Chapter 261: Chapter 260: First-class Strike on the Innate (Seeking Subscriptions) "One move, to determine life and death! Jii Haoran was overly cautious. He didn’t give Young Master Bai the slightest chance. Directly overwhelming with power, he intended to crush him with one move." The elder sighed slightly, showing a trace of pity. Jii Haoran, as an Innate Expert, had too much combat experience. Even though his strength far surpassed Bai Ziyue, allowing him to easily overpower him, he still went all out, leaving no chance for the opponent to escape or turn the tables. With one strike, he killed the danger in its cradle. The young man’s face turned slightly pale, and he couldn’t help feeling a bit regretful. All the surrounding people widened their eyes at this moment, not daring to blink. Bai Ziyue’s eyes blazed open, his fighting spirit soared even higher, and the aura rising from him grew intense as the Inner Strength in his body suddenly connected. Buzz! Dazzling light erupted, and a layer of golden defensive Inner Strength suddenly rose on his skin. This layer of defensive Inner Strength, though seemingly thin, appeared even more defensive than the gigantic Golden Bell from before. The surface of the Inner Strength had layer upon layer of ripples, naturally possessing the effect of deflecting and absorbing force. Invincible Golden Body Technique! Integrating and optimizing several cultivation techniques, not only did the Invincible Golden Body Technique possess the defensive capability of the Golden Bell Shield, but it also surpassed the Golden Bell Shield at Perfection. Next moment! His body stretched, standing on the ground as if he was the only one in heaven and earth, drawing immense power from the mountains and rivers, as the Black God Saber rose with apocalyptic might. Godslaying Saber Technique! Integrating and refining numerous martial arts, the Godslaying Saber Technique, which incorporated countless martial arts mysteries, was finally exhibited in its entirety at this moment. Boom... Divine Intent collided, sound waves crushed, and endless energy wantonly erupted. As if the sky collapsed and the earth split, dazzling light burst forth, and two figures flew backward instantly. "Blocked it." Everyone widened their eyes, almost unable to believe what they were seeing. They knew very well that Jii Haoran’s saber had not held back any strength, yet it still hadn’t harmed Bai Ziyue in the slightest. Evenly matched? Could a first-class expert really contend with an Innate expert? Just as this thought crossed their minds, they saw the two figures on the battlefield clashing again at even greater speed. Boom! Boom! Boom! The void trembled, and the heavens and earth roared. The ground collapsed, and the mountains and rivers shattered. The entire battlefield was a scene of devastation. Bai Ziyue and Jii Haoran fought to the point of madness, continuously slashing with their long knives. From time to time, Sword Qi and Sword Aura emanated from their clashes, stretching for dozens of meters. The hard stones and tall trees seemed as soft as tofu in their battle, easily shattered. The battlefield extended, causing destruction along the way, truly showing how powerful they were. Countless onlookers were present, but very few could actually see the exchanges between the two. They could only vaguely see their shadows flickering and leaping on the ground, but couldn’t determine who had the upper hand or who was at a disadvantage. "Could it be that a first-class expert could really defeat an Innate Realm expert?" Watching the two engrossed in the fierce battle, their faces were confused, their hearts filled with immense shock. Before today, no one would have believed this. But now, they had to admit that there were truly prodigies in this world, absolute prodigies. "Exhilarating! More!" Bai Ziyue was incredibly excited, his long knife swirling, his battle spirit soaring to the heavens. At this moment, he not only displayed his sword technique but also turned his entire body into a lethal weapon, launching a terrifying offensive against Jii Haoran’s Magical Artifact. Sword Technique, Fist Force, Palm Technique, Sound Wave Attack... His entire strength, under the pressure of the Innate Expert, was astonishingly displayed. Perhaps in physical strength and Inner Strength characteristics, he was far inferior to Jii Haoran. After all, there were distinctions between the Innate Realm and a first-class expert. But the extraordinarily refined techniques, the terrifying strength of his sword technique, and the sound wave attack embedded in his saber technique allowed him to remain undefeated. He even gained the upper hand. Because as time passed, under the pressure of the Innate Realm expert, the strength he had gained from the Attribute Panel started to refine, becoming more smooth and rounded. His strength steadily increased, seemingly without end. "Kill!" With a loud shout, Jii Haoran’s face turned extremely grim. The strength that Bai Ziyue displayed filled him with tremendous fear, especially as he started to fall into a disadvantage. His heart was filled with intense unease. He would lose! If this continued, he might actually lose! Moreover, a martial artist like Bai Ziyue, with such potential and astonishing strength, was utterly despairing. If he didn’t completely eliminate him this time, and if Bai Ziyue broke through to the Innate Realm with the help of the Innate Pill next time, then his own situation... This one must not be left alive! Gritting his teeth, Jii Haoran’s Innate True Qi suddenly reversed and surged upwards. Bang! Bang! Bang! In an instant, his body swelled, suddenly growing more than a size larger, resembling a small giant, filled with boundless fury and power. The fine silk clothes that fit him well were torn apart in an instant, hanging on his body like tattered rags. His tall stature, broad shoulders, muscular and powerful limbs... under the terrifying pressure, he looked like a Divine Demon descended upon the world. Celestial Destiny Burning Element Technique! This was a desperate cultivation technique, reversing True Qi, burning Primordial Qi, Qi and Blood, and Life Force... it was a technique of desperation. Once it was unleashed, it would cause irreversible damage. Of course, his power would also surge drastically. This time, to completely kill Bai Ziyue, Jii Haoran finally went all out. Boom! A slash descended like a Demon-Slaying Heavy Hammer, crashing down. Bai Ziyue’s body paused and instantly flew backward. "Kill!" Jii Haoran roared, his long blade shredding through, and the blade aura swept across an entire hundred meters. Bai Ziyue retreated again, the protective golden body around him shaking violently, seemingly unable to withstand such powerful attacks and instantly dimming. "Just a bit more." The inner strength within Bai Ziyue swiftly circulated, and his momentum rose once more, slashing out with his blade. An inexplicable sense of energy brewed in his heart. In a trance, his consciousness and will instantly fused with his sword technique. Divine Intent, Sword Intent! A trace of realization flashed in Bai Ziyue’s eyes. It turned out the reason he felt uneasy was not because of a gap in his martial arts realm. This Godslaying Saber Technique actually reached the perfection realm the moment it was optimized and fused. However, this kind of perfection was only perfection in the sword technique, perfection in technique and power, yet it lacked the perfection in divine intent. Only with divine intent perfection, the union of the Sword God, could he truly unleash the ultimate power of this blade technique. Now, he had realized this in his heart. Surging with spiritual power, he instantly fused it with the sword technique. Waves of willpower began to brew, slowly infusing into the blade. Gradually merging with the Godslaying Saber Technique. "Die!" Jii Haoran’s eyes turned cold, slashing out again. Boom! The heavens and earth roared, and anyone could see the void seeming to be cut open, a black mark condensing in the air before dispersing after a long while. And on the ground, already torn apart by this shocking battle, the earth collapsed as if an earth dragon had turned over, sinking deeply. Marks of blade slashes and deep craters bore witness to the ferocity of this battle. "Is it finally over?" "It’s over! Sect Leader Jii has already gone all out. This battle is definitely over." "No one expected that Young Master Bai’s strength was so formidable. He stood against the innate expert and even forced Sect Leader Jii to use the Celestial Destiny Burning Element Technique to stimulate his potential and kill him... He is already qualified to be proud. The only regret is that his brilliance hadn’t yet had the chance to bloom before he fell. It’s indeed tragic and pathetic." "There’s nothing pitiful about it. This battle will surely be passed down through the generations, sung by countless people. He is already qualified to be proud." "Rising like a comet, falling like a meteor! This is the Jianghu!" ... "I’ve succeeded!" In the deep pit, a gleam of brilliance suddenly shone from Bai Ziyue’s eyes. Divine intent fused. He had finally perfected the Godslaying Saber Technique. Affected by this, he also immersed his willpower in the cultivation of the Invincible Golden Body Technique. Instantly, he felt an earth-shaking change within his inner strength. The originally light golden inner strength began to rapidly rotate and transformed into a golden glow. Golden inner strength! Under the push of this inner strength, his meridians, flesh, skin, and bones rapidly transformed, with his strength soaring with no end in sight. His momentum surged, ascending vigorously. "Not dead yet?" Jii Haoran’s face changed drastically, sensing the rapidly rising, even surpassing his previous peak momentum from the deep pit. A sense of fear rooted in his heart. Hurriedly mustering all his strength, he once again spurred on his true qi, burning his qi, blood, and vitality. Instantly, his face turned deathly pale, his features aging, and his figure hunching forward. However, because of this, a slash far stronger than before was unleashed. With that slash, the heavens and earth seemed to mourn with cries of blood. Amidst this overwhelming momentum, the strike descended. In the calm deep pit, a blade light no more than three feet long suddenly shot out silently. At the moment it collided with the enormous blade light. Bang! With a deafening crash, the enormous blade light shattered into countless white lights. "How could this be possible?" Jii Haoran’s face changed drastically, almost unable to believe his eyes. His blade strike, burning his qi and blood essence, could not block that tiny blade aura? The three-foot blade aura, condensed to an extreme, only slightly dimmed after shattering the enormous blade light, before transforming into a stream of light once more, slashing down. In almost an instant, it reached above Jii Haoran’s head. "No..."
