A commotion erupted beneath the Demonstration Platform.
Shen Xuan from Cold Jade Peak and Lei Yaoyang from Celestial Thunder Peak—aren’t they rivals?
A dozen years ago, Shen Xuan made a bet with Lei Yaoyang to master the Thunder Escape Technique within a year.
He trampled Lei Yaoyang and Celestial Thunder Peak’s reputation underfoot, relentlessly crushing it.
And now, they’re facing off again?
Shen Xuan was equally speechless.
If you tell him there was no conspiracy, he’d absolutely not believe it!
Among over two hundred sect disciples in the Foundation Establishnt Realm participating in the tournant.
Yet he happens to confront Lei Yaoyang.
How could such coincidence occur!
Probability-wise, it’s barely a one-in-ten chance.
But then, it’s fine.
Last ti, Lei Yaoyang had his legs broken by Yun Chixin, the senior sister from Little Gu Peak.
Ultimately, it wasn’t as satisfying as personally doing it.
If not for fear of sect rules holding him accountable, he would’ve long wanted to teach Lei Yaoyang a lesson.
At least, beat him half to death and destroy his Dao heart.
If it could induce a heart demon in him, then all the better.
Revenge, even after thirty years, is never late for a gentleman!
Shen Xuan bead joyfully as he soared onto the Demonstration Platform.
Opposite him, Lei Yaoyang looked grave.
The look in his eyes was rather complex.
Anger, jealousy, and a hint of fear.
The Shen Xuan before him was an eighty-sothing Qi Cultivation Perfection loose cultivator thirty years ago.
In his eyes, an ant among ants.
A re flick of a finger could easily crush him.
Who would’ve thought, just thirty years later.
Shen Xuan has beco his mortal threat.
He deliberately set up a trap when they bet, causing him to lose face.
Even his fellow brothers from Celestial Thunder Peak blad him.
Later, Little Gu Peak’s senior sister Yun Chixin seized the opportunity to stir trouble.
Under the guise of a demonstration duel, broke his legs.
Though in the Foundation Establishnt Realm.
Injuries to the flesh could be restored to their original state within months of rest.
Yet the suffocating rage at the heart, always stifling his breath.
Shen Xuan gazed at Lei Yaoyang.
He suddenly smiled.
In his eyes, there was a faint hint of ridicule and disdain.
Even his salute was barely completed.
"Shen Xuan from Cold Jade Peak, greets Senior Brother Lei Yaoyang from Celestial Thunder Peak."
"I heard Senior Brother Lei’s Thunder Technique is profound, and you are Master Tianlei’s prized disciple, even participating in the Dao-Demon War exercise in advance as a sect Core Formation Seed."
"I’ve always been interested in Thunder Techniques and wish to seek Senior Brother Lei’s guidance."
"Senior Brother Lei, please!"
Shen Xuan’s words directly blocked Lei Yaoyang’s path to voluntarily concede.
He was different from Fan Changqing earlier.
Having already been listed as a sect Core Formation Seed.
If he avoids the fight now, voluntarily conceding.
It would undoubtedly bring sha to Celestial Thunder True Master.
Lei Yaoyang took a deep breath.
He tried his best to control his agitated emotions.
His eyes burned like fire, glaring at Shen Xuan.
As their eyes t, countless sparks collided.
"Since Junior Brother Shen sincerely seeks guidance, I, Lei, will let you witness the true Thunder Techniques!"
After speaking, Lei Yaoyang stepped back a few paces, his entire aura soaring trendously, and his Lifebound Magical Treasure, the Thunder Sound Sword, was released.
"Fine sword!"
Shen Xuan’s eyes lit up.
Using Celestial Thunder Peak’s Tier Three Thunder Sound Divine Bamboo as the main material, infused with nurous precious Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, its grade is extraordinary.
Though currently only a Middle Grade Thunder Attribute Flying Sword Treasure, if nurtured properly, it may have a chance to ascend to a Spiritual Artifact.
The Thunder Sound Sword body flickered with azure light, filled with a violent and wild Power of Thunder.
With Lei Yaoyang’s Spiritual Power infusion, the Thunder Sound Sword expanded to two zhang long, the thrilling crackling sound reverberating across the Demonstration Platform.
Shen Xuan chuckled, remaining calm and composed.
He knew Lei Yaoyang was building montum, preparing a big move.
Despite speaking nonchalantly, he was actually quite apprehensive.
He wouldn’t hold back.
"Senior Brother Lei, don’t rush, take your ti."
Shen Xuan said with a smile, "I’ve long wished to witness your Thunder Technique!"
"Junior Brother Shen, I, Lei, apologize!"
Lei Yaoyang’s face turned ashen, his robes fluttered, arcs of electricity flashed across his body, and even his hair stood up.
That was the manifestation of Thunder Spiritual Power operating at its peak.
He fixed his gaze on Shen Xuan.
With fingers like a sword, pointed at Shen Xuan.
"Swift!"
As if an invisible Spiritual Light flashed by.
Within Shen Xuan’s sight, the Thunder Sound Sword suddenly emitted a sharp sword cry, its tip aid at him from afar.
Subsequently, a Power of Thunder as thick as a child’s arm spewed out from the tip of the Thunder Sound Sword, its violent spiritual fluctuations distorting space.
In the next instant.
The Power of Thunder in a lightning speed, carrying a wild destructive aura, descended with an air of supremacy like a spear, stabbing down at Shen Xuan.
Its speed was extrely fast!
Intensity extrely fierce!
Shen Xuan’s Magic Robe involuntarily drifted backward.
To the astonishnt of those below the platform.
Shen Xuan seed intimidated by Lei Yaoyang’s Thunder Sound Sword aura.
Motionless in place, without any defensive maneuvers.
The fearso Power of Thunder directly struck Shen Xuan.
"Boom!"
The intense sound of thunder montarily echoed throughout the square.
The disciples below the platform were all rendered speechless.
No one could have imagined.
The sect-renowned inheritor of two lineages, the favorite to win, Shen Xuan, couldn’t withstand even a single move from Lei Yaoyang.
Standing still as the thunder descended.
"Not right!"
Soone shouted in alarm.
After the dazzling lightning glowed.
Slowly revealed Shen Xuan’s silhouette.
Still bearing a smile.
As if nothing happened.
Lei Yaoyang’s all-out strike, potent enough to annihilate any cultivator in the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishnt.
On Shen Xuan, it seed entirely ineffective.
Lei Yaoyang was likewise shocked beyond asure.
The scene before his eyes surpassed his imagination.
Shen Xuan stood there.
Doing nothing.
His all-out attack was incapable of harming him.
How could this be possible!
Could it be he’s utilizing a Thunder-Resistant Treasure Robe?
Lei Yaoyang knew that every disciple of Little Gu Peak had a peculiar Thunder-Resistant Treasure Robe.
Capable of completely isolating the damage from the Power of Thunder.
Hope rose in Lei Yaoyang’s heart.
He signaled his fellow brother below the platform.
His lips slightly moved, transmitting a ssage over.
The person understood and shouted loudly.
"Reporting to the True Master, Shen Xuan used a Thunder-Resistant Treasure Robe, violating the competition rules!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
The crowd below suddenly realized.
They had also heard that Little Gu Peak had secrets for refining Thunder Spirit Pearls.
Besides the Thunder-Attracting Array, there’s a kind of Thunder-Resistant Treasure Robe.
Which has miraculous effects against thunder damage.
No wonder Shen Xuan wasn’t afraid of Lei Yaoyang’s thunder attacks!
"Shut up!"
Chongxu True Master shouted angrily.
"Shen Xuan didn’t wear any defensive Spiritual Objects!"
Chongxu True Master had seen it clearly.
Shen Xuan entirely relied on his flesh body to withstand Lei Yaoyang’s thunder attacks.
The demonstration platform below fell into silence.
No one dared to question Chongxu True Master’s words.
The Sect disciples below looked towards Shen Xuan, all with uncertain expressions.
If there were no defensive Spiritual Objects involved.
This ant that Shen Xuan was directly receiving Lei Yaoyang’s thunder attacks with just his flesh body.
How could this be possible?
What an extraordinary monster!
The smile on Shen Xuan’s face grew wider.
"Brother Lei, don’t need to hold back."
"You can use more strength."
"I, Shen, can take it."
Lei Yaoyang stared intently at Shen Xuan.
The anger in his eyes seed ready to explode at any mont.
He couldn’t figure it out.
Why was Shen Xuan immune to his thunder attacks?
At this mont, he had no retreat.
He gritted his teeth and silently invoked a rarely used Forbidden Technique.
A stronger spiritual power fluctuation erupted from his body.
His aura surged to the Late Stage of Foundation Establishnt.
This Forbidden Technique could elevate a small realm in a short ti.
The power of the Thunder Technique increased by more than fifty percent.
Yet it couldn’t last long.
And it would damage the Dao Foundation Spirit Sea.
It was his trump card for survival.
Opposite, a trace of surprise appeared in Shen Xuan’s eyes.
Lei Yaoyang was using a Secret Technique that squeezed potential?
At this mont, he was not panicked.
The Absolute Thunder Dao Body at Great Success was more than enough to resist the majority of Foundation Establishnt Realm thunder damage.
Moreover, he himself had also cultivated Thunder Techniques.
His control over Thunder Spiritual Power was even greater than Lei Yaoyang’s.
A great wind rose.
The Thunder Sound Sword that Lei Yaoyang summoned, flickered with azure thunder, and once again swiftly stabbed forward.
But this ti, it wasn’t just the power of thunder.
It was the Thunder Sound Sword itself.
Lei Yaoyang’s face was flushed red.
Exerting all his strength, he held the Thunder Sound Sword with both hands, achieving Human Sword Unity, transforming into a bolt of lightning, and swiftly stabbed towards Shen Xuan.
Lei Yaoyang had used up all his brute force.
Leaving no room for reserve.
Even Chongxu True Master beside him couldn’t help but exclaim.
Evidently, Lei Yaoyang’s attack caught Chongxu True Master’s attention.
However.
An even more astonishing scene unfolded.
Shen Xuan remained unmoved.
He didn’t summon any Defensive Magical Treasure.
His smile remained unchanged.
He reached out his right hand towards the Thunder Sound Sword.
Amidst the spiritual light fluctuations, Shen Xuan’s index and middle fingers gently pinched.
In a burst of thunderous explosions, Shen Xuan’s two fingers steadily clamped onto the mighty Thunder Sound Sword.
Shen Xuan’s figure stood immovable, as solid as Mount Tai.
Lei Yaoyang stood in place, holding the sword with both hands, but unable to advance even an inch.
The Thunder Roar Sword emitted the sound of lantation.
Shen Xuan slowly swept his gaze towards Lei Yaoyang.
His eyes still carried a deep sense of disdain.
It seed to ask, is that it?
"Annoying!"
Suddenly, as if the sword’s sound had irritated him, Shen Xuan forcefully used his fingers.
With a "snap" sound.
The middle-grade magical treasure, Thunder Sound Sword, was directly pinched off by him by an inch.
Then, under the watchful eyes of all.
Shen Xuan tossed the broken inch of the Thunder Sound Sword tip into his mouth and started chewing.
It crunched loudly.
Across, Lei Yaoyang spat a mouthful of fresh blood.
His face turned deathly pale.
With his Lifebound Magical Treasure badly damaged, Lei Yaoyang’s Divine Soul suffered a backlash, his realm cultivation showing signs of instability.
By the ti Shen Xuan chewed and refined the inch of the Thunder Sound Sword tip, Lei Yaoyang’s realm cultivation fell from the fifth layer of Foundation Establishnt directly to the fourth.
"Shen Xuan wins!"
Chongxu True Master tily announced the result of the match.
Disciples of the Celestial Thunder Peak lineage hurried forward to support Lei Yaoyang off the stage.
The sect disciples watching below all gasped in awe.
Being a hot favorite for winning, and a direct disciple of both lineages, Shen Xuan defeating Lei Yaoyang was within everyone’s expectations.
However, to win so easily, it was beyond anyone’s expectations.
Even with all his might, Lei Yaoyang could not inflict a trace of harm upon Shen Xuan.
It defied all logic!
More bizarrely.
Shen Xuan actually clamped Lei Yaoyang’s middle-grade thunder attribute flying sword treasure with his bare hands.
And then tossed the most refined sword tip into his mouth, chewing and swallowing it.
What kind of Daoist Technique is this?
They had never heard of such a thing!
Even Chongxu True Master slightly furrowed his brow.
He could clearly see that what Shen Xuan used was not a proper Daoist Technique.
It was purely physical strength.
Evidently, he had succeeded in Body Refining.
Not only adept in Water Technique, Ice Technique, and Thunder Technique.
He also cultivated a top-tier Body Refining Technique.
Possessing physical strength far surpassing other Foundation Establishnt cultivators.
Such a prodigious talent, yet he initially failed the sect’s test!
It truly benefited Master Cold Jade.
As for Master Gu Feng.
It was well known she was rely nominal.
Chongxu True Master sighed slightly in his heart.
Ultimately, Shen Xuan wasn’t an Array Master and had no connection with him, Chongxu True Master.
Shen Xuan’s future Dao path was limitless!
It was no wonder the Sect Leader personally favored him as a candidate for Core Formation Seed preparation!
He glanced sympathetically at the Golden Core direct disciples in preparation.
Next, these sect prodigies were all destined to beco the backdrop, stepping stones for Shen Xuan!
