Chapter 70 The Blessing of All Things
An hour later, the remaining three matches also came to an end.
The top four in the monthly exam have been determined.
After another draw, Jiang Feng drew Ding Xiuqi.
Offstage, everyone held their breath in concentration.
"Here you are, Jiang Feng fighting Ding Xiuqi, as you requested." Fang Yuan said calmly, arms crossed.
Behind him were Huang Zhaoqi, Lin Lu, and others who had been arguing about the matter yesterday.
No one answered.
The true strength of the two players on the field is about to be revealed.
Ten minutes later, Jiang Feng and Ding Xiuqi, as the first fighters of the second round, both stood on the ring.
"Jiang Feng." Ding Xiuqi let out a long breath, his usual arrogant expression vanishing, and said seriously:
"I have to admit, it really took me longer than I expected to get this far."
"Even in a place like Tianyuan Star, with your current performance, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call you a prodigy."
He looked at Jiang Feng with a complicated expression. Originally, he had only regarded it as a pastime when he was bored, but now the other party had shown that his strength was no less than his own.
Ding Xiuqi got into position, and as he spoke, a bright green light shone from his hand, and a longsword with a light blue body and a wood-attribute crystal core embedded in its hilt fell into his hand.
A rich, fresh scent of herbs and plants filled the arena, but beneath this fragrance lay a chilling, menacing intent.
"Come on, let me see just how strong you really are now!"
A fierce glint flashed in Ding Xiuqi's eyes, and he held nothing back any longer. A surge of green blood energy erupted from his body!
Seven levels of body tempering, spiritual bone aptitude!
"boom!"
On the hard arena floor, a layer of illusory blue moss and vine shadows appeared out of thin air, as if the vitality of the entire arena was completely ignited in that instant.
The next moment, Ding Xiuqi pushed off with his feet and shot out like a drifting leaf!
He wildly swung the cyan longsword in his hand in mid-air, and the cyan wood qi and blood in his body surged out along the blade, condensing into dozens of cyan vines in mid-air!
"Spirit-Rank Technique, Azure Wood of the Netherworld."
Of those present, only Xu Yuan and Vice Principal Lin recognized the technique.
"I remember it was the blessing of [All Things]?" Vice Principal Lin asked.
Xu Yuan nodded.
"The user can create the [All Things] domain within a certain range around themselves, in which any martial arts techniques related to grass, wood, earth, and water will receive a significant damage boost."
"Interesting." Vice Principal Lin stroked his chin and exclaimed, "To be able to touch upon the domain power of a Grandmaster, Tianyuan Star must be really rich."
On the arena, facing this barrage of attacks, Jiang Feng not only did not retreat, but instead took a big step forward.
"A domain-level cultivation technique..."
He let out a deep groan, and in his prime, his blood and qi surged, and the blood of the Darkborn was once again transformed into streams of "true fire" flowing through his body.
The blessing of [Infernal Hell].
In an instant, one side of the arena was vibrant with life, while the other was scorching hot like hell.
The difference is clear.
However, even though both are at the Great Completion stage, the protection level of [Myriad Phenomena] is ultimately higher. When the fiery hell collided with the green forest, it even began to show faint signs of dissolving.
"snort."
Jiang Feng and Ding Xiuqi both snorted coldly.
The next moment, a dragon's roar that only Jiang Feng could hear resounded from the depths of the sea of blood. The aura of the [Flame Prison], which was originally at a disadvantage, suddenly rose and suppressed Ding Xiuqi's domain.
Although the protection of [Infernal Hell] is not as strong as that of [All Things], he still possesses the Soul of the Purgatory Dragon!
The clash of the 'domains' happened in the blink of an eye. Just as the dragon's roar rang out, Ding Xiuqi's sword, covered in vines, finally landed in front of Jiang Feng!
"clang!"
With a deep, muffled sound, an incredibly thick, dark red shield suddenly materialized in front of Jiang Feng.
The shield had an extremely rough surface, with cracks resembling those of real volcanic rock, and exuded an extremely powerful and heavy aura.
"Red Rock Shield!"
With the blessing of the Dragon Soul and the Fiery Prison, this martial skill, which is still in its final stage, has already reached a state of perfection!
"What a hard tortoise shell!" Ding Xiuqi's face flashed with shock.
The martial art he used earlier was an extremely rare mid-grade spirit-level sword technique, the "Ten Thousand Vine Entangling Heaven Sword".
With the protection of [Myriad Manifestations], even the protective aura of a Qi and Blood Realm martial artist can be broken, so why can't this guy's shield be broken?
Little did he know that the Crimson Rock Shield that Jiang Feng was using had long since transcended the realm of ordinary martial arts techniques.
The foundation of this shield, besides the concentration of Qi and blood, also relies on the user's own concentration of Qi and blood.
After being enhanced several times by the extraordinary evil and attribute forging artifact, the defense that Jiang Feng bestowed upon this shield naturally far exceeded his expectations!
Faced with absolute fundamental values, all of this is nothing but a joke of brute force overcoming all techniques!
The only drawback is that since advancing to the Spirit Bone level, Jiang Feng's consumption of Qi and Blood has increased significantly when using martial arts techniques.
He didn't intend to continue hiding behind his shield and wasting time with the enemy.
After all, the opponent's green field looks like the kind of blessing that can fight a protracted war.
next moment--
As if sensing something, Ding Xiuqi abruptly withdrew his sword and retreated, quickly entering his own domain. The vines that had been burned to ashes also grew back with the power of the domain.
Then, the shield in front of Jiang Feng turned to ashes and vanished. He slammed his right leg into the ground, causing the entire arena to shake violently! A spiderweb-like crater was carved into the hard ground!
Using this violent recoil force, Jiang Feng charged towards Ding Xiuqi like a cannonball.
His right fist clenched tightly, and the dormant fire-attribute blood in his body frantically gathered at the tip of his fist. Fifteen fire dragons roared out at the same time, and the surrounding air was instantly distorted violently due to the extreme heat, even emitting a hissing sound that could not bear the pressure.
"Well done!"
Ding Xiuqi's eyes shone brightly, showing no fear.
He was also fully prepared for the pseudo-dragon power that appeared on Jiang Feng.
In an instant, the scene changed!
In the midst of the myriad phenomena, the illusory grasses, trees, and vines vanished in an instant, replaced by waves as heavy as mountains!
As Jiang Feng walked, the water rippled, as if he were instantly immersed in the deep sea, and his movements were inevitably slightly hindered.
"Truly worthy of the name 'All Things'."
Xu Yuan praised, "I think Ding Xiuqi's understanding of this technique is close to perfection."
In the split second that Jiang Feng's movements froze, Ding Xiuqi seized the opportunity and flicked his finger at Jiang Feng.
"Canglan!"
It was yet another mid-grade spirit-level water-attribute martial skill!
The water shot out like sharp blades, so fast that Jiang Feng didn't even have time to activate the Crimson Flame Shield!
Faced with the crisis, he had no choice but to change his strategy and redirect his Flame Collapse Fist towards the rapidly approaching stream of water!
"What a clever tactic."
The audience was already intimidated by the two men's imposing presence, and only now did someone speak up.
"Attack is indeed the best defense; Ding Xiuqi is quite something."
"I think it's those... the blessings around him are too strange. Not only can they detach themselves from their bodies, but they can also instantly transform from grass into waves... This is more like..."
Among the crowd, Yuan Guannan, with a solemn expression, voiced the incredible conjecture that had been on his mind.
"A domain that can only be formed at the Grandmaster level?"
Just as the audience below was speculating, on the stage, Jiang Feng's violent punch, which was wrapped in 15 fire dragons, collided with the rapidly shooting water.
"Bang—crash!"
As water and fire collided, they transformed into a torrential downpour of hot rain.
