Immortal of the Nine Realms-Chapter 923: Its You!
Chapter 923: It's You!
Dongfang Haojie shuddered, a cold sweat breaking out on his forehead. "Could it be that Brother Fang Chen is trying to scare Yun Tiancheng? But he wouldn't dare.... What if the Enlightenment Realm cultivator from Zhongtian Dao Sect lashes out...."
Fairy Tianyin's expression was serious.
Qian Wenjin was from the Spirit Void Dao Sect. There was no way he could help Fang Chen fabricate such a huge lie.
Fang Chen's cultivation could very likely be true. But no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't understand how it was possible. Even if someone had been cultivating since birth, advancing to the Enlightenment Realm in just a few decades was almost impossible....
Fang Jue's pupils dilated. "The Enlightenment Realm? Brother Fang is now at the Enlightenment Realm?"
The worry in his eyes melted like spring snow, replaced by excitement.
Mu Zhaohe and the other elders from the Profound Yellow Palace were in disbelief.
"How could he possibly be in the Enlightenment Realm? This doesn't make any sense."
Several elders from the Profound Yellow Palace had an ominous feeling in their hearts. Fortunately, the Enlightenment Realm cultivator from the Zhongtian Dao Sect was present. Even if Fang Chen was truly at the Enlightenment Realm, he still wouldn't be able to do whatever he wanted.
Yun Tiancheng gulped, looking at Fang Chen. He studied Fang Chen's expression seriously. When he noticed that Fang Chen's eyes were devoid of mockery, his heart sank.
Yun Tiancheng couldn't help but glance at the Enlightenment Realm cultivator from Zhongtian Dao Sect. He hoped the man would guide him on what to do. However, he did none of that, looking lost in thought.
"Brother Yun, don't worry. I will seal ninety-nine percent of my cultivation. I wouldn't bully you by using my full strength," Fang Chen said with a smile, cupping his hands. "Please, go ahead."
With everyone watching, Yun Tiancheng couldn't back out. If he retreated now, not only would it shame the Zhongtian Dao Sect, but it would shatter his own Dao heart.
Yuan Tiancheng decisively activated his Radiant Divine Eyes. Eyes glowing with a strange blue light, he gritted his teeth. "I don't believe you are truly at the Enlightenment Realm!"
Suddenly, all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth seemed to respond to his beckoning, swirling around him and becoming incredibly lively. As long as he thought of it, boundless amounts of spiritual energy would be at his disposal.
Yun Tiancheng let out a breath.
With the Radiant Divine Eyes, coupled with his cultivation at the Foundation Building Realm, he refused to believe he would end up losing like last time. This time would be different.
"Look! The power of the Five Elements really seems to be incredibly close to Yun Tiancheng. It's so dense that it's almost visible to the naked eye!"
The crowd secretly gasped in awe.
"Yes, with such talent, he is likely unmatched in the same realm! But the question is, is Fang Chen really in the Enlightenment Realm?"
Soon, their focus shifted back to Fang Chen. He had just openly admitted to being an Enlightenment Realm cultivator. Such an existence would be invincible against someone at the Foundation Building Realm.
It was now a matter of whether Fang Chen would keep his word and truly seal ninety-nine percent of his cultivation to match Yun Tiancheng.
"Heavenly Divine Fire, obey my will. Dao technique—Burning Heaven Dao Technique!" Yun Tiancheng muttered the incantation.
Instantly, boundless, scorching flames erupted around him. These weren't just ordinary fire elements. They had been elevated to a much higher power level through his technique. Their strength had increased by more than tenfold.
A tidal wave of fire rushed toward Fang Chen.
The cultivators standing a hundred feet away had to raise their spiritual energy shields to defend against the overwhelming heat. Some cultivators who were a little slower found their eyebrows and hair scorched.
The crowd was curious and eager to see how Fang Chen would defend against this technique. But to their surprise, they saw Fang Chen open his mouth and softly blow.
The once intensely burning flames were suddenly extinguished as a cool breeze rushed past everyone. They felt as though they had been standing in the summer heat one moment, then the cold of winter in the next.
A refreshing chill overcame the cultivators present, showing expressions of comfort.
Yun Tiancheng was flabbergasted. This was the Dao technique he was most confident of! Yet Fang Chen had easily put it out by simply blowing on it!
What kind of power was this!?
Those who were initially dubious that Fang Chen was really a cultivator in the Enlightenment Realm were convinced. No one but an Enlightenment Realm cultivator could so effortlessly counter a late Foundation Building Realm cultivator's technique.
However... something gnawed at them.
"Didn't he say he would seal ninety-nine percent of his cultivation?"
"Quiet. Be careful or you'll bring trouble upon yourselves. Just watch."
The budding whispers were soon curbed, creating a heavy silence.
The Enlightenment Realm cultivator from Zhongtian Dao Sect grew increasingly serious.
Several Nascent Soul Realm cultivators nearby exchanged looks. One of them couldn't help but use sound transmission to ask Qian Wenjin what exactly had happened. After a few moments, Qian Wenjin's face turned ashen, and his gaze toward Fang Chen was filled with fear.
Just a single sword strike... had killed Lin Hao?
Lin Hao was an experienced early-stage Enlightenment Realm cultivator. He was even stronger than their own Enlightenment Realm cultivator by a fair margin.
Fang Chen smiled and said, "Daoist Yun, if you have any other techniques, feel free to use them all."
Yun Tiancheng bit his lip and muttered, "The method you just used was far beyond the Foundation Building Realm."
Fang Chen smiled and responded lightly, "Nonsense. I'm just like you. I only used the cultivation of an early-stage Foundation Building Realm cultivator just now."
Yun Tiancheng naturally didn't believe it. Seizing the opportunity, he unleashed several more techniques in quick succession. Without exception, all of them were extinguished with a single breath.
When he tried to cast another spell, he saw a strange blue light flash in Fang Chen's eyes. In the next moment, the surrounding power of the Five Elements instantly vanished without a trace. No matter how he tried, he could not channel any of that spiritual energy.
Upon closer inspection, Yun Tiancheng was horrified to realize that all the power of the Five Elements had gathered around Fang Chen, completely refusing to respond to his commands!
Yun Tiancheng's mind raced, anger and fear overtaking him. "It's you..."
Everything suddenly clicked. The person who had knocked him unconscious and stolen the Radiant Divine Eyes' secret technique was none other than Fang Chen.
Fang Chen smiled and said, "Daoist Yun, if you have any other techniques, don't hold back. I imagine you came to Purple Pole Dao Academy today full of confidence, hoping to make a name for yourself. If you can last even three or four moves under my hands, that will be enough to make your name known to the world."
Yun Tiancheng caught the sarcasm in Fang Chen's tone, and his face flushed with anger. His rage quickly drowned his rationality.
Mu Zhaohe's voice rang in Yun Tiancheng's mind. "Senior Brother, do not let your anger cloud your judgment. Do not forget our mission!"
Mu Zhaohe's words pulled Yun Tiancheng out of it a little.
However, just as he was about to calm down, he saw Fang Chen's infuriating smile once again.
"Die!" roared Yun Tiancheng, no longer caring.
His eyes flared with blue light as he sought to seize the power of the Five Elements around Fang Chen.
Yun Tiancheng believed that even if Fang Chen had cultivated the Radiant Divine Eye, he couldn't have studied as thoroughly as himself. He was confident he could overwhelm Fang Chen with his understanding!
As the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged toward him, Yun Tiancheng couldn't help but laugh maniacally.
The crowd saw this strange phenomenon, and their expressions turned serious.
Then, the power of the Five Elements began to wildly gather, forming a multi-colored mound that was several feet high. With a loud crash, it slammed down on Yun Tiancheng.
When the dust cleared, everyone was stunned to find that Yun Tiancheng had been buried under the mound, save for his head.
He had been completely crushed.
Yun Tiancheng's eyes were filled with confusion. Why had the spiritual energy he summoned ended up suppressing him instead?
