The First Volume of Divine Land: Chapter 169 - The War of the Strong (Part 1)
Ling Yichen spoke as he grabbed Xuan Tian and pushed him towards the back.
Xuantian's body suddenly flew backward, traversing sixty or seventy meters in the air before landing at the edge of the square.
Ling Yichen pushed Xuan Tian aside, it seems that he is going to use his true strength. In the Lingyun Sect, a fierce battle is about to begin.
Although Lingyun Sect has three Supreme Elders who are all strong in the Earth Stage, their cultivation is not as good as Ling Yidun's.
Chi Dong Feng is a second-order cultivator of the Earth Realm, Hua Tie Yi and Mu Chang Qing are both first-order cultivators of the Earth Realm, while Ling Yu Chen is a third-order cultivator of the Earth Realm.
Although the martial artist's cultivation has reached the Earth Stage, the source of power within their body has transformed from Prenatal True Qi to True Origin, differing by one stage, and the difference in strength is not as great as it was during the Prenatal Stage.
However, precisely because true yuan is an important basis for strength, the difference in strength between realms is even more difficult to make up for through other aspects. Therefore, among strong practitioners of the Earthly Stage, the difficulty of skipping levels and challenging others is much greater than that of the Pre-Heavenly Stage.
Perhaps, the martial artists of the Innate Realm, due to their extraordinary swordsmanship and comprehension of the intent of swords and knives... can increase their strength exponentially and easily challenge higher levels. However, upon reaching the Earthly Realm, these aspects are greatly restricted in terms of increasing one's strength, because for the strong practitioners of the Earthly Realm, the strength or weakness of their True Yuan has become a crucial basis for their strength, far outweighing the importance of Innate True Qi in the composition of their strength.
A genius who could defeat opponents across realms in the Innate Realm, stepped into the Earthly Realm, and at most, can maintain a top-notch level within the same realm. Cross-realm challenges will no longer be sustained.
A genius who can defeat opponents across two boundaries in the Innate Realm, when entering the Earthly Realm, can at most cross one boundary. A super talent who can transcend three boundaries in the Innate Realm, when entering the Earthly Realm, can at most transcend two boundaries.
Entering the realm of the earth stage. Although the gap in strength between each other is narrowing, basically every one of them is a master. The difficulty of challenging across levels has become even greater.
Because every warrior who can set foot in the Earth Realm is not a mediocre talent.
Ling Yichen had a cultivation base of three layers of Earthly Realm, and one person was enough to suppress the three great inner door elders of Lingyun Sect.
Ling Yidun really wants to take action. Although he is currently in the Lingyun Sect, Chi Dongfeng's face also showed a stern expression.
Chi Dongfeng's age is six or seven years younger than Ling Yichen. When he was young, his cultivation was not as good as Ling Yichen's, although he was a genius and could challenge opponents of higher levels in the Xiantian realm, but Ling Yichen was stronger than Chi Dongfeng in challenging higher levels. The two had fought several times, and each time, Chi Dongfeng was defeated by Ling Yichen.
Later on, as they grew older, both of them became pillars of their respective sects and gradually stopped crossing hands with each other. In the blink of an eye, several decades had passed.
When he was young, Ling Yichen's left arm was still intact. Later, after leaving the Divine Sword Dynasty and venturing out, his arm was cut off by someone. Chi Dongfeng heard about it and felt extremely excited, wondering what percentage of his peak strength Ling Yichen had retained after losing an arm. Did he have any hope of defeating Ling Yichen?
However, Chi Dongfeng never had the courage to challenge Ling Yichen.
Today, whether Chi Dongfeng has the courage to challenge Ling Yichen or not, a battle between the two is already inevitable.
And Ling Yichen's battle is not just against Chi Dongfeng alone, but also includes Hua Tiexi, Chang Muqing, and the entire Lingyun Sect.
Chi Dongfeng challenged Ling Yuchen, but for decades, he didn't have the courage to bring it up. Ling Yuchen fought one battle, yet he wanted to challenge the entire Lingyun Sect. The strength between the two was already differentiated by this demeanor alone.
The three-tiered Ling Yi dust is unmatched by Chi Dong Feng, even if he loses an arm.
Ling Yichen pushed Xuan Tian tens of meters away, and suddenly, a formless force burst out from his body, stirring up a wave of air. In the invisible air, layer upon layer of ripples were transmitted.
In an instant, countless sword lights flashed, crisscrossing the surrounding void.
Hua Tienyi and Chang Muzheng both let out a cry of surprise and hastily retreated three steps.
Chi Dongfeng's expression also changed greatly, and he exclaimed: "What—? You actually grasped the fourth-level sword intent?"
Fourth-stage sword intent, with the mid-to-late stage of the Earth Realm's martial arts realm, one level higher, the illusory attack it creates is not just spiritual, but can condense into a visible sword light that can be seen by the naked eye. The real feeling is very strong, even if it's an early-stage strong person in the Earth Realm, they would find it hard to resist.
Although Ling Yichen directed the power of the fourth-order sword intent at the three Supreme Elders of the Lingyun Sect, the illusory sword intent still spread out in all directions, and Xuan Tian, who was dozens of meters away, still felt the residual waves of the sword intent, and his heart couldn't help but tremble.
The intensity of the fourth-order sword intent, Xuan Tian had personally experienced it before. Ling Yuchen actually grasped the sword intent to the intensity of the fourth order, indeed formidable.
Ling Yichen's first move was to dispel the fierce anger that had been building up earlier, and his emotions became calm once again. However, he now looked even more profound and unpredictable, with a dark and intimidating aura.
As the fourth-order sword intent burst out, Ling Yidun's palm stood up, and his true yuan shot out from the tip of his palm, transforming into a giant true yuan sword over 100 meters long, dazzling white, shining in all directions.
With a single slash of his palm, the True Yuan giant sword was instantly cut down.
With a loud whoosh, the air hundreds of meters in front of the sword tip was suddenly cut in two by the intense sword energy.
The sword energy is still so powerful, this hundred-meter-long true yuan giant sword, the power is even more astonishing. If this sword were to be slashed down, Ling Yuchen standing on the platform in the center of the square, the tip of the true yuan giant sword would be enough to slash into the main hall of the Lingyun Sect.
This sword of Ling Yichen is not only attacking Chi Dongfeng, Hua Tieyi and Mu Changqing, but also covers dozens of inner door elders in front of the main hall of Lingyun Sect, as well as the inner door disciples inside the main hall of Lingyun Sect, all under the attack of this sword.
Xuān Tiān looked at the True Yuan giant sword, his heart was shocked and amazed. Although he could also slash out a sword aura over 100 meters long, but compared to Líng Yì Chén's True Yuan giant sword, it was like the difference between fireflies' glow and moonlight.
Not to mention the momentum, which is far inferior, but in terms of power, it's even more worlds apart. A martial artist above the mid-stage of the Innate Realm can completely rely on their Innate True Qi to protect their body and withstand the sword edge attack of Xuan Tian. However, Ling Yidun's true yuan giant sword is a strong opponent at the beginning of the Earth Stage, whose body doesn't even dare to touch.
Faced with the true yuan giant sword that Ling Yidun had slashed down, which was over a hundred meters long, Chi Dongfeng, Hua Tieyi, and Mu Changqing did not dare to retreat. They could only resist, for if the three of them retreated, then the dozens of Lingyun Sect's inner sect elders behind them, as well as the grand hall of the Lingyun Sect, would all be struck by Ling Yidun's sword.
"One Shot Through the Void!"
"One slash, no scars!"
"Shatter the Void!"
In an instant, Chi Dongfeng, Hua Tieyi, and Mu Changqing simultaneously made their moves. One thrust out a spear, one slashed out with a sword, and one chopped out with a palm.
This spear, this knife, and this palm are all condensed from true yuan. The power is astonishing. The three people's martial will have reached the third stage of intensity, facing Ling Yidun's fourth-stage sword intent, although there was an impact, but no big problem.
In terms of volume size, this gun, knife, and palm are far inferior to the majestic sword cut out by Ling Yicheng, with a length of no more than 20 meters.
However, in terms of solidity, it should surpass them.
The more true yuan condenses into soldiers, the larger the volume, the smaller the true yuan intensity, the looser. The smaller the volume, the greater the true yuan intensity, the more solid.
If we're talking about attack distance, Ling Yichen's one sword can slash out thousands of meters away, and still have plenty to spare. However, the intensity of that True Yuan is quite sparse, not much stronger than the sword aura of a Pre-Heavenly True Qi.
Although the true yuan intensity, Chi Dong and Hua Tie Yi, Mu Changqing are not as good as Ling Yuchen, however, the three of them can shrink the true yuan gathering soldier's volume to achieve the effect of condensing into a weapon, with a stronger intensity being more solid.
Rustle rustle...
The hundred-meter-long True Yuan giant sword was struck by that one spear, one knife and one palm, and instantly dissipated.
Rustle rustle rustle rustle——
Tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap——
The magnitude of the force is related to volume, but strength is more advantageous when volume is larger. Chi Dongfeng and Hua Tieyi, Mu Changqing's three people, defeated Ling Yuchen's giant sword, but their whole body shook, each retreated four steps and seven steps, and both hands were numb from shock.
"Take another move from me - Five Finger Sword Flick!" Ling Yuchen's voice rang out instantly.
He saw his right arm stretch out in front of him, five fingers clenched into a fist, and suddenly open.
Hooooo!
The true yuan burst forth, transforming into five gleaming swords of light, shooting out in all directions.
These five sharp swords, each about three meters long, compared to the true yuan giant sword that was over a hundred meters long just now, are like the difference between an elephant and an ant.
However, Chi Dongfeng, Hua Tieyi, and Mu Changqing's faces were even more horrified. These five True Yuan swords were so small in size, how could they be so sturdy?
It's just that compared to earth-grade treasures, they're not much different.
A sound of tearing through the air came over.
Wu Bing's true yuan sword sliced through the air, and in an instant, it struck towards the faces of Chi Dongfeng, Hua Tieyi, and Mu Changqing.
The sword had yet to arrive, but the intense sword energy had already pierced through the air in front of the three people, like a gust of wind that blew on the three people's bodies, making their hearts feel a chill.
In front of Ling Yichen, the three people couldn't even resist, and they felt a huge pressure, let alone counterattack.
"Golden Blade Cuts Through the Void!"
Huā Tiěyī's arms grasped together, a hand knife slashed out, unleashing a move of the Earth-level ultimate technique. As his true yuan reached its peak, a golden long knife burst forth, violently slashing through the air for over 100 meters. However, the blade itself was only slightly over one meter in length and clashed with Líng Yìchén's single finger thrust of true yuan sword energy, producing a deafening "CLANG" sound. Huā Tiěyī explosively retreated tens of meters, blocking this one-fifth of a sword strike.
"A single tree blocks out the sky!"
Mu Changqing pushed with both hands, and the true yuan surged out, transforming into a giant tree that was hundreds of meters long, blocking Ling Yidun's incoming sword of true yuan.
Zhenyuan Li Jian's momentum was like breaking bamboo, and the giant tree that covered the sky was simply unable to withstand a single blow. However, Mu Changqing's body continuously retreated, backing away dozens of meters, until Zhenyuan Li Jian broke through the giant tree nearly a hundred meters away. Finally, his strength was exhausted, and he vanished into nothingness. Mu Changqing also blocked this one-fifth of a sword.
The other three swords shot out together, striking the Red Eastern Thunderbolt.
