Chapter 600 - Another Duel

Chapter 600 - Another Duel

Grandmaster Hai stopped his disciple, who wouldn’t even know how he died if he rushed in. The fact that Liu Wuxie could survive this long wasn’t entirely due to his wits but also his combat skills.

Furthermore, Grandmaster Hai sensed that someone might be guarding Liu Wuxie from the shadows. It was perplexing how the House of Tea Art had shielded Liu Wuxie in Serene Sea City, hinting at the presence of hidden experts. This possibility made Grandmaster Hai wary, prompting him to tread carefully in his actions.

“Master, Liu Wuxie dared to take another life in front of you, disrupting the talisman event. He should be executed!” Tian Lie growled, barely suppressing his anger. His junior brothers weren’t in any better position because they were gripping tight on their swords, ready to strike at any moment.

“Liu Wuxie, you dare take another life in my presence? If you don’t give me an explanation today, don’t even think about leaving this place alive!” Grandmaster Hai stopped his disciples from attacking, but that didn’t mean he would let Liu Wuxie off. If he didn’t kill kim, his name would plummet.

“Oh? You want to make a move against me?” Liu Wuxie looked at Grandmaster Hai with a mocking smile. If the latter dared to strike, Liu Wuxie would counter with the Earth-Binding Chains and Heavenly Dragon Seal, determined to peel a layer of skin off Grandmaster Hai even if he couldn’t kill him.

“I’ll kill you today to cleanse the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion!” Grandmaster Hai roared.

His words won him applause from the Lesser Blade Association. “He must be a spy sent by the Azure Crimson Gate to defame the pills of our Heavenly Treasure Pavilion!”

Grandmaster Hai slowly advanced toward Liu Wuxie, his murderous intent radiating from him. Qing Mu was his best friend, and he could give his friend a gift by killing Liu Wuxie today.

However, Liu Wuxie merely stood still, unfazed.

“Liu Wuxie, kneel and beg for mercy!” the Lesser Blade Association members yelled.

Ye Dao sheathed his blade. He knew he didn’t need to intervene as Grandmaster Hai would kill Liu Wuxie.

“Old bastard, you think someone like you can kill me? What a joke!” Liu Wuxie sneered.

He naturally had his own trump cards, which gave him the confidence to disrupt the Lesser Blade Association’s sales channel and enter Treasure City alone. However, he preferred not to rely on them unless absolutely necessary, as doing so might hinder his plans in the long term.

Grandmaster Hai trembled angrily and struck Liu Wuxie with all his might. His attack bore down like a mountain, leveling the nearby buildings and showcasing his power in the Nascent Transformation Realm.

This was the true power of someone in the Nascent Transformation Realm, capable of ripping through space with their laws. The laws formed a prison that trapped Liu Wuxie within, leaving him no room to escape.

The spectators all backed a thousand meters away, fearing getting caught in the crossfire.

Liu Wuxie’s hair tie snapped, and the Heretic Blade appeared in his hand, ready to strike. But right then, a grey figure tore through space and appeared before Liu Wuxie, shattering Grandmaster Hai’s laws manifestation with a resounding slap.

Grandmaster Hai was storming in Liu Wuxie’s direction earlier. But the next moment, he was sent flying, spinning in the air before crashing to the ground.

No one had expected that an expert would lurk nearby, attacking Grandmaster Hai all of a sudden.

The crowd retreated to clear space because the stage had long been ruined from the previous duel.

Tian Lie wasted no time and took out a seventh-grade talisman paper. His technique had vastly exceeded Bing Kaifu.

Liu Wuxie had also produced a seventh-grade talisman paper from his interspatial ring, causing gasps in the surroundings.

“He’s only in the Heavenly Phase Realm, but he knows how to craft a seventh-grade talisman?” many wondered in confusion.

“He’s only showing off here because Elder Yi Xuan is here to back him up!” The Lesser Blade Association members sneered. If not for Elder Yi Xuan, Liu Wuxie would’ve died by now.

The situation had changed, and they could only try to kill Liu Wuxie through a duel.

“Senior brother, kill him!” Lu Jie stepped forward to support his senior brother.

Nodding to his junior brother, Tian Lie waved his hand and began converging spiritual runes in the surroundings, eliciting cheers from the onlookers.

“What an excellent technique!” Many spiritualists praised it. They were more familiar with Tian Lie’s technique, unlike Liu Wuxie’s.

Amid the applause, Tian Lie’s hands moved swiftly, with each spiritual rune wrapped around the talisman paper like a serpent. In just one breath, dozens of spiritual runes had appeared neatly aligned on the talisman paper.

The spiritual runes were high quality, and it was certain to ensure that this would turn out to be a seventh-grade spiritual talisman.

On the contrary, Liu Wuxie’s movements were like before, causing ripples in the air with a single stroke.

This time, everyone watched closely and even used a Memory Talisman to record Liu Wuxie’s technique. They watched for a long time and couldn’t detect any excess movements, not to mention cheating. It was a display of raw skill.

Spiritual runes appeared one after another before Liu Wuxie and flew into the talisman paper as if an invisible force had drawn them.

“What an ingenious technique! Could his skill really surpass ours by that much?” murmured several spiritualists, their confidence beginning to waver as they watched Liu Wuxie’s seamless movements, each action as fluid as flowing water.

Grandmaster Hai’s eye twitched with a deep unease settling over him. Liu Wuxie’s technique was too advanced, and each movement was smooth, like flowing water.

Tian Lie’s performance also drew applause from the surroundings, and he was done crafting his spiritual talisman after fifteen minutes. This was a Heavenly Flame Talisman, and it could unleash blazing flames to incinerate his opponent if thrown out.

This talisman was highly sought after in Treasure City and valued at tens of thousands of spirit stones. It was so popular that the supply couldn’t meet the demand.

Shortly after, Liu Wuxie was also done crafting his spiritual talisman, but there was no golden glow this time. This made everyone wonder if this insignificant-looking talisman could unleash such power. No one knew, and they could only wait for the result.

“Liu Wuxie, the rules are simple. You take my spiritual talisman head-on, and I’ll take yours—no holding back, life or death!” Tian Lie said with a ferocious gleam in his eyes.
