Qin Feng did not hesitate either. Seeing the Sect Master of Qing Xuan Sect walking towards him step by step, he directly swung the Peerless Good Sword in his hand and unleashed his Sword Control Technique, charging forward.
A golden sword light descended from the sky, merging with his treasured sword. The power of this strike was earth-shattering.
Judging by the chaotic state of the surrounding spiritual energy and the celestial phenomena, no one present could withstand this sword strike. The immense might even made the sect masters watching from the sidelines feel a lingering fear. They all circulated the power within their bodies to resist this terrifying aura.
Even though they were very far from the center of the battlefield, the ripple effects were still significant. If they did not circulate their full strength, they might be terrified to their core by this might, possibly dying on the spot.
With such formidable power emanating from the residual force alone, everyone present knew that this great battle was beyond their ability to witness. However, they were now unable to leave, as all their strength was being used to resist this aura, making rapid escape impossible. They could only hope to seize an opportunity to flee during a lull in the battle.
This unstoppable sword strike was aimed directly at the chest of the Sect Master of Qing Xuan Sect. Combined with the golden sword light descending from the sky, the two immensely powerful forces merged into one, causing the Sect Master of Qing Xuan Sect to dare not be careless.
He extended one hand to block the sword light from the sky and the other to parry Qin Feng's Peerless Good Sword, simultaneously circulating his internal power to instantly neutralize these two formidable forces.
With his current Mahayana stage cultivation, it was still possible for him to neutralize Qin Feng's Sword Control Technique. After all, his strength was a realm higher than Qin Feng's. The difference between the Void Refining stage and the Mahayana stage was akin to the difference between an ordinary person and an immortal, a chasm between heaven and earth. Even though Qin Feng's Sword Control Technique was extremely profound, it was unable to harm him in the slightest under his full resistance.
The incredibly powerful sword strike was instantly nullified under the full resistance of the Sect Master of Qing Xuan Sect. Qin Feng stood his ground, calmly observing the Sect Master of Qing Xuan Sect. From that previous move, he already understood the gap between himself and a Mahayana stage cultivator. Even with his superior Sword Control Technique, he could not kill the opponent.
Although he had known this for a long time, he had personally tested it to verify his judgment and to confirm that the person who imparted knowledge to him had not provided false information.
His current realm was indeed no match for a Mahayana stage cultivator, but this was only his personal strength. If his Red Alert Legion were included, he was sure to win.
The Immortal Venerable, standing far away, gasped as he witnessed the scene unfolding in the arena.
He did not know what Qin Feng had experienced, but from that move, he could tell that the young man named Qin Feng had not only rapidly advanced his cultivation to the same realm as his own but also possessed a profound technique. The golden sword light that descended from the sky was clearly a high-level technique.
The Immortal Venerable believed he could not have withstood that sword strike. The opponent's powerful technique, combined with his late Void Refining stage cultivation, was enough to contend with the Sect Master of Qing Xuan Sect, who was at the Mahayana stage.
Besides being astonished, he was even more shocked by how powerful the Mahayana stage cultivation truly was.
Originally, he and the Sect Master of Qing Xuan Sect were at odds with each other.
This time, the Sect Master of Qing Xuan Sect, upon reaching the Mahayana stage, encountered the appearance of a fierce ghost and actually asked for his assistance. From this, it could be seen that he had not initially taken the Sect Master of Qing Xuan Sect seriously. After all, the opponent had just ascended to the Mahayana stage, and he believed he could still contend with him. However, it now seemed he had clearly underestimated the opponent.
With his current strength, he might not even be able to withstand three moves from the opponent. They were not on the same level at all. If they were to clash rashly, he would undoubtedly be defeated miserably. But why did the opponent still require his help? Although the fierce ghost's strength was formidable and its moves were extremely peculiar, the Sect Master of Qing Xuan Sect could easily deal with it. What was the purpose of having him gather the sect masters of various factions to hunt down the fierce ghost? Wasn't this an unnecessary step?
The Immortal Venerable was utterly perplexed. From the brief exchange between the two just now, he had discovered something unusual, which further fueled his suspicions.
At this moment, the Sect Master of Qing Xuan Sect let out a long sigh. He glanced at Qin Feng and said with admiration, "Your move just now was incredibly powerful. I never expected that your late Void Refining stage cultivation, combined with such a potent technique, would instill a sense of crisis in me. It seems your technique is exceptionally strong and is one of your trump cards. Without the aid of this technique, I doubt you would dare to appear here. Unfortunately, the gap in our realms cannot be bridged by mere skill. Even though your technique is formidable, your inherent strength is insufficient to unleash its full power, and thus you cannot defeat me. Now, I shall take your life and make you disappear from this world completely."
Having said this, the Sect Master of Qing Xuan Sect circulated the power within his body.
As he circulated his internal power, the surrounding space underwent a drastic transformation.
The sky suddenly darkened, the spiritual energy in the surrounding space surged, and a fierce wind swept through, completely enveloping the area. Then, a powerful pressure descended from the heavens, making it difficult for everyone present to breathe. A faint, almost imperceptible light shone from all directions, illuminating the entire space.
However, only the space they occupied became bright, while the area beyond was plunged into darkness, as if only this region remained in existence. They seemed to have become the sole occupants of this world.
But the people within this space found it extremely uncomfortable. The sect masters who had intended to escape now found themselves utterly unable to move their feet. This space had been sealed off, and they could not get out. The immense pressure and the sudden surge of spiritual energy had formed a special barrier. Even with all their strength exhausted, they could not break through this barrier, let alone when they were unable to concentrate their full power due to the need to resist the overwhelming pressure from above.
Escaping from this space was nothing short of a delusion.
The Immortal Venerable was also finding it difficult. His strength was greater than that of the sect masters, but in the face of a Mahayana stage cultivator, he was still far weaker. Feeling the immense pressure of the surrounding space, he could only circulate his full strength to resist. Escaping from here was also very difficult for him.
The pressure in this space was too great, and he also sensed a force gathering in the sky. If he acted rashly, he might attract the attention of that force and end up dying here!
