Chapter 1883: The Blade's Qi Is Boiling, the Blade's Light Is Like a Prison
However, the woman definitely couldn't have seen through his identity.
This was because the enemy wouldn't be so stupid as to take action in this performance arena where countless people were watching after figuring out who he really was.
So far, Lin Xun had won three fights in a row.
This performance still seemed a bit inferior in comparison though. On the other seventeen stages, people like Chu Qiu, Gu Jianxing and others had won five games in a row. In fact, there were some who had won as many as seven games in a row!
There were also some strong experts who had appeared for the first time and were defeated by a challenger.
In short, it was Chu Qiu, Gu Jianxing and some other peerless, dazzling figures who were shining at this moment. Compared to them, Lin Xun's current record was still not too eye-catching.
Lin Xun was too lazy to pay attention to this.
Winning really meant nothing to him. He just wanted to observe as much as possible and experience more of his opponents’ Great Dao Fields.
That was all.
In the fourth match, Lin Xun's opponent was an extremely famous blade cultivator named Gao Lingtian. He came from a clan that was only considered a medium-sized force in Cloud State. He was an advanced stage supreme Saint-King and had a rough appearance with sharp edges.Gao Lingtian's reputation was extremely well-known. He was known as the Demon Blade Saint-King among the younger generation. His Blade Chant Purgatory Dao Field was praised by some from the older generation.
Noticing this, Tao Songting couldn't help but speak up at the judging area, "This kid is in trouble."
"You can only know the true winner after the fight is over. I noticed that Jin Duyi was still holding back during his first three battles.” interjected Madam Yu, who was wearing a blue dress, with interest.
Hong Yu opened his mouth to speak, but ultimately held back. He also knew that Tao Songting was very unhappy because of the bet just now.
At the moment, he didn't plan on provoking the other party anymore.
Because Gao Lingtian had appeared, this battle attracted a lot of attention in the audience, so Lin Xun was also noticed.
This was the influence of the Demon Blade Saint-King being present.
Naturally, the most discussed topic was whether Jin Duyi could hold out for a few moves against Gao Lingtian's blade.
Very few thought that Lin Xun would win.
When he heard these discussions, Tao Songting smiled but said nothing, probably thinking that the audience's eyes were sharp.
Hong Yu was inwardly quite amused. I wonder if your face will hurt after you see the true result.
Clang!
On the ring, a bright and dazzling weapon suddenly appeared. In Gao Lingtian's palm was a blade that was completely white and exuded a vast cold current.
The mysterious totem engraved on the blade vaguely revealed an amazing image of a fire dragon devouring the air.
With his blade in hand, Gao Lingtian's aura changed, resembling an infinitely sharp weapon that stood between heaven and earth with an unparalleled edge!
His fierce power made many strong experts in the audience feel shocked and astounded.
Despite that, Lin Xun was still the same as before with a calm expression without any emotional fluctuations.
"Extremely wild!"
Gao Lingtian didn't try to blabber and instead swung his blade in a fierce attack.
Swish!
With that one slash, it was as if he had turned insane and the blade qi that was released also showed a kind of crazy and wild aura that ignored the world and looked as if it could break all shackles.
The void split open like a canvas being torn, and the explosion spread.
That touch of blade energy amazed countless spectators at this moment.
On the other hand, Lin Xun did not move, but a wisp of sword energy swept out that was mysterious and unrestrained, like a natural phenomenon, without a trace of artificiality.
Bang!
The blade and sword energy collided and shattered into pieces in the void.
"Extremely wild!"
Without hesitation, Gao Lingtian's aura detonated crazily as he slashed out with his blade again. It was raging and violent, making it sound as if the wind and rain from the sky were whistling and sweeping across the universe.
All of his madness was being vented in the power behind the blade.
Lin Xun's eyes were filled with surprise. This kind of blade art was based on the seven emotions and six desires, and it unfolded different amazing visions.
Crazy, crazy to the extreme.
Wild, wild to the limit!
Lin Xun did not hesitate as he punched out ferociously. In fact, Gao Lingtian could not pose a threat to him. What he was interested in was the power of the blade art that was being interpreted by Gao Lingtian.
Boom~
The sky went dark and divine light roared.
Gao Lingtian and Lin Xun fought. One was full of sharp blade energy as he fought fiercely in a wantonly dominating manner, which dazzled all of the spectators. The other was like a cloud in the sky, calm and composed, with a sword energy that flowed while showing an extraordinary and utter complete aura.
For a moment, no one knew how many were captivated by this scene.
Even the participants in the other arenas looked over.
"That Jin Duyi is really amazing. It's really surprising that he can compete with Gao Lingtian."
"In terms of cultivation level, Jin Duyi is a little weaker. Strictly speaking, however, Gao Lingtian is slightly inferior in terms of combat power."
"That's not necessarily true. Gao Lingtian has just appeared and is obviously holding back a little."
There was constant discussion.
Lin Xun's performance was also being noticed by people. Many people realized that this unknown casual cultivator Jin Duyi was actually a hidden dragon.
This naturally aroused their interest.
However, Gao Lingtian's performance was still unanimously eye-catching. In fact, some young women excitedly screamed to cheer for the Demon Blade Saint-King.
"Extremely wild!"
In the arena, Gao Lingtian's momentum changed again as his aura skyrocketed to become stronger and stronger. In his madness, he was extremely crazy.
He was crazy about the blade and crazy about the dao!
Therefore, he had become crazy due to his obsession!
"Not bad, not bad, I didn't expect that there would be such a person in the first round of selections. I underestimated this place before..."
Lin Xun nodded inwardly.
Although Gao Lingtian's combat power still could not threaten him, he was seeing a unique blade power.
Just as Lin Xun was seeking the way of “I am the one and only under the heavens," Gao Lingtian's blade had a pure "crazy and wild" taste to it.
There was no question of superiority or inferiority, and only the depth of attainments achieved by the other mattered.
At this time, many audience members were affected.
Some were shocked by Gao Lingtian's blade power while others were surprised by Lin Xun's performance.
This was because Gao Lingtian’s power had been rising and rising ever since the start of the battle. Despite the pressure, Lin Xun still took it all in stride, and there was no sign of him being suppressed throughout this entire time.
"Jin Duyi, Jin Duyi... Why have I never heard of this name in Cloud State before?"
"Is he from a star field outside the Great Primordial Chaos World?"
"It must be so. I heard that there are many peerless monsters on the Ancient Nebula Road. They crossed the starry sky and arrived in the Great Primordial Chaos World a while ago just to participate in the Dao Debate Assembly. This Jin Duyi must be one of them."
"Now that is something exciting to watch!"
A sensation arose in the spectators.
Chu Qiu, Gu Jianxing and the others had performed brilliantly, which was not surprising, because these peerless figures had long been famous in Cloud State.
However, the appearance of Jin Duyi gave people a sense of surprise and novelty. It was just like discovering a rising comet or a dark horse that came out of nowhere.
"Brother Tao, it seems that you are mistaken this time,” Madam Yu said with a smile.
"That's not necessarily true. Madam Yu, do you think that Gao Lingtian, a peerless blade cultivator, will lose?" Tao Songting responded calmly.
Hong Yu resisted the urge to speak and instead thought to himself. Although Gao Lingtian is strong, he is far inferior to She Ling from Phantasm Empyrean Island. After all, She Ling...was almost killed by Jin Duyi...
Ding!
On the stage, weapons clashed and shook the sky.
This battle was so exciting that it even stole the limelight from other stages, and more and more cultivators began to pay attention to this battle.
Even Chu Qiu, Gu Jianxing, Zhuo Fengying and the others who were fighting with their opponents would glance over at this duel from time to time.
As supreme Saint-Kings and peerless figures with extraordinary attainments in this realm, they were not very interested in ordinary opponents.
Originally, Jin Duyi, Lin Xun’s fake identity, was also ignored by them.
However, now they had discovered that Jin Duyi was actually a very powerful expert who had been hiding very deeply!
After all, if they had to face Gao Lingtian, they would need to be on their guard!
Of note, no one knew that Lin Xun had been restraining himself since the start of the battle.
He needed an opponent like Gao Lingtian as he required the other person to have a good grasp of the dao in order to make more observations. That way he could ponder more upon the dao and reach an elevated comprehension.
All of this was for the sake of finishing his own unique Great Dao Field.
All rivers would eventually run into the sea. The core of his dharma art, the Great Dao Furnace Art, was to integrate thousands of daos and derive thousands of arts in the world.
Thus, the Great Dao Field that he would complete in the future should also be an extremely unique one that perfectly matched with his own dao and laws.
It was undoubtedly very difficult to achieve this step.
From his six months on Whirlwind Ship to the many months after arriving in the Great Primordial Chaos World, he had been pondering and working on this matter.
He studied the All-Inclusive Plant Index, traveled across multiple states, and was now in the arena to discuss the dao with his opponents. All of this was for the sake of his goal of completing his Great Dao Field!
Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles, retreating from the world to cultivate and reentering the world to hone his skills…all of that was for this!
...
In the ring, Gao Lingtian was becoming more and more crazy, wild, and insane!
His blade whistled passionately, splashing out raging, fierce, and pure streaks of energy, making it resemble a galaxy pouring down from the sky.
His entire consciousness was immersed in a boiling state of extreme fighting intent.
At this point in the battle, the only thought that came to his mind was: This Jin Duyi is an extremely rare opponent to come across!
This made him happy instead of dismayed. Only such an opponent could allow him to fight without any scruples and obstacles in the battle.
However, if he knew what Lin Xun was thinking during the battle, he would be incredibly shocked...
After all, Lin Xun was not paying attention to the duel at all. Instead, the reason why he was restraining himself in this fight was because he wanted to understand as many mysteries as possible that would be useful to him.
Boom!
Suddenly, in the arena, Gao Lingtian's momentum changed again. He howled fiercely and swung the weapon in his hand fiercely.
The white blade energy surged, and a solemn Great Dao Field then covered it. Within, the blade energy was boiling, and the light it produced was like a prison!
Lin Xun had been waiting for this moment, and he flashed in without hesitation.
"This... Isn't this suicidal?"
Many people were stunned.
Following that, the cultivators who had witnessed Lin Xun's first three battles from the beginning felt a tingling sensation on their scalps.
It’s happening again!
He was like this when fighting Dong Liushi.
He was also like this when fighting Wang Zhenyang!
Others tried to avoid their opponent’s Great Dao Field, but Jin Duyi was eager to rush in every time...
