He heard that Ling Tong and Ling Chen were having a duel here, so he rushed over imdiately, waiting to see Ling Chen suffering a humiliating defeat, and being stepped on.
At this mont, on the platform, Ling Chen and Ling Tong had already reached a critical stage in their battle. Ling Tong was frantically launching sword qi to bombard Ling Chen's Sword Formation, much like a violent storm.
However, under such an assault, the Sword Formation appeared to be incredibly sturdy. Instead, observant individuals noticed that when Ling Tong's sword qi was shattered, part of the energy was absorbed into the Sword Formation, enhancing its power.
"Break!"
Suddenly, a cold light shot out from Ling Tong's eyes, and the blue-black Treasure Sword in his hand abruptly flew out, fiercely shooting towards Ling Chen!
Slash!
It was like the sound of cloth being torn; the Sword Formation of Ling Chen suddenly had a large hole pierced through it.
In an instant, cracks spread throughout the entire Sword Formation.
Yet Ling Chen seed to have anticipated this result. With a wave of his palm, the collapsing Sword Formation shot out dozens of sword qi, piercing back at Ling Tong.
His expression changed. Ling Tong quickly retreated to evade, but during the retreat, he was still hit by several sword qi, tearing into him and leaving bloody wounds.
"Ling Tong was actually counterattacked."
The expressions of many Ling family disciples turned to surprise, as Ling Tong's aggressive and fierce attack was unexpectedly countered first by Ling Chen.
At this mont, Ling Tong also realized what had happened. He glanced at the wounds on his body, and his face beca unusually solemn, with his initial contempt being completely retracted. He then took a deep breath, slowly raised the blue-black Treasure Sword in his hands, but his complexion quietly turned a bit pale.
Buzz buzz!
As pallor showed on his face, the blue-black Treasure Sword in his hand started to tremble violently. The blue light began to constrict eerily, and on the surface of the blue light, fine cracks appeared. The strands of blue light seed to rge into Ling Tong's body, followed by an extrely sharp aura emitting from his body, with the montum of Unity of Human and Sword.
"Is this... 36 Pulse Sword Waves?"
The Ling family disciples on the platform saw this scene, their expressions changed, as they clearly recognized the martial arts Ling Tong was exerting.
"36 Pulse Sword Waves."
Ling Chen's mind was also stirred, not expecting to see one of the powerful, unconventional Swordsmanship techniques Ling Xue ntioned to him so soon.
As a wave of exclamations spread across the platform, Ling Tong suddenly looked up, and then stabbed the blue-black Treasure Sword into the ground. An icy voice burst out from his mouth.
"Shenting ridian Sword Wave!"
"Taiyang ridian Sword Wave!"
As his shout fell, from two ridian and acupoint positions on Ling Tong's body, two sword waves suddenly shot out, breaking through the void with lightning speed, heading straight for Ling Chen.
The sword waves moved at an astonishing speed, but Ling Chen's response was not slow either. With the Longquan Sword in his hands, he blocked repeatedly, and the ear-piercing clang, clang sounds echoed as Ling Chen's body was straightly pushed back tens of ters, dragging a noticeable mark on the platform.
Crack!
After blocking the two sword waves, the Longquan Sword in Ling Chen's hand suddenly developed a fatal crack and then shattered, splitting into two, with one half falling to the ground.
"Ling Yu's Longquan Sword broke."
"The Longquan Sword was never considered a formidable weapon, taking two hits from Ling Tong's full-powered 36 Pulse Sword Waves; it collapsing is quite normal."
"This spells the end for Ling Yu, with his sword broken, isn't defeat inevitable?"
So Ling family disciples who initially had high hopes for Ling Chen were now worried for him.
Ling Chen's situation was already precarious.
Witnessing this scene, many people thought so but felt no ridicule. Ling Chen was able, as a newcor, to force Ling Tong to unleash the 36 Pulse Sword Waves, which was quite an achievent.
"Haha, Ling Yu, with your broken sword and ruined form, how can you continue fighting ? Your defeat is certain!"
Ling Tong laughed heartily, exuding imnse satisfaction.
"Not necessarily."
Ling Chen's eyes remained calm. He only continuously infused True Qi into the Broken Sword, as astonishing thunderstorms flickered across the Broken Sword.
Swoosh!
The sound of wind rose, and a Sword Light burst out from it, then with a remarkable speed, flashed straight in front of Ling Tong.
"Courting death!"
Seeing Ling Chen advance instead of retreating, Ling Tong sneered coldly. He summoned True Qi, his body trembled, and three more sword waves shot out from his body.
"Taiyuan ridian Sword Wave!"
"Shaoyin ridian Sword Wave!"
"Tianchi ridian Sword Wave!"
Three sword waves shot forth, all aiming at Ling Chen.
Releasing three ridian sword waves continuously was already Ling Tong's limit.
Using such moves to defeat Ling Chen with a broken sword was easy, and to ensure foolproof victory, he verged on using the ultimate kill tactics to prevent Ling Chen's rebound, utterly deciding Ling Chen's fate.
Almost ignoring those three sword waves entirely, Ling Chen's Broken Sword still swung forward along its predetermined trajectory. At the sa ti, the broken part of the Longquan Sword emitted a flare of light, compensating the fracture, seemingly slashing out as if complete.
Explosive fiery waves and lightning interwove together, Ling Chen slashed out a powerful sword attack, combining two Martial Arts True anings, the Blazing Thunder Cut.
Boom boom boom!
Three sword waves shattered upon imdiate contact with Ling Chen's sword qi, dissipating like ripples in water.
"What?"
Ling Tong's pupils suddenly contracted, watching the three sword waves disintegrate. The remaining Sword Light, like lightning, struck Ling Tong, instantly blasting him away, and his clothes in front turned to ashes. He staggered back several dozen steps before barely steadying himself.
As Ling Tong stabilized his clumsy form, the platform fell into a silence, with many Ling family disciples exchanging glances, as they subtly inhaled a breath of cold air.
Ling Chen actually shattered Ling Tong's 36 Pulse Sword Waves with a broken Longquan Sword?!
As fellow Ling family disciples, they were well aware of the strength of the 36 Pulse Sword Waves. Many direct lineal descendants of the Ling family had learned this sword technique and understood its power well. Ling Tong's accomplishnts with the 36 Pulse Sword Waves were greater than most of theirs, yet now defeated by Ling Chen's single strike.
Watching Ling Chen halt in the field, refraining from further attacks, everyone knew that the outco of this sparring had been decided.
The light on Ling Chen's Broken Sword dissipated after cultivation, and he didn't pursue a kill; Ling Tong wasn't a life-and-death enemy in front of him, so there was no need for lethal action.
Therefore, after repelling Ling Tong, Ling Chen also looked up and cupped his hands towards Ling Tong in the distance, softly saying, "Ling Tong brother, I concede!"
