The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2103: Don’t Judge by Appearances

The sons of Lords such as the Second Young Master and Third Young Master, who are heirs to territories, how proud they are?

Even Seventh Young Master Ying Zuo, they look down. In their eyes, Ying Zuo’s status is probably much lower than that of their guests. If it weren’t for having the same father preventing them, how could they possibly share a seat with Ying Zuo, this low-born son?

So, being so humiliated by Jing Yan at this moment, their killing intent towards Jing Yan had already reached its peak. It’s just because, the Thousand Gu under the Eldest Young Master’s command, who is at mid-stage of All Things Realm, was instantly killed by Jing Yan, making them wary of Jing Yan’s strength.

Zhao Ping was about to go up to the Battle Platform, and the Second Young Master hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

Zhao Ping, a cultivator at the late stage of All Things Realm, walked onto the Battle Platform and stood against Jing Yan.

Jing Yan and Zhao Ping stared at each other.

”What, only one comes up? Is this the only one with the guts to challenge me?” Jing Yan spoke.

Since the high profile display was already there, he might as well be arrogant to the end, making these young masters and ladies dare not underestimate the Seventh Young Master in the future.

”You little runt, don’t be too arrogant!”

”Soon, you won’t even know how you died.”

Voices of shouting echoed.

Many young masters were casting hateful glances at Jing Yan.

”Jing Yan, your strength is indeed a bit surprising. Unexpectedly, the Seventh Young Master could recruit a powerhouse like you.” Zhao Ping stared at Jing Yan and said slowly.

He didn’t mean to underestimate Jing Yan at all, of course, after Jing Yan instantly killed Thousand Gu. Although Jing Yan is merely at mid-stage of All Things Realm, he cannot be matched by an average practitioner at this stage. If his spell didn’t happen to restrain Jing Yan’s Seven Luminaries Technique, Zhao Ping might not have come up to compete with Jing Yan.

Jing Yan scanned Zhao Ping and said, ”It seems you’re the only one willing to come up here to die!”

Arrogance!

At this moment, Jing Yan’s words and actions were very arrogant. Today, at the Ying Family’s meeting, Jing Yan indeed was incensed.

”Haha, I want to see how you make me die!” Zhao Ping sneered.

”Swish!”

A black long whip appeared in his hand.

Zhao Ping’s Magic Treasure is a piece of All Things Realm level Magic Artifact, but among the same level, it is considered the best quality.

Nether Sky Realm Magic Artifacts are not something every cultivator of All Things Realm can afford. The offspring of Lords certainly all have Nether Sky Realm Magic Artifacts. But ordinary All Things Realm cultivators simply can’t afford to buy Nether Sky Realm Magic Artifacts. The Nether Sky Realm Magic Artifact Jing Yan brought out was sold to Mystic Moon Trading House for two million Black Crystal Stones. If purchasing such a Magic Artifact, it requires more Black Crystal Stones.

Ordinary All Things Realm cultivators, where can they get more than two million Black Crystal Stones to buy a Magic Artifact?

”Let me, Zhao Ping, see your strength!” Zhao Ping swung the black long whip in his hand, and with that came an ear-piercing sound.

Whip shadows spread, green ripples spread, and the icy aura was immediately felt by everyone present.

Zhao Ping, when confronting Lu Tuan, didn’t use a weapon.

”Seven Luminaries Technique!” Jing Yan acted directly.

With the Seven Luminaries Technique being performed, a violent scorching sensation followed.

”Ice River Language!” After Jing Yan acted, Zhao Ping dared not be careless at all, with a low shout, he performed his strongest spell.

This spell is called Ice River Language.

As the spell was being performed, a cold aura spread immediately.

Ice River Language and Seven Luminaries Technique are spells of completely different attributes. Zhao Ping said his spell restrains Jing Yan’s Seven Luminaries Technique, and this point was indeed correct. Seven Luminaries Technique is considered a Fire Attribute spell, while Ice River Language is a Water Attribute spell.

If two equally powerful cultivators were to duel, then the cultivator mastering a Water Attribute spell would certainly have a greater advantage than the one mastering a Fire Attribute spell.

Moreover, Zhao Ping’s spell matched with the Magic Artifact long whip. The Magic Artifact and spell complemented each other, giving Zhao Ping’s overall combat power a certain increase.

On the Battle Platform, spells of two completely different attributes collided.

”Buzzing!” Vast power spread, causing every cultivator on site to tense their bodies.

The air alternated between scorching heat waves and bone-chilling cold.

One side was fire, the other side was ice!

The Sixth Lady’s gaze was also fixed on the Battle Platform, guessing in her mind whether Zhao Ping or Jing Yan could defeat the other and claim victory.

Jing Yan’s realm was lower than Zhao Ping’s, and his spell was restrained by Zhao Ping’s. Moreover, Jing Yan didn’t have a Magic Treasure, and was just using his hands to perform the Seven Luminaries Technique.

If looking at the surface, it was almost certain that Jing Yan would be defeated. But Jing Yan’s ability obviously cannot be judged by surface conditions alone. If judged only on the surface, it would be impossible to instantly kill Thousand Gu, the mid-stage All Things Realm practitioner under the command of the Eldest Young Master.

After a loud noise, the spells of both on the Battle Platform were distinguished between victory and defeat.

Jing Yan stood on the spot, while Zhao Ping retreated continuously, barely stabilizing himself at the edge of the platform.

He was much better than the previous two. The previous two practitioners who fought Jing Yan were both instantly killed by the Seven Luminaries Technique, whereas he, although retreating continuously, remained unharmed, only his divine power fluctuated slightly, and his body felt a bit numb, with parts of his robe scorched black. His robe was also a Defense Magical Treasure, but the patterns on the surface now appeared dim, evidently having suffered some damage.

”How is this possible!” Zhao Ping stared at Jing Yan in shock.

He was completely at a loss as to why he was at a disadvantage.

From any aspect, he was already the one with the upper hand. But the result wasn’t anything like imagined.

”This Jing Yan, his use of divine power and spells has reached a pinnacle. His power almost suffers no loss in attack. Truly frightening, where on earth did he come from? Even I can hardly control power to such a meticulous degree!” The Lord Ying Zhu pondered in his mind.

He was the one with the highest realm present. Others might not notice Jing Yan’s meticulous control over power, but the Lord Ying Zhu did. Jing Yan was precisely leveraging this advantage to instantly kill the previous Thousand Gu, and now suppress Zhao Ping.

”The strength is indeed quite decent.” Jing Yan chuckled lightly.

”But that’s all there is to it!” Jing Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

His arm rose again.

Zhao Ping stood at the edge of the Battle Platform, contemplating whether to voluntarily concede and end this duel. After the previous clash, he almost entirely lost the confidence to defeat Jing Yan, let alone kill him. But if he conceded now, wouldn’t it be too disgraceful? Not only would it be disgraceful for him, but also for the Second Young Master.

His slight hesitation allowed Jing Yan’s second attack, and those seven scorching halos were already enveloping him once more.
