Chapter 250 - 146: Wrath of the Flame God, End of the Grand Competition

A fire dragon of celestial proportions and a heaven-blanketing torrent of lightning intertwined madly in mid-air,

For a moment, the entire world shook violently, like a boundless, raging tsunami.

But before the aftershocks could even subside,

Gu Yun was already striding across the sky, sending out concentric ripples. His figure was impossibly swift, like a bolt of lightning. With his long saber in hand and a sharp glint in his eyes, he slashed toward Shen Kai, carrying an overwhelming Momentum.

Simultaneously,

Shen Kai brandished his long spear. He stomped upon the void, his figure streaking across the sky like a fiery star as he hurtled violently toward Gu Yun.

CLANG!

In a near instant, the two figures, like streaks of light, collided violently in the void.

The spear and the saber rang out in the void, their metallic clash echoing across the sky.

CLANG CLANG CLANG!!

Then,

the two figures transformed into streaks of light, continuously flickering and colliding in the void above.

The clash of saber and spear was as ceaseless as a surging river.

The terrifying aftershocks completely scattered the white clouds against the blue expanse of the heavens.

Lingering flames and stray bolts of lightning intertwined madly in the void, as if they would not rest until space itself was annihilated.

Gu Yun’s saber strikes were like startling thunder. Every single move was as swift as lightning, sweeping across the world and tearing through the sky. His Sword Qi moved like a dragon, accompanied by an immense and powerful aura!

Shen Kai brandished his long spear, each strike like a lashing dragon. His thrusts swept across the world, incomparably fierce and domineering, and the flames that followed him threatened to burn through heaven and earth.

The two fought with unparalleled ferocity,

leaving the audience outside the arena speechless with amazement.

"Now *this* is what a Cultivator should look like!"

"Yeah. Either one of them could take us out in a single blow."

...

CLANG CLANG CLANG!

The two figures flickered ceaselessly in the sky above,

clashing again with several tyrannical techniques.

The exchange instantly caused space itself to roil and tremble.

As time slowly passed, the battle reached a fever pitch.

By now, Gu Yun was covered in wounds. His long robes were scorched by flames, his body riddled with fierce spear marks. Blood trickled ceaselessly from his injuries, staining his white robes crimson. His condition had clearly deteriorated significantly.

Shen Kai, on the other hand, was also covered in saber wounds. His robes had been shredded by lightning, revealing a lean, muscular frame. Some of the gashes were deep enough to expose bone, and Sword Intent still writhed within them, preventing them from closing. Blood gushed freely, and though he looked utterly disheveled, Shen Kai’s eyes blazed with a heaven-shaking will to fight!

"To fight me to this extent... you’re really something else! I acknowledge you!"

Shen Kai laughed heartily as he stood tall in the sky above the arena.

But then, his tone shifted.

"But this is where it ends!!"

Shen Kai stood tall in mid-air, spear in hand. His tattered robes billowed without a wind, his long black hair whipping about wildly. He looked like an indomitable War God. A terrifying, fiery glint flashed in his eyes.

A terrifying wisp of the Heaven and Earth Dao Rhythm emerged from his body.

The moment the terrifying Heaven and Earth Dao Rhythm appeared, space abruptly collapsed and shattered. An endless gale surged forth from the abyssal void!

"Divine Skill: Flame God’s Fury!"

A pillar of fire erupted from Shen Kai’s body, soaring into the clouds, ascending to the highest heavens, and illuminating the entire world!

Shen Kai’s tattered clothes whipped about him, his black hair flew wildly, and he formed a hand seal with a single hand, as if drawing upon the very qi of the world. His gaze was as scorching as the sun, and his terrifying aura shook the heavens.

BOOM!!

High in the fiery sky, a hole a hundred li wide suddenly tore open—a dark, endless vortex Devouring Heaven and Earth.

Immediately after,

the massive dark vortex in the sky filled with fiery light and arcs of lightning.

Then, an enormous spearhead slowly pierced through space.

It was as if it had traveled from beyond the cosmos to descend upon this world!!

When the spearhead was fully revealed from within the vortex,

it was a hundred-li-wide Fiery Flaming Spear Shadow, covered in Profound Mysterious Inscriptions and imbued with a wisp of the Heaven and Earth Dao Rhythm.

The moment the incomparably massive Fiery Flaming Spear Shadow appeared, it filled the hundred-li expanse of the sky.

Its tip pointed downward, exuding an unparalleled sense of oppression.

Its terrifying might shook heaven and earth. It seemed as if this hundred-li-wide spear shadow, by its very presence, was enough to suppress everything in existence!!!
