Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation

Chapter 1687 (Raw 1699): Heaven-Shaking Fury

The Thunder Flame Plaza had a total of one hundred eight ancient stone pillars. Each stone pillar had a thunder flame that burned all year round.

The stone pillars were both decorations and a part of the Lightning Guiding Formation.

Xiao Chen and the Little Thunder Saber Feng Yu each stood on a stone pillar. Both of them were exceptional cultivators of the Thunder Dao.

Not only did the thunder flame not hurt the two, but it even benefited them. During normal times, they could just sit there and cultivate.

The Little Thunder Saber Feng Yu looked at the nearby Xiao Chen, and his heart sped up slightly.

There was a deeper meaning to Feng Yu’s senior brother arranging for this duel.

One had to climb back up from where they fell. Only by defeating Xiao Chen could Feng Yu truly get rid of his mental block.

Feng Yu’s senior brother had put in a lot of effort for the sake of this duel. Shangguan Lei had not only asked their master for Medicinal Pills to push his cultivation to peak Minor Primal Core Realm but also exchanged moves with Xiao Chen to injure him and drain Xiao Chen’s energy before this duel.

Most importantly was the saber in Feng Yu’s hand!

I need to win. There is no retreat from this duel for me. Thinking of the various consequences of losing this duel, Feng Yu slowly calmed down.

In contrast, while Xiao Chen appeared calm, the thunder flame around him flickered, obscuring his expression somewhat.

Shangguan Lei’s calm gaze gave his junior brother great hope.

Xiao Chen stood casually on the stone pillar, in no rush to come out.

He did not feel any psychological pressure in the first place, even though he had sustained slight injuries earlier and expended a significant amount of lightning-attributed energy.

On the other hand, Feng Yu had been watching Xiao Chen and raising his aura at the same time.

As Feng Yu’s aura grew stronger, the thunder flame under his feet intensified. After fifteen minutes, it had risen into a fierce thirty-meter-tall thunder flame.

A strong intent to fight swelled in Feng Yu’s heart. The ground trembled slightly, and everyone felt his desire and desperation for victory.

One peak Minor Primal Core cultivator against a half-step Primal Core cultivator. Originally, victory should have been clear with one glance.

However, due to Xiao Chen’s exchange with Shangguan Lei, everyone already had an inkling of Xiao Chen’s strength and knew that he should not be underestimated.

Hence, no one could predict who would win.

A person who could defeat Shangguan Lei in the Thunder Dao should definitely not be underestimated.

I’m not waiting anymore!

From start to end, Feng Yu could not find any openings in Xiao Chen. He felt that the other party was like a pool of still water, not experiencing any changes for even a thousand years.

Feng Yu lost his patience and leaped out of the fierce thunder flame.

His figure shot out like a lightning bolt before the eyes of the many true inheritors. They could not even clearly see him.

“Whoosh!”

Feng Yu arrived in the blink of an eye, and he drew his saber in the time it took for a spark to fly.

Then, the might of the Thunder Great Dao spread out from Feng Yu’s body, shocking everyone in the vicinity.

Several people revealed startled expressions. It’s actually a Dao Tool.

Wait, no. It’s a false Dao Tool, which doesn’t truly count as a Dao Tool.

Why was it called a false Dao Tool? Naturally, a Dao Tool contained at least one complete Great Dao.

This allowed the master of the Dao Tool to grasp Great Dao Energy in advance. If the Dao Tool contained the Thunder Dao, the wielder of the Dao Tool would be able to bring out the Great Dao Energy of the Thunder Dao, grasping Dao Might.

Aside from the harsh requirements on the materials, forging a Dao Tool required a person who already obtained the Dao to nourish it for a long time.

This was a time-consuming process, and if one slacked off for a little, all the progress would be lost.

The saber in Feng Yu’s hand was not a true Dao Tool. The Dao within it was not complete. The true inheritors present were all outstanding talents of their sect. With one glance, they could see that.

However, even so, this saber had been nourished for at least one hundred years. Although the Thunder Dao contained within it was incomplete, it complemented Feng Yu’s Cultivation Technique.

Furthermore, with Feng Yu’s cultivation, even if he had a true Dao Tool, he might not be able to grasp it. However, he could control such a false Dao Tool, perfectly grasping it and using it as he pleased.

“Xiao Chen is going to lose!”

The moment this saber appeared, several people came to that conclusion. They shook their heads slightly, feeling that it was a pity.

Even Xiao Chen evinced surprise on his face. This was the first time he saw a Dao Tool.

Unexpectedly, a Dao Tool was so miraculous.

Upon seeing Xiao Chen’s surprised expression, Feng Yu revealed a nasty grin as he used his speedy charge to create a huge momentum.

Then, he swung the saber down at Xiao Chen from overhead.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Before the saber landed, its formidable power cracked the stone pillar under Xiao Chen. Several pieces of rock fell off.

This saber strike was as heavy as a mountain. Not only was the stone pillar somewhat unable to bear it, but the air also became incredibly compressed, making breathing difficult.

The instant the Lunar Shadow Saber came out, Xiao Chen did not hesitate to swing it.

Xiao Chen’s saber strike arrived first despite being launched later. The saber flickered with an autumn-water-like light. Although the light was not bright, it was very glistening and eye-catching.

Xiao Chen did this to block Feng Yu’s overhead chop. Even so, he did not dare to underestimate Feng Yu and used his full power.

A Taiji diagram made up of Xiao Chen’s Yang Essence Energy, Yin Essence Energy, and Veritable Essence Energy slowly spun in his dantian. Fleeting lights appeared in the surroundings, and an even larger Taiji diagram manifested.

“Dang!”

The two sabers clashed with a loud clangor that shook everyone’s eardrums; it was even crisper and more resonant than thunder.

Feng Yu took a step back in shock, his hand going numb and his internal organs shaken. His Qi and blood surged, causing him to vomit a mouthful of blood.

Xiao Chen was not in a good condition, either. After all, the other party possessed a higher cultivation and grasped the Dao Might of the Thunder Dao. Furthermore, Xiao Chen had not used the Saber Dao’s Great Dao Energy.

Xiao Chen had put in his full power to block this saber strike and still found it exhausting.

“Crack!”

Suddenly, there was a cracking sound. Xiao Chen’s Lunar Shadow Saber snapped into two. The earlier strike already surpassed the limits of its endurance.

Then, Xiao Chen immediately vomited a mouthful of blood, and his complexion paled.

When the sword was present, the person was as well. When the sword broke, the person died!

When the saber was present, the person was as well. When the saber broke, the person died!

Swordsmen and bladesmen could stand out from other cultivators and have their own classification because their affection for their weapons surpassed that of other cultivators.

Although the description of a person dying when their sword or saber broke was exaggerated, it was not far from the truth, either.

The heart of a swordsman or a bladesman was connected to their weapon. When the weapon broke, its wielder would have difficulty avoiding severe injury.

Upon seeing this scene, the Purple Flame Sect’s group, Hua Yunfeng and the other five, immediately paled and stepped forward.

However, the moment the Purple Flame Sect disciples did so, a strong wind containing a tyrannical killing Qi surged over.

Shangguan Lei revealed a cold smile and looked at them without saying anything. The wordless threat in his gaze was clear.

“Hahahaha! Before my Dao Tool, a Medial Grade Treasure Tool is indeed not even worth a strike. Xiao Chen, it looks like today is destined to be your death anniversary!”

Feng Yu, who originally thought that Xiao Chen would be somewhat tricky to handle, laughed out loudly, feeling that heaven was helping him.

When Feng Yu spoke, he used his overwhelming momentum to charge over again ferociously.

He did not give Xiao Chen a chance to catch his breath at all. He wanted to kill Xiao Chen while Xiao Chen was down.

“Buzz!”

Suddenly, the bottom half of the Lunar Shadow Saber trembled continuously. A cold light flashed in Xiao Chen’s eyes as the might of the Great Dao that he had been holding in check all this time burst out. A Dao disk behind him quickly condensed into a point before elongating to three meters long.

Xiao Chen unleashed his Great Dao Might at its peak in an instant.

In a breath, the complete Dao Might smashed apart the Thunder Dao’s Dao Might that Feng Yu forcibly brought out. That overwhelming aura immediately disappeared.

The bottom half of the Lunar Shadow Saber chopped down with the Saber Dao’s Dao Might.

A tremendous force surged over, and Feng Yu’s false Dao Tool flew off somewhere from out of his hand.

“Whoosh!”

Xiao Chen’s left hand had grasped the top half of the Lunar Shadow Saber at some point. Blood gathered at the tip of the saber’s blade as he ferociously thrust it forward.

The top half of the saber stabbed into Feng Yu’s chest at nearly the instant the false Dao Tool left his hand. Then, Xiao Chen slammed down a palm strike.

Holding the bottom half of the saber, Xiao Chen leaped into the air. When he landed, he stomped on Feng Yu’s chest.

Xiao Chen had shown his opponent a moment of weakness, so that his opponent would drop his guard. Then, he made a lightning-quick strike to end the battle.

He ended this originally fierce battle in the time it took for a spark to fly, with one move.

It was so fast that before several people reacted, Xiao Chen already trampled Feng Yu, rendering him unable to get up.

Seeing Feng Yu’s dissatisfied gaze, Xiao Chen said indifferently, “I’ve already said that you wouldn’t understand. So what if you changed your weapon before the battle? Even if it had been a true Dao Tool, you would not have been able to continue holding on to it, either!”

“Xiao Chen, you are seeking death!” Shangguan Lei roared furiously all of a sudden.

Wind and lightning surged out, together with rolling thunder and boundless tornadoes, as he charged over.

“Shut up!”

Enraged, Xiao Chen ferociously turned his head back, now disinclined to suppress the Ten Thousand Tribulation Divine Lightning in his sea of consciousness, and there was a loud surging howl.

That ferocious tribulation lightning in the sky sent out a thick lightning bolt on Xiao Chen. The one hundred eight ancient stone pillars in the Thunder Flame Plaza suddenly crumbled.

Chaos immediately reigned throughout Thunder Controlling Peak. Electric light streaked about wildly, startling countless major characters of the Divine Firmament Sect.

The core tribulation lightning that the Thunder Controlling Peak’s existence relied on rampaged out of control and started to leak continuously.

Within the thick bolt of tribulation lightning, Xiao Chen’s expression turned exceptionally terrifying. At this moment, Shangguan Lei’s strong aura seemed laughable before him.

Shangguan Lei’s aura was like a river facing a large sea, equally insignificant. Frightened stiff, Shangguan Lei froze in place.

Three purple flowers in Xiao Chen’s right eye spun quickly, locking on Shangguan Lei. Shangguan Lei’s entire body trembled as a sense of imminent death enveloped him.

In this situation, the Ten Thousand Tribulation Divine Lightning could no longer be restrained. Even Xiao Chen feared the consequences of executing the Divine Lightning Eye.

Where would this Shangguan Lei get the courage to take another half step forward?

“Shangguan Lei, I came here today not because I did something wrong or to apologize to you, much less because I, Xiao Chen, fear you. I only want to tell you one thing: don’t think that I, Xiao Chen, am an easy target that you can bully at any time. If you anger me, I will just kill off both you and your junior brother!”
