Chapter 373: Thunder and Fire Fusion Power

Chapter 373: Chapter 373: Thunder and Fire Fusion Power

"Kid, let’s see the magic at your fingertips?"

Zi Ruoxuan’s Jade Hand reached out, and a Red Long Sword materialized before her.

Knowing that she was to make a move against Ling Chen, she naturally wanted to see some of his abilities. That technique of seizing a sword through the air - she was quite keen to witness it.

Of course, this Longsword was just a low-grade Spiritual Weapon.

Even if it was taken by Ling Chen, she didn’t care much. It was just a low-grade Spiritual Weapon that she didn’t take seriously.

"Sword, come!"

Ling Chen uttered in a low shout.

"Buzz!"

The Red Long Sword immediately trembled, emitting a humming sound, as if longing to escape Zi Ruoxuan’s control.

"Want to run? Get back here!"

Zi Ruoxuan shouted coldly, a stream of purple Spiritual Power injected into it, desperately suppressing the Red Long Sword.

"Nice maneuver!"

Zi Ruoxuan’s eyes grew slightly cold.

The sword’s struggle to escape was too strong; even with her ability to control, she could only keep it from slipping from her grasp.

She couldn’t even make a move with it.

The Spiritual Power she had poured into it was sparked off by the sword, scattering in all directions.

At this moment, the Longsword in her hand seemed to come alive, as if it had its own consciousness.

"It seems I still have much room for improvement!"

Looking at Zi Ruoxuan, Ling Chen muttered to himself.

A late-stage practitioner of the Primordial Pill Realm Level Seven could forcibly suppress the Longsword; in the hands of a Level Eight, perhaps his technique would have even more limited effects.

"Whoosh!"

Zi Ruoxuan’s hand relaxed, and the Longsword instantly turned into a streak of light, shooting explosively towards Ling Chen, then made a turn and stopped in front of him.

Ling Chen touched the Red Long Sword with a finger, and the sword immediately returned to its original state, crashing down.

"Junior Ling, shall we fight it out above?"

As she spoke, Zi Ruoxuan’s Jade Foot tapped lightly, and she soared into the air, appearing dozens of meters above.

"Good!"

Ling Chen nodded, and immediately soared into the sky, standing opposite Zi Ruoxuan.

"As long as you can take this hit from me, I will admit defeat."

Zi Ruoxuan stared at Ling Chen and said smirkingly, "Junior, are you ready?"

"Of course."

Ling Chen nodded.

"Buzz!"

With a flick of his right hand in front of him, a mid-grade Spiritual Weapon appeared, emitting a light and crisp sword’s hum.

"Be careful, Junior!"

Zi Ruoxuan let out a soft shout.

On her body, two kinds of Spiritual Power converged towards her hands at the same time.

Even more astonishing was the sight of the purple Thunder Spiritual Power and the red Fire Spiritual Power starting to merge.

"Power of Fusion?"

Ling Chen’s eyes narrowed.

No wonder Zi Ruoxuan was so confident, she had mastered the Thunder and Fire Fusion Power!

She is the first Cultivator Ling Chen has seen who could merge two types of Spiritual Power!

Although Ling Wu had shown a blend of Ice and Fire Holy Power in front of everyone.

He knew that was Ling Wu’s innate Ice and Fire Holy Power.

So there truly were geniuses in this world who could merge different Spiritual Powers!

"Not bad!"

Zi Ruoxuan smirked.

This was her reliance, with this, she could contend with the top-tier practitioners with Super Spiritual Body!

Her cultivation level was late-stage Primordial Pill Realm Level Seven, and just her purple Thunder Spiritual Power alone could match a mid-stage Level Nine.

Adding the effects of the Power of Fusion, she could even match a late-stage Level Nine!

"Thunder Gang Slash!"

Zi Ruoxuan chanted inwardly, her right hand forming fingers like a sword, as the purple-red Thunder and Fire Fusion Power converging at her fingertips.

"Whoosh!"

A purple-red Sword Qi slashed towards Ling Chen like lightning.

She knew Han Jin’s strength quite well and was aware that Ling Chen had defeated Han Jin, so she didn’t hold back right from the start.

After all, she had already laid out her terms.

As long as Ling Chen could take this hit from her, she would concede defeat.

I’ll surely need to give it my all!

Ling Chen’s expression turned stern, his hands clasped behind his back, but his mind was by no means careless.

Now, having comprehended the Stellar Blade Realm, he didn’t even need to use his hands to wield his longsword or launch an attack.

The black Spiritual Power within his body burst out like crazy, forming a torrent of Spiritual Power that surged into the longsword in front of him.

Suddenly, a dazzling black light exploded forth.

"Extinguish the Stars!"

Ling Chen burst out shouting.

A black Sword Qi, incredibly sharp and fierce, shot out from the sword, slashing furiously towards his opponent.

"Boom!"

The two Sword Qis collided mid-air with a thunderous crash that resounded in all directions.

At this moment, everyone was riveted to the clash of the Sword Qis.

The two Sword Qis brutally grinded against each other, countless fragments of broken Sword Qi scattering in all directions.

"So strong!"

Ling Wu, Xu Lin, and the others all had a sharp gleam in their eyes, yearning for such power. When would they be able to reach this level?

"How is this possible?"

Zi Ruoxuan’s beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief.

This strike was her strongest attack.

Yet, looking at the current situation, Ling Chen’s attack seemed to be no less powerful than hers.

Just then, victory was decided between the two Sword Qis in the sky.

The purple-red Sword Qi destroyed the black Sword Qi, continuing its path towards Ling Chen.

However, having expended too much power, this Sword Qi was too weak.

And it was shattered by a single strike from Ling Chen.

Ling Chen, looking at the stunned Zi Ruoxuan, revealed an exceedingly radiant smile and said, "Senior Zi, I have taken your attack!"

Previously, Zi Ruoxuan had said that if he could withstand her attack, it would count as his victory.

Now, it was time to fulfill that promise.

"How is this possible? How did you do it?"

Zi Ruoxuan was full of disbelief, staring intently at Ling Chen.

There was a fourfold difference in their Spiritual Power. Even if Ling Chen had the advantage of a mid-grade Spiritual Weapon and the true intent of a Spirit Art, it still wouldn’t be enough to bridge the gap of more than four levels of Spiritual Power!

Ling Chen grinned and said, "How did I do it? That’s my secret, I’m afraid it’s not something I can disclose."

"Senior Zi, as a member of the noble Zi Family, you wouldn’t go back on your word, would you?"

His implication was clear: since a promise had been made, and now that she had lost, it was time to pay the price.

And the price?

Of course, it was half of the Cultivation Resources in her storage ring.

A young master from a family ranked within the top twenty of the Star Chart must have quite the fortune, right?

"Here you go!"

Zi Ruoxuan’s face was as cold as ice frost, tossing a storage ring over with a flick of her hand.

"Hm, not bad at all!"

After taking possession of the storage ring and checking it, Ling Chen found that it contained over a thousand high-grade Primordial Spirit Stones, which made Han Jin look like a poor chap in comparison.

Taking out five hundred high-grade Primordial Spirit Stones, Ling Chen tossed the ring back to Zi Ruoxuan.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Senior Zi!"

With a wave of his hand, Ling Chen descended from the sky, landing in the Bamboo Garden.

"You just wait, kid!"

Zi Ruoxuan was furious to death.

Initially, she was concerned about the reputation of Purple Cloud, but in an ironic twist, she not only failed to restore her pride but also lost five hundred high-grade Primordial Spirit Stones.

It was a case of losing the lady and the army.

"Senior Zi?"

Han Jin spoke up weakly from the side.

"It’s all because of you!"

Zi Ruoxuan gave Han Jin a fierce glare.

Then, she turned into a streak of light and left.

Han Jin wore a helpless look.

What did this have to do with him? It was clearly her own overconfidence.

Having the upper hand, yet making a rash promise to admit defeat upon receiving one strike.

He didn’t dare to speak these thoughts out loud, though.

He could only follow Zi Ruoxuan and leave.

He even glanced back at Ling Chen in the Bamboo Garden, thinking to himself: "Wait until my injuries are fully healed, and we’ll see how I deal with you!"
