Death Grip
Under the powerful electric shock, even a strong individual like Ling Guanyu, who had reached the Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm, was instantly charred all over, letting out a painful scream.
Meanwhile, on the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword, the purple light became increasingly intense, with thick bolts of lightning striking down on Ling Guanyu's body like whips.
After a few moments, the lightning on the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword flickered slightly, and the brilliant purple light on its blade gradually faded away, while Ling Guanyu's figure completely vanished into the Thunder Pool.
On the other side, Yang Yu's expression changed drastically upon seeing this situation, and he hurriedly activated his movement technique to leave the Thunder Pool.
"Yan Zongzhu, you must provide an explanation for this. Why did the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword suddenly unleash such terrifying power and kill Ling Guanyu?"
Yang Yu looked at Yan Haoxuan with a grim expression, believing that if this matter was not clarified, everyone would certainly not continue with the competition. After all, if it were a life-and-death battle, it would be better to directly seize the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword!
"Yes! Yan Zongzhu, what exactly is going on? You must give us all an explanation!"
"That's right. Why did the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword kill and devour someone?"
"Yan Zongzhu, are you hiding something from us?"
In an instant, everyone began to question Yan Haoxuan. Although Xing Chen remained silent, his mind was racing as he contemplated the situation.
"Everyone, please calm down. Allow me to explain," Yan Haoxuan said as he stepped forward upon seeing the crowd getting agitated and the situation threatening to spiral out of control.
"This incident was absolutely an accident. You all know that the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword has been forged by countless bolts of lightning over hundreds of years. Additionally, our sword sect has infused it with numerous rare treasures before it took shape."
"The lightning contained within the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword is indeed terrifying due to being hammered by countless bolts for so long. Although I am deeply saddened by the death of Alliance Leader Ling Guanyu, this was indeed just an accident."
"It was because he collided with the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword that it triggered the terrifying lightning within it, leading to his demise."
Yan Haoxuan explained with a pained expression, but everyone knew it was just an act.
Especially the members of the Silver Dragon Alliance, who were furious to see their leader dead. However, they realized they were deep in enemy territory, and with the death of their leader, there were no experts from the Gaze of Fate left in the alliance. No matter how angry they felt, they could only suppress it.
Otherwise, if they pushed Yan Haoxuan too hard, he might very well turn against them.
"What a ruthless method. It seems he intends to use a human sacrifice for his sword, and the sacrifice is an unparalleled expert from the Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm."
Xing Chen had figured out Yan Haoxuan's intentions, but given the current situation, even if he understood, he absolutely could not reveal himself. Otherwise, he would surely be seen as a thorn in Yan Haoxuan's side and eliminated at the first opportunity.
"If that's the case, then the real culprit behind this incident is Yang Yu. If he hadn't directed Ling Guanyu towards the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword, Ling Guanyu wouldn't have died!" Xun Hongyi seized the opportunity to attack.
"Xun Hongyi, what do you mean by that?" Yang Yu glared angrily at Xun Hongyi.
"Hey, don't you understand what I mean?" Xun Hongyi said with a mocking smile, clearly using this moment to retaliate against Yang Yu.
As for Ling Guanyu's death, Xun Hongyi felt no sorrow at all. Although Ling Guanyu was invited by him and they had a good relationship, now that Ling Guanyu was dead, their relationship had naturally dissipated into thin air.
"Alright, Xun Hongyi, you're asking for death!" Yang Yu's eyes flashed with killing intent as he stepped closer to Xun Hongyi.
"Both of you... this is not the time for you to fight. After all, the issue of the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword's ownership has not been resolved yet. If there are no objections from anyone, we can continue with the competition for the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword."
Just as Xun Hongyi and Yang Yu were about to clash, Yan Haoxuan quickly intervened. This was a crucial moment; his plan must not be disrupted by these two.
"Since everything is clear now, we naturally have no objections. I will take this round!" At that moment, the masked Snow Country Ruler, Xue Hongyu, spoke in a chilling voice and then swiftly appeared in the Thunder Pool.
"Yan Zongzhu, may I choose my opponent?" Xue Hongyu's icy voice reached everyone's ears.
"Snow Country Lord, that is certainly allowed. However, it requires the other party's consent. If they do not agree, then we will have to see who is willing to compete with you."
Yan Haoxuan pondered for a moment before smiling and saying,
"The person I want to challenge is you! If you have the guts, let's fight to the death!" Xue Hongyu pointed at Xing Chen, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he gritted his teeth.
Xing Chen looked at the masked Xue Hongyu and scoffed, "What? Can't beat my master, so you want to take it out on me?"
Seeing Xing Chen's mocking smile, Xue Hongyu's killing intent intensified, his teeth grinding audibly.
"However, I'm not saying I can't give you this opportunity. As long as you dare to take off the mask on your face, what's wrong with having a match with you?"
Xing Chen spoke calmly, confident that Xue Hongyu would never dare to remove his mask.
"You bastard!" Xue Hongyu's eyes were filled with rage, but just as Xing Chen thought, he indeed did not dare to take off the mask. After all, the four big characters on his face were a lifelong shame; how could he possibly remove it in front of so many people?
"Damn it, are you two done? Stop wasting time. Since he doesn't dare to step up, let me have some fun with you!"
At that moment, a rough voice rang out, and a figure flashed into view right in front of Xue Hongyu.
This person was named Duan Xingyan. He did not belong to any faction but was a powerful figure at the Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm, a dominant presence in the entire Eastern Region.
"Duan Xingyan, this is what you asked for!" A flash of killing intent appeared in Xue Hongyu's eyes. The anger that had just been provoked by Xing Chen erupted instantly and was all directed at Duan Xingyan.
A crystal longsword appeared in Xue Hongyu's hand, and an overwhelming chill emanated from it, causing even the thunder in the Thunder Pool to show signs of freezing.
"Frozen Ground!"
With a loud shout from Xue Hongyu, cold light radiated from the longsword. A magnificent sword light immediately slashed toward Duan Xingyan. This sword was dazzling like fireworks and like a shooting star cutting through the night sky—brief yet beautiful—but the chilling sword energy and the radiant cold light were unforgettable.
"Destruction Ground!"
Upon seeing the sword light approaching, Duan Xingyan's expression changed slightly as he suddenly made his move. A wave of demonic energy erupted from him, exuding a massive aura akin to mountains and seas, with each surge capable of crushing a Yang Po Sixth Level expert.
Countless auras merged together, and even fellow Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm experts were unwilling to clash head-on with its sharpness.
Duan Xingyan's momentum surged to its peak in an instant, just as Xue Hongyu's sword light arrived, and the two forces collided fiercely.
After a tremendous roar, the already violent thunder in the Thunder Pool became even more chaotic, while Xue Hongyu and Duan Xingyan both staggered back a few steps.
In this confrontation, both were nearly evenly matched, with neither gaining the upper hand.
"What incredible strength! Although I am not afraid to confront them directly now, my defense ultimately cannot compare to theirs, which puts me at a disadvantage," Xing Chen thought, his gaze flickering. His resolve not to participate in the battle grew stronger; it would be best if Yun Qing could arrive at the last moment.
If Yun Qing couldn't make it in time, then Xing Chen would have no choice but to give up on the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword. At the same time, he had to guard against Yan Haoxuan. He believed in his judgment that Yan Haoxuan would definitely make a move against everyone in the end.
Whether he could escape then would depend entirely on luck.
"Snowflake Dance!"
After stabilizing her stance, Xue Hongyu swung her long sword again. Blue crystalline snowflakes began to fall gently from the air. Each of these snowflakes contained boundless killing intent and possessed the power to slay Yang Spirit Realm experts.
As Xue Hongyu waved her long sword, countless snowflakes instantly gathered together, coalescing in mid-air into a translucent blue giant sword. The entire Thunder Pool was enveloped by a layer of thin ice at that moment.
"Slash!"
With killing intent flashing in her eyes and accompanied by an endless chill and cold murderous aura, Xue Hongyu struck down fiercely with her sword.
Duan Xingyan looked at this powerful attack, his expression changing slightly. However, as a Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm expert, he quickly formed seals with both hands, unleashing terrifying energy from his palms.
Earth-Level Top Martial Arts—Zhenhai Seal!
It is rumored that the Zhenhai Seal, once cultivated to perfection, can rival the powerful Tier Martial Arts, capable of suppressing all ocean storms and deep-sea behemoths.
As Duan Xingyan struck out with a palm, endless ocean storms surged forth, instantly colliding with the giant sword that fell from the sky.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the midst of the infinite storm, the massive ice sword seemed to transform into a solitary boat, struggling for survival within the tempest.
"Frost Snow Absolute Kill!"
Xue Hongyu changed the momentum of her sword, her entire being seemingly merging with the sword in her hand. She then broke through the layers of storm barriers and fiercely stabbed towards Duan Xingyan.
"Absolute Finger!"
Duan Xingyan also altered his hand seal, pointing forward. As the massive handprint vanished, a finger appeared out of thin air, flickering and transforming like a sharp Divine Weapon, colliding with the long sword in Xue Hongyu's hand.
