Chapter 57 – Lost?

Under Xiao Yun’s guidance, a powerful wave of Essence Qi like a dragon and a snake collided with Fang Hao’s Chilling Dark Hand seal.

At this moment, the entire arena fell silent, and almost everyone was holding their breath.

Although they were quite far away, the might and Chilling Qi from Fang Hao’s magic seal caused even those at the complete stage of the Innate realm to feel fear. None of them would dare to receive it directly, and could only choose to dodge it. And yet, Xiao Yun had chosen to forcefully fight back against it. Everyone thought that this was crazy to the point of being suicidal.

“Haha, you’re seeking your own death!” Seeing this, Fang Hao savagely laughed.

He knew how powerful and profound his attack was – through the divine art, the Chilling Qi had become Dark Chilling Qi. Once it came into contact with Xiao Yun, it would enter his bones and would not be able to be dispelled. Even a cultivator at the complete stage of the Innate realm would fear such an attack, and if Fang Hao stepped into the complete stage of the Innate realm, even an ordinary True Essence realm cultivator would be shaken. Despite this, Xiao Yun, a cultivator at the middle stage of the Innate realm, had dared to receive his attack.

Wasn’t this just seeking death? Everyone believed that Xiao Yun was dead without a doubt.

This time, Xiao Yun had only used an ordinary Black grade Martial Skill – one of the Styles of Dragon Snake Dual Travel, Furious Sea Raging Dragon.

As the two attacks collided, a powerful force destroyed Xiao Yun’s attack, and the difference between the Martial Skills instantly became evident. Immediately following this, a berserk wave of Chilling Qi swept towards Xiao Yun like a gale, threatening to completely submerge him.

By now, the stage had become a desolate place of snow and ice. Xiao Yun had been completely surrounded by the Chilling Qi that the Chilling Dark Hand Seal emitted, and this was just the beginning – the gigantic seal hadn’t even touched Xiao Yun’s body yet!

What would happen once it hit his body?

“What dense Chilling Qi! I hope it can make my Martial Spirit’s branch a bit stronger and thicker.” Facing the berserk Chilling Qi, a passionate expression appeared on Xiao Yun’s face. He fully activated the Heaven-Devouring Divine Art, and a vortex appeared in front of him. However, because of the Chilling Qi roaring towards him, no one else detected it.

“Heaven-Devouring Divine Art, devour it all for me!” With a slight thought from Xiao Yun, the Heaven-Devouring Divine Art sucked all of the Chilling Qi into Xiao Yun’s dantian. Then, the Martial Spirit’s branch stretched into Xiao Yun’s dantian and absorbed all of the Chilling Qi.

In just an instant, Xiao Yun could feel that the branch created from Chilling Qi had grown a bit stronger. Under the Heaven-Devouring Divine Art, Fang Hao’s Chilling Dark Hand Seal’s might was gradually weakened.

Bang!

Despite this, the magic seal still hit Xiao Yun fiercely. As the magic seal descended, it smashed Xiao Yun away like the hand of god.

From the distance, the spectators could only see the youth fly out like a kite with a broken string and land about 5 metres away.

“Haha, like I said, Xiao Yun can’t even handle a single blow from young master Fang Hao.” Seeing this, a pleased look appeared on Lin Xiao Man’s face as she looked towards Yan Shi Yan beside her. The two of them had continuously butted heads over this, and continued to verbally jab at each other.

Yan Shi Yan coldly harrumphed and ignored Lin Xiao Man, but looked at the youth on the stage with worry.

“Has big brother Xiao Yun been injured?” The girl’s nose wrinkled as a look of anxiousness appeared on her face.

“Haha, after taking a blow from young master Fang Hao, Xiao Yun’s internal organs must be frozen over.”

“That Chilling Dark Hand Seal should be an Earth grade Martial Skill. How could Xiao Yun be fine after being hit by it?” The Fang family’s youths were delighted as they laughed, “He only has this much skill, and yet he wants to compete with young master Fang Hao? Trash calling itself a genius – what a joke!”

Seeing that Xiao Yun had been sent flying, the entire arena was filled with sounds of mocking, and the Fang family’s people gave a sigh of relief in secret. So what if Xiao Yun had extraordinary talent if he was crippled? Nothing was set in stone for a genius who had not yet grown.

“Has young master Xiao Yun been injured?” The people from the Xiao family all looked extremely worried, and felt their minds go blank. If this youth really had suffered heavy injuries and had been crippled by that Fang Hao, who would support their Xiao family in future?

In just an instant, various different emotions were sent through the audience, and everyone gazed at the stage intently.

However, at this moment, the fallen youth suddenly stood up.

“He can still stand?”

Following this, everyone in the audience stared with an expression of shock. After being hit by Fang Hao’s Chilling Dark Hand Seal, one’s entire body should have been frozen. How come this youth looked almost completely fine, and only had some blood coming out of his mouth?

“You’re actually fine?” Fang Hao also stared in disbelief. From Xiao Yun’s aura, he could tell that he hadn’t taken much damage. How was this possible?

He was definitely hit by my Chilling Dark Hand Seal!

It was an Earth grade Martial Skill, and had incomparable might. Once the Chilling Qi entered its victim’s body, it would quickly seal their Essence Qi, followed by their internal organs and even their limbs. Under normal circumstances, Xiao Yun should have been lying on the ground, frozen into a popsicle!

And yet, the youth had stood up, looking relatively fine. This strange scene caused everyone to feel dumbfounded.

“Could it be that there was something wrong with my attack?” Fang Hao felt that his mind had been thrown into chaos. “That shouldn’t be right; I used my full strength just then, and the Chilling Dark Hand Seal definitely hit his body and sent him flying!”

Fang Hao continued to stare at the youth opposite him in confusion and surprise.

“Your Ice Martial Spirit isn’t good enough!” Xiao Yun licked the blood from his lips and shook his head as an evil smile appeared on his face. He walked over, step by step, looking at Fang Hao’s stupefied expression with an amused expression.

“You’re actually fine?” A strange look came over Fang Hao’s face – it seemed that Xiao Yun really was unharmed!

“Of course I’m fine. What other methods do you have?”

The youth spoke extremely calmly, but his words were filled with a domineering air, as if he didn’t hold Fang Hao in his eyes at all. This sent the entire arena into a frenzy.

“What’s going on? It seems like he possesses certainty to defeat that Fang Hao!”

“Just how did you defend against my attack?” The look in Fang Hao’s eyes darkened. He simply couldn’t imagine how Xiao Yun had neutralised his Chilling Dark Hand Seal’s Chilling Qi. This situation was simply too incomprehensible, and shouldn’t have happened.

“I already said that this Ice Martial Spirit of yours is far from enough to defeat me,” Xiao Yun replied simply.

After taking the attack, Xiao Yun had gained a deeper understanding of Fang Hao’s Martial Spirit. Fang Hao’s Ice Martial Spirit indeed wasn’t weak, and could help him fight against those at the complete stage of the Innate realm. However, it was powerless against Xiao Yun.

The Heaven-Devouring Divine Art had almost instantly absorbed a large amount of Chilling Qi, allowing him to use it for himself. Adding on the fact that Xiao Yun had fused with the Violet Flame Martial Spirit, how could he be sealed by that Chilling Qi? With just a slight thought, he had completely defended against the Chilling Qi, which was then absorbed by his Martial Spirit.

With the Heaven-Devouring Divine Art absorbing Fang Hao’s Chilling Qi, Fang Hao’s attack was only comparable to a strike from someone at the early stage of the Innate realm.

“Just what did you do?” Seeing that there was no fear at all on Xiao Yun’s face, a look of panic appeared within Fang Hao’s eyes.

The Ice Martial Spirit was his trump card, and if he was unable to use it to harm Xiao Yun, what did that mean? He didn’t have a single advantage over Xiao Yun anymore!

“Looks like you really don’t have any other methods.” Xiao Yun narrowed his eyes and shrugged as his gaze became cold.

“Since you have no other methods, then it’s time for you to have a look at mine.”

After coldly speaking, Xiao Yun’s eyes gleamed as a violet light flashed within them. Following this, a scorching heatwave emanated out from his body.

The scorching heatwave covered the entire stage, dissipating the Chilling Qi. Following this, the temperature of the surrounding air quickly rose until it became unbearably hot.

“What a hot heatwave.” Fang Hao’s eyelids twitched as he felt his Chilling Qi continuously disappear.

“What’s going on?” The people under the stage were completely shocked. “Why are there heatwaves coming from Xiao Yun’s body?” This caused them to feel incredibly confused.

“Take a look at my Firecloud Palms!” Xiao Yun’s eyes flashed as he attacked. Both of his palms moved as a violet-coloured stream of fire erupted from his hands.

This stream of fire caused the surrounding air to twist and turn, and the blistering heat from it caused those who felt it to tremble in fear.

“What a powerful stream of fire. Could it be that you’ve gained control of variant flames?” Fang Hao’s eyes flashed as he seemed to realise something. “No wonder why you could defend against my Chilling Qi – you had variant flames. But you’re only at the Innate realm – how could you conquer variant flames?”

“Enough with the useless talk; take my attack.” Xiao Yun’s eyes flashed as a violet light emanated from between his palms. As Xiao Yun’s hands moved, the blistering-hot stream of fire turned into a cloud of fire and swept towards Fang Hao.

The Firecloud Palms was only a Black grade, intermediate level Martial Skill, and wasn’t extremely profound. However, the berserk aura contained by those violet flames caused even the cultivators far away to feel shocked. These flames seemed as if they could incinerate anything, and struck fear into their hearts.

“How is it possible that this youth can control these variant flames?” A look of shock appeared on the faces of the elders of the various families. Even True Essence realm cultivators like the Fang family’s old patriarch were dumbfounded.

As the violet light flashed, the scorching heatwaves approached, threatening to submerge Fang Hao.

“Why are the flames within this boy’s body so fierce?” Fang Hao turned pale with fright as he hurriedly activated his Ice Martial Spirit to defend against the scorching heatwaves. Chilling Qi swept out from his body, but it was simply unable to contend against the assault of the heatwaves.

The Violet Flame Martial Spirit was simply too strong. Although it wasn’t as powerful as it had been before, it wasn’t something that Fang Hao’s Ice Martial Spirit could put up a fight against.

After all, this was the Martial Spirit of a Pill Master!

Fang Hao hurriedly condensed a magic seal and sent it towards the Firecloud Palms. Just like before, the Chilling Dark Hand Seal took the form of a gigantic hand and struck towards the violet cloud of fire.

Bang!

A gigantic explosion sounded out as the violet light flickered. Under the assault from the Chilling Dark Hand Seal, the violet cloud of fire actually dissipated.

“Haha!” some Fang family’s youths laughed. “How could a low-level Martial Skill contend with a high-level Martial Skill?”

Just as they started to laugh, the Chilling Dark Hand Seal also collapsed. The Chilling Qi was almost instantly destroyed by the violet heatwaves, which then swept towards Fang Hao like floodwaters.

Bang!

Fang Hao was sent flying by the impact from the heatwaves. The blistering heatwaves then entered Fang Hao’s body, causing fresh blood to spurt from his mouth.

“Argh!” Fang Hao fell to the ground and gave a pitiful cry. Those who were close could detect a burned smell from his body.

“Fang Hao lost?” Hearing this cry, the spectators below revealed expressions of disbelief.
