Chapter 206 1 stone 2 birds
"Then, next..." Shangguan Jiannan looked around, his sharp eyes seemed to be able to penetrate everyone's heart. Finally, his sight stopped in one direction, and he announced in a steady voice: "My opponent will be Chu Tianjiao." As soon as these words came out, it was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, stirring up thousands of waves.
There were bursts of surprised voices from the crowd. Although they were not familiar with Chu Tianjiao, from the powerful spiritual pressure emanating from him and his past battle records, it can be inferred that this person's strength should not be underestimated. It is even possible that he is stronger than the previous Guo Polu.
Shangguan Jiannan's choice of such an opponent undoubtedly created a huge challenge for himself. "Junior Brother Jiannan, are you really sure?" Chu Qingxuan looked worried, hesitant to speak, his eyes full of concern and uneasiness.
"Don't worry, senior sister." Shangguan Jiannan interrupted her worries, his tone firm and confident, "My physical skills have improved recently, I should be able to deal with him. I alone am enough." As soon as he finished speaking, the whole space seemed to be shrouded in a heavy and tense atmosphere.
In the empty venue, the two forces were confronting each other, and the surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be infected by the tense atmosphere and was ready to move.
"Humph, you ignorant boy, how dare you challenge me."
Chu Tianjiao raised a cold smile, his eyes flashed fiercely, "Today, no one can save you."
After he finished speaking, spiritual energy surged around his body, and he slapped out with one palm, and tremendous spiritual power surged towards Shangguan Jiannan like a tide.
“No help from others is needed.”
Shangguan Jiannan responded with a sneer, and turned the Slaying Heaven Sword in his hand. A ray of fiery red spiritual energy cut through the air, colliding violently with Chu Tianjiao's attack in mid-air, causing a deafening sound.
The battle officially began at this moment.
The contest between the two is not only a collision of strength, but also a confrontation of will and belief.
In this space filled with the atmosphere of battle, everyone was shocked by this indomitable spirit.
Strange waves spread like ripples, accompanied by a low buzzing sound, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.
"Go! Kill them!" "Don't show mercy!" Several loud shouts rang out one after another. A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Guo Polu's eyes. He swung his sword and rushed into the battlefield like an arrow.
Boom! The two sides clashed in an instant, and the earth-shaking collision sound echoed in the intricate mine tunnel and resounded through the sky.
In the depths of the mine, several figures quietly appeared. They were all wearing black robes, which completely covered their figures, making it difficult to see their true faces. The leader was tall and walked steadily, revealing a majestic aura.
"Great Elder, you are truly a prophet." Ji Beixuan, standing aside, could not hide his joy on his calm face, and said respectfully: "This action really kills two birds with one stone."
Mo Tiancheng walked quickly, his face stern, a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't be careless, we have been preparing for a long time, we must ensure that everything goes well."
"Go in quickly, your grandfather and the others must be getting impatient," he urged, his voice low and powerful.
"Yes, sir." Ji Beixuan, Ji Beishan and the others responded in a low voice, their eyes flashing with desire for the remaining treasures of the spiritual mine, and their pace involuntarily quickened a bit.
Several people quickly passed through the mine and came to a spacious stone chamber. Ji Beixuan gently pushed open the door, and a burst of excited cheers suddenly came from inside.
"Hahaha, I finally got you!" An old voice sounded, with undisguised excitement.
Ji Beixuan and others walked into the stone chamber, only to see Ji Beihe, Ji Beijiang and other high-ranking figures of the Ji family gathered there, with an expectant look on everyone's face.
"Grandpa, father..." Ji Beixuan bowed to everyone one by one, then turned his gaze to a pile of glittering ore in the center of the stone chamber, his eyes full of greed.
"Haha, yes, this is the remaining part of the spiritual mine." Ji Beihe smiled proudly, "With these treasures, our Ji family will become even more powerful."
"Yes, the operation went smoothly this time." Ji Beijiang nodded in agreement, with a satisfied smile on his face.
Ji Beixuan walked to the ore pile, carefully observing each piece of ore, secretly calculating their value in his heart. Suddenly, he found a particularly shiny crystal in the ore pile, emitting a mysterious light.
"What is this?" He picked up the crystal curiously and looked at it carefully.
"Hey, this seems to be a rare spiritual crystal." Ji Beihe walked forward, looked at the crystal and said in surprise: "It is said that this kind of spiritual crystal contains powerful spiritual power and can be used to refine high-level magic weapons or elixirs."
"Oh? That's really a pleasant surprise." A hint of surprise flashed in Ji Beixuan's eyes. He carefully put the spirit crystal into his arms, secretly thanking his good luck.
At this moment, a violent vibration suddenly came and the entire stone chamber began to shake.
"What's going on?" Ji Beihe's face changed and he asked loudly.
"Oh no, someone triggered the mechanism in the mine!" Ji Beixuan shouted in horror and looked around hurriedly for a way out.
However, before they could react, a dazzling light shot down from the top of the stone chamber, covering them all. Then, the light disappeared, and Ji Beixuan and others also disappeared.
It turned out that this was a teleportation array hidden in the mine, which teleported them to another place when triggered.
The battle instantly became intense. The fierce attack caused the walls of the mine to shake, rocks flew everywhere, and rich spiritual energy surged out like a tide.
Bang, bang, bang! Several figures entangled with each other, with spiritual energy overflowing all over their bodies, and every confrontation was accompanied by a deafening roar.
Shangguan Jiannan stood upright with sword in hand, his face solemn, his heavy breathing revealing his fatigue and anger.
"You are still far from being able to do that!" "Our strengths are not on the same level."
Chu Tianjiao moved around with ease, surrounded by spiritual energy, looking extraordinary. He also did not forget to tease his opponent, "What's more, your companions are not that good either."
He had a smile on his face, but there was a gleam in his eyes.
The screams that came from time to time echoed in the empty mine for a long time.
Boom! Another heavy blow. After the loud noise, the powerful spiritual energy spread out in a ring shape, stirring up layers of air waves. Everyone's robes rustled in the wind.
Inside the stone cave, a figure clashed fiercely with the fierce opponent on the opposite side. Every confrontation was like a contest between mountains, shocking to the heart.
The air waves created by that powerful force instantly caused low whistles to echo all around.
Amid the sound of crashing, Shidong's face was distorted, revealing unbearable pain. His sleeves burst like pieces of paper, revealing muscles as hard as steel, but in an instant, these muscles could not withstand the pressure and exploded, splattering blood everywhere.
"Come again!" Shidong just frowned slightly, as if the severe pain in his arm was just a breeze. Then he let out a wild roar and stomped the ground with his feet. In the dust, he rushed out like a cheetah and fought fiercely with his opponent again.
There was a constant, deafening roar in my ears. The two powerful forces intertwined and collided, pushing the battle to a white-hot level.
Two long swords, one red and one blue, intertwined in the air. Every collision made a heart-pounding sharp sound. The light was radiant, and no one dared to approach within a few feet around.
After the two men fought, they quickly separated. Shangguan Jiannan staggered and took several steps back before he could steady himself. His face turned red from exerting too much force.
Chu Tianjiao's voice was as cold as ice, piercing through the air: "Don't struggle anymore, I can make you suffer less."
These brief words revealed unquestionable determination and cruelty.
Give me a quick end, please? Humph, that depends on whether you have the ability to do it.
Amid the deafening roar of the explosion, an icy and chilling voice was clearly audible, as if it could penetrate all the noise.
With a loud bang, Shangguan Jiannan flicked his fingertips and a stream of blazing spiritual power erupted like a volcano, instantly distorting the surrounding air as if it was about to burn.
How dare you! Chu Tianjiao finally couldn't hold back his anger. His face was twisted with rage. He shouted angrily, and the sound waves swept around him in an instant. Dust and gravel were blown all over the sky by this force.
Then, two figures clashed fiercely in the dust and rubble like two flashes of lightning, and each collision was accompanied by a deafening roar.
The blue light and the red light intertwined, like ice and fire, and in the blink of an eye they became entangled in a ball.
Flames leapt on Shangguan Jiannan's Killing Heaven Sword, as hot as magma; while Chu Tianjiao's blue sword was chillingly cold, as if it could freeze everything.
The two extreme spiritual powers collided with each other without fear, making a sharp hissing sound, and the air was filled with the dual scent of anxiety and coldness.
However, the gap in strength was clearly revealed at this moment.
Shangguan Jiannan's red light gradually dimmed, and was eventually completely swallowed up by Chu Tianjiao's unstoppable blue light.
A sharp chill hit his face, making his heart tighten and his face instantly darken.
Damn! Shangguan Jiannan secretly thought that it was not good. He knew very well that he had an insurmountable gap with Chu Tianjiao in terms of body movement, internal strength and even moves.
Although Ye You Wuying's mental method was considered outstanding among all martial arts, it seemed so pale and powerless when facing a demon-like existence like Chu Tianjiao.
The gap in strength and the difference in spiritual power cannot be bridged at all.
