C24 The Sword Moves in the Wrong Direction
Almost all of them were carved into the instincts in his bones, and the palm print that seemed boundless and mighty was actually full of flaws, and it could be resolved with a single finger.
The dense aura of destruction pressed down on the palm print. No matter how shocking its size was, it was still a pile of loose sand in the end, and it was only an empty shell that remained after passing through the impact of the high temperature.
Sensing that the situation was not good, Lu Ping bit the tip of his tongue. He subconsciously wanted to use his own medicinal Blood Essence to save the situation, but he was unable to catch up to the speed at which the palm print collapsed.
Those Lingyu rushed forward like maggots that stuck to their bones. No matter what they said, they had to peel off a few portions of the Spiritual Energy before they were willing to give up. In the blink of an eye, the huge palm that was seven to eight meters long disappeared without a trace.
The whole place fell into silence, and the situation changed once again. This time, it had come too quickly, as if it had already been decided.
"Bastard! I want you to die!"
After losing his senses for a moment, Lu Ping let out a roar. He couldn't accept the fact that a nobody from a broken sect like the Qing Xuan Sect had defeated him in front of everyone.
However, the two tongues of fire that were twice as thick surrounded him like poisonous snakes that came out of a volcano. Their eyes were cold and their hearts were half cold, but their bodies felt unusually hot.
Speaking of which, this Dao fire was formed indirectly by him. Chen Fan was only in charge of adjusting his position.
"This match ends here. It's true that young men have outstanding talents. This old man agrees that Chen Fan can teach them a lesson."
The Great Elder had been paying close attention to the battle. The moment Lingyu appeared, he realized that something was wrong. He quickly stopped Lu Ping. If the battle continued, he might lose control of himself.
"You are smart. You didn't waste your talent. Unfortunately, you are too arrogant. You should experience more setbacks and sharpen yourself."
Chen Fan placed his hands behind his back and spoke in an elderly manner. He appeared even more steady than the few elders. However, his face revealed a little tenderness.
Lu Ping walked down the stage without saying a word. His face was green, but he could do nothing about it.
Even though his cultivation was not inferior to the direct disciples of the few elders, he was still not a match for this fellow. What else could he say?
The winner was the king, and the loser was the bandit. All the advantages lay with the victor.
In the end, Lu Fang, who had entered the arena, was proficient in the cultivation of his physical body. He looked thin, but his exposed skin revealed a strong bronze color. The lines of his muscles were clear, and he gave off an incomparable feeling of strength.
"Sigh, it's the physical body again. This battle will be difficult."
Chen Fan sighed for the first time. He did not look at Lu Fang, but instead remembered that he had paid a great price for his physical body at his peak.
Lu Fang walked over with quick steps. His fists were clenched so tightly that cracking sounds could be heard. He was only about seven feet tall, but he had startled a strong wind.
In stark contrast, Chen Fan was truly too weak, and it was even more like an egg striking a rock. Lu Ping had already launched a heavy punch.
Pop!
This was the sound of the fist wind piercing through the void. With such extreme speed, ordinary people were simply unable to produce Spiritual Energys that were even more powerful in defense.
Just like that, it smashed straight towards Chen Fan's shoulder. After all, there was no all-knowing existence. There would always be a relatively weak side.
This punch even produced a sonic boom. It probably had a force of at least a thousand kilograms. Just when the onlookers thought Chen Fan was defeated, they saw him slowly raise his hand and receive the fatal blow.
His body swayed slightly and he took two steps back. Then, his left palm heavily stomped down. In an instant, a huge pit appeared.
Although this body had not been tempered yet, Chen Fan naturally had a way to deal with it. Using softness to counter toughness, and circulating this energy along the surface of his skin, he could easily guide it out.
In a hurried battle, it could even directly reflect back into Lu Fang's body, pressing straight into his meridians, allowing him to try the taste of being injured by a fist wind.
Crack!
The entire martial arena was protected by the Spell Formation, so it wasn't easy for it to break through the ground. However, at this moment, there was a hole that was about three meters wide, and it was pitch black in front of everyone's eyes.
In terms of combat strength, it was still dependent on the scariness of a physical body cultivator. Lu Ping's previous attack might have reached this level, but it was forcefully neutralized by Chen Fan.
"So this kid's fleshly body isn't good. Senior brother Lu Fang has avenged the two senior brothers."
"Heh, I knew it. How could someone be so abnormal? In the end, he still gave himself away."
Seeing Chen Fan being humiliated, it undoubtedly made many disciples very excited. They thought that they had finally found the location of the Gate of Life.
Rumble!
Both sides had engaged in close combat. If one listened carefully, sounds similar to the rushing of a river could be heard from within Lu Fang's body. Clearly, his vitality was extremely vigorous.
This body had been sleeping for thousands of years, and there were many places where it had yet to fully awaken. Without using medicinal Spiritual Energys, the opponent did not seem to have the fiery temper that was easily provoked. Chen Fan had indeed fallen into a disadvantageous position.
However, he had been continuously pushing out palm prints, causing the wind to whistle, and using numbers and speed to stall Lu Fang. Although it was not a long-term plan, it could play a great buffer role.
In this way, Chen Fan had plenty of time to draw out external forces. Even if Lu Fang directly pierced through the sky, it would not affect him in the slightest. The only thing that was affected was the Martial Arts Practice Field.
The two of them were usually separated as soon as they touched each other. In a short few breaths of time, they were able to exchange over a hundred moves, and it caused the medicinal Formation Patterns on the martial arena to appear. They repaired the heavy punches that were practically falling down without a care, and the cracks on the ground were like spider webs.
"You're really very strong." Lu Fang said in a low voice, and his face still revealed shock. "But compared to me, you're still slightly lacking in skill."
Every time, it was a violent collision between the flesh and the flesh. The surface of the skin emitted a faint fluorescent light. It was simple and pure. It was extremely enjoyable to watch, but one could not help but feel a slight pain in the flesh.
The reason why all the disciples present had the same goal was that not only was Lu Fang's combat strength formidable, Chen Fan was also able to fight with him without falling into a disadvantageous position. The two of them exchanged fierce blows.
This time, they no longer came to a conclusion. There were a total of three senior brothers, but they had lost two matches in a row. If anything were to happen to them, the Hua Ding Sect's reputation would be completely wiped out.
The so-called 'four hundred and twenty thousand pounds' was precisely because they were looking for an opportunity amidst the constant changes. The cycle of heaven and earth had lost the 'one' that had escaped.
In a desperate situation, there was always a chance to stir it up. Even the greatest ability would have to submit to this line. Only Chen Fan could understand such a profound principle. Even the few elders had failed to reach this level.
The battle continued. Not only were every move fatal, it was also bone-deep. If it was any other cultivator, they would have already been smashed into meat paste by Lu Fang. There were many unsolvable situations, and Chen Fan was still standing there in perfect condition.
Never had it happened before. It didn't take long before someone noticed something unusual. The latter was clearly moving slowly. And yet each hit hit hit a vital point. Even a slight touch from the tip of one's finger would be able to repel Lu Fang's Iron Palm Copper Fist, forcing him to retract his strength.
It didn't seem like two young men were fighting fiercely. Putting aside the similarities between their appearances, the two figures intersected with each other, and it felt as if an elder was guiding the younger generation instead.
On the other hand, Lu Fang had expended a great deal of strength. The ground was almost completely cracked by him, yet he didn't even touch the corner of the other party's clothes. The difference between them was obvious.
"Phew, I lost." After an hour of wear and tear, Lu Fang couldn't hold on any longer, and he said while panting heavily.
The path of the physical body that he relied on the most was that his foundation was not bad, but he was led by the nose bit by bit and exhausted his strength. Even he himself did not dare to believe it.
"Since you've chosen to take the unconventional path, don't talk about him anymore. Just focus on tempering the physical body. This path will definitely have a lot of accomplishments."
The first two had spoken a few words, but in the end, they couldn't neglect Lu Fang.
"Alien Minister Chen has a high opinion. This junior has learned a thing or two."
Unexpectedly, after hearing Chen Fan's words, the latter did not show any impatience. Instead, he cupped his hands and expressed his thanks. His tone was even more respectful.
"Oh, since your attitude isn't bad, I'll give you another gift." Chen Fan pointed at his own head and said.
"Using Heavenly Thunders to open up the Baihui acupoint, as long as you have the guts, your future accomplishments will definitely far surpass those two pieces of rotten wood."
This sort of cultivation method was simply unheard of. After all, it was one of the greatest acupoints of the human body, and the might of medicinal Heavenly Thunders was even more needless to say. The two of them collided with each other, and it was likely that they were courting death.
Everyone revealed looks of disdain. If they had some common sense, they wouldn't believe such a suggestion. It seemed like it was brilliant, but it was actually hypocritical.
"Alright, junior will remember it." Lu Fang bowed deeply, and he was as sincere as he could be, and it caused the jaws of everyone in the surroundings to drop to the ground.
He was quite open-minded, and similarly didn't take those discussions to heart.
No matter how unpleasant his words were and what status he took to be, as long as it was helpful to increase his strength, he was a good person.
"Today's sparring session will end here. Everyone, focus on your cultivation. In the future, when Chen Fan comes to guide you, if you continue to be in such a bad shape, it will be a disgrace to the Hua Ding Sect."
Nangong Yi personally announced the results. Everyone left the martial arena in shock, but they were able to kill all the disciples of the Qing Xuan Sect in their own territory. None of them felt good about it.
"Wait a moment!"
At this moment, an elder suddenly stood out and shouted at Chen Fan. Everyone turned their eyes to him.
"I'm not afraid of anything. This marriage is very important. It's not enough to just have our approval. We need to get the approval of our ancestors."
The one who spoke was the Sixth Elder of the Hua Ding Sect. He had a fiery temper and was known for his honesty. If not, he should be able to get into the top three positions in front of the sect.
From his words, Nangong Yi and the Great Elder had been avoiding mentioning the marriage. This kind of matter had to be slowly spread in the Sect before it could be confirmed.
In the end, this old man had pointed it out with a single sentence, causing many disciples to cry out in shock. How could they not know that Sect Leader and the others had already made the decision to marry the Qing Xuan Sect?
"Sect Leader, you have to give us an explanation. If we were caught by that broken ship, wouldn't we be dragged down?"
"That's right. We were supposed to be fine. The Qing Xuan Sect is obviously trying to climb higher. We can't fall for it."
The crowd immediately exploded. They looked at Chen Fan as if they had a deep hatred for him. They were worried that the alliance with the Qing Xuan Sect would affect their own interests.
