Death Grip
A suffocating atmosphere instantly spread, and then seven bolts of lightning struck down from the sky with an astonishing force.
All seven bolts hit the Thunder God Sword in Xing Chen's hand, causing the Thunder God Sword to shine brilliantly with purple light, surrounded by thunder, emanating a terrifying wave of energy.
Thunder Descends Upon the World, this move that Xing Chen previously could only unleash with the power of Fourfold Thunder, had now been directly upgraded to sevenfold, resulting in a geometric increase in power.
"Sevenfold Thunder!"
Xing Chen suddenly pointed the Thunder God Sword forward, and immediately, seven bolts of lightning shot out in succession with the might of splitting the earth, resembling seven ancient Thunder Dragons, colliding with the sun and moon that were constantly exchanging positions in the sky.
"Boom!" A tremendous roar erupted, and the entire Training Ground transformed into a realm of thunder. Within the thunder, the light of the sun and moon flickered, yet it was firmly suppressed by the endless lightning.
At this moment, Ling Kaifeng's expression finally turned somewhat grim. The Training Ground was surrounded by an infinite power of lightning, exerting a strong suppressive effect on his strength. In such circumstances, winning became increasingly difficult for him.
"Hmph, don't think that just because of this I, Ling Kaifeng, will be defeated by you. There is no one born in this generation who can defeat me, Ling Kaifeng!"
As he spoke, the killing intent in Ling Kaifeng's eyes grew stronger, and at the same time, the Qixing Jian in his hand began to emit a dazzling light.
"Starfall Sword, Third Style, Reversal of the River!"
With gritted teeth, Ling Kaifeng unleashed the third style of his yet-to-be-mastered Starfall Sword, Reversal of the River.
As he executed this move, the surrounding purple lightning instantly rolled back toward Xing Chen, transforming into a river of lightning that surged forward with a rumbling sound.
"It seems that victory and defeat have been decided. These gathered lightning bolts could probably kill a powerful opponent like Yang Po San Chong. If Xing Chen doesn't use that move he employed against Hua Junchu, he definitely won't be able to withstand it. And once he uses that move, he will surely have no strength left to fight again," Nangong Xingyun remarked as he observed the rolling river of lightning in the arena.
"However, it is indeed no small feat for him to force Wind to this point; he truly lives up to being from Snow Wind Island."
When Song Daohong saw Nangong Xingyun like this, he felt even more at ease and laughed heartily, saying, "Brother Zhao, it seems that this time I will really win! Quickly hand over my Soul-Tracking Needle and the formula for the Soul-Condensing Pill!"
Song Daohong laughed triumphantly, feeling a sense of relief as all his previous frustrations were swept away in that moment.
He seemed to envision himself reclaiming the Soul-Tracking Needle and obtaining the Zhao Family's Soul-Condensing Pill.
However, Zhao Yuanlong showed no intention of handing over these two items, only slowly saying, "The outcome has not yet been truly determined; we still do not know how it will turn out. Song Brother, do not celebrate too early."
"Truly, one does not give up until they reach the Yellow River, and one does not shed tears until they see the coffin. So what if I wait a little longer?" Song Daohong huffed lightly.
On the other side, although the thunder rolled back, there was no sign of tension or panic on Xing Chen's face. Then, a flash of purplish-red light enveloped him as a purplish-red shield rose up around him; it was the Thunderfire Divine Shield.
This Thunderfire Divine Shield, when he was still at the Earth Soul Realm Pinnacle, could withstand attacks from strong opponents like Yang Po Er Chong. Now that he had advanced to the Half-Step Yang Spirit Realm, it would be no problem for the Thunderfire Divine Shield to withstand attacks from a Yang Po Fourfold strong opponent.
Of course, all of this depended on Xing Chen having enough Vital Energy to support the defense of the Thunderfire Divine Shield. Therefore, almost as soon as the shield appeared, he swallowed several pills to restore his Vital Energy, which were provided by the Zhao Family.
"What... what is this? Does he really think he can block Ling Kaifeng's powerful attack with just this?"
"Is this guy crazy? How could something like this possibly withstand Ling Kaifeng's attack? Is he trying to court death?"
"It would be better if he died; if he dies, our Ling Shixiong wins. Besides, even if he used other methods, there's no way he could withstand Ling Shixiong's attack."
The crowd below began to discuss among themselves, but almost no one had any faith in Xing Chen. Everyone believed that he was undoubtedly facing certain death at that moment.
At that moment, the rolling thunder surged forward with an endless sound of thunderclaps and instantly struck against the Thunderfire Divine Shield. In an instant, Xing Chen's figure was engulfed in purple lightning.
Thunder rumbled around, even the Training Ground showed signs of cracks from the intense Thunderous Power.
"Under such impact, I can't believe you won't die!" Ling Kaifeng murmured as he looked at the area filled with thunder.
However, he was destined to be disappointed. Under the protection of the Thunderfire Divine Shield, Xing Chen could not be easily killed by him. Although Xing Chen was experiencing a severe depletion of Vital Energy at that moment, he was replenishing it with pills, and there were no signs of the Thunderfire Divine Shield breaking.
After a while, as the thunder dissipated, Xing Chen reappeared before everyone. Aside from slightly rapid breathing, there were no signs of injury on him, which left everyone in shock.
"How is this possible? He actually blocked Ling Kaifeng's attack? How did he do it?"
"This is going against the rhythm! Such a powerful attack from Ling Kaifeng couldn't kill him; it seems this person might really be able to defeat Ling Kaifeng."
"Nonsense, Ling Shixiong cannot possibly lose..."
At this moment, the debate among the spectators grew more intense. Even Nangong Xingyun and others in the viewing platform had their pupils constrict. Just moments ago, they didn't believe Xing Chen could withstand this round of attacks. Unexpectedly, not only did Xing Chen endure it, but he also came out unscathed.
"He must have some defensive treasure. This child is likely from a major force in Snow Wind Island; otherwise, he wouldn't possess such an extraordinary treasure," Nangong Xingyun thought to himself as his gaze flickered.
"Could it be that Ling Kaifeng will really lose? No way... No way... With Ling Kaifeng's strength, how could he possibly lose to this child?"
At this moment, Song Daohong's heart also began to waver. He no longer dared to affirm that Ling Kaifeng would win. However, as soon as this thought appeared, he shook his head to dispel it. At the same time, he silently prayed that Ling Kaifeng must win this battle; otherwise, he would have to hand over twenty Elemental Stone Veins to the Zhao Family.
"Song Family Manor, I told you not to rejoice too early. Look at Xing Chen; isn't he still standing there just fine?" Zhao Yuanlong said with a smile as he noticed Song Daohong's expression darkening.
"Zhao Yuanlong, don't get too smug over there. Don't forget that Ling Kaifeng hasn't used his final trump card yet—his Skybreaking Fan has not been used at all. Once Ling Kaifeng uses the Skybreaking Fan, that child will definitely die a terrible death," Song Daohong said through gritted teeth as he glared at Zhao Yuanlong.
"Ha ha, let's wait and see how it turns out. It's not up to us who wins; we need to see their performance," Zhao Yuanlong said with a laugh.
On the Training Ground, Ling Kaifeng looked at Xing Chen with disbelief. He simply could not believe that Xing Chen had survived such a powerful attack.
This was something that a Half-Step Yang Spirit Realm expert should not be able to achieve, especially surviving unscathed. Even a Yang Po San Chong expert would likely be unable to do this.
"Are you surprised? Well, there's really nothing to be surprised about. Let me tell you, my Thunderfire Divine Shield can withstand even an attack from a Yang Po Fourfold Peak expert, let alone your attack."
Xing Chen said coldly, aiming to undermine Ling Kaifeng's confidence and psychologically overpower him first. As the ancient saying goes, to defeat the enemy without fighting is the true way of a king. This refers to a psychological offensive; as long as he could break the opponent's confidence, there would be no need for further combat—his opponent would retreat on their own.
"I don't believe you can really withstand an attack from a Yang Po Fourfold Peak expert. Even if you could, the consumption of your Vital Energy would be enormous. Under those circumstances, you definitely wouldn't be able to withstand many hits."
Ling Kaifeng was not so easily deceived; it was indeed quite difficult for Xing Chen to break his confidence. He quickly realized the weakness behind Xing Chen's strong defense.
"Since that's the case, let's see the truth in action!" A cold glint flashed in Xing Chen's eyes as his Thunder God Sword vanished. At the same time, a flash of blood light appeared, and a blood-red longsword appeared in his hand.
It was the Earth Grade Top-Tier Divine Weapon, Slaying God Sword. With the appearance of the Slaying God Sword, an aura of slaughter instantly spread out. At that moment, Xing Chen seemed to transform into a Killing God, with the lives and deaths of all beings at his command.
"One Sword to Slay the God!" Xing Chen said lightly as he suddenly slashed forward with the Slaying God Sword. A blood-colored sword energy filled with endless killing intent shot out from the sword, slicing toward Ling Kaifeng with a sound of breaking air.
"Dang!" Ling Kaifeng crossed his sword in front of him, using the Qixing Jian as a shield to block this strike. However, he was still pushed back by the immense force, blood spilling from his mouth.
Moreover, he was about to retreat outside the Training Ground. At that critical moment, Ling Kaifeng thrust his longsword into the ground, halting his backward momentum. Meanwhile, with a swift motion of his other hand, a folding fan appeared—it was the Skybreaking Fan.
"It's the Skybreaking Fan! Ling Kaifeng is finally going to use the Skybreaking Fan." Onlookers from Fire Sect, including Fireman, had their eyes gleam with anticipation. Everyone on Nebula Island knew that Ling Kaifeng's Skybreaking Fan was his most powerful trump card, yet no one had truly witnessed its power before.
Those who had seen its true might were all dead beneath its force. Now that there was an opportunity to see Ling Kaifeng use the Skybreaking Fan, Fireman certainly would not miss this chance to observe.
"To be able to force Ling Kaifeng to this extent, this child is indeed impressive. However, since Ling Kaifeng has activated the Skybreaking Fan, this battle should come to an end."
Beside him, Song Xingwen also had a flicker of light in his eyes. Although he had a good relationship with Ling Kaifeng, he had never seen Ling Kaifeng use the Skybreaking Fan. However, he deeply understood the terrifying power of the Skybreaking Fan.
"Void Breaking Strike!" At this moment, Ling Kaifeng gritted his teeth and activated the Skybreaking Fan. Instantly, a brilliant light erupted from the fan, and a tremendous force spread out in an instant. Then, Ling Kaifeng suddenly hurled the folding fan forward, and the Skybreaking Fan shot towards Xing Chen.
"Useless, you cannot break my defense," Xing Chen said calmly as the Thunderfire Divine Shield rose again around him. At that moment, the Skybreaking Fan whistled violently as it approached him.
Just as the Skybreaking Fan was about to make contact with the Thunderfire Divine Shield, a silver light suddenly flashed across it. Then, the Skybreaking Fan vanished into thin air and reappeared inside the Thunderfire Divine Shield.
Seeing that the fan had actually breached the defense of the Thunderfire Divine Shield, Xing Chen's pupils constricted sharply, revealing a look of shock.
"This Skybreaking Fan actually contains spatial power!"
