Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 288 The Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Ray
The Zhang family's Heavenly Martial Divine Skill is extremely powerful and deadly. Although the Second Prince has been promoted to Grandmaster, his mental state has always been unstable, and he needs to "sharpen his sword" by taking lives.

It's useless for ordinary people to kill dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of people. Only by fighting against masters and facing life and death can one shed spiritual impurities.

Sun Yanwan is the perfect person to "sharpen the knife".

The Second Prince decided to stop wasting words with Sun Yanwan. He feared that if he spoke a few more words to the boy, he might really go insane.

Sun Yanwan suddenly launched a series of attacks, slightly forcing the Second Prince back. She then used her lightness skill to escape from the inn in an instant.

With a shout, the Second Prince unleashed the Heavenly Martial Dragon-Stepping Technique, closely following behind.

The Songyang School's Riding the Wind Technique and the Emperor Zhang Family's Dragon-Treading Technique are both the most advanced light-body skills in the world.

Sun Yanwan has truly put in countless hours of hard work on the Riding the Wind Technique. When this superior lightness skill is unleashed, it can even chase cheetahs on Earth.

The Second Prince's Dragon-Treading Technique was also the best lightness skill in the world, and his internal strength was also quite profound, but even with all his strength, he still couldn't catch up with Sun Yanwan.

The second prince couldn't help but scold, "You little brat, how could you escape like that?"

"If you're a real man, you'll settle things with me quickly, even if it means death."

Sun Yanwan exhaled and spoke, her voice slowly drifting out, "Once I advance to the Grandmaster level, I will definitely come to challenge you to a duel."

The second prince thought to himself, "Now that you've advanced to Grandmaster, how can I still be absolutely confident?"

Both were fast travelers, and in just over two hours, the walls of Luojing were already in sight. The Second Prince immediately understood Sun Yanwan's plan: he wanted to escape into Luojing to avoid his pursuit. He was secretly annoyed, thinking, "Before I made my move, I thought I had a 100% chance of winning, but I didn't expect his martial arts to be so close to that of a grandmaster. If I fought with all my might, even if his martial arts had reached this level, I could kill him in two or three hundred moves at most. But this guy is so slippery, what should I do?"

Before the Second Prince made his move, he had considered that Sun Yanwan might not care about saving face and would find an opportunity to escape, but he did not expect that the boy's lightness skill was so good that he could not catch up with him.

If Sun Yanwan were to escape to Luojing, he would be the second prince of the Dalang Dynasty, a future emperor candidate. How could he possibly chase after a Hanlin scholar from Dalang in the street?
In his desperation, the second prince reached into his pocket and pulled out a jade pendant. The pendant was flawless and clearly extremely valuable, but he didn't hesitate to crush it and throw it away.

More than ten pieces of jade, imbued with the Second Prince's full power, pierced the air with a whistling sound like a powerful crossbow bolt. Sun Yanwan was secretly alarmed, knowing it was not advisable to take the blow head-on. She circulated her internal energy, transforming the five elements, and was about to intercept when suddenly the Geng metal true energy of the Ruyi Golden Needle burst away, transforming into the extremely yin and cold Xuanbing Treasure Mirror. The Xuanbing true energy existed for only a moment before collapsing again, transforming into Taiyi Qingling true energy...

In an instant, the Five Elements and Five Transformations circulated once, finally transforming into a ball of five-colored true energy. Sun Yanwan waved her hand, and more than ten colorful threads flew out of her hand, striking the broken jade thrown by the Second Prince with perfect accuracy, shattering all of them.

Sun Yanwan was overjoyed, never expecting that she would be engaged in a life-or-death struggle with the Second Prince.

Well, it wasn't actually that dangerous. He didn't exchange more than a few blows with the Second Prince before he started running for his life.

He actually unleashed his martial arts potential, mastering the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Ray, which he had been cultivating for a long time but had never been able to achieve.

Having mastered this divine skill, Sun Yanwan was immediately filled with confidence. She stopped in her tracks and shouted, "Second son! Do you think I'm really afraid of you?"

Seeing this, the second prince's mind raced, and he suddenly smiled and asked, "Did I just say why I came to kill you personally?"

Sun Yanwan was taken aback by the question and replied, "I never said that." The Second Prince laughed and said, "Actually, I was just joking. I didn't come here to kill you."

He used his lightness skill to bypass Sun Yanwan, and after leaping, he stretched out his foot and stepped on the city wall twice more, thus reaching the top of Luojing's city wall, and then left gracefully.

Sun Yanwan couldn't help but exclaim, "You can do this?!"

The Second Prince's voice drifted from afar: "You are welcome to visit my residence when you have time."

The Second Prince was also helpless. Sun Yanwan had already fled to the outskirts of Luojing City and could enter the city at any time. She had also suddenly used the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Light of the Songyang Sect. Even though his martial arts were a level higher, he knew he could not kill Sun Yanwan within three to five hundred moves, so he could only reluctantly let her go.

The Second Prince used the Heavenly Martial Dragon-Stepping Technique to rush back to his residence. He thought to himself, "I must find an opportunity to kill Sun Yanwan again. This man has only been learning martial arts for seven or eight years, yet his martial arts have already reached such a level. He is even more talented than my fourth brother."

"If we let him cultivate for a few more years, what would happen?"

"Neither Grand Tutor Wenxi nor General Huo Feihu can help me kill Sun Yanwan, so I can only try to deal with the other two."

"He's come to Luojing; there will always be an opportunity to kill him."

In fact, the Second Prince did not know that if he really went to Wen Xi, the Grand Tutor might actually agree to help him assassinate Sun Yanwan. However, Wen Xi's upright and incorruptible character was well-known in the court and among the people, so the Second Prince immediately ruled out the old Grand Tutor.

Sun Yanwan watched the Second Prince enter Luojing City, but he did not follow him in. What kind of talk would it be for a top scholar and a proper Hanlin scholar to climb over the city wall in the middle of the night?

He hadn't hesitated to act expediently in a crisis, but now that the Second Prince had entered the city on his own, he had no reason to make himself look foolish.

Sun Yanwan also knew that even if the Second Prince really wanted to kill him, he had nowhere to complain. After all, the prince's father was the emperor, and even if his eldest brother really had the idea of ​​killing his brother, he wouldn't tell anyone. After all, once the reputation spread, he wouldn't be able to sit on the throne anymore.

He wanted to get revenge, so he decided to do it himself.

Sun Yanwan had fought the Second Prince before and knew that even if he mastered the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Ray, he would still be at a disadvantage. Although he was somewhat confident that the Second Prince would not be able to defeat him after two or three hundred moves, his self-assessment was actually lower than that of the Second Prince, leaning towards conservatism. However, Sun Yanwan knew that he did not have the ability to kill the Second Prince.

Unless he can break through his current realm, or encounters some other extraordinary event.

Sun Yanwan sat cross-legged outside Luojing City, waiting for dawn.

The five types of true energy within his body circulated and transformed, forming a completely new internal force that perfectly matched the sword intent he had condensed.

The Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Ray is actually a kind of sword energy, but this sword energy is very special. The sword energy is fine, like a thread. It is based on the Ruyi Golden Needle. The five elements change and condense into sword energy. It is like a thread, but its sharpness is unparalleled in the world.

Sun Yanwan's refined sword intent blended seamlessly with the Great Five Elements Extinction True Qi, becoming inseparable. The extinction sword qi, as fine as silk threads, became increasingly easy to control and wield.
