Chapter 723: I’ll Kill You in One Strike

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Boom!

The sword and saber collided. A colorful divine light instantly exploded out. It was as if the sky had exploded.

Just the True Energy from this attack made the faces of the guests change.

However, in the next moment, an array formation appeared on the square, sealing the entire space and blocking the strong wind and energy force that was sweeping outward.

One by one, special runes that exuded a mysterious power flowed across the surface of the barrier.

After destroying the sweeping blade intent of the Life Ender with one strike, Chu Yunfan did not stop. With a leap, he immediately charged toward Jiang Lingxiao.

Jiang Lingxiao also charged toward Chu Yunfan. He was like an eagle striking the sky, heading straight in Chu Yunfan’s direction.

The two of them had reached a shocking level in their grasp of battle opportunities. It was beyond the imagination of an ordinary person.

Everyone watched in anticipation. In just a short moment, Jiang Lingxiao had flown through the air. He slashed out with his saber and his entire arm started to shake violently. His entire body was enveloped by the saber intent of the Life Ender.

Jiang Lingxiao’s aura was so strong that it caused the robes on his body to flutter. It was so intense that it was frightening.

Martial artists would not choose to jump unless it was absolutely necessary. However, Jiang Lingxiao was different. He used the Thousand Pound Drop technique. Although it was a surprise attack from mid-air, not only did his strength not weaken, but on the contrary, it increased even further.

Chu Yunfan roared, “World Overlord, Sky Sword!”

With a sweep of his sword, he almost cut the whole sky in half.

Boom!

The two sides collided again.

The whole process was so fast that many did not even have time to think. They were dazzled and shocked. There were few people of their age who could compare to these two.

They were indeed powerful.

Bam!

Bam!

Bam!

The sword and saber kept clashing in mid-air. The speed of both sides was terrifying and left everyone stunned. As they clashed, the entire ground shook.

The ground seemed to be paved with marble, but in fact, it was an illusion. It was actually paved with the most advanced alloy. Even in the face of a missile’s surprise attack, it would not change in appearance.

“They’re so strong. If they weren’t sealed off by the barrier, the consequences would be unimaginable.”

Many people widened their eyes and poured all their Ture Energy into their eyes. Otherwise, they would not be able to keep up with the battle.

Slowly, everyone’s faces changed as they watched. Not only did the aura of the two not weaken, but instead, it became stronger which every step they took.

“The Life Ender is the Jiang family’s supreme killing technique. With every strike, it accumulates more power. As the killing intent it absorbs becomes stronger, it will become more and more terrifying.”

“But what kind of sword technique is Chu Yunfan using? Logically speaking, most martial skills could be used once before their user will be exhausted. However, it feels like this technique of his becomes stronger with every move he makes.”

As the crowd watched, they widen their eyes in disbelief.

If it was said that the Life Ender got stronger the more one fought, they could understand it. But the sword technique that Chu Yunfan displayed also had this quality. No matter how terrifying the technique Jiang Lingxiao displayed was, it was as if it could be firmly suppressed.

Boom!

The two sides once again crossed paths. The two stood and looked at each other from afar. They had no intention of going any further.

The crowd was shocked to find that Chu Yunfan and Jiang Lingxiao seemed to be completely unaffected by that intense battle. They were not even winded.

“Chu Yunfan, you’re pretty good. With your second-level Innate cultivation, you’re actually able to hold out until now.”

Jiang Lingxiao spoke slowly, but his words shocked everyone.

Some of the high-leveled Innate Stage experts present could barely discern Chu Yunfan’s cultivation level. But to the others, Chu Yunfan’s level was an absolute mystery. Seeing that Chu Yunfan was able to contend with Jiang Lingxiao up to this point, they felt that the strength of the two sides was about the same.

However, now that Jiang Lingxiao had poked a hole through this window paper, they finally knew that Chu Yunfan was only at the second level of the Innate Stage.

From the looks of it, Jiang Lingxiao was at least at the fifth level of the Innate Stage. Considering this, Chu Yunfan’s combat strength was shocking.

Every level of the Innate Stage was very different. It was almost impossible to contend against someone who was of a higher level unless one had extraordinary talent. But even if they had extraordinary talent, it was only enough to skip one level. No one had ever heard of someone being able to fight someone of a higher level.

Chu Yunfan was simply a monster, especially since Jiang Lingxiao was not an ordinary person. With his talent, no one in the same realm could defeat Jiang Lingxiao. But now, he was actually forced to a draw by Chu Yunfan who was of a lower level than him.

“This is just the beginning. Jiang Lingxiao, that was just a warm-up. If you don’t show me some real ability, you will die today,” Chu Yunfan held up the Ju Que and said slowly.

“Arrogant.” Jiang Lingxiao sneered. “Since you’re in a hurry to die, then I’ll grant you your wish.”

His eyes became colder and colder, but this time, he was not in a hurry to charge forward.

Boom!

Jiang Lingxiao took a step forward, but his aura was released crazily. This step caused the entire ground to tremble.

Boom!

Jiang Lingxiao took another step forward, and his aura increased by another level.

One step after another, he took seven steps with a grave look on his face. The Jiang Lingxiao’s aura had broken through the fifth level of the Innate Stage and then rushed into the sixth level.

“It’s the sixth level of the Innate Stage! Jiang Lingxiao has stepped into the sixth level!” a guest shouted as their eyes glinted.

Everyone was instantly shocked. Jiang Lingxiao had actually stepped into the sixth level of the Innate Stage. He was only one step away from the upper stage of the Innate Stage—the seventh level.

He was only a little over twenty years old, yet he already had this level of cultivation. His future might really be like what many people had speculated—boundless.

“The true Life Ender has erupted. Every step he takes is filled with killing intent. Chu Yunfan allowing him to condense his killing intent is his biggest mistake!” someone said loudly.

“Chu Yunfan, you actually dared to allow me to condense my saber intent. This will be the worst decision you’ve ever made in your life. I’ll cut you down with one strike.”

Jiang Lingxiao’s eyes became old and ruthless. It was as if a terrifying power was brewing in his body and was about to erupt.

With that said, he made his move and slashed out with his saber.
