Certain Defeat? Completely Unscathed

"Immortal Path Spear Technique!"

"Moon Chaser."

As he charged forward, the Universe Spear, held by Xuanyuan Long, pierced out like a shadow.

"Boom!"

A vast burst of spear light erupted, then condensed into a pure, cold light, like moonlight.

In no time, the Yue Hua- like spear light pierced down in front of Chen Changqing.

Wherever it passed, it carved a trail in the space that resembled an ice mark.

"Um?"

Seeing a glint of cold light pierce down in front of him, Chen Changqing narrowed his eyes slightly.

"The speed at which this attack was made is simply incomparable to that of an ordinary Spirit Transformation Cultivator."

Chen Changqing was secretly amazed.

As the spear's edge descended, the Haotian Hammer he gripped tightly in his hand suddenly emitted a dazzling light.

"Boom!"

When we looked again, Chen Changqing was already wielding the Haotian Hammer, swinging it upwards from below. Dark light emanated from the hammerhead, carrying an aura of destruction, as he fiercely met the spear's edge.

"Bang!"

A deafening roar resounded.

The next moment, the spear light that was rushing towards them was shattered by the force of the Haotian Hammer.

The spear's edge shattered but didn't dissipate immediately. Instead, it transformed into even sharper ice crystals, sweeping towards Chen Changqing from all directions.

"Oh?"

Upon seeing this, Chen Changqing was slightly surprised, not expecting that Xuanyuan Long's spear strike would be so exquisite.

On the surface, the spear light appeared extremely sharp, but who would have thought that the real killing move was the countless Ice Crystal Spear Qi that followed.

"Whoosh..."

These scenes unfolded in the blink of an eye, happening almost instantaneously.

In no time, the countless Ice Crystal Spear Qi had already struck Chen Changqing solidly.

Chen Changqing did not wield the Haotian Hammer to defend himself, but instead allowed the Ice Crystal Spear Qi to bombard him.

"Bang bang bang..."

Terrifying explosions rang out one after another, and a cloud of dust rose up from the scene, obscuring the sky.

Outside, on the Ancestral Dragon Platform.

Many members of the Xuanyuan Clan were immediately excited upon seeing this.

"Ha ha!"

"Very good!"

"Young Master Long's actions are truly extraordinary."

"Chen Changqing didn't even have time to react!"

"With so many Ice Crystal Spear Qi, even Late Spirit Transformation would be able to defeat them, right?"

"It's not as simple as just defeating him. If we're not careful, Chen Changqing might even lose his life!"

"Late Spirit Transformation is like a child in front of Mid Tribulation Transcendence Cultivator!"

"..."

The many members of the Xuanyuan Family were amazed and delighted to see this scene.

If the two people fighting in the Battle Realm were both members of the Xuanyuan Clan, they would naturally not act this way.

But the strange thing is that although Chen Changqing represents the Ninth Branch of the Xuanyuan Clan, he is not a member of the Xuanyuan Clan.

Furthermore, with six members of the clan having already been defeated by Chen Changqing, they naturally didn't want to see Chen Changqing shine in the competition.

Beneath the Dragon Pillar where the Ninth Branch is located.

Xuanyuan Yun and Xuanyuan Xiaoyu looked extremely solemn, their hearts pounding in their throats.

"It can't... end like this, can it?"

Xuanyuan Yun muttered to herself, knowing that with her Bandit Cultivator, she could tell that Chen Changqing had no time to react before being struck by the countless Ice Crystal Spear Qi.

"Changqing!"

"You... you absolutely mustn't be hurt!"

Upon seeing this, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu clenched her fists tightly, her eyes filled with worry.

At this point, she couldn't care less about winning the Annual Competition; all she could do was pray that Chen Changqing would be safe and sound.

"Snort!"

"That arrogant and conceited brat is finally going to be defeated!"

"Does he really think that just because he's a prodigy from the Shu Mountain Sacred Land, he can act so arrogantly in my Xuanyuan Clan?"

Seeing this, Xuanyuan Ao of the Seventh Branch felt quite pleased.

At the same time, he was extremely shocked.

"The strength of this Xuanyuan Long is truly terrifying!"

"Not only has his cultivation reached the Mid Tribulation Transcendence, but he also possesses... Immortal Artifact."

"Having an Immortal master is wonderful!"

Xuanyuan Ao sighed inwardly, feeling a deep sense of envy, jealousy, and resentment towards Xuanyuan Long.

Upon seeing the scene within the light screen, Xuanyuan Tian, who was suspended in the void, slightly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a smug smile.

After all, Xuanyuan Long was a member of the First Branch, and it was Xuanyuan Tian who used this technique.

Seeing Xuanyuan Long unleash such terrifying and unparalleled strength, Xuanyuan Tian was naturally delighted.

At this juncture, within the Battle Realm...

Xuanyuan Long hovered in mid-air, holding the Universe Spear horizontally in his hand, looking quite smug.

"That shot just now, absolutely no Spirit Transformation Cultivator could withstand it!"

"I wonder if Chen Changqing was seriously injured or has already died?"

Xuanyuan Long was extremely confident in the Immortal Spear Art he had just used.

In his view, that shot would have either killed or wounded Chen Changqing.

A short while later, the tremors subsided, and the dust and mist dispersed.

Upon closer inspection, Xuanyuan Long was utterly dumbfounded.

The spot where Chen Changqing stood had been blasted into a large crater by the endless Ice Crystal Spear Qi, yet Chen Changqing remained unharmed.

"This?"

How is that possible?

"He... he's actually alright?"

Xuanyuan Long cried out in shock, his face filled with bewilderment and confusion.

Just now I was thinking that Chen Changqing was bound to lose, and might even die tragically from that shot.

Who would have thought that this would be the outcome?

Not only was Xuanyuan Long stunned, but the Xuanyuan Family members outside were also caught off guard by this situation, their faces filled with disbelief.

"Ah?"

"I... I'm not seeing things, am I?"

"Chen Changqing is still standing?"

"It seems like nothing's wrong?"

"No! This is impossible!"

"He didn't even have time to react, so how could he have stopped that terrifying gunfire?"

"..."

Many members of the Xuanyuan clan cried out in shock, unable to believe what they were seeing.

Upon seeing this, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but cheer:

"Very good."

Changqing is alright!

Xuanyuan Yun, standing to the side, frowned slightly and muttered to himself:

How could that be?

"How... how did he manage to withstand it?"

In the void, Xuanyuan Tian, the patriarch of the Xuanyuan Clan, glanced around, his expression slightly grave, and he secretly wondered:

"In that situation, he had absolutely no chance to defend himself."

"So, Chen Changqing relied on... relied solely on his physical strength to withstand Long'er's spear?"

How is that possible?

"His physical body is so strong?"

"He's a disciple of Mount Shu, not from the True Martial Immortal Sect!"

Xuanyuan Tian gasped in surprise; even as Heavenly Monarch Lord, he was shocked by this sudden turn of events.

At this moment, within the Battle Realm.

Chen Changqing stood still, his expression completely calm.

If it were any other Spirit Transformation Cultivator, they would undoubtedly have been defeated by Xuanyuan Long's exquisite spear strike.

Unfortunately, Xuanyuan Long encountered him.

Although he didn't quite react, he still had physical defenses, so there was no need to activate it.

After mastering the Primordial Nine-Turn Body Refining Technique of Primordial Great Accomplishment, Chen Changqing's physical strength was comparable to that of High-grade Spirit Treasure.
