Ling Tian Sword God

”Such speed, can’t dodge it!”

The speed at which the white fox darted past left Ling Hai with no way to evade. He immediately bit his teeth, frantically channeling the Stoneheart Sword. The ground in front of Ling Hai suddenly cracked open, and in front of him, a stone mountain abruptly formed, with sword qi merging into the stone, seemingly making it more solid.

Whoosh!

The white fox arrived in the blink of an eye, and then, under countless eyes, shot at the stone mountain. But immediately, Ling Hai’s expression filled with terror, as he realized that under such an attack, his defense was collapsing at an alarming speed!

A strong sense of danger enveloped his heart.

Clang!

Before he could even make another move, the white fox’s Sword Light had already blasted through the stone mountain. After leaving a large hole, it mercilessly struck the Stoneheart Sword in Ling Hai’s hand, instantly sparking a brilliant shower of sparks.

At the moment of collision, Ling Hai was sent flying backward, shooting over a hundred meters away.

Ling Hai’s face changed drastically, desperately trying to block the white fox’s Sword Light, but he kept retreating further and further. Before this white fox Sword Light, he was utterly powerless. Blood trickled out from the corner of his mouth.

”Damn it, you beast!”

Ling Hai was furious. Desperately retreating, he was nearing the Sword Pool. Falling off the platform would mean defeat by Ling Chen, which he couldn’t tolerate.

In a moment of crisis, Ling Hai gathered all his strength into his right hand’s Treasure Sword and swung it fiercely.

”Sky-breaking Sword Technique, Third Form, Splitting Heaven Style!”

With a loud shout, Ling Hai directly threw his Stoneheart Sword. The Treasure Sword, mixed with a fierce Sword Light, seemed to tear through the Void, splitting it in two, ferociously shooting towards Ling Chen.

This sword was eerily fast and approached Ling Chen in the blink of an eye?

Everyone could see this was Ling Hai’s desperate counterattack from a dire situation.

”Ling Hai can win!”

Ling Feng compared the speed of Ling Hai’s retreat with the speed of the shooting Sword Light and found that the Sword Light was evidently much faster, allowing it to strike Ling Chen before Ling Hai was blown off the platform!

This Splitting Heaven Style by Ling Hai was incredibly formidable; Ling Chen’s strength could definitely not withstand it.

”Oh no!”

Ling Xue and Ling Tong’s expressions changed. They initially thought Ling Chen could defeat Ling Hai before he could perform the Splitting Heaven Style, but they underestimated him. Ling Hai unexpectedly unleashed the Splitting Heaven Style, from the Sky-breaking Sword Technique’s most powerful early moves, in his moment of defeat.

At this moment, Ling Chen was also somewhat surprised. He hadn’t expected Ling Hai to have such a move even when facing defeat, catching him a bit off guard.

But there was no room for hesitation now. Everything happened in a flash. Ling Chen, in that instant, pushed the Sword Spirit Embryo to the extreme, then raised the Snow Spirit Sword, a powerful thunderous energy suddenly running across its blade.

This was Ling Chen’s first time performing Thunder Cut with the Perfect Sword Spirit Physique. Yet, as the Thunder Sword Light surged, the sword spirit of the snowy white fox also fused into the Sword Light. This strike was no longer a mere Thunder Cut, but a new sword technique infused with the Snow Spirit Sword’s sword spirit.

He named this sword technique ”Lightning Fox.”

Swoosh!

With a swing of the sword, a fox enveloped in lightning shot out, then, under countless amazed gazes, hurled at the approaching sword qi with lightning speed.

Boom!

The Lightning Fox collided with the Splitting Heaven sword qi, and terrifying gusts swept across the explosion area, with the horrifying aftershock spreading out like a tornado, kicking up towering dust and sending shards of stone flying.

Many Ling family disciples who were watching quickly retreated, activating their Qi Shields to block the approaching debris.

In the explosion area, the terrifying energy dissipated, and the two equally fierce assaults canceled each other out, vanishing into smoke.

”What? The Splitting Heaven Style was neutralized?”

Ling Feng’s eyes almost popped out, staring wide-eyed in disbelief.

”It actually broke through the Splitting Heaven Style!”

Ling Xue and Ling Tong were equally astonished.

Even Ling Yuxuan furrowed his brow. Although Ling Hai’s mastery of the Sky-breaking Sword Technique wasn’t high, at least learning the Splitting Heaven Style shouldn’t be weak. Unexpectedly, Ling Chen easily neutralized it.

The most disbelieving person was Ling Hai himself. He almost thought he could turn the tables, only to find himself falling short. Yet, before he could think too much, he was already blown off the platform.

”You lost.”

Ling Chen stopped at the platform’s edge, looking at Ling Hai with indifferent eyes.

”Damn it! I’m not defeated!”

Ling Hai refused to accept defeat, gritting his teeth, and once again dashed towards Ling Chen like an arrow leaving a bowstring.

Faced with this situation, a sharp intent appeared in Ling Chen’s eyes. Since this guy was so stubborn, he might as well give him a profound lesson.

He continued injecting his Lingtian True Qi into the Snow Spirit Sword, attempting to use the Lightning Fox again.

But suddenly, a figure appeared between them. This figure, with a mere shake, unleashed an overwhelming aura that quickly suppressed both of their energies.

The figure was none other than Patriarch Ling Tingfeng.

Once he released his Saint’s aura, the entire platform was subdued by him, let alone Ling Chen and Ling Hai.

”Today’s match is decided. From now on, Ling Chen is the new Direct Lineral Descendant. Do any of you have objections?” Ling Tingfeng’s gaze turned to Ling Yuxuan and the others, asking.

As Ling Feng was about to speak, Ling Yuxuan stopped him and shook his head, ”The First Branch has no objections to the promotion of this Ling Feather Clan brother.”

”Second Brother!”

Ling Hai looked at Ling Yuxuan with some reluctance, but the latter remained unmoved. However, there was a trace of coldness in the depths of his eyes.

It was already said during Ling Hai and Ling Chen’s duel that if Ling Hai lost, the First Branch would have no more objections to Ling Chen’s promotion to Direct Lineral Descendant. Now, in front of the public, did he want to go back on his word?

If he truly did so, the First Branch’s prestige would take a significant hit.

Boom!

And when Ling Yuxuan and the First Branch expressed they had no objections, a wave of overwhelming cheers erupted across the square. Thousands of Ling family disciples looked at the slender figure in the platform’s center with fiery eyes, all with a look of respect on their faces.

In today’s battle, Ling Chen thoroughly won over all the Ling family disciples, establishing his prestige among the younger generation, showcasing talent that rivaled Ling Yuxuan’s, and even exceeding his past prowess!
