Chapter 1276: Chapter 1276: Battle Against Long Xuan

"Idiot."

Cang Xue coldly uttered as she watched Su Chengyu at the Martial Arts Field, believing he clearly didn’t understand the uniqueness of Long Xuan and others, which made him so arrogant.

Xia Country never lacked geniuses, whether they were from the ancient clans known for their talent, or from the Four Major Taoist Sects renowned across the nation, there appeared one or two remarkable individuals every three to five years.

But since the founding of Xia Country, the truly recognized geniuses, known to all, were only three.

Su Zhedian, Yang Chengyin, and the current Long Xuan.

Of course, since Ye Qingci rose in Dongying, entered Hollow Vacuum and then ascended to Earth Immortal, ranking second on the Red List, she has been esteemed among them.

However, compared to the sudden rise of Ye Qingci, Long Xuan left too many legends in Xia Country.

This genius from the Long family attracted much attention at the time of his enlightenment. In his early years when he joined the Long family, he wielded a War Axe to battle by cultivating Qi at the Foundation Establishment stage, and after a brief silence at Mount Longhu, he proceeded to journey in Kunwu Realm and then visited Dao at Dragon and Tiger.

From the southern skies to the northern lands, seeking immortal doctrines countless times, it’s said that Long Xuan, at the Golden Core Realm, consulted with Land Immortals without victory or defeat.

He questioned the Four Major Taoist Sects and all the aristocratic immortal families and never faced defeat; in fact, many sects took pride in Long Xuan’s visit to inquire about the Dao.

Long Xuan’s life was as smooth as if he was protected by Immortals, and before Ye Qingci appeared, no one doubted that Long Xuan would become the youngest Earth Immortal of his time, breaking the record set by Yang Chengyin.

"This guy is a complete show-off. Su Chengyu has really rushed into this," Yang Junmo lamented, still unable to understand why Su Chengyu made such a bold move.

Cang Xue just sneered at the scene, believing confidently that if Long Xuan truly made a move, Su Chengyu would have no chance of winning.

The reason?

Isn’t Long Xuan enough of an explanation?

"Make your move."

On the Martial Arts Field, Long Xuan spoke to Su Chengyu lightly, as if he wasn’t facing a life-or-death battle.

"No Heaven, No Earth!"

Su Chengyu opened with the Supreme Cave-void Sword Technique’s most powerful move, understanding that even Heavenly-level martial arts might not suffice to determine the outcome of the contest, but he still thought it best to test with a sword move.

"Thunder Descends."

Boom!

As Long Xuan’s words fell, a yellow heavenly thunder suddenly appeared beside Su Chengyu and violently exploded.

The spot where Su Chengyu had just been standing instantly formed a huge crater, showing Long Xuan’s mastery over the Thunder Technique as well.

"Nine Heavens Thunder Summoning Technique?"

Yang Qianyan exclaimed in surprise, turning to Xu Zijing, remembering that Long Xuan had never used this technique, renowned as one of the top two in the world.

Xu Zijing nodded slightly, "Long Xuan’s understanding of the Nine Heavens Thunder Summoning Technique is above mine."

Also from Dragon and Tiger, Xu Zijing’s Nine Heavens Thunder Summoning Technique was one of his unique skills, and his training in Thunder Technique as an orthodox celestial practice had never been neglected.

Yet even so, Long Xuan, who rarely used Thunder Techniques, had better control over the Nine Heaven Thunder Summoning Technique than Xu Zijing, revealing the height of Long Xuan’s talent.

"Doesn’t Su Chengyu also know Thunder Technique?"

Mo Ningchen interjected, puzzled why Su Chengyu didn’t also use Thunder Technique to counter his enemy.

Xu Zijing smiled and said, "Why do you think Su Chengyu chose Swordsmanship as his first move? He aims to avoid competing with Long Xuan using the same techniques as much as possible. This young man clearly knows that in similar techniques, Long Xuan’s understanding at the Peak of the Void is far beyond his."

"He knows?"

Cang Xue was somewhat surprised, listening to this answer which was clearly unexpected. She had always believed that Su Chengyu would take the initiative to propose a life-and-death battle, simply because he didn’t understand the terrifying aspects of Long Xuan.

"Don’t assume everyone is as foolish as you."

Huang Quan coldly spoke up from the side.

He knew about Imperial Concubine Chen’s intentions to exacerbate the strife between the Long family and Su Chengyu before Cang Xue did; he didn’t agree to it, not out of courtesy to Su Chengyu, but because he understood that no matter the outcome, in the end, it would only lead both parties to resent him.

"Hmph! Easy for you to say, considering that this young Su’s appearance isn’t threatening your position."

Cang Xue spoke coldly, she wasn’t completely unaware of the situation, but did she have a choice?

Among the Twelve Holy Emissaries, excluding Red Flame, who had old grievances with Su Chengyu, she was the one most wary of Su Chengyu’s ascension.

Su Chengyu must die! It didn’t matter whose hand he died by, but he absolutely couldn’t join the Demon Slayer Department!

"Enough, we’re just on different sides here; there’s no need to continue this quarrel."

With a single sentence from Yang Qianyan, both Cang Xue and Qian Jun ceased their argument. Seeing the two finally quiet down, Yang Qianyan’s gaze briefly shifted towards Ye Qingci.

At the moment, Ye Qingci was intently focusing her gaze on the Martial Arts Field, seemingly uninterested in everything happening around her.

Seeing Ye Qingci like this, Yang Qianyan unexpectedly spoke up, "Qingci, aren’t you going to make a move?"

"I will not," Ye Qingci said coldly, "Since this is Su Chengyu’s own decision, there’s no exception for me to intervene. Also, call me Han Yue."

Yang Qianyan gave a wry smile, said nothing more, and turned his head back towards the Martial Arts Field.

What he called Ye Qingci didn’t matter to him; what truly mattered was whether Ye Qingci would intervene in this battle between Long Xuan and Su Chengyu.

In his view, as long as Ye Qingci didn’t step in, there was absolutely no way for Su Chengyu to survive.

Bang!

Accompanied by a loud boom, an enormous force of Mana burst open at the center of the Martial Arts Field, forcing Su Chengyu to retreat nearly a hundred meters, till he reached the edge of the field.

And Long Xuan, who had been approached closely by Su Chengyu, merely stepped back slightly, just enough to dodge the blade’s sharp edge.

"King-grade Divine Artifact, it has been upgraded, huh?"

Long Xuan softly spoke, looking at the Dragon Slayer Sword. If not for the Sword Intent on the Dragon Slayer Sword being sharper than before, Long Xuan might not have retreated even half a step.

"Isn’t each of the three swords in your hand a King-grade Divine Artifact?"

Su Chengyu spoke softly, his gaze shifting towards the three immobile Peach Wood Swords behind Long Xuan.

Long Xuan nodded, then, with a flirtatious flick of his fingers, the Peach Wood Swords finally left Long Xuan’s back, transforming into a giant dragon rushing towards Su Chengyu.

Su Chengyu also made his move in an instant, likewise unleashing the True Dragon Technique.

However, left with no choice but to use the True Dragon Technique to defend, the Five-clawed Golden Dragon summoned by Su Chengyu was vastly inferior compared to Long Xuan’s Crimson True Dragon.

The Crimson True Dragon raised its claw, and with just one strike, shattered the Golden Dragon in the air, then, as if meeting no resistance, charged directly towards Su Chengyu!

The tangible strike hit Su Chengyu’s body, who, having no room to retreat, could only rely on his physical body and True Dragon Armor to withstand the blow.

Using the same True Dragon Technique, both at the Nascent Soul Realm, the gap between them was as vast as the heavens!

A woeful Su Chengyu, with a bitter smile and blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, looked at Long Xuan and softly said, "Are you telling me this is the Nascent Soul?"
