Douluo: Wuhun Seven Killing Sword, Sword Opens the Gate of Heaven

Chapter 283: Battle of Geniuses, a Different Snow Mountain Sect Leader
The Snow Mountain Mammoth Martial Spirit roared behind Tian Guozhen. With every step forward, the ground shook slightly under the trampling of the Snow Mountain Mammoth.

"You are the guest. When you launch an attack, the sparring begins. But I don't want you to keep me waiting for long." Tian Guozhen's face was cold and his eyes were sharp, like a tiger ready to pounce.

Ning Tianchen shrugged, and six yellow, purple and black soul rings appeared under his feet.

Tian Guozhen couldn't help but smile, "Very good, you have indeed broken through to the Soul Emperor. Otherwise, this battle would be really boring."

"Then you'll have to watch carefully."

Ning Tianchen did not build up any strength, and the battle was about to break out.

The Seven Killing Swords swung and turned in his hands, as agile as a swimming dragon.

Tian Guozhen's tall body naturally possessed powerful strength. Moreover, the Snow Mountain Mammoth Martial Spirit was an integrated attack and defense existence. By attaching the spirit power to his hands, he could use the sharp Seven Killing Swords.

The cold wind was howling past, and because of the noise of the battle, a large amount of snow slid down the mountain above the cliff, threatening an avalanche.

With the soul power possessing him, Ning Tianchen could not feel the coldness around him. However, facing the white snow that kept falling on him, his vision and ability to move were greatly hindered.

Tian Guozhen seized the opportunity and knocked him back with a heavy punch.

The first attempt ended with Ning Tianchen being at a disadvantage.

He brushed the snow off his hair, holding the Seven Killing Sword in his hand, but did not fire it.

Gradually, he seemed to understand why the other party chose this place as the arena.

Environmental factors can cause great interference to soul masters. Being able to remain calm in the face of any environment is a compulsory course for every strong person.

The key is whether to choose to go with the flow or go against it.

Fighting here, even if you fail, you will still gain a lot.

"Thank you very much."

Ning Tianchen's eyes flashed, and he swung the Seven Killing Sword suddenly.

The white sword energy that burst out was hidden in the snow, making it difficult to detect.

Going against the will of heaven requires great strength and courage. At this time, choosing to adapt to the environment is a good choice.

Tian Guozhen's response seemed particularly experienced.

No matter how powerful Ning Tianchen's sword energy was, he had no intention of resisting it.

"Third soul skill, Mammoth Trampling!"

With the help of the momentum provided by the snow mountain mammoth's forelimbs, his body leaped up to a height of more than 20 meters.

In the air, he avoided the sword attack and smashed towards Ning Tianchen.

Without hesitation, Ning Tianchen inserted the Seven Killing Sword in front of him, and the second soul ring under his feet began to glow.

"Second soul skill, Dragon Sword Guard."

Thousands of spiritual swords emerged from the sword body, forming a sword energy barrier around him.

Tian Guozhen's own weight, coupled with the burst of his soul skills, easily shattered the barrier.

Not giving his opponent a chance to pursue him, he fell backwards, avoiding Ning Tianchen's attack range.

After the second round of fighting, both sides had a further assessment of each other's strength.

"As expected of the top talent of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, he was able to think of using the environment to hide his sword energy so quickly." Tian Guozhen praised in his heart.

At the same time, his eyes were full of fire.

Over the years, there have been very few people who have made him treat them so seriously.

Ning Tianchen had a blank expression on his face, but he was horrified in his heart.

The opponent's difficulty was far beyond his imagination.

Not being greedy for credit and not being reckless in battle is something that even he, who is usually calm, sometimes cannot do.

If it had been Tian Guocheng or Tian Chao, they would never have retreated after seeing the scene just now, but would have confronted him head-on.

Ning Tianchen was not discouraged. He twisted his neck and said, "Let's stop testing you. I'm looking forward to a head-on battle with you."

"Just to my liking."

This time, Tian Guozhen took the lead in launching the offensive.

"Second soul skill, powerful charge attack."

Tian Guozhen rushed over.

The Seven Killing Sword is not a heavy weapon. While Ning Tianchen was dodging, the sword energy attacked Tian Guozhen at the same time.

Relying on the snow mountain mammoth's powerful defense, the sharp sword energy fell on him without causing any injury.

"No, relying solely on the defense of the martial soul itself, and not relying on defensive soul skills, his defense cannot be so high." Ning Tianchen discovered a clue.

He was confident that with the sharpness of the Seven Killing Sword, a soul master of the same level would never be able to resist it so easily.

Tian Guozhen should have other means of defense, and it is not ruled out that he has a torso soul bone that is mainly used for defense.

……

The competition between the two was so noisy that it soon attracted the disciples of the Snow Mountain Sect.

The disciples spontaneously did not approach the arena, but stood at a distance to watch this competition between geniuses.

"Isn't that the new guest who came yesterday? Why is he sparring with Tian Guozhen?"

"Among people of the same level, he is the only one who can hold his own in the fight with Guo Zhen. In fact, his soul power level is two levels lower than Guo Zhen. This guest is not simple." A Soul Saint from the Snow Mountain Sect made an analysis.

At this moment, the disciples of Snow Mountain Sect began to speculate on the reason why Ning Tianchen came here.

Some people think that he was invited to compete with Tian Guozhen.

Some people also think that Ning Tianchen is arrogant and wants to take the opportunity to defeat the number one genius of the Snow Mountain Sect.

In the wing room, Ning Rongrong was awakened by the noise outside the room.

Sitting up, she rubbed her neck and called out instinctively, "Brother Tianchen, why is it so noisy outside?"

However, she did not wait for a reply.

Realizing that the other person was not in the room, she immediately put on her clothes and rushed out of the room.

The wing room was located on high ground. She looked forward and had a clear view of the cliff arena in the distance.

"Brother Tianchen is sparring with someone?" Ning Rongrong showed a hint of smile.

In her impression, Ning Tianchen had never lost to a soul master of the same level, so it was naturally impossible for him to lose to someone from the Snow Mountain Sect.

On the other side, a disciple hurriedly informed Tian Chao of the situation between the two sides.

"What? Guo Zhen is sparring with friends from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect so early!"

According to his idea, this competition can be carried out, but not on the cliff arena, but in front of the sect's main hall, so that the sect master can witness the power of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and promote the establishment of connections between the two major sects.

Tian Guozhen's move completely disrupted his plans.

At this time, Tian Guocheng also rushed over, "They are fighting on the cliff arena, should we forcibly stop them? If someone falls off the cliff, it will be a major accident."

Tian Chao frowned.

He also wanted to stop the competition, but his ranking in the sect was lower than Tian Guozhen. Forcibly interfering with the other party's decision was an act of usurpation, which was a serious matter in the Snow Mountain Sect.

At this moment, the only one who can stop Tian Guozhen is the clan leader who ranks higher than him.
. But the sect master was still in the hall on the top of the mountain, so how could he pay attention to the situation here.

After a long silence, he said, "Guocheng, follow me. If one side is defeated, we will rescue them immediately. There must be no casualties."

The original intention of setting up the cliff arena was to provide a place for powerful soul saints and above in the sect to compete with each other.

With the strength of a Soul Sage and the true body of his martial soul activated, his life would not be in danger even if he fell off a cliff.

However, Tian Guozhen and Ning Tianchen are only Soul Emperors. With such strength, they will only die if they fall off the cliff.

……

On the ring, the battle between the two sides entered a stalemate.

Ning Tianchen was not as strong as his opponent, but he avoided the relative disadvantage in strength by using the Seven Killing Swords at a high frequency.

While Tian Guozhen was parrying the Seven Killing Swords, he was unable to accumulate strength, let alone deliver a heavy punch, and was completely restrained by him.

"Fifth soul skill, freezing cold."

Tian Guozhen stomped his right foot on the ground, and the cold air spread rapidly with his body as the center.

Everything around was frozen, and the falling snowflakes were like ice knives, hitting Ning Tianchen's cheeks.

Having gone through the ice and fire body training, Ning Tianchen had a certain immunity to freezing spirit skills. His limbs did not feel stiff, and he threw the Seven Killing Swords out.

The fifth soul skill, Shocking All Around, was used, forcing Tian Guozhen to retreat and interrupting his offensive.

"What a strong control." Ning Tianchen was shocked as he shook off the ice chips on his body.

In a snowy environment, the strength of ice-attribute martial souls such as the Snow Mountain Mammoth martial soul will be greatly enhanced.

Next, he must deal with it carefully.

Around the ring, Tian Chao spotted Ning Rongrong watching the fight, and quickly ran up to her and greeted her.

"This guy is so strong. Is he the number one genius of the Snow Mountain Sect that you guys mentioned?" Ning Rongrong asked.

She had never seen Ning Tianchen take so long to face an opponent of the same level, so she asked.

Tian Chao smiled bitterly and said, "Why didn't you stop them? When two tigers fight, one of them will get hurt. We are all friends, it would be bad if we hurt each other."

Ning Rongrong was not worried. "What's the big deal? Brother Tianchen has the flying spirit skill and won't fall off the cliff. The one who should be worried is your genius." Tian Guocheng sighed and said, "That's not the case. Guozhen has been active in the ice and snow for a long time, and this environment is very beneficial to the Snow Mountain Mammoth Martial Spirit. In addition, Guozhen is familiar with the arena, so Ning Tianchen is likely to be in danger."

Ning Rongrong thought about it and didn't worry too much.

Ning Tianchen hadn't used the Killing God Domain yet, which proved that he hadn't used his full strength yet. In that case, she had nothing to worry about.

……

"Fourth soul skill, Wind Dragon Sword Shadow."

The power of the sword energy increased, and the Seven Killing Sword used long-range attack methods, making Tian Guozhen exhausted.

The sword energy fell on the opponent, but the sword force did not dissipate.

As the sword forces continued to accumulate, a Great Wall of Sword Energy gradually formed.

Ning Tianchen's suppression power was at its maximum, and Tian Guozhen had no chance of breaking out in a short period of time.

Seeing that he had suppressed his opponent, Ning Tianchen asked, "Is that enough?"

Since it's just a competition, it's enough to understand each other's strength. There's no need to get serious.

Tian Guozhen thought for a moment, then said, "You and I will each use our sixth soul skill and attack with all our strength, regardless of victory or defeat."

Ning Tianchen readily agreed.

"Sixth soul skill, flying sword without trace."

He raised the Seven Killing Swords above his head, and countless spiritual swords appeared behind him.

The momentum was so great that many powerful people present felt inferior.

The Seven Kill Sword's Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin is a group attack skill. The location where the rain of swords falls is fixed, so it is not suitable for dealing with single targets.

Each sword shadow summoned by Ning Tianchen had an independent flight trajectory. After adjustment, the sword rain could be concentrated on one target point.

"Sixth soul skill, Falling Rock Drop."

Tian Guozhen exerted all his strength, and the originally dim sky suddenly became bright. A meteorite burning with blazing flames streaked across the sky and fell towards Ning Tianchen's position.

If it was a life-and-death battle, Ning Tianchen wouldn't have to pay any attention to the meteorite. He could just pour all his sword rain on Tian Guozhen to end the battle.

However, since it is a competition, the winner should be determined by the strength of the soul skills.

He adjusted the direction of the sword rain and flew towards the location where the meteorite fell.

When the two great spirit skills collided, the entire sky was completely ignited.

The meteorites continued to disintegrate under the impact of the sword rain, and tiny meteorites dripped to the ground like a rain of fire.

The momentum of the collision of soul skills made all the Snow Mountain Sect disciples present feel pressured.

If two Soul Emperors can do this, if they are promoted to Titled Douluo, wouldn’t they be able to flatten the entire snow mountain?
Soon after, the two spirit skills exploded simultaneously in the air, presenting a brilliant and colorful fireworks scene.

Ning Tianchen and Tian Guozhen stopped at the same time.

Judging from the results of the collision of soul skills, neither of them lost in this competition.

Tian Guozhen smiled brightly, "It's really refreshing, you are quite strong, let's have another fight if we have a chance."

Ning Tianchen smiled back, "I couldn't ask for more."

The match was over and both sides walked out of the ring at the same time.

However, an accident happened.

After the torture from the previous fight, and because of Tian Guozhen's huge weight, the ground beneath his feet could not bear the weight and shattered instantly.

He had already let down his guard and had no chance to react. His body fell towards the cliff along with the broken rocks.

"Guo Zhen." Tian Chao and others were shocked and rushed to the cliff to check the situation.

All this happened too suddenly and Ning Tianchen didn't have time to react.

Realizing the situation, wings quickly grew out of his back and he rushed down the cliff, trying to catch Tian Guozhen.

However, the environment outside the entire mountain was extremely harsh. When he dived down, there was always ice and snow blocking his sight. Even if he was not careful, he would crash into the mountain.

"Hello, I'm here." Suddenly, a voice came from behind him.

Ning Tianchen turned around suddenly and saw Tian Guozhen sitting on the Snow Mountain Mammoth Martial Spirit and flying towards the mountain.

His first reaction was - the Snow Mountain Mammoth Martial Spirit has the ability to fly?
As he caught up with the other person, he finally saw the whole story.

This Snow Mountain Mammoth Martial Spirit is not Tian Guozhen, but a burly man.

Although this man has not revealed his soul ring, the mere fact that he can fly in the air shows that he has the strength of a Titled Douluo.

I just don't know if this person is the leader of the Snow Mountain Sect or some other worshiper of the sect.

In front of the cliff, everyone saw Tian Guozhen return safely, and they finally felt relieved.

After falling back to the ground, Tian Guozhenlang smiled and patted Ning Tianchen on the shoulder, "It seems that you didn't use your full strength. I really look forward to our next fight."

Ning Tianchen was also looking forward to it.

Tian Guozhen still has at least one torso soul bone skill that has not been used, and it is not ruled out that he has other trump cards.

The big man interrupted, "The Sect Master is waiting for you in the main hall, don't keep him waiting for too long."

After saying that, he flew towards the top of the mountain.

Ning Tianchen looked at Tian Chao, as if to say, "Now, you can finally tell the truth!"

"Great Elder Tian Chenxing has a cultivation level of ninety-five and ranks third in the sect, second only to me." The speaker was Tian Guozhen.

After the competition just now, he was satisfied with Ning Tianchen's strength, and suddenly felt that he had met him too late.

Tian Chao had no intention of saying anything, after all, it involved the sect's secrets. However, Tian Guozhen took the initiative to speak, and he did not refute.

Tian Chao hooked his shoulder and walked towards the top of the mountain. "Let's go, it's almost dawn. The Great Elder just rescued Guo Zhen, and I think the Sect Master was also paying attention to the battle just now. Haha, I have to say, my friend, your strength is impressive."

At the same time, Ning Tianchen had made his own judgment on the strength of the Snow Mountain Sect.

The Great Elder has the strength of level 95, so the strength of the Sect Master is probably between level 96 and 97. Tian Chao had said that the top combat power of the Snow Mountain Sect was slightly inferior to that of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect.

I think the gap lies with the great elder, not their sect leader.

With curiosity in mind, Ning Tianchen and Ning Rongrong arrived at the top of the mountain about half an hour later.

The temperature here is lower and the wind speed is faster. The cold air enters the body and Ning Rongrong begins to cough violently.

Ning Tianchen spread out his soul power, forming a soul power barrier, barely blocking the cold air here.

"It's too cold here, Brother Tianchen, I..."

Her hands and feet were cold, and her whole body was trembling. The extremely low temperature made her feel very uncomfortable.

Tian Guozhen and the other two used their soul power barrier together to block the surrounding cold current.

"Let's go into the main hall first. It's warmer inside." Tian Chao said.

Snow Mountain Mammoth Spirits are naturally cold-resistant, and since they have lived in such an environment for a long time, they do not find it difficult to adapt. But Ning Rongrong is different. Not only is she not an ice-attribute spirit master, she is also a combat spirit master with a weak constitution.

Ning Tianchen thought about it, fumbled in the soul guide for a while, and took out the inner elixir he had taken from the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Snake.

The moment the snake pill appeared, the temperature around it rose a lot, and streams of warm currents flowed into Ning Rongrong's body, curing her cough.

Tian Chao and others gradually put away their soul power barriers. Under the effect of the inner elixir, there was an invisible barrier around them, completely isolating the cold air.

"It's really a rare treasure. With this thing, you should be able to go further in the Arctic ice field." Tian Guozhen said with a big laugh.

Ning Tianchen keenly grasped the meaning of the other party's words, and tentatively said: "It's a pity that we are not familiar with the Arctic Ice Field, and it is impossible for us to go too far."

If the Snow Mountain Sect is willing to take them into the Arctic ice field, that would be of great benefit to them.

Tian Guozhen smiled and didn't respond.

……

There are many towering palaces on the top of the mountain.

These buildings did not crumble under the ravages of the cold wind, but instead stood tall.

The hall in the center, about ten stories high, is the main hall.

The heavy iron door more than ten meters high was slowly pushed open, revealing the situation inside the hall.

In the hall, in addition to a stone seat on a high pedestal, there are twenty smaller chairs on both sides.

Looking towards the center of the hall, a middle-aged man with a handsome face was sitting on a high seat.

He looked easy-going, but his stature was out of place compared to the other disciples of Tianshan Sect.

Tian Chao whispered in their ears: "The sect master's martial spirit is not the Snow Mountain Mammoth, but the Ice Spirit Phoenix. Its strength is much stronger than that of the great elder."

Ning Tianchen and Ning Rongrong bowed at the same time, "Ning Tianchen (Ning Rongrong), greets Sect Master Tian and the elders of the Snow Mountain Sect."

Tian Chao and others sat down according to the seating order. Tian Guocheng sat on the first chair on the left side of the high seat, while the first chair on the right side was occupied by the Great Elder Tian Chenxing whom they had met before.

"I have been paying attention to your strength just now. The fact that you were able to fight Guo Zhen to such an extent proves that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is even more powerful than the rumors say."

"I already know the purpose of your coming here, but why do you think that the Snow Mountain Sect will give up its seclusion and reach a cooperation with your Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect?"

This question stumped Ning Rongrong.

Before setting off, Ning Fengzhi had practiced with her countless times, but had never told her how to answer this question.
