Chapter 2725 - 2728: Bitter Disappointment: Liu Yan's Trump Card

In the arena, the figures of the two people flickered, like intertwining beams of light.

Strains of powerful energy surged from the weapons of the two, crashing together like a downpour of silk.

The terrifying ripples of energy radiated outwards, imposing immense pressure on the onlooking Martial Artists.

"This guy is so fast, like a ghost, not even a thread of his clothing can be touched."

The Cold Iron Fan in his hand swung continuously, each time shooting out dozens of powerful energies, each carrying sharp murderous intent, attacking Ling Xiao from different angles.

However, no matter how hard Liu Yan tried, Ling Xiao's ghostly figure always managed to dodge at the most critical moment, even launching counterattacks.

The Sword Qi, sharp as a poisonous snake, made him not dare to be careless in the slightest.

As the battle continued, the expression of underestimation on Liu Yan's face completely disappeared.

Even his relaxed mindset turned grave and serious.

The strength that Ling Xiao displayed was already enough to demand his full attention.

"I will not underestimate you, not even a bit!"

Liu Yan muttered to himself, and the speed of the Cold Iron Fan in his hand suddenly accelerated.

Not only that, but with each attack, the powerful energy was entwined with red light.

This red light, once released, made Ling Xiao feel his Qi-Blood surging, extremely uncomfortable.

"This must be his Magical Treasure."

Ling Xiao secretly speculated.

Indeed, it was troublesome; the closer he got, the more problematic it became.

It seemed this guy truly intended to use his full strength.

As he thought about it, a fierce strike from Liu Yan suddenly came.

Countless willow branches, wrapped in terrifying red light, stabbed towards Ling Xiao's head.

"Soul Thunder Light Shield!"

At the critical moment, Ling Xiao hurriedly retreated, simultaneously employing the Immortal Grade First Layer Heavenly Defense Martial Skill.

Even though this defensive martial skill was obtained in Eight Immortals County City, it was quite rare among the mid-level disciples of the Demon Dragon Sect.

After all, defensive martial skills are more scarce compared to offensive ones.

"Boom!"

The terrifying strike smashed against the Soul Thunder Light Shield.

Although most of the powerful energy was blocked, the blood-red light bypassed the Soul Thunder Light Shield, enveloping Ling Xiao entirely.

Within this blood-red light, Ling Xiao seemed utterly defenseless.

However, the discerning eye noticed a blood-red armor appeared on Ling Xiao's body, like a Demon Dragon.

It swiftly enveloped him completely.

Tyrant Blood Demon Dragon Martial Soul Transformation!

Upon transformation, the blood-red light was actually swallowed directly by the Tyrant Blood Demon Dragon.

This light entered Ling Xiao's body, wildly stirring his Qi-Blood, intending to make it burst to death.

Yet this terrifying foreign energy triggered a rebellion in Ling Xiao's cells.

Massive potential was unleashed from his cells, pressing towards the blood-red energy with the Imperial Heaven Earth Power.

An intense face-off unfolded within Ling Xiao's body.

In just a moment, Ling Xiao felt a barrier within his body open up.

His cultivation level restored another layer.

Reaching the First Transformation Yin-Yang Realm Tenth Layer Hell Middle Stage Cultivation.

Such a breakthrough was even easier than yesterday.

Yesterday, after all, required breaking through a major realm, while today it was just a minor realm breakthrough.

With an instant breakthrough in cultivation, Ling Xiao's combat power surged tenfold.

His inner strength surged like a ferocious flood.

His speed was also significantly boosted in an instant.

In that moment, Ling Xiao switched from defense to offense, tore away the Soul Thunder Light Shield, and suddenly thrust a sword.

The Shadow Sword Demon appeared, a sword piercing towards Liu Yan's throat.

Liu Yan, to his credit, reacted swiftly, urgently blocking with his Cold Iron Fan.

It was only because the Cold Iron Fan was of a higher grade than Ling Xiao's White Jade Flying Dragon Sword; otherwise, it would have been difficult to predict.

Despite not piercing the Cold Iron Fan, the terrifying impact sent Liu Yan flying several dozen steps back.

If the arena wasn't big enough, Liu Yan would have directly fallen off it.

Liu Yan stumbled awkwardly on the ground, rolled a few times, then stood up.

Looking at Ling Xiao, who wasn't pursuing, he was somewhat stunned and somewhat angry.

Because on Ling Xiao's face, there was a look of amusement, a mocking smile.

The storm-like exchange just now suddenly came to a halt.

Everyone saw this scene on the stage.

Liu Yan was sent rolling on the ground, almost falling off the arena, what was going on?

"You actually broke through again? Freak!"

Liu Yan could clearly feel Ling Xiao's combat power had surged tremendously, previously he was able to contend with him evenly, even slightly dominant.

But after Ling Xiao's breakthrough, he was completely suppressed.

Even the Magical Treasure gifted by the Third Sect Elder couldn't affect Ling Xiao much.

At this moment, his expression wasn't looking good.

"Liu Yan, no need to hold back, since Ling Xiao is that strong, don't worry about killing him, use that."

The Third Sect Elder suddenly shouted loudly.

"Understood, grandfather."

Liu Yan stood up awkwardly, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and coldly said, "Ling Xiao, you'll regret it, you should have taken me out while I underestimated you.

The thing I'm about to use next, you won't be able to withstand, you'll definitely lose terribly!"

"No need for nonsense, just make your move, if I'm afraid of you, I'm not Ling Xiao."

Ling Xiao looked at Liu Yan, coldly saying.

If not for wanting to see what other ultimate skills Liu Yan had that might help him further restore his cultivation level,

he would have already taken action to defeat this guy, no time for this nonsense.

"Don't be too pleased with yourself! Let me tell you the truth, what I'm best at isn't close combat.

It's a special Avatar battle technique!.

I once obtained a powerful martial skill in the Chen Dynasty Capital, named 'Heavenly Thunder Clone'."

As he spoke, Liu Yan's aura suddenly erupted.

Afterward, hundreds of Avatars appeared around him.

Most peculiarly, the Willow Tree Martial Spirit could instill special energy into each Avatar.

Making these Avatars even more formidable.

Each possessing half of Liu Yan's strength.

Yet witnessing this, Ling Xiao showed a peculiar expression.

"Are you sure this is your best trick?"

Ling Xiao asked, "Sure you're not playing with me?"

"Hm, you think Avatars are useless, but you're wrong, each of my hundred Avatars possesses half my power, and with the special property of my Willow Tree Martial Spirit, they can root into the Earth, continuously drawing the Earth's Power.

Thus allowing my Avatars to be reused multiple times!"

Liu Yan snorted coldly.

"So what?"

Ling Xiao retorted.

"So what? My remodeled Heavenly Thunder Clone has once injured an expert of the First Turn Eleventh Layer Hell!"

Liu Yan wanted to see fear, anxiety, and panic on Ling Xiao's face.

But to his despair, he found that Ling Xiao might not have a fear cell in his body.

By now, there was even some anger on his face.

"Are you messing with me? I had such high expectations of you, and this is what you bring out to fool me?"

Ling Xiao shouted in rage.
