The Lingwu Emperor's figure was neither tall nor mighty, but when he stood up, it was as if a giant was supporting the sky. The entire Lingwu Imperial Palace was trembling, and a terrifying aura attacked the surrounding air, stirring up countless ripples that turned into huge waves.
Under the gaze of Chen Zong's sharp eyes, he could only vaguely see the Lingwu Emperor reach out his right hand. His five fingers changed countless times in an instant, like a soaring eagle, like a giant whale coming out of the water. It was mysterious beyond compare.
The wind and fire swords that seemed to be able to destroy everything paused for a moment. Then, the Lingwu Emperor's changing palms continuously slapped and bombarded, melting like ice and snow, unable to hurt him at all.
Chen Zong's pupils shrank slightly. The Lingwu Emperor was really strong.
His battle intent exploded, and his sword intent soared to the sky.
The eighth step of the [Thunder Steps of the Nine Heavens]!
In an instant, Chen Zong turned into a flash of lightning. His speed seemed to have increased, and his sword slashed across the sky, leaving behind a faint black trace.
Kill!
The Lingwu Emperor's lips curled into a smile. His shoulders seemed to sway imperceptibly, and his figure flickered slightly in an instant, becoming somewhat blurry. When Chen Zong's sword slashed past, it dissipated like a bubble.
Chen Zong, on the other hand, seemed to have been hit by a huge force. He flew out uncontrollably, and his blood and Qi shook incessantly.
In an instant, the sword slashed past. The Lingwu Emperor not only dodged, but also counterattacked. Fortunately, Chen Zong reacted in time and barely managed to block with his sword. Otherwise, he would have been seriously injured.
The Lingwu Emperor was slightly surprised that his opponent had blocked his attack. However, this kind of battle was more interesting.
His figure flickered again, and the Lingwu Emperor took the initiative to attack, closing in on Chen Zong.
Fast!
Fast!
Extremely fast!
The two of them fought in close quarters. Countless sparks flew, and countless waves of energy surged. It was as if a vacuum ripple had exploded, layer upon layer.
The entire Lingwu Imperial Palace was filled with sparks and ripples. Two blurry figures were constantly crisscrossing and attacking in all directions. The terrifying power seemed to want to smash the Lingwu Imperial Palace into ruins.
However, no one knew what material the Lingwu Imperial Palace was made of. It was incomparably sturdy. Under the terrifying impact of the two people, it was not damaged at all.
"Good, good, good. I didn't think that there would be such a genius among the latecomers." The young Lingwu Emperor laughed in an extremely carefree manner. He was at the top of his generation, suppressing an entire era. It was lonely at the top, and he had long since felt lonely.
After countless years, only the Sword Emperor was able to defeat all the peerless geniuses of the various eras and fight fiercely with him. However, the Sword Emperor was still no match for him and was defeated in the end.
Now, the Lingwu Emperor felt that the kid in front of him was much stronger than the Sword Emperor and was worth him going all out.
Boom!
His aura soared to the sky, as if it had shattered the dome of the Lingwu Imperial Palace. The terrifying aura suppressed all directions, and the heavens and the earth seemed to be under his control.
At the same time, Chen Zong also activated his full strength, releasing an extremely shocking sword aura. An illusory sword appeared around him, emitting an extremely shocking sharpness that could cut through heaven and earth and tear everything apart.
Time after time, Chen Zong's potential was stimulated. Unknowingly, he was improving continuously. Even if it was just a little bit of improvement, it had a significant impact.
It was like a sword embryo that was constantly being forged and hammered into a treasured sword, and then sharpened into a real sword.
The Lingwu Emperor did not use weapons. He himself was the best weapon.
As soon as he started to attack, the Lingwu Emperor displayed an extremely shocking martial art. It could only be described with four words: extensive and profound.
Every move was a move of a different martial art, and they all contained the essence and mystery of different martial arts.
Hard, strong, soft, weak, fast, slow, explosive … …
Flexible and changeable, seemingly endless. The Sword Emperor was defeated by this kind of attack. Because there were too many changes, too fast, and it was difficult to keep up. Gradually, he fell into a disadvantage and was finally defeated.
The title of Martial Emperor Ling was not an exaggeration. He was extremely talented and had a high level of comprehension. When he practiced martial arts, he was like a fish in water. In addition to his amazing background and cultivation, when he was young, he had already read a lot of ancient books. Moreover, he had practiced and comprehended the martial arts in those ancient books to a very high level.
There were so many martial arts that it was as if there were stars in the sky. What was even more shocking was that the Lingwu Emperor did not use them inflexibly, but had truly grasped the essence of them. He used them as if they were floating clouds and flowing water, and changed them freely. This made it even harder for people to guard against and resist.
If one could not keep up with his rhythm, they would quickly be suppressed by the opponent and fall into a disadvantage. In the end, they would be defeated or even killed.
However, Chen Zong's Infinite Sword Chain was similar to the Lingwu Emperor's complex and changeable style of martial arts.
Of course, the real difference was that the Lingwu Emperor's style of martial arts was complex and changeable, and there was a sense of disorganization. On the other hand, Chen Zong's style of swordsmanship did not become the core, and contained a myriad of changes.
With the Infinite Sword Chain as the core, it absorbed the mystery and essence of various other martial arts, constantly improving and perfecting this swordsmanship, and raising its level, so that it contained more essence and changes.
As soon as they exchanged blows, Chen Zong was pleasantly surprised. The Lingwu Emperor was also pleasantly surprised. It was an unexpected feeling.
One core was changeable, and the other core was unchangeable.
Changeable and unchangeable seemed to be the opposite of each other, but they also had the same effect.
Excited, the two temporarily put aside other things and displayed their core martial arts to their heart's content, and continued to exchange blows.
The Lingwu Emperor's martial arts attainments exceeded Chen Zong's expectations. Chen Zong felt that his Infinite Sword Chain would be even more refined.
The Lingwu Emperor was also surprised by Chen Zong's swordsmanship. He displayed his martial arts to his heart's content, and the intense battle continued.
Time passed slowly. The time in the King-Naming Pagoda was different from the time in the outside world. One day in the King-Naming Pagoda was only a short period of time in the outside world.
However, it was obvious that Chen Zong's time in the King-Naming Pagoda had surpassed that of the Taixuan Saint. There were already some whispers, guessing where Chen Zong had broken through.
The Taixuan Saint was expressionless. No one could tell what he was thinking. However, as he stared at the King-Naming Pagoda, a sharp, cold light flashed in his eyes from time to time, as if it could tear the void apart.
His heart was not calm at all.
He would not allow anyone to surpass him.
Even though he was only fourth on the Nine-Colored King-Naming Pagoda and could not defeat the Eternal Night Demon Lord, the Sword Emperor, and the Lingwu Emperor to reach first place, he still wanted to become the top genius of this generation. He wanted to surpass his generation and surpass the previous generation.
The Sky Frost Saint Son and the Ancient Saint Son were also surprised. Chen Zong seemed to have been in the King-Naming Pagoda for a longer time than the Taixuan Saint Son.
Although being in the King-Naming Pagoda for a longer time did not necessarily mean that one had reached a higher level, it was normal for people to be evenly matched and fall into a bitter battle. It was difficult to determine the winner in a short time.
However, they both had a feeling that perhaps Chen Zong had surpassed them, or even the Taixuan Saint Son.
If that was true, they would only be happy because the Taixuan Saint Son would no longer be the person standing at the top.
Gong Tianxing's expression was very ugly.
Could it be that after so many times, Chen Zong had grown to the point where he could threaten his brother, God Gong?
No!
Gong Tianxing shook his head violently. Chen Zong definitely could not surpass his brother, who was known as the reincarnation of a God.
Regardless of what others thought, in the King-Naming Pagoda, in the Lingwu Palace, Chen Zong and the young Lingwu Emperor's battle did not stop. It was extremely intense.
For a time, relying on their respective martial arts, the two of them actually didn't fall into a disadvantageous position in close combat, and were evenly matched.
Chen Zong's swordsmanship was improving, and so was the young Lingwu Emperor.
Potential!
It was constantly being stimulated, breaking the limit, surpassing the limit, and increasing the upper limit.
"Fighting with you is indeed satisfying. Next, have a taste of my self-created Lingwu Sanshou," the Lingwu Emperor said as he attacked.
Immediately, his aura changed. It became more erratic, but also more condensed. This abnormal feeling made Chen Zong feel very conflicted, and he immediately raised his guard to the extreme.
In an instant, the Lingwu Emperor attacked. It was like a crane spreading its wings. It looked simple, but its trajectory was clear and mysterious. It gave Chen Zong a feeling that it was in harmony with the heavens and earth, as if it had flown from the surface of the void.
Everything could not resist its power. It would be pierced and torn apart.
It was an extremely terrifying attack. The crane's beak was like a sharp sword, and the crane's wings were like blades.
This attack contained some of the mysteries of the sword and the saber.
Pierce!
Tear!
In an instant, Chen Zong attacked with his sword.
The sword light was endless, layer upon layer, like silk, smoke, and fog. Every sword seemed to weave, intertwining endlessly, and continuously weakening the power of the Crane Hand.
The Lingwu Emperor's eyes lit up slightly. This move was really mysterious. It seemed to have no beginning and no end, and there were signs of it forming its own body.
Moreover, the Lingwu Emperor could see that the potential of this move was still there. It had not been developed to the extreme. If it had been developed to the extreme, perhaps it would have formed its own body, an independent cycle, without beginning or end, and it would be difficult to break through.
Even though it had not reached the extreme, its power was amazing. It also weakened the power of the Crane Hand. When it reached Chen Zong, it only had less than 30% of its power left, and it was defeated by Chen Zong with one sword.
Wuji!
The sword light was continuous, changing, and contained the mysteries of initiative. Every sword was as delicate and flexible as the work of nature. It was full of changes, as if it was covering all directions, and also as if it was attacking from the front.
This sword made the Lingwu Emperor's eyes even brighter, and it shot out.
The second move of the Lingwu Sanshou: Graceful Hand!
When the Graceful Hand was used, it was as if a huge black bird swept across the sky. Its speed was faster than the Crane Hand, and it was sharper than the Crane Hand.
In essence, the Graceful Hand was the upgraded and strengthened version of the Crane Hand. Its power was even more tyrannical.
The Graceful Hand was like a flying bird, constantly tearing and attacking. The sword light was shattered one by one, but at the same time, the Graceful Hand was also affected, and its power was constantly weakening.
The sword light turned, and Chen Zong used the Infinite Sword. Countless sword lights gathered into one in an instant. This sword light seemed to be majestic and mighty, and could shatter space. It also seemed to be condensed into a line, and could pierce through all things. It mercilessly attacked the Lingwu Emperor, and pierced through the Graceful Hand without mercy.
