What, am I thanking you?!

Is ' Lin Fan ' amazing?

In Qiu Mobai's opinion, he wasn't particularly powerful, but the amount of True Essence this guy possessed was so terrifying that it made him despair!

As for the rest...

I didn't see any particularly powerful spells, nor any terrifying techniques, and I didn't even see any magical treasures.

But it was precisely that terrifying amount of True Essence and the difference in their cultivation levels that drove him to despair, so Qiu Mobai was never truly convinced.

But looking at it now...

Okay!

So, they weren't even serious about it back then?!

At this moment, the battle between Ji Chutong and ' Lin Fan ' had truly reached its climax...

On other arenas, numerous prodigies were engaged in fierce battles, but almost everyone in the stands ignored them and focused their attention on Ji Chutong and Lin Fan.

"It seems the battle is about to reach a decisive point!"

"These two are both extraordinary individuals..."

"One is the Tai Yi Saintess, Ji Chutong, with Innate Dao Body, and the other is Rogue Cultivator. But to have reached the Refinement Void stage at such a young age, they must also be geniuses who are not to be underestimated!"

"The Sendai Dao question Dao Principles Embodiment, and the other is to summon heavenly lightning..."

"This is a battle between the Heavenly Might and the laws of the Dao!"

"Heavenly lightning... in some ways, is it inferior to the laws of nature?"

"That depends on what kind of lightning it is, and what kind of path it is!"

"..."

Exclamations of amazement continued.

At the same time, it was difficult for anyone to predict the outcome at this moment, even those powerful figures at the Celestial Platform Realm were paying close attention.

Such a prodigy, and such an amazing battle, are truly rare sights.

"Such geniuses, throughout an entire era, there are at most only a few dozen, maybe even less than ten, such individuals, right?"

Huo Yuan seemed to recall something, and a sense of melancholy washed over him...

On the stage, neither of them made a move immediately, but instead gathered their strength!

Neither of them underestimated the other, because the other's methods were far beyond their expectations...

Especially Ji Chutong.

She originally thought that she had victory in her grasp, and that when she unleashed the true trump card she had prepared for Du Chuan, no one could stop her.

Even Du Chuan wouldn't do!

However, Lin Fan's move to summon heavenly lightning has shocked her and left her deeply disturbed.

"Is this your final trump card?"

Ji Chutong whispered, "He's more formidable than I imagined. No wonder he dared to provoke me."

"The trump card?"

Lin Fan smiled and said, "I suppose so. So, shall we make a move?"

"Then let's go!"

Ji Chutong no longer hesitated, her jade fingers forming a sword, and Nur slashed down.

Choke!

The sword energy was astonishing, but what was most terrifying was that countless Dao principles were empowering his body, which actually converged into a sword. A terrifying giant sword composed of Dao principles descended from the sky and slashed down, as if it wanted to cut this world apart!

Wherever the Great Sword of Dao passed, even the boundaries of space blurred, as if it were being torn apart!

Space itself has been torn apart?!

Countless cultivators turned pale and were filled with fear upon witnessing this scene!

This kind of power is an astonishing technique that can only be unleashed at the late stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm or even at the peak of the Tribulation Transcending Realm!

After all, if one could tear through space and stabilize it, one could teleport!

It should be noted that...

Even ordinary cultivators at the peak of the Tribulation Transcending stage might not be able to do it!

Those who can teleport at the peak of the Tribulation Transcending stage are all geniuses.

However, Ji Chutong's attack at this moment had already reached the attack power of a 'genius' peak Tribulation Transcending cultivator...

"Good timing!"

Qi Zixiao, in his guise as ' Lin Fan ', let out a long laugh and, instead of advancing, retreated, actually taking the Sword Master.

At the same time, she Cloud Piercing Sword high in her hand.

Arcs of electricity crackled along the sword's blade, seemingly forming some connection with the terrifying heavenly lightning above...

"The Nine Heavens Mysterious Temple transformed into divine thunder."

' Lin Fan ' spoke, murmuring softly, as if in a dream.

"The mighty Heavenly Might, drawn forth with the sword..."

"Divine Sword Control Thunder True Technique!"

Boom!!!

A thunderclap boomed, as if in response to Qi Zixiao's words. A bolt of lightning descended from the sky, flashing behind him and emitting a dazzling light that was impossible to look directly at.

At the same time, even more terrifying lightning surged in like a tide, converging on the Cloud Piercing Sword and brewing an incomparably terrifying offensive.

At this moment, the Cloud Piercing Sword was covered in lightning, shining brilliantly!

Moreover, if we center the sword on...

Then, the terrifying lightning never stopped, reaching from the sky to the ground!

Connecting heaven and earth!

Sword energy surged forth, emitting endless golden light.

Thunder roared, reaching the heavens and connecting the earth, with the sword's blade at its center...

Wherever the sword light touched, terrifying lightning would strike.

Buzz...

Tear!

boom...

As far as the eye could see, all was a vast expanse of white.

Unless one is born with a special eye technique or has specifically cultivated one, other cultivators are completely unable to see at this moment...

Even the array set up by the Celestial Platform Expert began to sway at this moment, as if it could not withstand this terrifying clash.

Immediately afterward, when the terrifying white light finally dissipated, people's eyes were immediately fixed on the two people. Then, they found that the two people were still standing in the same place, as if they had never moved.

Even the Greatsword of Dao is fine.

The ' Heavenly Thunder Sword ' has vanished.

No one was hurt...

However, both of their clothes were somewhat disheveled...

Clearly, both players were affected by this exchange, but it seems that neither has yet emerged victorious.

"So strong!"

Shi Tiesheng gradually relaxed. "This Fellow Daoist HeHe is really strong!"

"Now do you believe me? I told you, Brother Lin is reliable!"

Dan the Fatty was terrified and his heart was pounding!

He could see it clearly. Just like that attack... it looked like neither of them was injured, as if nothing had happened, right?

But if you were to throw yourself in... you would surely be reduced to ashes in an instant!

The Divine Calculator shook his head and muttered various things, but it was impossible to understand what he was saying.

Fan Jianqiang was drinking, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he quickly smiled again...

"Amazing!"

Lu Ming looked on with envy. "This kind of sword technique... must be incredibly valuable, right?"

"Even in our Purple Mansion Holy Land, there is no such sword technique. Those powerful beings can summon heavenly lightning on their own, but no one has ever fused a sword technique with heavenly lightning..." Chen Cheng exclaimed, "I wonder which senior created it?"

"He must be an exceptionally talented person, but why is there no record of him in ancient books or legends?" Zhou Yining said, puzzled.

Qi Saintess smiled slightly.

I have never seen it in ancient books or legends?

You're right if you haven't seen it before!

Because the concept behind the Divine Sword Control Thunder True Technique... comes from Earth!

Heavenly lightning is powerful enough, but cultivators above the Great Ascension Stage can generally attract some of it on their own, though the strength varies.

My body is only at the Void Refining Late Stage, how can I activate it?!

Using the divine sword as a catalyst!

However, if it is just heavenly lightning, its power may not be too strong. But what if it is combined with sword techniques and one's own understanding of the way of the sword, and integrated into one?

The power will naturally be multiplied!

At this moment, both ' Qi Saintess ' and the real person were filled with excitement.

The Divine Sword Control Thunder True Technique was successfully used for the first time, which means that the development... was successful!

Moreover, since it was the first time he had used it, there were many shortcomings, and the build-up of power was relatively slow.

Qi Zixiao was confident that she could continuously improve it and make it stronger in the not-too-long time to come!

Such a powerful attack method can definitely be one of my strongest offensive strategies... How could I not be happy?

opposite...

Ji Chutong's expression didn't change much, but the shock in her heart left her speechless.

That's quite a drain!

Such a blow would be a considerable burden even for her.

But what about the other side?

That guy actually seemed quite excited, and even smiled!

even...

He could clearly feel that he had been greatly exhausted, but in the blink of an eye, he seemed to have recovered completely, his True Essence full again!

Are you scared...?

It wasn't that bad, but Ji Chutong still felt uncomfortable. Who would want to face an opponent like that?!

Moreover, that sword strike that had just summoned heavenly lightning and connected heaven and earth had also greatly alarmed her!

"The sword technique and the heavenly lightning have merged, and their power has increased many times over. They can even suppress my Dao Principle Sword... It's really quite amazing."

In the stands.

Huo Yuan seemed to be deep in thought.

"A good idea. This child is indeed a promising talent. For a Rogue Cultivator to have reached this level is quite remarkable..."

The subordinate standing nearby asked in confusion, "Sir, why can't it be that this boy learned this technique from some Daoist Canon, great tomb, or lineage?"

"Hehe."

Huo Yuan gently shook his head. "Even in the eyes of us Sendai cultivators, this kind of magic is not outdated!"

"Its power depends on the strength of the heavenly lightning it attracts, as well as the strength of one's own sword technique and sword intent."

"If such a brilliant and exquisite method truly existed in history, why would it remain unknown and unheard of, and why have we never even heard of it?"

"I see!"

"My lord is wise..."

That's some serious flattery...

Huo Yuan shook his head and chuckled, but did not speak again.

On the other side, Jiu Wu and Xiao Zhan, who were hidden in the crowd, were also secretly amazed.

"This kid's got some interesting qualities!"

"It's a pity his swordsmanship is mediocre, and he doesn't even have sword intent. Otherwise, this sword strike might have forced Ji Chutong to use her life-saving methods!"

"What, you want to take on an apprentice?" Jiu Wu took a big gulp of wine and chuckled softly.

"It's not that bad." Xiao Zhan shook his head. "It's not my way. Taking him in would only mislead him. Besides, he definitely has his own opportunities. It's not easy to take him in!"

"I think you'd better not take on any apprentices."

Jiu Wu suddenly spoke, causing Xiao Zhan to be slightly taken aback. "Why?"

"Why else? Don't you have any self-awareness? You're already incredibly lucky to have taught that chubby kid well, and you still want to take on disciples? That would truly be misleading people, and doing so in a very serious way!"

"Jiu Wu..."

"Um?!"

"You son of a bitch!"

"Hey? Keep it down, keep it down!"

"I was just telling you the truth and giving you some useful advice, why bother? No need to thank me, really no need."

"I'm thanking you for this?!"
