The Strongest Mythical Emperor-Chapter 71 - Profound Grade Magic
71: Chapter 71: Profound Grade Magic
71 -71: Profound Grade Magic
Ever since she was born, Nan Yuxin had never heard of anyone advancing from the second level of the energy refining realm to the Foundation Establishment within a month.
Even though Nan Meng often told her about the world beyond their land, she had never heard of such a miracle.
Although last time she was outmatched by Qin Jun, they had not actually exchanged blows, so in her heart, Qin Jun was far from comparable to a genius like Zhuo Junjie.
Qin Jun naturally sensed the provocation in Nan Yuxin’s eyes, but he just smiled slightly and did not bother to explain.
I’ll smack that look off his face with my actions soon enough!
Qin Jun sneered to himself, feeling as though the spear in his storage ring was already trembling in anticipation—cough cough, that sounded a bit odd!
Match after match continued, and before long, someone brought up the name of Lu Xuanfeng.
Unconcerned, Lu Xuanfeng walked up to his opponent with a smile.
After they exchanged a rather perfunctory fist-and-palm salute, they began to attack each other.
Holding his Feather Fan, Lu Xuanfeng created gusts of wind with a flick, sending ferocious blue wind blades at his opponent, incredibly sharp and forcing the other to fend them off with a sword in panic.
Unfortunately, the opponent still ended up with cuts and splatters of blood, though fortunately, none hit any vital points.
Watching, Qin Jun couldn’t help but nod, Lu Xuanfeng’s composure in battle was truly remarkable, worthy of one of the twin stars of Qian Moon.
He couldn’t help but think of Zhuo Junjie.
If it wasn’t for the Flower Blooms in an Instant technique catching him off guard, Qin Jun probably wouldn’t have been able to land a single hit on him.
As he pondered, he glanced toward Zhuo Junjie, only to find the man was already staring at him with a gaze that made Qin Jun feel a chill, as though they were comrades-in-arms.
“Oh my, could this guy have fallen for me out of jealousy for my handsomeness?”
Qin Jun narcissistically thought.
In reality, he knew that Zhuo Junjie would definitely challenge him tonight, and he was not only unafraid but actually looking forward to it.
He had tirelessly practiced his spear techniques just to overcome any opponent by himself!
Although he knew he was still somewhat behind Zhuo Junjie, with a profound grade top-tier Silver Dragon Slaying Soul Spear in his grip, he refused to believe he would be utterly defeated.
If all else fails, he would resort to overwhelming force!
The Innate Breathing technique taught to him by the Roaring Sky Dog had immensely boosted his strength, and it was the main reason for his high confidence.
While Qin Jun was looking forward to it, Lu Xuanfeng had already defeated his opponent.
He shook his Feather Fan lightly and said with a smile, “Zhuo Junjie, come on up, let’s show everyone who’s stronger!”
At these words, the cultivators around them became excited.
“The Twin Stars of Qian Moon are going to clash again!”
“I feel like Zhuo Junjie will win; after all, he is the only genius on the Human List!”
“Lu Xuanfeng seems so confident, maybe he can really win!”
“Years ago, Lu Xuanfeng was defeated by Zhuo Junjie, but Zhuo Junjie was injured too, showing that the gap between them isn’t that wide.”
“This is the real highlight of the evening!”
Qin Jun also began to sit up straight, extremely interested in the confrontation between Lu Xuanfeng and Zhuo Junjie.
Chang Qianqian and Nan Yuxin stopped bickering; both women watched Zhuo Junjie and Lu Xuanfeng intently.
As for Daji, she showed no interest in their fight and kept eating pastries to her heart’s content, as if her stomach was a bottomless pit.
Zhuo Junjie stood up and walked to Lu Xuanfeng, speaking indifferently, “Tonight, I will let you understand our gap once again!”
As he spoke, he lifted the long sword at his waist.
Without unsheathing it, his aura was already evident, making everyone hold their breath in anticipation.
“There’s a hint of Sword Energy gathering…”
Old Zhang stroked his beard and exclaimed in admiration.
After being reminded by the Roaring Sky Dog that afternoon, Qin Jun had come to know that this seemingly ordinary old man actually had the cultivation of the first layer of the Golden Elixir Realm.
Lu Xuanfeng’s smile stiffened.
Instantly, he waved his fan, and wind blades flew out swiftly, aiming to chop Zhuo Junjie into pieces.
Chime—
The sword unsheathing sounded piercingly in everyone’s ears.
All they saw was a flash of sword light dazzling their vision.
When they opened their eyes again, all of Lu Xuanfeng’s wind blades had been slashed down by him.
Zhuo Junjie lifted his long sword, the moonlight reflected off the blade, extremely dazzling, the sword pointed at Lu Xuanfeng’s throat.
The two were less than three meters apart, Zhuo Junjie needed only one step to take Lu Xuanfeng’s life.
The gap readily determined the superior and the inferior.
Lu Xuanfeng’s face turned ugly, his figure suddenly twisted, turning his back to Zhuo Junjie as he collapsed, his feet stomping rapidly on the ground, the Feather Fan slicing towards Zhuo Junjie like a knife.
The process was described very slowly, but in reality, it was as fast as a startled swan.
Zhuo Junjie’s reaction was not slow either, reflexively using his long sword to block, and with a clang, the long sword and Feather Fan collided, forcing Zhuo Junjie to stumble three steps backward.
“What agility!”
Zhuo Junjie murmured in admiration, flicking his right hand, his long sword creating a burst of sword flowers, attacking Lu Xuanfeng.
This strike was so fast that it dazzled the eyes, unstoppable!
Lu Xuanfeng’s pupils shrank, unable to counterattack in time, he could only retreat backwards.
Qin Jun blinked, Zhuo Junjie’s swordplay was so fast his eyes could hardly keep up, especially the aura that Zhuo Junjie exuded, which involuntarily startled him.
In that instant, Zhuo Junjie transformed from a meek sheep into a ferocious tiger.
Whoosh!
Just as Zhuo Junjie’s long sword was about to reach Lu Xuanfeng, he suddenly flicked his sword, and the blade bent, coiling around Lu Xuanfeng’s Feather Fan like a snake, and with a pull, Lu Xuanfeng’s Feather Fan was sent flying.
Having lost his Feather Fan, Lu Xuanfeng’s face showed a look of panic, but his palms swiftly pushed forward, the blue spiritual power formed into two eagles that crashed towards Zhuo Junjie, their talons sharp enough to shatter stone.
“The Purple Light Sect’s Eagle Claw Strike!
Said to be a profound grade lower-level technique, its power is boundless!”
An expert cultivator exclaimed, causing an uproar among the crowd.
Profound grade techniques were considered treasures to ordinary cultivators, and in an instant, hundreds of eager eyes fell upon Lu Xuanfeng.
Faced with a profound grade technique, Zhuo Junjie dared not be careless.
He retracted his long sword, danced it above his head, then fiercely slashed forward, white Sword Energy surged forth, instantly shredding the two blue eagles to pieces.
Now, Lu Xuanfeng’s complexion turned even uglier.
The difference between the two was evident to all, Lu Xuanfeng indeed was no match for Zhuo Junjie!
Qin Jun also truly recognized Zhuo Junjie’s strength.
Although far from comparable to the likes of Guan Yu, within the Foundation Establishment realm, he was certainly impressive.
“See that?
That is the strength of the number one talent!”
Nan Yuxin glanced at Qin Jun and said, although she felt indifferent towards Zhuo Junjie, she wanted to needle Qin Jun a bit.
At this point, Chang Qianqian also didn’t blindly support Qin Jun, after all, Zhuo Junjie was her senior brother.
Qin Jun curled his lips, thinking, ‘Stubborn woman, you obviously like me, yet you tease me.
Careful, or I might not marry you in the future!’
But deep down, he was still amazed by Zhuo Junjie’s strength.
Furthermore, he could tell that Zhuo Junjie hadn’t used his full force, the entire posture seeming relaxed and effortless.
In contrast, Lu Xuanfeng was always on the defensive.
“You’re no match for me!”
Zhuo Junjie pointed his sword at Lu Xuanfeng, his voice detached, as if he’d defeated a nameless pawn, his aloofness even made Qin Jun involuntarily give a thumbs up.
Lu Xuanfeng trembled with anger but did not lash out in a fit of rage, understanding that if the fight continued, he would still be the one embarrassed.
After calming his emotions for a moment, he then forced a smile and said, “Next time, I will definitely defeat you!”
Having said that, he stepped down.
Zhuo Junjie’s mouth curved up, standing proudly in the arena, unchallenged, just as he was about to look at Qin Jun, Qin Jun preemptively spoke up, “This young hero has impressive skills, would you dare to have a match with this prince!”
