Chapter 2420 - 1914: Heaven and Earth Prison Cage!
First update, seeking subscriptions and monthly tickets~~~...
No matter the grouping, it actually doesn't have much to do with Qin Fang...
Even if his group consists entirely of Kunlun Sect disciples, he won't show any courtesy... After all, except for a few individuals among the disciples of the Five Great Sects, to him, they all equate to "strangers".
In other words, there is almost no one he needs to be merciful to, so it doesn't matter.
Moreover, Qin Fang's goal is to take the first place, which means he has to step on the shoulders of the other twenty-nine people to reach the top... From the very beginning, it's destined to be a path of "ignoring enemy and ally, eliminating all."
"Qin Fang of the Kunlun Sect versus Fang Buping from Tianya Haige..."
Qin Fang's first opponent is an expert from Tianya Haige, a master-level expert around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, whose cultivation has reached the master-level peak, absolutely no weaker than Jiali Cuo from the Esoteric Sect.
Fang Buping, with a leap, rises into the air like an eagle, then lands steadily onto the platform... This exquisite movement technique earns applause from many spectators.
In contrast, Qin Fang appears much more understated, simply strolling leisurely onto the platform that's more than two meters high...
"Senior Brother Qin, please!"
Upon seeing Qin Fang, Fang Buping's expression turns slightly hostile, yet his manners are impeccable, addressing Qin Fang as "Senior Brother."
Kunlun Sect confirmed Qin Fang's qualification to lead, equivalent to obtaining the title of "Senior Brother" among this generation of disciples.
Thus, Qin Fang's current status is akin to Leng Bingbing of Tianya Haige, so although Fang Buping is older, he has to respectfully call him Senior Brother... In the martial world, seniority is never determined by age.
"Please!"
Qin Fang responds in a standard manner.
He considers addressing Fang Buping as Senior Brother Fang, but decides against it... That might lead the other party to think he is being mocked, so he simply omits the title!
"Swords, come..."
Fang Buping doesn't rush into action, instead calls down to the stage.
Clang~~
Soon a dragon's roar rings out and a silver gleam swiftly flies up from below...
"Nice sword!"
Many who are perceptive instantly exclaim, drawing much attention to this sword.
Qin Fang's eyes narrow slightly, not because the sword is particularly sharp or eye-catching, but because the person delivering the sword... is none other than "Mo Qingsong," who Qin Fang had previously defeated, posing as a disciple of the Evil Sect.
"Could Fang Buping also be a covert agent of the Evil Sect?"
Qin Fang can't help but entertain this thought...
Although his scouting skill feedback shows Fang Buping is indeed a disciple of Tianya Haige, seemingly uninvolved with the Evil Sect... But with his connection to "Mo Qingsong," it's understandable why Qin Fang would think so.
"Senior Brother Qin, you must be careful..."
Fang Buping doesn't linger; grasping the treasured sword, he immediately launches an extremely fierce attack on Qin Fang.
Whiz whiz whiz~~~
Right from the start, there's a very sharp Sword Qi, and the sword's speed is incredibly swift, almost as lightning-fast... Even Qin Fang, slightly lagging behind, is suppressed by this barrage of sharp sword thrusts.
"Tianshan Fast Sword Technique..."
Though this is the first time Qin Fang faces a Tianya Haige expert..."Mo Qingsong" was an imposter, not counted!
However, he learned some formidable techniques of Tianya Haige from Jian Qingfeng... Jian Qingfeng himself is a sword cultivator expert, so naturally, he understands sword techniques more deeply, such as this Tianshan Fast Sword Technique.
As they say, "In the martial arts world, speed is unbeatable..."
Once the speed of attack surpasses an ultimate limit, its lethality becomes terrifying.
Even great grandmaster-level experts' protective gang qi might be systematically destroyed upon encountering such sharp fast sword strikes... Thus, the lethality of such powerful fast sword experts is considerable.
Clink clink clink clink~~
However, Qin Fang is obviously no pushover, quickly finds the opponent's rhythm, swiftly touches his waist, his figure twisting mysteriously, and a longsword emerges in his hand.
Matching speed with speed... Qin Fang fears no one.
Qin Fang rapidly strikes, intercepting the opponent's sword thrusts one after another... A series of hits follow, but Fang Buping's sword point seems to hit an invisible barrier, unable to penetrate!
"Such a fast sword!"
Sensing this, Fang Buping's face turns a bit unsightly... While inwardly remarking.
Qin Fang has participated in the Five Sects Grand Competition, yet struck only three times... Jiali Cuo, the Shaolin disciple, and "Mo Qingsong", nearly all solved with his fists, leading some to believe his true skill lies in punches and kicks.
Only then did Fang Buping want to utilize the advantage of his fast sword to suppress the powerful Qin Fang...
However, the idea, while sound, didn't even have a chance to show results before Qin Fang launched a fierce counterattack... Not only was the opponent a sword cultivator expert, but his achievements in fast swordsmanship seemed even more terrifying.
"No, I can't just sit and wait to be defeated..."
The clinking sounds were incessant, but Fang Buping clearly felt immense pressure... The number of times he initiated attacks decreased, while Qin Fang's counterattacks increased, and it seemed he was about to reach his limit.
If this were a life-and-death fight, Fang Buping absolutely believed he would have died under Qin Fang's fast sword technique... Several times, he clearly felt that Qin Fang deliberately held back from delivering a lethal strike at the most crucial moments.
"Senior Brother Qin, your swordsmanship surpasses mine by far... I'm going to use my final move! If you can take it, I'll concede voluntarily..."
Perhaps because of Qin Fang's restraint, Fang Buping grew a bit more fond of him... But considering the plight of a "friend," he also harbored some resentment, not wanting to lose this match so miserably. He wanted to save some face for himself.
"Please make your move..."
Logically, Qin Fang shouldn't foolishly agree.
However, while Qin Fang's goal was to seize first place, gaining more knowledge about martial arts secrets was also one of his objectives for this journey... Since Fang Buping called it his ultimate move, it must not be simple.
Therefore, even knowing that it could be risky, Qin Fang still agreed without hesitation.
"Alright, straightforward!"
Fang Buping's eyes lit up, and he looked at Qin Fang with a different expression, "After this move, regardless of the outcome... I, Fang Buping, accept you as a friend!"
"Heh!"
Qin Fang didn't mind, but many from the Kunlun Sect couldn't help but let out a scoff, probably thinking Fang Buping was quite shameless!
"Senior Brother Qin, watch out..."
Fang Buping didn't care about others' opinions. He gave a reminder and then focused entirely on making his move. The atmosphere around immediately changed, with a vague sense of chill and killing intent.
"Prison of Heaven and Earth..."
With a shout from Fang Buping, the treasured sword in his hand transformed into countless sword blossoms, which doubled, then quadrupled, and so on... In the blink of an eye, they became endless.
It seemed as if the entire sky was filled with these sword blossoms...
"What an amazing move, Prison of Heaven and Earth..."
Even Qin Fang couldn't help but be drawn to the exquisite sword move, instinctively exclaiming.
This Prison of Heaven and Earth, with sword blossoms densely packed, almost covering the entire sky, gave a dazzling impression...
Of course, this Prison of Heaven and Earth was not merely aesthetic... Hidden within the countless sword blossoms was an extremely chilling killing intent!
Qin Fang could clearly feel that if he couldn't withstand Fang Buping's killer move, he might be seriously injured if not killed...
"Was I being too arrogant?"
Qin Fang couldn't help but mutter to himself.
However, he didn't regret it... Such a secret technique was highly valuable for him as a learning experience.
Buzz~~
At this point, Qin Fang could no longer hold back.
The Flowing Shadow Divine Sword in his hand began to vibrate, and a sword qi surged skyward, appearing thick and terrifying... Most crucially, this sword qi carried the dreadful Annihilation Sword Intent!
"Sword Intent!"
"What terrifying Sword Intent..."
Those present were all highly skilled experts, with keen eyes, instantly becoming spirited.
"Not only has the Sword Intent reached an extremely deep level, but this is also... Attribute Sword Intent!"
Some experts, seeing deeply, had expressions of indescribable gravity... It was as if they were putting themselves in Fang Buping or Qin Fang's place, trying to find the other's weaknesses, and so on.
"Break~~~!"
And at this moment, Qin Fang's sword qi burst forth, with Sword Intent brewing to an extreme. With a mighty shout from Qin Fang, the terrifying sword qi surged forth, tearing towards the endless sword blossoms.
Puff puff puff~~~
But as the terrifying sword qi soared skyward, it spread instantly in mid-air, confronting the countless sword blossoms... The intense collision shook the surrounding world, as if the entire arena was trembling.
Puff~~
Soon after, Fang Buping seemed to suffer a heavy blow, his whole body lifted into the air, rapidly flying backward... At the same time, a mouthful of blood spilled from his mouth, tracing a graceful arc in the air.
Most importantly, the overwhelming sword blossoms thoroughly vanished... (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
