The lightning claw descended from the sky like a cage. Chen Zong's eyes flashed with a sharp light as his two swords broke through the air. The cross-shaped sword light seemed to be able to split the heavens and earth apart. The astonishing sword energy not only shattered the lightning claw, but also the minor true intent contained within it.
Minor True Intent and True Power were two different types of power. Between the two, it was usually Minor True Intent that could break through True Power, but True Power had a hard time dealing with Minor True Intent. Chen Zong's Void Sword Energy was different. It was a combination of three different types of power, and was even more tyrannical.
The two swords turned into a dense sword-light, like a swarm of snakes coming out of their holes, rushing towards the short Martial Scholar. The speed of the swords made the other party's hair stand on end. It was much faster than before.
Xiahou Yuan frowned slightly, surprised by the combat power displayed by Chen Zong.
Slash, slash, slash!
The two swords were terrifying, and each slash was fatal, directly suppressing the short Martial Scholar.
"Middle-stage Nine Star!" The other Martial Scholar from Xiahou's lineage was shocked. Without hesitation, he flicked his finger, and a lightning bolt pierced through the air with shocking power.
With a flash of sword radiance, the lightning was directly shattered. The short guru wanted to take this opportunity to escape, but he found that another sword radiance was extremely sharp. It circled around him, as if drawing a circle on the ground, and restrained him, making him unable to retreat.
When Chen Zong's Pseudo Spirit Energy increased from early-stage Eight Star to late-stage Eight Star, his combat power with the Sword Qi of the Void also increased greatly. He could barely reach mid-stage Nine Star, and with the addition of Half-step Sword Force, he was completely at mid-stage Nine Star.
The short Martial Scholar was only early-stage Nine Star, so the difference was obvious.
The other Martial Scholar from Xiahou's lineage was even stronger, having mid-stage Nine Star combat power. As soon as he joined the battle, he joined forces with the short Martial Scholar and immediately blocked Chen Zong's two swords. They seemed to be gradually gaining the upper hand.
As Chen Zong attacked with his swords, he moved his feet and approached the other Pseudo Transcendents of Xiahou's lineage. It looked like he couldn't bear the pressure of two Martial Grandmasters and was constantly retreating. There was no doubt about it.
The Skylight City Lord's frown deepened. The strength that Chen Zong had displayed was unexpectedly strong, but he did not think too much about it. He was only surprised by Chen Zong's talent and potential.
Xiahou Yuan also frowned. This seemed to have exceeded his expectations.
"He actually came over."
"Attack!"
The remaining pseudo-Transcendents of Xia Hou's lineage were all Eight Star Warriors. Seeing that Chen Zong was forced to retreat under the suppression of two Grandmasters on their side and was even approaching them, they were all extremely excited.
Attack!
Bolts of lightning pierced through the air and blasted toward Chen Zong, intending to severely injure Chen Zong before capturing him.
Unexpectedly, under their concentrated attacks, Chen Zong's figure was engulfed by a beam of light. Following that, he seemed to distort for a moment before disappearing. This scene made Xiahou Yuan's eyebrows twitch slightly. He immediately captured Chen Zong's figure and attacked without hesitation, piercing through space with a finger.
Xiahou Yuan was a Ninth Layer Mortal Realm master. Although Chen Zong's Phantom Light Nine Steps was exquisite, it was nothing in his eyes. He could easily see it, capture it, and hit it with his finger. However, it was dispelled by the Sky Tower's shadow, unable to cause any damage to Chen Zong.
Chen Zong suddenly bared his fangs, like a tiger pouncing on a flock of sheep. He raised his two swords and countless sword lights flashed, making it difficult for people to distinguish between the real and the fake.
Chi chi chi!
Under the sharp sound of the air being torn apart, blood spurted out and dyed the surroundings red like a curtain.
In the blink of an eye, the other Eight Star Pseudo Transcendents were all hit by the sword. One by one, their throats were cut open by Chen Zong's two swords.
Under normal circumstances, a Middle Nine Star Master would find it difficult to kill more than a dozen Eight Star Masters in the blink of an eye. However, Chen Zong was different. His realm was high, and his sword was extremely fast.
He released his Spiritual Energy and sensed everything around him. No blind spots could escape his detection. It was more detailed than his eyes.
Under such circumstances, there was an obvious gap in their combat strength. Who could resist him?
In the blink of an eye, Xiahou's Pseudo Transcendents were only left with two Martial Masters.
The two Grandmasters were both shocked and inexplicably indignant.
They were all killed. In the blink of an eye, they were all killed.
"You deserve to die!"
In anger, the two Martial Masters did not hold back. Every move they made was even more powerful.
Previously, they had held back part of their strength. It was not to kill Chen Zong, but to injure him and capture him alive.
Boom boom boom!
The Martial Saint Palace's Xiahou lineage mainly cultivated thunder-attribute martial arts. When he attacked with all his might, it was as if a series of thunderbolts had exploded. The surrounding ground was shattered, and the rocks were reduced to dust. Dust flew into the air, and countless lightning bolts swam about. It was a terrifying sight.
Chen Zong's expression was calm. With only his two swords, he completely blocked the two Martial Masters. He did not show any signs of being defeated like before.
Chen Zong needed a strong enough opponent to test his cultivation and increase his combat strength. Two Martial Masters were just right.
"He's using them as whetstones." Xiahou Yuan was experienced and insightful. He immediately saw through Chen Zong's intentions, but he didn't take any action. This was because he couldn't do anything to Chen Zong after several failed attempts.
He had a Spirit Artifact, but unfortunately, it was an offensive Spirit Artifact, not a Spirit Artifact used to restrain others.
Now, he could only hope that the two Martial Masters could take down Chen Zong.
"Secret Art!" Xiahou Yuan shouted.
The two Martial Masters did not hesitate and immediately used the Thunder King Transformation.
The Thunder King Transformation was a superb secret technique. Within the Martial Saint Palace, only the members of the Xiahou bloodline had access to the complete cultivation method. Almost every expert of the Xiahou bloodline would cultivate the Thunder King Transformation. However, some of them would only be taught the first stage, while others could cultivate up to the second or third stage.
The two Martial Masters were not young. They were in their eighties or nineties. Although their talents were not that outstanding, they had cultivated for a longer time, which made up for it.
Moreover, they were one of the few Martial Masters in the Xiahou Lineage. Naturally, they would receive special training. Therefore, they had already cultivated the Thunder King Transformation to the third stage.
Shadows of lightning filled the air and appeared behind the two Martial Masters. A terrifying aura immediately spread out. Sand and stones flew, dust and smoke billowed, and countless lightning bolts jumped around.
Then, the Thunder King's shadow merged into the two Martial Masters' bodies and condensed on the surface of their bodies, forming a Thunder Armor.
This was the third stage of the Thunder King Transformation.
The first stage was to summon the Thunder King's shadow. The second stage was to merge the power of the Thunder King's shadow into the user's body. The third stage was to merge the power of the Thunder King's shadow into the user's body and further condense it into a Thunder Armor.
For Eight Star Martial Masters, the second stage of the Thunder King Transformation could increase their battle strength by a small level. For example, they could increase their battle strength from the early stage to the mid stage, or from the mid stage to the late stage.
However, for Nine Star Martial Masters, the second stage of the Thunder King Transformation did not increase their battle strength significantly. Only the third stage of the Thunder King Transformation could increase their battle strength by a small level.
After using the third stage of the Thunder King Transformation, the two Martial Masters' battle strength increased significantly. One reached the mid stage of Nine Star, while the other reached the late stage of Nine Star. This immediately increased the pressure on Chen Zong.
Under the terrifying Thunder Minor True Meaning, the power was even more shocking. Chen Zong felt his body go numb. An invisible force kept invading his body, trying to cause damage.
The Sword of Void trembled and directly dispersed the invading force.
Without hesitation, Chen Zong used the Sword Speed True Meaning.
Although he had not been able to use the Sword Speed True Meaning to create a Pseudo Lingwu, his sword speed could be increased by at least thirty percent if he only used the Sword Speed True Meaning.
The thirty percent increase in sword speed was very significant, especially since Chen Zong's sword speed was already extremely fast.
His arms could not be seen. There was only sword light filling the sky. Countless sword shadows pierced through the sky like a raging ocean. All of them were aimed at the two Martial Masters who had used the Thunder King Transformation.
When the speed reached a certain level, it would be very difficult to deal with. Even if there was an opening, it would be covered up by the extreme speed.
Fighting one against two, Chen Zong completely blocked off the attacks of the two Martial Masters who had used their secret arts to increase their power.
All of a sudden, the two swords that were extremely violent rushed towards the late-stage Nine-Star Martial Master and forced him to step back. Chen Zong pulled back his sword with his right hand. As the sword vibrated slightly, a beam of light flashed across the spine of the sword and went straight to the tip of the sword.
It pierced through the air. A cold star light was extremely sharp. It pierced through the sky and stabbed towards the mid-stage Nine-Star Martial Master in a shocking manner.
Secret Sword Point Star!
And it was the Point Star that had been improved by Chen Zong.
It was a low-grade Pseudo Lingwu, but the disadvantage was obvious. Every time it was used, it would consume a lot of energy. If it did not consume a lot of energy, the Point Star would not be that powerful. It would be better not to use it at all.
Chen Zong was very familiar with this move. He had already grasped the essence of it. Now that he had become stronger in all aspects, he was qualified to make some improvements to it.
After Chen Zong's improvements, the Point Star's power had increased slightly, but the energy consumption had decreased a lot.
Now, he only needed to consume 20% of his energy to use this move. It was extremely powerful.
The sword pierced through the air. Under the Sword Intent and the Void Sword Force's amazing penetrating ability, it was almost invincible.
The half-step sword momentum was pushed to the extreme. It was as if the sword of heaven and earth was crushing down. The opponent was stunned for a moment and had no chance to dodge.
It pierced through the opponent's throat and came out from the back of his neck. The horrifying Void Sword Force went straight into the opponent's brain and crushed it.
The other Martial Master was about to break his teeth. Chen Zong did not give him any chance. The two swords pierced through the air and swept across the sky.
The blazing Cross Sword Light was extremely bright. It was as if it had split the sky and the earth into four parts. This move contained the Sword Intent, which was even more powerful.
"Break!" The opponent shouted and punched out three times with all his strength. The Cross Sword Light was like a ceramic that had been hit. It was full of cracks and then shattered.
However, the sword light was dazzling. It was as if a Dragon Sparrow had opened its tail. It was extremely gorgeous and full of illusions.
Suddenly, a cold light shot out from the illusions.
It was like a star that tore through the night sky. It was bright and beautiful, but also contained a burning killing intent.
First, the Heaven and Earth Move was the vanguard. Then, the Dragon Sparrow Dance was used to confuse the opponent. Finally, the Secret Sword Point Star was used.
There was no time to defend or dodge. Just like before, the sword pierced through the opponent's throat. The horrifying Void Sword Force killed him instantly.
