Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate-Chapter 1404 - 729 Lin Tianyun Appears

"Boom..."

The longsword moved swiftly, its aura possessing an overwhelming momentum.

At this moment, the cultivator facing off against him with the surname Min also seemed quite formidable; his attack was bizarre, and the speed was equally astounding.

After all, his attack was a streak of black light, extremely fast and incredibly covert.

Under such bombardment, it was nearly impossible to trace with the naked eye.

However, the cultivator with the surname He had quite a strong cultivation, and his combat experience was very rich.

Though the opponent’s attack was bizarre, both sides approached the first round with a probing mindset.

Moreover, his own attack covered a large area, so even though the black light was fast, it could not break through his obstruction.

Thus, amidst the rumbling sound, the attacks from both sides clashed hard against each other.

"Bang..."

At that instant, a deafening explosion rang out, instantly creating a sea of fire in the sky.

Simultaneously, a massive shockwave formed a towering wave, sweeping in all directions.

Soon, these waves crashed against the formation’s light barrier, producing bursts of explosive sounds.

Eventually, the waves were contained by the formation and finally dissipated into the heavens and earth.

Just then, the sky briefly restored its calm; the Third Order Formation continued to operate as if nothing had happened, except for the faint traces left within the formation that bore evidence of the recent exchange.

At this moment, the two contenders reappeared in everyone’s view.

Looking around, the position of these two had changed; the cultivator with the surname He retreated tens of feet back.

Meanwhile, his complexion was slightly pale, evidently having borne considerable recoil force during the exchange.

In contrast, the cultivator with the surname Min only stepped back slightly, maintaining a calm and steady demeanor, seemingly handling his opponent’s attack with ease.

Seeing this, the cultivator with the surname Min couldn’t help but reveal a barely perceptible smile at the corner of his mouth.

In his eyes, he was quite satisfied with the first probing attack.

When the duel’s outcome emerged, though they hadn’t yet clashed physically, he already had a rough guess based on the cultivator with the surname He’s strength and achievements.

Even those spectating would think along these lines.

This was because the sect behind the cultivator with the surname Min held substantial power across the Seven Southern Countries of Qingzhou, second only to a few organizing forces like the Liyang Sect, marking them as top-tier.

Furthermore, the cultivator with the surname Min had been in the Golden Core Stage for many years; during the early stages, he had gained great fame.

Despite the fact that in recent years, the cultivator with the surname Min seldom appeared publicly or engaged in disputes.

It was undeniable that the cultivator with the surname Min was extremely formidable in combat, with exceptionally rich combat experience.

Conversely, his opponent’s sect in the Seven Southern Countries of Qingzhou was merely mid-level.

More importantly, although the cultivator with the surname He was also in the Mid Stage Golden Core Realm, he had broken through to the medium stage of cultivation less than fifty years ago.

Meanwhile, the strength displayed by the cultivator with the surname He appeared rather ordinary in the eyes of many cultivators.

At least compared to veteran Golden Core Experts like Xu Zuo of the Liyang Sect and Wang Minghong, the cultivator with the surname He seemed relatively ordinary, lacking a standout aspect that commanded attention.

Additionally, when participating in the siege of the Earth Armor Dragon, the cultivator with the surname He did not display remarkable prowess.

He even sustained injuries during that great battle.

Just by this point alone, the gap between them was evident.

For this, the cultivator with the surname He could predict and internally acknowledged the likelihood of defeat.

But due to the rules of the duel, coupled with the honor of his sect and personal pride, retreating without a fight would not only bring ridicule from fellow cultivators but also make lower-level cultivators view him as cowardly, thinking he conceded due to fear of defeat.

Under such circumstances, despite knowing he was not a match.

However, under the watchful eyes of the public, he could only exert himself to the fullest.

If he could somehow achieve victory, that would be wonderful.

But should he be defeated, at least he could leave with his head held high and maintain some accountability to his sect.

With that in mind, despite realizing he was not an opponent, the aura of the cultivator with the surname He did not weaken.

Thus, in the next instant, without delay, the cultivator with the surname He seized the opportunity when the cultivator with the surname Min was distracted and launched another attack.

Quickly, resonant sounds filled the air, accompanied by a surge of intense Sword Qi.

At this moment, witnessing this series of movements, the cultivator with the surname Min was not to be outdone.

Thereupon, the cultivator with the surname Min waved his sleeve, launching another attack that shot towards the cultivator with the surname He.

"Boom..."

Within a blink of an eye, amidst a series of explosive sounds, the two duelists once again clashed.

At this moment, the surrounding cultivators watching the battle were all wide-eyed, focusing fully on the scene.

Especially those lower-level cultivators at the outermost area, many weren’t able to take their eyes off the distant flames and intense fluctuations coming from afar, rendered completely dumbfounded.
