Practitioner Heavenly Sword, who had been concentrating on refining the sword for a few hours, suddenly had a slight fluctuation in his aura. His facial expression also changed a little. This made Luo Ping, who had been guarding beside him, a little worried.
Just when he was a little hesitant, the essential energy surrounding the Heavenly Fault Sword slowly dispersed and returned to Practitioner Heavenly Sword's body. Although it was slightly depleted, it did not affect his strength.
When the Heavenly Fault Sword's appearance was completely revealed, it actually let out a long cry. Moreover, the body of the sword looked even more perfect and smooth. Following the long cry, the Heavenly Fault Sword automatically circled above Practitioner Heavenly Sword's head a few times before falling back into his hand.
After finishing his cultivation, Practitioner Heavenly Sword picked up the Heavenly Fault Sword and sensed it. A joyful smile appeared on his face. He quickly shared it with Luo Ping who was beside him.
"Little friend Luo, I didn't expect the connection between me and the Heavenly Fault Sword to become even closer after refining it. It seems like I can really feel its fluctuation. In my mind, there seems to be a miniature of this sword that is inseparable."
"I estimate that after refining it, the power of the Heavenly Fault Sword Technique will be increased by at least three to four levels. This is something I would never dare to imagine in the past!"
"This opportunity is all thanks to little friend Luo's help. I will never forget this great kindness. If little friend Luo needs any help in the future, feel free to tell me. This old man will do his best to fulfill it."
Practitioner Heavenly Sword was very happy that his strength had improved. However, he did not forget about Luo Ping's help. He quickly expressed his inner thoughts.
"Senior Heavenly Sword, you don't have to regard me as an outsider. We are martial artists of the same country. It is only right for us to help each other. There is no need to talk about repayment … I will be satisfied as long as Senior can have a real competition with this junior in the next round."
"Alright, no problem. Let's go all out. Haha …"
… … …
As both of them expected, in the afternoon competition, Luo Ping and Practitioner Heavenly Sword actually fought against each other. On the other hand, Taoist Priest Cang Shan fought against Broken Sword Butcher.
Since they were all from the same country, the match between Luo Ping and Wang Yao once again attracted the attention of the crowd. They wanted to see if the two would go all out in the fight, and if one of them would go easy on the other.
At this moment, the most conflicted ones were Zong Lie and Zong Yuanhao. This was the situation they were most unwilling to see. No matter who won or lost, it would be a pity.
However, the competition was so cruel. There were no family or friends on the battlefield. There was only the dedication to martial arts and respect for the opponent. One had to bring out all of their strength for this to be a real competition.
This round of the competition was more crucial than the previous round because Luo Ping and Taoist Priest Cang Shan won all six rounds. On the other hand, Practitioner Heavenly Sword and Broken Sword Butcher won five rounds and lost one. If the former two lost this round, the four of them would be tied again with six wins and one loss. They would have to wait until the eighth round of the competition to determine the ranking.
If Luo Ping and Taoist Priest Cang Shan won this round, things would be much simpler. They would have the opportunity to compete for the first place. Of course, there were other possibilities. No one could predict what would happen until the end.
"Senior Heavenly Sword, I didn't expect the competition to start so soon. I hope you will keep your promise and fight for the martial arts spirit. I will not treat you as my senior anymore. You are just my opponent now."
"Haha, well said. Let's go all out in the competition. This is also the mutual respect between us. No matter what the result is, we are still friends!"
"In that case, let's start. The other groups have already started fighting."
"Okay, come on …"
When Luo Ping and Practitioner Heavenly Sword were talking, the other groups had already started their matches. They were the last group to start. Therefore, in order not to affect everyone's mood, they didn't continue to be long-winded.
"Flying Flower Chaos Sword Technique!"
Holding the Cold Ice Sword, Luo Ping waved his sword countless times. Every time he waved his sword, there would be many sword flowers. The sword flowers danced in the air and were bright and dazzling. Under the illumination of the sun, they reflected extraordinary splendor.
When Luo Ping used this set of sword techniques from the 'Chen Yang Scripture', he couldn't transform the sword flowers because of the limitation of his skill. But now, not only could he release the sword flowers, but the sword flowers also seemed to be in a mess. In fact, they had already formed a set of simple formation.
Yes, it was a formation. Although it was the simplest formation, it was something Luo Ping had studied and perfected after countless attempts. This was the first time he used it in a real battle.
The Flying Flower Chaos Sword Technique had always been a sword technique that had an order amidst chaos. It was a sword technique that was neither real nor fake. Since Luo Ping had fused it with a formation, the might it unleashed was something that even Patron Heavenly Sword had to take seriously.
"It seems to be in a mess, but in fact, the strength is concentrated and as fast as lightning. Moreover, it seems to have integrated into the formation. Excellent, excellent."
As a Swordsman Grandmaster, Practitioner Heavenly Sword's eyes were very sharp. He could see the characteristics of Luo Ping's sword technique at a glance.
Although he was praising Luo Ping, his movements weren't affected at all. His Heavenly Fault Sword just waved a few times and intertwined sword qis appeared in the space in front of him.
The sword qis intertwined like crisscrossing blood vessels. They were flashing and emitting light. Under Practitioner Heavenly Sword's constant carving, they gradually formed a strange pattern.
Just like the star distribution map in the sky, where the sword qis met, there were circular light spots. These light spots were thicker than the sword qis. There were a total of 36 light spots. Although it wasn't a lot, Luo Ping could clearly feel the pressure emitted by the star pattern.
"Ninth Art of Heavenly Fault Sword Technique – Infinite Star Universe!"
Practitioner Heavenly Sword shouted and pushed out the star pattern in front of him. In the process of moving forward, the star pattern gradually became bigger. In a moment, it completely enveloped Luo Ping's attack.
When the sword flowers were intercepted by the star pattern, they rotated even faster, trying to break through the latter's obstruction. However, every impact was repelled by the light of the star pattern.
After several futile attempts, Luo Ping increased the concentration of his inner force. The sword flowers no longer collided with the star pattern. Instead, they exploded automatically when they came into contact with the star pattern. They were as colorful and eye-catching as fireworks in the night sky.
The exploded sword flowers turned into countless tiny flowing needles, densely piercing the star pattern. This time, they only paused for a moment before they pierced through the star pattern's defense and drilled through.
It was like embroidery. Although the flowing needles were very slow, they did pierce through the star pattern's defense. When Practitioner Heavenly Sword saw that more than half of the flowing needles had penetrated the star pattern and there were so many of them, he was surprised. He immediately raised his Heavenly Fault Sword and brandished it again …
… … …
A whistling sound was constantly heard. A huge horsetail whisk was waved back and forth in Taoist Cang Shan's hand. It seemed casual and weak, but when facing his opponent's attack, he could always easily neutralize it.
From the beginning until now, the Broken Sword Butcher could not do anything to his opponent at all. No matter what moves he used, Taoist Cang Shan easily dealt with them with his horsetail whisk. This made the Broken Sword Butcher feel like he was being looked down upon.
Although the Broken Sword Butcher knew that the Cang Mountain Taoist Priest was like this every time he faced an opponent, he still felt very uncomfortable. He kept increasing the strength and power of his attacks, hoping to force the Cang Mountain Taoist Priest to use more tricks.
The huge sword was unsheathed, and the Sword Qi of the broken sword swept back and forth. The sound of breaking air was as fast as lightning. It completely enveloped the opponent's whole body, leaving no gaps.
However, Taoist Master Cang Shan's expression remained the same. He gently spun the horsetail whisk in his hand, and ripples slowly spread out in the air. A force stronger than his opponent's Sword Qi appeared in the air, completely destroying the Sword Qi that was attacking him.
"Hiss!"
The Broken Sword Butcher sucked in a breath of cold air. He knew the power of his move very well. If a Martial King expert encountered this move, he would be cut into countless pieces in an instant. However, it was easily neutralized.
He was now a Xiantian expert. Not only did he successfully liquefy the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, but it had also been many years since he broke through. The volume of the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in its liquid state was now twice as much as when it was first liquefied.
He believed that although his current strength was not the best among those in the same realm, it was at least in the upper tier. It could be said that he was already standing at the top of the Mortal Realm.
He didn't expect that he would encounter an opponent in the same realm who could easily neutralize his all-out attack. It was truly inconceivable.
Could it be that the opponent had already broken through to the Xiantian Peak realm? But in the entire Hong Tian Continent, there had never been anyone who could break through to the Xiantian Peak realm. For thousands of years, countless geniuses had failed to do so. Could it be that Taoist Cang Shan could do it?
"Impossible, it's absolutely impossible …"
The Broken Sword Butcher kept denying it in his heart. After throwing away all distracting thoughts, he raised his strength again and prepared to continue attacking.
As for the other two groups, Barbarian Wolf and Black Widow's side, the former used thunderous methods and attacked without stopping, leaving the latter with no chance to catch her breath.
Even if she had a lot of skills, she couldn't use them. Who asked her to meet an opponent who was also good at close combat? Moreover, the degree of madness was even more than Luo Ping's.
Qiao Wan against Venerable Yufeng. Although the former's strength should be the weakest among the nine, Venerable Yufeng was good at movement and speed. In terms of strength, he didn't surpass his opponent by much. Therefore, he was still anxious for the time being.
… … …
"Sword Slashing Heavenly Fault, Nine Arbiters Unite!"
At this moment, Practitioner Heavenly Sword once again used the Nine Arbiters Unite of the Heavenly Fault Sword Art. After the nine figures locked onto Luo Ping, each of them used a sword art to attack him.
Of course, Luo Ping knew the power of the Nine Arbiters Unite of the Nine Arbiters Unite. Moreover, there was an even more powerful chain technique after this technique. He had seen the power of a hundred swords with his own eyes. Therefore, he must not give his opponent the chance to use it.
"After fighting for so long, it's time to end the match …"
Luo Ping thought casually in his heart. After putting up a protective qi wall, the Frigid Ice Sword in his hand flashed and disappeared in an instant. It was replaced by the Astral Comet Axe.
"Don't tell me he's going to use that technique again?"
Practitioner Heavenly Sword's eyes suddenly widened. When Luo Ping used the axe as a substitute for a sword to use the Sun Splitter, although he was fighting, he could still feel the power of this attack. Therefore, when he saw his opponent taking out the Astral Comet Axe, he couldn't help but think.
