War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens - Chapter 1696
Chapter 1696: Battle
Under the watchful eyes of the others, Duan Ling Tian and Xu Jing stood on opposite sides of each other.
Although there were many people on the Nimble Chess Set, they were extremely quiet. Everybody was looking at Duan Ling Tian and Xu Jing with utmost concentration.
Although they already knew what the outcome of the battle would be, deep in their hearts, they still hoped for a miracle. After all, it would make the show more exciting if a miracle happened. After all, if Xu Jing killed Li Feng just as they had expected, they would not be surprised at all.
Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang exchanged glances with each other and shook their heads tacitly before they sighed.
They felt helpless over Li Feng’s rashness.
Although they wished there was something they could do, they could not interfere at all since this was Li Feng’s own choice.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian, who was using the name Li Feng, stared coldly at Xu Jing. Since Xu Jing had asked him to make a move first, he, naturally, would not decline.
At this moment, the Sun True Origin that rose up from Duan Ling Tian’s body was like a dazzling sun. It instantly spread all over the place, causing many people to squint their eyes.
“What kind of attribute does Li Feng’s True Origin have? Why does it feel so peculiar?”
“That’s right! This is my first time seeing such a True Origin as well!”
When Duan Ling Tian’s True Origin surged out of his body, many people began to discuss among themselves.
Soon after, under their watchful eyes, Duan Ling Tian was fully enveloped by a layer of golden light. The golden light that was akin to the sun continued to expand before it finally settled into the form a gigantic ball of light that was 100 meters wide in diameter.
“His Territory really doesn’t allow anybody to see inside.” Upon seeing this, many people smiled wryly.
Everybody present on the scene, apart from Xu Jing and the hunchback young man who had followed him here, had seen Duan Ling Tian’s Territory earlier. Although they were not greatly shocked, they were still somewhat surprised.
This was their first time seeing such a Territory after all.
Soon after, someone chimed in, “Somehow, I’m certain Li Feng’s Territory has something to do with swords.”
“Isn’t that obvious? When Li Feng and Xu Can fought earlier, he had consolidated his Territory into a golden sword to kill Xu Can,” someone else said.
Meanwhile, Xu Jing could not help but feel astonished when he saw Duan Ling Tian’s Territory hanging in the sky like a dazzling sun.
The Territory before him that looked like a dazzling sun caused him to be unable to see what was going on inside. The unknown was the scariest thing.
Due to this reason, although Xu Jing was now a Devil Cultivator at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage, he stopped looking down on Duan Ling Tian’s Territory and faced it with a solemn expression.
The hunchback young man who followed Xu Jing here was also bewildered by Duan Ling Tian’s Territory. It was his first time seeing such a peculiar Territory after all!
However, the moment he thought of his Young Mansion Master’s current strength, he relaxed again. A mocking smile appeared on his face as he thought to himself, ‘It’s useless even if your Territory’s special. You’re destined to die in Young Mansion Master’s hands!’
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
As a series of loud explosions reverberated in the air, Duan Ling Tian who was covered in a layer of golden light finally made his move. The moment he moved, his 10,000 Swords Territory moved as well.
When the Territory moved, it encountered a powerful resistance. Due to the friction caused by the force of resistance, a loud noise sounded in the air.
When the True Origin on Xu Jing’s body whirled and the Devil Qi surged up to the sky, the huge golden ball of light that enveloped Duan Ling Tian in it — which was the 10,000 Sword Territory that was consolidated from the Sun True Origin — also shrank drastically.
In just a blink of an eye, Duan Ling Tian’s figure appeared before everyone’s eyes again.
During this process, apart from Ren Zhong, Liu Hong Guang, and Xu Cen, nobody else saw this at all.
Ren Zhong and the other two could see as Duan Ling Tian’s Territory was rapidly shrinking, the 10,000 Swords that was whizzing inside had also gradually fused into one. In the end, it appeared in his hand in the form of a three-foot-long blade that was shining splendidly with a golden light.
Although the three-foot-long blade in his hand was not a real sword, the Sword Qi it emitted was extremely terrifying.
Under the watchful eyes of the others, Duan Ling Tian wielded the golden three-foot-long blade. His entire being emitted Sword Qi as he stood there.
‘Sword Cultivator!’ At this moment, many people’s hearts jolted as this thought appeared in their minds. Everyone was almost certain Duan Ling Tian was a Sword Cultivator.
“The sword in his hand seems to be consolidated from his Territory… The terrifying Sword Qi it’s emitting is even scarier than the Yin Yang Two Qis Swords that was transformed by Jing Xu Zi’s Territory,” many people who were more perceptive exclaimed in shock.
“That’s right! There’s indeed a huge gap between Jing Xu Zi’s Yin Yang Two Qis Swords and the sword in his hand,” many people chimed in.
This was because the golden three-foot-long blade in Duan Ling Tian’s hand also contained the profundity of the second stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword, the Sword Shadowed Heart.
If one paid closer attention to it, one could faintly see the translucent shadows of swords revolving around the surroundings of the golden sword in Duan Ling Tian’s hands.
These sword shadows only appeared after Duan Ling Tian had cast the Sword Shadowed Heart, the second stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword.
At this moment, Xu Jing had also solidified his Territory. He snorted as he mocked Duan Ling Tian. “Hurmph! So what if he’s a Sword Cultivator? He’s still too weak to withstand a single blow from me!”
However, Duan Ling Tian did not respond to him. To be more precise, Duan Ling Tian did not respond to him verbally. He responded with the sword in his hand that was shining dazzlingly like the sun.
Whoosh!
The sword slashed across the sky along with Duan Ling Tian. It gave off a peculiar feeling. It was as though Duan Ling Tian had transformed into a sword himself as he charged toward Xu Jing with a bellow.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Faced with this menacing Duan Ling Tian, Xu Jing did not dare to be careless as well. With a flick of his hands, his Typhoon Territory also moved out at this moment. Soon after, it twisted and turned into a huge tornado.
The Devil Qi surged up powerfully in the tornado. Although it was not as powerful as when he cast it to kill the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi, there was only a slight difference in the strength.
Under the watchful eyes of the others, Duan Ling Tian and his sword rushed into the tornado.
Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! Gasp!
The crowd gasped in unison as they stared pitifully at the figure who had rushed into the tornado.
However, they were given a huge shock soon after.
This was because they did not see any blood mist that they had come to expect. “This Li Feng actually survives after rushing into the tornado that Xu Jing transformed using his Territory?”
“He’s indeed not a simple person! I think Li Feng is most likely a very rare outstanding powerhouse among the Mastery Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivators.”
“Exactly! However, accepting Xu Jing’s challenge is going to be the biggest mistake of his life. It’ll definitely cause him to lose his life.”
“He’s just too rash! Otherwise, with his innate talent, let alone a fourth-rate force, even a quasi third-rate force would fight to the end to accept him as a disciple.”
Many people sighed, feeling that Duan Ling Tian had been too rash in accepting Xu Jing’s challenge.
