Puff! Puff! Puff! Like many meteors, this strike tore the sky as it flew over, and many metal-colliding noises that sounded like they were from a warzone resonated on the two sides of the blade.

Qian Jin's forehand only lightly held the saber, and his backhand tightly locked onto it.

It felt like in this world, Qian Jin was the ruler of all things.

Everything that Qian Jin had was attached to this saber, and he became one with his weapon. The tsunami-like presence seemed like it was about to extinguish everything before him.

If Linguan Skylan's spear strike was a surging river, then Qian Jin's saber strike was the milky way.

If Linguan Skylan's spear strike was a waterfall that rushed down the mountain, then Qian Jin's saber strike was a river of stars that fell from the universe.

Compared to combat involving fists, battle involving weapons were usually used to determine life and death instead of win and lose. Without holding back, Qian Jin struck forward with his zhanmadao, and his speed was somehow even faster than that of Linguan Skylan.

Destruction Soul Realm! At that moment, a red light suddenly shined on Qian Jin's saber, and his strike's power increased over ten times. Although he moved later, Qian Jin's attack arrived before Linguan Skylan's spear.

At that moment, Linguan Skylan tilted his head. His neck and shoulder only felt the wind created by the strike, yet burning pain overloaded his senses as if his head had been chopped off.

In the critical moment, Linguan Skylan's spear changed direction and dashed upward, hitting onto the saber that was about to cut the sky open.

Tink!

The metal-clashing noise resonated in the sky, and many brilliant sparks appeared. This scene was more magnificent compared to the celebratory fireworks of any empire.

The vicious, murderous spirits intertwined with each other, and the viewers sweated profusely; their backs were all covered in cold sweat.

Linguan Skylan's spear was like a thick python. It suddenly bent and looked like a crescent moon, and his surging presence was directly interrupted. This man's toes couldn't grasp onto the ground, and his feet dragged out two trails on the land as he flew backward while blood shot out of his hands.

Crack! Fortunately for Linguan Skylan, it wasn't his bone that was broken; it was his warrior weapon. If they didn't battle using warrior weapons which could cancel out a lot of power and had used fists instead, it would be fortunate for Linguan Skylan if only his bones broke.

Three warrior souls! Although Qian Jin recently condensed his warrior souls, their quality wasn't inferior compared to Linguan Skylan's warrior soul.

Besides, Qian Jin's UltrFake Soul increased his power to another level, and even a half saint warrior wouldn't want to fight with him directly when he used this unnamed star fighting technique and the Destruction Soul Realm.

Linguan Skylan could never imagine that even though it seemed like Qian Jin used everything he had when he battled Linguan Linfeng, he still had many more trump cards.

One strike! With only one attack, Linguan Skylan was injured, and his arms were in pain and felt sore. It seemed like many ants were eating his flesh, and only he could hear that a few of his bones broke.

Then, a streak of power suddenly shined under Linguan Skylan's skin, creating a bloodflower in the air.

Latent Thunder! It was the technique that was meant to kill and not to be used in practice battles.

Qian Jin would never go soft on others who tried to kill him. Any kindness toward his enemies was cruelty to himself. Since Linguan Skylan wanted to kill him, Qian Jin wasn't going to let the Thunder Lion King leave here alive. Once the murderous spirits were involved, only one party could leave here alive.

“Damn it! Latent Thunder! I should have killed him when he was in the academy last time!” Linguan Skylan was shocked as he thought to himself. He wanted to find where Latent Thunder was hiding in his body, but he suddenly sensed a chill. A violent aura seemed to have filled the sky and rushed down at him like a giant tsunami.

Second strike! Qian Jin's second saber strike appeared before Linguan Skylan in silence.

Linguan Skylan's skin suddenly tensed up like his heart. The friction between the saber and the air created a streak of heat energy and the bloody, rusty smell of iron mixed into it. It formed a deadly sensation that only the dead beings were familiar with.

Ever since he entered the Punitive Expedition Academy, Linguan Skylan had never been defeated, and no one forced him to use his full strength in both armed and unarmed combat. Therefore, he hadn't felt the deadly sensation in a long time.

However, this saber strike coming from Qian Jin made him remember those shocking and terrifying scenes that happened around him and the intense, deadly sensation when he was on the Human-Demon Battlefront.

The familiar deadly sensation didn't scare Linguan Skylan. Instead, it truly ignited the excitement that was deep in his heart; he hadn't felt this way in a long time.

“Path toward the Saint Warrior Realm! The gate before saint warrior! Open!”

At that moment, the warrior power that was cycling in Linguan Skylan's body at high-speed changed, and his warrior soul started to fluctuate like the surface of a lake during a windy day. Waves of warrior power radiating from his body.

Half Saint! Without the awakening of bloodline power, Linguan Skylan used the thick foundation that he accumulated through diligent cultivation to forcefully open the gate toward the Saint Warrior Realm. He now had one of his feet inside the Saint Warrior Realm; he was now a half saint warrior.

Linguan Skylan didn't have a soul realm, but his warrior power increased in quality. Now, his fighting techniques were going to be even more powerful.

Lightning bolts that were about the thickness of a pinky finger appeared around Linguan Skylan.

Linguan Skylan was called the Thunder Lion King because a thunderbolt struck him when he was a child, but it didn't kill him. From that moment on, his warrior power contained lightning energy. After he condensed his warrior soul, the lightning energy that he controlled increased drastically.

Some people even guessed that the Thunder Lion King would have a Thunder-Lightning Soul Realm later.

This unique feature about Linguan Skylan allowed him to have the advantage over his opponents. The powerful lightning currents could numb his opponents' bodies, affect their judgment, and make him stronger in battle.

At this moment, the Thunder Lion King, who was a half saint, vaguely felt that his soul realm seemed to be a seed right now, and it contained countless thunderbolts. This seed was slowly jumping in his forehead, quickly forming the Thunder-Lightning Soul Realm which was in its infancy.

“After some time, I can use this Thunder-Lightning Soul Realm to stimulate my bloodline power and move into the Saint Warrior Realm.

Linguan Skylan took out a thick war saber from his warrior dimension, and he swung it upward at this critical time to block Qian Jin's strike. Countless blue lightning currents empowered this saber, making it seem like it was a saber create by pure lightning energy.

“Another warrior weapon?” the viewers looked at Linguan Skylan in envy and thought, “He is the No.1 Master of the Golden Griffin King Bloodline Family after all. He is far richer compared to other warriors. How long has it been? He took out the second warrior weapon!”

“The second warrior weapon?” Qian Jin thought to himself as his backhand that tightly grasped the saber pressed down, emitting the intense smell of blood.

Linguan Skylan put away his slight for Qian Jin, but he didn't restrain his dominating presence. Seeing that sharp saber energy, he felt an excruciating pain in his head as if the saber were cutting into him.

This was only an illusion. It was only because the power of Qian Jin's saber strike was too strong. The pressure coming from this strike alone made Linguan Skylan feel that way.

However, Linguan Skylan couldn't ignore this illusion that made him feel like his head was getting chopped open. If he didn't deal with this strike properly, the curve that Qian Jin's zhanmadao drew in the sky wouldn't only cut open his skull; it would cut his body into two halves.

Facing Qian Jin's ferociousness, the pride of a bloodline warrior was stimulated in the Thunder Lion King's mind. He had been accumulating strength for many years; his original plan was to use the momentum of his accumulation and bloodline power awakening to break into the Saint Warrior Realm, bypassing the step of half saint. However, under this insane pressure, Linguan Skylan had to use his accumulated strength.

Linguan Skylan roared in anger, and powerful soundwaves that were visible to the naked eye shot out. The soundwaves and airflow that he spat out seemed to contain vague lightning energy, and they dashed toward Qian Jin like the steam from a boiling pot of water.

Although Linguan Skylan was using a big saber, it suddenly seemed to have transformed into a giant shield under his violent shaking. It was the Griffin King Bloodline Technique – [Inaction Like the Mountain].

Mountains connecting from left and right, and they couldn't be moved like a mountain range!

However, 'these mountains' that were created by Linguan Skylan's arms weren't that indestructible as the description of the technique. As soon as Qian Zhan's zhanmadao got close, they instantly collapsed. As if smaller mountains beside the main mountain collapsed, they took away some of the momentum and presence from this meteor-like strike.

Qian Jin's saber made Linguan Skylan's arm drop by three inches, and the Thunder Lion King's face was filled with bulging green veins and lightning energy.

The power of a half saint was unleashed, and blue light flashed around him. Like a golden griffin king who was in control of lightning energy, all his hair stood on end, just like when Qian Zhanxuan used his destructive finger strike that day.

Linguan Skylan's thick saber collided with Qian Jin's zhanmadao. Although this second warrior weapon was now also full of cracks, it barely blocked Qian Jin's strike.

Then, the blue lightning energy flowed into Qian Jin's arms and body through the zhanmadao.

Linguan Skylan pulled away as soon as he touched his opponent, and that reduced Qian Jin's presence by about 30 percent. This delicate technique that Linguan Skylan used contained all the experience that he accumulated on the Human-Demon Battlefront; even Pam Honzi praised in silent, “Beautiful!”

As soon as his saber blocked Qian Jin's strike, Linguan Skylan's pupils contracted as he raised his eyebrows. While he ground his teeth, his warrior power cycled in his body fiercely. Then, he opened his mouth, and a unique roar that only belonged to griffins resonated in the area; it was much more powerful compared to the Roaring Lion King's shout.

The people who were watching the battle from afar couldn't handle the destructive power in this roar, and they puked up mouthfuls of blood. Qian Jin, who was the closest to Linguan Skylan, felt most of the damage.

While roaring, Linguan Skylan took a step forward; this was the first time that he stepped forward in this battle. Like a streak of lightning, his hand struck down with a ton of lightning energy around it, looking like the hammer of the God of Lightning.

New Domination Fist! This was the unique fighting technique that Linguan Skylan created after he combined his unique abilities, the fighting techniques of the Golden Griffin King Bloodline Family, and the descriptions of Qian Zhanxuan's Domination Fist that he heard from his seniors and elders.
