Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 811: Chapter 811: Defeat of the Young Master Again

The sixth round of the competition had Ling Xiao facing an even stronger opponent—Hong Sanwei.

People from the Mysterious Fire Sect had always felt that Ling Xiao, of the Moon Hua Sect, did not deserve to be one of the six seed contestants. They believed that this rightful place belonged to Hong Sanwei.

Therefore, they weren’t very friendly toward Ling Xiao.

Even Hong Sanwei herself was eagerly looking forward to defeating Ling Xiao to prove that the judges’ decisions were wrong.

Ling Xiao was modest and reserved, whereas Hong Sanwei, as a girl, was domineering and unabashed. The two of them standing on the Martial Arts Platform was a stark contrast indeed.

”Ling Xiao, don’t think that just because you defeated Jian Wuji, I’m afraid of you. That night, you did indeed surprise me, but I must defeat you!”

By defeating Ling Xiao, she could not only vindicate herself but also become the adopted daughter of the Sacred Emperor and a princess of the Sacred Dynasty.

Regardless of the reason, Hong Sanwei felt that she had to defeat Ling Xiao with no other options available.

”Make your move. I am very fond of your Samadhi True Fire.”

Ling Xiao’s Hell Dragon Fire, although superior to the Death Dark Flame, was, after all, of the same fire attribute. It was unsuitable for refining many pills, which hindered the improvement of Ling Xiao’s Alchemy Technique.

This limitation had also restrained him in his Martial Arts and Array Formation.

Therefore, Ling Xiao had been looking forward to collecting all the Twelve Sacred Flames, which would allow him to use different flames for different pills, which was the optimal scenario.

He didn’t need to seize the Samadhi Truefire Soul from Hong Sanwei; he only needed to obtain the true fire seed, as he could cultivate it himself.

Hong Sanwei, however, snorted coldly and said, ”Liking is useless. The Samadhi True Fire recognizes its master, and it only favors the strong! Face my attack.”

With a fierce shout, Hong Sanwei’s figure stretched out, and she crossed a hundred meters in an instant, arriving right in front of Ling Xiao before sending out a palm strike.

This palm strike, charged with potent Samadhi True Fire, made Ling Xiao feel as if he were about to melt.

This was none other than Hong Sanwei’s signature move—the ”True Fire Palm Print.”

”Interesting, let me give it a try too!”

Ling Xiao gave a slight smile; opponents like Hong Sanwei were not easy to come by, and he did not wish to end the battle so quickly.

The phantom of the Ancient Hell Dragon appeared behind him, and he too sent out a palm strike.

”Hell Dragon Palm Print!”

Compared to the Samadhi True Fire, the Hell Dragon Fire obviously packed a stronger punch.

With a booming sound, the two of them each took steps back. Even though Ling Xiao hadn’t revealed much of his strength, he still managed to send Hong Sanwei retreating over ten steps away.

While he himself had only taken three steps back.

”Fire Cloud Step!”

Hong Sanwei was not about to give up so easily. After her palm strike failed to achieve victory, she instantly used the entry-level Body Movement Technique of the Yu Pin rank, her form whirling around, instantly turning into a sheet of fire clouds that enveloped the entire Martial Arts Platform.

Her position was untraceable.

Nor was it clear what she was going to do next.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang...

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hong Sanwei unleashed a series of palm strikes, all landing on the protective Heavenly Origin around Ling Xiao.

”Your strength is impressive, but while it might be sufficient against others, it’s not quite at the level to take me on!”

Ling Xiao’s protective Heavenly Origin was as tough as Vajra, seemingly unscathed.

Hong Sanwei’s assaults were all kept at bay, not inflicting even the slightest harm on him.

”Show me all the moves you have; otherwise, once I make my move, your defeat is certain.”

Ling Xiao’s previous clash with Hong Sanwei was only to wrest the true fire seed from her.

It could not be considered a proper attack; otherwise, he certainly would not have just stopped there.

”Fine, then I’ll let you see my ultimate move!”

”Samadhi True Fire Power – Supreme Melting Furnace!”

It wasn’t wrong to say it was a trump technique, hidden until now.

The ”Samadhi True Fire Power” from Hong Sanwei was indeed unique, as it was a dual-purpose cultivation technique, incorporating both offense and defense.

Of course, its offense was not as dominant as its defense.

The formidable aspect of this technique lay in its ability to refine the energy unleashed by both martial artists during the attack, then integrating it back into the offensive force.

As long as the defense was ultimately successful, the power would become extremely terrifying.

”I didn’t expect that to deal with Ling Xiao, I’d actually have to resort to this martial arts technique. It seems Ling Xiao really isn’t easy to handle!”

”However, once Samadhi is executed with ’Samadhi True Fire Power,’ if Ling Xiao can’t quickly end the battle, he’s sure to lose. This martial arts become more terrifying as the combat drags on.”

”Yeah, I wonder how Ling Xiao is going to counter it.”

Ling Xiao had no intention of countering it; on the contrary, he was deliberately controlling his power, seemingly cooperating with Hong Sanwei to push ”Samadhi True Fire Power” to the limit.

This was opportunitism at its finest.

He wasn’t interested in Hong Sanwei, but he was quite curious about the ”Samadhi True Fire Power.” It wasn’t that he wanted to cultivate it, but since he had never seen such a martial arts technique, he wanted to take the opportunity to test whether he could stay calm in the face of such a powerful attack.

After dozens of consecutive attacks, Hong Sanwei kept retreating.

Until she reached the very edge of the Martial Arts Platform, with nowhere left to retreat, her eyes suddenly burst forth with astonishing brilliance.

”Ling Xiao, take this—Divine Fire’s Wrath!”

As one of the Twelve Sacred Flames, Samadhi True Fire was inherently extremely powerful.

Though sometimes used for alchemy, it was quite gentle.

But when the Divine Fire became enraged, even the best Alchemy Furnace would be blasted open.

In this moment, the Samadhi True Fire was truly enraged.

Its momentum was shockingly massive, as if the entire Martial Arts Platform would be completely consumed by the blazing inferno, utterly unstoppable.

”Oh? Is this your strongest attack? Truly formidable!”

Facing this fierce strike, a surprised smile appeared on Ling Xiao’s face.

Whoosh!

Behind him, a giant Hell Melting Furnace materialized, and as its lid opened, a black-gold flame shot out, turning into a gigantic Divine Dragon, which actually opened its mouth to devour the raging Samadhi True Fire.

The flames that filled the sky vanished instantaneously.

It created an incredibly discordant feeling.

It was like the thunderous rage of Doomsday, which should have descended, was suddenly replaced by clear skies.

The abruptness felt all too strange.

Others merely felt discomfort.

But Hong Sanwei felt so terrible she wanted to vomit blood.

”How is this possible! How can this be! Are you human or a ghost?”

Hong Sanwei couldn’t believe this was real. Even when she had lost so decisively to Qin Bi Xue, she had never felt such despair.

Because she knew she still had a trump technique she hadn’t used.

But today, she truly felt a sense of despair.

The opponent was too strong, so strong that she couldn’t sense the slightest glimmer of hope.

”My heavens, Ling Xiao is truly terrifying. Could it be that he’s been pretenting all along, only to suddenly turn the tide at the last moment, deliberately toying with Hong Sanwei?”

”Whether he’s toying with her or not, this man is too terrifying, too unfathomable. Even though Hong Sanwei might have lost to Qin Bi Xue, to be so utterly defeated by Ling Xiao is beyond what I had anticipated.”
