Chapter 109: Chapter 109: Clearing Again (3rd Update)

Song Qingshan and nine other core disciples, as well as the outer palace disciples, immediately turned their gazes towards Su Qingyun.

Who else could Ling Chen be referring to, if not Su Qingyun?

Feeling the eyes of the crowd cast upon him, Su Qingyun’s face darkened to the extreme as he gritted his teeth and said, "Ling Chen, stop spouting nonsense here. If you have the guts, dare you fight me?"

Now having advanced to the initial phase of the Spirit Sea Realm Sixfold, and having cultivated superior Attack Profound Spirit Techniques and Body Technique Xuanling Techniques, even the common Cultivators of the Spirit Sea Realm Sevenfold were no match for him!

At this moment, the superior Xuanling Techniques possessed by Ling Chen held no advantage in front of him!

The strength of the two could almost be completely determined by their Spiritual Power alone!

Previously, the Palace Master had said that Ling Chen’s cultivation level was at the late phase of the Spirit Sea Realm Fivefold, one level lower than his own, impossible to be his match!

"Not dare!"

Ling Chen smiled indifferently: "What’s the point of fighting a genius like you when it doesn’t decide life and death? Unless, you invite me to a life-and-death battle on the stage, then I might reluctantly agree."

"Life-and-death stage?!"

The faces of countless disciples turned solemn.

Ling Chen was so fierce as to directly propose a life and death duel with Su Qingyun on the life-and-death stage!

Hearing these three daunting words, Su Qingyun was shaken.

Although he was confident in himself, the legends of the life-and-death stage were too terrifying, and he couldn’t help but hesitate.

He possessed the Golden Spirit Body, and was certain to become a strong figure in the Primordial Pill Realm in the future, even the Palace Mansion Realm was within reach! There was no need to fight Ling Chen, who had no talent, to a life-and-death struggle.

"How about it? Don’t dare?"

Ling Chen’s mouth curled up with a hint of scorn.

"You!"

Su Qingyun was so furious that he gritted his teeth.

Feeling the increasingly dismissive gaze of the crowd, Su Qingyun’s eyes condensed as he coldly said, "As you wish, three days from now, on the life-and-death stage, we’ll settle this once and for all!"

"Good!"

Ling Chen nodded lightly.

Seeing the two set the terms of the life-and-death stage in just a few words, everyone was shocked.

"Impossible!"

Both Divine Thought Hall Master Gu Qingyang and the Black Robed Elder spoke at the same time.

Gu Qingyang was worried about Ling Chen.

This was a Divine Thought Master genius!

In recent years, there simply weren’t any Divine Thought Master geniuses to be found, and if he really couldn’t find one, he could have Ling Chen fill in the gap, and that would be enough to keep his position as Hall Master.

Moreover, Ling Chen was not just any Divine Thought Master genius, he was already an intermediate-level Divine Thought Master.

The Black Robed Elder was worried about Su Qingyun.

In these last three months, he had seen Su Qingyun’s talent and effort.

Such a genius, he did not wish for Su Qingyun to have any mishaps.

"I’ve made up my mind!"

Su Qingyun said coldly.

No matter what, he wanted to fight Ling Chen and wash away his own humiliation with the latter’s life!

Ling Chen then said, "Elders, this agreement on the life-and-death stage seems not to require your consent, right? As long as the two of us agree, that’s enough."

Seeing both being so adamant, Gu Qingyang and the Black Robed Elder both revealed a bitter smile.

Ling Chen was right; the life-and-death stage didn’t need their approval!

"See you at the life-and-death stage in three days!"

Ling Chen looked towards Su Qingyun.

"Good!"

Su Qingyun nodded.

Half an hour later, all nine soldiers were fully repaired.

The Black Robed Elder said, "Due to the problem with the soldiers earlier, everyone needs to go through the assessment again!"

Soon, the ten core disciples’ assessment was completed.

Their performance was the same as before.

"Next, Ling Chen!"

The Black Robed Elder said coldly.

Previously, the agreement between Ling Chen and Su Qingyun for a life-and-death stage had made him hold no good feelings towards Ling Chen.

Ling Chen was indifferent to the Black Robed Elder’s attitude.

"Boom!"

He entered the True Martial Tower, and the tower gate slammed shut.

Immediately, a soldier charged towards Ling Chen.

"Scram!"

Ling Chen let out a cold snort, and Spiritual Power surged out from within his body, converging on his right hand as he threw out a punch.

"Boom!"

Ling Chen’s fist collided with the Soldier’s, sending the latter flying ten zhang away.

Following that, Ling Chen stepped into the second level.

"Boom!"

Again, with a single move, the Soldier was blasted away.

The third level.

The fourth level.

The fifth level.

The sixth level.

Not a single Soldier could withstand a strike from Ling Chen.

In merely sixty breaths’ time, Ling Chen had charged into the seventh level.

"What incredible speed!"

Outside the True Martial Tower, countless eyes turned toward the seventh level.

Ling Chen’s speed was no less than Su Qingyun’s.

The seventh level.

This Soldier’s cultivation was comparable to the late seventh layer of the Spirit Sea Realm, capable of using superior Attack Profound Spirit Techniques!

"Wu Kong!"

Ling Chen drew his inferior Spiritual Weapon and unleashed a superior Attack Profound Spirit Technique, sending a piercing Sword Qi towards the Soldier’s fist.

"Boom!"

The piercing Sword Qi sent the Soldier reeling back several zhang.

His Spiritual Power was comparable to the early seventh layer of the Spirit Sea Realm, and with the amplification of an inferior Spiritual Weapon, it was only natural that a single strike would defeat the seventh-stage Soldier.

After defeating the seventh-stage Soldier, Ling Chen once again deployed Divine Soul Telekinesis, destroying the Soldier’s Spirit Transformation Array.

"The eighth level!"

Ling Chen ascended to the eighth level, charging at the eighth-stage Soldier.

This time, he sheathed his Longsword, choosing to fight the eighth-stage Soldier with his fists.

"Netherworld Seal!"

Ling Chen burst out shouting, his Spiritual Power sweeping out as a black Square Seal condensed in his hand, then swelled into a three-zhang large Square Seal, hurtling towards the eighth-stage Soldier!

"Boom!"

The Netherworld Seal slammed hard into the eighth-stage Soldier, blasting him several zhang away.

An eighth-stage Soldier is comparable to a late-eighth layer Spirit Sea Realm Cultivator, capable of executing superior Attack and Body Technique Xuanling Techniques.

But under Ling Chen’s Heavenly Spirit Technique, it stood no chance at all!

Defeated in a single blow!

Ling Chen once again moved, employing Divine Soul Telekinesis to shatter the eighth-stage Soldier’s Spirit Transformation Array.

Even though he could defeat the eighth-stage Soldier, Ling Chen did not wish to reveal this to others.

Next, instead of progressing to the ninth level, Ling Chen first took out a superior Spirit Revitalizing Pill to completely restore his Spiritual Power before heading towards the ninth level.

"The ninth level!"

Ling Chen arrived at the ninth level.

A ninth-stage Soldier on the ninth level is equivalent in strength to a late-ninth layer Spirit Sea Realm powerhouse, naturally also skilled in superior Attack and Body Technique Xuanling Techniques.

Ling Chen’s Spiritual Power was only comparable to an early seventh layer Spirit Sea Realm, a gap of two and a half layers.

Even using the Netherworld Seal, an inferior Heavenly Spirit Technique, might not guarantee victory.

Moreover, a ninth-stage Soldier could execute superior Body Technique Xuanling Techniques, completely overpowering him in speed.

"Chasing Stars, Stepping on Moon!"

The moment the ninth-stage Soldier disappeared from its spot, Ling Chen hurriedly used an inferior Body Technique Heavenly Spirit Technique to dodge to the side.

"Boom!"

The ninth-stage Soldier’s fist smashed right where Ling Chen had been standing.

In terms of speed, only by using the inferior Body Technique Heavenly Spirit Technique could Ling Chen barely keep up with the ninth-stage Soldier.

"Heavenly Slash!"

Wielding an inferior Spiritual Weapon, Ling Chen utilized Divine Soul Telekinesis to predict the Soldier’s next position. After dodging the ninth-stage Soldier’s attack with Chasing Stars, Stepping on Moon, he unleashed an immensely terrifying Sword Qi that struck the Soldier’s back.

"Clang Clang!"

The ninth-stage Soldier staggered forward, taking several steps before stabilizing.

Then, it ignored Ling Chen and returned to the center of the True Martial Tower’s ninth level.

"Passed."

Ling Chen exhaled deeply, a hint of joy on his face.

He had nearly exhausted all his Spiritual Power while continuously using the inferior Heavenly Spirit Technique!

Unlike last time, he defeated the ninth-stage Soldier with his true strength!
