Chapter 485: Chapter 227: Turning the Tide, Ten Thousand Thankful Bows!

Seeing this, Ao Langtian immediately began to transmit his voice towards Ao Xuan.

"Xuan’er, Chu Ning has just come out of seclusion; he probably wasn’t prepared for this match.

If my guess is correct, he might have just broken through to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

No need to hold back in the match later..."

Ao Langtian didn’t continue, but Ao Xuan naturally understood the meaning behind his father’s words.

Even if he can’t take his life, he must make Chu Ning pay a price.

Ao Xuan gently nodded, his gaze becoming steady and much colder.

He was somewhat intrigued.

Both being Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivators, Chu Ning’s alchemy and artifact refining skills were superior.

This was something Ao Xuan could not allow.

Even if Ao Langtian hadn’t urged it, Ao Xuan would still have gone all out in today’s match.

Feeling the cold glint in Ao Xuan’s eyes, Chu Ning sneered coldly in his heart.

He flew up first, heading to the middle of the arena.

"Go Master Chu!!"

"Defeat him!!"

"Jiuhua Sect will win!!"

At this moment, the disciples of Jiuhua Sect also started cheering fervently.

Hearing such cheers, Ao Xuan’s eyes flickered coldly, and he too flew up, landing right across from Chu Ning.

He looked up at Chu Ning, his gaze becoming noticeably calmer.

"I admit, you indeed surprised me. Jiuhua Sect actually found someone in you with such outstanding talent in alchemy and artifact refining.

However, in the path of cultivation immortality, strength is what counts in the end.

I also want to see what divine techniques you possess!"

Before the Elder Peng could announce the start of the match, Ao Xuan waved his hand and a Red Flame Longsword appeared.

The next moment, an incredibly sharp sword aura directly attacked Chu Ning.

"Shameless!"

"Sneak attack!"

Seeing this, the disciples of Jiuhua Sect shouted out loud.

The white-haired Elder Peng frowned slightly, somewhat displeased, and was about to intervene.

But at this moment, Chu Ning raised his hand, and a tiger-shaped flame flew out.

In mid-air, it opened its mouth wide, directly swallowing the sword aura.

Seeing the two spells about to collide and explode in the air,

Chu Ning waved his hand again.

A Formless Wind Technique was cast, landing right behind the tiger demon.

Wind and fire scorched earth, wind fueling the fire!

The next moment, the demon tiger suddenly grew bigger!

The demon tiger, which initially seemed to be dispersing, instead solidified and pounced fiercely at Ao Xuan.

Seeing this, Ao Xuan’s expression changed, and he flicked the Red Flame Longsword, sending several sword auras towards the tiger demon in the air.

However, over the past six years, Chu Ning had long mastered the fusion of Wind and Fire Burning Technique with the Blazing Fire Flaming Technique.

The tiger demon kept opening its mouth to devour, swallowing each sword aura, making its pounce even fiercer.

In the blink of an eye, it was already in front of Ao Xuan, who it pounced on heavily.

Seeing this, Ao Xuan immediately activated a protective shield from his magical artifact.

The fire tiger pounced on the white defense shield, and in the next moment, both the fire tiger and the white shield disintegrated simultaneously.

Meanwhile, Chu Ning revealed a long spear in his hand.

As the long spear waved, a flaming giant beast, larger than the previous fire tiger, appeared.

"Red Flame Beast?"

Seeing the flame demon beast that Chu Ning attacked with, many cultivators exclaimed.

This beast was native to the Cloud Peak Mountain Range, typically a Tier Four or even Tier Five demon beast known as the Red Flame Beast.

At this moment, it flew out of Chu Ning’s long spear, its massive body burning fiercely, even its pupils flashing vivid red.

This was the fourth demon beast form he cultivated with the Blazing Fire Flaming Technique after the Red-eyed Demon Tiger — the Red Flame Beast!

Just after barely holding off the tiger demon, Ao Xuan saw the Red Flame Fire Beast charging at him, his eyes sharpened.

The next moment, he took out a White Feather Fan, waving, releasing waves of cold air.

A small ice wall quickly formed, sweeping the Red Flame Fire Beast away.

This fan was indeed a rare ice attribute magical artifact.

Subsequently, Ao Xuan again waved the Red Flame Longsword. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

This time, it sent out not sword auras,

but extremely fine flame-formed needle auras.

Seeing this, Chu Ning once again conjured a Red Flame Beast to meet it.

However, to Chu Ning’s surprise, the piercing power of these red needle auras was extremely strong.

The Spirit Flame Beast couldn’t stop them at all, and over ten red needle auras were within thirty feet of Chu Ning.

At this moment, Chu Ning used talismans to continuously cast several defense shields.

As four layers of talisman shields shattered, the red needle auras were finally stopped.

"The attack power of these needle auras is indeed significant, but to use a long sword to emit them, it might be some kind of spell."

Chu Ning muttered in his heart, yet he continued without pause.

He still had many good things in hand, with numerous methods and treasures to use.

However, in front of so many people, he didn’t want to expose items like the Reincarnation Ancient Disc or the Ice Shadow Sword Talisman.

Of course, for Chu Ning, defeating Ao Xuan didn’t require such items.

His body flickered a few times, directly flying towards Ao Xuan.

Simultaneously, the flames flickered on the long spear as a Red Flame Beast was once again conjured!
