However, just as he was about to retreat, the fire dragon suddenly exploded. Flames immediately surged and wreaked havoc all over the high platform. The formation above flickered with a sparkling light, unceasingly melting away the destructive force the high platform endured!

Thump, thump, thump. The violent power of fire and water produced an extremely destructive force. Zhou Jian retreated and was struck hard in the chest. The clothes on his chest instantly disintegrated into nothingness!

"Puchi!" A mouthful of blood spurted out. Blood flowed out from Zhou Jian's chest, turning into a deep red crater. Even the white bones could be vaguely seen!

"Mm, it smells so good. This barbecue doesn't taste bad. I wonder what it will taste like when it is cooked!" Yin Xiong was unrelenting. He took a step forward and pointed his fingers out, causing the fiery patterns to erupt into flames once more!

"Zhou Jian, retreat, retreat!" At this moment, even the usually calm Liang Ren's expression changed, and he couldn't help but shout out, his face full of anxiety!

However, they had all overlooked Zhou Jian's personality. The sect was in trouble, and as the eldest senior brother, he held the name of the sect's genius. He would not back down no matter what, because once he retreated, it would mean that the Cloud Returning Sword Sect would lose.

"Bring it on!" The pain in his body made him feel faint and dizzy. He used his broadsword to support himself up, while Zhou Jian roared with blood dripping from his mouth. His ferocious face made people shudder!

"Sword of Mount Li!"

Facing the roaring fire dragon, Zhou Jian's eyes were bloodshot. His eyeballs seemed as if they were about to fall out from his eye sockets. He gripped his broadsword tightly and roared in a low voice!

Chi! He gripped the broadsword tightly with both his hands and drew a long line in the air. The air shook and in the next instant, his right hand suddenly pulled and a resplendent light suddenly blossomed!

After the light dissipated, everyone could see that the sword in his right hand was actually a three foot long blade that was as thin as a cicada's wing.

"This is … Sword in the Sword, Double Spiritual Weapon!" Mo Wentian's pupils constricted as he cried out involuntarily. It was already extremely difficult for Zhou Jian to comprehend a dual sword dao, and he could even condense a dual spirit weapon to complement the dual sword dao!

"Good boy. If he doesn't die, he will definitely step into an even higher realm in the future. However …" Tears streamed down Liang Ren's face. He rubbed his eyes as he spoke with gratitude. Zhou Jian had not wasted his long journey to find the python for his antidote. It was just that the situation he was in now was not looking good!

"Sword in the Sword, interesting!" Yin Xiong and the others were also astonished. They couldn't help but exclaim in shock, but soon after, the murderous intent in their eyes intensified. If they allowed such a genius to grow, then the Guyun Sword Sect might reignite again!

The Spiritual Energy in his hand was constantly intertwined as it was continuously injected into the patterns of fire. The even more violent and violent flames were constantly spewing out, burning everything as they charged out!

Shua, shua, shua. Zhou Jian wielded the broadsword in his left hand, the sword in his right hand, and his right foot stomped on the ground. His entire body seemed to have been split into two as two completely different auras soared up from his left and right side respectively!

"Kill!" With a loud shout, the two auras above him began to fuse and fuse together. The heavy and heavy auras combined as the broadsword once again merged together, transforming into a fierce and sharp sword light that descended from the sky!

Huff huff huff, the heavy sword light mixed with sharpness, like a wild beast, it rushed straight towards the fire dragon, its momentum like a hot knife through butter, directly splitting the fire dragon in two!

"What?! Impossible!" Yin Xiong's expression changed as he exclaimed in surprise. Both of his hands quickly formed a seal as a surge of even more powerful and pure spiritual energy was poured into the flame pattern. This attack from Zhou Jian was something that even someone in the later stage of the freezing stage would have to temporarily dodge.

"Chi!" The sword beam cut the roaring fire dragon into two. The two halves seemed to be one as if they were thin and thick, destroying everything in their path as they slashed at the flame pattern!

Boom! The Fire Marks were originally nothing more than spirit energy, but they were instantly annihilated by the endless power and light. The Fire Marks were destroyed, and the source Fire Marks within Yin Xiong's body were completely destroyed. He spat out a mouthful of blood!

However, he could not be bothered with the injuries in his body, because the sword light still chopped down on his head. The destructive aura made all the hairs on his body shudder!

"Shield Mark!" His pupils contracted as he conjured an even more complex and profound rune into the air. A dark yellow light was released from the rune in front of him, forming a spirit energy shield that protected him!

With a rumble, the sword light landed on the shield, producing a deafening collision sound. The massive force continuously struck the shield of light, causing it to crumble, but in the end it did not shatter!

At the same time that the sword aura disappeared, the light of the shield line dimmed. A crack that was hard to see with the naked eye appeared, and it turned into a beam of light as it charged into Yin Xiong's body!

The Fire Marks were directly destroyed, causing his source Fire Marks to be completely damaged. He had received an unprecedented level of damage, and with the addition of the damage to his Shield Marks, his injuries had become even more severe. Even his aura had started to become disorderly!

However, compared to Yin Xiong, Zhou Jian's situation was even worse. His already severely injured body had been forced to use an attack that he did not fully grasp. Now, he could only rely on the broadsword to support his body!

"I want you dead!" Yin Xiong's face was pale, and even his mind was starting to feel dizzy. However, as he looked at Zhou Jian who was still forcefully supporting his body, the murderous intent in his heart was thoroughly infuriated!

"You … Ability... "Come here, come …" Zhou Jian held onto his broadsword, blood gushing out from his mouth as he spoke. He pointed at Yin Xiong with a face full of blood, still unwilling to back down!

Below the stage, Mo Wentian, Liang Ren, Chu Lie, and the others had already turned red with rage as they watched their beloved disciple fight to the death for the honor of the sect. As long as Yin Xiong dared to make a move, even if Xiao Li and his men were here, they would not hesitate to save Zhou Jian!

In any case, everyone present was well aware of the purpose of this time's national tournament, and it was obvious that it was aimed at the Cloud Returning Sword Sect.

"Ignorant thing, do you really think that only offensive symbols can cultivate?" However, what responded to Zhou Jian was Yin Xiong's twisted laughter!

As his voice faded, a jade-green ray of light abruptly shot out from the bottom of his feet. The complicated runes emitted a dense life force as they surrounded Yin Xiong. His injuries were slowly recovering!

"This is a healing rune!" Liang Ren's expression changed as he clenched his fists even tighter. It looked like this fight was unavoidable!

After a moment, Yin Xiong's rising life force came to a standstill. He had already recovered nearly a quarter of his life, and the life rune's power was limited. But with his current strength, killing the dying Zhou Jian was more than enough!
