Death Grip
Nangong Xingyun's expression changed unpredictably. He absolutely could not hand over Ling Kaifeng, and if he did not give up Ling Kaifeng, he would have to take action against Xing Chen, but those people would obstruct him. After hesitating for a while, Nangong Xingyun ultimately gave up on the idea of taking action.
"Alright, this time we can consider the Zhao Family victorious. However, Xing Chen is no longer qualified to participate in the subsequent matches. The first and second places will have to be chosen between Song Xingwen and Fireman." Nangong Xingyun nodded with a dark expression and returned to the stands.
Zhao Yuanlong and the others breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing him finally compromise. After all, Nangong Xingyun was a strong figure from Yang Po Sevenfold; if it came to a fight, even if the three of them joined forces, they would definitely suffer heavy losses.
Now that Nangong Xingyun could compromise, it was the best outcome.
"No problem, our Zhao Family achieving third place this time is already quite good. I don't expect to advance further," Zhao Yuanlong said calmly. The reason he was so agreeable was obvious; he had just won a bet against Song Daohong. Song Daohong lost twenty Elemental Stone Veins to their Zhao Family. As long as they received these Elemental Stone Veins, their Zhao Family would not be at a disadvantage by finishing third instead of second.
Moreover, the one who should feel most frustrated should be Nangong Xingyun. Their Nebula Gate had directly fallen from first place to last place, and the first within the gate, Ling Kaifeng, had consumed a Bloodthirsty Frenzy Pill, essentially rendering him useless. Such a blow was significant for Nebula Gate.
"In the end, I broke through too early and couldn't kill Song Xingwen," Xing Chen sighed inwardly as he walked off the Training Ground.
The original agreement with the Zhao Family was that he would kill or incapacitate Song Xingwen, after which the Zhao Family would give him two more bottles of Soul-Condensing Pill. Now that he had not accomplished this, Xing Chen naturally felt embarrassed to ask the Zhao Family for Soul-Condensing Pills.
However, he did not leave empty-handed; this time he achieved third place and could obtain an Earth-Level Martial Art. Moreover, the Zhao Family still owed him half a bottle of Soul-Condensing Pill!
Most importantly, he had broken through to Yang Spirit Realm thanks to this battle. Originally, according to his estimation, breaking through to Yang Spirit Realm would take some time. However, under immense pressure during this battle, he broke through directly—this was completely unexpected joy.
"With my current strength, I am no longer afraid of Yang Po San Chong experts. Even against Yang Po Fourfold, I might have a chance in battle. The Thunderfire Pearl's defense can definitely withstand attacks from Yang Po Fivefold experts," Xing Chen assessed his strength inwardly.
Although his current power was already quite formidable, Xing Chen was not entirely satisfied. After all, the Eastern Region was currently facing great calamity; he needed to seize every moment to improve his cultivation and then eradicate the Demon Sect's influence in the Eastern Region.
According to Xing Chen's estimation, in order to have the ability to annihilate the Demon Sect, he needed to reach at least the third realm of Glimpse of Fate—Glimpse of Objects or even Gaze into Fate—otherwise it would be impossible to contend with the Demon Sect.
At this moment, Song Xingwen and Fireman had already stepped onto the Training Ground. Now that both Xing Chen and Ling Kaifeng had lost their qualifications to compete, first and second places would naturally be chosen between them.
"Fire Brother, I didn't expect it would come down to us competing for first and second place in the end. This result is truly surprising!" Song Xingwen said lightly as he looked at Fireman across from him.
"Song Brother is absolutely right. However, since it’s just the two of us left now, I won’t hold back any longer." As Fireman spoke, it seemed as if flames were dancing in his eyes.
"This is exactly what I was thinking. Fire Brother, come on, let’s see who is stronger between us." Song Xingwen said, suddenly extending his hands. Accompanied by the sound of Dragon Roar and Tiger Howl, the surrounding space trembled slightly, and a giant hand resembling an Ancient Deity suddenly reached out from the void, pressing down.
In an instant, the entire sky darkened, and a thunderous roar echoed continuously as that massive hand descended with overwhelming force.
"Li Huo Divine Sword, Divine Flame Tide!"
The light in Fireman's eyes flickered slightly, and then a long sword radiating red light appeared in his hand. Following this, Fireman swung it in mid-air, unleashing an endless wave of flames.
It felt as if even the heavens would be burned to ashes; that intense heat quickly enveloped the area, causing even Xing Chen, who had already broken through to the Yang Spirit Realm, to change his expression slightly.
Xing Chen looked at the flames in the sky with a hint of surprise. However, he was not astonished by the power of this move but rather by the sheer intensity of those flames. The flames in the air were not ordinary; they were a type of divine flame with immense power. Although Xing Chen did not know its name, he could sense that this fire was definitely on par with the thunderfire in his Thunderfire Pearl.
It should be noted that the thunderfire in his Thunderfire Pearl is a divine flame from the Eastern Region, known as Thunderfire Divine Flame. The name Thunderfire Deity is derived from this Thunderfire Divine Flame.
In the ranking of divine flames in the Eastern Region, while Thunderfire Divine Flame may not be among the top, it is undoubtedly one of the strongest flames currently in existence. The more powerful divine flames that surpass it have only appeared in ancient times; such flames can no longer be found in today’s Eastern Region.
Boom!
The endless flames collided with Song Xingwen's World-Destruction Hand, instantly creating a fiery storm in the air, intensifying the feeling of heat.
"Is that really Li Fire Divine Flame? I didn’t expect you to obtain something like this." Song Xingwen said, his expression changing slightly as he looked at the flames in the air. The Li Fire Divine Flame ranks among the top hundred divine flames in the sea region; its power is certainly not something that can be countered by ordinary attacks.
"That’s right, it is indeed Li Fire Divine Flame!" Fireman nodded in acknowledgment.
"It is said that Li Fire Divine Flame is controlled by Li Huo Shen Jun. This divine flame has already merged with Li Huo Shen Jun's Li Huo Divine Sword. Could it be that the sword in your hand is... Li Huo Divine Sword?" Song Xingwen looked at the long sword in Fireman's hand, his pupils narrowing.
Li Huo Shen Jun was a figure from a thousand years ago who reached the peak of the Peak of Fate Observation Realm. He had long since passed away many years ago. Who would have thought that the Li Fire Divine Flame and the Li Huo Divine Sword, which he once controlled, would reappear in this world?
"Since you've already figured it out, do you still plan to continue competing? You cannot defeat me, who possesses the Li Huo Divine Sword," Fireman said to Song Xingwen calmly.
"Although the Li Huo Divine Sword is powerful, with your cultivation level, you definitely cannot use it for long. I would like to see, Fire Brother, how many more times you can attack," Song Xingwen replied after a moment of silence, suddenly laughing.
"This Song Xingwen is quite clever. Fireman's Li Huo Divine Sword must be similar to my Thunderfire Pearl. When I was at the Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm, I could only unleash the Thunderfire Pearl's attack three times at most. Fireman probably can't be much stronger than that," Xing Chen thought to himself as he watched the battle unfold.
"To be honest, I can unleash one more attack, but this one will be enough for me to win," Fireman said as the Li Huo Divine Sword in his hand flickered with light, and he slowly spoke.
"Then I really want to experience just how powerful this strike from you, Fire Brother, can be." Song Xingwen's gaze suddenly became sharp; he was confident that even if Fireman's attack reached the level of Xing Chen's earlier strike, he could withstand it.
And afterwards, Fireman would definitely be exhausted, and victory would still belong to him, Song Xingwen.
"Since that's the case, prepare yourself."
Fireman's eyes flickered with flames, and then his body actually floated into the air. At that moment, the Li Huo Divine Sword in his hand emitted a blinding crimson light that was hard to look at directly.
"Southern Fire Vermilion Bird, appear! Ninety Earth Gods and Demons, tremble!"
As the light from the Li Huo Divine Sword grew even more dazzling, an endless sea of flames inexplicably surged around them, instantly transforming the entire Training Ground into a vast Fire Sea.
Suddenly, amidst this Fire Sea, a bird's cry echoed out. A slender bird with long feathers and engulfed in flames—the Fire Red Vermilion Bird—appeared in the air.
The blazing flames on the Vermilion Bird seemed to burn even the void itself. As it spread its wings wide, endless fire gathered towards it. Its sharp gaze then turned towards Song Xingwen below.
"This is the legendary divine beast Vermilion Bird..." Xing Chen murmured as he looked at the enormous flaming bird in the sky.
"It’s actually the divine beast Vermilion Bird! How could Fireman possibly perform such a technique with his strength?" Onlookers like Song Daohong felt their faces turn pale as they sensed the overwhelming power radiating from the Vermilion Bird.
Although this Vermilion Bird is merely a form without substance, its power cannot be underestimated. Even a strong individual from the Sun Soul Threefold Peak would pay a heavy price to block this attack.
"The divine beast Vermilion Bird. It seems that the Fire Sect Master has put in a lot of effort to help the Fireman master this move!" Nangong Xingyun glanced at the Vermilion Bird in the sky and coldly remarked.
"Indeed, a lot of effort has been spent, but the results are impressive. At least securing first place this time is guaranteed," Huo Mingqing replied lightly, his gaze fixed intently on the Fireman in the arena.
"Ha!" At that moment, the Fireman shouted loudly, and with a swift motion, his long sword slashed down. The divine beast Vermilion Bird let out a clear cry, then spread its wings wide, engulfed in flames, and charged toward Song Xingwen below.
"World-Destruction Hand!" Song Xingwen's expression darkened as he unleashed the World-Destruction Hand once more. This technique is the strongest martial art he possesses, and facing such a powerful attack, he could only use it to defend himself.
A massive hand suddenly emerged from the void, reaching for the divine beast Vermilion Bird. The hand resembled that of a deity, capable of overwhelming the heavens. As soon as it appeared, it grasped toward the neck of the Vermilion Bird.
"Chirp!" The Vermilion Bird cried out again, then waved its wings, unleashing an endless surge of flames that collided with the World-Destruction Hand.
