Immediately, the four people on the field became tense and ready to draw their swords.
The disciples of the Star Moon Sect were the first to approach Jiang Liu. With a slash of their longswords, a burst of energy condensed into a sword light, and the swords shot directly toward Jiang Liu.
Jiang Liu drew his broadsword to block, then slashed straight down, creating a phantom image of the broadsword that slashed towards the Star Moon Sect disciple. The two immediately began to fight.
The disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect then launched an attack on Li Qiaoyun, drawing their longswords and unleashing a move called Flowing Clouds and Flying Moon, the swords emitting a dazzling light as they hurtled towards Li Qiaoyun.
Li Qiaoyun raised her long sword and unleashed a powerful and majestic move. A surge of righteous energy descended from the sky to meet her, and the two immediately began to fight, their swords clashing back and forth.
Jiang Liu grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed. The strength of this Star Moon Sect disciple was definitely higher than that of Ji Hao from before. No wonder he was able to join forces with the Flowing Cloud Sect disciple to defeat the Buddha.
Jiang Liu could sense that the Buddha was very powerful, already poised to advance to the Lesser Minor Grandmaster level. And this Flowing Cloud Sect disciple's strength was definitely no less than the Buddha's.
I wonder if these disciples of the three sects are considered True Inheritor Disciple within their respective sects. If they are not True Inheritor Disciple, then the younger generation of the three sects must be truly remarkable.
Jiang Liu used his movement skills to dodge and weave across the arena, while the Star Moon Sect disciple kept chasing and slashing at Jiang Liu with his long sword.
In this confined space, Jiang Liu finally felt the usefulness of the movement technique's teleportation feature. It allowed him to change direction at will, moving east and west, keeping the Star Moon Sect disciples constantly on their toes.
Jiang Liu leaped into the air, wielding his sword with both hands, Heaven and Earth One Blade Chop, a blade of light flashing out as it slashed down at the Star Moon Sect disciple.
The Star Moon Sect disciple was chasing Jiang Liu and getting frustrated. When he saw that Jiang Liu was finally willing to fight him head-on, he also used the move "Moon Shines on the Starry Sky" and a cold sword light shot upwards.
"Clang!" Swords clashed. The longsword in the Star Moon Sect disciple's hand was severed at the blade by Jiang Liu's broadsword, and the Star Moon Sect disciple's right arm was also cut off by Jiang Liu's blade.
Jiang Liu kicked him off the stage, and then the stage screen flashed, throwing his severed arm off the stage as well.
The Star Moon Sect disciple fainted from the pain as soon as he stepped off the arena. His fellow disciples rushed to his aid, while some glared angrily at Jiang Liu.
Jiang Liu ignored them and turned to look at the place where Li Qiaoyun was fighting with the Flowing Cloud Sect disciple.
The two were still exchanging blows with their swords, their sword energy crisscrossing everywhere. It seemed they would fight until they were both exhausted before a victor emerged.
Jiang Liu stomped his foot on the arena. He wondered what material it was made of, as it was so sturdy. Jiang Liu was very curious.
Seeing that they fought for a while longer without a clear winner, Jiang Liu got tired of waiting any longer and unleashed the Eight Steps of Trampling, a powerful strike that combined his entire aura, directly attacking the Flowing Cloud Sect disciple.
"Ah!" The Flowing Cloud Sect disciple was stunned by Jiang Liu's aura and caught off guard, his right hand was severed by Li Qiaoyun. Then, Li Qiaoyun kicked him off the stage.
Then, Li Qiaoyun turned to Jiang Liu with a smile and said, "Young Master Jiang, could you give me that Mystic Treasure?"
Jiang Liu ignored her, drew his broadsword and slashed directly at Li Qiaoyun. He had risked his life for the Mystic Treasure, and now he was just handing it over to her?
Li Qiaoyun was taken aback when she saw Jiang Liu draw his sword and attack. She didn't expect this guy to be unmoved by her charms. Wherever she went, she was always sought after.
I thought he was interested in her after I helped her defeat the Flowing Cloud Sect disciples. Looks like I was overthinking it.
Immediately, Li Qiaoyun focused her attention on fighting Jiang Liu. Using her movement skills, she dodged Jiang Liu's attack.
Jiang Liu had no idea what she was thinking. Seeing that Li Qiaoyun had dodged his attack, he immediately released his Divine Sense to envelop Li Qiaoyun, and then Annihilation by Thought.
Li Qiaoyun froze for a moment. Jiang Liu flipped his broadsword and slammed Li Qiaoyun off the stage. If he wasn't worried about how to explain it to Li Moran, Jiang Liu wouldn't have minded hitting her harder.
Li Qiaoyun only regained her senses when Jiang Liu slapped her off the stage with a knife. She touched the spot where she had been hit by the knife, glared at Jiang Liu with resentment, and stomped her foot, probably feeling unconvinced.
Jiang Liu ignored Li Qiaoyun and waited on the arena for a while before the brocade box flew up from the huge stone pillar and into the arena.
Jiang Liu reached out his right hand to take it, and as soon as he touched it, he felt that the brocade box seemed to be empty. When he opened it, it was indeed empty. Jiang Liu was so angry that he felt like vomiting blood.
The audience below stared in astonishment at the brocade box in Jiang Liu's hand, never expecting that after all the fighting, the box would be empty.
Jiang Liu was so angry that he threw the brocade box into the air, picked up a large knife, and cleaved the brocade box in two from the opening.
Just as Jiang Liu split the brocade box in two, a sudden beam of light shone into the secret realm. The secret realm had been somewhat dark and gloomy before, but now that feeling was gone.
Everyone looked up toward the source of the bright light, only to see that the light was coming from the same spot where the light source had been, and now the opening there had been magnified many times over.
The brocade box, split in two by Jiang Liu, underwent changes under the intense light, but no one noticed it at the moment; only Jiang Liu was closest to it, saw the change. Everyone's attention was drawn to the bright light.
Jiang Liu quickly used his Yuan Qi to grab the two halves of the brocade box and stuffed them into his robes. Then he went to search for the figure on the giant stone pillar.
But the figure had long since disappeared; it must have vanished the moment the bright light appeared. At that moment, a tremendous sound erupted throughout the entire secret realm.
Moreover, the noise grew louder and louder, at which point someone shouted, "Is this secret realm about to collapse?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately sprang into action and flew towards the entrance they had come in through.
Jiang Liu also quickly jumped off the arena and flew towards the entrance.
When everyone arrived at the entrance, they were stunned to find it gone. Panic gripped them as they frantically searched for a new exit.
Jiang Liu was trying to determine the location, because according to the direction he came from, the exit shouldn't be here. He then turned around and ran towards the courtyard complex.
Several martial artists saw Jiang Liu walking back and followed him, as did Li Qiaoyun and the Buddha.
Jiang Liu Liufei darted into the courtyard complex and headed straight for the square. After passing the arena, he continued to fly forward without stopping.
Jiang Liu flew forward for about twenty miles and sure enough, he saw a bright light ahead. At this time, the tremors of the entire secret realm were getting stronger and stronger, and some places had begun to collapse. Jiang Liu rushed towards the exit without stopping.
Jiang Liu saw the light screen from afar and immediately flew over it, passing through in a flash. The martial artists following Jiang Liu also passed through in one go.
Before long, more and more people passed through the light curtain. At this moment, the noise in the entire secret realm reached its maximum, and finally, with a loud "boom," the entire secret realm collapsed.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the mountain, the crowd in the square stared in disbelief as the mountain seemed to have been suddenly blasted down by a single blow. They had already sensed something was wrong when the mountain trembled earlier, but they never expected it to collapse so suddenly.
Everyone stared in disbelief at the scene before them. The mountainside in front of them had completely caved in, leaving a huge the Pit tens of feet deep in the ground. It seemed that the entire mountain in front of them had sunk.
Even though almost everyone present was Grandmaster, they were all dumbfounded. This was something beyond human capability; at least none of the Grandmaster present could achieve this level of skill.
