Chapter 188: Mountains and Rivers
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
King Duan and Han Zhangfeng did not think of this. The Ninth Prince was also equally confused.
Even Fang Zhengzhi did not know what was going on.
No one had ever had a similar experience. As such, there was no record of it in history.
But he had some idea.
In the World of the Sage, Fang Zhengzhi saw Su Donglin’s expression and knew that he was just as powerful as Su Donglin in this aspect.
This came as a pleasant surprise.
More surprisingly, he felt like he still had energy in reserve.
A such, he continued to exert his suppression over Su Donglin. Little by little, his electric field began to suppress Su Donglin’s.
Su Donglin started to sweat.
This was such a domineering electric field. He did not want to go down like this.
He could not take this.
As someone who had already spent a few years in the Heavenly Reflection Realm, he felt that he had to go down with a fight.
How can he be suppressed by someone who had broke through barely two months ago?
That would be immensely humiliating?!
All of the other candidates were going crazy. They had thought that Su Donglin was not giving it his all when Fang Zhengzhi matched him previously.
But now...
Su Donglin was being suppressed by Fang Zhengzhi? He looked like he was losing ground, and his sweat did not look fake at all.
"Fang Zhengzhi is suppressing Su Donglin?!"
"How is that possible, he just broke through recently!"
"Elementary and advanced stages... there are two rungs of difference?! What is going on?"
All of the candidates looked at each other in confusion. Then, they looked at Fang Zhengzhi with awe and fear.
He was really a demon.
Wang Chuanping felt the suppression from Fang Zhengzhi’s field and completely forgot to help.
Ping Yang also stopped moving.
She had always thought that she was the key to winning this battle.
The last time, she did not wear her Red Flame Flower Armor and did not wield her Blazing Qilin Spear. She was subdued as a result.
However, she had never expected that result.
As such, she decided to come take her revenge, armed to the teeth this time.
But now...
It would seem that revenge would be hard fought.
Yan Xiu had always trusted Fang Zhengzhi’s abilities. After Fang Zhengzhi had taught him the theory, it was almost as if he saw a glimmer of light in the dark.
He was at the peak of the Star Conglomerate Realm at 16. His talent was unquestionable.
With Fang Zhengzhi’s direction, together with more than a decade of knowledge, he trained hard. He had spent the past two months trying and breaking through, and he finally made it a day ago.
He had told this to Fang Zhengzhi.
He had thought that he would be on the same starting line as Fang Zhengzhi once again, but now, it seemed like Fang Zhengzhi had given him nothing but dust to bite.
He was able to go even with Su Dongping, even suppressing Su Dongping.
Did Fang Zhengzhi manage to reach the advanced stages of the Heavenly Reflection State in two months? Or... the pinnacle?!
This was not something people wanted to think about, or know the answer to.
However, Yan Xiu did not find this hard to accept. He would just be in awe if that was the case.
Everyone looked at Fang Zhengzhi in disbelief.
Fang Zhengzhi himself was in disbelief. Why is Su Donglin so weak? Where is the power of the advanced Heavenly Reflection State?
Show it to me!
Hiding it?
Okay then, if you want to hide it in a 4v1, then I will kill you!
Fang Zhengzhi drew his sword. This was a white jade sword. Even though it was not as powerful as Ping Yang’s Blazing Qilin Spear, it was not bad.
"Mountains and Rivers!" Fang Zhengzhi said softly.
Then, the white jade sword rang out with the thunderous boom, its blade glimmering. Then, a mountainous suppressive force crashed towards the ground. A silver light pierced the shadow and landed on the tip of the sword.
At this point, there was the sound of flowing water.
Su Donglin was in utter disbelief. He actually felt like there was a mountain holding him down and the silver light was like a waterfall.
Dripping water could pierce a rock. In fact, it could even pierce steel.
This was one of the sword techniques that Fang Zhengzhi learnt in the Heavenly Treasure Hall. It had no name, so he came up with his own.
Rainbow White Light.
Su Donglin was suppressed by this mountainous energy and had no way of dodging. He could only meet the attack head on.
The Shadow Blade Technique hummed as it burst through the air.
The two incredibly sharp blades impacted each other.
The white blade from the top, the shadow blade from the bottom.
"Boom!"
The impact from the two electric fields, as well as the contact between the blades, caused an immense energy field which blew everyone backwards.
The calm after the storm.
It was completely silent.
Su Donglin looked in horror at his own blade. There was a hole in the blade, a clean hole that wasn’t there before.
A blade destroying another?!
Su Donglin looked at Fang Zhengzhi in disbelief.
Fang Zhengzhi’s previous tie with him could be forgotten. After all, as long as two people were in the same cultivation realm, it could happen.
But...
Why would his family’s top technique lose to Fang Zhengzhi’s ‘Mountain and Water’ blade?
No one had even heard of that technique!
Fang Zhengzhi did not look at Su Donglin, looking at his sword instead.
The white jade sword continued to glow with light. However, when the two blades collided, he felt as if he could not use all his energy.
It was almost as if the blade would break if he used all his energy.
The mountain and water technique was incredibly domineering. Any technique formulated by battle was definitely powerful, but the white jade sword was definitely not as powerful.
Both of them were incredulous.
All of the candidates were stunned.
In the clash, Fang Zhengzhi had come out on top.
The two month Heavenly Reflection hillbilly.
He actually managed to match the heir of the Su Clan evenly in the manipulation of fields. Then, in a battle of blades, he actually came out on top?!
What is this... f*ck us all!
Yan Xiu was stunned. But, he was more taken aback by the familiarity of Fang Zhengzhi’s technique. It felt as if it was from the...
Ice Wall!
The ice wall in the Heavenly Treasure Hall!
Did Fang Zhengzhi really understand the sword techniques? Mountain and water... Yan Xiu searched his mind. He had understood some of it.
But it was rather blurry.
His memory was jolted when Fang Zhengzhi used the technique in real life. This allowed him a slightly deeper understanding.
Wang Chuanping was on the verge of breaking down.
When he had first entered the World of the Saint, he had thought of how to defeat Fang Zhengzhi and use that to get to the top.
But now...
That looked like courting death.
Ping Yang’s eyes glowed. No matter what, Fang Zhengzhi’s ‘Mountain and Water’ technique looked quite manly and domineering.
Just as she was about to compliment him, she realized Fang Zhengzhi was looking at her.
He looked like he was looking at a lamb.
She recalled what had happened previously and blushed. Just at this point, a voice rang out.
"Hi, can I borrow your Blazing Qilin Spear for fun?"
