Luo Lie stood with his spear, the five huge Fla Pythons extending from his back continuously spat fiery tongues. Wisps of red fla rose around him, creating an astounding aura.
"Broken Fire Spear thod..."
This was the first ti Luo Feng had seen such a peculiar Martial Arts style. Each of these five Fla Pythons exuded a presence in no way inferior to that of a Martial Artist at the first level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm, which was rather eerie.
Luo Feng studied Luo Lie, a fleeting look of interest in his eyes, and said casually, "Your stance is quite impressive. I just hope it’s not all for show."
"Hmph, let’s see how long you can keep up your bravado!"
Luo Lie, enclosed by the five Fla Pythons, seed to be in the midst of a fireball, infinite rage burning in his eyes.
Cultivating five Broken Fire Fla Pythons was his greatest trump card, originally intended for the contest for Martial Champion. However, he hadn’t expected Luo Feng to be so strong, forcing him to reveal it prematurely.
Luo Lie wasn’t overly concerned about this. As long as he killed everyone here, no one would know his secret.
A murderous glint flashed in his eyes. The fiery light on Luo Lie’s body surged, virtually boiling the surrounding lake water.
"Fla Python Reaching The Sky!"
Luo Lie roared, holding his spear with both hands, and thrust it skyward.
Instantly, the five Fla Pythons behind him hissed and whistled, shooting out with the spear’s montum.
The five Fla Pythons rged with the Fierce Gold Spear, forming a crimson spear shadow over three ters in diater that spiraled with deadly intent.
BOOM!
The mont the spear shadow appeared, a violent shockwave erupted, causing the surrounding lake water to roil and a massive undercurrent to spread far and wide.
"Luo Feng..."
Feeling the horrifying power of the spear shadow, Bing Ruolan pressed her lips together tightly, her right hand subconsciously gripping He Qin’s left wrist.
Feeling the painful grip on her wrist, He Qin slowly exhaled, her gaze fixed on Luo Feng. Her own clenched hands were cold with nervous sweat.
Standing amidst the raging waves, Luo Feng’s figure stood unmoving, a cold smirk playing on his lips.
"Break!"
A massive red Saber Qi erupted from the Rage Fla Knife, cleaving through the air.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM...
The massive Saber Qi parted the turbulent water and t the attack with a sound like rolling thunder.
BOOM!
The Saber Qi ruthlessly clashed with the fiery spear shadow, erupting into a pillar of fire that shot skyward. Massive whirlpools ford and vanished in quick succession.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH...
The surrounding rapids surged, making He Qin and the others unsteady. They were forced to fully stabilize their Protective Gang Energy.
A mont later, the flas dissipated, and they could clearly see the situation.
"He blocked it!"
Xue Fei’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Amidst the churning water, Luo Feng stood firm as a mountain, the hem of his clothes untouched.
Although Luo Lie on the other side was also unhard, he had been forced back several steps. The difference in their strength was clear.
"Damn it!"
Luo Lie’s expression was extrely dark; this was the first ti he had been so humiliated. Just as he was about to attack again to reclaim his pride, Luo Feng moved, not intending to give him another chance.
"Be defeated!"
BOOM!
With a stomp that made the water beneath him explode, Luo Feng’s wind and thunder saber intent coalesced to its peak around him. Exuding a domineering aura, he slashed out with his saber.
SWISH!
The saber gleam, quick as lightning and wreathed in faint purple electric arcs, carried the faint sound of thunder.
"Broken Fire Sun Pierce!"
Feeling the piercing sharpness within the saber gleam, Luo Lie’s heart went cold. Without a second thought, he commanded the five Fla Pythons to open their massive maws and bite at the incoming attack.
SLICE!
With a flash of the saber gleam, one Fla Python’s head was severed, and it vanished instantly.
As the Fla Python disappeared, Luo Lie grunted, his face flushing an unnatural, vivid red.
The Broken Fire Fla Pythons were ford from his Yuan Qi. With one destroyed, his own Yuan Qi was depleted by nearly thirty percent. The Qi and blood in his chest roiled, and he nearly vomited blood.
It looks like these Fla Pythons are both his killing move and his weakness!
Luo Feng’s eyes flashed as he said coldly, "Let’s cut down a few more!"
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
The massive Saber Qi on the Rage Fla Knife extended fiercely. Without hesitation, the blade vanished into the void, unleashing three consecutive saber gleams in an instant.
Luo Lie dodged the first saber gleam.
The second saber gleam struck the Fierce Gold Spear, erupting in dazzling sparks. The imnse force made Luo Lie stagger.
The third saber gleam followed swiftly.
"Damn it!"
Enraged, Luo Lie knew this was when his defense was weakest. If struck by the saber gleam, he would undoubtedly die! Without hesitation, he commanded the Fla Pythons behind him to et the attack.
SLICE!
With a flash of the blade, three of the remaining four Fla Pythons behind Luo Lie were instantly severed. He spat out a large mouthful of blood, his body recoiling continuously through the water.
That was close!
Luo Lie was shaken. If not for his ability to control the Broken Fire Fla Pythons at will, he would likely be dead by now, his head separated from his body!
Wiping away blood from the corner of his mouth, Luo Lie stared maliciously at Luo Feng, "Luo Feng, the next ti we et will be the day you die!"
With a cold snort, Luo Lie suddenly poured all his remaining Yuan Qi into the Fierce Gold Spear and shot it forcefully at Luo Feng. Then, he turned and dived deeper into the lake.
A cold smile touched Luo Feng’s lips. Ten Qi Dragons roiled around him as his figure shot forward.
As he moved, he punched, shattering the Gang Qi on the incoming Fierce Gold Spear, then caught the spear shaft. His icy gaze fixed on Luo Lie, who had already dived a hundred ters away.
BUZZ!
Infused with a surge of Yuan Qi, the Fierce Gold Spear erupted with an exceptionally dazzling crimson fiery light, causing the surrounding lake water to boil violently.
"What!"
Luo Lie turned back to see this, his expression changing drastically. He hadn’t expected Luo Feng’s Yuan Qi to be so abundant. He desperately mobilized the remaining Yuan Qi in his body, fleeing towards the lake bottom exit.
"Die!"
Luo Feng’s gaze hardened, and the Fierce Gold Spear shot from his hand.
TEAR!
The Fierce Gold Spear tore through the lake water, dragging a fiery tail several ters long as it howled downwards.
PUCHI!
His Yuan Qi depleted, Luo Lie had no chance to evade. The mont his Protective Gang Energy shattered, his entire body was pierced through. He struggled violently in the water for a mont, then gradually stilled, his corpse slowly sinking with the current.
HISS!
Watching Luo Lie’s sinking body, Xue Fei drew a sharp breath, staring at Luo Feng with a horrified gaze.
He had just pleaded Luo Feng for help out of desperation, not believing that Luo Feng could defeat Luo Lie.
But the reality before him was beyond his expectations. Luo Feng’s strength was even greater than he had imagined.
"Junior Brother, it seems we both misjudged him," Xu Tai said. Having just taken a pill, he had recovered significantly from his injuries. Looking at Luo Feng, his gaze revealed his shock.
Xue Fei nodded, stunned. Thinking about how he had previously wanted to compete with Luo Feng, he couldn’t help but shake his head in self-mockery, a lingering fear in his heart.
Ten of him would not be a match for Luo Lie, yet Luo Lie had been easily defeated by Luo Feng.
"Ah! He Qin, I’m sorry..."
Seeing Luo Feng victorious, Bing Ruolan breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did she realize she was still gripping He Qin’s left wrist. Looking at the red marks on He Qin’s smooth skin, Bing Ruolan’s face flushed, and she hastily apologized.
He Qin gently shook her head, not minding at all. Her gaze fell on Luo Feng, clad in his Golden Sun Purple Cloud Robe, standing as steadfast as a boulder in the raging current. A smile touched her rosy lips as she said, "It seems we worried for nothing. His strength is enough to contend with the top ten young experts."
Hearing this, Bing Ruolan nodded, her beautiful eyes becoming sowhat unfocused as she pondered. The battle just now had also deeply shaken her.
With the threat of Luo Lie eliminated, Luo Feng felt a weight lift from his heart. He turned and walked towards Bing Ruolan and the others.
Seeing Luo Feng approach, Xue Fei cupped his fists and said, "Luo Feng, thank you for saving us."
" too. Luo Feng, I doubted your strength before. I’m ashad," Xu Tao added with a rueful smile.
Luo Feng calmly shook his head. "I killed Luo Lie, not to save you, but because I didn’t want to leave such a threat behind. So you don’t have to thank ."
"Regardless, we two were saved because of you. This is a debt of gratitude that I, Xue Fei, will never forget!"
Although Xue Fei was arrogant, he was not soone who couldn’t distinguish right from wrong. His previous enmity with Luo Feng was rely a montary dispute of pride; compared to this life-saving grace, it was insignificant.
"As you wish."
Luo Feng paid them no more heed, turning to Bing Ruolan and He Qin, "The others will probably catch up soon. Let’s go."
"Mm."
The two nodded, their robes fluttering as they moved to Luo Feng’s side, ready to continue their descent.
Seeing Luo Feng about to leave, Xue Fei suddenly spoke, "Luo Feng, is the Rotary Solidification Pill your goal?"
"Yes. But I’m afraid there’s little hope." Luo Feng gave Bing Ruolan an apologetic look.
The previous fight had cost them a lot of ti; they had surely fallen far behind the other young experts.
If they were outside, Luo Feng wouldn’t be concerned, but the imnse resistance in this lake severely limited the effectiveness of his Teng Dragon’s Step. The chances of catching up to the others seed bleak.
"It doesn’t matter. I’ll be able to break through to the Spiritual Rotation Realm within two months at most..." Bing Ruolan understood Luo Feng’s aning and shook her head with a smile, bright and refreshing.
"Luo Feng, I can help you!" Xue Fei suddenly stood up and said with a laugh, "You must have seen it. My Profound Weight Qi Field allows for extrely fast movent underwater, far beyond what other Martial Artists can achieve. I can take you all to the lake bottom exit."
Luo Feng was intrigued. Xue Fei’s Profound Weight Qi Field was indeed uniquely suited for descending through the lake.
"Then thank you very much." Luo Feng wouldn’t stand on ceremony for such a matter.
"No need for thanks. This small favor is nothing compared to you saving the lives of my Junior Brother and myself."
Xue Fei waved his hand, walked to the side, and the Qi around him suddenly vibrated.
BUZZ!
A strange fluctuation burst from his body. The void behind him emitted creaking sounds as the ambient Yuan Qi condensed into a crystal mountain shadow, forty to fifty feet high, enveloping Luo Feng, Bing Ruolan, and He Qin, holding the water at bay.
At this mont, Xu Tai stood up, drew his Longsword, and declared loudly, "I will lend a hand as well!"
"Thousand Swords Severing the Flow, Obstructing a Hundred Rivers!"
A sharp glint flashed in Xu Tao’s eyes, his piercing aura surging as he swung his sword down.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH...
Though it was clearly a single strike, hundreds upon hundreds of Sword Qi fanned out.
WHOOSH...
The Sword Qi spiraled downwards, repelling all the water and forcefully carving out a vacuum zone a hundred ters wide.
"That’s the Broken Flow Swordsmanship of Azure Moon Water Moon. It has ten stages, and each stage can unleash a hundred Sword Qi. Xu Tao can unleash nearly a thousand Sword Qi with a single strike; his Swordsmanship is nearing Great Accomplishnt!" He Qin, being a Sword Dao prodigy, had so understanding of the Swordsmanship styles of various academies and explained.
Luo Feng nodded. No wonder Xu Tao is known as the Breaking Wave Sword.
"Stand firm!" Xue Fei’s voice rang out. At the sa ti, he took a heavy step downwards and yelled, "Fall!"
RUMBLE...
The mountain shadow trembled and, like a falling cot, carried Luo Feng and the two won downwards at incredible speed, following the path cleared by the Sword Qi.
