Chapter 223: Chapter223
Liu Shuanghan aimed for the first place. Zhao Donglai led the ten great disciples of Beyond the Heavens with the intention of establishing their might and purging. Two people who originally didn't conflict became highly antagonistic because of Zhou Peng. Zhou Peng had undoubtedly become the greatest enemy in the hearts of the ten great disciples. Zhao Donglai couldn't wait to crush him, but now there was an obstacle, Liu Shuanghan. If he wanted to kill Zhou Peng openly and aboveboard, he had to defeat Liu Shuanghan first. All along, Zhao Donglai had never taken Liu Shuanghan seriously. It was like the imperial family and commoners. Zhao Donglai despised Liu Shuanghan from the bottom of his heart. He didn't deserve to be his opponent at all. That so - called Young Master of Qitian was just nonsense to him. But now, he was actually despised by Liu Shuanghan. Bare - faced, without any reservation. This made his suppressed anger erupt violently, rising to the sky. His cold eyes stared coldly at Liu Shuanghan. In an instant, murderous intent spread out, and the cold sword glinted with a cold light. "Liu Shuanghan, you are nothing in my eyes." "You don't even have the to be arrogant in front of me. If it weren't for the sect master wanting to use you to restrain the forces of the Eight Great Palaces, I would have killed you long ago. Your so - called disciples of the Qitian Sect are just a bunch of useless people in my eyes." Zhao Donglai showed a superior and contemptuous expression. Liu Shuanghan just snorted coldly and didn't even look at Zhao Donglai. This was undoubtedly a sign of his disdain for Zhao Donglai. Seeing Liu Shuanghan's expression, Zhao Donglai was even more unhappy. Since he entered the Qianji Sect, he had been regarded as the "pride of heaven". He was pampered and had not experienced any major setbacks. His cultivation path had also been smooth sailing. As his strength grew, his temperament became more and more arrogant. He had an "I'm the best in the world" attitude and was unhappy with everyone. Having been despised several times and not even being looked at directly, the anger in his heart was like adding fuel to the fire. "Huff..." Zhao Donglai exhaled heavily. The cold light of his long sword flashed, and his two sword - like eyebrows knitted together. His body suddenly disappeared. His speed increased to the extreme, and even the phantoms disappeared. An extremely fast and violent speed. Immediately after. The howling wind and rainbow - like sword qi filled the barrier. "Liu Shuanghan, get ready to go to hell and reincarnate." Suddenly, a voice burst out in the empty barrier. Immediately, a sword qi rushed out violently like the dawn... "Child's play." Liu Shuanghan smiled faintly, and then his side suddenly shook. "Clang, clang, clang..." Fireworks spattered in the air above the barrier, and the murderous intent ran rampant. In the blink of an eye. The sound of metal collisions had reached hundreds of times, getting fiercer and stronger each time. The waves on the barrier flickered secretly, like the pounding of a stormy sea against the shore. The four barrier elders were shocked again in their hearts. Their brows were tightly furrowed. They looked at each other, and then suddenly released their vast true qi with empty hands to strengthen the barrier. The four elders at the peak of the Breaking - the - Void Realm joined forces to suppress the fluctuations on the barrier, but they didn't stop. With Liu Shuanghan's strength alone, he could tear the barrier apart. Now, with Zhao Donglai at the third level of Breaking - the - Void added, the two of them fighting might cause the barrier to break again. The four barrier elders didn't dare to be careless. Inside the barrier. The two were locked in a fierce battle, and their power was constantly increasing. Although Zhao Donglai was at the third level of Breaking - the - Void and his cultivation strength was two levels higher, he didn't have the upper hand. The two were evenly matched, and in just a few seconds, they had already fought hundreds of rounds. This result was exactly what Zhou Peng hoped for. In the stands, Zhou Peng's eyes were like torches, not missing any details. He thought evilly in his heart, "Fight, fight. It would be best if you exhaust all your qi power." "Zhou Peng, who do you think will win?" Shen Yan asked with great interest, with a faint smile on his face. "Disciple can't tell..." Zhou Peng thought for a moment and replied truthfully. Actually, in his heart, he was more optimistic about Liu Shuanghan. Since their encounter in the Ten - Thousand - Snake Abyss last time, Liu Shuanghan's terrifying strength had left a shadow in his heart. So, he would rather fight Zhao Donglai than meet Liu Shuanghan. Shen Yan smiled faintly and said, "Zhao Donglai's cultivation is higher. His cultivation of the Breaking - the - Void power is a bit stronger than Liu Shuanghan's. Coupled with the protection of the Geng Metal Qi, it's very difficult for Liu Shuanghan to win." After a while, Shen Yan said again, "However, it is rumored that Liu Shuanghan has comprehended a powerful divine ability. But no one knows what it is exactly." "Divine ability?" Zhou Peng frowned and muttered. "Yes. If you fight Liu Shuanghan in the next match, you must be careful. Since he has been reluctant to use this divine ability, it must be his strongest strike that he will not use until the most critical moment." Shen Yan said. There was a trace of concern in his tone, and his eyes occasionally looked at Zhou Peng. Zhou Peng was shocked again in his heart and thought, "Why does Shen Yan suddenly seem like a different person? Why is he concerned about me?" After thinking for a while, he didn't delve deeper. All his thoughts were now focused on the battle between Liu Shuanghan and Zhao Donglai, and he didn't have the heart to think too much. If, as Shen Yan said, Liu Shuanghan had comprehended a divine ability, it was probably his strongest strike that he would not use until the critical moment. This strike would surely cause damage to him as well. So, Liu Shuanghan would not use it until the critical moment. "Rumble..." "Rumble..." ... Suddenly, there was muffled thunder in the barrier, and lightning flashed everywhere, like a huge thunder field. At this time, the inside of the barrier was like a huge battlefield, filled with smoke and a sky - high murderous intent. The continuous collisions and strikes, along with the rumbling of thunder, made the entire barrier keep shaking. If it weren't for the four elders constantly using their true qi to strengthen the barrier, it would probably have broken long ago. The strength of Zhao Donglai and Liu Shuanghan was beyond everyone's imagination. Their strength was so powerful that it reached the peak of the Breaking - the - Void Realm. No matter who won or lost in the battle between the two, it would be a great loss for the Qianji Sect. In a battle between the strong, the outcome might be decided in an instant, or it might take days and nights of fighting. Judging from this situation, it was really possible for them to fight for days and nights. The two were evenly matched, and it was difficult to determine the winner. However, the two were not convinced, especially Zhao Donglai. He launched one powerful attack after another, but they were all defused by Liu Shuanghan one by one. Similarly, Liu Shuanghan also continuously counterattacked with powerful moves of the "Wilderness Divine Art", which were also defused by Zhao Donglai. The two were at a stalemate, but they were secretly getting anxious in their hearts. Before the match, Liu Shuanghan had secretly sensed that this was a war of attrition, and in the end, the fisherman would benefit. Zhou Peng would be the biggest winner. Anxious in his heart, but it was impossible to defeat Zhao Donglai in a short time now. Unless... Unless he used his divine ability. The divine ability was his last trump card. If he released it, he would surely kill Zhao Donglai, but at the same time, he would expose himself. What worried him more was that the person would know about his divine ability. This was a divine ability he had comprehended from hatred. It was a weapon for a fatal blow when that person let his guard down. If he used it now, that "person" would surely notice. Moreover, there was still a sliver of his holy thought in his sea of consciousness. To use or not to use? Liu Shuanghan was hesitant. If he didn't use it, he couldn't defeat Zhao Donglai in a short time. Even if he finally won, the consumption of qi power was a big problem. Moreover, Zhou Peng's strength could not be underestimated. If he used it, he would surely win against Zhao Donglai, and then go on to win against Zhou Peng. But if that person knew, it was very likely that his comprehended divine ability would be stripped away. After a long time. Liu Shuanghan's eyes were fixed, and he thought in his heart, "Anyway, I must get the first place in the disciple ranking competition..." Having made up his mind, his body suddenly retreated, jumped out of Zhao Donglai's attack range, and landed in a corner of the barrier. Suddenly, he closed his eyes. Liu Shuanghan's move shocked Zhao Donglai. He couldn't figure it out. However, the moment Liu Shuanghan jumped out of the battle, he suddenly sensed a dangerous aura emanating from Liu Shuanghan. Zhao Donglai had reached the third level of Breaking - the - Void through hard cultivation and had outstanding talent. Slightly sensing danger, he immediately activated the Geng Metal Qi. In an instant, his whole body was wrapped in earth - yellow Geng Metal Qi. The Geng Metal Qi formed a qi shield, releasing an extremely powerful defensive force. The Geng Metal Qi of the ten great disciples was refined by Long Xiaotian, all for defense. With the Geng Metal Qi protecting the body, it could be called the "strongest defense"! Seeing that Liu Shuanghan didn't move for a long time, Zhao Donglai shouted angrily, "Pretending to be mysterious, courting death." As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Donglai took one step with a thunderclap, released his true qi outward, and launched another powerful attack, rushing straight up. At this time, Liu Shuanghan's eyes were slightly closed, his face expressionless. The sky - high murderous intent was as calm as still water, like an ancient well or a solid rock, unmoved by the eight winds. "What is he doing?" "Young master, danger..." "What on earth is Liu Shuanghan doing?" ... "Divine ability technique!" Zhou Peng exclaimed in shock. Shen Yan's eyes trembled, and he looked over. Just as Zhou Peng exclaimed, Liu Shuanghan's eyes suddenly fixed, and he suddenly opened his huge mouth and roared towards the sky, "Ah..." Suddenly. Hatred soared to the sky inside the barrier, instantly filling every corner. That intense hatred was like the resentment from the eighteenth layer of hell, making people shudder. Compassion? Pain? Sympathy? All kinds of complex emotions seeped through the barrier into the hearts of every disciple in the square. Almost instantly, tens of thousands of disciples' faces turned pale, their moods extremely depressed, and they were in great pain, but couldn't feel the pain physically. That feeling was indescribable. The atmosphere in the square was extremely, and there was complete silence. Decades of hatred, constantly compressed, the pain of ten thousand insects devouring the body, constantly compressed. Growing up in pain, suppressing, and the hatred bit by bit compressed. It was in this kind of pain that Liu Shuanghan had comprehended this divine ability, Devour. Releasing hatred was just an accompaniment to the divine ability. And the real attack quietly began. Zhao Donglai's heart sank. He firmly guarded his mind to prevent his sea of consciousness from being affected. But at the very moment when he was guarding his mind, his attack became a bit slower. At this instant. Liu Shuanghan sneered coldly. His body transformed into a black - colored long spear in the hatred. The long spear was about ten feet long, pitch - black and shiny all over. The spear tip was hooked, and an evil dragon coiled around the spear, gently moving as if it were alive, extremely ferocious. A divine ability comprehended from hatred. The whole person turned into a spear of vengeance. An extremely powerful murderous aura spread out. Zhao Donglai's heart tightened, and his body suddenly shivered. Pressure, extremely powerful pressure hit him... ...!
