Chapter 528 One Move To Scare.



Bo Qingtan clasped his hands and said, "I concede." 

The crowd was already cheering for Shi Lang, and they were agitated by the display of skills from both contestants. 

Shi Lang bowed back to the young man and said, "You held back on the last move." 

Bo Qingtan smiled and shook his head, "You held back too. Otherwise, my spirit shield would have cracked up." 

The Deacon announced, and then Bo Qingtan returned to sit with his peer. The atmosphere in the Dragon Sword galore was gloomy. Xia Lingtai felt as if his pride was crushed. Shi Lang humiliated him and his fellow earlier. He thought this guy was acting cocky because he had the support of the Sword Peak. 

Now that he discovered this guy to be the strongest sword peak disciple, the desire for revenge has gone out of the window. All he cared about was not to offend him again. Bo Qingtan saw this and did not say anything. He was well aware that the students of the Dragon Sword Sect had been arrogant. Today's loss was a good thing for them. 

After Bo Qingtan settled, the Deacon said, "Disciple Shi Lang can take his time to replenish his spiritual energy. Snow Maiden Peak, please select your contestant." 

The terran nodded and sat down on the stage to absorb spiritual energy. After a few minutes, when he opened his eyes, he found a young lady standing before him. He stood up and greeted her with clasped fists. 

The young lady said, "Greetings, fellow Daoist Shi. I am Yun Xue. Thank you for your advice." 

Shi Lang smiled, and Yun Xue asked, "Are you not surprised I am still taking up the challenge?" 

The terran was surprised, but he shook his head. He replied, "I am not." 

Yun Xue asked, "Why? After watching your strength, I guess not many people would like to fight you head-on." 

She was very curious about this guy before her. He did not lose his calm even once when facing Bo Qingtan. On the contrary, he was even excited to fight and laughed like a battle maniac. 

Shi Lang smiled faintly, "You said it just now. Not many people would like to fight me, but you are not among those many people. That is why I am not surprised." 

Yun Xue was surprised, and then she smiled. Her smile made the place glow with life as she said, "You are very articulate, Fellow Daoist." 

Shi Lang shook his head and said, "Shall we fight?" 

Yun Xue nodded and unsheathed her sword, but then she asked, "What about your weapon?" 

Shi Lang glanced at the wooden stalk he was holding and said, "It is alright. Please do not worry. Let us exchange to our heart content." 

The Deacon glanced at the two people and said, "Begin." 

The two people took a step forward, but then they stopped. Yun Xue said, "I have a proposal." 

Shi Lang was surprised and nodded after a few seconds. He asked, "What is it?" 

Yun Xue smiled and said, "I will make one move. If you fail to block it, I will win. If you manage to block, then you can attack me. If I failed to block the attack, you win. If I block, then we can continue." 

Before Shi Lang could react, the entire arena reacted. They all exploded in murmurs. Shi Lang could tell that the people thought this method was unfair or boring. However, he nodded. 

Liang Ping commented, "What is Junior Brother even thinking?" 

Wen Lengxue added, "He is playing along." 

Her voice was akin to a whisper, but everyone heard this. Maio Jing smiled and said, "Why do I feel he wishes to end this in one move?" 

The people turned to look at her, and Bai Yan said, "You are sipping on Third Elder's spirit wine again?" 

Maio Jing pouted and snorted before she said, "Hey, I quit drinking." 

Xu Guang remarked, "Does not seem like it. That person you are talking about is Yun Xue, Sword Fairy Yun Xue. Do you know why people call her that?" 

Hu Shan nodded and said, "Indeed, this opponent is even scarier than Bo Qingtan. Only because she has gained a name for herself recently does not mean that her skills are shallow." 

All the people nodded and turned their heads back to focus on the stage. 

...

Yun Xue asked, "Would you like to go first?" 

Shi Lang shook his head and said, "Senior Sister Yun, if possible, use your strongest move." 

Surprised, Yun Xue raised her eyebrow and asked, "Are you sure?" 

Shi Lang nodded, and Yun Xue raised her sword. The crowd was in uproar, and the surroundings turned cold. 

...

Mei Lingyao looked at the scene and remarked, "The intent of ice. To think this child managed to reach this level at such a fast pace. You have a great talent in your sect, Senior Yue." 

Yue Shi smiled and raised her head. Long Shan stroked his beard and said, "Indeed, what Xiao Mei said is true. This time, Xiao Bo will learn something new." 

The same thing could be applied to the Spirit Heart Sect disciples. 

...

Yun Xue said, "This technique is called Slashing Snow Maiden." 

Shi Lang nodded and commented, "It is indeed strong to think you have incorporated the attribute of ice in your attack, capable of freezing everything, even the stones. If my speculation is correct, you have yet to reach the peak of this technique, right?" 

Surprised, Yun Xue said, "You are talented, Fellow Daoist Shi Lang." 

Shi Lang smiled and said, "I am ready when you are." 

Yun Xue smiled, and her white sword made a sharp, high-pitched sound. The young man focused on the sword and found it exquisite. He would have asked Raksha what was going on if not for the Immortal Kings and Quasi Immortal Emperors scrutinizing him. 

Snowflakes appeared in the void. They looked delicate and fragile, but the sharpness radiating through them sent chills through the crowd. Hu Shan could not help but comment, "Such a terrifying force. I sense a shallow trace of sword intent." 

Wen Lengxue looked at the stage and said, "The reason behind this shallow trace is because the intent is not focused on us, but look at Shi Lang." 

When everyone looked at the situation, they understood what Wen Lengxue meant. Shi Lang's clothes had cut marks on them. The crowd was also surprised. They did not expect this technique to be so destructive. Some worried for Shi Lang, and some anticipated what he would do. 

The young man smiled and asked, "The storm of snowflakes that freezes anything, even death." 

Yun Xue nodded and said, "I will release them now. You can try to defend, but if you fail or have doubts, you should invoke some defensive measures. I cannot control this technique completely now."

Shi Lang smiled and nodded. The next moment, Yun Xue lowered her sword, and the flurry of snowflakes shot forward at Shi Lang. The young man did not move as he watched the snowflakes enclose him. 

Let alone the crowd. Even Yun Xue was shocked at this. In her mind, facing such a technique without defending herself was suicide. However, just when she was about to withdraw, she noticed a blue light sparking inside the cloud of snowflakes. 

Shi Lang stood in the center of the snowflake storm. His torso was bare, reduced to dust when the snowflakes revolved around him. The Terran took a deep breath, and a ray of Lightning appeared in his hand. The end of the Lightning was connected to the wooden stalk he was holding. 

It was a sword of Lightning, and Shi Lang said, "Since you have shown me your best attack, I will show you my best too." 

The voice echoed throughout the arena, followed by a few words, "Spirit Heart Sword." 

The people noticed the cloud of snowflakes was thinning. As the sight became clearer, they all saw a streak of Lightning dancing around Shi Lang. This tiny streak was evaporating all the snowflakes quickly. That was not what shocked the people, and the sword held by Shi Lang took them aback. 

The technique that Shi Lang mentioned was the secret technique of the Spirit Heart Sect. Only the core disciples were allowed to learn this. It was said that this sword cut through the void once mastered and killed the enemy a thousand miles away. 

Shi Lang was using this sword, which means he must understand it. The terran flicked his sword, and Yun Xue's face turned pale. She had never felt such fear. This flick of a wrist made her fear for her life. Elder Yue Shi appeared before her and created a spirit barrier. She looked at Shi Lang with a cold gaze. 

The terran bowed his head slightly and said, "I apologize elder, but the move was just a means to threaten. I have not mastered it to that high level." 

The next moment a few strands of hair fell from Yun Xue's head. The thumping heart skipped a beat. She would have died just now if Shi Lang had used a mastered move.
