Lianyao felt that Xiao Chen was courting death. She looked at Xiao Chen with a sneer as if she was looking forward to Xiao Chen being killed by Bai Qiuran on the spot.
Xiao Chen naturally didn't know what Lianyao was thinking because he didn't have the time to pay attention to this woman. From the beginning to the end, Xiao Chen's eyes were locked on Bai Qiuran.
In the face of Xiao Chen's gaze and his casual words, the killing intent in Bai Qiuran's heart had risen to the extreme. Not only did he kill Bai Qiuyue, but he also dared to be so arrogant in the face of death.
When their eyes met, the killing intent in Bai Qiuran's eyes seemed to have turned into two sharp blades. However, Xiao Chen didn't seem to feel Bai Qiuran's killing intent at all. His expression didn't change at all, and the corners of his mouth even curled into a faint smile.
Half a year was enough for the situation to change a lot. For example, now that he was facing Bai Qiuran, Xiao Chen didn't feel as great pressure as he did half a year ago.
The difference between a ninety-nine-meter talent and a ninety-eight-meter talent seemed to be only one meter, but the difference was far from that simple. Bai Qiuran believed Bai Qiuyue's words and gave Xiao Chen half a year. It could be said that this was Bai Qiuran's biggest mistake.
In this half a year, Xiao Chen had survived the most dangerous period. It also allowed Xiao Chen to grow and possess the ability to contend with Bai Qiuran. Although Xiao Chen's strength wasn't necessarily stronger than Bai Qiuran's, it definitely wouldn't be easy for Bai Qiuran to kill Xiao Chen. This was the change brought about by half a year.
Xiao Chen was still calm in the face of Bai Qiuran. In response, Bai Qiuran snorted coldly and said, "Xiao Chen, today is the day you die."
With that, Bai Qiuran directly attacked. She took a step forward and threw a punch at Xiao Chen.
In the face of Bai Qiuran's attack, Xiao Chen didn't reply. However, he also moved. Instead of dodging, he moved to meet Bai Qiuran.
Seeing that Xiao Chen didn't dodge and wanted to meet Bai Qiuran head-on, the surrounding disciples were stunned. They all looked at Xiao Chen as if they were looking at an idiot.
This guy is definitely stupid. He actually dares to meet Bai Qiuran head-on? Does he really have a death wish? Many of the disciples had such thoughts in their hearts.
Since Bai Qiuran was able to become one of the Saints on the Holy Rankings, her strength was definitely undeniable. The reason was simple. The Holy Rankings of the Central World were created by the Will Of The Heavenly Way, so there was no possibility of falsification. Without strength, no matter how high one's status was, it was impossible for one to enter the Holy Rankings.
Under everyone's gaze, Xiao Chen and Bai Qiuran's fists collided in midair. However, the expected scene of Xiao Chen being severely injured didn't happen. Along with a muffled explosion, the ground where they stood collapsed and layers of ripples appeared in the space.
To everyone's surprise, Xiao Chen was indeed at a disadvantage in the collision of their fists. Xiao Chen was forced back several steps by Bai Qiuran, but he didn't suffer any injuries.
This result left countless people dumbfounded. He had blocked it. He had actually blocked Bai Qiuran's punch. Moreover, he was only at a disadvantage and did not suffer any substantial injuries.
"How is this possible …" Unable to believe what they saw, some of the disciples couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
Not only were the disciples surprised, but Bai Qiuran also didn't expect this outcome. Or perhaps, as the person involved, he understood how powerful Xiao Chen was.
In the collision of their fists, Bai Qiuran clearly sensed that Xiao Chen's strength wasn't much weaker than his. Both of them were on par.
Unable to accept this fact, Bai Qiuran stared at Xiao Chen in silence. At the same time, even though Xiao Chen didn't say anything, he felt relieved.
Xiao Chen was naturally aware of the progress he had made in the past six months.
The Yin Wind Stone was indeed powerful. Not only could it help one break through and condense the spiritual energy in one's body, but Xiao Chen also felt that the Yin Wind Stone also had a certain effect on physical cultivation after refining many of them. However, it wasn't that obvious.
It could be said that in the past six months in the Heavenly Yin Valley, Xiao Chen had improved in all aspects. Not only did his cultivation increase, but his spiritual energy also became more condensed and his physical strength also improved a lot.
It was completely different from half a year ago. However, Xiao Chen hadn't exchanged blows with Bai Qiuran, after all, and he couldn't judge the depth of a person's strength based on their aura alone.
That was why when facing Bai Qiuran's attack, Xiao Chen chose to clash head-on in order to test the gap between him and Bai Qiuran.
The result was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise for Xiao Chen because after this clash, Xiao Chen discovered that the gap between him and Bai Qiuran was very small.
It was undeniable that Bai Qiuran was indeed stronger than him, but definitely not by a lot. At the very least, Xiao Chen was capable of fighting Bai Qiuran. Besides, as long as he was given more time, Xiao Chen was certain that he would be able to make up for the last bit of gap between them and defeat Bai Qiuran.
Xiao Chen was relieved, but Bai Qiuran's feelings were the complete opposite. A person whom she viewed as an ant actually grew to this extent in just six months. Bai Qiuran didn't expect it and wasn't willing to believe it. However, the truth was right before her eyes and she couldn't refute it at all.
Dammit …. She cursed in her heart. At the same time, Bai Qiuran understood that she couldn't give Xiao Chen any more chances. Otherwise, she would really be shooting herself in the foot.
Xiao Chen's growth was truly too swift, and it was swift to the point Bai Qiuran was caught off guard. She couldn't give Xiao Chen any more chances or time. She had to kill this fellow today no matter what.
As she thought in her heart, Bai Qiuran released a layer of faint fluctuations of lightning. It was the energy of the Laws of Lightning. At the same time, her aura rose incessantly, and it didn't take long for her to attain perfection in the Dao Emperor Realm.
As a Chosen on the Hallowed Rankings, even though Bai Qiuran's cultivation was only at the perfection of the Dao Emperor Realm, her aura wasn't inferior to an ordinary Saint Realm expert.
Someone at the perfection of the Dao Emperor Realm actually possessed aura comparable to an ordinary Saint Realm expert. This was how terrifying a Chosen on the Hallowed Rankings was. The expressions of all the disciples in the surroundings changed when they sensed Bai Qiuran's shocking aura. At the same time, some of them even spoke out.
"Senior Brother Bai is infuriated. Looks like Xiao Chen will definitely die today."
"Exactly. How could he possibly go against Senior Brother Bai? Senior Brother Bai is a Chosen on the Hallowed Rankings."
