Slaughter to Prove Your Dao: Unlock the Great Sage Equal to Heaven at the Start!

On the arena, the air seemed to freeze, a deadly intent lurking beneath the surface.

Xiao Qing made the first move.

He pressed his right thumb on the hilt of the knife and pushed it forward again—clang!

The jet-black longsword slid out another inch!

This time, it's not a test, but a truly devastating blow!

Drawing Sword Technique: First Cry!

Dark purple lightning blade energy, condensed like a bolt of lightning, erupted from the unsheathed three-inch blade!

A dark purple streak of light tore through the air, moving at an extreme speed.

In an instant, it swept towards Chen Xing!

The blade's aura had not yet arrived.

The sharp, all-severing blade intent and destructive thunderous aura caused a slight stinging sensation on Chen Xing's skin.

A golden light flashed in Chen Xing's pupils as he used the Heaven-Splitting Staff to block the attack.

clang--!!!

A piercing clang of metal clashing rang out!

The dark purple blade energy struck the pitch-black staff squarely, exploding into a burst of dazzling purplish-red flames!

A tremendous force, a mixture of the penetrating power of thunder and the sharpness of blade energy, surged forth.

The specially made alloy floor beneath Chen Xing's feet was shaken open, causing several fine cracks to appear!

He swayed slightly and took half a step back.

A distinct tingling and numb sensation came from the arm holding the stick.

Such strong penetrating power!

As expected of an S-rank Thunder Blade specializing in sword-drawing techniques!

Chen Xing's fighting spirit intensified.

Instead of retreating, he pushed off with his feet and advanced instead of retreating!

The purple-gold blood and qi surged within his body, and the flame patterns on the Sky-Splitting Staff suddenly shone brightly.

It carries the scorching power of the first move of the Lesser Complete Burning Heaven Nine Styles: Blazing Sky.

It crashed down on Xiao Qing's head!

The wind howled, and the scorching heat was overwhelming!

A flash of purple lightning appeared in Xiao Qing's eyes, seemingly surprised by Chen Xing's ferocity.

But his hands moved swiftly.

The jet-black longsword was finally drawn completely!

The blade is slender and dark purple.

Entangled with leaping, destructive lightning.

He held the knife in one hand and flipped his wrist.

A simple, direct, yet incredibly sharp upward slash met the descending Sky-Splitting Staff!

clang--!!!

A second explosion!

Thunder and flames collided, and a turbulent flow of crimson energy exploded between the two like fireworks!

The air currents surged, whipping their hair and clothes wildly backward!

This time, the two each took three steps back, resulting in a draw!

"Hiss—!" A collective gasp of astonishment rippled through the crowd below the arena.

Chen Xing retreated slightly after the first move, but he was able to withstand the second move without being at a disadvantage!

This power is definitely not limited to the lower level of the third realm!

A genuine look of surprise flashed in Xiao Qing's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by an even stronger fighting spirit.

He no longer held back; lightning suddenly blazed brightly in his deep purple pupils!

Sword Drawing Technique: Flash!

His figure suddenly blurred, as if merging into the dark purple arcs of electricity leaping in the air.

In the next instant, man and blade became one.

It transformed into an extremely fast purple bolt of lightning, tearing through the air and piercing straight into Chen Xing's chest!

The speed was almost twice as fast as the first cut!

The blade flashed, leaving faint scorch marks and a piercing whistling sound in the air!

Chen Xing activated his Fiery Eyes to their fullest extent, and golden light flowed deep within his pupils.

They locked onto the blurry trail of lightning.

Just as the blade was about to touch his chest, the somersault cloud beneath his feet exploded instantly.

The body twists to the side with an almost impossible, minute turn!

laugh--!

A dark purple blade aura grazed past the outside of Chen Xing's left arm!

The left sleeve of his spare combat uniform was silently and cleanly cut open by the sharp blade energy.

The skin beneath was exposed, glowing with a pale golden sheen, and a bloodstain with scorch marks remained on it.

"Wow, so fast!" "Senior Xiao Qing is getting serious!"

Gasps of surprise erupted from below the arena.

Lin Moyan's heart was in his throat.

Chen Xing glanced down at the wound on his left arm, his eyes remaining calm.

He ignored the wound, and his purple-gold blood surged forth from his body, centered on him.

The air within a radius of tens of meters instantly heated up!

Infernal Hell - Open!

An invisible domain of flames suddenly unfolded, enveloping the entire arena!

The ground alloy emitted a dark red glow, and the air was so hot it was suffocating.

Xiao Qing, who was at the center of the domain, frowned slightly for the first time.

He felt a slight obstruction in the flow of qi and blood within his body.

As if scorched by an invisible flame, its speed decreased almost imperceptibly.

More importantly, the flames seemed to carry a strange suppressive force.

This made even his thunderous temper seem somewhat restless.

Just as Xiao Qing was slightly affected by the Fiery Prison and his movements became slightly sluggish, Chen Xing made his move!

He neither dodged nor evaded; the Heaven-Splitting Staff, imbued with the scorching heat of the Blazing Hell, blazed forth.

It slammed down on Xiao Qing's head!

A fierce glint flashed in Xiao Qing's eyes, and he slashed at the Sky-Splitting Staff with his backhand.

At the same time, he slightly turned his body to the side, trying to avoid the most powerful point of the stick's strike.

Clang! Snap!

The knives and clubs clashed again!

This time, Chen Xing did not back down.

The terrifying defense granted by the Great Perfection Vajra Indestructible technique allowed him to withstand most of the damage from the sword energy.

I felt my chest heaving with blood and qi.

With a 35% chance of triggering a counter-shock, a considerable force rebounded from the Sky-Splitting Staff.

The shock caused Xiao Qing's hand holding the knife to go numb, and his sword strike became momentarily disordered.

It's now!

Chen Xing's left hand, fingers pointing like a sword, paused slightly.

Xiao Qing, whose swordplay was slightly disrupted, pointed a finger in the air and shouted in a low voice:

"Certainly!"

Immobilization spell activated!

Om-!

A binding force originating from the soul level instantly descended upon Xiao Qing!

His forward momentum suddenly froze, as if a pause button had been pressed.

Even the purple lightning that was dancing in his eyes seemed to freeze!

Although it only froze for 0.5 seconds.

But this happened unexpectedly.

The bizarre control, completely beyond the comprehension of martial arts, shone in his deep purple pupils.

For the first time, a flicker of disbelief and horror flashed through my mind!

What kind of ability is this?!

Psychological attack?

Space confinement?!

For Chen Xing, 0.5 seconds was a significant amount of time.

That's enough to accomplish too much.

However, he did not choose to take the opportunity to attack Xiao Qing's vitals.

The match is a friendly sparring session, not a life-or-death struggle.

The purple-gold light in his eyes suddenly intensified.

"Indestructible True Body—Activate!!!"

boom--!!!

A surge of purplish-gold blood energy, seemingly capable of shattering the heavens, erupted from the deepest part of his body!

The purplish-gold blood vessels beneath the skin bulged out like angry dragons.

The muscles bulged wildly.

The already fitted black combat suit stretched taut as if it were about to burst, outlining explosive lines of power!

His figure grew taller at a visible speed, right before everyone's eyes!

From 1.87 meters tall, he instantly grew to nearly 2.3 meters!

He had short, jet-black hair, with the roots appearing as if they were set ablaze with purplish-gold flames.

It spread rapidly upwards, transforming into an eerie purple-gold color!

The pupils completely transformed into two blazing orbs.

The blazing purple-gold sun seemed poised to incinerate the void!

A terrifying aura, faintly touching the threshold of the fourth realm.

Like a storm and tsunami, it swept across the entire arena with him at its center!

The strength of his aura instantly broke through the middle and upper levels from the original lower level of the third realm, and reached the peak of the third realm!

Strength, speed, reaction, defense... all attributes.

With the support of the SS-level talent active skill "Undying True Body".

Double it!

"Holy crap—!!!!!"

A moment of deathly silence fell over the arena.

"Chen Xing's aura has surged! Peak of the Third Realm?!"

"His hair! His eyes! The color has changed!"

"What kind of talent is this?! Can an S-rank talent achieve this?!"

"This is definitely not an ordinary lower-level cultivator in the third realm! He's been hiding his true strength?!"

"Could it be... that his talent has evolved?!"

Lin Moyan stared wide-eyed at the figure on the arena who resembled a purple-gold war god.

Unable to utter a single word, only one thought echoed wildly in my mind:

Brother Xing... just how many trump cards does he still have up his sleeve?!

This guy isn't even human!

Xiao Xiao excitedly covered her face in mid-air, her pixelated eyes shining brightly.

The recorder was running like crazy—

Xing Ge's SS-level talent.

Finally, for the first time in front of so many people, it revealed its terrifying side!

On the stage, Xiao Qing had just broken free from the 0.5-second immobilization.

They hadn't fully recovered from the shock of that strange control.

Then I saw this body suddenly grow much larger.

Chen Xing's hair and eye colors had changed, and his aura was so terrifying that even he felt a chill run down his spine.

A storm raged within him!

A rare innate talent?! A sudden surge in aura?!

This cannot be explained by ordinary S-level talent!

This Chen Xing... he really is a monster!

But the shock was only momentary.

A purer fighting spirit ignited in Xiao Qing's eyes!

The stronger the opponent, the more worthwhile the challenge!

Far from being afraid, he actually grinned with excitement!

"Well done!"

He let out a low growl, no longer holding back.

He gripped the hilt of the jet-black longsword tightly with both hands, his body surrounded by the leaping dark purple lightning.

As if summoned, they frantically converged towards the blade!

The dark purple crystals on the blade emitted a dazzling light, and the blade's aura surged at a visible speed.

In an instant, it extended to a length of about ten feet!

Terrifying destructive lightning gathered within it, emitting a heart-stopping crackling sound!

He was gathering his strength, preparing to unleash one of his most powerful killing moves—

Sword Drawing Technique: Thunderous Approach!

This strike will unleash a burst of fiery energy, possessing immense power!

However, Chen Xing would not give him the perfect opportunity to build up his strength.

In his Undying True Body state, the power of the Lesser Completion of the Nine Forms of Burning Heaven was brought to its fullest potential!

His feet exploded with somersault clouds, and his figure moved as if by teleportation.

Appearing in front of Xiao Qing, the Sky-Splitting Staff was raised high.

Purple-gold flames coiled around the staff as it slammed down!
