Supreme Dragon Martial Soul-Chapter 305: Swordsman Meets Swordsman, Killing You with a Flip of the Palm!
Chapter 305: Chapter 305: Swordsman Meets Swordsman, Killing You with a Flip of the Palm!
Qi Guyun stared intently at Luo Cheng, wanting to see emotions of hesitation, fear, despair, and struggle on his face.
Unfortunately, the result disappointed him.
Luo Cheng’s black hair billowed, his expression calm and unperturbed, while his serene eyes revealed a peerless sharpness:
"Until the very last moment, no one can predict the true outcome!"
At this moment, Luo Cheng no longer concealed his strength, as the nine Essence Energy Vortexes within his body erupted with full force.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Nine Essence Energy Vortexes roared furiously, producing tumultuous sounds like crashing waves!
In an instant, an overwhelming surge of Essence Energy emanated from Luo Cheng’s body, transforming into a raging wind that swept everything in its path, clashing fiercely against Qi Guyun’s aura. Their collision created a subtle contest of dominance that caused the entire arena’s atmosphere to hum and tremble!
"Hiss! Such powerful Essence Energy fluctuations! It’s not weaker than Qi Guyun’s! Luo Cheng was still holding back all this time..."
"No wonder he dared to challenge Qi Guyun in a life-and-death showdown! So he had a trump card up his sleeve!"
"This is unbelievable! Qi Guyun has achieved Divine Bridge and reached Half-step Absolute Vein Realm! Luo Cheng’s Realm is far beneath his, yet his aura rivals Qi Guyun’s without faltering! Could this really be happening?!"
The crowd was stunned, their disbelief clearly written on their faces.
In the audience seats, Chen Lingyu, who had helped Lin Xiaoyun sit down earlier, froze slightly, her gaze growing absent as she looked at Luo Cheng.
She distinctly remembered that just over a month ago, when Luo Cheng had asked for her assistance in training, his strength was merely at the Tongxuan Realm Third Layer Middle Stage!
A casual punch from her could easily defeat him!
And now, Luo Cheng had continuously shattered his limits, reaching a level of power she couldn’t even begin to approach!
Advancing so immensely in such a short amount of time!
This seems impossible, doesn’t it?
"That guy! Turns out when he said he aimed to win first place in the Outer Sect Grand Competition, he wasn’t boasting!"
Sitting nearby, Tuoba Lie swallowed hard, almost biting his own tongue. He couldn’t have imagined that Luo Cheng had been concealing so much!
"Impossible! He’s only a Tongxuan Realm Second Layer Martial Artist—how can he possess such power?!"
The Eighth Prince Jin Min clenched his fist tightly, his expression dark. Luo Cheng’s strength had far exceeded his imagination, filling him with unease!
Exhaling lightly, Jin Min looked toward Qi Guyun, his tightly furrowed brows smoothing out as he spoke coldly:
"Hmph! No matter how strong you are, today you will still die!"
Even if Luo Cheng’s aura was overwhelming, he was merely a Tongxuan Realm Second Layer Martial Artist—formidable on the outside but lacking substance within!
Qi Guyun, on the other hand, was a true Half-step Absolute Vein Realm warrior. When his Martial Soul was unleashed, his combat power would increase substantially, enabling him to easily crush any Tongxuan Realm Martial Artist!
Moreover, Qi Guyun had mastered the supreme secret technique of the Great Yue Dynasty Imperial Family, allowing him to amplify his combat strength significantly! ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Once this secret technique was employed, his power would rival that of an actual Awakening Vein Realm expert—with absolutely no reason to lose!
In the arena.
With all nine Essence Energy Vortexes fully activated, Luo Cheng felt his body relax completely.
In the previous battles, he had always felt somewhat restrained, but now, for the first time, there was a sense of unrestricted exhilaration. Even his Flame Trace Sword seemed to resonate with his will, vibrating gently!
Lifting his gaze to Qi Guyun, Luo Cheng’s eyes shone with an intense brilliance. He spoke, "You’ve expended some energy from your earlier battle with Senior Lin. I can give you time to recover to your peak state."
Upon hearing this, Qi Guyun’s pupils shrank abruptly, then he burst into laughter:
"What a joke! A mere ant daring to worry about a tiger or leopard! Killing you will take mere moments—three tenths of my power is more than enough! Why would I need to be in peak condition?"
Qi Guyun’s words were brimming with absolute confidence.
He could sense that Luo Cheng’s aura had grown significantly stronger than before.
However, he was a warrior who had achieved Divine Bridge and reached Half-step Awakening Vein Realm—virtually invincible in the Tongxuan Realm!
A Tongxuan Realm Second Layer Martial Artist was unworthy of his attention!
Swish!
The tip of the sword pointed directly at Luo Cheng as Qi Guyun spoke coldly, "There’s no need for pointless delays—today, you will undoubtedly die!"
Luo Cheng’s expression revealed neither joy nor anger. He nodded slightly and said, "Since that’s the case, there’s no point in further words. Let’s fight!"
As soon as the word "fight" was uttered, the Flame Trace Sword in Luo Cheng’s hand let out a clear, resonant hum. His aura grew even sharper, and his seemingly frail figure gave off an illusion of towering, unshakeable majesty. The surrounding Outer Sect disciples instinctively held their breath, their hearts pounding!
Qi Guyun’s gaze lowered slightly, his body releasing an aura as vast as the deep ocean. His eyes, sharp as blades, locked onto Luo Cheng.
"One sword to kill you!"
With a cold shout, Qi Guyun took a step forward, instantly closing the distance between them to less than twenty paces.
"Sword Waterfall!"
As soon as he struck, Qi Guyun pushed his combat power to its peak. With one sword, a torrent of Essence Energy transformed into a gigantic beam-like Sword Qi, slashing intensely forward.
Crack!
Wherever the Sword Qi passed, the arena fractured continuously. The sharp aura was so intense it made the scalp tingle!
Luo Cheng stood still, his gaze tranquil like water. Man and sword seemed to merge into one, with unmatched sharpness radiating from him, growing ever stronger!
"Electric Passage!"
As the Sword Qi approached, Luo Cheng struck with his own blade, releasing an electrifying sword light reminiscent of lightning piercing through the clouds. Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the tip of his Sword Qi precisely countered Qi Guyun’s own Sword Qi!
Boom!
The air erupted into chaos as the two streams of Sword Qi simultaneously dissipated. The terrifying force tore across the arena, leaving behind deep, crisscrossing sword scars!
"This is the pinnacle of a swordsman’s duel! Absolutely terrifying!"
An Outer Sect disciple couldn’t help but cry out, his voice trembling.
"I’ve always heard that battles between master swordsmen can strike terror in the heart with every move. Today, I finally see it’s true!"
Many Outer Sect disciples turned pale at the spectacle—it was entirely overwhelming even just as spectators.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Within the chaotic energy streams, the two figures simultaneously retreated backward.
"Evenly matched!"
The crowd was once again struck with awe.
In earlier battles, Qi Guyun had always defeated his opponents with overwhelming speed—even the second-ranked Lin Xiaoyun only lasted two moves!
This time, faced with Luo Cheng, he hadn’t gained the slightest upper hand!
"Take another of my swords!"
After the first strike proved ineffective, Qi Guyun’s eyes turned completely cold. His previous poise vanished as his aura exploded once more. He stamped his foot and ascended into the sky, soaring a hundred meters high!
"Sword Storm!"
In midair, Qi Guyun shouted deeply, unleashing the killing blow that had defeated Lin Xiaoyun!
Boom—boom—boom!
His Treasure Sword slashed through the air in a dazzling arc as countless streams of Sword Qi erupted outward, twisting into a massive, cone-shaped vortex. It was even larger and more awe-inspiring than when he defeated Lin Xiaoyun, obliterating everything in its path and creating a region of absolute vacuum!
Crack!
Though the Sword Qi hadn’t yet arrived, the arena began collapsing under its terrifying pressure, rubble flying into the air like scattered blossoms!
Luo Cheng stood at the center of the sword aura, his clothing whipping in the wind, black hair swirling as his feet sank deeper under the impact of the onslaught!
"A Half-step Absolute Vein Realm warrior truly is extraordinary!"
For the first time, Luo Cheng felt enormous pressure, but his gaze grew even firmer, shining like an unsheathed peerless sword locked upon Qi Guyun. Within him, all nine Essence Energy Vortexes roared like thunder, pouring torrents of energy into the Flame Trace Sword, causing it to tremble violently. The central groove of the blade emitted radiant light akin to the sun!
"Thunder Sound! Slash!"
After pushing his momentum to its peak, Luo Cheng struck with a single sword—a strike completely devoid of any worldly fireworks.
"It’s that sword!"
A significant number of people instinctively held their breath.
Previously, the fifth-ranked Xu Qifeng among the Ten Disciples perished under this very sword strike without even the slightest chance to resist!
