Chapter 691: Chapter 367: Peering! Yun Tianyan Arrives!

Feeling the killing intent emanating from Li Shaofeng, Princess Yaoguang said:

“Do not underestimate him. Although he is not a Sword Intent Level Swordsman, for some reason, his Sword Intent is quite extraordinary. Coupled with the powerful Slaughter Attribute, the power of his Sword Intent Prototype is probably no less than yours. You should be clear about this from the recent Sword Intent duel…”

Hearing this, the two disciples of the Extreme Dao Sect immediately changed their expressions.

“The gap between a Sword Intent Prototype and true Sword Intent is like heaven and earth. He’s not even a Sword Intent Level Swordsman, yet his Sword Intent’s power can compare to Junior Brother Li’s sword intent! How can it be so formidable?”

“Is that possible?”

The two did not have Princess Yaoguang’s keen eye and only knew that Li Shaofeng was sent flying with blood spewing from Luo Cheng’s attack. As for why he lost and how he lost, they could not discern the details.

Li Shaofeng’s chest heaved violently, and with a somber face, he said:

“Senior Sister, you’re overestimating him! That kid just got lucky, catching me off guard. If I had fully unleashed my Sword Intent earlier, he wouldn’t stand a chance! He wouldn’t have any power to resist!”

Li Shaofeng had always prided himself on comprehending Sword Intent and being a Sword Intent Level Swordsman!

He naturally would not admit that the Sword Intent he was proud of, painstakingly comprehended, was not as good as Luo Cheng’s Sword Intent Prototype!

This was something he absolutely could not accept! Read complete versıon only at ɴovelfire.net

“I hope that’s the case.”

Princess Yaoguang looked at Luo Cheng from afar and said no more.

She knew Li Shaofeng always saw himself highly. Coupled with a swordsman’s innate arrogance, he wouldn’t accept being inferior to a Quasi-Sword Intent Swordsman. His pride wouldn’t allow it, and pushing too hard would only tarnish his Sword Heart, which was not good.

Moreover, although Luo Cheng’s Sword Intent was powerful, he was merely a Late-Stage Ninth Layer of Awakening Vein Realm expert who had also awakened a Wasted Martial Soul. In terms of real combat power, he couldn’t compare to Li Shaofeng; otherwise, he would have been on the Domain List a long time ago.

Since he doesn’t appear on the Awakening Vein Realm Domain List, there’s nothing to worry about.

“A Quasi-Sword Intent Swordsman’s Sword Intent Prototype shouldn’t have such power, especially considering his age; he shouldn’t have comprehended such a formidable Slaughter Sword Intent. Could it be some Secret Technique or Treasure…”

Princess Yaoguang appeared contemplative, her eyes clear and intelligent as she stared at Luo Cheng.

On the other side, Luo Cheng returned to his seat with Jin Tiandu and the others.

“Luo Cheng, are you alright?”

Jin Tiandu noticed Luo Cheng’s pale complexion and also thought it was due to some Secret Technique with severe side effects.

After all, that one sword strike had repelled the Sword Intent Level Swordsman, Domain List genius Li Shaofeng!

Just the thought of this made Jin Tiandu feel a chill down his spine, as if it were an unreal dream.

“It’s nothing.”

Luo Cheng shook his head.

He was only affected by the piercing cold due to his proximity to Yin Li.

The might of a Top Level Heavenly Ability was such that even Protective Essence Energy could hardly completely shield against it.

“You’re amazing!”

Only then did Jin Yuxi snap out of her daze. She excitedly grabbed Luo Cheng, her charming face full of shock and exclaimed:

“Li Shaofeng is a super genius ranked forty-first on the Domain List, and you made him spew blood and fly backward! That’s astounding!”

“If this incident spreads, it will certainly shake the entire Great Yue Dynasty! It could even gain fame across neighboring countries! If Yun Tianyan learns of this, he’ll surely reconsider the life-and-death duel with you!”

Indeed, Li Shaofeng, who ranked forty-first on the Awakening Vein Realm Domain List, was quite renowned across the Yunlan Domain Group. If people learned he was repelled and made to spit blood by an unknown figure, it would definitely cause a sensation.

Luo Cheng remained calm, smiling, and said: “It’s not that exaggerated, I just gained a slight upper hand.”

“Heh, it’s not easy for an Awakening Vein Realm expert to gain the upper hand against Li Shaofeng, not in the entire Yunlan Domain Group.”

Jin Tiandu shook his head, finding it hard to maintain his composure.

It seemed every time they met, Luo Cheng would bring unexpected surprises.

Remembering something, Jin Tiandu asked, “Can you still perform that sword strike you used earlier?”

He was concerned that a dip in Luo Cheng’s state might affect his life-and-death duel with Yun Tianyan two days later.

Luo Cheng nodded.

Jin Tiandu chuckled, “It seems you’re already confident of victory in this battle. I wonder how Yun Tianyan would feel if he knew what happened today, and whether he dares to keep the appointment.”

The influence of Sword Intent is significant in swordsmen duels; with the power Luo Cheng displayed earlier, a fight against Yun Tianyan almost guarantees invincibility.

Luo Cheng hoped Yun Tianyan wouldn’t back out of the duel.

He promised his master he would use this fight to avenge his master’s prior humiliation.

Killing Yun Tianyan and earning the merit is the only way he could be entirely exempted from the punishment for slaying four of the Inner Sect’s top ten disciples.

If Yun Tianyan didn’t show, then these wishes would just become empty dreams.

Hmm?

As Luo Cheng was pondering, a sensation arose in his heart, directing him to look at the second pavilion on the left.

Sitting inside were two female disciples from the Great Qi Jile Sect.

They were also observing Luo Cheng; the one on the left had eyes glinting with mysterious light, like a deep galaxy spiraling, quietly fixating on Luo Cheng. When Luo Cheng suddenly looked over, the gleam in her eyes immediately vanished.

“What happened, was it an illusion?”

Luo Cheng found it strange.

Just now, he felt as if he was being observed, and as he was about to investigate, it disappeared without a trace.

Unbeknownst to him, the pristine-robed Jile Sect disciple, Chi Mengyun, was already in a state of shock internally.

“What happened?”

Beside her, Yu Qingyou felt her body’s tension and couldn’t help but ask.

Chi Mengyun exclaimed, “It seems he noticed my scrutiny!”

“Impossible, your Martial Soul Divine Power is undetectable even to me; even ordinary True Masters might not be able to perceive it. How could an Awakening Vein Realm expert detect it?” Yu Qingyou shook her head.

“Hmm, maybe I’m overthinking…”

Chi Mengyun thought, perhaps that was the case.

After all, Luo Cheng was just an Awakening Vein Realm expert. Even if his combat prowess was extraordinary, he couldn’t have much accomplishment in Soul Power and wouldn’t be able to detect her observation.

“Discover anything?” Yu Qingyou curiously inquired.

Luo Cheng, as a Quasi-Sword Intent Swordsman, whose Sword Intent Prototype could defeat a true Sword Intent, was unheard of, so they wanted to explore what mystery lie within Luo Cheng.

Chi Mengyun frowned slightly and gently shook her head, “His Sea of Consciousness and Dantian are shrouded in a mysterious aura, possibly a seal. I can’t see through it.”

“Even you can’t see through it?”

Yu Qingyou was somewhat moved; she gazed at Luo Cheng, licking her red lips, and revealed a charming smile, “This guy is indeed extraordinary! To have reached the Golden Body Realm despite possessing a Wasted Martial Soul and to cultivate to such a level at a young age with such formidable Sword Intent, it’s truly a mystery how he accomplishes this. However, this is good; the more outstanding he is, the more hopeful he is to bear the Holy Artifact…”

Chi Mengyun remained silent. Those world-renowned top geniuses failed to bear the Holy Artifact ultimately; Luo Cheng was incomparable to them, and his hope of bearing the Holy Artifact was slim.

If not, when news of his Golden Body Realm cultivation transmitted back, it wouldn’t have been ignored by those above…

“Let’s transmit what happened today and see how the decision is made.”

The performances within the courtyard were exceptionally remarkable; however, everyone’s thoughts were not on the performances, discussing everything that happened earlier. Luo Cheng, Princess Yaoguang, and Yin Li were naturally the focal points.

Meanwhile, above the clouds a few hundred miles outside Yunquan City, a streak of Flame Light swiftly flashed by.

Within the Flame Light, two figures could barely be seen; the one behind was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man. Standing proudly in the void, with eyes gleaming fiercely, like two blades ready to tear people apart, he was the Inner Sect’s chief disciple of the Fierce Cloud Sect, Yun Tianyan!
