Boom!
A scorching blast erupted from Liu Yan, and an aura far more violent than before swept outward.
"Mountain-Melting, Peak-Subduing Palm!"
Liu Yan slowly pushed both palms forward, his movements as heavy as mountains shifting. With the motion, violent True Essence surged forth and condensed in midair into an almost solid, scarlet palm of magma more than ten feet across!
Every line of the giant palm stood out clearly. It radiated devastating heat, and the air crackled and burned wherever it passed.
This was the strongest offensive technique Liu Yan had mastered in his lifetime!
Everyone below the platform went pale. Even with a barrier of light enclosing the arena, they seemed to feel the terrifying power within that palm, as though a volcano had been carried onto the platform and was crashing down upon it!
Faced with Liu Yan's full-force strike, Lin Chen finally showed a slight change in reaction.
He raised his head a little and looked at the magma palm blotting out the sky. His gaze remained calm. He merely turned his wrist, drawing a perfect arc before him with the Starshatter Sword.
It was still the Flowing Cloud Sword Form.
This time, however, the cloud vapor around the blade was no longer faint. It billowed out, not spreading away but gathering within ten feet of him, layer upon layer, flowing without end.
It was as if a sea of clouds had opened around him in an instant.
But Lin Chen alone knew it was no sea of clouds. It was a cloud of countless tiny strands of Sword Qi.
20% Sword Intent—unleashed!
For the first time since the fight began, Lin Chen infused his technique with the power of Sword Intent.
Then the magma palm slammed into the cloud of swords!
The earth-shaking explosion everyone expected
