"Explode!"
At that critical moment, Yan Chihuo bit on the tip of his tongue. The zhen Qi inside his body exploded like a volcano, bringing up a sky-piercing blade intent. It seemed like he was going to block out Ye Chen's fatal sword attack with his exploding zhen Qi power.
Swoosh!
The Star Scar Sword slowed down a bit, but it still stabbed in. The sword light was pointing right at Yan Chihuo's chest.
"Open!"
Having gained a little bit of time, Yan Chihuo did not have time to think. He threw out his burning red iron fist, landing on that sword light.
A metal clashing sound was heard. The Star Scar Sword in Ye Chen's hand had been bent by the fist power and bounced off. His whole body had been blown away, and Yan Chihuo was even worse off. His left fist was covered in blood, and there was a bone-deep sword mark on it. If it were not for his high cultivation and the top rank Earth Realm martial art from the Fire Spirit Martial School, that sword attack would have broken his left arm.
Watching what had happened on the battling platform, everyone was shocked.
"What is going on? This is too crazy! One sword attack had wounded Yan Chihuo? "
"Could it be that Ye Chen had not used all of his power before, and was just playing around?"
In everyone's mind, Ye Chen's flying art and skills were slightly better than Yan Chihuo's, but their overall power was almost the same. In some ways, Ye Chen was still not as good as Ye Chen. However, right from the beginning, Ye Chen had overturned everyone's judgment and wounded Yan Chihuo with an unbelievable sword attack.
Yan Chihuo's eyes were burning with fire, "You have successfully pissed me off. Now, you will have to face my anger!"
With a loud yell, Yan Chihuo pushed his zhen Qi to the seventh rotation. That long blade in his hand that was covered in flames suddenly turned into a roaring fire dragon. It attacked towards Ye Chen with a momentum that could crack open mountains and break the sky.
Right then, Yan Chihuo had used all of his battling power, which was at least thirty percent more powerful than when he was facing Li Daoxuan and Lin Yun. His spirit, Qi and soul had all exploded.
Seeing that, Ye Chen's expression did not change at all. His body kept flashing and drifting, easily dodging that burning attack. Then, he shook his Star Scar Sword. That bright sword light spread out like rain, covering Yan Chihuo, who was not far away.
Yan Chihuo sneered, "You think you can hurt me again? What a joke. I, Yan Chihuo, will never suffer a second loss in the hands of the same person." After saying that, a scarlet wave of fire spurted out from his back, propelling his body forward explosively as he slashed with his saber in the air.
"Instant Kill Golden Flame Slash!"
The golden-red saber projection sliced through the air, turning this part of the world into a vacuum.
Ye Chen looked very calm as his index and middle fingers rested on the tip of the sword handle. That sword attack landed right in the middle of the golden-red saber light. The air started to ripple. After a light popping sound, the saber light suddenly shattered. It was split open in the middle like a piece of cloth that had been torn apart.
"Why does it seem like there is a shadow of the Silent ace attack in there?"
Li Daoxuan looked surprised. That sword attack of Ye Chen's seemed to have nothing to do with his Silent ace attack. However, in his eyes, it clearly contained the mystery of hiding the sword light, which was extremely tough and penetrating.
He had guessed it right. Ye Chen had indeed added a bit of the Silent ace attack into it, but it was not as powerful as Li Daoxuan's. But combined with the Sky Shattering Clouds sword movement and poetic perspective, this sword attack was not only tough, but also had the effect of tearing everything apart. It was the evolved version of the Sky Shattering Clouds.
Yan Chihuo was dazed for a second. He had never fought with Ye Chen before, so he did not know how powerful he was. But after fighting with him for a while, he felt that his opponent's mature battle experience was definitely not something that ordinary people could compare with. Every time, he would always be able to cause the most damage with the least cost.
With Ye Chen as his biggest enemy, Yan Chihuo looked extremely serious as he crazily activated his Nine Turn Fire Spirit Art. "Seven Turns of Fire Spirit Art, Red Flame Battle Body!"
Every time his Nine Turn Fire Spirit Art increased by one turn, his power would increase tremendously. At the seventh turn, he could already beat Li Daoxuan in its normal state. Now that he had evolved the seventh turn to the high rank, the Red Flame Battle Body, all of his zhen Qi seemed to be burning up. His aura only increased, and very soon, he had broken through his original level.
Crack!
The platform under his feet could not handle that aggressive and burning power anymore. Countless twisted cracks appeared on it as the fire Qi rose up.
In less than half a blink of an eye, Yan Chihuo's aura and battling power had increased to the next level. He roared as his whole body jumped up from the ground. That bright red long blade sliced through the air, dragging out a light black light mark in the air. The light mark was not affected by the gravity, which had increased the speed of the blade light drastically. Aurora Fire Lightning!
"Fire Cloud Earth Crack Cut!"
Off the stage, all of the young warriors who had seen Yan Chihuo's powerful attack had lost their composure. They had not expected that Yan Chihuo would be this horrifying when he had used his real power. He was like a fire demon. Lin Yun, who had also trained fire element zhen Qi, was no different from a kid in front of him.
Focusing his eyes slightly, Ye Chen's body became blurry, turning into layers of shadows that spread out in all directions. It was like a startled moth flying in the sky. Yan Chihuo, who was standing in front of him, laughed wildly, "Do not waste your time. Once the Fire Cloud Earth Crack Cut is performed, the ghosts and the gods will be destroyed!"
Just as he finished talking, the blade light spread out, looking like a fire cloud in the sky, burning the sky red. Shoo! Shoo!
Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!
Pieces of black shadows had been burned into smoke one after another, disappearing completely.
The people in the audience seats could not help but scream. The battle between Yan Chihuo and Ye Chen had been full of twists and turns. At first, Ye Chen had the upper hand, but now, it was Yan Chihuo who had the upper hand. And it seemed like Yan Chihuo's advantage was much more obvious.
All of the people from the Sky Cloud Martial School looked worried. Right now, it would be a lie if they did not hope for Ye Chen to win the first place. As long as he could beat Yan Chihuo, Ye Chen would be able to fight against Sikong Sheng. By then, no matter if he won or lost, it would be enough to shock the whole South Rudra Region and bring endless luck to the Sky Cloud Martial School. However, Yan Chihuo was just too powerful.
Only Xu Jing's expression did not change at all. Ye Chen's real power was way more powerful than everyone had imagined. This was her instinct about Ye Chen.
The Separating Shadow Flying Art, which had been restricted to high-rank Earth Realm, was broken. Ye Chen was a bit surprised, since his Separating Shadow Flying Art was different from normal flying arts. It had reached its current rank with the help of the Flo Rudra Three Mysterious Spell, which allowed it to maintain the effect of the Separating Shadow Flying Art, and its speed was no weaker than other flying arts of the same rank.
Of course, it was not enough to make him change his expression. He backed out of the way, and his Sky Shattering Cloud, which had been activated with his sixty percent sword intent, was ready to attack. He threw out a sword attack onto that aggressive fire cloud.
Swoosh!
The fire cloud was blown back.
Yan Chihuo's Fire Cloud Earth Shattering Cut contained the poetic perspective of clouds and fire, while Ye Chen's Sky Shattering Cloud contained the poetic perspective of clouds and thunder. The two overlapped with each other. Playing with the poetic perspective of clouds in front of Ye Chen was no doubt asking for trouble.
"What?!"
Yan Chihuo backed out quickly, avoiding the attack of the fire cloud.
The leader of the Fire Spirit Palace's expression changed drastically as he stared at Ye Chen. He was very clear about Yan Chihuo's Fire Cloud Earth Shattering Cut, which had reached a very high level of the poetic perspective of clouds. Added with the help of the poetic perspective of fire, it was way more powerful than just two poetic perspectives. However, under Ye Chen's sword attack, the poetic perspective of clouds had been used by him, and had been pushed back. How could he not be shocked?
"Mortal Realm Martial Arts focus on the aura, and there are very few poetic perspectives. As for Earth Realm Martial Arts, without a poetic perspective, one would not be able to reach its peak. How could this guy's poetic perspective of clouds be more powerful than the red fire? How did he train it?" There were countless powerful warriors in the Fire Spirit Palace, and a lot of them had completed the poetic perspectives of Earth Realm Martial Arts. After witnessing and hearing about Yan Chihuo's talent, he knew that among the young generation, he was only second to Sikong Sheng. The leader of the Fire Spirit Palace did not believe that anyone could surpass his head disciple, Yan Chihuo, in terms of poetic perspectives.
Yan Chihuo did not believe it, so he yelled, "Just now, my attacks were too scattered. Let's see how you can break this attack. Fire Cloud Golden Flame Cut!"
It also contained the poetic perspective of clouds and fire, so the power of the Fire Cloud Golden Flame Cut was extra concentrated. It was thrown out with sixty percent of the peak blade intent, attacking toward Ye Chen.
"Stubborn!"
His body was as straight as a sword as Ye Chen held his Star Scar Sword with both of his hands. The air around the sword body twisted and collapsed rapidly, looking like an ocean of clouds rolling. Then, lightning flashed, jumping around.
Pap!
A one meter thick lightning light shot out, which was actually formed from sword Qi.
The Sky Shattering Clouds used the poetic perspective of clouds as the main one, and the poetic perspective of thunder as the support. However, the way it was presented was the poetic perspective of thunder, and the poetic perspective of clouds as the support. Therefore, at first glance, one would think that it was just the poetic perspective of thunder, but it was actually the poetic perspective of clouds combined with the poetic perspective of thunder. It could be called the poetic perspective of thunder and clouds.
The lightning light attacked crazily, landing right in the middle of the golden-red blade light. Countless arm-thick electric lights exploded, looking like snakes and spears, very eye-catching.
Boom!
The blade light was shattered. Yan Chihuo had blood dripping out of the corner of his mouth as he backed out a couple of steps.
He could not believe that his ace attack was completely useless in front of Ye Chen. It had been completely suppressed, which was something that he could not accept.
After shattering Yan Chihuo's ace attack with one sword attack, Ye Chen shook his head secretly. If it were someone else, perhaps he would have been beaten by Yan Chihuo. Unfortunately, his opponent's poetic perspective of clouds was not as powerful as his, which was why he was naturally suppressed. Therefore, the power of his poetic perspective of fire had been greatly reduced.
The world of martial artists was always complicated. Power was only the foundation, and the most important thing was how to turn one's disadvantage into one's advantage, not being suppressed.
According to Ye Chen's knowledge, Clasping Yuan Realm warriors had only touched the surface of the poetic perspective. Once they reached the Astral Reaching Realm, the poetic perspective would be the king. Without a high poetic perspective, one's power would be greatly reduced, unless one's foundation was extremely powerful and could ignore other people's poetic perspectives. Just like the Minor Blood Demon Separating Great Art, which was a special Earth Realm martial art. It did not care about poetic perspectives, but only focused on increasing the warrior's power, which was the foundation.
Therefore, for high-level warriors, the basic power was important, but the comprehensive ability was equally important. The former could increase one's natural advantage, while the latter could make up for one's weakness and win against the strong.
With both, one would be a powerful warrior.
"I have not lost yet. Flame Cut!"
After comprehending the peak level sixty percent blade intent, Yan Chihuo's mentality was extra solid, and he would not be affected easily. Right then, he knew that the poetic perspective of clouds would not work on Ye Chen, so he used the pure poetic perspective of fire and threw it out together with his ace attack. The fire wave was extremely powerful, spreading out everywhere.
"Poetic perspectives alone are the hardest to understand. Your poetic perspective of fire is not even at the tip of the iceberg." Thunder light exploded as Ye Chen threw out a sword attack, cutting open the fire wave. His body flashed as he performed his Separating Shadow Flying Art. Layers of shadows spread out, spreading out in all directions.
Ting!
Without seeing the sword light, Yan Chihuo's red long blade flew out of his hand.
