Chapter 11: Showdown! Core Formation Cultivator Jiang Ren (2/2)

Many people shook their heads helplessly, mourning for the foolish boy, while others muttered curses, saying that Jiang Ren did not adhere to martial ethics, bullying the weak so brazenly.

The moment Ning Wuxie stepped onto the stage, the patterns around the arena lit up, and several large characters appeared in the air above the stage.

[Ning Wuxie vs. Jiang Ren: Three Moves, Bet: Absolute Cloud Negative Qi Array]

This was displayed by the Hermit Valley arena, reflecting the will of both parties, and it would not be falsified.

Seeing this scene, the crowd below was once again astonished.

In a seat farther from the arena, a man shrouded in a black robe, his face obscured, leaned back. Beside him, a woman dressed in a white dress with a light veil spoke to him.

“Master, he must have been humiliated by this guy, losing his head in anger, which is why he rashly agreed to the duel. Please do not be angry…”

Although the veil covered her face, her pair of beautiful autumn eyes remained stunning, and her figure was tall and graceful, exuding an ethereal quality.

If Ning Wuxie had seen her, he would have recognized her at a glance as his former idol and the enemy who had caused his demise, the future Human Emperor Li Luobing!

Upon hearing Li Luobing’s plea, Master Wuyuan let out a cold snort, remaining silent.

The duel on the stage had already begun.

Facing the arriving Ning Wuxie, Jiang Ren mocked him wantonly.

“Little Refining Qi, you don’t plan to use a mortal steel sword to block me, do you?” Jiang Ren’s expression was mocking.

Clang—

A blue long sword shot up from behind Jiang Ren, creating a sword light that soared several meters high, hovering behind him.

“Strike a more impressive pose,” Jiang Ren waved his hand, seemingly intending to kill Ning Wuxie with a single move.

Ning Wuxie unwrapped the long cloth around his sword and silently assumed a starting posture.

Jiang Ren glanced at him, his disdain even more pronounced.

Whoosh—

The sound of the sword cutting through the air echoed! Jiang Ren’s flying sword dove down from the sky, heading straight for Ning Wuxie’s head!

The entire arena fell silent, as everyone awaited the bloody scene to unfold.

Ning Wuxie remained motionless, as if stunned by fear, until the sword tip was less than a meter away, when he suddenly dodged!

Jiang Ren’s flying sword could not stop in time, crashing into the arena floor with a mournful clang.

The crowd watching below erupted in an uproar!

Xuan’er, covering her eyes in fear, heard the commotion and uncovered her small hands, only to see her brother still standing on the stage unharmed, letting out a sigh of relief.

Even Elder Xuanji and Master Wuyuan could not help but widen their eyes.

This Refining Qi cultivator’s combat experience was remarkably rich, and his temperament was exceptionally stable!

Ordinary cultivators, when faced with such an attack, would certainly want to defend, but that would play right into Jiang Ren’s hands; how could a mortal weapon compete with a magical treasure?

Just now, if Ning Wuxie had dodged a second later, he would have been pierced through!

At that moment, the crowd began to realize that this Refining Qi cultivator was not as simple as they had thought.

Ning Wuxie shifted his position without hesitation, turning to face the flying sword that had just crashed hard. The Ink Splattering Knife Technique fell like rain!

Now he was a Refining Qi cultivator, and the techniques contained spiritual power, making his strength more than ten times that of the massacre in the slum.

Clang clang clang—

Jiang Ren’s flying sword had not yet adjusted its stance when it was immediately struck by the Ink Splattering Knife Technique, swaying in the air, on the verge of collapse.

Nearby, Jiang Ren was also in a bad situation; the attack on his magical treasure affected his spirit. At that moment, his spirit felt unbearably itchy, making it difficult to summon back the flying sword, yet he did not dare to withdraw his focus.

Not only that, he felt distressed, thinking it would be a certain kill, but unexpectedly faced such a counterattack.

Thinking that Master and Senior Sister must be watching him from below, his face turned even redder with shame and anger.

Bang!

A wave of spiritual power erupted from the flying sword, sending Ning Wuxie flying. He rolled on the ground but was unharmed.

However, the steel sword in his hand had gradually accumulated cracks during the process of attacking Jiang Ren’s flying sword, ultimately shattering.

This wave was a spiritual power impact released by Jiang Ren to adjust his stance; it did not cause harm but consumed a great deal of spiritual power.

Ning Wuxie smiled slightly, having achieved his goal, and Jiang Ren became anxious.
