere and Qiu Yuan Hao’s body was launched backwards.

It was now clear that he was weaker than Lin Feng. The strong cultivator who had come from the imperial city, same as those who had come before him, had not been able to withstand a single strike carried out by Lin Feng.

At that moment, the crowd was astonished, stunned, stupefied and was staring blankly at Lin Feng.

How terrifyingly strong. That was pure and undeniable strength. No one was able to deny the power that he had just unleashed.
