Chapter 2485 - 1979: Sword Domain!

Second update, asking for subscriptions and monthly tickets~~~...

"This… let him decide for himself!"

Qing Xu Lao Dao's brows also furrowed slightly as he looked down at Qin Fang on the arena with a strange gaze, faintly feeling that something was off somewhere, but he also truly felt that Leng Cuiyun's words were quite reasonable.

If it were any other time, Qing Xu Lao Dao would absolutely, just like Leng Cuiyun, suggest that Qin Fang break through to Great Grandmaster Level on his own…

Not only would this give him extremely strong momentum for future development, it would also be of huge benefit for his future breakthrough to the Supreme Realm, allowing it to be easier, smoother… one could even say it would increase his success rate by at least twenty to thirty percent.

However, Qing Xu Lao Dao knew that this was a decision he couldn't make for this disciple…

Qin Fang had only just joined the Kunlun Sect, and so far hadn't gotten any benefits; his sense of belonging to this Sect was practically zero… if they had Qin Fang give up even the most basic benefits from the Five Sects Grand Competition, then Qing Xu Lao Dao really couldn't guarantee whether Qin Fang might not storm off and defect from the Kunlun Sect in anger.

For an ordinary disciple, once he defected from the Sect, most of the time he'd be beaten to death with cudgels…

But for a genius disciple like Qin Fang, other Sects, such as Tianwai Tower and Tianya Haige, would absolutely be scrambling over each other to get him… they would naturally also shoulder the crime of defection for Qin Fang, and the Kunlun Sect probably wouldn't even dare to fart about it.

So, although Qing Xu Lao Dao had this kind of thought, he wouldn't take the initiative to say it to Qin Fang, so as not to trigger some unnecessary misunderstandings…

What's more, with Qin Fang's monstrous talent, in reality whether he used the Barbaric Wilderness Mini Secret Realm to break through or did it on his own, the result wouldn't actually differ too much… one option was fighting for more time for himself, the other was trading time for an advantage after the breakthrough!

As for the success rate of breaking through to the Supreme Realm… that didn't even need to be mentioned.

Qin Fang had already comprehended the Vitality Secret Sword, which showed he could already use elemental energy… and elemental energy was a shortcut that many Great Master Peak Level experts used to break through to the Supreme Realm; Qin Fang had already stepped onto this path early on.

Of course, perhaps precisely because Qin Fang comprehended it so early, the aftereffects brought by using elemental energy to break into the Supreme Realm would cause him the least damage, one could even say practically none at all…

Because Qin Fang had enough time to harmonize with the elemental energy in his body, by the time he broke through, that elemental energy might long since have fused completely with the Gang Qi in his body, indistinguishable from each other, so naturally there would be no real harm!

"You old ox-nosed bastard… you've been such a wimp your whole life!"

Leng Cuiyun couldn't help but fiercely despise him, snorting a few words. She was an outsider, so naturally she couldn't know the true relationship between Qin Fang and the Kunlun Sect… perhaps after the Five Sects Grand Competition ended, once they collected the relevant information, they'd understand Qing Xu Lao Dao's difficulties.

"Humph…"

After getting cursed like that by Leng Cuiyun, Qing Xu Lao Dao could only pinch his nose and endure it. He couldn't possibly stoop to argue with this woman; who didn't know this old hag was notorious in the Martial World as "Evil-Scaring Needle," to the point that even Supreme Realm Powerhouses had to give way to her a bit.

Buzz~~~

While Leng Cuiyun and Qing Xu Lao Dao were chatting idly and bickering, something unusual happened down below… after Qin Fang erupted with that terrifying aura, Li Wuhua naturally also unleashed the most frightening Strength he had.

The onlookers only felt a buzzing in their ears, and then realized that a bizarre power had spread out from Li Wuhua's body… the range didn't seem very large, it didn't even fully cover the arena.

But this strange power still made everyone present unconsciously frown… among them naturally included Qin Fang, Li Wuhua's opponent, and Qin Fang was even standing right at the very center.

This uncanny feeling made alarms blare in Qin Fang's heart; his eyes stared at Li Wuhua opposite him in utter shock… the expression on his face was more serious than ever before, as if he had encountered some unimaginably terrifying situation.

"This is…"

Most people didn't know this move of Li Wuhua's, but how could the Paramount Experts seated on the high platform possibly not recognize it?

Among the few Paramount Experts, aside from Chu Feiyun, all their expressions changed drastically; the one whose expression looked the ugliest was Qing Xu Lao Dao of the Kunlun Sect.

"Sword Domain!"

A deep surprise flashed in Qing Xu Lao Dao's eyes, and his expression became slightly bitter as he softly spat out these two words.

"Now I finally get why Chu Kuangren would break his own rules and take Li Wuhua as his closed-door disciple… this kid is just too monstrous, isn't he?"

Although Leng Cuiyun's expression wasn't as bad as Qing Xu Lao Dao's, she was still full of shock, muttering under her breath, then turning her head to look at Chu Feiyun. "Hey, Fatty, this kid Li seems to be not even thirty yet, right?"

"Twenty-nine!"

Chu Feiyun seemed to have already anticipated this, and answered with complete calm.

"Hiss…"

This answer also made the surrounding Supreme powerhouses involuntarily suck in a breath of cold air.

They were all already experts at the Supreme Middle Stage now, but each of them was over seventy or eighty years old, and back in their youth they had also been top-tier genius disciples, once the elites of their various Sects.

But if they really compared themselves, then at Li Wuhua's current age, they'd probably only be on the level of the "Lawless and Unruly" brothers, Leng Bingbing, Dragon Elephant Dharma King and the others… they were still far inferior to a freak like Li Wuhua.

Of course, compared to an even more monstrous freak like Qin Fang, they felt like dying…

"What a pity… if Qin Xiaozi were a few years older, I'm afraid that kid Li would really lose!"

Although by now they had basically decided that Li Wuhua's victory was a sure thing, they still wouldn't deny that Qin Fang was indeed even more monstrous than Li Wuhua… because Qin Fang was younger, only twenty years old.

When these Supreme powerhouses were twenty, they had probably just stepped into Grandmaster Level… at most barely reached the Grandmaster Realm, but compared to Qin Fang's current Realm of Peak Grandmaster, with combat strength at Great Master Peak Level, they were simply far, far inferior.

"Big Monk, your Shaolin can finally catch your breath now…"

Leng Cuiyun squinted her eyes in a smile and snorted at Master Kongwen, the Shaolin Fangzhang sitting to the side who hadn't spoken a word all this time. The "huge" wager Qin Fang had made back then had always been a mountain pressing on Shaolin's head.

Now that Li Wuhua had displayed an advantage far surpassing Qin Fang, the outcome of the battle seemed already decided, and the Shaolin side could finally relax a bit… at least they didn't have to worry about losing everything down to the last penny.

"The winner's not decided yet. It's still too early to be saying this…"

Master Kongwen, the Big Monk, put his palms together and spoke with a smiling face… he looked quite humble, but from his eyes, expression, tone and so on, it was obvious that this old monk was indeed much more at ease; he was just saying something nice for form's sake.

"Hmph… it's just a mere Sword Domain, Qin Fang won't necessarily lose!"

Hearing Leng Cuiyun and Master Kongwen's conversation, Qing Xu Lao Dao instead felt a bit displeased, and snorted in annoyance.

"A mere Sword Domain… hehe!"

The always-suppressed Master E Zha Duo seized the opportunity and let out a yin-yang, sarcastic snort.

Almost all Great Grandmaster Level Experts knew that once they broke the stillness and stepped into the Supreme Realm, they could condense their own Gangqi Territory… this was the true fundamental source of a Supreme Realm powerhouse's strength.

No matter how strong the defense of the Supreme Realm was, it could still be broken; but the power of the Gangqi Territory… allowed them to become something close to a "god" within a certain range, and that was true power.

The Sword Domain was the Domain of the Sword…

Although it didn't count as a true Gangqi Territory, it was already a semi-finished pseudo-domain.

Facing a real Gangqi Territory, such a pseudo-domain was naturally worth nothing, but used against experts below the Supreme Realm, there was hardly any difference from a Gangqi Territory… in fact, such a pseudo-domain could even kill a Half-step Supreme Expert who had yet to truly step into the Supreme Realm!

The Domain of the Sword was a special kind of pseudo-domain comprehended by Sword Cultivator Experts… it required comprehending Sword Qi, Sword Aura, and Sword Intent to extremely high levels, and then, through some special opportunities, one could trigger this kind of pseudo-domain.

Li Wuhua clearly hadn't stepped into the Supreme Realm yet, but he possessed a terrifying talent that many Great Grandmaster Level Experts wouldn't even dare to imagine; he had actually comprehended the Domain of the Sword in advance… it could be said that just this Domain of the Sword alone was enough to make Li Wuhua the number one expert below the Supreme Realm.

Even those Half-Step Supreme Realm Experts might be killed by Li Wuhua in a head-on clash… without a true Territory to suppress the Domain of the Sword, they simply couldn't break through the Sword Domain's powerful suppression, and naturally it would be very hard to defeat Li Wuhua.

"Damn it, this Li Wuhua… is way too freakish, isn't he?"

"So it's true… when he fought us, he probably didn't even use thirty percent of his Strength!"

Jian Qingfeng, Monk Wu Fa and the others muttered, their faces full of depression, feeling that the gap between them and Li Wuhua had suddenly gone from a small river to a great river, a blow that was quite cruel.

It wasn't enough to crush their spirits into depression, but it definitely left them somewhat disheartened.

Of course, they had already been hit by Li Wuhua before; this current blow, though heavy, wasn't enough to completely knock them down… instead, when they looked at Qin Fang, they suddenly felt their eyes light up.

"Right, that kid Qin Fang isn't some easy piece of work either…"

At this moment they also remembered that Li Wuhua's opponent was Qin Fang… Qin Fang, who was just as monstrously freakish, who had started learning the Chaotic Fist Technique together with them, yet in just a few hours had cultivated it to a level that even a Supreme powerhouse like Blue-wing Bat King Wei Chunqiu felt ashamed of; could this kid lose so easily?
