The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 78: Chapter 78: No Match Chapter 78: Chapter 78: No Match “Jing Yan, we’re in big trouble!”

“Yes, I thought that in this grand competition of the Jing Family, Jing Yan would certainly take first place.

But unexpectedly, Jing Shaohe, a Half-step Innate Martial Artist, has emerged.

Jing Yan might very well be defeated here and not even make it to the finals!”

“…”

The spectators, reveling in the chaos, were thrilled by the ever more intense battles.

Before Jing Shaohe showed himself to be a Half-step Innate, most people believed Jing Yan could easily defeat him.

But now, their opinions had swiftly changed.

It was no wonder!

Everyone knew the terror of a Half-step Innate Martial Artist.

Even the Fourth Elder Zhao and others showed slight changes in their expressions.

The Jing Family had produced yet another Half-step Innate realm Martial Artist.

This Jing Shaohe also needed close attention because he could advance to the Innate realm at any moment.

For the three great families of Donglin City, the emergence of one more martial artist in the Innate realm from any family could significantly impact the overall situation.

Within the three great families, the number of Innate realm martial artists was limited.

Every additional Innate realm martial artist could tremendously boost the family’s collective strength.

“The Jing Family truly has an abundance of talents!”

“Exactly.

With talents like Jing Tianlong and Jing Ziqi, and now Jing Shaohe appearing, plus Jing Yan, although he had fallen from his realm before, it seems it won’t be long before he can return to the Innate realm.”

There was endless discussion in the guest seating area.

“Haha, it looks like the Jing Family will soon surpass the Lin Family!” laughed Fourth Elder Zhao Zhenshan.

Upon hearing this, Lin Shunyue, the Great Elder of the Lin Family who was attending the Jing Family’s grand competition, also had his expression tighten.

He coldly glanced at Zhao Zhenshan but said nothing.

Among the three great families of Donglin City, the Zhao Family was indisputably first, while the Lin Family, as the oldest of the three major families, had a profound heritage.

However, the Jing Family had risen in the last few decades.

Generally, the martial artists of Donglin City regarded the Jing Family as third.

Yet the rise of the Jing Family seemed to exceed many people’s expectations.

At this rate, it might not take long for the Jing Family to surpass the Lin Family.

Although the Jing Family and the Lin Family were allies, deep down, the Lin Family absolutely did not want to see the Jing Family surpass them.

At this moment, if Lin Shunyue could be happy, that would be strange indeed.

Lin Shunyue also knew that Zhao Zhenshan’s words were meant to stir up trouble.

Yet, he couldn’t let it go!

Thinking of the Jing Family’s talented individuals, Lin Shunyue felt he needed to call a family meeting to discuss this once he returned.

“Boom!”

On the platform, Jing Yan and Jing Shaohe both moved simultaneously.

Terrifying Primordial Energy burst forth from within their bodies, causing explosive splattering.

Especially Jing Shaohe’s Primordial Energy, a faint white mist, was visible to the naked eye.

All the spectators were greatly excited.

After all, the number of Half-step Innate Martial Artists was even rarer than those in the Innate realm.

How many of the Jing Family disciples had the chance to witness a battle between Half-step Innate Strong People?

Moreover, this battle involved Jing Yan, a Ninth Layer Heaven strong warrior, versus a Half-step Innate.

“Rumble!”

In front of Jing Shaohe, silver Sword Light condensed, with sword beams devouring all within, its momentum formidable.

“Long River Destruction Sword,” Jing Shaohe murmured softly.

This swordsmanship was also a kind of Upper Grade Martial Arts.

When unleashed by Jing Shaohe, its power was incomparably greater than when executed by an individual like Zhao Dingtian using Upper Grade Martial Arts.

Jing Shaohe made the slightest movement, and Jing Yan immediately sensed that Jing Shaohe had thoroughly mastered this Upper Grade Martial Arts.

That silver Sword Light, like a long silver river, rolled towards Jing Yan’s position with the force of thunderous might.

Around that Sword Light, one could see small sword beams wildly stirring the air, forming palm-sized vortices, utterly terrifying.

It was clear that Jing Shaohe had no intention of probing.

He had unleashed nearly his full strength in his first move.

In his eyes, Jing Yan simply wasn’t his opponent.

Thus, he couldn’t be bothered to probe and aimed to defeat Jing Yan outright.

Jing Yan’s expression was also devoid of any emotion, quite grave.

He clearly felt the overwhelming pressure.

Since his realm had fallen, this was the strongest opponent Jing Yan had encountered.

Even Li Tianfu paled in comparison to Jing Shaohe.

“Condensed Moon Three Waves!” Jing Yan didn’t dare to be careless.

He directly used the Condensed Moon Three Waves, a Mid-grade Martial Arts.

Although Condensed Moon Three Waves was only Mid-grade Martial Arts, after Jing Yan had repaired its flaws, its power was slightly higher than ordinary Upper Grade Martial Arts.

Black Sword Light instantly condensed into a three-layered sword screen.

The silver long river collided fiercely with the black sword screen.

“Bang bang bang!”

The martial arts of the two fighters, above the platform in this area, violently eroded and annihilated each other.

“Jing Shaohe’s Primordial Energy is incomparably thick and also mist-like.

Just talking about the amount of Primordial Energy, I am not inferior to him, perhaps even slightly superior.

But his mist-like Primordial Energy is more condensed and refined, giving him an absolute advantage in quality.”

“However, his martial arts has a fatal flaw,” Jing Yan’s eyes flickered.

If Jing Shaohe’s Long River Destruction Swordsmanship had no flaws, Jing Yan’s Condensed Moon Three Waves really wouldn’t be able to withstand it.

Unfortunately, there were not so many ifs.

Guided by the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill, after several exchanges, Jing Yan had discovered some flaws in the Long River Destruction Swordsmanship and used these weaknesses to forcibly break down the silver long river Sword Light from the inside.

“What?”

It was the first time Jing Shaohe showed a somewhat flustered expression.

No one knew better than he did about his current predicament, and no one understood better than he did that Jing Yan’s martial arts had already penetrated into the Long River Destruction Swordsmanship he was executing.

“How is this possible?” Jing Shaohe also couldn’t figure out why this was happening.

He didn’t know how Jing Yan did it.

Even if Jing Yan practiced Upper Grade Martial Arts, it shouldn’t be like this.

In fact, what Jing Yan was using was clearly the Mid-grade Martial Arts, Condensed Moon Three Waves.

He was supposed to have the advantage, but in reality, after a few exchanges, he ended up at a disadvantage.

Up to now, ordinary members of the Lu Family had not yet realized this.

However, the strong warriors of the Innate realm in the high platform could perceive the nuances.

Many people, including those in the guest seating area, were moved by this.

Could it be that Jing Yan!

Even the Half-step Innate Jing Shaohe wasn’t his match?
