Chapter 94
"That means, both of you, come at me together!"
The moment the words left his mouth, the entire room erupted in uproar!
Everyone was shocked by Xiao Minghuang's words!
What... what does this mean?
Is this an insult?
The Fifth Prince and the Sixth Prince, one has grasped the Spear Intent Embryo and the other the Sword Intent Embryo, and both possess numerous trump cards. For Princess Ziwei to challenge two such young prodigies at the same time is simply a pipe dream!
Has she gone mad?
Upon hearing this statement...
Even the Fifth Prince and the Sixth Prince were stunned on the spot.
After a moment, the Fifth Prince couldn't help but ask:
"What did you say?"
Xiao Minghuang glanced indifferently at the Fifth Prince, her eyes calm yet revealing an air of domineering arrogance, and said softly:
"I said, you two should come at me together, to save time."
If anyone else had said such a thing, the Fifth Prince would have dismissed it as the ravings of a madman. But when Princess Ziwei uttered those words, he felt a sense of oppressive unease.
Because he knew that the woman in front of him might actually possess such power!
The Sixth Prince was the same; he stared intently at Xiao Minghuang and asked, word by word:
Are you sure?
"What? You're not even confident in a two-on-one situation?"
Xiao Minghuang chuckled softly, then stepped through the void and stood on the arena.
"You're incredibly arrogant!"
The Sixth Prince narrowed his eyes, let out a cold shout, his entire being exuding a chilling sword aura, and said in a deep voice:
"I want to see if the renowned Princess Ziwei truly lives up to her name!"
Before he could finish speaking...
A powerful sword aura burst forth from his body, swirling up countless sharp sword shadows that seemed capable of piercing through the void, linked together in a continuous and endless cycle!
His speed was incredibly fast, accompanied by a flurry of sword shadows, and he arrived in front of Xiao Minghuang in an instant, unleashing a sword strike!
This sword strike carried an unstoppable momentum, its Sword Qi seemingly tearing the void apart. A terrifying gust of wind blew, ruffling the black hair on her forehead and scattering the strands of hair in front of her eyes, causing her eyes to squint slightly, making her look even more beautiful and captivating!
The Sixth Prince's cultivation was already quite strong. He used a Xuan-rank sword technique to control a Xuan-rank magic weapon, and with the nascent Sword Intent Embryo he already possessed, he unleashed this move in an instant, which was enough to kill Xiao Minghuang with his sword!
However, just as the sword shadow was about to strike Xiao Minghuang...
A faint golden light suddenly appeared around Xiao Minghuang, which instantly condensed into an incomparably dazzling golden light, like a star shining.
A dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth from her body, so bright and dazzling that it stung the eyes of everyone present.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Wherever the starlight touched, countless sword shadows shattered, turning into specks of starlight.
"What's this?!"
Upon seeing this, the Sixth Prince was greatly alarmed.
117. Dust endures forever, insignificant; a shooting star is fleeting, a moment of eternity.
The Sixth Prince was greatly surprised. Although they were both at the Spring Gushing Second Layer, his attack could not shake Princess Ziwei in the slightest!
"Just how deep is the princess's foundation? What rank is this supernatural power? Earth rank... or the legendary Heaven rank?"
He had never witnessed such supernatural power or majesty before; it was completely beyond his comprehension.
After the brilliance faded, only a faint golden light remained, swirling around Xiao Minghuang like a satellite protecting the main star.
With a thought, Xiao Minghuang caused the starlight to dissipate, transforming into specks of starlight that merged into her body.
Since breaking through to the Spring Gushing Realm, she can now control the protective starlight at will, making her impervious to all spells and invincible to all enemies at all times!
This is due to both the improvement in her cultivation level and the huge boost brought by her Heavenly Rank Five Elements Spiritual Root, which makes her spiritual power inexhaustible. If it were an ordinary martial artist, she would probably run out of spiritual power in less than a quarter of an hour, but she doesn't need to worry about this problem at all.
Everyone present was extremely surprised.
"No wonder Princess Ziwei dared to accept challenges from both the Fifth Prince and the Sixth Prince at the same time; her strength is truly formidable!"
"In this competition, I'm afraid neither the Fifth Prince nor the Sixth Prince will gain an advantage."
"That's not necessarily true. The Sixth Prince's sword strike wasn't at full power, and the Fifth Prince hasn't even made his move yet. The outcome is still uncertain!"
"Shh! Quiet! The truly exciting part of this competition is about to begin!"
In the audience, the Second Prince was also full of surprise. He knew that Princess Ziwei was very strong, but he did not expect her to be this strong, able to withstand the Sixth Prince's sword without changing her expression.
But...
"In this two-against-one battle, Princess Ziwei is destined to lose!"
As night deepened, countless stars shone brightly, the Milky Way hung high in the sky, and moonlight poured down, bathing the earth in its glow.
In the night sky, the vast expanse is dotted with bright stars, making it exceptionally dazzling.
Boundless starlight shone upon the arena.
The endless starlight seemed to serve as a backdrop, highlighting the unparalleled beauty of the celestial being banished to earth.
Xiao Minghuang stood quietly on the arena, her hands folded in her sleeves. Her eyes were clear and bright, as if shimmering with a faint golden light, seemingly even brighter than the most dazzling stars.
She glanced indifferently at the Fifth Prince and Sixth Prince not far away, her eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.
"I told you, all of you come at me at once!"
Having just been tested, the Sixth Prince knew in his heart that he might not be able to defeat Princess Ziwei on his own.
His gaze shifted, landing on the Fifth Prince standing not far away.
Coincidentally.
The Fifth Prince also turned his gaze over.
Their gazes met.
Their meaning was self-evident.
"Join forces and defeat her!"
The next moment.
The Fifth Prince and the Sixth Prince swiftly stepped out from the left and right, standing on either side of the arena.
This scene was witnessed by everyone present.
Someone exclaimed in surprise:
"The Fifth Prince and the Sixth Prince, have joined forces?"
Someone sighed:
"Princess Ziwei is too powerful. Even geniuses like the Fifth Prince and the Sixth Prince have to join forces to fight against her!"
After the exchange, everyone understood that Princess Ziwei's strength was probably much greater than that of the Sixth Prince, who had comprehended the sword intent.
Amidst the discussion...
The atmosphere on the stage was extremely tense.
Three powerful auras separated the four directions, collided with each other, and burst out with ripples of spiritual energy, as if the air itself had become scorching hot and the temperature was rising rapidly!
A dazzling and sharp Sword Qi roared up, instantly transforming into ten, then a hundred, interconnected, intricately linked, weaving a vast net of Sword Qi that stretched for hundreds of feet, tearing through the night sky, covering everything, heading straight for Xiao Minghuang's location!
"A hundred-foot chain of swords, I wonder if the princess can withstand this strike?"
This sword strike carried unparalleled power, as if it would slice the entire world into countless tiny fragments!
Seeing this, the Fifth Prince's eyes widened in surprise, thinking to himself, "Is this the Sixth Prince's true strength?"
Everyone held their breath as they saw the sword coming.
Faced with such a powerful sword strike, Xiao Minghuang remained standing still, without any reaction, not even frowning, as if all of this had nothing to do with her.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
A dazzling hundred-foot-long chain of lights hurtled down, about to slice Xiao Minghuang into pieces.
At this critical moment.
Xiao Minghuang finally moved.
An unparalleled pressure erupted from her body, and the stars in the sky suddenly shone brighter, as if they had become countless times brighter in an instant.
The tip of the Big Dipper is the star Yao Guang.
Suddenly, a dazzling light burst forth, and all the starlight in the sky condensed into one, transforming into an extremely thin beam of light that instantly crossed the endless void and descended upon Xiao Minghuang.
This slender beam of light seemed to connect her with the distant Yao Guang Star, forming a solid halo that enveloped Xiao Minghuang.
Boom!
The hundred-foot-long chains of metal crashed down, slamming violently into the circle of light with a deafening roar!
The Sword Qi rang out!
The stars are twinkling!
The earth shook, and the ground within a radius of hundreds of feet cracked open inch by inch. Countless ravines rose from the ground, as if the entire ground had been torn apart. Dust flew and smoke billowed into the sky!
Everyone jumped back to steady themselves and avoid the dust.
The immense impact caused a large area of surrounding buildings to collapse, turning houses into piles of rubble that flew through the night sky.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
So powerful! What a domineering attack!
"A Xuan-rank magic weapon, a Xuan-rank sword technique, and the Sword Intent Embryo —even within the Spirit Sword Sect, few could rival the Sixth Prince's strength!"
" Within the Spring Gushing Realm, there are probably few who can rival the Sixth Prince."
"The disciples of the Grand Master are indeed not to be judged by ordinary standards."
Seeing the earth-shattering scene, the Fifth Prince was also surprised. The Sixth Prince's strength was indeed formidable. If he had unleashed that sword strike just now, he would have been seriously injured unless he used a desperate secret technique.
Gradually.
The smoke and dust cleared.
Everyone looked up again and saw what was happening on the arena:
Xiao Minghuang stood unharmed on the arena, looking down at them with an indifferent expression.
Her body, like an unchanging star, shines eternally, unaffected by the passage of time, let alone destroyed.
Seeing that Xiao Minghuang was completely unharmed, everyone fell into a deep silence.
"How... how could this happen?"
"Could it be that all the attacks just now missed? Or is it that the Sixth Prince didn't use his true strength at all?"
"That's impossible! It clearly hit Princess Ziwei squarely just now, how could it have no effect?"
This moment.
They were completely stunned by Xiao Minghuang.
The Sixth Prince's sword strike, as intricate as a net of heaven and earth, was powerful enough to shatter a small mountain, yet Princess Ziwei easily neutralized it.
Such formidable strength is simply unbelievable and unimaginable.
The Sixth Prince's face turned pale. He hadn't expected that his strongest attack would still be no match for Princess Ziwei.
He turned his gaze to the Fifth Prince, who was standing not far away.
