Qing Zhes ferocity, decisiveness, and swiftness shocked everyone and alarmed many empire cultivators.

He clearly intended to quickly overwhelm Lin Xun and crush him below his feet!

Lin Xun made no attempt to evade. He swung his right fist as he executed the Bian Stamp, causing the attack to soar into the air like a Bian and explode the air with equally earth-shaking power.

Boom!

It felt as if a landslide was occurring as a deafening boom thundered across the skies, causing the onlookers blood the churn wildly.

The empire cultivators were deeply anxious and worried for Lin Xun, afraid that he had failed to stop Qing Zhes deadly attack. After all, his strength was downright terrifying.

On the other hand, the Zuo Clan and the Qin Clan members were grinning from ear to ear, appearing very relaxed and excited. They did not believe Lin Xun was Qing Zhes match because there was too huge of a disparity between them.

Only Gu Dongting silently observed without speaking. He knew that the youngster would not be so easily subdued if he had indeed attained the supreme path.

On the battlefield, lights rapidly flared and the ground shook as if two volcanoes were colliding. Dreadful light undulations were released and unfurled in all directions like crashing waves.

The nearby rocks, path, and flora were instantly destroyed, filling the air with dust.

Two individuals clashed with their bare fists. One of them had a dignified posture and a fierce gaze akin to a sword being unsheathed while the other possessed an ethereal figure surrounded by a brilliant light. The terrifying undulations from their exchanges were so blinding that it made it nearly impossible for the onlookers to keep their eyes open.

More than a dozen blows were exchanged in an instant. Their frightening speed and power caused the world around them to fall into turmoil, affecting even the clouds and wind, and destroying almost everything in the vicinity.

This

The Zuo Clan and Qin Clan members were astounded. Despite Qing Zhes overwhelming strength and terrifyingly deadly attacks, Lin Xun was able to match him blow for blow!

Moreover, it was a direct clash of power against power!

Their hearts trembled in disbelief as their eyes widened in shock. There was no longer any trace of their earlier relaxed expressions, and their smiles had turned rigid.

He only has breathing room because Qing Zhe suppressed his strength. Dont worry, his defeat is already set in stone and is only a matter of time.

One of the Zuo Clan higher-ups tried to console himself.

Rumble!

The earth split open inch by inch as soil and stones swept forth like a wave. The air was filled with the piercing sounds of explosions as blasts of light devastated the surroundings.

The terrifying scene was caused by the intense clash of power between the two individuals.

It was indeed an intense battle.

Cultivators from innumerable factions were gathered at Mind Cleansing Peaks entrance, and the entire Forbidden City had their attention on the match.

Many empire cultivators were originally worried for Lin Xun, but they soon forgot their worry due to astonishment and were drawn into the duel between the two peerless experts.

There was absolutely no doubt that it was a clash of the peak.

Bang!

It was not long before the two individuals backed away and separated.

However, they soon unleashed even more terrifying attacks.

Blinding radiance rained down like a torrential downpour, engulfing their figures. They moved so fast that it felt as if they were blinking from spot to spot, making it dizzying to watch. It was also so exhilarating that the onlookers nearly forgot to breathe.

Even the older-generation bigwigs could feel their hearts stir a little, unable to comprehend how two such young individuals could possess such frightening power.

What monsters.

Several of the ordinary cultivators were stupefied and rooted to the ground in shock. Such power had already surpassed their imagination. Every clash was akin to a mountain being destroyed or a sea being split and felt as if the sun and moon were vying for supremacy.

Hmph!

Qing Zhe icily snorted. He was somewhat unhappy that his attacks were being blocked, and he was unable to swiftly defeat his opponent.

Rumble!

His aura grew increasingly powerful as light began to violently burn around him like a raging furnace. His long silver hair danced around him, making him resemble a shining god.

Strong!

Some Cyclic Derivation experts expressions changed when they felt the Qing Zhes terrifying power.

Bixi Collision! Lin Xun suddenly moved as a giant dragon seemed to emerge from his back, creating a Bixi phantasm.

It was the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations. When Lin Xun executed it, its power was clearly different from before. A massive force was released from his back, seemingly intent on smashing the entire world into the ground as it pulsed with a frightening aura of destruction.

Bang!

In that moment, everyone saw Qing Zhe stagger due to the collision and was nearly sent flying.

An uproar immediately followed!

Even the calm Gu Dongting could not help but narrow his eyes a little.

The attack caused Qing Zhes eyes to turn ice-cold. His silver hair wildly danced around him as brilliant azure light erupted from his body like a raging inferno.

Rumble~

His aura rapidly intensified as the space around him crumbled inch by inch. The clouds and wind nearby seemed to jump in alarm as they were dyed in dense azure light.

In the end, each breath he took made the land tremble, creating a horrifying scene.

The Zuo Clan members, the Qin Clan members, and the empire cultivators hearts jumped in alarm when they sensed Qing Zhes dreadful power. He was definitely an exceptionally terrifying younger-generation expert.

Qing Zhe was giving off an extremely dangerous aura as his azure eyes shone intimidatingly.

In a flash, he disappeared from the spot and appeared near Lin Xun.

Boom!

His hands formed a mighty ancient seal. Azure sparks arced around it as if lightning was contained within. The terrifying aura made even Cyclic Derivation experts scalps turn numb.

Lin Xun was unafraid. His aura grew increasingly ethereal, giving off a sensation of perfection as clear, clean, and illusory light shimmered around him.

Even his hair began to glow as a fierce light surged in his black eyes.

He might have needed to be cautious if Qing Zhe had not suppressed his strength. However, what was there for Lin Xun to be afraid of since he had?

Subdue!

Qing Zhe seemed to transform into an azure sun. A powerful and fierce aura pulsed from him as he rushed forth.

Lin Xun also activated the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations. Legendary divine dragons seemed to emerge one after another as the Hornless Ice Dragon Step, Bixi Collision, Baxia Imprisonment, and Bian Stamp were executed.

The two clashed again like a blade and sword vying for supremacy and ancient divine mountains colliding. The dreadful undulations from their clash caused the many empire cultivators expressions to change as they hurriedly retreated.

Rumble!

Space warped and distorted, a giant abyss-like pit appeared, and cracks spread across the ground like a spiderweb.

It was a horrifying scene to witness.

More and more empire cultivators arrived nearby to watch the battle.

At the Mind Cleansing Peak entrance, Spirit Vulture, Xiaoke, Lin Zhong, Third Old Zhu, Lin Huaiyuan, and the other Lin Clan higher-ups were watching as well.

An unknown number of bigwigs were also secretly watching, closely observing every detail of the battle.

By now, everyone could tell that Qing Zhe with his suppressed cultivation was not able to swiftly defeat Lin Xun.

Lin Xuns stellar performance renewed many cultivators understanding of him, causing them to feel pleasantly surprised.

Many people had not expected that Lin Xuns strength would grow so unfathomable after half a year.

Gu Dongting mumbled to himself, Is this the power of the supreme path

The Zuo Clan and Qin Clan bigwigs expressions fluctuated indeterminately. There was no longer any trace of their earlier relaxed demeanors.

Plop!

Moments later, blood suddenly splattered on the battlefield. At the same time, a figure staggered more than a hundred feet back in the air as blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

This

Everyone was shocked because it wasnt Lin Xun but Qing Zhe who had been forced back!

The outcome caused many people to be dumbstruck, unable to believe what had happened. The unexpectedness of it was far too astounding.

The Zuo Clan and Qin Clan bigwigs eyes nearly popped out.

How could this be?

They never expected to see such a scene.

In the beginning, many people had been worried for Lin Xun, and almost no one believed he had any chance of victory. After all, Qing Zhe was too strong and even perfect Cyclic Derivation experts had failed to block his three swords.

However, he was the first to be injured in the duel and had been forced back by Lin Xun, who only had Heaven Ascension cultivation. The reversal was too sudden for the crowd to process.

Continuing to suppress his cultivation wont do him any good Gu Dongting frowned.

On the battlefield, Lin Xuns black hair fluttered around him as an illusory radiance swirled around his body, making him resemble a transcendent immortal. He was completely uninjured.

He glanced at Qing Zhe and said, Use your full power. Otherwise, your loss will only become uglier.

The place was deathly silent.

In the distance, Qing Zhe wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. His face was a little pale, and there was a bleeding fist imprint on his left shoulder.

The sight shocked everyone.

Qing Zhe had been so proud and confident earlier, causing many cultivators to believe that Lin Xun was at a disadvantage in the duel and would likely lose.

However, after the battle began, Lin Xuns remarkable display continuously shocked everyone until the present moment when Qing Zhe was injured. It made the crowd feel an unrealistic sensation as if they were in a dream.

Qing Zhe is an inner true disciple of the Omega Sword Sect and a true heaven pride. How could he be the first to be injured?

The Zuo Clan and Qin Clan bigwigs felt terrible, refusing to believe that this was true.

He suppressed his cultivation and didnt use his full power. Moreover, dont forget that Qing Zhes strongest weapon is his sword dao which he has yet to use until now! Keep watching, the one who ultimately loses will not be Qing Zhe.

Gu Dongtings words revitalized the Zuo Clan and Qin Clan bigwigs, allowing them to regain their confidence.

This wasnt a lie. After all, Gu Dongting had a good understanding of Qing Zhe. He possessed strength that matched his arrogance and was considered an outstanding genius even in the Omega Sword Sect due to his superb abilities.

He had only been injured because he had been careless.

Gu Dongting firmly believed the situation would soon turn when Qing Zhe became serious!
