The power of the five elements complemented and restrained each other. With the three elements combined into one, Gu Fei's strength had been raised to a terrifying realm. Powerful yuan qi fluctuations swept out in all directions like a gale with astonishing power.
The three-colored sword light in his hand was like a divine weapon that could split the heavens and the earth, blasting out a terrifying sword light that could tear the world apart. It actually broke through the power of the Eight Symbols, causing Li Lingfeng, who controlled the Purple Gold Eight Trigrams, to suffer a great impact.
However, the mountain qi that had been broken by Gu Fei's sword exploded with a loud bang. The torrential power also made Gu Fei take three steps back. The skin and flesh that had been tempered like fine iron also cracked open with bloody marks.
"Roar!" Gu Fei let out a roar. Under his roar, the whole arena shook violently like a big tree in a gale. The sound shook the sky. The young disciples who were watching the battle below the arena were immediately shaken by the sound wave, causing their ears to buzz. They were inexplicably terrified.
Gu Fei was like the reincarnation of a god of war. He was so ferocious that it caused people's hearts to palpitate. He slashed out seven times in a row as if he had gone mad. These seven strikes could be said to be the Seven Shocking Strikes, condensing all the three elemental Yuan Qi in his body. The three elemental energies were all released in these seven strikes.
The three-colored sword light was like a startling rainbow, tearing the void and sweeping in all directions. The cold sword qi spread out, causing people to feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
Without any suspense, the other seven trigrams also collapsed under the sword strike of Gu Fei. The power that represented the Seven Symbols of Heaven and Earth immediately exploded. The seven forces of heaven and earth intersected with each other, forming a vast energy storm. This energy storm swept out like a surging wave, instantly drowning Gu Fei.
Even if his body had copper skin and iron bones, the moment the terrifying energy storm hit him, Gu Fei suddenly felt as if his whole body was going to be torn apart by this terrifying power. All the bones in his body made cracking sounds, giving him a terrible feeling as if his tendons, bones, and flesh were being torn apart. Pain, all the skin, flesh, tendons, and bones of his whole body were suffering from the impact of the terrifying energy storm. His skin cracked open, and his skin, which was comparable to ordinary magic treasures, actually burst open.
From this, one could imagine just how powerful the impact would be when the power of the Seven Symbols exploded. Even though Gu Fei's body was already strong enough to directly withstand ordinary magic treasures, he was still injured.
If it was an ordinary cultivator, then that cultivator would have probably been torn into pieces by the energy storm that erupted from this place a long time ago.
Li Lingfeng's complexion immediately turned deathly pale when his Eightfold Divine Art was broken. Each of his divinatory diagrams was shattered by Gu Fei's unparalleled sword light, causing his body to shake violently and take a step back. The eight divinatory diagrams were dispersed, but Li Lingfeng was forced to take eight steps back.
Blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth and dripped down the front of his clothes, giving Li Lingfeng a somewhat tragic feeling. The Purple Gold Eight Symbols in the sky had already become dim, and it was on the verge of collapse.
"Break for me!" Within the energy storm formed by the power of the Eightfold Symbols, a furious roar suddenly rang out. The spectators below the arena were all startled. In the midst of the roar, a wild and ferocious aura spread out from the arena. Even the high level disciples paled.
The wild and unparalleled Gu Fei was awe-inspiring.
As soon as the shout resounded out, everyone below the arena saw a dazzling three-colored sword light cleave straight up from the energy storm, and a shocking sword qi tore through layer upon layer of enormous waves of energy before slashing onto the Purple Gold Eight Symbols in the sky with a bang.
The Purple Gold Eight Symbols was directly blasted flying, and it instantly became dim and lusterless. Moreover, the essence, energy, and spirit attached to the Purple Gold Eight Symbols instantly dispersed.
Li Lingfeng's head droned while the world spun around him, and he was unable to distinguish what was going on. His figure swayed repeatedly as if he was drunk, and he staggered a few steps back and almost fell on the arena.
"This Gu Fei is so ruthless! He actually dispersed the essence, energy, and spirit condensed on the Purple Gold Eight Symbols with a single strike of his sword. This is no different from causing Li Lingfeng's painstaking efforts to be wasted. "
Some high level disciples that knew a thing or two about equipment refinement couldn't help but whisper in discussion. The Dao of equipment refinement was to use one's own essence, energy, and spirit to refine a magic tool day and night so that it could be connected with one's own aura. By attaching a strand of divine sense onto the magic tool, one would be able to move the magic tool freely like one's own arm.
If the essence, energy, and spirit that had been fused into a magic tool were dispersed, then not only would the magic tool's master suffer an extremely great impact, even the magic tool itself would instantly lose its spirit energy and spirituality, and it would be no different than an ordinary weapon.
If one wanted to make a magic tool possess spirituality once more, then one had to fuse the essence, energy, and spirit into the magic tool once more. It could be said that this magic tool of Li Lingfeng's was half useless.
After the Purple Gold Eight Symbols were blasted flying, the three-colored sword light condensed by Gu Fei with the fusion of the three elements was unable to maintain its state any longer, and it dispersed.
The three-colored sword light transformed into specks of qi that flickered indeterminately like fireflies, and they once again entered Gu Fei's body. When the Eight Trigrams Divine Ability was destroyed, the storm of energy on the arena instantly vanished without a trace, and the energy of the eight symbols that Li Lingfeng had driven over returned to the heavens and the earth.
At this moment, blood seeped out from all seven apertures on Gu Fei's face, and his appearance was terrifying to the extreme. When all the disciples that were spectating the battle below the arena saw Gu Fei's appearance, they instantly exclaimed in shock.
Zhao Zirou who was mixed within the crowd was even more flustered. She didn't know to what extent exactly Gu Fei had suffered an injury, and this caused her to be extremely worried.
Swoosh! Gu Fei whose entire body was bathed in blood took a stride forward, and he'd already arrived before Li Lingfeng, whereas, Li Lingfeng was already on the verge of collapse at this moment.
The Eight Trigrams Divine Ability was destroyed, causing Li Lingfeng's essence, energy, and spirit to be severely injured, whereas, essence, energy, and spirit were the source of magic energy, and Dao Energy and magic energy were all refined from essence, energy, and spirit.
At this moment, Li Lingfeng already didn't have the strength to fight any longer, and he who'd practically exhausted his magic energy would probably be unable to even endure a single punch from Gu Fei.
"You've … lost!" Gu Fei no longer had any thoughts of attacking, because although he had destroyed Li Lingfeng's Eight Trigrams Divine Ability, he had already exhausted 95% of the Essence in his body.
However, Gu Fei still had the strength to fight. This was because even if his Essence was completely exhausted, he still had a ridiculously powerful body. Just by relying on the strength of his physical body, he could still contend with ordinary martial cultivators for a while without being defeated.
His powerful physique allowed Gu Fei to unleash his combat prowess to the fullest. His entire body had been tempered to the point where it was tough and soft at the same time. When it was tough, it was like metal, impervious to blades and spears, and difficult to be injured by Dharma treasures. When it was soft, it was like water, without any force.
He could control all the muscles and bones in his body freely, and every part of his body could deal a fatal blow to the enemy. This was the terror of a martial artist.
"I've lost …" Li Lingfeng was a little absent-minded. He couldn't accept this reality. He knew that Gu Fei was very powerful, but Gu Fei's strength had exceeded his expectations.
Geniuses were all arrogant. Li Lingfeng was undoubtedly a genius among the younger generation of disciples in the Taixuan Sect, but this genius had been defeated today.
Li Lingfeng slowly calmed down, and the trace of frustration and discouragement that had welled up in his heart disappeared in an instant. He adjusted his mentality in an instant.
The legend of invincibility was just a legend. In reality, which genius had not suffered setbacks? Setbacks were not scary. What was scary was the mentality you used to face setbacks.
Thinking of this, Li Lingfeng no longer felt the slightest sense of defeat. His eyes narrowed into two slits, and two rays of light that were as sharp as knives looked at Gu Fei.
"You're very strong. The next time we fight, I will defeat you. You will be my whetstone, a whetstone that will allow me to go further on the path of cultivation," Li Lingfeng said indifferently.
"Very good!" There was no expression on Gu Fei's face, nor did he say anything superfluous. However, the strong desire to fight in his tone was not concealed in the slightest.
The path of martial arts was different from the path of cultivation. Martial techniques were battle techniques. They were the strongest, most direct, and most primitive techniques that humans had comprehended in the ancient times, when they fought against the heavens, fought against the earth, fought against demons, ghosts, and thousands of ferocious beasts. They were the most powerful, direct, and primitive techniques that humans had comprehended in the endless slaughter.
