Chapter 241
All the changes were under the control of the behind-the-scenes boss - Long Qiqi.
When Li Shiyin walked onto the No. 5 debating stage with the No. 5 identity token, and saw that her opponent was indeed Yan Tianxing, she secretly admired Long Qiqi even more in her heart, and subconsciously placed Long Qiqi's intelligence above that of her master's.
"Dan Peak, Li Shiyin." She bowed with her sword towards the other side.
Seeing that Yan Tianxing had a solemn expression, Li Shiyin was very happy in her heart.
Because Yan Tianxing obviously didn't know that his opponent today was her, while she, Li Shiyin, was clearly aware of this. Her little Lolita was very capable and had thoroughly researched Yan Tianxing.
It could be said that before fighting today, she had already won 30% ahead.
Yan Tianxing, now thirty-two years old, looked dignified, with a tall and straight figure, and a face full of righteousness. When he was ten years old, he was brought into Daosword Sect's Qi Peak by his master He Daoguang to cultivate the "Heavenly Heart Five Thunders Orthodoxy". A month later, during a thunderstorm night, he laid his foundation. Then, ten years later, he formed his core. Now at thirty-two, he was at the late Golden Core stage.
"Qi Peak, Yan Tianxing!" Yan Tianxing didn't fail to live up to his good looks. His behavior exhibited generosity and grandeur.
Looking at the peerless beauty opposite him from Dan Peak, and recalling her prominence in recent years, he knew that although this junior sister's cultivation level was not high, her actual strength was formidable, and it would be easy to lose to her.
After paying respects, Li Shiyin drew out her Cherished Star Sword. Her big, almond-shaped eyes condensed slightly as she activated her spiritual eye divine ability, staring at Yan Tianxing and waiting for him to reveal flaws.
She recalled in her mind the relevant knowledge about the "Heavenly Heart Five Thunders Orthodoxy". The so-called Five Thunders were the five types of orthodox thunders evolved by the Great Dao when heaven and earth first opened - Heavenly Thunder, Divine Thunder, Dragon Thunder, Water Thunder and Sheling Thunder. These five thunders also belonged to the five elements. If one could fully cultivate all five thunders, one would be able to evolve myriads of things with thunder.
It was said that the tribulation thunders faced by cultivators when overcoming tribulations belonged to the Heavenly Thunder of the Five Thunders Orthodoxy.
Cultivating the Five Thunders Orthodoxy was like alchemists gathering "cinnabar fire" and "cinnabar water". It involved gathering the orthodox thunders between heaven and earth and storing them in the dantian to cultivate.
According to the intelligence gathered by Long Qiqi: Yan Tianxing had currently cultivated three types of orthodox thunders - Heavenly Thunder, Dragon Thunder and Water Thunder. Among them, the Dragon Thunder was cultivated after he absorbed the true dragon's qi during and after the Devouring Demon Willow incident.
His strength was extremely terrifying. After Huang Feiyu left Daosword Sect, it was him who had taken the fifth spot on the Geniuses Ranking.
Li Shiyin stood with her sword, the stellar sword qi around her concealed and not yet emitted. She stared at Yan Tianxing, not daring to move rashly, waiting quietly for Yan Tianxing's flaws.
Yan Tianxing stood opposite her with a relaxed posture and a faint smile, slowly circulating his spiritual power, bringing out thunder like water, which flowed out from his body, spilling to the ground, and slowly spreading towards Li Shiyin on the debating stage.
"Dan Peak Sword Immortal versus Qi Peak Five Thunders Orthodoxy, is this the first genius showdown so far in this assessment?!" someone asked.
"Yes..." someone answered, "But it looks like my Sword Immortal is being suppressed! As expected, there is still a huge gap between fifth and tenth place."
"What do you mean your Sword Immortal? That's my Sword Devil!"
"Speaking of which, they're really unlucky. If they lose, their sect's ranking will instantly drop outside the top 50."
"That's right. Needless to say if they lose, even if they win, they'll definitely be forced to reveal many of their trump cards. Revealing trump cards so early will make it very difficult in subsequent assessments."
"Of course, no matter what, I still support our Sword Immortal!!" an irrational fan shouted without reading the atmosphere. "Shiyin, go for it! Shiyin, go for it!!"
"Heh! Go for it? I see Li Shiyin can't even get through this first wave of Kan Water Yin Thunder..."
Although Li Shiyin had a small number of extreme irrational fans, at this moment the spectators mostly favored Yan Tianxing.
Especially since, right from the start, Li Shiyin was obviously being completely suppressed.
"As expected, he went with the Kan Water Yin Thunder first move..." The yin thunder on the ground slowly flowed towards her like water. Li Shiyin still felt some pressure after all. "He knows how formidable my spiritual eye divine ability is, doesn't dare to rashly use more powerful moves, afraid of revealing flaws. He's just steadily suppressing me."
"Truly formidable!" she thought to herself. "Not revealing any flaws at all..."
"Fortunately, we simulated this many times, it's still within expectations."
"Steady suppression by momentum. I'll just have to break his momentum and give him enough pressure to force out his flaws!" Li Shiyin thought to herself. "Does he think I only know how to assassinate with Celestial Fairy Asking the Way..."
Seeing the yin thunder coming even closer, Li Shiyin no longer waited passively. Her left hand stretched out, stars lighting up between her slender, onion-root-like fingers.
"Like steady suppression?" She raised her palm to point at Yan Tianxing, the corners of her lips coldly curved. "Then taste my Bladestorm!"
In a flash, three dream-like beautiful nebulae appeared in her palm. As she pointed her palm at Yan Tianxing, those nebulae lit up...
"Whoosh... Whoosh..."
In an instant, countless gorgeous purple stellar sword qi shot towards Yan Tianxing!
"Sword qi rain!" Yan Tianxing's heart jerked. He didn't expect Li Shiyin's comprehension of sword qi to have reached this level.
The Four Levels of Raising Weight as Light as a Feather was Lu Junxing's understanding of the realms of sword qi, while others obviously also had their own understandings.
Yan Tianxing's divine sense stirred. The yin thunder on the ground quickly stood up to intercept Li Shiyin's sword qi rain.
"Still not enough..." Although Yan Tianxing was already on the defensive instead of pressing forward, this sword qi rain apparently hadn't reached his limit yet. He still didn't reveal any flaws, vigilantly guarding against Li Shiyin. Li Shiyin didn't dare approach.
"Then this lady will bestow you with a few more Dream Fantasy Nebulae!" More nebulae gathered in her hand, mixed with the sword qi rain, and smashed towards Yan Tianxing.
"What is that?" Seeing those star-like beads flying over not in the form of sword qi but like balls being thrown, Yan Tianxing instantly had a bad premonition. He hurriedly fully outputted the Kan Water Yin Thunder, while secretly gathering Heavenly Thunder...
Sure enough, as expected, when those three bead-like nebulae got near, they explosively detonated. Innumerable stellar sword qi splashed outwards. The terrifying shockwave carrying sword qi directly burst through the barricade formed by the Kan Water Yin Thunder!
The exploded sword qi went out of control, randomly shooting everywhere above and below the stage. The referees on the debating stage immediately activated the protective barrier around it to prevent the sword qi from injuring spectators.
Whoosh—
The moment the Kan Water Yin Thunder barrier broke, the Cherished Star Sword finally left its sheath. Stars glittered around Li Shiyin's body, her entire person flickering in place, her figure invisible. One could only know that she would activate her movement technique and disappear the next second.
Yan Tianxing understood Li Shiyin's ghostly movement technique. At this moment, he finally felt a sense of crisis...
"Heavenly Thunder - Yin Wind Quake!"
Without time to continue arranging the Kan Water Yin Thunder formation, he loudly shouted. Abruptly, a wind aura arose from him, madly blasting towards Li Shiyin.
But that wasn't wind, it was wind formed from thunder, blowing up not wind, but dense Heavenly Thunder.
The entire debating stage was filled with Heavenly Thunder. That Heavenly Thunder rampaged like a violent wind, overwhelming everything as it pressed down, its momentum truly frightening.
Li Shiyin knew its might, but her cold eyes finally revealed a hint of a smile.
To make a move meant revealing flaws! By counterattacking, Yan Tianxing had finally revealed flaws!
Her flickering figure, under the blow of the Heavenly Thunder gale, suddenly disappeared...
When she reappeared, she was already behind Yan Tianxing!
"It's over..." She smiled at the corners of her lips. Clean and decisive, without any hesitation, she stabbed out with her sword!
However...
At this moment, a sudden dragon roar rang out from nowhere!
That Yan Tianxing abruptly looked back. Staring at Li Shiyin's stabbing Cherished Star Sword, he loudly laughed. "You've fallen into my trap!!!"
Golden light greatly shone as an enormous golden dragon head drilled out from his body, crashing towards Li Shiyin's Cherished Star Sword...
