Chapter 989: Make a Move!
Three breaths!
The fifth round shatters!
This scene shook the entire audience once again.
Since ancient times, the Bamboo Sea Sword Array has been famous within the Ye Family.
It is also known as the most dangerous and difficult trial to break through.
Countless prodigies have stopped at the fourth round, failing in the fifth round.
Yet today, Heavenly Mansion Chief Xia Liu actually destroyed the Bamboo Sea Sword Array with extreme speed.
For the terrifying last two rounds, he only took three breaths of time!
Even Ye Xuan, being a cultivator, felt her heart flutter facing such a thunderous method.
"Chief Xia has already broken all previous records of the challengers, crushing the fifth round in less than three breaths!"
"This record is incredibly terrifying."
"Hey, did you all notice a particular detail?"
"What detail?"
"Chief Xia never defended the entire time, it was all attacks! Using his own power to crush the momentum of the Bamboo Sea Sword Array!"
"Wow!"
"It really seems so!"
"My goodness! That's terrifying!"
...
When everyone came back to their senses, they were all stupefied.
The previous challengers of the sword array, who among them did not defend desperately, yet all ended in failure.
Those strong ones named on the stele, who didn't end up exhausted at the last?
Xia Liu was definitely an anomaly.
He did not defend, directly using powerful force to smash the Bamboo Sea Sword Array!
Rumble!!!
Heavenly thunder echoed in the depths of the Bamboo Sea.
In a grass hut, a pair of shrewd eyes suddenly opened.
"It's been a long time since a cultivator came to try the formation, more than two hundred years, finally a high-rank Qi cultivation stage cultivator came..."
The pale figure slightly parted his lips, then his figure moved and disappeared from the grass hut.
Inside the Bamboo Sea Sword Array.
Facing the final round of attacks, Xia Liu remained unmoved.
But in the next moment, his eyes suddenly shrank with horror.
A massive Divine Sense enveloped him.
"Thirteenth level Qi cultivation stage cultivator!"
Murmuring in shock, Xia Liu's eyes narrowed, his gaze sharply pointed towards the direction of the bamboo grove.
"Interesting, the strength of this Divine Sense seems to be at the seventh level of Qi cultivation, but the physical body possesses the strength and Spiritual Energy source of the eighth level."
In the depths of the bamboo forest, the pale figure stood by the dry riverbank murmuring to himself.
It's the first time he encountered someone with Xia Liu's physique.
"Xia Liu! The strength of this Divine Sense should be Senior Ye Wuya."
Upon arrival of the person, the Divine Sense came first. Ye Xuan also felt this familiar Divine Sense, then used Divine Consciousness Sound Transmission to remind Xia Liu.
"Hmm, got it."
Xia Liu responded simply, his gaze locked in the direction where Ye Wuya stood, his Divine Sense couldn't extend to the opponent's location, he could only roughly estimate the opponent's cultivation level through the strength of Divine Sense.
Thirteen levels of Qi cultivation, a peak existence of the Qi cultivation stage.
If with some opportunity, it might not take long to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage.
Just as Xia Liu was observing this powerful Divine Sense.
Suddenly, this Divine Sense condensed within the bamboo grove.
In a flash, a seemingly ordinary bamboo sword floated out from a section of bamboo.
This wooden sword was very ordinary, not noticeable at all.
But the power of Divine Sense on it made Xia Liu startle.
He was sure that Ye Wuya was controlling this wooden sword!
This means, in the sixth round of the Bamboo Sea Sword Array, Xia Liu had to face Ye Wuya!
Ye Wuya at the thirteenth level of Qi cultivation!
Whoosh!
A faint sound of something breaking through the air came from the forest.
Unlike before, this attack was not that sharp.
It was even very inconspicuous, and the bamboos along the way showed no change.
This wooden sword shuttled through the forest without causing any damage.
Yet Xia Liu was very solemn.
Because he could feel the terrifying power on this wooden sword!
"Heaven and Earth Moving Wind!"
Without hesitation, Xia Liu formed a hand seal, the cloud winds of the eight directions roared in fury!
A mighty palm struck out, Heaven and Earth Gang Wind burst forth instantly, and a section of the bamboo forest crashed down.
The grand violent wind fell, yet look!
The bamboo sword, like light, ignored the Heaven and Earth Gang Wind, roaming freely within.
Seeing that Heaven and Earth Moving Wind was ineffective, Xia Liu formed another hand seal, Flowing Fire Sword raged, exactly the Fire Spirit Sword!
Buzz!
Ice Flame Sword Energy erupted with an imposing presence, the shadow of Flowing Fire Sword shocking everyone present.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the shadow faced the wooden sword.
The result once again made Xia Liu solemn.
The wooden sword, neither fast nor slow, pierced directly through the sword energy.
"Indeed, the thirteenth level of Qi cultivation is not something I can resist now, but if you want me to yield, it's not enough!"
With defiance in his heart, Xia Liu's Spiritual Energy began to rage.
A grand palm surged to the heavens, Energy Depleted to Mystic Yellow named move was about to unleash!
The Spiritual Energy around his body continuously converged into the upturned palm, at the same time, the Spiritual Energy within the surrounding area was also summoned, all flying in at an instant.
A terrifying momentum swept around.
The Ye Family members all held their breath.
Their voices were all caught in their throats.
Xia Liu's power thoroughly shocked them.
Within a short time, Xia Liu actually unleashed two ultimate moves.
At this moment, he further condensed that terrifying ultimate move that made souls tremble.
Unimaginable, that thin silhouette, just how much strength was hidden within.
Watching Xia Liu fight for her earnestly, she was moved.
At some unknown time, her eyes were already moist.
She suddenly regretted, why did she refuse Xia Liu.
How could she refuse him?
"Xia Liu's situation isn't good! That wooden sword is controlled by Senior Ye Wuya!"
As the wooden sword entered the range of her Divine Sense, Ye Xuan was immediately shocked.
No wonder Xia Liu, even after using two major Spirit Arts, couldn't subdue the wooden sword, it turned out the wooden sword was supported by Ye Wuya!
"What! Senior Ye Wuya actually controls the wooden sword!"
"This is bad!"
"Then, will Xia Liu…"
Ouyang Lingtian and Guo Man were anxiously speaking, Ye Wuya was a cultivator above the tenth level of Qi cultivation.
If he were to act against Xia Liu, with Xia Liu's cultivation at the seventh level of Qi cultivation, it would most likely be unfavorable!
"Rest assured, Senior Ye Wuya wouldn't harm people casually, probably Xia Liu piqued his interest, and he wants to train him personally."
"I see..."
Guo Man slightly let out a sigh of relief.
Originally thinking Xia Liu would easily pass the sword array, but instead, he piqued Ye Wuya's interest, alas...
"Too strong, truly too strong!"
"Dad, I can't compare to him, not in this lifetime..."
When Xia Liu amassed the Energy Depleted to Mystic Yellow, Ye Min understood that for a lifetime, he would look up to Xia Liu.
"Haha, you can't blame yourself, he's too monstrous, with such aura, even warriors at the Innate Late Stage won't gain any advantage."
As a Path-Entering Martial Artist, Ye Yuan knew about the existence of the Innate Realm.
And he had seen Innate Warriors before.
The strike Xia Liu was amassing now, even Innate Warriors would seem pale in comparison.
"Energy Depleted to Mystic Yellow!"
As the wooden sword flew out of the bamboo forest, Xia Liu's mighty palm struck, a Great Handprint formed by the convergence of violent Spiritual Energy burst forth.
As the Great Handprint struck, he further placed his hand on the Flowing Fire Sword, Divine Sense instantly enveloping a hundred-meter radius...
