Chapter 439: Chapter 115: The Might of Sword Intent!
Bang!
Hua Jingyang stomped down, exploding the airflow beneath his foot and halting his backward slide. He swallowed the surging blood in his throat.
After being forced back by Luo Chengâs punch, his face showed little surprise.
That attack was merely a probe.
Luo Cheng was able to defeat Liu Yifeng, who had reached the Third Layer Peak of the Awakening Vein Realm.
If he didnât have at least this level of strength, it would be too disappointing!
Raising his gaze toward Luo Cheng, Hua Jingyangâs eyes gradually grew sharper.
In the next momentâ
Boom!
A terrifying aura erupted, soaring into the sky and encompassing all directions!
The air rippled like water, wave after wave, and everyone present felt an oppressive heatwave, barreling toward them!
Hua Jingyangâs black hair danced wildly as scorching heat surged around him.
Behind him appeared a massive Flame Golden Toad, as large as a house, its entire body engulfed in blazing flames!
Within the Flame Golden Toad, ten luminous stars radiated brilliantly, its formidable aura causing the air to tremble.
âThis is Hua Jingyangâs Ten-star Spiritual Martial Soul! Such domineering presence!â
Upon seeing the Flame Golden Toad, the eyes of many Outer Disciples burned with awe, shock, and envy.
Even Chen Lingyu and the others, who had witnessed it before, struggled to remain composed.
Ten-star Spiritual Martial Soul, a Heavenly Gifted Spirit!
Those who awaken a Spiritual Martial Soul have the potential to become kings or saints. They are one in a million and are considered geniuses destined for extraordinary achievements, worthy of admiration!
Swish!
As his Spiritual Martial Soul was unleashed, Hua Jingyangâs Essence Energy surged, his aura climbing step by step. He returned to the fragmented hilltop in one leap, his upright figure giving off an illusion of surpassing even a towering mountain as he looked down at Luo Cheng:
âLuo Cheng, it seems youâve made significant progress recently. Unfortunately, no matter how much youâve improved, today you will undoubtedly lose!â
âIs that so?â
Luo Cheng smirked, lightly flicking his thumb, and the Blood Edge Sword instantly unsheathed. His aura shot out like the blade itself, aiming straight at the lofty Hua Jingyang:
âUse your ultimate moves and Martial Soul Divine Powers that enhance your combat strength. Iâll make you lose convincingly!â
âYouâre far too arrogant!â
Hua Jingyangâs expression darkened abruptly. His body trembled, and his blazing, fiery Essence Energy erupted, flooding the heavens. His right hand, as if forged iron-hot, reached out toward Luo Cheng, unleashing a devastating killing technique!
âFlame Sky Split!â
Pop⊠pop⊠popâŠ
With one grasp, flames surged wildly throughout the space, forming a massive fireball centered around Luo Cheng. The surrounding area quaked ferociously, as if it could explode at any moment!
During the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, Luo Cheng had already faced Hua Jingyangâs killing move.
At that time, he could only seek out flaws and avoid the blast radius!
But today, there was no need to dodge anymore!
âBreak!â
A sharp light flickered in Luo Chengâs eyes as he casually swung the Blood Edge Sword, executing the Heavenly Fall Second Form Cloud Stabilization!
Shing!
Sharp sword qi scattered chaotically, slicing the fiery sphere into tatters. It deflated like a punctured ball, its imposing might vanishing with a pop, dissipating into thin air!
âNow itâs my turn!â
After breaking Hua Jingyangâs killing move with one sword, the Blood Edge Sword in Luo Chengâs hand hummed vibrantly. Three layers of sword intent coursed along the blade and extended outward, tearing open a clear fissure in the void.
Man becomes the sword!
Will becomes the sword!
Crack!
Thunder sounded as a dazzling bolt of lightning slashed toward Hua Jingyang at incredible speed, leaving behind a pitch-black vacuum corridor as its trail!
âSword Intent! He has reached at least the Third Layer of Sword Intent!â
Ji Dongyue, who had previously seemed relaxed, gasped sharply, rage bubbling within him!
He had only heard rumors of Luo Chengâs abnormally strong physique and had specifically advised Hua Jingyang to avoid close combat with him.
But no one had mentioned Luo Cheng had comprehended Sword Intent!
How could a failure who awakened a Wasted Martial Soul, at such a young age, possibly grasp Sword Intent!
So thatâs how it is!
Seeing the unconcerned expressions of the Supreme Elder Qingkui and others, Ji Dongyueâs emotions spiraled into hysteria, his eyes fixed on Luo Cheng, desperately hoping Hua Jingyang would turn the tide and defeat Luo Cheng.
If not, today he wouldnât just lose face; he would also lose two Purple Swirl Essence Pills!
What!
Hua Jingyang was equally shocked.
The piercing sword qi coming at him filled him with inexplicable dread, causing his skin to prickle and his hair to stand on end!
Deep within, he instinctively wanted to flee.
But his inner pride forbade him from retreating!
How could a failure with a Wasted Martial SoulâŠ
have any right to make him back down!
Hua Jingyangâs gaze grew solemn as Essence Energy erupted from his entire body, making him appear as though standing within a raging firestorm, unleashing yet another killing move!
âDomineering Flame Qianqiu!â
Boom!
Thundering flames in the form of fist power, resembling a falling fiery meteor, collided fiercely with Luo Chengâs lightning sword strike.
Crack!
Shockwaves rippled through the air in tangible waves.
Under the stunned gazes of the crowd, in mere moments, half of the hilltop was obliteratedâthe grass, trees, and rocks reduced to powder!
Shhkk!
The sound of fabric being shredded echoed.
Under the keen sword qi carrying the Third Layer of Sword Intent, Hua Jingyangâs ferocious fist power only held for an instant before being pierced through.
Residual sword qi tore through the void and crashed into Hua Jingyangâs chest, sending him flying!
Witnessing the scene, the disciples of Xuanyuan Sect were immediately fired up.
Especially the Outer Disciples and servant disciples with ordinary talent.
Xuanyuan Sect had been weaker in recent years, forcing them to lower their heads when encountering disciples of Fierce Cloud Sect.
Watching Luo Cheng dominate the Fierce Cloud Sect prodigy in combat filled their eyes with excitement!
Cough!
Hua Jingyang steadied himself with difficulty, coughing up blood uncontrollably.
His gaze turned to Luo Cheng, filled with disbelief:
âThird Layer Sword Intent! How could you have comprehended Third Layer Sword Intent!â
He distinctly recalled that during the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, Luo Chengâs Sword Dao Realm had just reached Human Sword Integration High-level!
How could it have progressed to the Third Layer Sword Intent so quickly!
Even though the truth was before him, Hua Jingyang found it hard to accept, yet impossible to deny!
Bi Qiushui, Luoxia Sectâs Outer Sect Great Elder, let out a bitter laugh.
She completely understood Hua Jingyangâs emotions in this moment.
Buzz!
Luo Cheng flicked his Blood Edge Sword and looked at Hua Jingyang with an indifferent gaze:
âAdmit defeat. You couldnât defeat me during the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, and you wonât defeat me now.â
Hua Jingyangâs face twisted as he chuckled darkly:
âHa! Admit defeat? Youâve grasped Third Layer Sword Intent, but so what? That sword strike didnât defeat me, so the one who will lose is undoubtedly you!â
Hua Jingyang understood deeply how important this battle was for him.
Only by stepping past Luo Cheng could his future unfold as a smooth, limitless path!
He couldnât lose! He wouldnât lose! He could never admit defeat!
âGolden Toad Burning Body!â
With a resonating shout, Hua Jingyang finally played his strongest card.
The Flame Golden Toadâs eyes flared brightly as raging crimson flames spewed from its massive maw, igniting Hua Jingyangâs entire Essence Energy!
Boom!
Fiery light wrecked havoc, and the wild flames soaring from Hua Jingyang wrapped around him completely. Resembling a war god bathed in flames, he ascended into the sky, charging straight at Luo Cheng with an overwhelming strike.
âFall! Domineering Flame Qianqiu!â
Rumble!
Layer upon layer of fiery palm power descended toward Luo Cheng, crushing all in its path and tearing through the void!
âIf you refuse to surrender, then Iâll have to make you lie down!â
Luo Cheng shook his head. With Ji Dongyue, a True Master Level expert, present, he couldnât go for a killing strike. He had held back three layers of force earlier, hoping Hua Jingyang would retreat on his own.
But if Hua Jingyang remained stubborn and unyielding, then there was no helping it!
âDivine Wind Absolute Kill!â
Luo Chengâs expression remained steady, his sword intent pushed to its peak. A phantom sword shadow rose from his being, slicing horizontally with one strike.
In the eerie calm that followed, unwaveringly sharp sword qi converged, linking end to end to form a roaring Sword Qi Tornado that swept forth.
Rumble!
With sword intent empowering the Divine Wind Absolute Kill, it showed unparalleled sharpness. Hua Jingyangâs fiery fist power broke down layer by layer under its relentless advance, yet remained staggeringly cohesive!
âWhat kind of sword skill is this?! Why is it so indestructible!â
Panic surged in Hua Jingyangâs heart as his Essence Energy and Earth Evil True Fire drained rapidly, his inner voice roaring frantically.
Wind surged and clouds billowed. The Divine Wind Absolute Kill, a strike perfectly merging the first two forms of the Heavenly Fall Sword Technique, already excelled in prolonged power and versatile transformations. With sword intent amplifying it, its structure became even more stable and difficult to destroy!
Boom!
As the Sword Qi Tornado cut relentlessly, the fiery meteor-like fist power finally reached its limit, completely pierced through!
Residual sword qi collided against Hua Jingyangâs chest, propelling him backward like a shooting star. Blood spewed furiously!
Accompanied by a deafening crash, Hua Jingyangâs body slammed into a mountain, causing it to collapse. Amid the rubble, a faint human-shaped fissure could be seen!
