Die!

While Qin Xiu was rushing toward Zhou Yun's cave, Zhou Yun was sitting cross-legged in his own cave.

Zhou Yun wasn't cultivating. Instead, he started to practice his swordsmanship. He wanted to try something new.

He began to practice according to the sword techniques in the book. At the beginning, because he was not familiar with it, he wielded the sword very slowly.

However, after he practiced it a few times, he was able to wield the sword faster and faster.

Finally, after a burst of light, the world before his eyes began to change. Everything was slowly fading away.

After a few seconds, the sword in his hand was the only thing in his eyes.

Unknowingly, Zhou Yun had already entered a state of enlightenment!

He looked at the sword in his hand and wielded it gently. The sword immediately emitted a kind of sword intent like the sunset. It was poignant and sad, but it also carried a sense of danger.

"Oh, I see! Is this sword intent?"

In just a moment, Zhou Yun immediately comprehended the sword intent of the sun-set sword technique!

"It's just a beginning. I still need more practice."

Zhou Yun's speed of cultivating swordsmanship slowed down once again. He began to learn and cultivate the moves one by one.

At this moment, he was wielding the sword very slowly, and it didn't seem offensive at all.

However, every time he wielded the sword in his hand, there would be a poignant and sorrowful sword intent.

It didn't look aggressive, but it gave off a very dangerous feeling.

"I've made great progress in my swordsmanship!"

Zhou Yun's eyes glowed with joy. As he laughed, his eyes gradually sharpened, as if there was a flame dancing in them!

Knock, knock, knock.

With a series of shouts and knocks, Zhou Yun's surroundings gradually changed and he slowly returned to reality.

There was a trace of displeasure in Zhou Yun's eyes. Just now, he had already cultivated the sun-set sword technique to the great stage and was about to continue cultivating. However Qin Xiu's shout and knock directly drag him out of his enlightenment.

Hearing Qin Xiu's increasingly excessive provocation, Zhou Yun started to look a little bit angry.

"I'll set you an example for people."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yun stood up from the jade stone that he had been cultivating on. He trembled suddenly and made a crackling sound, which was like frying beans.

He walked to the entrance of the cave and gave it a light push. The huge stone door immediately opened.

The moment the door opened, Zhou Yun was shocked.

Because of Qin Xiu's various provocative shouts, there were a lot of onlookers.

As time passed, the people who gathered around now were even more than those who had gathered at the Alchemy Pavilion a few days ago.

"Zhou Yun, you've finally come out!"

Qin Xiu looked at Zhou Yun, who walked out of the cave, with a cold smile on his face.

"Since you've come out, let's go to the arena to fight now! I want to see what makes you think you can steal my spot with your strength!"

Qin Xiu said and turned to walk back. Today, he wanted to let Zhou Yun pay for what he had done.

"There's no need to go to the arena. Let's fight here. It won't take long anyway!"

"What?"

Qin Xiu thought he had heard wrong. He only came back to his senses after the person beside him repeated Zhou Yun's words.

At this moment, he once again examined Zhou Yun. He suddenly realized that Zhou Yun had already broken through to the eighth layer of Qi cultivation.

A few days ago, Zhou Yun was still at the fifth layer of Qi cultivation.

When did he break through again?

Qin Xiu was a little shocked, but then he sneered.

Zhou Yun's cultivation must be very unstable for him to break through so many times in such a short period of time. Qin Xiu thought Zhun Yun wanted to fight him with this forcibly raised cultivation. He did not think Zhou Yun was able to beat him at all.

"The eighth layer of Qi cultivation, huh? Is this the reason you dared to steal my spot?"

"I took your spot with nothing else but my own strength!" Zhou Yun looked at the sneering Qin Xiu and shook his head.

"Ha ha, your own strength? Do you really think you can beat me with your own strength?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Xiu directly looked up and laughed as if he had heard a very hilarious joke.

When the others heard Zhou Yun's words, they also shook their heads. There was still quite a big gap between the eighth and ninth layers of Qi cultivation. Zhou Yun was too arrogant.

Zhou Yun's eyes flashed then he said indifferently, "You're not qualified to fight with me!"

As soon as he said that, everyone present was shocked.

"I didn't hear wrong, did I? Zhou Yun said that senior brother Qin Xiu is not qualified to fight with him?"

The surrounding crowd's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. There was still quite a big gap between the eighth and ninth layers of Qi cultivation. Zhou Yun was too arrogant.

"Are you crazy?" Qin Xiu was also stunned.

Then, he laughed again. "Then I'll let you see if I'm qualified or not!"

After he finished speaking, his body suddenly shook and the strength of a ninth-layer Qi cultivator was instantly released. The spiritual Qi around him wildly scattered in all directions. Seeing this scene, the surrounding people hurriedly retreated dozens of meters to avoid being affected.

"Zhou Yun, die!"

Qin Xiu shouted and rushed directly at Zhou Yun.

Ji ha and Jiang Qian were also in the crowd. Both of them looked serious.

"Zhou Yun is probably doomed. Qin Xiu's cultivation layer is already at the peak of the ninth layer of Qi cultivation. One more step and he'll be in the foundation establishment stage. How can Zhou Yun fight against him?"

In the blink of an eye, Qin Xiu had already arrived in front of Zhou Yun. His fist, which contained a huge amount of energy, suddenly blasted toward Zhou Yun's chest.

This punch contained all the strength in his body, and it could even shatter a diamond.

Everyone began to worry for Zhou Yun. Qin Xiu's punch was a full-force blow with rage. Even a cultivator of the peak ninth layer of Qi cultivation would not dare to take the punch easily.

At this moment, Zhou Yun was still standing there, as if he had not reacted.

Upon seeing this, everyone around closed their eyes. They could already see Zhou Yun's chest caved in, his ribs broken, and his body severely injured.

At this moment, Zhou Yun finally moved. He raised his right hand and stretched out his index finger. Then, he drew a line in front of him. An extremely terrifying force came from Zhou Yun's finger. It was several times stronger than Qin Xiu's punch.

In an instant, the color of the whole world changed. The power contained in Zhou Yun's fingertips seemed to be able to cut the world apart.

"Oh, shoot!"

Qin Xiu was extremely vigilant at that time. Feeling the terrifying power contained in Zhou Yun's fingertips, Qin Xiu quickly retracted his fist and wrapped his arms around his chest.

Bang!

There was a loud bang, and a figure flew out backward, only stopping when he smashed into a huge rock.

When the dust settled, everyone was shocked and gasped. Ji ha and Jiang Qian even fell to the ground.

It was as if a sharp blade had cut through Qin Xiu's chest. From the left to the right, there was a huge wound that even the bones inside could be vaguely seen.

"How is that possible?"

At this moment, no one dared to speak. Zhou Yun had only used his fingertips to cause such great damage to Qin Xiu. If he had used a sword, Qin Xiu would have been split in half.

"When did you comprehend the sword intent?"

Qin Xiu was lying on the ground, and blood filled his mouth and nose. Earlier, he had sensed an extremely powerful sword intent from Zhou Yun's fingertip. The power contained in this sword intent was even more powerful than his punch.

Zhou Yun was very calm.

"Just before you came."
