I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 633 Twenty Years Later, Still at the Peak!

After a while.

As they watched the figure disappear from the arena, the crowd gradually came to their senses.

The difference is too big!
Even those grandmasters who stood at the pinnacle of the extraordinary felt powerless in the face of Nangong Hong's spear.

It was an absolute crushing on a higher level, leaving no room for any thought of resistance.

"Is this the power of the Transformation Realm?"

Even a Sword Master at the peak of the eighth level of the Transcendent Realm couldn't withstand a single shot.

Other grandmasters probably don't even have the qualifications to make Nangong Hong draw his gun.

"That kid Nangong Hong, he's really good at pretending!"

On the icy plains of the North, Xia Yuan's lips twitched.

Nangong Hong's ability to win so easily was not only due to his powerful martial arts skills.

On the other hand, it's because his cultivation level is almost at the peak of the ninth stage of the Transcendent Realm.

He could clearly see that Nangong Hong's blood and qi were surging like a great river, flowing smoothly and without any stagnation.

This is clearly a sign that the twelve regular meridians and eight extraordinary meridians of the whole body have been almost completely connected and integrated!

With just one final step remaining, he will be able to completely integrate all the meridians in his body and reach the true perfection of the Transcendent Realm.

At this level, the speed, amount, and explosive power of their qi and blood mobilization are far beyond what ordinary ninth-level Grandmasters of the Transcendent Realm can compare to.

Although Sikong Yang's Burning Heaven Sword was powerful, it was far inferior to Nangong Hong's in terms of the explosive power of his blood and qi.

Only by using his near-perfect Transcendental cultivation to drive the terrifying control of his Transformation Force, and then unleashing such an extremely refined killing move as Piercing Rainbow, could Nangong Hang achieve such an overwhelming effect.

However, it must be said that Nangong Hong's cultivation, martial arts realm, and martial arts skills have all far surpassed those of others.

Such martial arts talent truly deserves the title of Martial Master.

"It seems there's no doubt that first place is already decided!"

Xia Yuan shook his head.

Qingyue's greatest advantage lies in her unique divine soul power, which allows her to exert near-bug-level suppression when facing opponents who have not condensed their divine souls.

This greatly weakens the opponent's strength.

Combined with dual artistic conceptions, it is indeed enough to dominate the eighth level of the Transcendent Realm.

Even most ninth-level Transcendent Realm cultivators would find it difficult to defeat her.

But Nangong Hong's foundation was simply too strong.

With near-perfect Qi and blood, coupled with the perfect control of power at the Transformation Realm level, his true combat strength is unfathomable.

Even if Qingyue's soul suppression could miraculously weaken his strength by 50%.

The remaining 50% still surpasses the level of an ordinary eighth-stage Transcendent Realm cultivator!

Qingyue would only be able to defeat Nangong Hong if she broke through to the ninth level of the Transcendent Realm.

Otherwise, there is almost no hope.

Moreover, this is on the premise that Nangong Hong did not hide his strength.

If he can also successfully integrate artistic conception into his spear technique, Qingyue might not be able to win even after breaking through to the ninth level of the Transcendent Realm.

Ultimately, the main reason is that Qingyue's actual combat ability is too poor.

If she had Ji Xuan's combat skills, she would have a chance to defeat Nangong Hong even at the eighth level of the Transcendent Realm.

This is the terror of the soul.

"However, there's little hope of defeating Nangong Hong, but it's not impossible for Ji Xuan."

"The difference between these two shouldn't be that big."

Xia Yuan's lips curled up slightly, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.

……

In the arena.

The aftershocks of the battle between Nangong Hong and Sikong Yang had not yet subsided, and everyone's attention was already focused on the next, even more suspenseful duel.

Qingyue versus Ji Xuan!

"Grandmaster Qingyue!"

Ji Xuan bowed slightly, even though the two were about the same age.

However, the other party embarked on the path of transcendence earlier than him, and had a special relationship with the Origin Ancestor.

Of course, more importantly, Qingyue was the first person to prove that the path of visualization is feasible.

In terms of achievements in the spiritual realm alone, he has already surpassed everyone else.

Therefore, she always had great respect for Qingyue.

Qingyue's eyes flickered slightly, and she nodded gently in return.

She has a cool and aloof personality and doesn't like to talk much.

Aside from Xia Yuan, they generally treat everyone else this way, and the higher-ups at Origin Academy were already aware of this.

However, Qingyue rarely refuses to go to her if anyone else has any questions.

However, apart from Ji Xuan and a few others, not many people dared to seek her advice!

【start! 】

The words had barely left his lips when the battle suddenly broke out in silence.

Qingyue was the first to activate the Soul Suppression!

A vast and powerful spiritual pressure, like an invisible mountain, crashed down on Ji Xuan's mind.

Ji Xuan let out a muffled groan, his body swaying slightly.

He felt a sudden heaviness in his head, and his thoughts became sluggish.

The wind and fire energy flowing around him instantly became chaotic and difficult to control.

"Is this the pressure emanating from the soul? It's definitely not something that can be compared to mental strength!"

Ji Xuan considered his mental strength to be quite strong, but when faced with a true divine soul, the difference was immediately apparent.

His strength was suppressed by about 30% to 40%!
Simply exaggerated.

But there was no time to think about it now.

Almost simultaneously, the power of their combined intents erupted!
"Whirlwind!"

"Wind Wall!"

The two of them actually chose to attack each other using the Wind element at the same time!
The third stage involves manipulating airflow with the intent of wind, instantly creating a howling wind within a radius of tens of meters!
Countless invisible cyclone blades collided violently with the solid airflow barrier, producing a piercing tearing sound!
Such a scene elicited gasps of surprise from countless viewers in the live stream.

[Holy crap, awesome! That's what a superhuman looks like!]

[Who says the Law of Laws is weak? This is just too cool!]

I've made up my mind; from now on, I will walk the path of the laws.

If the previous martial arts duels were the ultimate clash of strength and skill, then this scene before us is like that of a legendary spellcaster.

At this moment, everyone watching was captivated.

Without even getting close, a thought can draw upon the power of heaven and earth, transforming it into an invisible blade and a solid wall, combining offense and defense in a mysterious and unpredictable way!

This is far more in line with people's imagination of the word "extraordinary" than a fistfight!
However, these words only sound funny to true superhumans.

Reaching this level in the realm of laws is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

The third stage of the Wind Realm has only three people so far.

Their numbers are even fewer than those at the peak of Dark Force.

This is still due to the Wind Realm; other realms, even if they reach the third stage, do not possess such power.

For example, the artistic conception of water, even when it reaches the third stage.

It is also difficult to directly manipulate airflow to form such a concrete offensive and defensive method as the "Wind's Essence".

It leans more towards perception, penetration, nourishment, or extreme cold freezing.

The same applies to the concept of fire.

It can only add scorching and explosive properties; it's far from actually producing flames.

If these artistic concepts are not integrated into martial arts, they cannot actually exert much power.

A single artistic conception is very weak.

This is an undeniable fact.

Otherwise, why would so many people choose the path of martial arts instead of the path of laws?
Martial arts are a tangible and visible improvement!
It is about tempering the body, refining the spirit, and taking one step at a time.

As long as you are willing to work hard and have enough resources, you can always achieve great things!
The principles and concepts are ethereal and intangible; one either understands them or doesn't.

It's common to get stuck at a bottleneck for years or even decades without making any progress; the demands on one's temperament and understanding are so high that it can be despairing.

Even if one manages to grasp the essence of the art, its impact on actual combat is far less direct and powerful than that of mastering the martial arts realm.

Just as everyone watching on screen was filled with longing, the battle on the arena had already reached its climax.

Ji Xuan's understanding of the essence of wind was clearly more proficient; the vortex he controlled was more concentrated and its trajectory more unpredictable.

However, under Qingyue's suppression of his soul, Ji Xuan's blood circulation was always a beat slower!

This is a long time.

Qingyue's wind barrier actually blocked Ji Xuan's whirlwind.

Qingyue pressed her advantage and attacked.

The second phase of the water-themed atmosphere spread, making the air around Ji Xuan thick and cold.

Like being stuck in a swamp, actions and thoughts are further hampered!

Ji Xuan frowned, trying to suppress his discomfort.

He forcefully activated the essence of fire, unleashing a fiery and explosive force in an attempt to evaporate and dispel the watery binding power.

However, his fiery intent was ultimately only at the second stage, and its power was insufficient due to suppression.

Although it had some effect, it could not completely break through the combined suppression of Qingyue's dual artistic conceptions.

On the field, Qingyue could be said to have completely taken the initiative.

With her superior spiritual power, she controlled the battlefield with the wind element and weakened the enemy with the water element, firmly suppressing Ji Xuan.

Although Ji Xuan's wind and fire techniques were exquisite, he had the power but could not fully unleash it.

They could only passively defend, retreating step by step, and the situation was extremely precarious.

"This girl has made quite a bit of progress!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Xia Yuan's eyes, although his application of artistic conception could not compare with Ji Xuan's.

However, under the absolute suppression of power, Ji Xuan was still firmly suppressed.

"Isn't it true?"

Ji Xuan sighed.

If it weren't for the suppression of his soul, he could have defeated Qingyue long ago.

But now, simply using the Wind and Fire Intent is no longer enough to win!
"We still need to use martial arts."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Xuan abruptly abandoned his precise control over the power of intent and devoted most of his mental energy to resisting the suppression of his soul.

At the same time, the body's Qi and blood burst forth instantly.

"boom!"

The powerful blood and qi were like a furnace being ignited, and a scorching and fierce aura burst forth from the body, forcibly dispersing some of the moisture binding intent!

The arena floor beneath his feet cracked and groaned, as if it had been worn down by his weight!
The next moment, his figure shot out like an arrow, braving the wind and water barriers, and charged fiercely towards Qingyue!
Qingyue immediately mobilized the intent of wind to block, and countless cyclones cut towards Ji Xuan.

Ji Xuan neither dodged nor avoided, but let out a low roar.

With arms crossed to protect his vital points, terrifying blood and qi burst forth from his body in an instant!

"Bang bang bang!"

The vortex slashed at his arm, instantly leaving several bloody marks.

Ji Xuan couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.

However, his speed did not slow down at all.

With the blessing of the Wind's Essence, he pushed his movement technique to its limit, instantly closing the distance between the two!
"The wind fans the flames! The fire gains strength from the wind! Melt!"

His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he stopped releasing the remaining, uncontrolled power of wind and fire, instead brutally integrating it into his fist technique!
this moment.

His attacks not only carried the immense power of hidden force, but also added the speed of wind and the scorching intensity of fire!

The fists roared, carrying scorching air waves, attacking Qingyue like a storm.

Qingyue was forced to use the essence of wind to enhance herself, constantly dodging and blocking.

[Is this... the fusion of artistic conception with martial arts?]

off the field.

The grandmasters were immediately speechless.

Damn it, you're a grandmaster of the Laws, and you've not only comprehended dual realms, but you've also integrated them into martial arts?

Is this still a person?
Nangong Hong's lips curled up slightly; only someone like Ji Xuan was worthy of being his opponent.

Otherwise, based solely on the strength that Ji Xuan had previously demonstrated, it would have been far from enough to pose a threat to him.

"Very good, I knew I hadn't underestimated you!"

The stronger Ji Xuan was, the more comfortable it felt to defeat him.

If it's just about beating weaker opponents, then it's fine!

Meanwhile, on the arena...

The situation reversed instantly.

Close combat is the domain of martial artists!

Every collision with Ji Xuan caused Qingyue's blood and qi to surge, and her arms to go numb.

Although her artistic conception was wonderful, it was difficult for her to fully utilize it in the lightning-fast close combat.

Finally, Ji Xuan seized upon a tiny opening in Qingyue's dodge.

"break!"

With a loud shout.

A palm strike imbued with the residual essence of fire instantly broke through the wind barrier and landed on her shoulder blade.

"puff!"

The palm strike surged, unleashing hidden power, and the scorching energy of intent penetrated the body.

Qingyue's body trembled violently, and she was sent flying backward. After landing, she staggered back more than ten steps before regaining her balance.

Her face turned pale instantly, and she couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, her breath immediately weakening.

Ji Xuan also stopped, panting heavily.

His face was also pale.

The outburst just now had almost exhausted his strength and spirit, and his arm was covered in blood.

They have almost no fighting strength left.

However, Qingyue's condition was even worse. The prolonged use of her divine soul power had caused her to feel a stinging pain in her mind.

Not to mention that she is also injured now, even if she wasn't injured, she wouldn't be able to continue fighting.

Moreover, if Ji Xuan hadn't withdrawn most of his strength at the last moment, that palm strike would probably have resulted in more than just a minor injury.

Qingyue suppressed the churning blood and soul within her body and the stinging pain in her spirit, and whispered:
"I lost!"

Ji Xuan let out a long sigh of relief.

"Concession!"

"If it weren't for my martial arts prowess, I would have undoubtedly lost this battle."

He spoke from the bottom of his heart; the pressure that Qingyue's dual nature brought him was unprecedented.

He would have been defeated long ago if he had relied solely on the power of artistic conception!

Qingyue shook her head and didn't say anything more.

If you lose, you lose!
In terms of practical combat ability, she is indeed far behind these top geniuses.

However, Qingyue doesn't really care about winning or losing!

If it weren't for Xia Yuan, she would never have participated in the Extraordinary Person Competition.

For her, cultivating and exploring the mysteries of laws and the soul was far more appealing than competing for rankings.

Moreover, this competition made her realize her strengths and weaknesses.

The objective has been achieved.

[Ji Xuan wins!]

As Li Qingxuan's voice faded, the final result of this semi-final was announced.

After a brief silence, thunderous applause and cheers erupted from the stands.

Ji Xuan's displayed strength has exceeded everyone's expectations.

"Is this what the most outstanding geniuses are like?"

Countless masters, even grandmasters, felt immense pressure.

The fact that a transcendent being who had mastered the laws of the universe had surpassed countless martial arts transcendents truly left them feeling powerless.

"Twenty years have passed, are these two still standing at the very top?"

Situ Yanran murmured to herself, a complex look flashing in her eyes.
