Chapter 384: Intense Battle!
“Bang bang…”
The thunderous sound of energy echoed, intense and powerful, while gusts of wind blasted across the arena, overturning the ground beneath.
In the midst of the arena, two figures clashed, relying solely on the raw power of their bodies in this fierce duel.
Su Yi utilized techniques from the Divine Demonic Ancient Verse. The Mighty Desolate Verse is known for its emphasis on “strength,” capable of shattering any law with a single surge of force. Meanwhile, the Heavenly Tiger Art focuses on “momentum,” crushing all obstacles with its overwhelming power, smashing everything in its path.
As for the “Demonic Spirit Truth Interpretation,” it summons the strength of countless beasts. However, since this offensive technique involves soul attacks, Su Yi refrained from fully unleashing the beasts’ potential.
Additionally, the “Demonic Spirit Truth Interpretation” is the most intricate technique, and Su Yi has not yet mastered it completely.
Su Yi struck with immense power and a regal presence.
In contrast, Jian Shiyi’s assault was more agile, fast as lightning, and laced with cunning, trying to outmaneuver Su Yi with his speed and craft.
Despite the speed and agility of Jian Shiyi, Su Yi’s Hundred Transformations Step technique kept him at a disadvantage, making it impossible for Jian Shiyi to gain the upper hand.
This realization shook Jian Shiyi to his core. His eyes, now filled with astonishment, reflected his disbelief as the battle escalated.
“Such power! Is he truly just an outer disciple?”
Jian Shiyi’s heart raced with increasing astonishment. Ranked fifteenth in the Sword Tower, he had already exchanged several dozen moves, yet he couldn’t even gain a single advantage. It left him in a state of shock.
Is this disciple truly from the outer ranks?
“Yunyin Heaven-defying Fist!”
Jian Shiyi gathered Earth-attribute vitality, rapidly forming hand seals with precision. Waves of faint black Earth-attribute vitality surged forward, merging into a sequence of glowing fist seals.
“Boom!”
The fist-shaped seals pulsed with energy, their momentum like falling meteorites, hitting Su Yi head-on and enveloping him entirely.
“Fire Shadow Fist!” Su Yi shouted lowly, charging forward. Surging fire attribute energy burst from his body. A ferocious blast emanated from his fist, enveloped in blinding flames. It created a violent explosion that rippled through the vacuum before him.
The fiery force surrounding Su Yi’s fist resembled overlapping shadows, crashing down like a torrent, shattering the very fabric of space.
A shockwave of heat surged, fiercely blocking Jian Shiyi’s attacks.
Jian Shiyi’s face constantly shifted, showing signs of struggle.
In the distance, several disciples from the Court of Justice were gradually losing their stern expressions, replaced by a growing sense of solemnity.
“Boom!”
Jian Shiyi’s aura suddenly erupted once more. His previously hidden energy exploded, sweeping across the square with a powerful wave, causing a resounding boom to echo through the air.
“Yuan Spirit Realm, fourth grade!”
The onlookers, including several stewards, exchanged worried glances. Jian Shiyi had ascended to the fourth grade of the Yuan Spirit Realm.
“Looks like the rankings in the Sword Tower might shift!”
“With the Grand Swordsmanship Competition approaching, it’s no surprise that everyone is pushing themselves harder!”
Above the square, several flying demon beast mounts hovered in the sky, each carrying a group of remarkable young men and women. From a distance, they whispered to each other in hushed tones.
“The fourth grade of the Yuan Spirit Realm!”
Su Yi, sensing Jian Shiyi’s energy, remained unshaken. Though he had expected it, he was still struck by the revelation.
Jian Shiyi was not too old, and his cultivation at the fourth grade of the Yuan Spirit Realm spoke volumes about his talent.
“Swoosh…”
As Jian Shiyi’s power reached its peak, he formed another handprint, and the Earth-attribute energy around him swiftly transformed into water-attribute energy.
Green ribbons of light danced around him, filling the air with a cold, frosty aura that quickly turned the surrounding atmosphere into a freezing chamber.
Snowflakes and frost whirled, coalescing into a massive block of ice suspended in midair, radiating a brilliant, white glow.
“Rumble…”
The void above trembled as the icy breath spread, and the intense cold made the onlookers shiver uncontrollably.
“Frosty Killer King’s Seal!”
One disciple, trembling, murmured upon witnessing the terrifying power emanating from Jian Shiyi.
This was the Frosty Killer King’s Seal, one of the Divine Sword School’s most powerful King-grade martial arts. Few could master it.
In this moment, Jian Shiyi’s activation of this technique became all the more terrifying.
“Boom!”
With a mighty slap, Jian Shiyi unleashed a massive handprint, falling like an enormous block of ice. The resulting explosion sounded like thunder, shaking the very sky.
The area was filled with frost, deafening noise, and an eerie chill that shook the soul. The murderous intent in the attack was undeniable.
The disciples nearby quickly retreated, fear consuming them as the cold and deadly aura spread.
“Su Yi has always seemed to possess fire energy, and now Jian Shiyi is using water energy to suppress him!”
One disciple whispered in surprise. It’s widely known that water suppresses fire, and at equal cultivation levels, fire-based attacks are generally at a disadvantage against water-based ones.
Despite the oncoming onslaught, Su Yi’s eyes flashed with fierce energy, his expression unwavering. Instead of fear, his will to fight burned even brighter, as torrents of fiery energy surged within him.
With a low cry, Su Yi shouted, “Scarlet Ancient Seal!” At the same time, a wave of scorching heat emanated from his palm, roaring like an ocean of flames.
A handprint appeared in front of Su Yi, exuding a fierce, burning energy, along with an overwhelming ancient power that surged outward.
This was the Scarlet Ancient Seal—once Xiong Zhan’s trump card—and now an ultimate move from the Mighty Desolate Verse, an incredibly potent attack.
In their first battle, Su Yi had to rely on the Overlord’s Fist to resist the full force of the Scarlet Ancient Seal.
Now, however, Su Yi’s Scarlet Ancient Seal was amplified by the complete “Mighty Desolate Verse” from the “Divine Demonic Ancient Verse,” showcasing even greater power.
“Oh, this martial art… seems…”
When the Scarlet Ancient Seal erupted from Su Yi’s palm, the stewards of the Divine Sword School grew uneasy. Their sharp eyes could tell that Su Yi’s technique was just as, if not more, formidable than Jian Shiyi’s Frosty Killer King’s Seal.
“Boom…”
The two handprints—one cold, one hot—collided in an explosive burst of vitality. The resulting force surged across the square, and the sound of the collision reverberated like a mighty roar.
“Bang!”
Su Yi stumbled backward, each step causing the ancient, cracked stone beneath his feet to crumble into dust.
After six steps, Su Yi finally managed to regain his balance.
