Chapter 469: Chapter 255: Consecutive Defeats (2)

He wanted to fight Xu Yang. From a distance, he had witnessed Xu Yang send Li Chuyang flying with a single punch, and he was curious about both Xu Yang’s strength and his Golden Gang Qi.

"I am Qi Xuancheng. Allow me to exchange a few moves with Brother Lin!"

Xu Yang didn’t react. At a nod from the Master of Medicine King Peak, the second-ranked Qi Xuancheng leaped onto the arena, his body surging with intense battle lust.

The Purple Sun Sect had already lost one match. If he could win this one, he would be the hero who turned the tide.

"Please!" Lin Jingyu’s eyes lit up.

It was said that the Purple Sun Sect was known for its swords and Yellow Maple Valley for its fists. The weapon at Qi Xuancheng’s waist was, fittingly, a sword.

Qi Xuancheng wasted no more words. With a tremor of Gang Qi, the longsword at his waist shot out like a silver ray, emitting the fluctuations of a Half-Spirit Weapon. He then strode forward, grabbed the hilt, and in an instant, a screen of sword light enveloped Lin Jingyu.

Many people frowned. Qi Xuancheng was showing off at a time like this. It would be fine if he won, but if he lost, he would likely be drowned in scorn.

Lin Jingyu stood as firm as a mountain. Mighty Gang Qi surged out of him, and his fists glowed with a red light, resembling a pair of red-hot sledgehammers. It was an incredibly bizarre sight.

HISS...

The sharp Sword Qi sliced through the air with a piercing shriek. At first, there were only two or three strands of Sword Qi, but in the span of a breath, they multiplied to seven or eight, surrounding Lin Jingyu from all directions. And the Sword Qi continued to multiply rapidly, becoming as dense as raindrops.

This Sword Technique was somewhat similar to Xu Yang’s Fine Rain Shocking Wind Sword, but its power was far greater.

Before the Sword Qi even arrived, its sharp aura was already whipping Lin Jingyu’s robes about in fierce gusts of wind.

"Flashy but useless!"

Lin Jingyu chuckled as the Gang Qi throughout his body surged, flowing like water and rapidly converging into his fists.

The next moment, his bones and tendons let out a roar like muffled thunder as he strode forward. His arm muscles bulged as he threw a punch straight into the rain of Sword Qi.

BOOM!

His fist struck the air, creating ripples visible to the naked eye. Amidst the roar, a tyrannical shockwave swept out, radiating a powerful pressure that seemed capable of crushing all things. It was as if he had thrown not one punch, but dozens, even hundreds.

BANG! BANG...

The dense, rain-like Sword Qi exploded one after another, transforming into pure Gang Qi that flooded the arena.

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Faced with such a powerful attack, they had expected Lin Jingyu to either dodge or block it with his Protective Gang Qi. They never imagined he could shatter so much Sword Qi with a single punch.

"What?"

Qi Xuancheng was also greatly shocked, his face turning grave.

’That was Sword Qi unleashed from a Half-Spirit Weapon, not tofu! Yet Lin Jingyu shattered it all with one punch.’

DING!

From amidst the shattered Sword Qi, a crimson Sword Gang emerged. It tore through the air like a red thread, and the massive fist struck its tip perfectly.

Vigorous Energy surged, and Gang Qi roared.

Facing Qi Xuancheng’s astonished expression, Lin Jingyu revealed a hint of disdain, clearly not very impressed with this disciple of the Purple Sun Sect.

The Half-Spirit Soldier Level Treasure Sword was bent into a frightening arc by the crimson fist. Although the Fist Gang was pierced, the sword could not penetrate his flesh.

Lin Jingyu had actually also cultivated the White Tiger Shattering Gold Fist, making his fist harder than metal.

Qi Xuancheng was stunned. ’Didn’t they say only those with the surname Huang could cultivate the White Tiger Shattering Gold Fist? Could it be that Lin Jingyu’s real surname is Huang?’

BOOM!

A beam of sword light shot out from the bent longsword, about to pierce Lin Jingyu’s Protective Gang Qi.

The next instant, his other hand shot out, its five fingers like an eagle’s talon. With a CRACK, it crushed the sword light.

Qi Xuancheng’s pupils contracted. He hadn’t expected Lin Jingyu to be able to react at such a close distance.

"A good sword!"

A smile appeared on Lin Jingyu’s face as even mightier Gang Qi surged from his body. His muscles bulged, and his aura turned violent.

With a shake of his arm, the arcing Half-Spirit Weapon looked as if it were about to snap, nearly folding in half.

Qi Xuancheng’s expression changed drastically. He felt a vast, overwhelming power transmit from the opposing fist, like mountains toppling and seas overturning. If the Treasure Sword in his hand hadn’t been personally forged for his grandfather by the Master of Li Fire Peak, it would have probably been shattered.

His face filled with disbelief as the longsword was nearly knocked from his grasp. It felt as if he were facing not a man, but a terrifying beast. Fortunately, he reacted quickly, using the force to retreat with large steps instead of engaging in a contest of strength with Lin Jingyu.

"What?"

Many were left dumbfounded. Lin Jingyu had clashed with Qi Xuancheng’s Half-Spirit Weapon using his bare fist, yet it was Qi Xuancheng who was forced back. It was simply unbelievable.

’These disciples from Yellow Maple Valley... each one’s fists are harder than the last.’

"Valley Master Huang, this disciple of yours is incredible! His Physique is like that of a bear or a tiger," Zhang Jingyuan praised.

Lin Jingyu’s terrifying strength was definitely not something that could be achieved through a Cultivation Technique alone; it had to be innate Divine Power.

"He’s just a brute with a body full of raw power!" the Huangfeng Valley Master said with a laugh.

THUMP! THUMP...

Qi Xuancheng’s steps shook the arena. He retreated four consecutive steps before he could neutralize the terrifying force traveling up the hilt of his sword.

BOOM!

But just as he steadied himself, Lin Jingyu had already closed the distance, his crimson fist tearing through the air and creating visible ripples.

Before the fist arrived, the immense pressure from the punch was already causing Qi Xuancheng’s Protective Gang Qi to ripple, doubling the strain on his body.

’White Tiger Shattering Gold Fist!’

With no time to spare, Qi Xuancheng could only raise his sword horizontally to block as the fist, as heavy as a mountain, descended with unstoppable momentum.

CLANG!

The sound of fist meeting sword was like metal striking metal. The shattered Sword Gang exploded with a roar as the arena rumbled and a fierce wind erupted.

The body of the sword vibrated violently, letting out a mournful cry as if it were about to be shattered.

The terrifying vibrations almost ripped the longsword from his grasp. Qi Xuancheng’s fingers grew numb, and the circulation of his Gang Qi stagnated.

"Let me see this Sword Technique of your Purple Sun Sect."

Lin Jingyu let out a long cry, pressing his advantage mercilessly.

His arrogant words made the expressions of the Purple Sun Sect’s Elders turn incredibly grim.

The Purple Sun Sect did indeed have the strongest legacy of Sword Techniques, but not just anyone could cultivate them. Qi Xuancheng was not yet a disciple of Tianquan Peak, making it even harder for him to truly access the sect’s ultimate legacy.

Lin Jingyu fixed his sharp gaze on Qi Xuancheng, strode forward again, and threw another simple, brutal punch.

This punch was even heavier than the last. Its tyrannical momentum was unstoppable, carrying the power to shatter anything in its path.

Qi Xuancheng, whose bones were already ringing and muscles trembling from the previous two punches, no longer dared to block head-on.

As he retreated at high speed, he unleashed a thick beam of sword light, sending it slashing down at Lin Jingyu’s head.

CRACK!

With a violent aura, Lin Jingyu shattered the sword light with a single punch, then raised his hand and blasted out a Fist Seal through the air.

Qi Xuancheng swung his sword backhandedly, and the Fist Seal shattered.

The next moment, Lin Jingyu closed the distance with meteor-like strides, his crimson fist tearing through the air as it came crashing down.

CLANG!

The deafening sound of metal rang throughout the entire venue as the shattered Sword Gang exploded violently.

CRACK!

A terrifying vibration traveled up the hilt. A look of pain appeared on Qi Xuancheng’s face as the hand gripping the sword instantly cracked open, splattering blood.

This time, he could no longer hold onto his sword. He was sent flying by the punch.

At the same time, the fist, still carrying immense power, did not stop. It crashed through his defenses and landed on Qi Xuancheng’s Protective Gang Qi.

BANG!

The Gang Qi erupted and the Force was unleashed wildly. Qi Xuancheng felt as if he had been struck by lightning. Spiderweb-like cracks rapidly spread across his Protective Gang Qi before it shattered and exploded.

The fist’s momentum, still unabated, continued onward and slammed into Qi Xuancheng’s chest. A sound like a heavy hammer striking a leather drum rang out. Qi Xuancheng’s bones rang and his skin rippled.

An involuntary, pained grunt escaped his lips. His face flushed red as his feet left the ground and he flew backward.

In mid-air, one could see that he almost coughed up a mouthful of blood, but at the last second, he forced himself to swallow it back down.

He nearly fell off the arena, only managing to stabilize himself at the very edge, his face alternating between pale and green.

"You dare!"

"Damn you! How dare you be so ruthless!"

"Senior Brother Qi!"

...

Many of the Medicine King Peak disciples’ eyes were splitting with rage, their killing intent surging.

Lin Jingyu could have held back and not injured Qi Xuancheng, but he didn’t retract his power. He had deliberately wounded him.

Some of the agitated disciples were already leaping into the air like great birds, flying toward the arena to kill Lin Jingyu.

In an instant, three or four disciples radiating the aura of Marrow Cleansing Great Success charged forward.
