Chapter 320: Chapter 317: Five Internal True Fire

Humm!

Ye Zhen’s body resonated with the long cry of his Sword Vein Divine Power, as the countless Origin Sword Veins of the First Sword Vein emanated a brilliant golden light, as if condensing into a colossal Origin Sword that pierced straight into the sky.

In the midst of it all, Ye Zhen felt as though he was the Origin Sword, and the Origin Sword was him. Under the augmentation of this Origin Sword, Ye Zhen could see through everything around him.

It was as if he were a god looking down from above, or an independent observer detached from the world; everything around him could not escape Ye Zhen’s insight.

Ye Zhen found that as he entered the Sword Heart Enlightenment realm more and more frequently, his understanding became increasingly unique.

Even Sect Leader Guo Qijing, who was hidden among the clouds observing the battle from afar, was sensed by Ye Zhen; however, he only sensed the presence of Guo Qijing’s qi, and could not perceive more specifics, which probably had to do with the strength of his Divine Soul Power.

But under Sword Heart Enlightenment, every detail of Chu Jun directly in front of Ye Zhen became vividly clear—not only the hairs on Chu Jun’s face but even the flow patterns and speeds of the Spiritual Power inside Chu Jun’s body were sensed by Ye Zhen.

"This guy is going to make a move, huh, the left side...."

Clang!

The Profound Yang Sword suddenly unsheathed, with a Wind Sweeps Away Clouds attack slashing like lightning toward an opening on the left.

In the next instant, Chu Jun, who had just flicked out a glob of Spiritual Fire with his fingers, suddenly revealed a ghostly expression of shock.

The glob of Five Internal Spirit Fire he had released, as if volunteered to take a hit, had just been smashed by the Sword Light from Ye Zhen the moment it launched.

He had a bizarre feeling, as if Ye Zhen’s Sword Light had been waiting there for his Five Internal Spirit Fire to arrive.

Bang!

In the moment the Five Internal Spirit Fire was split apart, nobody noticed that a Sword Cloud had silently appeared above Ye Zhen’s head.

"Eighteen Blasts of Spirit Fire!"

Chu Jun’s fingers fluttered like butterflies weaving through flowers, and with every light flick, a glob of Five Internal Spirit Fire shot out, bombarding towards Ye Zhen.

But as strange as Chu Jun’s Five Internal Spirit Fire was, Ye Zhen’s Sword Moves were even more miraculous.

As if he could predict it in advance, Ye Zhen’s Spiritual Gang seemed to be there early, waiting for Chu Jun’s Five Internal Spirit Fire to blast forth every time.

Sometimes, it was as if Ye Zhen was taking a leisurely stroll; with a sweep of Sword Light, he could easily shatter the Five Internal Spirit Fire that Chu Jun hurled at him.

Chu Jun’s fingers flew rapidly, the Five Internal Spirit Fire shooting out at extreme speed with exceedingly tricky attack directions, yet Ye Zhen moved amongst it with ease, not a single spark touching him.

All of this made Chu Jun feel like coughing up blood.

His Five Internal Spirit Fire was extremely powerful, and his Finger Technique was very tricky. Usually, against peers of the same level, it would be an outright crushing victory, but this feeling of being repeatedly chopped upon delivery, was something he had never experienced before.

Chu Jun felt an urge to vomit blood from frustration, while the onlookers, whether they were True Inheritors from the Spirit Transformation Realm or elders from the Soul Sea Realm, were all dumbfounded, even Sect Leader Guo Qijing was astonished.

Guo Qijing had initially thought that it would be extremely remarkable for Ye Zhen to contend with Chu Jun without falling short, let alone overpower him, given the disparity in their cultivation levels.

But unexpectedly, he still underestimated Ye Zhen. Judging by Ye Zhen’s relaxed demeanor, it would be quite an achievement for Chu Jun to not be defeated.

"It seems that Divine Power Martial Skills are really powerful, even if they are just auxiliary..." In the clouds, Liao Feibai’s eyes sparkled with unique light, and among all those present, only she understood what was going on.

"Senior Brother Fan, do you think Ye Zhen might win? It looks like Ye Zhen is pressuring Chu Jun. Strange, Chu Jun has been so formidable these past few days, but when facing Ye Zhen, he suddenly can’t cope?" True Disciple Luv Xin was full of puzzlement.

Fan Chuyu did not speak, but his lips were slightly bitter. After clashing with Chu Jun more than three times these last few days, he was acutely aware of just how terrifying Chu Jun’s Eighteen Blasts of Spirit Fire were. The embarrassing state he had been in under Chu Jun’s barrage was still fresh in his memory.

Fan Chuyu dared not make any comments either, as he could no longer gauge Ye Zhen’s strength. Although he hoped that Ye Zhen would lose, he feared that the moment he voiced the possibility of Ye Zhen losing, he would be starkly contradicted.

The fact that Fan Chuyu had struggled for years to become a True Disciple certainly didn’t mean he was brainless.

As for the rest, their gazes towards Ye Zhen were now filled with admiration.

In these three days, Chu Jun’s prowess alone had left all the disciples of the Qiyun Sect breathless, with even the strongest among the True Disciples, Fan Chuyu, having to admit defeat in a disheveled state after barely a hundred breaths under Chu Jun’s onslaught.

Now that Ye Zhen was actually pressuring Chu Jun in battle, it was foreseeable that regardless of win or loss, Ye Zhen would become the revered Senior Brother in the hearts of all disciples of the Qiyun Sect.

"Chu Jun, if that’s all you’ve got, it doesn’t seem like much."

"Is that so, Ye Zhen? Then try to handle this move! The power of this move is something that even I can’t control, hmph, be careful!" Chu Jun, as the Junior Sect Leader of the Lishui Sect, had a certain level of strategic insight, understanding that it was not permissible to kill in this situation, hence his warning.

Almost at the same time, Chu Jun roared angrily, as the five blooms of his Five Internal Spirit Fire in front of his chest suddenly merged into one. Fire Element Spiritual Power surged wildly around his body, coalescing into a ball of faint purple flames.

"Go!"

The faint purple flame flew out abruptly, heading straight for Ye Zhen’s Sword Light. The air crackled as it burned wherever the purple flame passed.

"Be careful! Retreat quickly!"

"This is the Five Internal True Fire, the ultimate secret technique of the Lishui Sect!"

Almost simultaneously, the voices of Liao Feibai and Sect Leader Guo Qijing, warning him, resounded in Ye Zhen’s mind.

"Killing Move, do you think I don’t have one?"

The number of Sword Clouds over Ye Zhen’s head had already reached a climax, and practically in the same instant he spoke, Ye Zhen launched himself high into the air with his Profound Yang Sword in hand. The Sword Clouds above him collided violently as if the wind and clouds had reached a point of fierce convergence.

Boom boom boom!

In the thunderous roar of the sky, a slash tens of meters long, accompanied by a streak of flashing lightning resembling a Thunder Snake, lunged at the ball of purple flames.

Eight Directions Fall!

Boom!

Sword Light, Thunder Light, and the purple flames interwove crazily. Even before the shockwaves could erupt, the spectacle had already frightened the onlooking Qiyun Sect disciples into retreating step by step.

To Ye Zhen’s surprise, Chu Jun’s purple flame of the Five Internal True Fire was incredibly formidable and had managed to completely incinerate every trace of Ye Zhen’s sword light and thunder from his Eight Directions Fall.

You should know that under normal circumstances, Ye Zhen’s move, Eight Directions Fall, even a Martial Artist at the peak of the Fifth Stage of Spirit Transformation Realm would be gravely injured.

Ye Zhen was slightly stunned, but Chu Jun sneered.

With a nudge of his Divine Sense and a tightening of his viscera, five flames of Five Internal Spirit Fire surged out, instantly merging into a single orb of Five Internal True Fire. With a flick of his finger, it shot towards Ye Zhen like lightning.

"Ye Zhen, that formation of your Sword Cloud took more than a dozen breaths to charge, didn’t it? What will you use to block this time?" Chu Jun laughed loudly. With a push of his Divine Sense, the Five Internal True Fire moved even faster.

In the sky, Sect Leader Guo Qijing’s expression tightened, and a cyan Great Palm Seal was already faintly visible behind him. He couldn’t allow Ye Zhen to fall to Chu Jun’s cruel attack, even if it meant losing face.

"Senior Brother Ye, be careful!"

"Be careful!"

"This kid..." Even Elder Lik Shi started to worry.

Strangely, Ye Zhen’s expression did not show the slightest hint of panic.

"What’s this?"

A vast and terrifying aura suddenly emerged from Ye Zhen, as a jade-colored finger appeared out of thin air and gently tapped right at the center of the Five Internal True Fire.

"This finger technique..." In the sky, Sect Leader Guo Qijing’s face changed drastically! Below him, Elder Lik Shi’s worry suddenly turned into surprise.

Poof!

As if snuffing out a candle, in the instant the jade finger touched it, the purple Five Internal True Fire dispersed like ripples in all directions and vanished without a trace.

The Five Internal True Fire had dissipated, but Ye Zhen’s Floating Cloud Finger still remained.

With a thought from Ye Zhen, the jade segment of the Floating Cloud Finger, like a bolt of lightning, stamped toward Chu Jun’s forehead.

Chu Jun was terror-stricken. Not only did the radiance of his Protective Spirit Force shine brightly around him, but his body surface was also covered with a layer of the Five Internal Battle Body’s unique Five Internal Spirit Fire.

Poof!

Like tearing paper, with a light tap, the Floating Cloud Finger pierced through Chu Jun’s body surface layer of Five Internal Spirit Fire, pointing directly at the middle of his forehead.

In an instant, Chu Jun’s eyes showed a kind of deadly despair!

He could not believe that his prized Five Internal True Fire was so easily defeated by this finger technique, to the point that even his life was at stake.

Actually, Chu Jun was somewhat wronged in this battle.

Normally, Ye Zhen’s Floating Cloud Finger would not have such immense power, after all, Ye Zhen’s cultivation did not seem strong enough, good enough to challenge those beyond his level, but not to instantly vanquish them.

However, spiritual power is mutually counteractive!

Ye Zhen’s jade attribute spiritual power was precisely the bane of fire spiritual power. It was like wood spirit power encountering golden spirit power, and the combat effectiveness weakened by two or three tenths right off the bat.

If Chu Jun did not cultivate fire spirit power, the Floating Cloud Finger could scatter his killing move, but it definitely wouldn’t have been able to dissipate his Protective Spirit Force as well.

There’s no way around it, the horror of counteractive spiritual powers is just so.

"Please, spare my life under your finger!"

"Ye Zhen, don’t!"

Almost simultaneously, the voices of Lishui Sect’s Elder Lik Shi and Qiyun Sect Leader Guo Qijing rushed into Ye Zhen’s mind.

Chu Jun absolutely could not be killed.

Especially not on Qiyun Sect’s territory.

If Chu Jun died, then the good situation that had been built up by the Black Water Kingdom over the last year or two would be completely ruined.

In the midst of the arena, Chu Jun’s forehead suddenly felt an indescribable tremor, as though it was about to be pierced at any moment.

"Don’t move carelessly, a single tremble of this finger sword can penetrate your skull!"

At the critical moment, Ye Zhen’s Floating Cloud Finger did not press down. As the Floating Cloud Finger dispersed, a Spiritual Power Sword Finger pointed at Chu Jun’s forehead. With spiritual power surging, it was clear that at Ye Zhen’s mere thought, Chu Jun’s face would have a new bloody hole.

Seeing this scene, Sect Leader Guo Qijing, Elder Lik Shi, and including the Seventh Elder Zhongli Jing in the sky, all breathed a sigh of relief. In that instant before, they were truly fearful.

They had not expected that in an instant, Ye Zhen could unleash such a strong killing move, completely flipping the outcome of the battle.

"Chu Jun, do you know why I did not kill you?" Ye Zhen asked coldly.

Chu Jun, a bit dazed, shook his head, his eyes somewhat foggy, as though he was trapped in a dream.

Just over a year ago, in his eyes, Ye Zhen was nothing more than an insignificant existence. If he had challenged Ye Zhen back then, it would have been laughable, but now, over a year later, his life was in Ye Zhen’s hands.

"It’s not because of the Sect Leader’s persuasion, nor because of Elder Lik Shi’s shouts, nor due to your identity! It’s all because of Meng Xiaoyue!

Your head belongs to Meng Xiaoyue!"

"Meng Xiaoyue..." A bitter expression appeared on Chu Jun’s lips.

Having said that, Ye Zhen dissipated the spiritual power sword finger in his hand, looking proudly at Chu Jun, "The grudge is settled. Are we to continue the battle of True Inheritors of our two sects, or not?"

At these words, Chu Jun’s mouth curled into an even bitterer expression. He had lost; how could he continue?

"We... have lost..."

As the voice of Chu Jun conceding defeat sounded, the cheers of the Qiyun Sect disciples rose like a tidal wave.

"Senior Brother Ye is mighty!"
