Chapter 94: Divine Sword Slays Dragon, It’s You Who Tried Your Best, Not Me!

On the arena, Meng Changqing faced Cui Qian from a distance. At the same time, he observed Cui Qian’s character panel.

Basic Information:

【Name: Cui Qian】

【Race: Human】

【Cultivation: Ninth Level of Sea Crossing Realm】

Attribute Information:

【Root Bone: Second Grade】

【Comprehension: Excellent】

【Innate Talent: Spirit Footwork】

【Martial Arts Skills: “Earth Fire Divine Dragon Whirlwind” (Perfection), “Treading Fire and Controlling Wind Technique” (Mastery)...】

“Not bad attributes, and he also has talent,” Meng Changqing nodded slightly in his heart. “Spirit Footwork. From the name, are his feet naturally agile? It should be more than just that. After all, the Spirit Eyes I obtained from my aunt also start with ‘spirit,’ but their effects far surpass those of nimble hands or iron hands.

“In terms of basic attributes, they are similar to Xu You’s. So, the main reason he can occupy thirty-eighth place on the Hidden Dragon Ranking should be because of this Spirit Footwork,” Meng Changqing’s gaze fell on his opponent’s feet.

He saw Cui Qian wearing a pair of blue high-top boots with many mysterious patterns embroidered on them.

What’s most crucial was that they emanated a strong spirituality.

Obviously, they were high-level spirit weapons!

“I didn’t expect there to be such a master among the true disciples of Spirit Peak,” Cui Qian spoke up, his hands behind his back, eyes faintly flickering with firelight.

His whole aura gradually became intense.

“It’s indeed very surprising,” Meng Changqing said slowly.

“But you’re still lacking to defeat me,” Cui Qian said.

“Let’s find out after we fight,” Meng Changqing drew the long sword from his waist.

He could feel it.

The person in front of him was definitely not someone Xu You could compare to, but rather an outstanding talent similar to a top genius like Red Gold.

He’s also a pretty good whetstone.

“As you wish!” Cui Qian’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Flames surged under his feet, and fire rose to the sky.

Faintly, there seemed to be the sound of a dragon’s roar.

“Earth Fire Divine Dragon – Fire as Swift as a Knife!”

With his words, the raging flames seemed to come alive, emitting angry roars.

And Cui Qian disappeared from his original position.

When he reappeared, he was already in front of Meng Changqing.

His sharp legs, like giant knives in the fire, directly attacked Meng Changqing’s head.

Clang!

Meng Changqing raised his hand. The spirit sword clashed with his legs, sparking.

“Treading Fire and Controlling Wind – Wounded Body!”

Firelight surged in Cui Qian’s eyes, but his figure suddenly blurred, turning into dozens of afterimages in an instant!

Each afterimage’s aura was almost identical, making it difficult to distinguish!

Whoosh!

The afterimages all attacked Meng Changqing from all directions, leaving no gaps!

“Great footwork!” Meng Changqing’s eyes shimmered with brightness. “This should be one of the supreme arts of Flame Sun Valley. It’s truly remarkable. Faced with such footwork, ordinary people would have a hard time distinguishing between true and false.”

However...

“Spirit Eyes, activate!” Meng Changqing’s eyes emitted a spiritual light, as if piercing through illusions, directly seeing the truth!

At this moment, in his vision, all the afterimages disappeared, leaving only one person on the left.

“I’ve found you!” Meng Changqing drew his sword with his right hand, unleashing a huge sword wheel!

As it rolled, it bloomed like a lotus, with densely packed dark gold sword energy surging out, instantly engulfing Cui Qian.

“Great Transcendent – Heavenly Lotus Sword Wheel!”

Boom!

The huge arena of hundreds of meters shook!

Dust flew, and stones splattered!

Although the material of the arena was quite hard, even a normal ninth-level Sea Cleaving Realm cultivator would find it difficult to damage.

But at this moment, cracks appeared, indicating the immense power of this sword!

In the thick dust...

A figure flew out, and it was Cui Qian.

“Good!” Cui Feiting’s heart relaxed slightly.

It seemed that Cui Qian was basically going to win.

For a moment, everyone seemed to think that Meng Changqing’s defeat was certain.

Only Mo Yunling stood there, arms crossed, her eyes filled with anticipation.

Cui Qian had shown all his cards, but Junior Brother Meng hadn’t!

To her, this battle had been without suspense from the beginning.

Junior Brother Meng probably just wanted to have some fun. Otherwise, he could have resolved it instantly!

“Meng Changqing, you did your best,” Cui Qian sighed lightly, looking at Meng Changqing with renewed confidence. “Your potential is high. Given time, you might not be unable to defeat me, but not today.”

However, Meng Changqing just smiled faintly and shook his head.

“How do you know that I tried my best?”

With those words, Meng Changqing closed his eyes.

When he opened them again, his entire aura suddenly changed!

Like a long-sealed divine sword finally unsheathed, boundless sharpness surged between heaven and earth!

It seems as if even the heavens and earth could be completely shattered!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The sturdy arena displayed countless cracks, as if being swept and shattered by numerous sword lights in an instant!

Whoosh!

Under the infusion of this aura, countless golden sword qi trembled frantically, with their aura soaring!

The sharp intent even shattered the clouds in the sky, revealing an endless expanse of clear sky!

“Impossible!”

Seeing this scene, Cui Qian’s face drastically changed, pale as paper, with an expression of disbelief in his eyes.

“Sword Qi!”

“You actually comprehend Sword Qi!”

With his mind momentarily losing focus, he almost couldn’t stabilize the techniques he was about to unleash.

Fortunately, he quickly reacted.

He couldn’t be wrong!

Just a glance, and it felt like his soul was about to be torn apart!

It’s Sword Qi!

The legendary martial arts force, something he had been pursuing all along!

But comprehending Sword Qi was too difficult!

Apart from talent and accumulation, timing was also crucial!

The top thirty elites on the Hidden Dragon Ranking mostly comprehend it at the ninth level of the Sea Cleaving Realm, which was almost at the Dao Creation Realm.

But this guy in front of him?

He clearly just entered the Sea Cleaving Realm!

Which means he probably had it even at the Aperture Connecting Realm!

“How is this possible?”

Cui Qian’s hands and feet turned cold.

The appearance of Meng Changqing truly refreshed his understanding.

And if he knew that Meng Changqing had it when he was in the Vein Tempering Realm, his Dao Heart might just shatter!

“Suppress.”

Meng Changqing held the sword in his right hand and casually slashed towards Cui Qian.

Whoosh!

The sea of swords surged, like the Milky Way pouring down from the nine heavens!

The sword pond turned over!

Countless sword qi surged towards Cui Qian.

Its sharpness covered the sky and earth, causing the fire dragon that Cui Qian had condensed to tremble frantically!

“Ah!”

Waking up abruptly, Cui Qian didn’t choose to retreat.

Instead, he gritted his teeth and went to meet it!

Because there was no room for retreat!

Although there was no chance of winning, he had to fight at least!

Boom!

However, there was no suspense at the moment of impact.

The huge fire dragon was instantly submerged, its head severed, its body torn apart, and finally only a faint flame remained, extinguished in the surging sea of swords.
