Chapter 296: Thunder Lightning Armor!

Finally, Ling Feng closed in the Augmented Elemental Thunder Shield surrounding Jinglei Sword King.

Using his own true qi, Ling Feng quickly simulated a smaller version of the Augmented Elemental Thunder Shield, mimicking its method and even matching its rotation speed almost perfectly.

"Merge!"

As the two shields touched, they fused like two bubbles joining together. Ling Feng was overjoyed. As soon as his body entered the Augmented Elemental Thunder Shield, he swung his Eradicator of Realms directly at Jinglei Sword King.

"Scorching Sky Blaze!"

Ling Feng did not hold back and unleashed his most powerful attack. He aimed directly at Jinglei Sword King's head and struck with all his might!

At that moment, Jinglei Sword King realized he had been outsmarted. Ling Feng's sword was already at his face, and the terrifying power of the move carried an inexplicable force that made even a peak Spiritual Sea Realm expert like him feel a shiver of fear. He couldn't move and had no way of dodging.

Given the situation, using only Pulse Formation Realm-level power was futile.

"You've lost."

In that critical moment, Ling Feng diverted his sword away from Jinglei Sword King's vital points, holding back most of his true qi. He merely placed the Eradicator of Realms against Jinglei Sword King's neck.

Feeling the intense Earth-Fire true qi emanating from the black greatsword at his neck, Jinglei Sword King showed a faint smile. "Impressive, kid. Very impressive!"

He was already dead, and even if Ling Feng's sword qi had killed him, as long as his spiritual thoughts remained, he could be reformed using the spiritual power within the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder.

"Thank you for letting me win, Senior."

Ling Feng sheathed his sword and stood tall, a smile playing on his lips.

This time, Ling Feng even managed to clandestinely learn a defensive secret art. Even without any rewards, just possessing this secret art made the trip worthwhile.

After all, not everyone could simply observe and replicate a secret art in a matter of moments.

Jinglei Sword King extended a palm and produced a golden key, offering it to Ling Feng. "Young friend, I must commend you. It's truly impressive how you managed to comprehend the secrets of wielding the Augmented Elemental Thunder Shield in such a short span of time. I am genuinely impressed!"

"Senior, your praise is too generous. I'm already grateful that you're not holding it against me for learning the secret art without permission," Ling Feng replied as he accepted the key. "What is this for?"

Jinglei Sword King smiled faintly. "This is the key to the treasure vault of the sixth level of the Wind and Thunder Trial. Once you enter, you can choose nine items of your liking. Go ahead, I believe you won't be disappointed."

With that, Jinglei Sword King transformed into a streak of lightning and vanished into the tower.

Immediately after, a massive golden gate slowly rose from the center of the platform on the sixth level of the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder.

"Goodness gracious! Can I finally choose valuable items?"

Although Ling Feng hadn't specifically trained in thunder attribute techniques, his unique physique allowed him to use any attribute of true qi without restriction.

With this treasured armor in hand, Ling Feng's mood soared. The previous feeling of having been tricked vanished completely.

"This is definitely worth it, hahaha..."

Inside the golden treasure vault of the Sword Tower of Wind and Thunder, Ling Feng's hearty laughter echoed out...

Half an hour later.

Ling Feng strode out of the sixth-level treasure vault without looking back and stepped into the luminous barrier of the seventh-level trial. With the Thunder Lightning Armor equipped, there was no need to actively recover spiritual energy; it constantly absorbed thunder attribute spiritual energy, tripling the speed at which he replenished his true qi.

...

The seventh level of the Wind and Thunder Trial was also an enormous platform, but it had numerous lakes and hills, making it appear more like an island than part of the Sword Tower.

From high above, a figure gradually descended in front of Ling Feng, hovering slightly in mid-air. This was a robust middle-aged man with a red face and long beard, holding a massive sword in each hand—clearly a dual-wielding swordsman.

"I am Wuji Sword King. You're impressive for passing Jinglei's trial, kid!"

"Senior Wuji, are you also going to suppress your strength to the peak of the Pulse Formation Realm?"

Ling Feng asked cautiously. With the Thunder Lightning Armor, he felt he could remain undefeated if Wuji Sword King also suppressed his strength.

"Of course, but I'm far stronger than Jinglei. The reason you defeated him is mainly because he's a fool. Hmph, I will also suppress my power to the peak Pulse Formation Realm."

Wuji Sword King paused for a moment before continuing, "However, we will fight each other with only swordsmanship!"

"Only swordsmanship?" A smile curved at the corner of Ling Feng's mouth.

Competing only in swordsmanship?

With his Slaughterous Sword Will, he feared no one in pure swordplay!

"Senior Wuji, please be prepared."

Ling Feng said as he lifted the Eradicator of Realms. Using a basic sword stance, he thrust a seemingly simple and unremarkable strike towards Wuji Sword King.

At first glance, this strike appeared ordinary, almost excessively so. However, Wuji Sword King was astonished to find that this strike had no flaws nor openings.

"Interesting!"

Wuji Sword King's eyes sparkled with brilliance. It seems like this young man's mastery in swordsmanship is far greater than I had anticipated!
