Chapter 566: Chapter 566: Decisive Battle (Part 3)
"Boom!"
A large and a small sword Qi collided in the sky with a deafening roar.
It was assumed that Ling Chen’s sword Qi would instantly be overwhelmed by Xia Jiuyou’s sword Qi.
Yet, unexpectedly, Ling Chen’s sword Qi forcefully stopped the assault of Xia Jiuyou’s sword Qi.
The space first fell silent, then burst into a thunderous boom like a divine thunderclap from the ninth heaven.
Deafening!
Then, horrific waves of energy wreaked havoc in the sky, with an astonishing momentum.
"This..."
Looking at the scene in the sky, everyone’s eyes were almost popping out in shock.
It was thought that Ling Chen was certain to lose.
Who would have believed that Ling Chen’s attack would be equally strong, not falling behind at all!
"It is indeed a lower-grade King Spirit Technique!"
Xia Jiuyou’s face turned icy cold.
"Good!"
Ye Fentian’s eyes showed a glint of greed.
The King Spirit Technique demonstrated by Ling Chen, although only of a lower-grade,
was exceedingly strange!
He could actually hide his sword Qi within his body.
This must be part of the Emperor’s Inheritance.
With this thought in mind, Ye Fentian’s desire for the Emperor’s Inheritance grew hotter and his resolve to obtain it became firmer.
"Xia Jiuyou, whatever tricks you have left, use them all at once!"
Ling Chen declared arrogantly with a smile.
To avenge his father, he naturally intended to slay Xia Jiuyou at his strongest.
Moreover, he wanted the latter to die in utter despair!
What Xia Jiuyou had taken was his father’s Nether Sacred Body.
After speaking with his father, he naturally learned that the Nether Sacred Body would possess a secret technique!
It was only after deploying that kind of secret technique that Xia Jiuyou would be at his strongest.
Hearing this, Xia Jiuyou’s body trembled slightly.
Those were clearly his own lines, yet Ling Chen had snatched them away!
In his mind, he was supposed to be the one in control of this battle!
However, the reality was completely the opposite.
Until now, he had not even grasped the depths of Ling Chen’s abilities.
Instead, he was repeatedly forced by Ling Chen to reveal his techniques.
"Currently, you are not worthy for me to use my real techniques! Perhaps you should be wondering how to survive my next attack instead?"
Xia Jiuyou gritted his teeth.
For him, an established Palace Mansion Realm King, to be pushed to this extent by a newly-crowned King, it was nothing less than a humiliation!
"Nether Flame Domain, arise!"
Xia Jiuyou bellowed in his heart, and his Spiritual Power surged out like a tide, sweeping around him.
Where his Spiritual Power passed, clusters of black flames emerged.
In the blink of an eye, black flames covered a ten-mile radius, enveloping Ling Chen entirely.
Moreover, these black flames seemed to follow a bizarre rule, creating a strange gravitational pull, binding people within the flame region!
Even more bizarrely, the black flames seemed to come to life, absorbing the surrounding nature’s spiritual energy and continuously expanding.
As the flames grew, the gravitational pull within the flame-covered area grew increasingly terrifying!
"This guy’s Sacred Body is indeed extraordinary!"
Ye Fentian thought to himself.
The secret technique of the Nether Sacred Body could actually form a domain, which was extremely impressive!
You should know, a domain like this is typically something only Emperors possess.
Yet, Xia Jiuyou, with the strength of a three-star King, was able to deploy a domain thanks to his Holy Body Secret Technique.
His physique was indeed formidable.
"I wonder what Ling Chen’s Holy Body Secret Technique is? How will he counter Xia Jiuyou?"
Ye Fentian turned his gaze back to Ling Chen.
From the strength Ling Chen had shown, Ye Fentian knew this trip was well worth it.
The Emperor’s Inheritance of Ling Chen, he was determined to have it.
"Li Xuan, Elder Mu, get ready to intervene, Ling Chen must not die just yet!"
Ye Fentian transmitted his command.
"Yes, Young Sect Master!"
The two people behind immediately responded respectfully.
"This domain is really very powerful!"
Ling Chen sensed it for a moment and felt an immense number of forces blessing his body.
Although his father had previously mentioned the secret technique of the Sacred Body to him,
the realization still surprised him somewhat.
Xia Jiuyou stared at Ling Chen and said, "Ling Chen, I know your physical body is very strong. Perhaps, my domain can’t completely bind you, but for me, just being able to limit you is enough!"
His Spiritual Power is more abundant than Ling Chen’s.
Moreover, he has been a King for over twenty years.
Although his cultivation hadn’t increased much due to the constraints of the Sacred Body,
he hasn’t been idle these years.
The Nether Flame Diancang Slash isn’t the only King Spirit Technique he has cultivated.
With a single thought, Spiritual Power gathered again on his longsword, and soon another terrifying Sword Qi appeared.
This time, he did not slash immediately.
Instead, he allowed the Sword Qi to adhere to his longsword.
"Sky Goose Sky-Sweeping Technique!"
Xia Jiuyou shouted in his heart and directly used a low-grade Body Technique King Spirit Technique!
In the Netherfire Domain, his speed exploded to the extreme, instantly appearing dozens of feet behind Ling Chen, then swinging his longsword horizontally.
His speed was too fast.
Ling Chen had almost no time to react when the terrifying Sword Qi was already upon him.
"Shick!"
The Sword Qi slashed down, cutting Ling Chen’s body in half instantly.
However, there was not the anticipated spray of blood!
"Illusion?"
Xia Jiuyou’s face changed slightly, his gaze sharply turning towards the right.
There stood a figure in mid-air.
It was Ling Chen.
The Netherfire Domain was indeed very powerful.
But the force was limited.
After activating the third level of the Undying Star body, his physical body was comparable to that of the ninth level of the Primordial Pill Realm, so resisting these forces was not very difficult!
His Spiritual Power also did not greatly affect him.
"Body Technique King Spirit Technique, you can do it as well?"
Xia Jiuyou stared fixedly at Ling Chen, speaking with disbelief.
Ling Chen had only ascended to the Primordial Pill Realm a few months ago, and it had been the same amount of time since he obtained the King Spirit Technique.
Not only had he successfully cultivated the low-grade attack King Spirit Technique, but he had also refined the Body Technique King Spirit Technique, what kind of comprehension was this?
It should be known that the difficulty of cultivating the King Spirit Technique is entirely different from that of a regular Spirit Art, incomparable.
What’s more terrifying is that even with the limitations of the Netherfire Domain, Ling Chen’s speed was still not inferior to his!
He had even predicted his attack position; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to dodge it at the last critical moment!
"What’s so great about the Body Technique King Spirit Technique?"
Ling Chen scoffed.
He had been cultivating a low-grade Body Technique King Spirit Technique called ’Treading Snow Without Trace.’
With his comprehension, although it couldn’t be learned overnight, it wasn’t too difficult to learn after spending some time.
"This person’s comprehension is terrifying. If given time, he will definitely become an unparalleled emperor!"
Seeing this scene, Ye Fentian was also deeply shaken.
Just having ascended to the Palace Mansion Realm, he had successfully cultivated both attack and movement King Spirit Techniques.
Even though they were only low-grade, it still highlighted the height of this person’s comprehension.
Li Xuan’s face also showed astonishment.
Even within the Burning Flame Sect, there was probably no such terrifying prodigy!
Xia Jiuyou stared at Ling Chen, his eyes bursting with hateful light, "Good! I refuse to believe that I can’t kill you!"
"Netherfire Domain, gather!"
Xia Jiuyou snorted coldly.
The black flames within the Netherfire Domain then began to fly towards Xia Jiuyou.
Clusters of flames poured into Xia Jiuyou’s body, and his aura began to surge violently.
