Supreme Dragon Martial Soul-Chapter 303: How Can One Cultivate Without Avenging Wrongs!
Chapter 303: Chapter 303: How Can One Cultivate Without Avenging Wrongs!
"Heh, only now do you understand?"
Qi Guyun sneered disdainfully, sensing the powerful aura rising from Lin Xiaoyun. His eyes narrowed slightly, "What? Even at this stage, you still want to challenge me?"
Lin Xiaoyun walked forward expressionlessly, still exuding a calm demeanor, but now deeper and more restrained. His eyes leveled with Qi Guyun’s:
"Everything I obtained from Crown Prince Hall, this hand is enough to return it to you. From this moment on, we owe each other nothing. But the humiliation you inflicted on me—I will personally take it back today!"
BOOM!
As he spoke, Lin Xiaoyun’s body trembled slightly, and a nine-star purple stone tablet manifested. A vast and overwhelming aura swept forth, storming the entire martial arena. His bloodstained figure stood there like a mountain, like an insurmountable thousand-foot peak!
Qi Guyun cast a glance at Lin Xiaoyun, his expression darkening as he smirked coldly:
"Heh, who do you think you are? Even at your peak, you wouldn’t be my match, let alone now!"
"Since you don’t value your life, then come on! I’ll deal with you first, and then I’ll kill that useless Luo Cheng!"
HUM!
As soon as his words fell, Qi Guyun’s Essence Energy erupted completely. A powerful sword aura radiated in all directions, violently clashing with Lin Xiaoyun’s momentum, creating visible ripples in the air!
"This is bad! Why isn’t Senior Brother Lin admitting defeat yet? Qi Guyun is ruthless and won’t show mercy!"
Seeing Lin Xiaoyun still intent on fighting, Chen Lingyu stomped her foot anxiously, biting her red lips lightly. "No, I have to stop him!"
She was about to rush forward when Luo Cheng extended an arm to stop her.
"Luo Cheng? What are you doing!"
Luo Cheng shook his head, his gaze fixed on Lin Xiaoyun atop the stage: "This is his choice. If he doesn’t fight, this will likely become the Heart Demon that haunts him for the rest of his life."
Those words from Qi Guyun reminded Luo Cheng of Ji Yuanhao!
They were the same—the same arrogance, the same insolence!
He could completely empathize with Lin Xiaoyun’s current emotions.
To leave a grudge unsettled—how could one continue cultivating?
Isn’t cultivation about pursuing clarity of thought, releasing the suffocating rage within, and seeking unrestrained freedom?
"But..." Chen Lingyu hesitated.
Luo Cheng shook his head and said, "You can’t stop him. Look!"
Chen Lingyu turned back to see Lin Xiaoyun, draped in bloodstained clothes, already charging toward Qi Guyun.
"Fight!"
With eyes blazing like torches, Lin Xiaoyun roared thunderously. His figure leaped skyward, and a leg came crashing down with the momentum of a thunderstorm. The sheer force of it caused the entire arena to tremble violently.
"Hmph!"
Qi Guyun snorted coldly, swinging his sword with a single motion.
SWISH!
A streak of sword energy shot straight into the sky, splitting the leg force in two.
"Do you think an attack like this can threaten me?"
Qi Guyun laughed coldly before flipping his wrist and unleashing an even more condensed sword aura. It was so swift it created a terrifying sonic boom!
"Purple Extreme Break!"
Lin Xiaoyun bellowed deeply, throwing a ferocious punch. Boiling purple light transformed into a heavenly rainbow that clashed violently with the sword aura.
BOOOM!
As soon as the two forces collided, they erupted into a ferocious explosion. Qi Guyun, with the slight advantage in cultivation and being at his Peak state, forced Lin Xiaoyun to retreat repeatedly under the impact.
Qi Guyun only stepped back once before stabilizing his stance. He pointed his sword at Lin Xiaoyun and said indifferently:
"Lin Xiaoyun, I’ll give you two choices now. From today onward, swear allegiance to me, and I’ll let you remain in the Crown Prince Hall with your current honor and status. Otherwise..."
CRACK!
Qi Guyun swung his sword, and a deep scar was carved into the ground immediately.
"Heh, you want me to remain your loyal dog? The outcome is undecided, yet you speak as if you’ve won. Let’s see how premature that is! Take another of my moves!"
For the first time, anger showed on Lin Xiaoyun’s face. He laughed coldly, his figure suddenly floating into the air. The purple glow of the stone tablet behind him burst forth, elevating his aura infinitely high. Another leg came crashing down toward Qi Guyun with devastating momentum.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM...
The power of this kick was astonishing, like a volcanic eruption or a thunderstorm descending. It felt like a mountain falling from the heavens, attempting to crush everything below.
CRACK!
The ground beneath Qi Guyun’s feet could no longer bear the weight, fracturing inch by inch.
"Courting death!"
Qi Guyun’s expression darkened as his Essence Energy frantically surged into his Treasure Sword. He swung heavily at the mountain-like leg power.
BANG!
The mountain-like leg force shattered, distributing Qi Force in all directions, forcing Qi Guyun to retreat three steps.
"It’s not over yet! Stacked Waves Firming the Sky!"
Lin Xiaoyun roared, his eyes flashing brilliantly. He unleashed leg after leg toward Qi Guyun with terrifying force, each attack like a mini-mountain stirring the wind and clouds, engulfing everything in sight!
Qi Guyun’s gaze grew icy as he wielded his sword, carving one exquisite arc after another through the air.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
The sharp and condensed sword energy pierced upward, immediately splitting apart three leg attacks.
But Lin Xiaoyun’s assault didn’t relent; instead, it became even fiercer.
Fourth! Fifth! Sixth! Seventh!...
Tenth!
In the end, the sky above the arena was filled with leg shadows. The ocean-like pressure made the martial arena tremble uncontrollably!
BOOM BOOM BOOM...
At first, Qi Guyun could repel the attacks with ease. But as the leg power exceeded the tenth strike, his expression faltered, and he was forced back repeatedly. Each retreat left a deep crater where he landed!
"That’s the Six-star Leg Technique—Stacked Wave Dominating Leg! The leg power can stack continuously. It’s said that when mastered to Perfection, one can unleash eighteen leg shadows in a single breath!"
"Stacked Wave Dominating Leg, combined with the boundless Essence Energy of the Qingxuan Technique, complements each other perfectly. Lin Xiaoyun’s ability to unleash over ten leg shadows at once proves he’s achieved Great Success in Stacked Wave Dominating Leg. No wonder he dares to challenge Qi Guyun!"
"But Lin Xiaoyun is injured; prolonged battle isn’t in his favor. It’s clear he’s wagering everything on a life-or-death gamble, trying to end the fight quickly with his ultimate technique! Now it’s up to Qi Guyun to see if he can withstand it!"
The crowd was astonished. No one expected Lin Xiaoyun, despite his injuries, to unleash such overwhelming attacks. Many admired his courage and resolve.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM...
Lin Xiaoyun advanced further, already unleashing his sixteenth leg. His battle power surged to another peak. As the leg descended, it felt like tidal waves and hurricanes collapsing the heavens!
BANG!
Qi Guyun was forced backward, his aura destabilized, edging closer to the arena’s boundary.
"Damn it!"
At last, Qi Guyun couldn’t suppress his rising fury. His gaze turned ice-cold as his body trembled, and blood-red streams of energy surged into the sky!
ROAR!
Within the blood-red energy, a Demon Wolf with nine stars embedded in its body, its fur fully blood-red, howled toward the heavens. Its aura fused completely with Qi Guyun, causing his momentum to skyrocket!
Summoning his Martial Soul, Qi Guyun unleashed an effortless yet devastating sword slash upward.
SWISH!
A blood-red streak of sword Qi soared skyward, slamming against the descending leg force. With a deafening explosion, countless cracks erupted across the arena.
PUH!
Lin Xiaoyun spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. His body reeked of an oppressive blood scent, but his eyes, fixed on Qi Guyun, burned brighter than ever.
"Break for me!"
With a primal roar, Lin Xiaoyun unleashed his eighteenth leg.
At that moment, his body trembled violently as if breaking through an invisible barrier. The Heaven and Earth Essence Energy around him funneled into his strike as if drawn by a vortex. His entire body’s Essence Energy surged like an erupting volcano!
"You’re looking for death! Sword Storm!"
A ferocious roar erupted. Qi Guyun’s sword energy exploded entirely as he slashed out a stunning arc with his sword!
SWISH-SWISH-SWISH-SWISH...
Immediately, countless sword energies spun violently in the air, converging into a massive conical tornado that roared skyward, meeting the mountain-like descending leg shadow head-on.
BANG!
Under countless gazes, the two forces simultaneously erupted!
Lin Xiaoyun’s figure was sent flying out of the arena, blood spraying in midair.
Qi Guyun’s face turned pale as he involuntarily spewed blood as well. His eyes locked onto the fallen Lin Xiaoyun, brimming with fury and indignation!
A mere ant dared to wound him!
"Take another of my sword strikes!"
Overwhelmed with rage, Qi Guyun lashed out with a sword from afar, a sharp and bloodthirsty streak of sword Qi flying straight toward Lin Xiaoyun.
WHOOSH!
All of a sudden, Luo Cheng, who had been silently observing the battle, appeared in front of Lin Xiaoyun. Drawing the Flame Trace Sword, he swung it toward the blood-red sword Qi!
