Fortunately, when Zi Shang's iron fist smashed over, Duan Lingtian had slightly let go of the hand that held the sword. Otherwise, his entire arm might have been crippled.
A grade three spirit sword could continuously break under the bombardment of Zi Shang's strength, but his arm couldn't.
Even if he possessed an extraordinary cultivation, his body was still made of flesh and blood, and it was utterly impossible for him to compare with a spirit weapon.
Whoosh!
From the moment Duan Lingtian drew his sword to being injured by Zi Shang's punch, it had only occurred in the blink of an eye, whereas, the phenomenon in the sky above Duan Lingtian was slowly condensing into form as well.
The 30 plus ancient horned dragon silhouettes hadn't completely appeared when Duan Lingtian had already executed the movement technique, Whirlwind, and retreated to the distance in a sorry state.
Even though the blood on the web of his hand that held the sword had been stopped by his Origin Energy, he still felt his entire arm go numb, and he was unable to exert the slightest strength.
"Fourth level of the Void Interpretation Stage!"
Duan Ling Tian could not help but gasp as he looked at Zi Shang who had a pair of lifeless eyes like a puppet.
When Zi Shang attacked Bai Hao earlier, he'd suspected that Zi Shang's strength was at the fourth level of the Void Interpretation Stage or above.
Now, he'd experienced it himself and completely confirmed it.
Even though Zi Shang's iron fist that smashed out like a cannonball only contained Origin Energy, the strength of this Origin Energy was comparable to a fourth level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist.
No matter if it was a spirit weapon or Concept, a fourth level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist was capable of exerting the strength of 60 ancient horned dragons when using only Origin Energy.
Such strength was almost two times the strength of Duan Lingtian's full strength.
Instantly, Duan Lingtian felt a wave of powerlessness in his heart.
"Hahahaha …."
At this moment, extremely arrogant laughter sounded out abruptly from the depths of the mind of Zi Shang who was like a puppet, yet it didn't sound out.
If Duan Lingtian heard this arrogant laughter, he would surely be able to discern that this laughter belonged to Zi Shang himself.
Even though Zi Shang didn't have control over his body now, he was still able to see everything in the outside world.
"Ghost Elder, even if you can't kill him, I hope you can seriously injure him … I want to step on his head and ruthlessly humiliate him, letting him know the difference between him and me!"
Zi Shang's voice continued to reverberate, and it was filled with ruthlessness.
"Are you ordering me around?"
The sinister and old voice harrumphed coldly, sounding very displeased.
"No … I'm begging you, Ghost Elder."
Zi Shang immediately panicked.
Although the old man's remnant soul couldn't take over his body, the old man could use self-mutilation to turn him into an idiot. That wasn't something he wanted to see.
Moreover, to a certain extent, the old man's existence could be considered one of his trump cards.
This trump card was very useful.
Just like now.
Originally, it was utterly impossible for him to go against Duan Lingtian's illusory realm soul skill with his Spiritual Force at the ninth level of the Void Initiation Stage.
But it was precisely because of the existence of the old man's remnant soul that not only did it allow him to escape calamity, it even allowed him to willfully crush Duan Lingtian.
Even though his body wasn't controlled by him now, he still felt extremely satisfied, as if the person that crushed Duan Lingtian from all directions wasn't Ghost Elder but himself.
"After his strength increased to the fourth level of the Void Interpretation Stage, his Spiritual Force increased along with it. My soul skill is utterly useless against him … Since my soul skill is useless, it also means that it's not very likely for me to defeat him."
Duan Lingtian stared at Zi Shang from afar who had a soulless gaze, and he had an expression of fear.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian naturally didn't know that the person controlling Zi Shang's body now wasn't Zi Shang, but another extremely terrifying existence.
Merely a strand of the remnant soul was capable of allowing Zi Shang's ninth level Void Interpretation Stage Origin Energy and Spiritual Force to directly improve to the fourth level of the Void Interpretation Stage.
Thousand Illusions!
A dim light flickered within the eyes of Duan Lingtian who didn't believe it, and he executed his soul skill once more.
But unfortunately, his Spiritual Force had just constructed a completely new illusory space when it was directly shattered at the instant it came into contact with Zi Shang.
"Duan Lingtian's secret technique seems to be useless against Zi Shang!"
A Void Interpretation Stage Inscription Master that had been stretching out his Spiritual Force since the beginning couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
Even though he didn't know what Duan Lingtian's secret technique was.
But his Spiritual Force was able to notice that Duan Lingtian's Spiritual Force was directly crushed when it approached Zi Shang, and it was utterly unable to execute the secret technique.
Duan Lingtian's secret technique is useless against Zi Shang?
The words of this Inscription Master quickly spread out.
At the beginning, most people only knew a little.
In the end, through the explanations of the other Inscription Masters, everyone came to a sudden understanding and knew that the secret technique Duan Lingtian executed was closely related to Spiritual Force.
"I never imagined that Duan Lingtian is still capable of releasing his Spiritual Force … Looks like he's an Inscription Master as well."
"Such a monstrous genius in the Martial Dao is actually an Inscription Master. His natural talent is truly shocking."
"Duan Lingtian's secret technique is useless, yet Zi Shang's secret technique is … Looks like there's no suspense in this battle. Zi Shang will surely win! "
…
The entire Cage Battle Arena was filled with similar discussions, and more than 90% of the people felt that Duan Lingtian would lose without a doubt.
"Brother Duan is in big trouble this time."
Elder Kong took a deep breath, and his eyes contained slight fear mixed within.
"Elder Brother Duan!"
Feng Tianwu had a worried expression.
Only Feng Wu Dao had a calm expression as he looked at the scene before him, and it was as if the matter had nothing to do with him. He completely didn't have the intention of helping Duan Lingtian.
"Duan Lingtian, if you're really unable to defeat him, then admit defeat … There's no need to persist. Obtaining the second in the Dynasty Martial Competition is already not bad. "
Everyone from the Darkstone Empire, including the King of Yong, persuaded him via voice transmission one after another.
"Congratulations Imperial Uncle, you've taken a peerlessly good disciple."
The Darkhan Dynasty's Emperor congratulated the black clothed old man by his side.
"This is the fortune of our Darkhan Dynasty."
The old man tried his best to maintain a calm expression, but his excited eyes had imperceptibly betrayed him.
"You're right. With Zi Shang's strength, it isn't difficult for him to stand out in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties. It's even to the extent that relying on his secret technique, it's extremely likely that he'll be able to charge for the first in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties! "
As he spoke up to here, the Emperor had an excited expression.
The first in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties?
What sort of honor was that!?
A young expert that obtained this honor would also mean that the young expert would become the number one young expert in the ten great Dynasties including the Darkhan Dynasty, and the young expert's name would spread throughout the ten great Dynasties and go down in history.
When he thought of how his personal disciple had the opportunity to obtain such an honor, the excitement in the black clothed old man's eyes grew deeper.
If his disciple was really able to obtain the first in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties, then as the Master, his name would surely spread throughout the ten great Dynasties and be known by future generations.
When one lived, one had to live with vigor!
If one was able to leave behind some traces in this world, then even if one died in the future or transformed into a pile of dirt, one wouldn't have the slightest regret.
"Brother."
Zi Yan looked at Zi Shang with a face filled with adoration, and her pink fists were clenched tightly from excitement.
"Why? Why don't I have a secret technique like this to rely on? "
On the other hand, the Second Prince of the Darkhan Dynasty, Bai He, who sat by Zi Yan's side stared at Zi Shang with an expressionless face, yet the depths of his gaze seemed to contain boundless envy mixed within.
If it was said that there was someone that was comparatively composed on the first-class spectating area that belonged to the Darkhan Dynasty, then it would only be Bai Hao.
Even though he'd successively lost at the hands of Zi Shang and Duan Lingtian, Bai Hao wasn't dejected in the slightest, and his entire body was instead filled with battle intent.
He was a person that became stronger when facing a strong opponent, and during these past few years of wandering in the various Dynasties, he'd already become indifferent to victory and defeat.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to possess such a shocking cultivation at such an age.
Swoosh!
Zi Shang moved, and he once again transformed into a white bolt of lightning that arrived before Duan Lingtian in a short moment.
Bang!
He smashed out with his fist once more, and the Origin Energy that skyrocketed seemed to have transformed into dazzling and gorgeous fireworks that gave rise to a wave of continuous sounds of air exploding as it swept towards Duan Lingtian.
On the other hand, Duan Lingtian utterly didn't have the time to dodge, and he could only swing out his sword once more. At the same time, the Origin Energy beneath his feet skyrocketed, causing the sound of wind and thunder to explode out as he hurriedly utilized the force to flee.
Bang!
This time, Zi Shang's fist descended like a meteor, and it directly blasted the grade three spirit sword in Duan Lingtian's hand flying.
Swoosh!
The palm of Duan Lingtian's hand that held the sword was blasted open once more, and it caused fresh blood to drip from it.
"Could it be that I really have to admit defeat?
At this moment, Duan Lingtian felt a wave of powerlessness in his heart.
At this moment, Zi Shang was utterly not someone he could go against, and he'd utilized all his ability earlier, yet he was still unable to gain the slightest advantage.
A strength comparable to a fourth level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist was too terrifying.
The strength of 60 ancient horned dragons attacked, and it was extremely shocking!
He didn't have the slightest strength to fight back.
"Admit defeat."
Right when Zi Shang moved once more and transformed into a bolt of lightning that flashed towards Duan Lingtian once more, a clear voice transmission sounded out by Duan Lingtian's ears.
Duan Lingtian was able to discern that this was Feng Wu Dao's voice transmission.
Duan Lingtian sighed in his heart, then he opened his mouth and was already intending to admit defeat.
Right at this moment, the Spatial Ring on Duan Lingtian's finger that ceaselessly trembled caused Duan Lingtian to be unable to refrain from being slightly hesitant. "What's actually going on with the Devilseal Tablet? Why would it become restless after the small black dot appeared between Zi Shang's brows? "
At this moment, the Devilseal Tablet within the Spatial Ring gave Duan Lingtian the feeling of a hunter that was impatient to kill its prey after discovering it.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian understood the pattern of the Devilseal Tablet's restlessness to a certain extent.
After the small black dot became the black colored flame brand, the Devilseal Tablet became even more restless, and now that Zi Shang had attacked him, the Devilseal Tablet seemed as if it had gone mad, and it rammed randomly within the space within the Spatial Ring.
"It wants to come out just like that?"
In a flash, a crazy thought arose in Duan Lingtian's heart. "I wonder what terrifying thing will happen if I take out the Devilseal Tablet …"
The Devilseal Tablet was something Duan Lingtian obtained from the Swamp of Death in the Crimson Sky Kingdom all those years ago.
He still remembered that the place he obtained the Devilseal Tablet was an underground palace.
At that time, his body was almost seized by the strand of soul sealed within the Devilseal Tablet.
