Chapter 117: Chapter 117: So Disappointing
"Late Stage of Golden Core peak!"
Ye Xingyun widened his eyes, utterly shocked, "This is impossible! Absolutely impossible! With an Early Stage of Golden Core cultivation, it’s impossible to possess the power of a Late Stage Golden Core peak. His body simply can’t withstand it."
"I’ve been in the Cultivation Realm for so many years, what kinds of geniuses have I not seen? No matter how strong his Spirit Root is, with just an Early Stage Golden Core cultivation, he couldn’t possibly be this strong."
Even witnessing it firsthand, Ye Xingyun couldn’t believe that an Early Stage Golden Core could possess the combat strength of a Late Stage peak.
"The power of the Late Stage of Golden Core peak!"
"Isn’t this too powerful? Is this truly the real strength of Junior Brother?"
"An Early Stage of Golden Core realm, yet possessing the strength of a Late Stage Golden Core peak."
Feeling the terrifying Ice Attribute Power unleashed by Gu Chenfeng, disciples of the Ancient Divine Sect couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement.
Gu Chenfeng’s formidable strength once again refreshed their imaginations.
A martial uncle, face full of excitement, said, "Gu Chenfeng’s Ice Attribute Spiritual Power is extremely dominating, and the strength of a Late Stage Golden Core is entirely unable to contend with it."
"I can’t believe it, this kid’s strength is actually so terrifying." Another martial uncle exclaimed excitedly, "With such astonishing cultivation speed, he will surpass us in just a few years."
"Gu Chenfeng should not have revealed his true strength yet," Ling Qiushui speculated internally, "His Ice Attribute Spiritual Power should just be his surface power; he hasn’t utilized the Mysterious Power."
Ling Qiushui’s guess was correct.
Gu Chenfeng had not yet used his true strength.
If Gu Chenfeng utilized the power of the Celestial Emperor’s Blood, Dongfang Qing would have already lost.
"How could he be this strong? Is he really at the Early Stage of Golden Core?" Dongfang Qing struggled to get up, looking at Gu Chenfeng in utter terror, his body uncontrollably trembling.
Dongfang Qing regretted so much he almost turned green inside.
If he had known that Gu Chenfeng’s strength was this monstrous, he wouldn’t have accepted the challenge even if it killed him.
As Gu Chenfeng’s aura surged to its peak, the overwhelming momentum also reached its apex.
Gu Chenfeng pointed the Heaven-Slaying Sword towards the sky, and an overwhelmingly domineering Sword Intent swept out, dazzling white light shooting straight to the sky.
Feeling this overpowering Sword Intent, the martial uncle and disciples of the Ancient Divine Sect were once again in an uproar.
Ling Qiushui looked at Gu Chenfeng in shock, speculating internally, "What stunning Sword Intent, the Sword Technique he’s using must be extremely terrifying, could it also be a Sword Technique taught by the Immortal?"
At this moment.
All eyes were on him.
Scanning over the terrified Dongfang Qing, Gu Chenfeng shouted coldly, "Annihilation Heaven Slayer!"
With the shout, Gu Chenfeng slashed down without hesitation, a massive white Sword Aura, dozens of meters long, arcing like a crescent moon, charged towards Dongfang Qing with destructive might.
Gu Chenfeng slightly chuckled coldly, "Bring out your strongest technique, or you won’t have a chance. If you lose, not only will you disgrace the Myriad Swords Sect, you’ll also disgrace your Dongfang Family."
"Hmm? Dongfang Qing, why do I sense fear from you? Aren’t you the senior disciple of the Myriad Swords Sect? Where did your previous arrogance go? You’re not thinking of surrendering, are you?"
The terrified Dongfang Qing, hearing Gu Chenfeng’s mocking words, became incredibly gloomy and ignited with anger.
"How dare you look down on me!" Dongfang Qing angrily yelled, his pale face twitching violently.
A dignified senior disciple of the Myriad Swords Sect and the Dongfang Family’s top genius, how could Dongfang Qing tolerate being insulted like this?
"Don’t think having immense power makes you extraordinary, I have that too!" Dongfang Qing snarled with fury, recklessly activating his Essence Blood, unleashing a terrifying surge of Earth Attribute Spiritual Power.
Even with severe injuries, Dongfang Qing erupted with unheard-of powerful strength, his overwhelming aura soaring like he had taken a Divine Pill.
"Essence Blood!" Ye Xingyun’s expression changed dramatically, immediately transmitting a furious shout, "Dongfang Qing are you crazy? Stop it now!"
"Actually activating Essence Blood," Ling Qiushui and several martial uncles were taken aback.
"This guy is truly mad," muttered Zuo Qingyang with a frown, "If he overuses his Essence Blood, breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage in this lifetime would be nearly impossible for him."
Bai Tu crossed his arms, smiling coldly, "Isn’t that just splendid? Even if he beats Junior Brother, it wouldn’t be honorable, it would instead be laughable."
Fighting against an Early Stage of Golden Core by using Essence Blood, if that’s not laughable, what is?
"Dongfang Qing! Stop it right now! Do you hear me?" Ye Xingyun transmitted his angry shout,
but unfortunately.
The enraged Dongfang Qing had no intention of stopping; his mind was consumed with the desire to defeat Gu Chenfeng.
Within just a moment, Dongfang Qing’s aura had reached par with Gu Chenfeng’s, his powerful strength had also reached the Late Stage Golden Core level.
Zuo Qingyang frowned heavily, "The strength is rising so fast, it’s indeed the power of Essence Blood; Dongfang Qing’s strength has also peaked!"
"So what?" Bai Tu laughed without a hint of panic, "Junior Brother is a genius favored by the Immortal; besides, Ice Attribute Spiritual Power can suppress common attributes, even if he utilizes the Essence Blood, he can’t beat Junior Brother."
Liu Qingqing softly chuckled, "Second Senior Brother is right, Junior Brother’s Sword Intent is very powerful, I also believe he will definitely win."
At this moment, disciples of the Ancient Divine Sect were still frantically shouting in support.
At the square.
Dongfang Qing’s fierce gaze fixed intently on Gu Chenfeng, like a venomous snake, clenching his teeth and shouting furiously, "Spiritual Technique! Myriad Swords Return to Origin Slash!"
"Swoosh!"
Dongfang Qing swung his sword horizontally, a colossal Energy Sword Slash crossed through the air with a sharp, piercing sound, tearing small cracks across the square’s surface.
Gu Chenfeng slightly chuckled coldly, "The power is decent, but that’s it."
"Boom!"
In mere moments, the white Sword Aura and Energy Sword Slash collided fiercely, exploding with deafening noise, the terrifying collision energy rippling across the square, leaving massive cracks in the ground.
The destructive power was truly shocking.
"Puff!"
Dongfang Qing couldn’t hold out for even three seconds before suddenly spitting a mouthful of blood, his face growing even paler.
Seeing this scene, disciples of the Ancient Divine Sect became even more excited, cheering and shouting with all their might.
Even several martial uncles couldn’t help but join the shout.
"How is this possible?" Dongfang Qing’s eyes widened to the extreme.
Dongfang Qing almost couldn’t believe it; even when activating Essence Blood, the power he gained couldn’t rival Gu Chenfeng.
"Is this really your limit? Such a disappointment," Gu Chenfeng smiled coldly, showing no pressure from Dongfang Qing.
"Shut up!" Dongfang Qing snarled fiercely, desperately activating his Essence Blood, striving to boost his strength, blood kept flowing from the corners of his mouth.
"Slash!" Gu Chenfeng shouted coldly, the white Sword Aura exploded with dazzling brilliance, unleashing overwhelmingly powerful force.
The next second.
Dongfang Qing’s Energy Sword Slash shattered instantly, unable to withstand it.
"This can’t be!" Dongfang Qing was utterly terrified; he couldn’t believe that even desperately activating his Essence Blood, he still couldn’t defeat Gu Chenfeng.
Can an Early Stage of Golden Core truly be this strong?
