Chapter 1209 - 1206: Lu Xiao Yun vs. Luo Feng!

"Kill!"

As Lin Hongyi shouted, a sense of absolute killing intent permeated out, as if heaven and earth were resonating with her. The entire Flowing Cloud Region suddenly changed, the sunlight dimmed, the wind ceased, and the once brilliant clear sky suddenly turned into a somber scene. The only sound left in everyone’s hearts was a singular voice.

Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill...

The sound of slaughter entered into ears, echoing continuously in hearts, as if it intended to annihilate the heavens.

In a trance, everyone seemed to have arrived in a bloodthirsty primitive era, where ancient fierce beasts roamed the earth, blood stained countless mountains, and slaughter was boundless.

"This is..."

Luo Feng looked at Lin Hongyi with surprise. For a moment, he felt the Deathless King’s saber in his storage ring trembling in resonance. Lin Hongyi’s aura was indistinguishable from the residual great momentum on the saber.

"Summoning the winds and clouds, suppressing all evils, this is the great accomplishment realm of grand momentum! However, it’s still lacking a bit of skill."

The Hall Master of Yuangang Hall, Tu Wanshan, took a deep breath, looking at Lin Hongyi in astonishment.

He had long seen that Lin Hongyi was hiding her strength, but he never expected that she was hiding so deeply. Not only had she comprehended grand momentum, but she had also cultivated it to the great accomplishment realm.

The spectators in the stands were likewise shocked and envious.

Although it’s not only those who comprehend grand momentum or sword intent that achieve greatness, those who can comprehend such intangible forces naturally represent something extraordinary and are more likely to become formidable figures. History has already proven this.

Earlier, He Qin’s fifty percent sword intent and Luo Feng’s fifty percent grand momentum had already astonished and envied many; subsequently, Jian Wuji’s seventy percent sword intent was unrivaled, intimidating all around; such achievements in past New Dragon List Conferences have already been unprecedented spectacles.

But now, a genius who comprehends the great accomplishment of grand momentum appears. How shocking is that!

Even the two disciples from the Sword Tomb showed a hint of surprise in their eyes. Though all Sword Tomb disciples grasped sword intent, it was uncommon for them to cultivate it to the great accomplishment sword intent at such a young age.

On the dragon pillar, Jian Wuji looked at Lin Hongyi, with a spark of brilliance in his eyes, and his face changed for the first time.

As everyone was shocked, drastic changes occurred on the Ascending Dragon Platform.

Unleashing the great accomplishment of grand momentum, Lin Hongyi’s eyes were devoid of any emotion, her aura reached an unprecedented peak, as if she had transformed into a female war god, her slender, clean hand slapped through the air.

Boom!

The Five Mountains Whirlwind swept outwards, crushing the slashing sword qi into pieces, and the mountain range also dissipated into nothingness.

"Golden Jade Meteor Punch!"

Crushing the sword qi, Lin Hongyi clenched her right hand, the surrounding air violently trembled, as if she had seized that entire space. With a punch carrying an intent of annihilating all, a dazzling golden jade light trail was pulled in the void, instantly pressing towards Lu Xiao Yun, causing his entire outfit to flutter wildly in the wind.

Facing this punch containing the great accomplishment momentum, Lu Xiao Yun only felt his life’s energy being siphoned away. Even he could not stabilize his mind, without thinking, he immediately unleashed his strongest strike.

"Sky Thunder!"

With a flash of thunder in his eyes, Lu Xiao Yun opened his mouth, spitting out a dazzling, piercing white light. The white light transformed into a sharp sword qi, carrying the intent of thunder, meeting Lin Hongyi head-on.

Boom!

A huge explosion resounded, the mountain trembled. On the Ascending Dragon Platform, two colors appeared, one side was endless white light, the other side was a faint golden jade hue, distinctly separated.

Rumble!

Suddenly, the light shattered, and the blue light curtain around the platform billowed violently like flowing water. Lin Hongyi’s momentum was completely broken, she spat out a mouthful of bright red blood, and her figure reeled backward, each step down causing a slight quake in the ground.

"Sky Thunder, what a marvelous move, the thunder intent contained in it just made my scalp tingle. This move for a sneak attack is simply indefensible."

"Indeed. We’ve never seen Lu Xiao Yun use this ’Sky Thunder’ before, it must be a secret trick hidden specifically for the New Dragon List Conference, Lin Hongyi could force him to reveal this move and wasn’t heavily injured, though defeated it’s still glorious."

"That’s right, she is still at the ninth peak realm of the Spiritual Rotation, even if she has cultivated grand momentum to the great accomplishment realm, to challenge a True Yuan realm expert like Lu Xiao Yun, is still a bit too much."

"That might not be so sure, have you forgotten Luo Feng?"

"This..."

"I wonder what the result would be if Luo Feng encountered Lu Xiao Yun. Would he create another miracle like he did when he defeated Leng Feifan?"

With Lin Hongyi’s momentum broken, the stands immediately burst into discussion.

"I concede."

Wiping away the blood at the corner of her mouth, Lin Hongyi glanced at Lu Xiao Yun, decisively conceding. The previous sword had seriously injured her, and she never expected to win in the first place.

Watching Lin Hongyi leave the Ascending Dragon Platform, Lu Xiao Yun’s face turned somewhat grim.

Sky Thunder was a killer move from his secret techniques, refining True Yuan into a thunder sword in his Dantian, possessing extraordinary power, recklessness, even a True Yuan realm first-tier martial artist would be killed instantly.

This was supposed to be his biggest hidden card, but earlier, affected by Lin Hongyi’s absolute killing momentum, he couldn’t hold back and exposed it.

Thinking it over, Lu Xiao Yun quickly felt relieved.

Why worry about exposure? Anyway, there’s no hope now for competing for the first New Dragon position. As for Luo Feng, whether he knows or not, he can’t withstand this ’Sky Thunder.’ In fact, the opponent is not qualified to make him use this move at all.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiao Yun sneered coldly in his heart, but didn’t leave the Ascending Dragon Platform. He folded his hands behind his back, looked towards Luo Feng, and spoke:

"Luo Feng, come down for a battle."

Wow!

The moment Lu Xiao Yun spoke, the whole Flowing Cloud Region atmosphere boiled over.

With the conclusion of the battle between Lu Xiao Yun and Lin Hongyi, the battle everyone anticipated the most was the one between him and Luo Feng.

As the two legendary geniuses of the Flowing Cloud Region, Luo Feng had risen unexpectedly, having not tasted defeat in the ranking battles thus far, and even defeated True Yuan realm martial artist Leng Feifan in a leap!

Meanwhile, Lu Xiao Yun crushed Lin Hongyi, who had the great accomplishment of grand momentum, with overwhelming power. That final strike ’Sky Thunder’ left a deep impression on everyone, seemingly unstoppable.

The battle between the two of them would certainly be spectacular!

A responsible elder for the match scanned the other participants in the ranking contest and asked:

"Is there anyone else who wants to challenge?"

Only when no one challenges can a contestant initiate consecutive challenges.

Everyone looked at each other, and no one responded.

The contestants on the Hundred Dragon Pillars were also very much looking forward to the battle between Luo Feng and Lu Xiao Yun.

The elders felt the same way, and the responsible elder, seeing no challenges, nodded and told Lu Xiao Yun:

"Lu Xiao Yun, you have the time of half an incense stick to recover, then the match will begin."

Lu Xiao Yun believed his current condition was enough to defeat Luo Feng, and there was no need to recover. However, rules are rules. Even if he wanted to give an advantage to Luo Feng, he couldn’t. He nodded, took a pill, and began regulating his breathing.

Half the time of an incense stick passed in a blur.

Swipe!

Lu Xiao Yun opened his eyes, looking at Luo Feng, his gaze brimming with brilliance.
