This round of the contest was much more intense than that of the yesterday, as the fighters were all young geniuses. Each one of them had already paved their own way and inherited great magic from their sects.

Divine light sparkled all over the sky. Various magic skills were appearing and great aura was everywhere. There was a moment that they felt as if this was a battlefield in ancient historical times, striking every cultivator. Now they knew their difference with those geniuses. If they were there in the field, they would be struck down in less than three movements.

Feng Tianming via Lu Qianchen. In the field, the sword power rushed up to the sky and ripped apart the clouds. Lu Qianchen was continuously defusing the sword power with thunder patterns. The attacks from both sides were as fierce as a tempest. There were no unnecessary movements. Every attack was the most accurate motion towards each other.

Lu Qianchen was standing in the air in a white robe. “Sky Thunder Defeating!” As he roared, several peals of thunder and bolts of lightning as thick as arms hacked down fiercely. When they were about to strike him, Feng Tianming held the sword to block off two most fatal peals of thunder and avoided the remaining thunder by turning his body several times.

Right at the moment, another slashing thunder ray appeared under his feet, which was Ground Thunder Defeating. Feng Tianming reacted in a split second and inserted the sword hard into the ground, whereupon he jumped into the air. But again he was greeted with Demon Thunder Defeating from Lu Qianchen. Lu Qianchen kept exerting his thunder patterns with perfect timing.

“Clank!”

Scarlet Heaven Sword was finally drawn out!

Feng Tianming pointed with his finger while turning around. The sword in the ground rang clearly and flew out of the sheath, aiming to cut Lu Qianchen. Lu Qianchen exerted Thunder Evasion to avoid it quickly.

A red sword ray ripped apart the vast sky, causing this entire area vibrating. After it disappeared, people saw that Lu Qianchen was floating ahead in his white robe, safe and sound. He condensed another peal of divine thunder and rushed forward. Feng Tianming instantly changed into a flash of red light with the sword in his hand to confront him.

Head disciple in Shushan via the number two genius who excelled at thunder patterns. The most aggressive swordsman via the most aggressive thunder patterns. Their fighting was like a pin against an awl. During the confrontation of Scarlet Heaven Sword and thunder patterns, the aura was whooshing around the entire battlefield.

The collision between them was getting more violent with the explosive sound lingering on unceasingly. All cultivators were stunned with racing hearts, as if there was a big hammer, knocking on their hearts.

“Scarlet Heaven Sword Power!”

Feng Tianming howled loudly and the sword in his hand burst out dazzling red light, where there was an aura of emperor spreading around. This sword was formed with the cultivation of an emperor and obtained by Liu Bang. Besides the red light from the sword blade, its ornaments, the shining balls and Jiuhua Jade, also gave out brilliant rays. Later on, streams of red sword power were discharging out of the sword.

Lu Qianchen condensed his aura into beams of thunder and lightning as thick as a person with both hands and struck them forward hard to confront the horrific sword power. The sound of thunder was booming on and on as Scarlet Heaven Sword Power collided with the thunder and lightning. The sword power of the emperor was overpowering now and two streams of sword power broke through the thunder and lightning to cut Lu Qianchen. But he avoided them by maneuvering the thunder to flash away.

Once again, Feng Tianming struck out dozens of beams of Scarlet Heaven Sword Power, aiming to seal Lu Qianchen inside the sword power. But Lu Qianchen flashed by continuously with Thunder Evasion. The sword power failed to hit him. As he was about to fight back, he found that a red holy sword was charging from his side, leaving him with no way out.

“Spurt!”

To everyone’s surprise, Lu Qianchen turned into beams of lightning after being cut by Scarlet Heaven Sword and vanished in the air. Moments later, the lightning rays in the shape of water evolved into billows in the sky, while Feng Tianming was trapped in them tightly.

“Water Thunder Defeating!”

Following the majestic voice, a huge thunder cloud was gathered in the air and melted into the billows. A thunder ocean was thus formed and started to press onto the person in it.

People could only see a huge water ball made of the billows with numerous thunder snakes shuttling inside it. The blustering thunder power struck Feng Tianming. Feng Tianming didn’t pause and used the sword to cut the oncoming dozens of claps of thunder and lightning vigorously.

Then he turned to cut laterally, eliminating another sneaking lightning snake. He then rotated the sword-holding hand rapidly while his body was slightly moving along with it.

“Eh? He has practiced Senjin Sword Dance to such extent. Very good.” The headmaster of Unfettered Sect nodded and smiled, slightly waving the folding fan.

Other elders and headmasters also nodded their approval. This kind of swordsmanship had great lethality and a wide attack range. The cultivator had to exert nearly one thousand moves within a short time and struck out each beam of sword power with all his strength without stopping, so he must be highly qualified. Now Feng Tianming was able to exert it so smoothly. He definitely had melted this skill into the swordsmanship.

“Clang!”

Nearly a thousand sharp beams of sword power swung out. They were more vigorous than the power of All Sword Dfeating. Carrying the fighter’s powerful sword will, they ripped apart the water ball thoroughly. Then Feng Tianming kicked Scarlet Heaven Sword out, whereupon it shot up to the sky formidably. People saw that a long red rainbow pierced the sky and the thick black clouds there were ripped apart.

Lu Qianchen inside the thunder clouds fought back with the thunder sword and beat back Scarlet Heaven Sword after a short while. But Feng Tianming immediately rushed up to the sky to catch Scarlet Heaven Sword against the trend and moved forward to slash him again. In several times of breath, they struck each other dozens of times. Unexpectedly, Lu Qianchen could catch up with Feng Tianming’s movements as Fighting Thunder Defeating he was using now was swift and violent. It was the only body movement within his six thunder techniques.

But it still couldn’t defeat the swordsman of Shushan concentrating on swordsmanship in the end. The ever-changing swordsmanship was not something that could be easily broken through by an outsider. Lu Qianchen struck out a thunderstorm at once and then fled away with Thunder Evasion.

“Turbulent Sea and Wave!”

Feng Tianming roared aloud and slashed laterally again. A beam of sword power with a width of hundreds of feet and a height of dozens of feet rushed out furiously. As soon as the red sword power appeared, the field they were in collapsed for several inches. A burst of raging waves swept by and was howling past every cultivator’s face off the field.

“Thunder God Raging!”

Facing the powerful sword power, Lu Qianchen flew to the sky and conjured with both hands. Then a blue Thunder God Shadow was called out. He was glowering at all living creatures. Next, he took a divine blue lightning hammer and smashed to the sword power.

“Boom!”

There was a violent explosion. With them being the center, a huge spot was formed. It grew bigger and bigger with the raging aura spreading around. When all the light faded away, people could see the situation there clearly. Thunder God Shadow and the sword power all disappeared completely. Both of them were injured, but Lu Qianchen got more injuries.

“Hmm, the sword power is formidable, so is the hammer from Thunder God Shadow. If I take them with my physical body, I might be injured slightly.” Wang Bugui was pondering, rubbing his chin. When the other three heard his words, they couldn’t help biting their gingiva.

As they were all sighing about the strong power of the sword and the thunder hammer, their elder brother was thinking about the result of taking the attack with his physical body. It seemed to him that a minor injury was enough already. The attack had actually concentrated all the energy of two geniuses. After taking it only with the physical body, he thought he would just get a minor injury. They didn’t know what to say.

“Well, catastrophe is more horrible. It can cut me half to death.” Wang Bugui nodded and said, with his chin in his hand.

“Elder brother, please stop talking.” Zhao Changge said. He hadn’t seen the catastrophe ever. Even his Master might not be able to see it until he had reached the saint stage. Yu Wude and Lyu Hao were also upset about the huge gap of the capability between them and their elder brother, so they kept smacking lips.

While they were talking, the two people in the field had attacked each other many times. The speed of Scarlet Heaven Sword was so fast that only vague shadows could be seen. Lu Qianchen was also as quick as a flash, leaving shadows like lightning. In a short while, they again exchanged a hundred moves. At last, they hit each other with the palm and flew backwards respectively, staring at each other far away.

“Let’s stop here. Make a winner with the last attack!” Feng Tianming pointed at Lu Qianchen with his sword.

“That’s exactly what I think! Please!” Lu Qianchen cupped his fists.

“To destroy the heavens with a single move. To strike the world and become an immortal with one attack!”

Feng Tianming closed his eyes to recite abstruse spells. In an instant, his aura increased sharply. Beams of fierce sword will rushed out from his body and was going to rip apart the firmament.

“Five hundred Thunder Gods rest in the palm. The sky falls and the earth opens up. Demons and ghosts come here. And they turn into ashes!”

Lu Qianchen also recited spells, while conjuring quickly with both hands. Thunder rays burst out around his body. Layers of black clouds gathered in the sky and inside it were hundreds of thunder snakes shuttling incessantly.

“Oh! Aren’t they Immortal Surprising Sword and Five Thunder God Spell? I can’t believe that they’ve understood the essence of these divine spells. They indeed live up to their reputation of being called prodigies!” The headmaster of Zhenyang Sect gasped. And other elders in the palace were also sighing over and over.

“Immortal Surprising Sword!”

“Five Thunder God Spell!”

Feng Tianming and Lu Qianchen cried out at the same time and then rushed towards each other.

Feng Tianming pointed his sword forward with a single hand and rushed ahead with infinite Scarlet Heaven Sword Power and his strong sword will. Lu Qianchen, whose white robe was fluttering in the wind, called out five hundred beams of thunder and lightning as thick as a bucket from the thunder clouds in the air to fly forward together with him.

“Crack! Boom!”

People saw a red rainbow and a blue rainbow piercing the sky and confronting each other instantly. Their violent collision even overshadowed the heaven and earth. Two half balls of light with different colors spread around, making the area they arrived all broken into bits.

This sight continued for almost half a minute when the light finally faded away. People were looking for the two as they wanted to know what the result was.

“Well, Lu Qianchen is the weak one at last.” A sigh from Wang Bugui was heard, which shocked all cultivators. They started to explore with telekinesis more carefully. Moments later, they found that Feng Tianming was standing with his sword in the field, in front of whom Lu Qianchen half knelt on the ground, coughing blood. They were at a loss for words now, as they didn’t expect that Wang Bugui could perceive the situation so early.

“Haha. I’m the weaker one. Cough…” Lu Qianchen coughed blood with one hand clenching on his breast. Though losing the battle, he was still degage and detached.

“If you fight me with all your strength, I will be forced to do that, too. Why did you suppress your power?” Feng Tianming inserted the sword into the sheath and asked.

“No need to do that. I know I’m not a match for you. And my younger sister does not need me to explore the way for her. Facing her talents, you cannot win, either.” Lu Qianchen said with a sorrowful smile.

“I like powerful opponents. They will stimulate me to become stronger. It’s the only way for me to practice my swordsmanship!” Feng Tianming replied confidently and then turned to leave.

The first battle for the last eight was ended with Feng Tianming’s winning. It was really fantastic. All cultivators were looking forward to the following battle, hoping that they could understand their own cultivation form it.
