Chapter 301: Borrowing Momentum from Heaven and Earth

Suddenly—

Within a radius of several dozen zhang centered around the two, the void became chaotic, and spiritual energy raged. The ground was in ruins, covered in billowing smoke and dust, obscuring the sun.

Su Yi stood still in mid-air, his aura vigorous, unharmed.

On the other side, Li Changning held his sword, his robes fluttering.

This strike actually resulted in a draw?

Everyone was stunned, barely able to believe their own eyes.

That sword that had transformed into a dragon-like figure was actually resolved by Su Yi, a Master-level figure?

You Xinglin's eyes widened, speechless.

It was completely unimaginable how Su Yi had managed to reach this level.

"Unfortunately, your understanding of sword intent is only superficial. And if my guess is correct, the sword intent you possess didn't originate from the natural world but was comprehended from some treasure left behind by your predecessors. It has yet to even reach the entry level, and its power is ultimately limited."

Su Yi calmly spoke.

Sword intent at the Yuan Dao level was divided into "Three Ranks and Nine Grades" based on its power.

The three ranks were Earth, Heaven, and Profound.

Earth was the lowest rank, and Profound was the highest.

Each rank was further divided into upper, middle, and lower grades.

The lowest grade of the Earth rank was the lowest level, and the highest grade of the Profound rank was the top level.

It was only when stepping onto the path of spiritual cultivation that the quality of the comprehended sword intent would rise to a completely new realm.

And the sword intent displayed by Li Changning at this moment was nothing more than a fragmentary claw, merely superficial. It hadn't even reached the entry level, and it couldn't be categorized or graded. It was even inferior to the lowest grade of the Earth rank.

"Just superficial? Killing you is enough!"

Li Changning's expression remained calm, but his aura became increasingly terrifying.

From their previous exchanges, he had realized that without using his trump card, he would probably be unable to defeat Su Yi, who seemed to be a potential body usurper.

"Oh, let's give it a try then."

Su Yi's figure flickered, resembling a wandering dragon, and once again launched a punch.

"Break!"

Li Changning's face remained calm like a deep pool without ripples. He simply brandished the Returning Yuan Sword in his hand, transforming it into a dragon-like sword intent, soaring through the air.

Boom! Boom!

The collision seemed like thunder shaking the heavens and earth, deafening. It caused the airflow to burst, and sand and rocks to fly.

Su Yi's punches were fierce and valiant, as if a divine crane dancing in the sky, striking towards the heavens.

Each punch shone like golden casting, dazzling and brilliant, with profound Dao rhymes lingering within.

Even the Supreme Martial Emperor who created the Songhe Forging Body Technique, when witnessing Su Yi's formidable presence, couldn't help but praise: "Incredibly skillful!"

However, Li Changning was not someone to be underestimated.

This Land Immortal from the Great Qin Xuan Yue Sect was far superior to Jiang He, who forcefully broke through to become a Land Immortal. His swordsmanship was truly exquisite.

With a mere gesture, he could manipulate the surrounding void, exuding a majestic and powerful dragon-like aura. His might was tremendous.

The battle between the two was like a confrontation between celestial beings transcending the mortal realm, causing the heavens and earth to tremble and the void to become chaotic.

These scenes left the onlookers in astonishment and disbelief.

"A body usurper! This guy must be a body usurper! Master-level figures in this world simply cannot possess the power to contend against a Land Immortal!" You Xinglin's expression changed, filled with resentment.

He was also shocked and unable to accept the fact that Su Yi could actually confront Li Changning.

"Come again!"

Su Yi let out a long roar, exuding an air of unruliness. This kind of opponent ignited his heroic spirit and battle intent.

Indeed, Li Changning had formidable cultivation and astonishing swordsmanship.

But Su Yi's foundation had long transcended the ordinary meaning of the term. Even if placed in the vast wilderness, he would still be considered one in a million, enough to put those peerless geniuses and monstrous evildoers to shame.

Suddenly—

No matter how Li Changning's sword intent changed, Su Yi's punches disregarded everything, shattering all obstacles. His fair and jade-like fists were like precious gems, capable of breaking through the strong and fierce sword aura with unrivaled dominance.

Bang!

During their battle, the nearby earth cracked, and countless stones exploded directly.

Fragments of stones shot out like arrows, and some Master-level figures who relied on their true energy for defense were hit by the stone fragments, causing their blood and qi to surge, almost spitting out blood.

As for those soldiers whose cultivation had not reached the Master level, they had long retreated and evaded.

The aftermath of the battle was truly terrifying, easily sweeping away the surrounding area and bringing forth deadly impacts!

In the end, in that space between heaven and earth, the figures of Su Yi and Li Changning were almost indistinguishable. All that could be seen were the golden divine crane striking through the air and the fierce battle between the white dragon and the crane. Each collision stirred up countless surging waves of energy, turning the central area of the camp into a mess.

"It's too terrifying!"

Countless people shivered with cold, their hairs standing on end.

The majority of the warriors present had never witnessed such a level of confrontation before.

The might of the battle, surpassing the nine heavens, was like that of gods engaging in combat, completely subverting their imagination!

Even characters like Shi Lanshan and You Xinglin were witnessing such an incredible duel for the first time.

The reason was that one side was a Land Immortal renowned in the Great Qin, while the other was merely a seventeen-year-old youth at the Master Triple Realm.

The two continued to fight and move, from the void to the ground. Su Yi's punches surged like raging waves, growing stronger with each clash. In the end, with a sudden bang, Li Changning's figure was violently pushed back in mid-air, his sword intent shattered by Su Yi's punch, causing him to stagger.

"Li Changning, show me your true skills. With just this level of swordsmanship, you don't even qualify to be my whetstone!" Su Yi stood proudly in the void, his eyes brimming with divine radiance.

"Is that so," Li Changning stood firmly, his appearance neither sad nor happy. Only in his eyes, there was a flicker of sharp and bright flames burning.

"The supreme sword technique I cultivate is called the 'White Dragon Nine Revolutions.' It was created by a senior sword immortal of my Xuan Yue Sect. That senior, who transformed into a white dragon, possessed extraordinary talent and incorporated a lifetime of learning into the sword. Today, I, Li Changning, will let you witness the true essence of this sword!" Li Changning spoke resolutely.

Boom! A resolute and unyielding sword intent surged from his slender body. In the next moment, his Guiyuan Sword rose, and he moved with the sword, transforming into a tens of zhang long white sword rainbow.

The white sword rainbow instantly transformed into nine magnificent variations, emanating nine unique and mysterious powers. There were raging winds and thunder, fierce heavenly fires, swirling death mists, and arcing electric currents...

All these transformations merged within this single sword, instantly elevating its might to a terrifying level.

"Slash!" Li Changning shouted loudly as he fiercely struck down with his sword. The immense sword intent surpassed the previous strike, especially with the sword energy radiating in all directions, increasing its power dramatically.

"Well done," Su Yi's black hair fluttered, his long robe billowed, as he unleashed a plain punch.

This punch was ordinary, without any hint of fireworks, simple and natural. But when this punch was thrown, the heavens and earth shook violently.

Boom! Everyone felt as if they were struck by lightning, feeling extremely uncomfortable, almost coughing up blood. They were overwhelmed by the force of the punch!

Since the Qi Gathering Realm, Su Yi had tempered his body with Dao Gang, comprehending a trace of the Dao's charm. When this punch was thrown, it seemed to encompass the great momentum of the world.

This punch had no name, but if one were to call it something, it could be called the 'Dao Fist'!

Under this punch, despite Li Changning's nine-transformed sword radiance, it was still crushed in mid-air by Su Yi's unremarkable punch!

Boom!

A loud explosion echoed through the air.

The sword qi unleashed by Li Changning shattered in the void, resembling an avalanche, causing a blizzard of white light to sweep across the sky.

Following that, Li Changning's figure was struck by the force of the punch, violently propelled back dozens of zhang.

When he regained his balance, his clothes were torn, his hair disheveled, and his complexion had turned pale. Uncontrolled bloodstains dripped from the corner of his lips.

Defeated... He was defeated?

Everyone was dumbfounded, on the verge of going crazy.

That was a Land Immortal, an incredibly transcendent existence!

But ever since the beginning of this duel, it was the young Su Yi, a Triple Grandmaster, who had revealed an even more terrifying strength, hardly giving Li Changning any advantage.

Especially now, Su Yi's unmatched punch had shaken Li Changning and caused him to be injured!

The might of this punch also shocked the entire scene, making everyone's hair stand on end, as if they were plunged into an icy cave.

What kind of unimaginable and terrifying power must be hidden for such a punch, which seized all opportunities, to be unleashed?

"Su Yi, regardless of whether you are a body possessor, being able to achieve such an astounding cultivation at the Grandmaster Realm is enough to be considered an unparalleled genius of unprecedented brilliance. Even the martial arts you master transcend the mundane, conforming to the Dao, truly godlike," Li Changning wiped away the bloodstains from his lips, his voice hoarse. His face showed no signs of despair; instead, his gaze grew even sharper as he shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, you are not a Land Immortal after all. Today, you are destined to die here."

As he spoke, he tossed aside his Guiyuan Sword.

Clang!

The sword resonated like thunder.

Li Changning stood still in the void as the Guiyuan Sword spun above him. The surrounding vitality of heaven and earth, spanning for several li, gradually responded as if being drawn, converging towards him like a storm.

Crack!

The previously clear sky suddenly flashed with thunder and lightning.

The immense power of heaven and earth within several li was vast and far beyond the control of ordinary martial practitioners.

Visible to the naked eye, Li Changning's complexion grew increasingly pale. Beads of sweat formed on his temples and forehead, yet he remained oblivious, completely focusing his mind on manipulating the forces of heaven and earth.

"This is..."

Everyone instinctively looked up, sensing the drastic changes in the sky. An invisible aura of oppression and destruction spread throughout the void, evoking a sense of fear and insignificance when facing the might of the heavens.

"The weather is changing?"

On the side of the Fuyun Mountain Range, Xiao Tianque, who had been waiting in the distant camp of the Moyun Army, was suddenly startled. He abruptly turned his gaze towards the sky.

From all directions, the vast and mighty elemental forces of heaven and earth, like a storm, crushed the void and surged fiercely towards the camp of the Moyun Army.

The rocks and vegetation on the ground trembled, and sand and stones flew.

The drastic change made Xiao Tianque shiver. What... What kind of terrifying power was this?

At the same time, Su Yi narrowed his eyes and a hint of surprise curved his lips.

Naturally, he could tell that Li Changning had employed a secret technique, using his own vitality and spirit to command the power of the heavens and earth.

He was borrowing the momentum from the heavens and earth, seeking to wield the power of the universe with his own strength.

"Interesting," Su Yi's robe fluttered as his profound gaze became as sharp as a sword. "I want to see how much power you can borrow after exerting everything you have with your Nascent Opening cultivation..."
