Chapter 1549 - 839: Seizure (Part 2)
"Grandfather." Chen Feng shouted loudly, suddenly discovering that his grandfather had been pierced between the eyebrows by a sword and had no breath, clearly already dead.
With just one sword stroke, Shen Qingfeng easily killed Chen Qi, who held the Fengyun Saber, with evident ease, leaving the surrounding people silent.
"The epitome of shamelessness, killing people and seizing weapons; is this the style of the Six Great Sects?" A dash of Vast Sword Qi appeared, striking directly at Shen Qingfeng.
Shen Qingfeng evaded the sword qi and, looking at the figure before him, said lightly, "Righteous Book Academy?"
"Indeed, I am Gu Haoran." Gu Haoran replied lightly.
"Hmph, a group of scholarly pedants like you, the most inflexible. Leave quickly, and I may spare your life. But if you remain obstinate, don’t blame me." Shen Qingfeng threatened.
"Someone like you, I wish I could kill you with one sword. Unfortunately, the Vast Sword isn’t in my hands; otherwise, I would definitely strike you down." Gu Haoran said.
The Vast Sword is one of the two Divine Weapons of Righteous Book Academy, one named Vast, the other named Righteousness, representing a supreme technique of Righteous Book Academy: the Vast Righteous Sword, an Earth Rank Martial Technique, one of the Seven Great Swordsmanships of the world.
"Interesting. I would like to experience the Vast Sword of Righteous Book Academy." Shen Qingfeng said lightly, the Heavenly Spirit Sword in his hand directed at his opponent, clearly intent on killing.
Lin Feng watched the two opponents, one emitting an aura of Vast Righteousness, making it feel as if he was justice and power itself.
Shen Qingfeng, on the other hand, relied on his own immense power, looked at Gu Haoran with a hint of anger, surprised a student from Righteous Book Academy dared to confront him.
"Die!" Shen Qingfeng swung his sword, an astounding Sword Qi bursting forth, directly attacking Gu Haoran, while simultaneously powerful energies erupted from Shen Qingfeng’s body, forming a protective layer, appearing to be True Qi released externally, guarding him.
"Meng Ziyun, power cannot defeat." Gu Haoran shouted loudly, and his momentum instantly soared, like a mountain, breaking through from the Four Spirits Seal to the Five Spirit Knot.
Power Cannot Defeat, one of Righteous Book Academy’s renowned secret techniques, can instantly raise one’s level by one rank and, if deeply versed in Vast Righteousness, even by two ranks, hence academy heads are generally considered Eight Spirit Knot experts.
"Power Cannot Defeat, very good. It seems I’m facing a formidable opponent; interesting." Shen Qingfeng sneered, glanced at the ultimate treasure below, and instantly struck, his Heavenly Spirit Sword chopping out another Sword Qi, this time with an added killing intent.
"There is Righteousness in heaven and earth," Gu Haoran shouted, and a treasure weapon appeared in his hand, facing Shen Qingfeng’s treasure weapon without any inferiority.
"Impossible, Righteous Book Academy, actually bestowed you a treasure weapon." Shen Qingfeng exclaimed in surprise, full of gloom, seemingly not expecting Gu Haoran to hold a treasure weapon.
Gu Haoran is Righteous Book Academy’s most outstanding disciple and highly valued by the academy head. Given a treasure weapon, naturally, it is understandable.
"Vast Sword Exorcism." Gu Haoran shouted loudly, a giant sword appeared in his hand, accompanied by his gestures, he swung the sword directly toward Shen Qingfeng.
The purple giant sword almost made everyone in the air feel a trace of terror, the energy within it was incredibly destructive, and most frighteningly, Gu Haoran’s control didn’t let a single bit of energy leak, this level of control was terrifying.
Shen Qingfeng snorted coldly: "A minor skill," he swung his Heavenly Spirit Sword, similarly conjuring a giant sword, but compared to the energy containment of the purple giant sword, Shen Qingfeng’s giant sword energy fluctuated more strongly but scattered out, causing significant damage to the Chen Family.
Watching Gu Haoran’s prowess, Lin Feng, once proud of himself, suddenly found it laughable. He thought he was already outstanding among the young generation, but compared to Gu Haoran, it was pathetically ridiculous.
The opponent at his age wielding a treasure weapon, able to contend against a Five Spirit Knot expert, is simply unbelievable.
"Truly terrifyingly strong." Lin Feng exclaimed.
"Don’t feel inferior. You are not like him. He received rigorous training from Righteous Book Academy from a young age, with abundant resources at his disposal, whereas you are just a regular disciple of the Star-Gazing Pavilion; it’s a normal comparison." Han Yan said indifferently.
Han Yan naturally noticed Lin Feng’s unease, and promptly said, "If you received such training from a young age, your achievements wouldn’t be inferior to his."
"Thank you, sister." Lin Feng smiled, the Demon Suppressing Sword behind him also radiating Sword Intent, dispelling Lin Feng’s doubts. In terms of spirituality, even sealed, the Spirit Sword’s spirituality wasn’t too low.
The two giant swords in the sky continued clashing, each collision resonating with a thrill from the heart; this is the power of a Five Spirit Knot expert, instilling a trace of fear.
Gradually, the shadows of the giant swords began to disappear, and Gu Haoran almost instantly appeared before Shen Qingfeng, fiercely thrusting a sword at his opponent’s chest.
"Hmph," Shen Qingfeng snorted coldly; though initially surprised by the opponent’s speed, he quickly formed armor internally to block the attack.
"Junior, this is my Martial Soul Battle Armor. Unless you have an Earth Rank Martial Technique, don’t expect to harm me," Shen Qingfeng sneered.
With this statement, armor instantly appeared on Shen Qingfeng, making Gu Haoran frown; Shen Qingfeng’s Martial Soul Battle Armor was a unique martial technique enhancing defense, a rare attribute. Unexpectedly, he encountered it.
Shen Qingfeng contemplated his Martial Soul Battle Armor, a piece taking ten years to cultivate, giving him the capital to dominate his peers with invincible defense; who could resist?
"Hmph, Earth Rank Martial Technique, think I don’t have it?" Gu Haoran snorted coldly, preparing to perform a swordsmanship technique, naturally the Vast Sword.
"Vast Sword." Gu Haoran shouted, and instantly the sword in his hand emitted an exotic aura, entwined with purple, its aura terrifying, imbued with Confucian True Intent.
This is the biggest difference between Earth Rank and Profound Level techniques. Profound Level techniques interpret energy mastery, touching on principles, like Lin Feng’s Extinction Palm, with slight Extinction Dao, while Autumn Water Sword Technique fully utilizes Dark Force.
Gu Haoran’s sword contained the Confucian pride of Vast Righteousness, the Vast Energy, immensely powerful, indestructible, countering all wicked martial arts, suppressing all misconduct, and the Vast Sword, channeling this Vast Energy through the sword, releasing it, is True Intent, whereas Heaven Rank techniques involve principles like the Undying Seal Technique, touching high realms beyond mainstream, beyond this and other shores.
Thus, this is the difference between Heaven Rank and Earth Rank techniques, and between Profound Level and Yellow Rank techniques too.
At this moment, the Vast Sword imbued with Vast Energy carried indestructible might, causing the opponent’s armor to falter.
"Junior, you angered me." Shen Qingfeng watched Gu Haoran, sneering coldly, his long sword also emitting bright light, instilling a sense of palpitations.
This was Shen Qingfeng intending to perform an Earth Rank Martial Technique, also a Spiritual Treasure Pavilion masterpiece.
