Towards the Path of Heaven

Chapter 170

As the spirit runes activated, a living holy stork descended from the sky. The stork spread its wings, and a huge wave of spiritual energy flowed out. It was hard to imagine how powerful a spiritual inscription would be if the stork launched an attack.

"Forcing Jin Lan to use the spirit rune, the Southern Region's Holy Son must be at his limit."

"I heard that the Southern Region's Holy Son also condensed spirit runes. Although I don't know if it's true or not, so what if he condensed spirit runes? He's no match for Jin Lan."

"Squeezing spirit runes might be fake. Even if it was truly condensed, it must have been extremely weak. I just did not expect that the Southern Region Holy Son would be defeated by these spirit runes. I fear that the so-called Holy Son is a fake."

"…"

When the spirit runes were activated, the disciples from the Northern Region revealed their arrogance again. According to them, the activation of spirit runes would determine the outcome of the battle. The strength of Jin Lan was so strong that even the Holy Son of the Northern Region who was at the third level of the Elixir Realm was no match for it, let alone a person from the Southern Region who was only at the first level.

Even if he had shown some amazing things, it was impossible for him to turn things around on the power of spirit runes.

At the same time, the disciples from the Southern Region, who were happy because of Yan Chutian's appearance, were again alarmed. After all, Jin Lan was at the fourth level of the Elixir Realm. With such cultivation, the spirit runes he kept on condensing were much stronger than the spirit runes of Zhou Xuan and Ye Qing.

Therefore, even if Yan Chutian's spirit runes could gain an advantage in front of Zhou Xuan and Ye Qing, it would become too weak in front of Jin Lan.

And if he could not win in terms of spiritual inscriptions, even if Yan Chutian's battle with Jin Lan was incredible, it would be worth it. In the end, he would not be able to escape defeat.

The disciples from the Southern Region were tense at the moment.

Seeing his opponent activate the spirit rune, Yan Chutian's expression was normal. Even if Jin Lan's spirit runes were stronger than Zhou Xuan and Ye Qing, he wasn't unprepared.

He had never given up on refining spirit runes and had worked on them every day. Moreover, after successfully cultivating the Mysterious Flame Qi Condensation, Yan Chutian was surprised to find that the Mysterious Flame Qi Condensation actually had a beneficial effect on condensing his spirit runes.

As a result, the seemingly short half-month period had made his spirit runes much stronger than when he was fighting Ye Qing.

Without saying much, after turning his gaze over, Yan Chutian, who closed his eyes, also activated the power of the spirit runes in his dantian. Strange strands of pattern appeared in his eyes, and then condensed into the shape of a giant sword. When he opened his eyes, it was projected between heaven and earth.

Like a red-crowned stork with spirit runes, the appearance of a gigantic sword with spirit runes attracted countless attention. This was not the first time that many Southern Region disciples had seen these spirit runes. At this moment, they were all terrified. As for the Northern Region disciples who were unfamiliar with this sword-shaped spirit rune, although they did not know what it was, they still looked at it with disdain.

In their opinion, Yan Chutian's spirit rune was definitely not a match for Jin Lan's spirit rune. There are gaps of three small realms. How did the spirit runes solidified by such a gap compare to Jin Lan's spirit runes?

"Did he really condense spirit runes...?"

Glancing at the sword-shaped spirit rune that appeared between heaven and earth, Jin Lan said indifferently, and then a trace of humiliation appeared on her face. Just like those Northern Region disciples, he underestimated the spirit runes summarized by Yan Chutian, but he knew the power of his own red crown crane spirit rune.

Therefore, he had even predicted the following results. When his spirit runes collided with the sword-shaped spirit runes, his sword-shaped spirit runes would not last for a moment and would soon be defeated and scattered.

Thinking of this, Jin Lan did not hesitate and immediately shouted in a low voice. As he shouted, the crimson-crowned stork spread its wings, and an aura stronger than before surged out. The disciples who watched could not hold their breath. Jin Lan truly had the right to be arrogant.

The red-crowned crane spread its wings and pounced. At this moment, Yan Chutian was also manipulating his spirit runes. A sword-shaped spirit inscription shot into the sky and slashed the red-crowned crane that pounced on him.

"Bang!"

"explosion!"

Everyone's eyes turned to the center of the collision, where there was a dazzling spirit light. But despite being dazzling, everyone could still vaguely see that the two great spirit runes were constantly attacking each other, trying to defeat each other. Therefore, the situation was deadlocked.

However, this result was clearly beyond the expectations of many people. This was because many people thought that Jin Lan should be stronger than Yan Chutian, especially in terms of spirit rune power. But looking at the current situation, it seemed like the two of them were balanced.

"explosion!"

The continuous attacks finally stopped after the roar. After the light faded, the spirit runes in front of Yan Chutian disappeared. The red-crowned crane spirit runes were still there, but the light was much fainter than before.

This made the disciples of the Northern Region, who had just found it difficult to accept it, secretly sigh in relief. If they were truly matched again, it would really make them feel uncomfortable.

At the same time, Jin Lan also quietly relaxed her tense mind. When it had just collided, even he did not expect that it would be balanced. Fortunately, after the continuous attacks, his own advantages were also revealed. Although the other party's spirit rune was strange, it wasn't as dense as his.

But he had no idea that Yan Chutian who was facing such a situation was not nervous at all. If he did not cultivate the Mysterious Fire Qi Technique, the current situation might really be troublesome for him. But right now, he had no such worries.

Yan Chutian focus. After closing his eyes for a few seconds, the huge spirit rune was projected again. If this spirit rune was the second spirit rune that Yan Chutian had used before, it would be fine. But these spirit runes were clearly the previous spirit runes on that gigantic sword.

In other words, the spirit rune that Jin Lan had just destroyed, Yan Chutian actually used it again!

This scene immediately triggered a huge wave in everyone's heart, even the disciples in the Northern Region were no exception. Since everyone knew that the crushed spirit runes could no longer be used in a short period of time, but Yan Chutian actually used his own spirit runes again in a short period of time. How did he do it?!

"This …"

Some of the Northern Region elders were also stunned, unable to comprehend this scene. At the same time, the Southern Region Elder also showed a shocked expression, especially Han Chen. After being surprised, he inexplicably smiled, with a strong sense of helplessness in his smile.

Yan Chutian was like a variable. He was able to break the convention many times, creating one after another an astonishing sight. It was at that moment that Han Chen felt that perhaps he had always underestimated Yan Chutian. This person, who was ignored due to Mu Wan's comparison, was clearly not as simple as it looked on the surface.

The gigantic sword spirit rune appeared again, and that was also when the smile on Jin Lan's face gradually froze. He can't understand. Just now, his opponent's spirit rune was clearly destroyed by him. How could he still use it now?

However, Jin Lan was not a hesitant person. In the moment of shock, he was conscious. Then, with a grim look, he said coldly, "I don't care how you pretend to be mysterious, but since I can destroy your spirit runes once, there will be a second time. I want to see how many times you can use these spirit runes!"

Before his voice disappeared, Jin Lan activated that huge spirit rune again. The stork spread its wings and rushed out with incredible momentum, directly towards Yan Chutian.

However, in the face of such an attack, Yan Chutian's reaction was simple. He was still activating his spirit runes. The huge sword shot up high, and then slashed down the running immortal stork!

The result this time was destined to exceed everyone's expectations. It was still the same collision of spirit runes, but this time, under the impact of the collision, the stork with the spirit rune was the first to show signs of collapse. On the other hand, although the light of the great spirit rune continued to dim, it showed no signs of collapsing.

"Boom…!"

Finally, the spirit rune stork completely collapsed, turning into light runes and rushing back to Jin Lan's body. Jin Lan's reaction to the collapse of the spirit rune was much greater than Yan Chutian's reaction. Moreover, he knew clearly that he was unable to activate these spirit runes in a short period of time.
