Chapter 159: Chapter 116: The Curtain Falls_1

Translator: 549690339

The words were cold, heavy with weight.

Indeed, they were heavy.

If he could, Zhou Mingyu really didn’t want to step into this arena.

After all, the opponent had already proven their strength as a bona fide sword cultivator.

Determined in heart and formidable in combat!

If he went up, he might not win, and even if he could win, he might not be able to kill, and killing would come at a great cost.

It wasn’t the wise choice.

But he had no other option.

With Wang Tianling being his son-in-law, if he didn’t make an effort to fight this battle, it would be extremely difficult to bring the Wang Family under control.

Without Wang Tianling, the Wang Family was a plump piece of meat, and Zhou Mingyu really didn’t want to hand it over to someone else on a silver platter.

Not to mention, all the supreme grade magic artifacts and the storage bag had been taken by the opponent.

That was the majority of the Wang Family’s assets; how could he allow an outsider to claim them?

So…

“Come, let this old man see what you’re made of!”

In the middle of the arena, atop the platform, Zhou Mingyu’s hair and beard bristled with rage, his eyes blazing fiercely, exuding an intimidating presence.

Seeing this, the crowd was also shocked.

“This old ghost…”

“He’s become even more powerful!”

“The White Tiger Gengjin Jue is indeed extraordinary!” 𝗳r𝐞𝐞w𝐞bn𝚘ve𝚕.co𝐦

“I heard that this old fellow was also a battle cultivator who made a name for himself in combat in his younger years.”

“He’s been in the late stage of Foundation Establishment for decades, and by now, he might have achieved the Perfect Foundation Building.”

“Perfect Foundation Building? Would he even dare to leave his home?”

The crowd murmured among themselves, their eyes filled with curiosity.

Even Bai Yunzi on the Green Jade Boat showed a hint of curiosity on his face.

In the realm of Foundation Establishment, there are four stages: early, middle, late, and the Great Achievement Realm.

But cultivators who have reached the Perfect Foundation Building generally engage in arduous cultivation in hopes of achieving the Golden Core.

They rarely venture out, nor do they dare to, lest they leave the protection of their great formations.

After all, the world is full of uncertainties, with “accidents” aplenty!

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the late stage of Foundation Establishment is seen as the highest level of combat power.

Zhou Mingyu was at the late stage of Foundation Establishment several decades ago, so even if he hasn’t broken through to the Perfect Foundation Building, his strength is unfathomable, definitely the number one among all the cultivators present.

Can he take down Li Jianchen?

The crowd watched with bated breath.

Seeing this, Xu Yang wasted no further words. He immediately soared with his sword, attacking first.

This was the first time he took the initiative to attack in the three matches, and he started with unifying man and sword.

It showed the pressure that Zhou Mingyu brought.

“Hmph!”

Zhou Mingyu snorted coldly. Without resorting to a magic artifact, he confronted the fierce sword light with his bare hands.

“Bang!!!”

A clanging explosion sounded as Zhou Mingyu struck with his palm. Behind him, a White Tiger phantom appeared, its claws carrying sharp white radiance, heavily slamming down on the sword light, leaving five conspicuous marks that lingered.

That was the White Tiger Gengjin Qi!

He was a body cultivator whose foundational technique, the White Tiger Gengjin Jue, had reached the Great Achievement Realm. Just one more step, and it could be perfected, possibly to cultivate the “White Tiger Gengjin Body!”

Once achieved, even great demons that had achieved the Golden Core Transformation could be fought with his bare hands.

This showed the formidable power of this technique.

Its unique White Tiger Gengjin Qi was a weapon of slaughter, second to none among ordinary sword cultivators.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Zhou Mingyu pressed forward, hammering wildly with White Tiger Gengjin, completely overpowering by sheer force.

He didn’t rely on tricks, making it difficult for his opponent to use any as well.

After several attacks, the dazzling sword light began to dim.

Seeing this, onlookers sighed inwardly.

“What a pity, what a pity…”

“Li Jianchen has fought consecutively and expended too much!”

“Especially just now, with unifying man and sword, breaking through Wang Tianling’s Taolan Pearl, Ice Jiao Pearl, and Mysterious Turtle Shield, you can imagine how much power he exhausted. The sword artifact has lost its sharpness.”

“In such a condition, against an enraged Zhou Mingyu, one could predict his predicament!”

The crowd shook their heads in dismay, not optimistic about the outcome.

Bai Yunzi also frowned slightly, thinking about how to salvage the situation.

Just then…

“Bang!!!”

The sword emitted its sharp edge, colliding again, but was repelled by the heavy blow of the White Tiger, tumbling back in disarray.

Even the unity of man and sword was hard to maintain; the separation of body and sword caused him to stagger and fall, spilling droplets of bright red blood.

It was only after retreating more than ten paces that he was able to steady himself.

The long sword in his hand was now riddled with marks and full of cracks.

The hand holding the sword was also bloodstained, striking terror into the hearts of those who saw it.

Such was the might of the White Tiger Gengjin.

No matter how strong a magic artifact, it was still just an artifact, belonging to the first tier.

A Foundation Establishment Cultivator was of the second tier, and the White Tiger Gengjin Jue was a formidable Body Training Skill. The strength and sharpness of his body had surpassed that of a magic artifact, comparable to a lower tier defensive Spiritual Artifact and attack Spiritual Artifact.

In such a clash, how could it not be damaged?

Seeing the opponent severely wounded, Zhou Mingyu held nothing back, transforming into a White Tiger of Gengjin Qi, fiercely pouncing to kill.

Now it was a matter of life and death.

At this moment…

Xu Yang remained impassive, soaring with his sword, and again merged into one, condensing into a beam of sword light.

A bright, sun-like golden yellow sword light.

The Xuanyuan Divine Sword Jue!

The sword light surged, growing several yards in size, like a Heavenly Sword fiercely slashing down at the Gengjin White Tiger.

“Bang!!!”

In the end, a colossal bang erupted, and a dazzling brilliance stole everyone’s vision, leaving them in blinding pain only to see a vast expanse of white.

In such a fashion, time passed, until their eyes slowly recovered within their tears and their ears ceased their ringing amid the heat, regaining their vision.

Pain, distortion, haziness…

In their confusion, they saw two figures, standing opposite each other.

One with white beard and hair, full of raging presence, his right hand tightly pressed against his chest, his eyes filled with shock, anger, and disbelief.

The other, with a shattered crown and disheveled hair, whose temples were already streaked with white, were now all turned to withered color, even breaking and splitting. His once full face had also become gaunt and wrinkled, as if it had lost a tremendous amount of blood, flesh, and spirit.
