Chapter 381 - Defeating Xu Jing

Xu Jing tapped into the power of the seventh layer of the Three Heavens Golden Ksetra Cultivation Technique, emanating a ferocious aura. It seemed like she could kill anyone who stood in her way.

Those lacking mental fortitude would find their legs turning to jelly, compelled to kneel and beg for mercy under her oppressive aura.

Chen Fan could feel the aura trying to shake his mind and make him submit to her.

However, Chen Fan remained unmoved like a reef.

Xu Jing, her eyes glinting, twisted on her feet, and primeval force burst out from them, propelling her. Then, she punched left and right with tremendous strength that could shatter the stars.

“Good timing!”

Seeing this, a light burst out from Chen Fan’s eyes. He withdrew instead of advancing and counterattacked instead of dodging.

Chen Fan began revolving the Myriad Elephants Divine Art. Terrifying strength coursed through him, gushing and gathering within his flesh and blood. The strength finally left through his fists.

Crack!

Their fists collided; it was like two mountains had crashed into each other. It set off a fierce whirlwind and ripples spread out.

The entire arena fell into chaos.

Xu Jing gasped in surprise in her heart again.

She had used the power of the seventh layer of the Three Heavens Golden Ksetra Cultivation Technique—she could destroy a mountain with each punch. Even Illusory Core realm experts with a similar conversion rate as her would spew blood from her punch and surrender right away.

When their punches had met, she felt the power rushing in from the other side. It made her mind tremble, and she struggled to keep herself together.

"Ah, I see now why you were so confident. You’re quite strong. Well then, I won't hold back anymore. Three Heavens Golden Ksetra Cultivation Technique, eighth layer, open!”

Xu Jing realized that she couldn’t defeat him while relying on the power of the seventh layer alone. She immediately brought out the powers of the eighth layer, and a second halo appeared at the back of her head.

With the two halos, one large and one small, overlapping each other, her strength surged, intensifying her aura.

She unleashed a punch, and the surrounding windstorm immediately stopped, leaving the air undisturbed.

“Demons Fall!”

The Demon Subduing Divine Fist was a top upper-profound tier martial skill. The power of its final move was especially noteworthy, comparable to a lower-earth tier martial skill. The move finally made Chen Fan feel pressured.

Boundless golden light rushed toward Chen Fan like a waterfall, carrying tremendous might that could pierce through space.

“Undefeated King!”

Chen Fan used the final move of Undefeated King’s Fist. A terrifying force surged like a mountain flood, gushing out with vibrations that were like thunderclaps, colliding with Xu Jing’s fist.

Rumble!

A deafening noise resounded. The resultant engulfed them and erupted.

However, Chen Fan emerged from the storm as he retreated. The difference in power between their techniques had been so great that he had to retreat.

Impressive

. Chen Fan thought.

Xu Jing was undoubtedly as strong as Xin Wuming.

He had no feuds with Xu Jing. If he had used his iron spear and executed Prairie Fire Hundred Strikes, he could have easily destroyed Xu Jing’s move.

The storm calmed down, and Xu Jing appeared. Looking at Chen Fan, she said, “How is it? I can already suppress you by using the power of the eighth layer of the Three Heavens Golden Ksetra Cultivation technique. Your defeat is certain once I bring forth the ninth layer. So, it’s better if you surrender. My target is Yuan Kun and the others and getting first place in this competition!”

Chen Fan shook his head and said, “Senior Sister, you are indeed very strong, but you can’t defeat me. Bring out your full strength; show me exactly how strong the ninth layer is.”

Xu Jing shook her head and said, “The eighth layer is enough to suppress you. Why do I need to use the ninth layer? You’re still not qualified for me to use it.”

A sharp light flashed across Chen Fan’s eyes. “In that case, Senior Sister, please excuse me.”

With those words, he summoned his iron spear with a swift motion of his hand. His aura skyrocketed, and he stepped forward. He shot forth like an eagle hunting a rabbit, fierce winds whistling.

“Prairie Fire Hundred Strikes!”

Chen Fan moved his arm. The iron spear instantly turned into numerous silhouettes, covering the sky. It was as if tens of meteors were falling into the world to destroy it, bringing about the apocalypse.

Xu Jing raised her eyebrows, immediately sensing intense danger. Her cultivation surged and erupted as she executed her strongest move again.

“Demons Fall!”

Rumble!

A deafening explosion rang out. The space rippled, and all sorts of terrifying storms raged on.

Thud, thud, thud!

The attack knocked back Xu Jing.

Chen Fan waved his arm, his power erupting, and suppressed the space. The calm returned as he stood with his spear, looking at Xu Jing. “How is it, Senior Sister? You can now bring out your full strength, right?”

“Alright!” Xu Jing’s expression became incomparably grave. Without any hesitation, she channeled her cultivation, bringing about another layer to the halo at the back of her head.

The overlapping halos, from large to small, elevated Xu Jing's aura to its zenith, resembling a martial goddess in battle.

“To think a mere martial artist at the ninth level would force me to use the powers of the ninth layer... I was saving it to deal with those four, but here it is.” Xu Jing looked at Chen Fan calmly.

“It’s my honor.” Chen Fan smiled.

Although Xu Jing’s aura was very powerful now, he still didn’t feel all that threatened.

“Are you prepared to accept defeat?” Xu Jing narrowed her eyes, her gaze incomparably sharp.

“Come!” Chen Fan said decisively, his aura flourished.

“Demons Fall!”

Xu Jing unleashed a fierce onslaught, emitting a piercing whistle as a terrifying force descended, capable of shattering mountains, stars, or even rending space itself.

Woo, woo, woo. Woo, woo, woo...

Whistles rang out as the air currents ravaged wildly. Explosions boomed repeatedly.

This punch was truly Xu Jing’s strongest move. Nothing could come close.

“This is the end, Senior Sister.”

A brilliant light flashed in Chen Fan’s eyes as he moved simultaneously.

Raising his arm, he thrust violently with the iron spear, the sound of space being pierced sending shivers down observers' spines.

Pop, pop. Pop, pop, pop...

Explosions rang out endlessly, and the entire space shook violently. The people in the outside world trembled in fear.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang...

Suddenly, Chen Fan’s spear tip pierced through the storm, pointing straight at Xu Jing’s throat.

Swish!

A screen with numerous layers suddenly appeared around Xu Jing, shielding her.

It tried to stop the spear. However, Chen Fan’s attack wasn’t that easy to stop.

Each layer of the screen shattered until, with a resounding crack, the final barrier gave way. Xu Jing's defense broke.

With practiced ease, Chen Fan withdrew his iron spear, standing calmly on the opposite side as he pronounced, "You've lost, Senior Sister."
