The speed at which Gu Feng unleashed his attack was as fast as lightning. However, that evil ghost was not the type of person who could only speak. Although he was shocked by the strength that Gu Feng had displayed, his reaction was still not slow. As the longsword in Gu Feng's hand swiftly enlarged in his eyes, he quickly took a step back without any hesitation.

Terrifying battle intent rapidly rose as a low roar sounded out from his throat. The Spiritual Energy within his body was circulated to the extreme at this moment.

"Brat, I don't believe that a mere 8th level Stellar Martial Cultivator like you can defeat me." The evil ghost's eyes were bloodshot as it roared in a low voice. And then above his head, a river of stars hung horizontally. The river of stars was resplendent, and spiritual energy was flowing within it. Within the river of stars, there were two extremely large and resplendent stars. Although Gu Feng only had the talent to travel by fate, the brightness of the light was comparable to that of Luo Yuan, who Gu Feng had met before.

The pressure from the river of stars was even stronger.

"Indeed, a talent for fate cannot truly determine a person's strength." Gu Feng's eyes narrowed as he whispered to himself. For the evil ghost, a two star talent would be able to easily defeat Luo Yuan, who had a three star talent.

Gu Feng's eyes slightly narrowed, he didn't dare to have the slightest bit of carelessness. This was an opponent even more powerful than Luo Yuan. Although he had a 5-star talent in Fate, which could easily suppress his opponent, he could not use it. He could only rely on his own strength to fight back.

However, it was a good thing that he was cultivating the Life and Death Art, which was a freakish cultivation technique. This river of stars did not give him a strong sense of oppression.

The moment the Spiritual Energy within his body surged out, the evil ghost did not slow down at all and the tip of his spear trembled, causing over ten afterimages to appear. The afterimages suddenly closed, and the entire spear turned into a dazzling light that pierced towards the ancient storm.

"Dragon-Breaking Spear!"

With a low roar in his heart, the evil ghost stabbed the long spear in his hand towards the long sword that Gu Feng had chopped down. The spear vibrated, accompanied by the sounds of dragons and tigers. At the same time, powerful Spiritual Energy surged down from the river of stars in the sky.

Under the stares from the crowd, a dazzling light brought with it a monstrous force. This power caused quite a number of people to make an uproar. This power was comparable to that of a first level Pure Body Realm martial practitioner. "It's no wonder that this evil ghost could defeat an initial Pure Body Realm martial artist. With this move, he could definitely deal with the enemy in one move.

Everyone looked at Gu Feng, their hearts filled with regret. Without a doubt, Gu Feng would definitely be defeated by this move of the evil ghost. It might even inflict serious injuries.

In the spectator's grandstand, Yu Feng's eyes flickered with a brilliant light as he stared fixedly at the battle stage. A silver light flashed in his hand, accompanied by the sound of thunder. As soon as something was wrong, he would charge forward.

Gu Feng's expression was still calm. For someone who had lived for two lifetimes, he had even seen life and death before, therefore, relying on this kind of attack to force him to retreat was undoubtedly a pipe dream. However, the other party being able to use his full strength to resist in such a short period of time was still enough to cause Gu Feng to be shocked by the sinister evil ghost.

"No matter how much you struggle today, there is only one path you can take!" Gu Feng shouted.

At the same time, the spiritual energy in his body also surged out, pouring into the rusted longsword. In the blink of an eye, brilliant rays of light shot out in all directions, filling the entire hall. A chilling sword intent soared into the sky.

"Thunderclap Sword Tactic!"

Gu Feng let out a low roar and the entire space resounded with the sound of thunder. Following that, Gu Feng's rigidity disappeared on the spot. The Thunderclap Sword Tactic was Mo Li's personal gift to Gu Feng. Although it was not some profound martial art, it had reached the realm of a Profound Grade Four martial art and was extremely powerful.

"Bam!"

The moment the two came into contact, a loud sound erupted from the battleground. With a loud bang, the hard stone slab where the two had come into contact with each other was directly shattered into powder. Crack lines repeatedly spread out like a spider web.

"Crack!"

A powder rose from the ground. In the instant when the sword and spear made contact, a cracking sound of metal breaking was suddenly emitted from the point of contact. Soon after, a human figure suddenly shot out from the faint dust and spat out a mouthful of bright red fresh blood.

Countless number of gazes followed the human figure and hurriedly swept over it. When their gazes saw the person who had been defeated, the War Hall instantly descended into silence.

At the edge of the plaza, the Evil Ghost Robe had been shattered into pieces by the clash of energy. His entire body was covered in bruises from the rocks that had shot out, and the blood at the corner of his mouth made him look extremely miserable. Of course, the most shocking thing was the two broken spears held by the Evil Ghost's bloodied hands.

"It actually broke?" A collective gasp could be heard from the audience. This was far too shocking. The long spear in the evil ghost's hand was very sturdy. It actually broke in the clash with Gu Feng, which really shocked them.

"You've lost." From the smoke and dust came the sound of slow footsteps. A youth walked out. Although his clothes were somewhat tattered as well, they had been shattered by the force of the collision. However, compared to the Demonic Ghost's battered appearance, it was many times better.

"Haha, you think you can win just by resisting my move? You are too naive. " The evil ghost grinned as a crazed look flashed across its eyes.

Gu Feng's eyes couldn't help but narrow when he saw the evil ghost's expression.

Then, with a wave of his evil palm, a red pellet appeared within his palm.

"Gulp."

The evil ghost directly swallowed it. After a moment, a berserk energy rose from the evil ghost's body.

"Kid, I did not expect you to be able to force me to eat this medicinal pill. Today, it is worth it even if you die." The evil ghost opened its eyes with a cruel look and sneered at Gu Feng.

The audience also went silent. They couldn't help but lose their minds as they felt the aura of the evil ghost. This aura had already reached the pure body realm. Could it be that this evil ghost had sensed something in the center of the battle and directly advanced?

"He ate a medicinal pill." This was, after all, the inner hall. Many disciples had seen this with their own eyes and had instantly discovered the problem. They could not help but cry out with a slightly changed expression.

Pills were strictly prohibited when fighting against each other. This was especially true for pills that could increase one's Spiritual Energy. If they were to be found out, they would definitely be severely punished.
