Witnessing the cloudy and misty smoke that is omitting from Liang Tao's body, Lian Chen coldly said: "We came here to duel. But here you are, showing me a circus trick!"
"AHHHH! I WILL KILL YOU! DEFINITELY KILL YOU!" Liang Tao loudly shouted and raised his sword high up in the air.
"Cloudburst Radiant Glory Slash!"
A radiant light shined out from Liang Tao sword, and dazzled the surroundings of the palace hall.
"Lian Chen, watch out! That is the Cloudburst Immortal Sect ultimate move!" Gong Xuanyan shouted out towards Lian Chen, warning him.
"Looks like this is an all-out or nothing…" Lian Chen's gaze turned serious and he looked towards Liang Tao.
"DIE LIAN CHEN!" Both Lian Chen and Liang Tao jumped towards each other at the same time.
As Lian Chen approached Liang Tao, Lian Chen immediately infused qi into his body and the two cores in Lian Chen body started spinning faster.
"Lotus Blossom, third strike! Lotus Blooming Flower!" As both Lian Chen and Liang Tao clashed against one another, the impact resounded everywhere throughout the arena.
* Pfft *
Suddenly, Lian Chen coughed out blood, as he was too weak to use the third strike of the Lotus Blossom, his meridians expanded too much from utilizing the Lightning Rush Footwork, together with the third strike of the Lotus Blossom Palm Strike.
Liang Tao saw that Lian Chen coughed out a mouthful of blood, and immediately laughed sinisterly: "Die! Lian Chen. Die! HAHAHA!"
"Damn it! I'm being forced back! If I get hit by this attack, I'm done for!" Lian Chen mustered all his remaining strength, channeling it into his arm, in an attempt to push Liang Tao back and create some distance between them.
Amidst the intense battle taking place in the arena, unbeknownst to everyone, a mysterious jade stone concealed within Lian Chen's pocket underwent a peculiar transformation.
In an instant, the stone vanished from his pocket and reappeared within his dantian, joining the other two cores within him and commencing a synchronized rotation.
As Lian Chen was busy concentrating, he was oblivious that the jade stone he bought previously had been absorbed into his dantian.
Suddenly, Lian Chen felt that his body did not hurt that much anymore, and pushed Liang Tao back with all of his might.
* BOOM *
A deafening explosion reverberated throughout the arena, sending shockwaves and billowing clouds of smoke and debris in every direction. The once serene and orderly space was now engulfed in chaos and confusion.
"Whoa! What happened? Are the both of them alright?"
"Cough.. Cough.. I can't see anything…"
Many disciples exclaimed and were struggling to look at the stage that was filled with smoke.
As the smoke dissipated, it could be seen that there was one silhouette that was lying down on the floor, and one was standing weakly on the arena.
Everyone thought that the one lying down was Lian Chen, and the one standing weakly was Liang Tao.
"Nicely done! Liang Tao! As expected of my disciple from the Cloudburst Immortal Sect!" Wei Fengyun shouted, praising his disciple.
"Brother Lian….. Lian Chen…." Both Duan Wu Kun and Lin Chuxuan looked towards the stage, worried that Lian Chen was injured heavily.
"Lian Chen…" Gong Xuanyan looked towards the stage, his eyes showing no emotions.
"Oi, Wei Fengyun was it? Or is it Blind Fengyun?" Can't you see that it is your disciple, the one lying on the floor?"
Suddenly, a voice resonated from the arena, and it was a familiar voice that everyone in the Buddha Benevolent Sect is familiar with.
