Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 96: Victory! (rd update)
"I'm back, I'm back. Where did you hit him?" An elder from the referee's seat ran back in a hurry.

"Where have you been taking so long?" The elder next door casually replied, "It's the final round, and the winner will be decided soon."

He rolled his eyes as he whispered, "Hey, a few of the elders from our small sects have set up a betting game privately to see who will win and who will lose among these disciples. Do you want to join in? The requirements are not high, the minimum is 100,000 spirit stones to participate."

The Xuanfeng Sect elder's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Bet! Why not?"

Where can you go without spirit stones?
Even if you follow Lord Demon, you might still need spirit stones to move around.

"Fellow Daoist, trust me. Many of us have bet on Bai Lingshuang. We are guaranteed to win."

"Is that so?" The Xuanfeng Sect elder made his own decision. "I don't think so. Look at that magic cultivator. His moves are gentle and he doesn't have the confidence to win. On the other hand, that sword cultivator, although his cultivation is not as good, strikes with his sword with unwavering determination, even willing to use those strands of original energy he has painstakingly condensed. I'm betting on him!"

"Good! You have good eyes!" Another elder from the next door looked over after hearing this and asked, "How much are you going to bet, fellow Daoist?"

"Eight hundred thousand spirit stones!"

"Hey! 800,000 Spiritual Stones is too little! Let's bet 2 million Spiritual Stones!"

"Why?" the Xuanfeng Sect elder was curious. "You're also optimistic about that sword cultivator?"

Elder Tong beamed, "I see your analysis is so clear, it makes me feel like he's bound to win."

"Yes, yes!" The Xuanfeng Sect elder, having found a confidant, excitedly waved his hand to the elder who had spoken to him first, and handed him a storage ring. "Come here! There are three million spirit stones in it. Bet them all on that sword cultivator!"

Then he turned to look at Elder Tong, "Hey, how much are you betting?"

"Why should I bet? The sword cultivator is from our Zhengyang Sect."

"Zhao!" The Xuanfeng Sect elder's expression froze, "You forgot to analyze something!"

"what?"

"background!"

……

It was a world of ice and snow.

The scene was almost covered with frost.

The deep blue frost almost froze the entire air.

As the two continued to fight, the frost magic almost completely covered the entire arena.

And above this frost-filled field, there were some tiny flashes in the air that flickered like fireflies.

They are like pieces of translucent glass prisms, blending in unnoticed amidst the frost.

Lin Jian finally understood why Chun Xue had not been in a hurry to take Kong Hen out.

This is something that can only be used by those at least at the second level of foundation building.

The minimum requirement for using this sword technique is to make the light stagnant and leave traces.

It requires that when swinging the sword, the sword energy should not be dissipated, but the sword light should be condensed in the void using the secret of swordsmanship.

The longer it stays, the more sword light is stored, forming a superimposed offensive when it finally explodes.

The power is so overwhelming that the opponent will naturally be defeated.

But to achieve this, it is completely impossible with the current level of Lin Jian's foundation.

Only those who have reached the second level of foundation building and have the true energy to flow through the hidden meridians of the whole body, plus spiritual awareness that is enough to project outwards at least three meters, can barely do it.

Lin Jian’s spiritual awareness is qualified, but his true energy level is insufficient.

But he took a shortcut.

If the quality of conventional true qi is not high enough, then use the Taibai Xuan Gang that you have painstakingly condensed!
It is not easy to condense Taibai Xuan Gang. Before achieving the fourth level of foundation building and achieving an impervious body, this thing will be used up bit by bit and there is no way to recover naturally.

Is it a waste?
perhaps.

But if you want to defeat Bai Lingshuang, you must use the罡气.

At the same time, you can also use the pressure from your opponent to promote your own progress in kendo.

The way of sword cultivation can only be improved through combat.

Without an opponent who can bring enough pressure, even if you practice for a lifetime, you may not be able to understand anything.

It's like killing two birds with one stone right now.

Fortunately, under Bai Lingshuang's increasingly urgent pressure, Lin Jian really managed to keep the sword energy he slashed out in the air.

To achieve this is to reach the level of "getting a glimpse of a firefly" in the first level of Konghen Sword Art.

then……

"collapse!"

In the midst of frost, Bai Lingshuang, with a solemn expression on her pretty face, formed a hand seal, then suddenly plunged her hands into the frosty ground beneath her feet, launching the final attack.

Every step she just took had meaning.

In addition to the Frost Mark Steps used for escape and camouflage, she also left behind a number of ice seeds deeper in the ground.

The arena is now covered in ice, and no matter where the opponent flees, they will find it difficult to escape their attack range. [Cold River Thousand Piles of Snow]
The ice exploded instantly, stirring up clusters of icicles.

Like giant frost dragons rising from the ground, icicles with jagged ice spikes tore through the ground of the arena and slammed into the only enemy.

The long sword in the forest flashed, and the spiritual consciousness moved slightly.

The Taibai Xuangang sword energy that had been lingering in the air suddenly exploded, and dense sword light radiated from countless directions, slashing towards the opponent's location.

This is the final showdown between the two!

The arena had already been broken into pieces, and the ice dragon that flew up into the sky along with the rocks was roaring wildly.

The invisible sword energy slashed around, and ice chips fell all over the sky.

Until the icicles became a forest, all the icicles finally gathered into a ten-foot-tall ice dragon shadow that pounced on the enemy, carrying the power of an ancient ferocious beast.

And in that translucent ice-blue color, a sword-wielding figure was moving forward and killing under the protection of countless sword qi and swimming fish around him.

Frost and sword energy.

Almost ripped everything apart.

The small arena...or rather, the arena has long disappeared.

Only on the ground where the arena was originally located, a thrilling scene broke out that even the elders in the Jindan stage did not dare to approach easily.

As ice flowers fell from the sky, everyone stretched their necks to see the final outcome.

Bai Lingshuang floated in the air, holding the final spell in her hand.

Tiny frost thorns sprouted from Lin Jian's body, threatening to pierce him to pieces.

Under repeated frost spells, those seeds that had penetrated the deepest finally turned into evil spirits that took lives when the true energy in the forest was completely exhausted.

However, just before these countless frost spikes completely erupted, a pitch-black dragon-scale sword gently rested on the white and translucent neck.

The protective frost armor had been shattered by the sword energy. As long as the owner of the sword exerted a little force, this ice-type magic genius would be killed immediately.

There was a hint of relief in Bai Lingshuang's eyes.

"You win," she said.

The body that was high above floated lightly to the ground, and the frost that almost froze the air slowly faded away after she finished the spell.

A long sword was stuck in the ground in the forest, and his body was covered in blood.

The voice of the elder of the Pure Yang Sword Sect came from the high referee's seat.

"Zhengyang Sect lands first in the forest, and Bai Lingshuang of the Immortal Sect wins!"

"what?!"

One stone caused a thousand waves!

"Why?!"

"Isn't this bullying?"

"It's obvious! You, the Immortal Sect, have all admitted defeat!"

The pressure from Elder Chunyang, who was in the Nascent Soul stage, shocked the entire audience, and his majestic voice resounded in everyone's ears.

"Rules are rules! If you have any objections to my judgment, you can report it to the Pure Yang Sword Sect after the competition! But right now, my decision is the truth!"

"Master?" Bai Lingshuang looked frightened and looked up at the elder of the Xianyi Sect.

But the other party didn't even look at her, but just stood beside Elder Jian Chun, half bowing respectfully.

"Elder Tong!" Sun Qinghan and the others were completely unable to accept this decision. They looked angrily at their own elders who were also sitting in the referee's seat, "Do you remember what we said at the beginning of the competition?!"

"You said you would never let us suffer any loss due to the rules!"

Although Lin Jian said when he came on stage that if he couldn't stand until the end, the Zhengyang Sect would lose.

Of course they couldn't fight anymore in the forest given their current state, so the Zhengyang Sect had been defeated.

But at least he lost because he was too weak to fight again after defeating Bai Lingshuang, not because he was no match for Bai Lingshuang!

This has two meanings!
This is an insult to the forest!

Elder Tong's eyes turned red, and he clenched his fists, ready to go up and fight Jian Chun. "I'm going to fight him!"

But he didn't expect that the elder next to him became even more agitated.

The elder of Xuanfeng Sect had already taken out his knife, "Goddamn it, give me back my spirit stone!"

In the midst of chaos, a sword flashed across the sky.

Two figures suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

The old voice resounded in everyone's ears, "The original verdict is overturned. Lin Jian wins this battle!"
