Chapter 381: Too Early to be Celebrating
Ling Chuxi did not say a word and only glanced at him indifferently. Her gaze made Duan Qingchou feel like he was not being taken seriously at all.
Everyone could see the disregard in Ling Chuxi’s eyes, as if what stood before her was nothing more than an ant.
Duan Qingchou was furious and lunged at Ling Chuxi with a roar. His sword gleamed silver and a strong Battle Qi swirled around it, making a whirring sound. It seemed to be even stronger than before.
Below the stage, the spectators from Wan Chuan Country shouted, and everyone else’s expressions changed. It turns out that this was the true ability of Duan Qingchou.
Ling Chuxi concentrated on the chilling gleam of Duan Qingchou’s sword. Duan Qingchou’s Battle Qi of the realm of Great Fulfilment was released through his sword, creating a spiral airflow surrounding the sword. Right after that, Battle Qi would flow out like a spring and condense into a cyclone by combining with the spiral airflow, becoming stronger and stronger.
This was the secret of Duan Qingchou’s Battle Qi. Normally, Battle Qi that pa.s.sed through a medium would disappear quickly, but this Qi spiral could obviously be sustained for much longer. Before the one in front could disappear, a new one would come from behind. Even if there was a weak point, the overlapping spirals would constantly add strength, and create an attack that far surpa.s.sed the original Battle Qi.
It seemed like the usage of Battle Qi became much more amazing after entering the realm of Great Fulfilment. No wonder Duan Qingchou’s strength alone was enough to make Wan Chuan Country the expected winner of this time’s a.s.sessment compet.i.tion.
Although a spiraling airflow of Battle Qi was not as shocking as the Turning Cloud Gesture of the Xiao family with its layers of acc.u.mulation, the control was much easier and the negative aftereffect of Battle Qi depletion after the attack would not occur either. It was hard to tell which was stronger since each technique had its own strengths.
“Go to h*ll!” Duan Qingchou shouted and swung his sword viciously. Under the endless spirals of airflow, an odd power rushed towards her from all directions. Ling Chuxi felt like she was being swept up into a chaotic whirlpool – being dragged along, squeezed, and twisted.
No wonder Baili Han’s flawless swordplay had a hard time dealing with it! The influence of the cyclones was able to produce such a strange power.
However, there was no fear on Ling Chuxi’s face at all. No matter how mysterious a martial skill was, it would definitely have a weakness; Duan Qingchou’s spiral airflow was no exception. Ling Chuxi focused her gaze and secretly formed the Turning Cloud Gesture.
Swis.h.!.+ Duan Qingchou’s sword arced through the air and slashed towards Ling Chuxi, about to cut that beautiful figure in two.
“Ah!” Exclamations of surprise could be heard from the watching platform. Those who were timid quickly covered their eyes. What was going on? She had been so calm and confident earlier, but now she had been sliced in two without even making a move? How could it be? The envoy of the Nan Xia Country paled, frozen to his spot in shock. He only had one thought running through his head: ‘Finished! Finished! This time Nan Xia Country is truly finished!’
“Hahaha, she could not even withstand a single blow.” In the fighting ring, Duan Qingchou’s hateful, arrogant laugh rang out.
“It’s too early to be celebrating.” Behind him, Ling Chuxi’s cold and disdainful voice rang out.
