Martial Arts Overlord-Chapter 739 - 737: You Will Never Surpass Me!

People were still in shock from Luo Feng injuring Yi Tian. On the battleground, however, the atmosphere abruptly changed.

"The Life-and-death monument is set. Today, only one of us will walk off this stage alive," Luo Feng said, looking at Yi Tian. His expression was cold, his eyes simmering with killing intent.

Yi Tian wiped the blood from his mouth, his right palm covering the wound on his left shoulder. As his brow furrowed, the wound was enveloped in Mysterious Ice, staunching the flow of blood.

After doing this, Yi Tian looked at Luo Feng, his eyes bloodshot and his expression savage. "No need to rush. The real show has just begun. I told you, today, you *must* die!"

As the words left his lips, Yi Tian’s body trembled slightly, his hair flying in the cold wind. A terrifying aura erupted from within him. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

BUZZ!

The blue halo around Yi Tian gradually turned violet-blue. A terrifying coldness spread outward, and the surrounding pools of water on the battleground were slowly covered in ice crystals. Blue-violet snowflakes even drifted beyond the pools.

"Such terrifying coldness!"

From the mountaintop, the Martial Artists watching the battle could clearly feel this chill. Some Martial Artists with lower cultivation levels trembled all over, hastily circulating Protective Gang Energy to ward off the cold.

"How can Yi Tian possess the aura of a True Yuan Realm Martial Artist?" Yang Dingtian wondered. He waved his hand, casting a tangible Yuan Qi shield to protect everyone from the encroaching chill. Gazing at Yi Tian on the stage, his thick eyebrows furrowed deeply.

Cold Moon Marquis Yue Chongshan nodded and spoke solemnly, "It must be primal Yuan Qi that Azure Cloud Marquis infused into Yi Tian’s body."

BOOM!

Yang Dingtian slammed his palm into the ground, creating a large crater. He stared daggers at Azure Cloud Marquis on the opposite side. "That old scoundrel! How dare he resort to such despicable means!"

"Father, can Luo Feng... win?" Yue Haitang asked.

Yue Chongshan glanced at Haitang and shook his head. "Now, we can only leave it to fate."

Hearing this, Haitang’s face stiffened. Looking at Luo Feng’s figure on the stage, she bit her lip so hard that a trickle of blood flowed from the corner, unnoticed.

"Feng Er will be fine; fortune will protect him," Luotian said, gripping Yang Qing’s hand comfortingly. Yet, even his own voice trembled slightly.

On another side, Xue Wu Qing, the elder of Floating Snow Hall, said to Azure Cloud Marquis, "So, you were prepared all along."

Azure Cloud Marquis’ eyebrows twitched. With a cold voice, he said, "Victory defines kings, defeat brands outcasts—this is an immutable truth. It seems Yue Chongshan has yet to grasp this."

Speaking of this, Azure Cloud Marquis glanced at Luo Feng and frowned. "However, this Luo Feng is indeed extraordinary, to have pushed Tian this far."

Xue Wu Qing nodded, looking at Luo Feng’s figure on the stage, a cold glint in his eyes. "This boy cannot be left alive." Others might not know, but he knew very well that Luo Feng’s Golden Crow Great Annihilation Saber technique was from the same Secret Manual he had lost to Shui Linglong. The mere thought of this made Xue Wu Qing wish for Yi Tian to slay Luo Feng immediately.

Azure Cloud Marquis’ eyes flashed. "Do not worry. Yi Tian is not indecisive. This Luo Feng will vanish from the world forever today."

People on the nearby mountains also sensed the change in Yi Tian’s aura.

"What powerful momentum! Yi Tian is now comparable to a Martial Artist at the Sixth Level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm. What’s happening? Did he break through on the spot?"

"I don’t think so. This Yuan Qi doesn’t belong to Yi Tian. I guess it’s Yuan Qi that Azure Cloud Marquis forcefully infused into him."

"So that’s how it is! This is blatant cheating! Even if Yi Tian wins, it will be a dishonorable victory."

"Yi Tian is now a Sixth Level Spiritual Rotation Realm Martial Artist. Luo Feng is definitely going to lose. His luck is truly terrible."

"He’s not losing to Yi Tian, but to Azure Cloud Marquis."

FLUTTER, FLUTTER...

On the stage, light purple snowflakes fell from the sky. In moments, the entire stage was covered with a three-inch layer of frost; the terrifying coldness grew increasingly intense.

"Luo Feng, let’s see if you still dare to be arrogant!" Yi Tian stood amidst a storm of purple snow, looking at Luo Feng with a proud gaze, an expression of utter confidence on his face.

"You talk too much!" Luo Feng growled coldly. His saber, carrying a terrifying wave of heat, slashed out.

"You’re courting death!" A cold smile appeared on Yi Tian’s face. His Green Shadow Sword trembled slightly, and an azure Sword Qi cut through the storm, slicing towards Luo Feng.

BOOM!

With a loud noise, Sword Qi and Saber Qi collided, sending a violent blast radiating in all directions.

RUMBLE!

The shattering Qi Force, already pushing the stage to its limits, caused it to collapse completely. Several Demon Beasts in the water that couldn’t dodge in time were sliced open by the Qi Force. Blood gushed out, staining large swathes of water red.

WHOOSH, WHOOSH...

Beside the bloodied water, several enormous shadows approached, dragging the dead Demon Beasts underwater. In the blink of an eye, the water’s surface returned to calm, leaving only a few ghastly white Demon Beast skeletons.

WHOOSH!

Despite his Sword Qi being blocked, Yi Tian didn’t seem to care. A glint flashed in his eyes as he leaped into the air.

"Thousand Shadow Raid Stream!"

Mid-air, Yi Tian swung his Green Shadow Sword. Countless streams of Sword Qi formed a vortex that roared towards Luo Feng. The force of this sword strike was several times more intense than before. The vortex of Sword Qi resembled an azure serpent, roaring out amidst an endless snowstorm—unstoppable.

Luo Feng’s gaze focused. He held his saber with both hands. Nine golden suns materialized behind him as he slashed out.

"Nine Suns White Flame Saber!"

RUMBLE! The massive blade of white flame tore through the sky, slashing towards the vortex of Sword Qi.

Shattering a large portion of the Sword Qi vortex, the white flame blade finally reached its limit, allowing the remnant Sword Qi to slash down towards Luo Feng.

WHOOSH!

Employing the Sky Cloud Step, Luo Feng drifted backward, dodging the sporadic remnants of Sword Qi, and reappeared ten paces away.

At this moment, a layer of white frost covered him. His palms and the Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber were frozen together.

Such terrifyingly cold Qi! Luo Feng frowned slightly, feeling the flow of his Yuan Qi stagnate. A chilling coldness invaded his body, making him feel frozen to the core. Luckily, he had cultivated the Divine Dragon Nine Changes, which strengthened his physique. If it were an ordinary Martial Artist, they would have likely been frozen into an ice sculpture.

With a tremor, Luo Feng activated the Divine Dragon Nine Changes. A surge of warmth spread from his heart, dispelling the invading coldness.

But at this moment, Yi Tian was even more shocked than Luo Feng. He had already used the primal Yuan Qi infused into him by Azure Cloud Marquis, forcibly elevating his cultivation to the Sixth Level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm. He had thought killing Luo Feng would be effortless, but in reality, he only held a slight advantage.

I can’t afford to delay any longer. I must kill this kid as soon as possible! Looking at Luo Feng, Yi Tian’s gaze turned incredibly cold. The Yuan Qi of a True Yuan Realm Martial Artist is too potent; it’s not something I can withstand for long. If this drags on, and the Yuan Qi backlashes, the consequences will be unimaginable!

"Luo Feng, I admit that you’re strong," Yi Tian said, his eyes glinting coldly. An even more powerful aura erupted from his body as he spoke. The wind and snow on the stage deepened in color, causing many in the audience to shiver uncontrollably. "Given enough time, I’m sure I wouldn’t be your opponent. Unfortunately, you’ll never live to see that day."

"Cold Stream Ultimate Flash!"

Locking his gaze onto Luo Feng, Yi Tian pushed the Yuan Qi in his body to its absolute limit and slashed out with his sword.

SIZZLE!

With a piercing sound, a massive azure Sword Qi burst from the tip of his sword, shooting straight towards Luo Feng. The intense coldness made the surrounding wind and snow swirl wildly.

CRACK!

The battered stage, unable to withstand such terrifying coldness, froze solid and developed alarming cracks.

This strike could instantly kill even a peak Fifth Level Spiritual Rotation Realm Martial Artist. This kid is doomed, Xue Wu Qing, an elder of the Floating Snow Hall, thought, a cold smirk playing on his lips, as if he could already see Luo Feng being torn apart by the Sword Qi.

Yang Dingtian, Yue Chongshan, and the others all wore grave expressions. The power of this sword strike far exceeded the limits of a Fifth Level Spiritual Rotation Realm Martial Artist. They didn’t know if Luo Feng could withstand it.

Yue Haitang’s gaze was fixed on Luo Feng, her fingers tightly clasped. Luo Feng, you must survive... she prayed silently.

Just then, the unexpected occurred.

HUM!

On the stage, an unseen air current centered on Luo Feng, whirling violently in a funnel shape. The Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi crazily poured into him, its force even influencing the incredibly fast azure Sword Qi, slowing it down.

"This is...!" Yue Haitang abruptly shot up from her seat, her face a mask of disbelief and intense surprise, her cheeks flushed crimson.

"Feng Er!" Yang Qing also stood up.

"Incredible!"

"To think... he’d do it at a time like this..."

The whole Phoenix Soaring Mountain erupted in exclamations, wave after wave, all eyes fixed on Luo Feng.

At this moment, standing on the stage, Luo Feng’s clothes whipped about loudly in the airflow. As the massive vortex of Yuan Qi surged into his body, a powerful aura erupted from him. The intense fluctuations of Yuan Qi were overwhelming, like a turbulent river, vast and unending, in no way inferior to Yi Tian’s current presence.

Yue Chongshan looked at Luo Feng on the stage, a smile spreading across his face as he turned to the opposing Azure Cloud Marquis. "To think he’d break through at this very moment... Heh, you may have calculated everything, Azure Cloud Marquis, but I bet you didn’t foresee this."

Meanwhile, Azure Cloud Marquis, who had been brimming with confidence moments ago, now wore an extremely unsightly expression.

Luo Feng hadn’t anticipated it either. The immense pressure from Yi Tian had unexpectedly allowed him to thoroughly refine the residual medicinal power of the Consolidation Pill within his body, pushing his cultivation straight into the late stage of the Fifth Level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm!

Feeling the vigorous Yuan Qi coursing through his body, Luo Feng looked at Yi Tian opposite him, his sharp gaze almost tangible.

"Golden Crow Annihilation Slash!"

Taking a step forward, the ten golden suns behind Luo Feng converged, transforming into a Three-legged Golden Crow. It swept out with domineering momentum, dyeing half the sky a brilliant gold.

BOOM!

The Golden Crow Saber Qi and the azure Sword Qi collided, both exploding on impact. Luo Feng stood his ground, while Yi Tian staggered back three steps before barely regaining his footing.

"Yi Tian, you rely on the strength of others yet dare to be so arrogant. For that alone, you will never surpass me! Face my saber again!" Luo Feng laughed heartily, slashing out again with his saber.

"You’re talking bullshit!" Yi Tian’s eyes were practically bleeding. He desperately tried to mobilize the primal Yuan Qi within him—the power belonging to Azure Cloud Marquis—intending to go all out and defeat Luo Feng.

Suddenly, his face flushed crimson, and he spat out an arrow of blood. He had forced the mobilization of Yuan Qi beyond what his meridians could handle, injuring them in the process.

PUCHI!

A flash of saber light, and his Protective Gang Energy shattered.

"AAARGH!" Yi Tian screamed miserably. A saber wound over a foot long was slashed across his chest, blood gushing out. His body, now beyond his control, tumbled off the stage. SPLASH! He plunged into the cold, deep water...
