C49 (1/2)

After quietly comprehending for an entire night, I was still unable to completely comprehend this sword art. If not for the few years I spent in the Valley, my achievements would not have been much worse than Qiu Xuan's. However, with this sword art, I was unable to understand it in one night, and didn't know how profound it was.

However, although he hadn't fully comprehended it, he already knew sixty to seventy percent of it. I picked up a leaf and activated my sword art. The leaf trembled a few times before splitting apart.

Ye Zichen laughed bitterly. It is still not enough … What they did not expect was that Bai Yu would actually send out such a strong disciple to compete, and even beat Xu Cangyuan. They were secretly thinking of ways to get rid of me.

They were followed by Tian Yu, Guang Liang and You Menglan. Tian Yu had lost the competition and seeing me so powerful, it could have been out of shame or jealousy. At this moment, he was hiding behind Pu Xuan with his head lowered, not knowing what to think. Guang Liang and You Menglan only started to think more seriously of me after seeing that I broke the Thunder of Wrath last time. However, it was only slightly better because they also noticed that Xu Cangyuan was not serious.

Ling Kong still had his arrogant look, but the way he looked at me was like a needle, stabbing deep into my heart!

I forcefully suppressed the hatred in my heart as I clasped my hands together with a cold expression and said, ”Disciple Chen Ziming from the Baiyu Sect greets Senior Brother.”

”Mm, not bad. Junior Apprentice Brother is so young and has reached such a level. In the future, your achievements will be limitless!” Ling Kong smirked as he exchanged a few pleasantries.

”Then I'll be counting on senior's blessings.”

I didn't want to waste my breath and drew my sword, pointing it towards the sky. Because Qiu Xuan gave me a sword art, I changed the longblade into a sword this time. The sword intents, originally did not conflict with each other.

”Junior brother, don't be anxious. How about we determine the victor with one move today?”

A fake smile hung on Ling Kong's face. I knew that he was Qiu Xi, and Qiu Xi was shrewd and scheming. If she said that victory and defeat would be decided in one move, she would definitely be confident.

”One move is too little. Junior has always liked fighting with others. How about this, I won't add more. How about two moves?”

I don't know how confident you are, but I'm not in your favor!

”Alright, let's do as junior says.” Ling Kong's expression did not change as he calmly replied.

I held my sword horizontally as my Spiritual Energy slowly surged. I stared fixedly at the indifferent Ling Kong. This time, I will not hold back in the slightest!

”Hah!”

I shouted loudly and the sword in my hand suddenly shone with a sword shadow that was over ten zhang in size. I stabbed out with my sword! This is my strongest sword attack after condensing my spiritual energy!

Ling Kong did not panic. With a twist of his right palm, he suddenly struck the air with his palm!

”Dang …”

It was as though I had stabbed at a shield. The sword that I thrust forward was unable to advance any further. In the air in front of my palm, it seemed as though a transparent barrier had cracked and gradually extended.

I looked at the smiling Ling Kong. You want to block this strike just like that? You're underestimating me!

Spitting out a mouthful of Core Qi, I shouted once more, and the sword in my hand shattered with a loud bang!

”Clang!”

A sword shadow seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, smashing right into the palm of his hand!

”Ka ka …”

Ling Kong's facial expression changed slightly. The cracks in the air in front of his palm were like spider webs, densely packed and seemingly unable to last much longer.

In one go!

The power in my palm fiercely spits out. ”Clank, clank, clank …” A series of thirty-six sword shadows thrust out at the same time, and the entire martial arena was enveloped in a layer of sword Qi.

Ling Kong's facial expression changed drastically. He moved both his palms in unison, as if he wanted to create a curtain in the sky to forcefully push his palms forward!

”Clang!”

With a loud explosion, the sword image disappeared and the sky was filled with ”bang bang bang” as it retreated dozens of steps back. Every step back left a footprint half a foot deep on the stage and his right palm was dripping with blood.

While Ling Kong was still in shock, my feet moved and the sword art Qiu Xuan taught me was already brewing in my fingers.

”The second move!”

Not giving him the slightest opportunity to catch his breath, I immediately used my lightning fast second move, vowing to force him into a corner!

I know that it would be difficult for me to hurt the real Qiu Xi in the slightest, and even if I were to fight him fair and square, it would be difficult for me to force him to reveal any trace of his true strength.

Qiu Xi was Qiu Xi. In that short moment, she immediately reacted and formed a seal with her hands. She abruptly spread out a shield and protected Qiu Xi tightly within it.

I didn't care about anything else, my two fingers forming a sword as I pointed out continuously.
