Where does that wicked woman get her conscience?

Chapter 251 Battle with Zhuge Yunzheng

They even cut off all her hair.

As Guan Xun lowered her eyes, Zhuge Yunzheng's figure, which had been flying over, appeared mysteriously behind her in the blink of an eye.

He drew back the two yin-yang sword rings deeply embedded in the ground into his hand, then swung them violently, aiming straight for several vital points on Guan Xun's back.

"Bang, bang!"

Although Zhuge Yunzhen was fast, before the Yin-Yang Blade Ring could land on Guan Xun, it was easily blocked by a spiritual energy barrier that suddenly appeared.

The Yin-Yang Blade Ring clashed with the spiritual energy barrier, causing a violent tremor.

After his attack failed, Zhuge Yunzheng's expression changed slightly. Startled, he quickly retreated, creating a safe distance between himself and Guan Xun, fearing that the other party might catch him off guard.

His fiery red spiritual energy coiled around the Yin-Yang Blade Rings like venomous snakes. With a flick of his wrist, the two blade rings bypassed the condensed spiritual energy barrier like lightning, launching a fierce pincer attack from both sides of Guan Xun towards the center.

"Whoa!"

The violent sound of wind breaking through the air seemed to tear the air apart, accompanied by a low sonic boom, as if it wanted to crush people to pieces on the spot without showing any mercy.

Guan Xun flipped his hands, and icy spiritual energy surged up from both sides with a whoosh. This time, it was no longer for defense, but transformed into two huge ice blocks, which smashed head-on towards the Yin-Yang Blade Ring that was charging towards him.

The strong gust of wind generated by the collision made her hair fly wildly, and even managed to knock back Zhuge Yunzheng, who was standing at a distance.

If it weren't for the protective energy shield on the competition stage, such force would probably have affected the surrounding audience.

As she swung her hand outward, the impact of the ice blocks became more and more violent. She leaped high into the air, quickly leaving the center of the attack and landing some distance away.

At the same time, his thin lips parted slightly: "Fall."

The two ice blocks that were blocking the way instantly vanished into the air like smoke. The force of the two Yin-Yang sword rings was not enough to weaken in time, and the two collided fiercely with each other the moment the ice blocks disappeared.

"Bang!"

The deafening roar sent the two Yin-Yang sword rings flying back the way they came, propelled by the shockwave.

Zhuge Yunzheng was shocked to see this. He took a heavy step forward, then used the force to lift himself up, rolled in the air, and landed where Guan Xun had just stood.

The two Yin-Yang sword rings struck back to his previous standing point at extremely high speed, startling Zhuge Yunzheng so much that he couldn't catch his breath for a long time.

If one is hit by two Yin-Yang Blade Rings at the same time, the damage would be enough to seriously injure a person, and might even cripple them. It seems that wielding two Yin-Yang Blade Rings at the same time is still a bit difficult for me.

He silently exhaled, took the two Yin-Yang sword rings back into his hands, and frowned as he felt the chill still lingering beneath his feet.

Since this person can simultaneously activate the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes, it is enough to show that the other party, like him, possesses dual attributes of ice and fire. However, we only see him using the ice attribute right now. Why is that?

He cast a slightly puzzled glance ahead, but before his gaze had even met Guan Xun's, Guan Xun slowly spoke, his voice carrying an ethereal quality that seemed to come from afar—it was a transmission of spiritual energy.

"You are nothing more than that."

His tone was flat, and seemed to carry a hint of teasing.

Zhuge Yunzheng's face twitched instantly, and his eyes suddenly turned somewhat fierce. No one had ever criticized him like this before.

He clenched his back teeth, and the two attributes of ice and fire, like the churning ice in the Yin-Yang Well, surged out of his body like magma. They shot into the sky, looking like two pillars of light standing in the air, and his aura suddenly surged.

At this moment, Zhuge Yunzheng's aura alone was enough to match Guan Xun's hidden strength level. In the eyes of those who could roughly see through cultivation levels, the two on the field were almost at the same level.

Sensing this powerful aura, the people in the surrounding seats exclaimed in surprise, and many recalled the previous battle.

No wonder Duan Qingxi lost... Zhuge Yunzheng has quite a few hidden tricks up her sleeve.

Such talent is probably much higher than Duan Qingxi's. As long as he has enough time to cultivate, he will surely become an unparalleled expert in the future.

Seeing this, Duan Qingxi, who was still recovering from her injuries, felt a surge of resentment in her eyes. Had her opponent not used their full strength during their fight? Or was she simply too weak…?

"Another secret technique." Guan Xun raised an eyebrow and murmured as he looked at Zhuge Yunzheng, who was enveloped in powerful spiritual energy.

Is some kind of secret technique as common as cabbage? The resources in this True Inheritance Hall are so good? It seems there must be a lot of treasures.

"No matter what, I must win the championship." Zhuge Yunzheng's face was ashen, with a hint of extreme madness in it.

"Is that so?" Guan Xun said slowly. Since that's the case, let's finish this quickly. If we drag this out any longer, someone with ulterior motives will surely discover something about her strength.

Just as her thoughts settled, Zhuge Yunzheng suddenly clasped her hands together, each holding a different elemental spiritual power, and then rapidly formed an unidentified hand seal.

He stomped his feet heavily to the side! The spiritual energy on his body moved with each step, directly causing a long trench to appear in the ground.

"You may not have noticed the competition before, but my Yin-Yang Blood Shadow is the nemesis of the Spirit Sword." As he uttered this, the two Yin-Yang Blade Rings instantly disintegrated on the left and right sides, forming several Yin-Yang Blade Illusions with different spiritual powers. In a flash, a terrifying spiritual aura enveloped them, making each blade appear to have the aura of world destruction.

The fire blade carried terrifyingly high temperatures, but its aura always seemed somewhat restrained. In contrast, the ice blade's fluctuating arc was extremely strange, almost filling the entire arena, with a chilling coldness emanating from its white light.

Guan Xun narrowed his eyes, his gaze quickly sweeping over the several Yin-Yang blades. Presumably, Zhuge Yunzheng's main cultivation was ice attribute. The power of this move was indeed not weak. If he had used this move when he fought Duan Qingxi before, the latter would probably have already become a cold corpse.

As for dealing with her... I'm still a bit too weak.

When it comes to her mastery of ice and fire attributes, if she claims to be second, no one dares to claim to be first.

Guan Xun gripped the hilt of her sword tightly, and ice crystals condensed beneath her feet. As she circulated her spiritual energy, it coiled around the sword, creating streaks of sword shadows. The sword hummed, clearly indicating that she was ready for battle.

Seeing the Yin-Yang blade flying towards her, a cold glint flashed in her eyes as she met it head-on with her longsword, now brimming with spiritual energy! She wanted to see just how magical this self-proclaimed sword-killer technique was.

The overwhelming barrage of ice and fire yin-yang blades shot towards them at lightning speed. As Guan Xun raised his sword to parry, crisp sounds erupted continuously. Each collision carried a massive energy fluctuation that quickly spread outwards, even causing the energy shield covering the arena to tremble.

The crowd watched the dazzling and intense battle unfold in the arena, and a great deal of noise erupted around them.

No one expected Zhuge Yunzheng to have such explosive power, and no one could have predicted that such a beautiful woman could not be at a disadvantage under such an offensive. With such strength, she really has a chance to compete for the championship.

Zhuge Zhao was so shocked he almost stood up. His elder brother's strength was quite formidable, and he hadn't expected anyone to be able to match him. He couldn't help but murmur in surprise, "My elder sister is truly amazing."

He was right before; he is indeed far from good enough and needs more practice.

And in the high seats.

Zhuge Tianxia paused slightly on the armrest, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the armrest as his gaze fell on the center of the room, a hint of seriousness creeping into his eyes.

The previously casual palace lords slowly sat up straight. One of them paused for a second while stroking his beard, his eyes darkening: "The Yin-Yang Blood Shadow technique originally had a very obvious restraining effect on sword blades, but now it has failed to suppress her."

The other person nodded, his voice low: "It seems that her strength is even more solid than we expected."

"What's going on?" Yu Liuhua had been paying close attention to Guan Xun's every move because of the bounty order. At this moment, her lips were pursed into a straight line, her hands were folded on her knees with her fingertips slightly clenched, her gaze swept between the two men's moves, and her brows were slightly furrowed without uttering a word.

It's said that the sinner also possesses fire attributes, so why did she only use ice attributes on the field? Could it be that she really suspected the wrong person?

The Eagle Eye Elder, seated at the head of the table, kept his gaze fixed on the faint light of the spiritual energy colliding on the field. His surprise was hidden beneath his composed expression. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This woman was incredibly powerful; if she could be used by the Upper Pavilion…

The two fighters in the arena paid no attention to their surroundings and focused solely on exchanging blows.

Zhuge Yunzheng had always thought that the secret technique that could completely overwhelm the longsword was somewhat difficult to use against Guan Xun.

His eyes filled with extreme seriousness. How could this be? Although this person was stronger than Duan Qingxi, they should have been suppressed since they were both swordsmen.

No, this won't do! He's bound to lose; he needs to find an opportunity to strike.

The Yin-Yang Blood Shadow technique can be layered and executed, but doing so would damage one's meridians and body, and in severe cases, it could disrupt one's cultivation and cause problems with the dantian. That's why he executes it one after another instead of layering it.

As if he had made up his mind, his eyes narrowed sharply, and as he urged the phantom to attack, an even more powerful aura suddenly surged out like a mountain rising from the plain, and a vast spiritual power permeated the arena.

The yin-yang blades around him suddenly flashed out like stars in the sky, densely packed and quite terrifying.

"Nine layers of secret techniques stacked, activate!"
