Towards the Path of Heaven

Chapter 180

Looking into the distance, one could clearly see that the sword spirit had landed violently on the lotus amidst the turbulent energy ripples. At the point of contact, dense cracks continuously spread towards the lotus body, and ear-piercing cracking sounds came from there.

Southern Region disciples could no longer bear to watch this scene. In their opinion, the lotus formation would definitely break apart. After the formation was broken, how could Yan Chutian withstand the power of Shilong spirit runes?

On the other hand, a cold smile appeared on the faces of the Northern Region disciples. In this situation, once the lotus formation was completely destroyed, the Southern Region Holy Son would not be able to turn things around.

Even Qiu Yu could not help but grit his teeth upon seeing this, and his slender figure was ready to shoot at any moment. No matter how many rules there were, if Yan Chutian was injured, he would not care about it.

The explosion! The explosion!

The turbulent energy was still wreaking havoc. After the 10 breaths stalemate, an ear-piercing sound rang out again. Looking up, the sword with spirit runes had cut through all the obstacles and headed straight for the figure in the middle of the rest of the lotus.

At the same time, even Shilong himself could not help but smile happily and complacently. No matter what, this absurd battle would end up in his hands….

But is it really going to happen?

As the spirit rune sword fell, Yan Chutian, who was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the lotus formation, opened his eyes as if he sensed something. The moment he opened his eyes, Spiritual Energy ripples spread out from the depths of his eyes. As the Spiritual Energy ripples rippled, a strange giant beast with flames appeared.

This giant beast seemed to sense the threat and took the initiative to rush out. It leaped out of Yan Chutian's eyes and appeared in the world.

This ... is the power of spirit runes!

However, this spiritual beast was so faint that most disciples could only see burning fireballs rushing towards Shilong's sword with spirit runes.

Then, a scene that shocked many people appeared. The powerful sword with spirit runes showed signs of burning into nothingness after the flames came out.

"How ... how is this possible ?!"

"What is that thing? It could actually burn the power of the Shilong spirit rune?!"

"How is this possible?!"

"…"

Countless cries echoed one after another. Whether it was a Southern Domain disciple or a Northern Domain disciple, no one could imagine that Shilong's attack was able to destroy the defense of Yan Chutian's large array a moment ago, but now, it was, his spirit rune attack was completely destroyed by Yan Chutian's attack.

"Chi chi…!"

As if lava was burning steel, hissing sounds kept ringing. Under the flames, the huge sword with spirit runes no longer had the slightest momentum. Under the continuous burning, it quickly retreated towards the stone dragon.

When the wide sword with spirit runes flew back into Shilong's body, Shilong suddenly shouted muffled. His body fell backwards as if he was hit by a heavy blow and fell deep into the arena.

At the same time, the flaming giant beast also flew back to Yan Chutian's body. Although Yan Chutian was not as shy as Shilong, his face was also pale.

Just now, when he broke through to the second level of the Elixir Realm, a strange pattern grew rapidly on the Elixir Realm in his dantian. Even Yan Chutian himself could not control the situation. He could only watch as spirit runes formed by themselves. In the end, even he himself did not know what kind of spirit rune he was connecting to. Obviously, it's incomplete. After all, the flaming giant beast that had just come out was illusory and had no real meaning from ordinary spirit runes.

But after all, when incomplete spirit runes appeared, they surprisingly defeated the Shilong spirit rune, which completely shocked Yan Chutian.

And it seemed like this fight had suddenly ended in such a situation. Shilong who fell into the arena had already fainted, whereas Yan Chutian was still standing in the arena. The results proved by themselves.

Therefore, at the next moment, many people cheered for Yan Chu's name. No one expected the final outcome of the fight to be like this. Shilong, who was chasing after Yan Chutian, suddenly fainted, letting Yan Chutian turn things around.

But not everyone, can not see the truth of the problem. For example, Qiu Yu, Luo Xue, Hong Gu, and the other top Holy Sons, as well as the elders from the Northern and Southern Regions, as well as Vice Sect Leader Zhu Yun.

They could clearly sense that the flames coming out of Yan Chutian's body were ultimately the power of the spirit runes. In other words, it was the third spirit rune of Yan Chutian!

The third spirit rune. A practitioner who had just broken through to the second level of the Elixir Realm had actually managed to form a third spiritual pattern. This is really too surprising.

One should know that even Hong Gu, who was rumored to have condensed the third spirit rune, was already at the fourth level of the Elixir Realm.

Therefore, from a certain point of view, doesn't that mean that Yan Chutian's talent is higher than Hong Gu's talent?!

But even if they had such thoughts, no one dared to say them out loud. Moreover, the disciples from the Northern Region continued to shake their heads after regaining consciousness. No matter what, they could not believe that the Holy Son of the Southern Region, who appeared out of nowhere, could be compared to the top Holy Son of the Northern Region.

However, even if they always thought that Yan Chutian could not compare to Hong Gu, they had no choice but to accept the reality before their eyes. Shilong, who was ranked in the top three in the Northern Region, had actually lost to the Holy Son of the Southern Region.

After a deadly silence, earth-shattering cheers in the Southern Region sounded continuously. Yan Chutian defeating Shilong was a pleasant surprise, but it also meant that the Southern Region had completely suppressed the Northern Region in this round. Compared to the previous round where it was balanced, this made them happier and more excited.

Some people are happy, while others are sad. The defeat of Shilong made the faces of the Northern Region disciples become gloomy. They felt the usual arrogance had been cruelly trampled under the feet of the Southern Region. This was an unbearable humiliation for them.

This atmosphere even made the faces of the Northern Region elders become gloomy. They did not say a word and did not have the slightest bit of calmness from before. The elders from the Northern Region who had mocked the Southern Region earlier did not even dare to raise their heads and look to the Southern Region. They can't lose face like that.

In short, this result was destined to make the entire Southern Region extremely happy. The names of Luo Xue, Qiu Yu, and Yan Chu would also be imprinted in the hearts of all Southern Region disciples.

Looking at Yan Chutian, who was in supreme glory, Xu Jian's expression looked lonely. Only now did she realize that this man, whom she had always looked down upon, had actually secretly surpassed her.

Looking back now, how cute was he!

Amidst the crowd of disciples, Zhou Qing could not help but feel happy and happy as he looked at the thin but majestic figure that was currently as big as a mountain. But when he was happy and excited, his mood unconsciously dropped.

As Yan Chutian continued to climb the mountain, the distance between the two continued to widen.

But in reality, they were separated by a deep abyss.

"Whoops... He's really hiding something!"

Dong Puti did not have complicated emotions like Zhou Qing. Seeing Yan Chutian climbing ever higher, he only felt excitement for her.

As for Qiu Yu, as Senior Brother Yan Chutian, he immediately flew out and rushed into the arena to help Yan Chutian get down. With his eyesight, how could he not see that Yan Chutian was clearly so weak right now? The strange spirit rune that suddenly appeared should have consumed too much of its power.

As he noticed, Yan Chutian could not gather much strength at the moment. His whole body is very weak. When he regained his senses, he knew how much power the spirit runes had consumed. Come to think of it, the third spirit rune possessed such frightening strength, Yan Chutian would not be able to accept it.

Aided down the arena by Qiu Yu without leaving a trace, Yan Chutian hurriedly consumed a small recovery Pill. Under the refinement of medicinal strength, his face gradually brightened. It was only then that he stood beside Qiu Yu and enjoyed the attention of the entire Tianji Sect along with Luo Xue.
