Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 193: Chapter 193: Purple Crystal Divine Power_1

Hearing Ling Xiao’s claim that he would defeat Li Xinghui within six moves, Lin Ze couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.

General Jiu Yue even laughed bitterly, ”Ling Xiao is still too young, which makes him so impulsive. It’s really unnecessary. If he cannot win within six moves, does he truly intend to take his own life? That would be too cost-inefficient.”

”I don’t think so.”

Ling Yixue’s icy gaze revealed a steadfast belief. She and Ling Xiao had both come from the Ling Family of Tianfeng City to this place, so her understanding of Ling Xiao far surpassed that of others.

Unable to help himself, General Jiu Yue shook his head and laughed bitterly, ”Miss Yi Xue, do you really think Ling Xiao can defeat Li Xinghui within six moves?

That’s highly unlikely!

Despite my annoyance, if I’m not mistaken, Li Xinghui, placed in our Hidden Dragon Camp, would be much stronger than both Shi Lei and Hua Nongying!

I remember that Ling Xiao took fifty moves to defeat Hua Nongying before, didn’t he?”

Ling Yixue didn’t speak; she just revealed a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.

Back then, Ling Xiao’s battle against Hua Nongying was just a practice to hone himself. Otherwise, the fight should have ended within ten moves.

Ling Xiao, as he was now, had become more than twice as strong as he was at that time.

No one on the scene was rooting for Ling Xiao.

Even the prodigies from the Hidden Dragon Camp were secretly shaking their heads, thinking Ling Xiao was being too arrogant.

A person usually so steady, why was he behaving so out of character today?

On the side of the Heavenly Ninja Academy, both Fei Yu and Fei Liu sneered endlessly.

They had originally planned to avenge Fei Mu and Fei Yun, but had not expected Ling Xiao to be so foolishly arrogant. It seemed this idiot was definitely going to take his own life right there and then.

Such a death would not only be foolish but also disgraceful, the laughingstock of the entire world.

Lu Xing, who had exchanged blows with Ling Xiao, murmured to himself, ”He really doesn’t know whether he’s alive or dead!”

He had sparred with both Ling Xiao and Li Xinghui, so he was well aware of their respective strengths. In his opinion, Ling Xiao might be able to defeat Li Xinghui, but within six moves?

That was simply too presumptuous.

Meanwhile, people like Shi Lei from the Hidden Dragon Camp actually hoped Ling Xiao could defeat Li Xinghui within six moves, because Li Xinghui’s earlier words had been too unpleasant to hear, completely disregarding their camp.

But even they thought this was highly unlikely.

”Arrogant fool!”

Li Xinghui bellowed, then his robes billowed as if caught in a wind.

A more distinct white tiger phantom appeared behind him, followed by white light bursting forth from his body.

With a step, the solid rocky ground cracked, and he pounced out like a fierce beast.

His hands, like tiger claws, fiercely grabbed through the air.

Crack!

The air itself tore under the might of these tiger claws, silvery-white light claws flying from his hands, transforming mid-air into massive claws several times larger, aiming to envelop Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao just stood there.

He showed no intention to dodge or retreat.

The once unremarkable aura around him suddenly turned sharp.

Behind him, the phantom of the Blood Blade Ancestor became even clearer, especially the Ancestor’s eyes, which brimmed with a sinister charm.

One could tell at a glance that it belonged to someone who didn’t play by the rules.

”My heavens, both of their Broken Martial Souls have actually reached seventy percent! They are evenly matched!”

Someone in the crowd shouted in surprise.

It had to be said, Li Xinghui’s progress was also incredibly fast. Back in Tianfeng City, his Broken Martial Soul was only at ten percent, and now it had reached seventy percent.

But it didn’t seem very stable.

He must have used some sort of drug to forcibly enhance it.

After all, as the Governor of Baiyun Province, Wan 犇 had far more resources than Lin Ze, not to mention his affiliations with the Ninja Clan and the Green-eyed Clan.

At this moment, Ling Xiao was unconcerned with the shouting of the crowd.

The Ice Glass Sword was drawn, and wave after wave of terrifying Sword Qi surged out from within, as if he had transformed into a sharp sword, constantly accumulating power.

He then awaited the moment to unleash a dreadful force.

”The first move!”

Ling Xiao’s sword pierced forth.

Amidst his shout, his figure became elusive and unpredictable, his swordplay equally capricious, and his shadow, like a ghostly charm, defying all logic.

Rip~~

A silver-white tiger claw tore straight through Ling Xiao’s body.

But that was just a meaningless afterimage.

Bang!

Behind the afterimage, a massive rock was shredded to pieces by the claw, demonstrating the terrifying power of Li Xinghui’s strike.

However, the onlookers had no time to be shocked, because Ling Xiao’s sword had already stabbed towards Li Xinghui’s heart from an odd angle.

Since this was a fight to the death, Ling Xiao had no intention of showing mercy.

To show mercy in such a battle was to court death itself.

After all, Li Xinghui still possessed the ability to kill him.

”How could this swordplay be so bizarre!”

Li Xinghui was taken aback; he truly had not anticipated that this world could harbor such a dreadfully strange swordplay.

He was the one who had struck first and seemed about to hit Ling Xiao, but in a flash, the situation had drastically changed.

Ling Xiao had seized the initiative instead, leaving him in a passive position.

However, even as he was shocked beyond measure, he had no time to marvel.

Danger was right before his eyes, and he frantically sped up the circulation of True Essence within his body.

”Purple Crystal Divine Power!”

With a bellow, Li Xinghui’s True Essence swiftly converged at the chest area in front of his body.

The agglomeration of those silver-white lights quickly solidified into an oddly shaped crystal shield.

The shield took on a diamond shape, looking as thick and solid as a real object, not at all like it was condensed from True Essence, and its defensive power was presumably formidable.

At the same time, Li Xinghui’s entire body was enveloped in a purple-blue aura, which was also an effect of the Purple Crystal Divine Power.

Seeing this, Ling Xiao merely revealed a contemptuous cold smile at the corner of his mouth.

The Ice Glass Sword in his hand continued its relentless thrust.

Only now, the sword carried even more of the Snow Lotus True Essence, making its penetrative force even more terrifying.

Chii!

The seemingly solid Purple Crystal Shield had no effect whatsoever and was instantly pierced by the sword.

Afterward, the Purple Crystal Shield shattered like glass, failing to provide any meaningful obstruction.

”Impossible! How could the Purple Crystal Shield be broken!”

In his excitement, Wan 犇 inadvertently crushed a giant rock beside him with a slap.

The rock’s fragments scattered, startling the nearby disciples of the Heavenly Ninja Academy, who hastily flew back; still, several of them were left bloodied by the debris.

No wonder Wan 犇 had lost his composure.

The Purple Crystal Divine Power was one of the top defense martial arts at the Heavenly Ninja Academy!

It could be said that even nearly Transcendent Martial Skills would struggle to break it for a short time, and martial artists of the same realm would hardly be able to penetrate this Purple Crystal Shield quickly.

Yet the reality was that Ling Xiao, with a Martial Vein Seventh Initial Stage cultivation level, had broken a defense martial art that the Heavenly Ninja Academy took pride in with a single sword strike.

”His True Essence must now all be nearly Transcendent True Essence!”

White Cloud Sect Leader Real Person Yiran, as an observer, quietly spoke to Wan 犇 beside him; of course, the flying debris posed no threat to him, so he did not bother to move.

”Nearly Transcendent True Essence? Did this youngster really cultivate a nearly Transcendent Internal Cultivation Mind Technique?”

Wan 犇 was once again startled.

The Heavenly Ninja Academy also possessed nearly Transcendent Internal Cultivation Mind Techniques, but possession alone wasn’t enough to cultivate them.

To cultivate nearly Transcendent Martial Arts required peak-level Mortal Body aptitude; otherwise, the likelihood of failure was very high, and there was even a risk of cultivation deviation.

Even for those with a peak-level Mortal Body, comprehending nearly Transcendent Martial Arts was no easy feat.
