Death Grip
In a valley, Xing Chen suddenly appeared in front of Dan Tai Hong Zhen, startling him at first, then revealing a wary expression.
"Who are you? What do you want by blocking my way?" Dan Tai Hong Zhen looked at Xing Chen with suspicion. Although Xing Chen seemed to only possess the early stage of Earth Soul Realm cultivation, who knew if he had other schemes? Therefore, Dan Tai Hong Zhen did not dare to let his guard down.
As one of the top ten disciples of the Sword Sect, Dan Tai Hong Zhen was absolutely sharp in both cunning and strength; otherwise, the Sword Sect would not have sent him to Radiant City to deliver invitations.
"Sword Sect member?" Xing Chen's gaze was fixed on Dan Tai Hong Zhen. Although he was already certain in his heart, he still asked.
"That's right, I am a member of the Sword Sect." Dan Tai Hong Zhen's eyes became fierce. From the words of the person in front of him, he had already deduced that this person likely harbored enmity against the Sword Sect.
"Since you are from the Sword Sect, then I haven't found the wrong person." Xing Chen nodded, his expression growing colder.
"What exactly are you?" Dan Tai Hong Zhen's gaze became even more vigilant. He did not believe that a mere early-stage Earth Soul Realm cultivator would dare to block him, so his eyes continuously scanned the surroundings warily.
"Don't worry, when you die, I will tell you." A cold smile appeared on Xing Chen's face as he flipped his palm, revealing a Blood Seal in his hand.
"Seven Killing Blood Seal? You are the one who caused Brother Yang and others significant losses back then?" Dan Tai Hong Zhen's expression changed as he vaguely recalled Yang Xingguang's past experiences in the Sun Kingdom.
"When you die, I will tell you." Xing Chen suddenly pushed his palm forward, and in that instant, the Blood Seal transformed into a blood-colored Angry Dragon, rushing towards Dan Tai Hong Zhen.
This place was remote and unlikely to have anyone passing by, so Xing Chen did not need to hold back and could use all his strength to fight.
"With your early-stage Earth Soul Realm strength, you are absolutely no match for me." A hint of killing intent flashed in Dan Tai Hong Zhen's eyes as he coldly stared at Xing Chen. Suddenly, a long sword appeared in his hand.
"Sword Nine Formula, Ling Jue!" Dan Tai Hong Zhen swung the long sword in his hand. An overwhelming momentum instantly radiated from him as he slashed towards the incoming Blood Seal with a flurry of sword shadows.
The Sword Nine Formula consists of Movement Technique, Startling Technique, Shock Technique, Penetrating Technique, Break Technique, Sweeping Technique, Ling Jue, Cracking Technique, and Annihilation Technique.
Sword Nine Formula, as the highest ultimate skill of the Sword Sect, possesses immense power that is not inferior to Tier Martial Arts. However, this requires a complete mastery of the Sword Nine Formula. Currently, what Dan Tai Hongzhen is using, Ling Jue, can only be compared to Earth-Level Primary Martial Technique and is far from the final move of the Sword Nine Formula, Annihilation Technique.
Boom!
The powerful sword energy of Ling Jue exploded upon hitting Blood Seal, instantly filling the area within dozens of meters with overwhelming sword aura. This sword energy was strong enough to easily annihilate a powerful being in the Human Soul Realm.
Step, step, step!
The tremendous impact forced Xing Chen to stagger back several steps. He then looked up at Dan Tai Hongzhen and said slowly, "Mid-stage cultivation of the Soul Realm? I didn't expect you to be stronger than Yang Xingguang."
When Yang Xingguang fought against Xing Chen in the Sun Kingdom, he was at the initial stage of the Soul Realm. Although his combat power was comparable to that of a strong individual in the Half-Step Yang Spirit Realm, his true cultivation was undoubtedly at the initial stage of the Soul Realm. In contrast, Dan Tai Hongzhen's cultivation had reached the mid-stage of the Soul Realm.
"It seems I have overestimated myself. With my current strength, I can easily defeat an ordinary Soul Realm practitioner, but defeating someone from a major power like this is quite difficult," Xing Chen thought bitterly. Since joining the Azure Cloud Gang, he had been consistently defeating stronger opponents and challenging those above his level, which gradually led him to develop an inflated sense of self-worth, believing he could win against those several realms above him.
However, through his recent encounter with Dan Tai Hongzhen, he clearly recognized his own strength. He could easily defeat an ordinary practitioner at the initial stage of the Soul Realm, and even manage to defeat those at the mid-stage with some effort. But against talents emerging from major powers, he could at most defeat someone at the initial stage of the Soul Realm, and it would come at a significant cost.
Against a mid-stage powerhouse like Dan Tai Hongzhen, he could only hope to remain undefeated; defeating him was nearly impossible.
"Hmph, you are indeed that person from Brother Yang. I didn't expect you to dare come to our Sword Kingdom," Dan Tai Hongzhen snorted coldly, then revealed a sinister smile and said, "Since I have encountered you, I will take care of you on behalf of Brother Yang. Prepare yourself!"
"Sword Nine Formula, Split Technique!"
With a swing of his sword, Dan Tai Hongzhen unleashed the eighth technique of the Sword Nine Formula, Split Technique. Instantly, a Giant Sword Phantom appeared in the air and then descended with unmatched might.
Xing Chen's expression changed slightly; if he were to take this move head-on, it would certainly come at a great cost. Unless he used a secret technique from Ninefold Thunder Palm, Thunder Descends Upon the World, he would struggle to withstand it easily. However, doing so would also inflict some injury on himself.
Ninefold Thunder Palm!
In this critical moment, there was no time for Xing Chen to think too much. The Giant Sword Phantom was already descending rapidly. At the same time, Xing Chen struck out with one palm; this strike surged like thunder and created three afterimages in mid-air as it slammed into the Giant Sword Phantom. The impact from the Triple Thunder Strike of the Ninefold Thunder Palm hit directly on target, causing Dan Tai Hongzhen's hand holding the sword to tremble uncontrollably as his long sword nearly slipped from his grasp.
When Xing Chen saw that his Ninefold Thunder Palm could not break through the Giant Sword Phantom, his gaze flickered slightly. He then moved his feet, instantly executing the Northern Dipper Star Steps, leaving a shadow behind while his true self had already retreated dozens of meters away.
Boom!
At that moment, the Giant Sword Phantom slashed down, creating a massive chasm on the ground. The earth trembled, and debris flew everywhere. The shockwave from this strike attracted the attention of many.
"Is someone fighting here?"
"That Giant Sword Phantom seems to be one of the Sword Sect's Sword Nine Formula techniques, the Cracking Strike."
"Given its power, the person using this move must at least be in the Soul Realm. Who is the Sword Sect fighting against?"
Everyone looked curiously towards the location where Xing Chen was battling, and one by one began to activate their movement techniques to rush toward that valley.
"This is bad; the shockwave from this strike will definitely attract others. I need to leave quickly." Xing Chen's gaze flickered slightly. After all, this was not the Sun Kingdom; revealing his identity would bring him no benefits.
"Big Dipper Steps, Shadow Shift." As Xing Chen activated the Northern Dipper Star Steps and was about to leave, Dan Tai Hongzhen struck again with a sword, directly interrupting Xing Chen's movements.
"Want to escape? It's not that easy!" Dan Tai Hongzhen sneered repeatedly. After two exchanges, he had completely seen through Xing Chen's strength; he was merely managing to hold his ground against him. Over time, he would definitely not be able to compete with him. Therefore, how could Dan Tai Hongzhen let Xing Chen go at this moment?
"Starlight Overwhelming!"
Blocked by Dan Tai Hongzhen, Xing Chen's expression changed slightly as he took out the Lonely Star Sword and unleashed Starlight Overwhelming. A strong light instantly spread from the Lonely Star Sword, and Xing Chen seized this opportunity to once again use his movement technique in an attempt to escape.
"Useless; your move has long been seen through by Brother Yang, so it won't work on me." Dan Tai Hongzhen was completely unaffected by Starlight Overwhelming and interrupted Xing Chen's attempt to leave once more.
"You've forced my hand." A cold glint flashed in Xing Chen's eyes. After multiple attempts to escape were thwarted by Dan Tai Hongzhen, anger rose within him. Since you want to fight so badly, then I’ll play with you properly.
Xing Chen looked coldly at Dan Tai Hongzhen, a purple light flashing in his eyes as if thousands of thunderbolts were flickering within. At this moment, Xing Chen had decided to use the secret technique Thunder Descends Upon the World once again.
"I want to see what other tricks you have." Dan Tai Hong Zhen sneered coldly, gathering Vital Energy within him. The long sword in his hand emitted a dazzling light, and the rampant sword energy caused the surrounding space to slightly distort.
This was the final move of the Sword Nine Formula, the Annihilation Technique. Although Dan Tai Hong Zhen could not yet unleash its true power, it was definitely much stronger than the previous Cracking Technique.
"Ninefold Thunder Palm—Thunder Descends Upon the World!" Xing Chen's cold voice slowly echoed out. Suddenly, the sky became turbulent with wind and clouds; in an instant, the originally clear sky turned dark with thick clouds, and lightning continuously tore through the air, wreaking havoc.
Seeing Xing Chen unleash such powerful Martial Arts, Dan Tai Hong Zhen's expression changed slightly. However, at this moment, retreat was absolutely not an option; he could only exert his utmost effort to activate the Annihilation Technique.
"Annihilation Technique—One Sword Annihilation!" Dan Tai Hong Zhen shouted loudly as he swung his long sword fiercely. A force of destruction instantly spread out, and that powerful sword energy made Xing Chen grit his teeth, directly enhancing the power of Thunder Descends Upon the World to Double Thunder.
Xing Chen raised his palm high, and a purple thunderbolt struck down from the sky, hitting Xing Chen's palm. Immediately after, another bolt of lightning struck down onto Xing Chen's palm as well.
"Double Thunder!"
With the two bolts of lightning striking down, Xing Chen's palm suddenly slammed towards Dan Tai Hong Zhen's incoming sword strike. Two bolts of destructive purple thunder erupted from Xing Chen's palm and collided with the sword energy that seemed to possess the might of annihilation.
The purple thunder and the overwhelming sword energy instantly intertwined, sending waves of terrifying fluctuations spreading outwards.
