Chapter 697: 336 Battle of the Candle Sect! (5.2k)_3

But, even so, the few rounds of exchange just now between both sides.

Already made the other contestants unable to even come close.

Only Canaan could remain composed.

Bai Xiao’s Eight-Span Red Kite Step combined with the Dragon Spine Cloud Breaking Skill perfectly melded strength and speed, forming a breathtaking combat pattern. If his opponent were not from the Candle Sect, he would have quickly defeated them and secured victory. As for the Candle Sect, they astonishingly brought out four or five first-rank or nearly first-rank Secret Martial Skills in a short time, demonstrating unfathomable depth.

The warm-up between both sides seemed as if they already outclassed most of the contestants.

"This feeling, practically any of the contestants going up and fighting either one of them is just cannon fodder! The gap is too big..."

A spectator revealed a look of shock.

"Why does it seem like neither of them is using their full strength, is it probing?"

Someone frowned as they spoke.

On the arena.

"Interesting..."

The Candle Sect practitioner gently swept their right hand, lifting the hem of their battle robe backward. The black-and-red long robe flapped intensely like a cape in the fierce wind.

"Heh heh, intriguing~"

Bai Xiao twisted his neck, the bones cracking, and the muscles on his back compressed and closed at an astonishing speed, causing the wounds to stop bleeding.

The first phase ended.

The second phase, here it comes!

"I can feel that you have Horizontal Training on you too, otherwise, my Water Bird Soaring wouldn’t be so weak. What is that Horizontal Training called?"

Bai Xiao spoke while his body began to swell. His platinum-colored combat suit instantly burst apart, revealing a body as pale as stone beneath.

His muscle contours were comparable to a ferocious dragon, with rugged lines, ancient and heavy. A sense of rampant savageness and heavy might permeated, making one’s heart tremble.

"Wrong, it’s two techniques."

The Candle Sect practitioner revolved cyclones around both hands, the surface of his body surprisingly emanated abundant Qi-Blood. Facing Bai Xiao, he closed his eyes and stepped forward slowly.

"Called..."

"’Standing Buddha’ ’Eight Directions Unmoving’!"

In an instant, an aura as magnificent and grand as Canaan’s rose from the Candle Sect practitioner’s body surface, like a sacred and majestic Buddha’s image overshadowing behind him. A faint golden halo adorned his body’s surface, solemn and dignified like a bodhi. Simultaneously, he formed a peculiar seal with his right hand.

This was clearly the Bodhi Golden Light Body and Immovable Treasure Bottle Seal in a different form!

Or perhaps, these are the same secret techniques, just diverging at a junction during cultivation. The Candle Sect practitioner and Canaan walked two different paths.

"Interesting!"

"I want to see whose turtle shell is harder, yours or Canaan’s!?"

Bai Xiao disappeared from his original position without hesitation.

The arena shook violently, and strong winds blew fiercely.

In an instant, he arrived in front of the Candle Sect practitioner, his arms raised high, forming two enormous fierce metallic axe shadows, whistling down as they tore through the air. Moreover, they carried overwhelming Fierce Teeth Intent!

Physical and mental prowess, layered together, power doubled!

"Clang! Clang!"

Two golden light arms collided with the black axe shadows, red sparks burst apart.

The Candle Sect practitioner retreated three steps, crushing the ground. But in an instant, his whole being was enveloped in white Qi, his speed skyrocketing, he powerfully thrust himself into Bai Xiao’s chest.

A double punch struck like flowing water cutting rock, emitting a deafening roar.

Bang bang twice.

The towering figure trembled slightly, yet there was no dodging, even actively opening his strong arms. His waist and back slightly arched, the entire sturdy upper body ballooned, a massive black shadow loomed. His arms clasped in like iron tongs!

"Boom boom boom..."

The air crushed inch by inch, the surrounding aura seemed to solidify like glue.

The Candle Sect practitioner’s visage changed, entering the Epiphyllum state once more, their figure instantly blurred. Yet Bai Xiao also flickered, activating the Momentary Lotus secret technique. A thunderous roar erupted, air currents exploded, a burst of golden light shattered.

The two figures had already vanished from the original spot.

They suddenly appeared in a position nearly a hundred meters away.

Both still maintained the clinch position.

"Crack!"

"Ding ding ding ding..."

The Buddha’s Golden Light covering the Candle Sect practitioner shattered like glass, showing unavoidable cracks. The hand forming a finger technique, also trembled slightly, inevitably separating from Bai Xiao’s brute strength!

"It seems your two moves aren’t much stronger than Canaan’s either!"

Bai Xiao looked down from above, the sound of his voice rumbling.

While you’re down, I’ll take you out!

He directly entered the Extreme Realm, expanding his victory. Bai Xiao instantaneously transformed into a gigantic figure radiating fiery golden light, two entangled Furious Dragon Giant Elephant phantoms roared at their peak, unleashed wild shouts. The immensely hot Glazed Flame Light swept all directions, echoed in resonating concord, shaking the universe.

"Boom!!"

In a peak grapple, making everyone present blink in surprise.

A colossal figure over three meters tall, seemingly capable of crushing the Candle Sect practitioner who was only half their size in an instant. The arms scraped against the air, producing the visual effect akin to a meteor punching through the atmosphere, golden red sparks sprouted on the palm surface.

"Black and White Qi!"

The Candle Sect practitioner finally couldn’t hold back, at the last moment, using this first-rank peak cultivation technique. Raising his arms, two fingers spread apart, the golden gigantic silhouette of Bai Xiao reflected in his eyes, his hands slid, Black and White Qi spiraled!

"Whoosh!"

"Zoom!"

First, the white Qi entwined and sucked, accelerating Bai Xiao’s charge.

Then.

Black Qi, like a repulsive halo, swept a terrifying shockwave!

"Boom!!!"

Bai Xiao’s ferocious elephant-like figure was suddenly hurled away, akin to a meteor heavily crashing onto the Solid Rock Arena. With a boisterous bang, fragments exploded like rain, thick dust and vapor surrounded.

"Black and White Qi, force of rigidity and flexibility!"

"The force you charge in with, black Qi will instantly rebound to you upon contact! Moreover, under the suction of white Qi, your impact will be greatly amplified, and even exceeded by black Qi’s rebounding attack surpassing your power limits! Bai Xiao, just now..."

"How does it feel?"

The Candle Sect practitioner wrapped in white Qi with his left hand, enveloped in black Qi with his right, gently swept toward Bai Xiao’s descending direction. His hands impressively drew out two black and white ribbons in the air, indescribable force of rigidity and flexibility, marvelously miraculous!
