Originally thinking he could win relying on his weapon advantage, after realizing the gap between himself and a peak Wuzong, Jun Changxiao could only activate the special effect—Martial Saint’s Soul!
That’s right.
Daring to accept the battle, this was his trump card!
When this master activated the special effect, he could slay a rare stone-type vicious beast. Now having broken through to Second-Rank Wuzong, could he not handle a single peak Wuzong?
“Whoosh whoosh!”
With Lord Guan’s blessing, Jun Changxiao slashed out with a single blade strike, immediately forming green blade light covering more than half the martial arts arena, carrying the momentum of loyalty reaching the clouds as it fiercely crashed forward.
Crack crack crack—
The sound from friction with the air gave people the feeling that space was truly being torn apart!
My heavens!
Everyone watched dumbfounded, watched with trembling hearts!
The Iron Bones Sect disciples were also stunned one by one.
The most shocked was none other than Ye Xingchen.
Looking at the imposing figure manifested behind the sect master, he said unable to control himself, “This… could this be a weapon spirit?”
Weapons with spirituality contained weapon spirits within them.
This type of weapon, similar to beast-type phantom beasts, belonged to mutated existences. They were extremely rare and mostly controlled by top-tier powerhouses!
The sect master had one.
This absolutely took Night Emperor by great surprise!
“Not good!”
Sect Master Huang’s expression drastically changed.
The attack range of the green blade light had completely sealed off all positions where he could evade—there was simply nowhere to hide!
If it was only a wide range, he’d just take it head-on!
But the power carried by this single blade made his back run cold, and he immediately realized the force must start at over 600,000 jin.
Can’t take it!
Taking it would mean death or severe injury even if he survived!
While thinking, Sect Master Huang made the correct choice, immediately retreating backward, attempting to increase the distance and let the blade energy’s force weaken before taking it head-on.
However…
Retreating to the edge of the martial arts arena, the green blade energy dragging out huge flowing light not only didn’t weaken in power but became even more formidable!
If it were someone else, they’d definitely be flustered and confused.
But Sect Master Huang was after all a peak Wuzong. In this extremely unfavorable situation, he could still remain calm in crisis and shout in a deep voice: “Mountain-Suppressing Mirror!”
“Weng!”
The space in front of him blurred, and a palm-sized mirror materialized. The mirror surface flickered with light, quickly condensing a smooth-as-mirror defensive barrier before him!
Facing this fierce incoming blade, Sect Master Huang directly sacrificed his initial-tier Superior Grade defensive treasure!
Weapons were essential items for martial artists—regardless of quality, almost everyone had one, but functional treasures were extremely rare!
“Boom!”
Quick as lightning, the green blade light carrying the Martial Saint’s Soul’s power fiercely crashed into the smooth-as-mirror defensive barrier.
Bang!
Without even lasting one breath, it directly shattered!
The Mountain-Suppressing Mirror standing in midair dimmed further, then limply fell to the ground.
With the barrier broken, the controlling Sect Master Huang’s mind was thrown into chaos. He staggered backward over ten steps, finally stepping outside the martial arts arena, unable to suppress it any longer as he opened his mouth and sprayed blood.
As for the green blade energy, after colliding with the mirror surface it was also neutralized, dissipating into the void. The entire martial arts arena was enveloped in fog-like green energy waves.
The Sacred Spring Sect fell silent!
Various forces stood with mouths agape, eyes wide, their gazes full of shock and terror.
Sect Master Huang had even activated a treasure like the Mountain-Suppressing Mirror, yet was still slashed backward, slashed until he coughed blood. This was simply too frightening!
“Gulp!”
Alliance Master Qin unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, cold sweat and chills instantly rising on his face and back.
So that’s it—that guy still had such a terrifying trump card. If he had unleashed it at Heroic Vigor Gate, even if he himself had nine lives, they wouldn’t be enough for a single slash!
Fear and terror were imprinted in Alliance Master Qin’s heart.
The image of Jun Changxiao slashing out with that blade strike would be very difficult for him and others to erase with time!
Ma Yunteng and Wang Donglin were stunned like wooden chickens.
At that moment, they finally understood why Sect Master Jun dared to accept the battle—he had such a powerful trump card!
Of course, the two of them guessed the same as Ye Xingchen.
That blade engraved with a green dragon that activated the tall and imposing phantom must be a weapon spirit!
This was much rarer than the Mountain-Suppressing Mirror!
Equipment with weapon spirits needed time and only had a one-in-ten-thousand chance of being birthed. Treasures could rely on array masters to add arrays and form them, so the two had no comparability.
“Whoosh whoosh!”
The phantom of Lord Guan behind him gradually dissipated, and the green attribute also merged into the Green Dragon Crescent Blade.
Jun Changxiao said, “Sect Master Huang, I yield!”
Forcing the Sacred Spring Sect’s sect master to retreat was done by borrowing the special effect Martial Saint’s Soul, but no matter how you looked at it, this battle was still won!
Moreover, because his own strength was powerful enough, when the special effect ended, although Sect Master Jun felt fatigue, he didn’t collapse on the ground and still stood proudly.
“Ding! Completed hidden mission [Turn Defeat Into Victory], obtained 500 contribution points.”
“Ding! Sect contribution points: 3705/2000.”
“Ding! Sect contribution points overflow, please host…”
“Ding! Congratulations host for completing hidden mission [Turn Defeat Into Victory], triggered hidden reward, obtained Supreme Quality Constitution Transformation Liquid × 1, has been delivered to spatial ring.”
Jun Changxiao smiled.
Under such disparate strength, defeating a peak Wuzong not only gained 500 contribution points but also obtained another bottle of constitution transformation liquid—of course his mood was excellent!
The Sacred Spring Sect.
Truly my blessed land!
“Sigh.”
Sect Master Huang sighed, cupped his hands and said, “Sect Master Jun is young yet strength extraordinary. This one admires you.”
Spoken admiration, inner dissatisfaction.
If they fought another match and he himself used a weapon, he could definitely defeat him.
Unfortunately, the battle outcome was already decided. It wasn’t like a twist-off cola cap that could give you a “one more bottle” chance.
“Jun shall take his leave first!”
Jun Changxiao cupped his hands, turned and left, while silently praying: “Please don’t let beating the young one bring out the old one, otherwise my body can’t withstand it!”
He was already physically and mentally exhausted. Without resting for a period of time, he definitely couldn’t recover.
If following normal fantasy story plot, suddenly a supreme grand elder popped out to challenge him, he’d definitely have to sing a song of defeat.
Overthinking.
The Sacred Spring Sect had no supreme grand elder appear.
Jun Changxiao then, under everyone’s watchful gaze, led his disciples out—however gloriously they entered, that’s how gloriously they left.
“Pop!”
The speakers turned on, music played.
“Don’t look at me as just a sheep, sheep’s cleverness is hard to imagine, sky so high yet mood equally unrestrained…”
Though this song was a bit childish, it fit the scene well, because weren’t Jun Changxiao and the others entering the Sacred Spring Sect just like a flock of sheep? In the end, didn’t they still beat up the wolves and leave with ease and grace?
Listening to that incomprehensible sound, martial artists from various forces all fell silent.
Just about two hours.
The Iron Bones Sect and Sacred Spring Sect fought seventy-four matches.
From outer disciples, inner disciples, personal disciples, elders, to the sect master—the result was total victory. This definitely created a miracle!
Without a doubt, when news spread, it would shake all directions!
They themselves were very fortunate to become witnesses to a seventh-rate sect creating a miracle!
“Oh, right.”
Walking to the main gate, Jun Changxiao paused and proclaimed loudly: “My Iron Bones Clanging Sect widely recruits outstanding heroes under heaven. Geniuses considering job-hopping can think it over.”
Everyone’s mouths twitched.
For the Iron Bones Sect’s sect master to dare so brazenly poach talent—truly arrogant enough, audacious enough!
