Supreme Dragon Martial Soul - Chapter 606 - 282: A Punch That Shatters, Fingers as Swords
Chapter 606: Chapter 282: A Punch That Shatters, Fingers as Swords
With a long roar, Meng He released a piercing sound filled with killing intent, shooting straight into the sky.
The Inner Sect Elders present all remained silent.
This battle concerns the talented disciples of the Xuanhe List and involves the competition between two factions within the sect, not merely a life-and-death duel between ordinary disciples, so they were better off not intervening.
“Allow it!”
Suddenly, a voice like rumbling thunder resounded from a golden fissure, shaking the void.
“Heh, Shi Huang cannot even sit still…”
A Supreme Elder of Ming Sect on the platform coldly chuckled as he looked at the golden fissure.
“Elder Shi Huang values his reputation the most. That Qi Feiyu is his disciple, and today, being looked down upon by Luo Cheng, and with the Crown Prince Hall suffering such a blow, his mood will surely be foul as a supporter of Nangong Jue.”
The Supreme Elder of Qingkui said, turning his gaze toward the plaza, “Luo Cheng might have acted recklessly this time, regardless of Qi Feiyu; Meng He ranks forty-first on the Xuanhe List and is quite formidable…”
The Supreme Elder of Ming Sect said, “Do not worry, Luo Cheng is so confident and full of foundation, surely he has some reliance. Besides, with both you and me here, there’s nothing to be worried about!”
Intending to take Luo Cheng under his wing, the Supreme Elder of Ming Sect regarded Luo Cheng as a disciple from that moment on, under no circumstances would he allow anything to happen to Luo Cheng.
The Supreme Elder of Qingkui gave a helpless smile and nodded lightly.
The Ming Sect’s Supreme Elder was just this kind of person—once he set his mind on something, no one could change it.
In moments, the people in the plaza retreated, leaving only Qi Feiyu and his seven companions along with Luo Cheng.
Gazing at the confrontation between Meng He and Luo Cheng in the field, various chaotic noises rose one after another.
“What do you think will be the result of this battle, does Luo Cheng have a chance to defeat Meng He?”
“Difficult! Extremely difficult! The strength of those within the top hundred of the Xuanhe List is two levels above those outside the hundred, moreover, Meng He is ranked forty-first! He cultivates a Six-star Body Refining Technique, his physical power is stronger than Demon Beasts of the same level, even if Luo Cheng has combat strength against the heavens, he is merely in the Eighth Realm of Awakening Vein!”
“Not necessarily, I think Luo Cheng seems to be holding something back.”
Amidst the discussions, Meng He stood thirty steps ahead of Luo Cheng, clenched his fists, and a boundless majestic aura emanated from his body, making him appear bloated by a circle, his knotted muscles resembling stone, seeming no longer of flesh and blood.
Luo Cheng’s gaze met Meng He’s as he squeezed his fists, sneering cruelly, “Boy, draw your sword!”
Luo Cheng remained unmoved, saying indifferently, “To deal with you, there’s no need to draw my sword. I can defeat you just like this.”
“What did you say!”
Furious, Meng He’s eyebrows jumped furiously; as a Body Refinement expert, his physical strength was incredibly potent, enough to face the top thirty experts of the Xuanhe List directly, yet an Eighth Realm Awakening Vein swordsman dared to battle him barehanded, such disregard for life!
“Since you’re seeking your death, I’ll fulfill you! I will dismantle your bones piece by piece, that will be the price for your arrogance before me!”
With a cruel laugh, Meng He tilted his body, instantly appearing in front of Luo Cheng, his body shining with flames, his fist resembling a small golden sun as it punched out.
This punch carried overwhelming force and dominance, the sound tearing through the air was exceptionally piercing, nearing the sound barrier.
Luo Cheng coldly laughed, his skin tinged with faint golden glow, as boundless Essence Energy surged around him, gathering toward his right fist, transforming into a small tripod with three feet and two ears.
It was the most lethal of the first three forms of the Heavenly Cauldron Fist—One Element Gathering Cauldron!
Boom!
The flame fist collided with the small cauldron, air compressed to the extreme in an instant, splintering and erupting, layer upon layer collapsing.
The smile on Meng He’s face froze immediately, replaced by intense shock and disbelief; the force coming from the fist made him feel like a mighty mountain had crashed into him, impossible to resist!
A cracking sound was heard as the flame fist power was extinguished, Meng He’s right hand’s five fingers shattered, forcing him to retreat frantically, every step crushing the jade slabs on the ground!
Luo Cheng gave him no chance to breathe, charging directly up, his boundless Essence Energy transformed into mountainous shape, that overwhelming momentum engulfs all beneath heaven, as another fist descended.
“Five Mountains Condensing Cauldron!”
A great cauldron suddenly emerged, overwhelmingly pressing down towards Meng He.
“Damn it!”
Meng He’s complexion changed drastically, his eyes bloodshot, desperately channeling Essence Energy, his figure seemingly surrounded by flames, punching back in defense.
Thunk!
A muffled sound was heard; Meng He’s strike only hindered the great cauldron momentarily, then the cauldron continued unabated.
“No!”
With a desperate cry, the cauldron smashed the flames and struck down onto Meng He’s head.
Bang!
Meng He’s entire head was like a watermelon struck with a hammer, bursting apart in an instant; white and red scattered everywhere, leaving only half of his body standing there.
“What!”
Qi Feiyu, with a disdainful expression, suddenly had his pupils shrink, and the smile on his face froze completely.
“Too strong! Simply too strong! Killed Meng He with just two punches!”
“Doesn’t this mean Luo Cheng’s strength has already reached the top forty of the Xuanhe List! No! Top thirty!”
“Is he really only at the Eighth Layer Peak Cultivation of the Awakening Vein Realm?”
All the Inner Sect disciples present, as well as the Elders, gasped in shock.
Gu Lingfeng and Yuan Zhilan were even more stunned.
Meng He ranked forty-first on the Xuanhe List, truly an elite Inner Sect genius, but faced with Luo Cheng, he was killed on the spot with just two punches like a mosquito!
None of them could have imagined that Luo Cheng, with only Eighth Layer Peak Cultivation of the Awakening Vein Realm, could possess such overwhelming strength!
Luo Cheng withdrew his fist, facing Qi Feiyu, and said, “Now am I qualified to duel with you?”
Upon hearing this, all six disciples of the Crown Prince Hall, including Qi Feiyu, had extremely grim expressions!
“Hmph! Luo Cheng, don’t think that just because you defeated Meng He, you’re unstoppable! Your strength is estimated to be around the top thirty on the Xuanhe List; among us, you’re barely average! You’re a long way from challenging Brother Qi!”
A tall young man scoffed coldly, “Don’t foolishly think you can dominate the Inner Sect!”
Luo Cheng remained unangered, casting a glance, spoke softly, “If that’s the case, how about you battle me and let’s see who truly is unaware of the vastness of the heavens and earth.”
Gulp!
With just a glance, the tall young man felt as if a peerless Treasure Sword was thrusting directly at him, forcing him to swallow hard, his face turning pale, not daring to respond.
He ranked thirty-ninth on the Xuanhe List, his strength matching Meng He’s, and the brutal scene of Meng He’s defeat with two punches was fresh in his memory, making him dare not step forward to fight.
“Let me go.”
A woman with a charming figure stepped out from beside Qi Feiyu.
This woman was named Yu Yiyao, ranked eighteenth on the Xuanhe List, the highest-ranked person present besides Qi Feiyu.
Qi Feiyu nodded; he looked down on dueling with Luo Cheng, but allowing Luo Cheng to be so arrogant was undoubtedly damaging to both his and Crown Prince Hall’s prestige, having Yu Yiyao solve this trouble should suffice.
Taking a deep breath, Qi Feiyu cautioned, “Be careful, this person has achieved Golden Body Realm, more formidable than expected, try to avoid close combat, finish quickly!”
“Hehe, rest assured, I won’t be reckless like Meng He.”
Yu Yiyao chuckled lightly; in her view, Meng He’s miserable defeat was mainly due to underestimating Luo Cheng’s power, being overly confident and careless, otherwise the outcome was uncertain.
Swish!
With a whiff of fragrance, Yu Yiyao appeared in the center of the square, a hundred steps away, and smiled sweetly at Luo Cheng:
“Junior Brother Luo, you’re only at the Eighth Layer Realm of the Awakening Vein, yet possess such strength, truly eye-opening for me, I’d like to spar a few moves with you.”
Luo Cheng glanced at her, speaking indifferently, “I won’t hold back just because you’re a woman.”
“Is that so? Then I needn’t be courteous either.”
Yu Yiyao’s eyes turned cold, with a flash of light from her hands, she drew two gleaming Treasure Swords, and with swords in hand, her imposing sword momentum erupted. Her previously charming and gentle demeanor transformed into something sharp and chilling, shooting straight to the sky, slicing the clouds into disarray!
“Such strong sword momentum!”
“Yu Yiyao’s Sword Dao Realm likely has reached the realm of sixty percent of Sword Intent Prototype! Truly impressive!”
An Elder noticed the extraordinary realm of Yu Yiyao’s Sword Dao.
Swish swish swish swish!
The sword momentum unfolded, Yu Yiyao initiated the attack first, wielding her two short swords like the wind, launching a torrent of dense, fierce Sword Qi, transforming into a Sword Qi torrent.
Enhanced by the sword momentum, the Sword Qi was incredibly sharp, almost tangible, causing the solid jade stone floor to relentlessly shatter wherever it passed, its destructive power astonishing.
“Fall!”
Luo Cheng’s body stood straight as a sword, with fingers closed into a sword, he pointed in the air.
Crash!
A bolt of lightning as thick as a doorboard shot out, dazzlingly bright, lighting up the entire square, it was actually derived from Sword Qi!
