Chapter 4632: Did Mr. Feng Fool Me?
Duan Ling Tian's eyes lit up when he heard Xue Qing Zhu's response. He nodded and said, "Alright. Since you've agreed, let's find an abandoned realm to spar in. The outcome of the fight will be determined by three strikes."
Duan Ling Tian and the other two tore through the spatial barrier and left the God Defying World. It did not take long before they found a small abandoned realm. It used to be a World, but it had exhausted its energy. The realm was barren, devoid of all living things now.
The trio hovered in the sky above the ruins of a city. The buildings were dilapidated, and they were very different from what Duan Ling Tian had seen before. They had a certain charm to them. It was a pity that they had fallen into ruins, their former glory long forgotten.
At the same time, spatial cracks appeared continuously around the trio before they mended themselves. This cycle repeated itself over and over again. This was due to the lack of World energy in this realm.
World energy was deeply tied to a World. The loss of World energy meant that a World would lose its vitality and that the World would fall to ruins. It was also for this reason that many powerful World destroyed smaller Worlds to seize their World energy/
The Upper Three Worlds and the 18 Middle Worlds, including the God Defying World, were ancient Worlds. Under normal circumstances, they should have depleted their World energy by now. However, thanks to their respective powerhouses, they were able to invade smaller Worlds and seized their World energy, ensuring their survival.
This was the survival of the fittest. It was the same for cultivators and the Worlds.
"Make your move," Xue Qing said coldly. Her back was straight, and her hands gripped her sword tightly. Soon enough, a surge of ferocious energy rolled out. At this moment, she was like a sword, standing tall and proud.
At the same time, Feng Qing Yang watched from a distance. He extended his Divine Consciousness to his surroundings, guarding against those who might launch a sneak attack on them. To be precise, he was guarding against Lei Hong.
After all, a fight between two level-seven supreme powerhouses will definitely cause a terrible commotion, which would attract everyone's attention. Who knew if Lei Hong would come here to have a look? At that time, if Lei Hong saw Duan Ling Tian, it was not impossible for him to launch a sneak attack.
With his Divine Consciousness, Feng Qing Yang could easily restrain Lei Hong and prevent the latter from escaping if the latter showed up.
As for the fight between his disciple and the woman he liked, he had no doubts about the outcome. After all, if his disciple went all out, he knew that his disciple could disciple her with just a strike.
...
Faced with Xue Qing Zhu who wore a solemn expression on her exquisite face, Duan Ling Tian replied, "Alright."
Duan Ling Tian yawned as he lazily raised his hand and flicked his fingers.
Swoosh!
In just a blink of an eye, a terrifying sword ray that was inconspicuous in size appeared. However, it did not take long before it grew into a huge sword ray. It shot toward Xue Qing Zhu, looking as though it was going to cleave the sky into two. It left countless spatial cracks in its wake as it flew toward its target. At the same time, vague illusions could be seen as well.
These illusions were a passive effect from Duan Ling Tian's law of space that reflected bits and pieces of the surrounding Worlds.
Buzz!
Xue Qing Zhu moved and struck with her sword at this moment. A huge explosion rang in the air. Following that, countless sword rays swept out like a hurricane, and she seemingly stood in the eye of the hurricane. Despite the violent wind, her body remained straight, and even her clothes were still.
The dazzling sword rays seemed like they were going to drown the small realm when they appeared. They seemed peerless and majestic as they shot toward Duan Ling Tian's sword ray.
When the two strikes collided, silence descended briefly before a terrifying wave of energy exploded and swept out in all directions. Just like that, the aftershock destroyed everything in the realm. Even what little was left of the World energy was depleted when it tried to protect the realm.
"Second strike," Duan Ling Tian said before he attacked again.
The second strike was only slightly stronger than the first strike. Just like the first one, Xue Qing Zhu stopped the second strike.
At this time, Xue Qing Zhu could not help but feel slightly disappointed. For a moment, she wondered to herself, 'Did Mr. Feng fool me? Didn't he say his disciple is stronger than him?'
...
If Feng Qing Yang was aware of her thoughts, he would have felt wronged. After all, Duan Ling Tian did not use his Limitless Dao and Mastery Dao at all.
He knew Duan Ling Tian was holding back and would only seriously make a move at the end. He planned to defeat the woman with one strike so she would have no choice but to fulfill her promise.
Meanwhile, when Duan Ling Tian struck the second time, many powerhouses from the Myriad Worlds came over out of curiosity. However, before they could come any closer, they were warned off by Feng Qing Yang.
"Everyone, I'm Feng Qing Yang from the God Defying World. My disciple and Miss Xue Qing Zhu from the Outer Boundary are sparring here. In order to avoid any unnecessary injuries and misunderstandings, please stay back."
Along with the message, they could also sense Feng Qing Yang's domineering Divine Consciousness. With this, they could only retreat.
"No wonder the commotion is so big! As it turns out, Duan Ling Tian from the God Defying World is sparring with Xue Qing Zhu, the new level-seven supreme powerhouse from the Outer Boundary!"
"This is terrifying. Two level-seven supreme powerhouses are sparring while another one is keeping watch..."
"It's a pity that Lord Feng doesn't allow us to watch! If we could watch them, perhaps our cultivation might improve!"
"I heard that the new level-seven supreme powerhouse from the Outer Boundary is also a sword cultivator like Lord Feng and Lord Duan!"
...
At the same time, Lei Hong, who had left the Sun Bright World and had gone into hiding, received the news, and his eyes lit up immediately.
"Duan Ling Tian and Feng Qing Yang left the God Defying World?"
