Chapter 84 Shocking Confrontation
Xu Nian's momentum surged in an instant, and two incredibly potent forces coiled around his body like swimming dragons, their ferocious aura as if a demon had stepped out from the depths of the Dark Abyss.
When they looked at the other side, Dugu Jingcheng also bore an aura that made hearts tremble.
He was seen holding a long sword with Sword Qi shooting to the sky, his entire being seemingly fused with the sword in his hands, exuding sharpness throughout his body.
Man and Sword as One, Sword Intent surged.
The audience outside the field saw this scene, all showing expressions of surprise.
At this moment, the momentum displayed by these two men was far above their own, and even some two-star, or even three-star members of the Silver Moon Battle Sect couldn't compare to these two before them.
"What a terrifying aura, I had no idea that one at the Star Realm could unleash such formidable power," Yuu Fei couldn't help but remark.
Hearing this, Chen Xifeng couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face.
In fact, he had made thorough preparations for this trial, and his strength had seen a tremendous breakthrough.
Originally, he thought that even if he couldn't defeat Dugu Jingcheng, he could at least beat Lin Han and take the second place ranking.
But now, even if he defeated Lin Han, he would still only be in third place, because these two fellows in front of him were simply too strong; just the aura they had unleashed at this moment was enough to drain him of any desire to fight.
"Two freaks!" Chen Xifeng couldn't help but exclaim.
The rest of the crowd nodded in agreement.
"Buzz!"
While the audience was marveling at the exceptional talents of Xu Nian and Dugu Jingcheng, the two's momentum had reached its peak.
When their momentum clashed, it actually formed two distinct gusts of wind, clearly demarcated.
"This move I'm about to use is one I've realized on my own, not cultivated from any Sword Techniques. As for its power, even I cannot control it, so Junior Brother Xu, you'd better be careful," Dugu Jingcheng said, looking towards Xu Nian.
"Haha, likewise, my move is also self-created, and its power is just as uncontrollable. If you come out of this move missing an arm or a leg, Senior Brother Dugu, don't blame me for being merciless," Xu Nian laughed heartily.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Dugu Jingcheng also revealed a smile, the sword's edge in his hands flowing with light, as a dazzling radiance burst forth from the long sword.
Light Attribute?
The crowd was shocked, they had not expected that the sword technique Dugu Jingcheng had comprehended was of the Light Attribute.
Like the Dark Attribute, the Light Attribute was incredibly rare, and Combat Techniques and Combat Skills of these two attributes were exceedingly scarce, at least Qinglin Academy did not have them. However, the power of these attributes was immensely formidable.
Thus, when they saw that Dugu Jingcheng had actually comprehended a Light Attribute sword technique, even Leng Yanran on the high platform showed a look of surprise.
Without a teacher, to have comprehended a Light Attribute Sword Technique, Dugu Jingcheng's accomplishments in swordsmanship could truly be described as terrifying.
Xu Nian was also somewhat surprised. A Light Attribute Sword Technique—he was seeing it for the first time as well. At the moment, he could clearly sense the terrible power bursting forth from the long sword in Dugu Jingcheng's hands, and the pulsing light was like a trembling wave.
"Interesting!" A light smile crept over the corners of Xu Nian's mouth, and a flicker of madness flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Then, a scene that shocked everyone present unfolded—those two small dragons, one thunder and one fire, coiling around Xu Nian, gradually merged together, creating a pulsing purple Thunder Fire Power that made hearts palpitate.
With the formation of this purple thunder fire power, the air around instantly turned wild, and the dancing flames contained extremely terrifying energy, making even the members of the Silver Moon Battle Sect feel frightened.
"Damn, am I seeing things? Thunder and flame can merge?" The spectators outside the field also let out shouts of complete astonishment.
Even Leng Yanran stood up from her seat, her eyes fixedly staring at Xu Nian.
Madness, utter madness!
This fusion of two terrifying forces could explode with the slightest mishap, and if it did, the first to be obliterated would undoubtedly be Xu Nian, so her heart nearly stopped when Xu Nian made this move.
Of course, Xu Nian was well aware of how crazy his actions were, as Emperor Ye Tian had already warned him.
The reason he dared to play with these forces was that he had a bit of confidence in his heart.
The thunder and flame that he had formed weren't actually real thunder and flame, but Gang Qi with the attribute of thunder and Gang Qi with the attribute of flame.
Normally, these two attributes of power can indeed not be merged; they would explode instantly upon contact. However, Xu Nian had something others did not—a Nether Dragon Qi contained within his Gang Qi.
Nether Dragon Qi has one characteristic—that is, it can accommodate all attributes of Gang Qi. As long as Xu Nian controlled the two attributes of Gang Qi to a balance point, he could merge the two forces into a new kind of Gang Qi.
Of course, achieving this balance of forces also required an extremely strong control over Gang Qi, something that others couldn't accomplish even if they possessed Nether Dragon Qi.
"Buzz!"
The terrifying purple thunder fire power covered the white bone in Xu Nian's hand, sending out an extremely dazzling yet eerie glow that made onlookers' hearts tremble.
Battle Emperor-level Beast Bones are indeed hardy; not even Xu Nian's Xuan Iron Sword might be able to bear such terrifying power.
"Take this!" Xu Nian bellowed, leaping up and swinging the bone imbued with thunder fire power, ferociously smashing it toward Dugu Jingcheng.
Dugu Jingcheng also had a flash of determination in his eyes, his long sword swung, and a sword stroke cleaved out, instantly emitting a dazzling light, colliding directly with Xu Nian's bone.
"Boom!"
A heaven-shaking boom sounded, a terrifying wave of energy dispersion swept outward like ripples, the fierce wind raging wildly around, forcing Chen Xifeng and others to involuntarily take several steps backward, unable to open their eyes.
Both Dugu Jingcheng and Xu Nian were sent flying by this terrifying blast of energy. Your journey continues at empire
"Who won in the end?" The audience outside, seeing both contenders fallen and not getting up, was filled with tension.
As for people like Chen Xifeng, they stood with a blank gaze, their eyes filled with shock. Was that commotion really from a battle between two Star Realm powerhouses?
Dugu Jingcheng lay on the ground, his body already covered with multiple bloodstains. He struggled to stand, but found it was impossible, and then saw that his long sword had been reduced to just the hilt.
The crowd witnessing this scene inhaled a breath of cold air.
It was their first time seeing Dugu Jingcheng injured to such a degree.
Turning to the other side, a figure somehow staggered to its feet, with clothes torn to shreds and hair disheveled, looking extremely wretched.
Yet the appearance of this figure caused the outside audience to shout out in complete astonishment.
Xu Nian had won; he had defeated Dugu Jingcheng and became the number one person in the Academy!
