Invincible!

Chapter 50 Confrontation
"?"

The moment Li Xian strode forward and leaped onto the Five Elements Platform, the atmosphere in the arena suddenly froze.

All eyes immediately fell on him.

Zhou Juechen, Qi Liang, Yue Longsha, Su Jianxing, Lin Buzhi, Qiao Liushui...

This includes Yang Xu, a staff member of the Rising Dragon Pavilion, and Xiang Yangsheng, the only swordsman of the Taixu Sword Palace who is recognized by the world as being able to truly contend with Yan Yu.

Everyone stared in astonishment at the figure who suddenly appeared on stage, their minds filled with questions.

Who is this?

Why are you so depressed?

Why waste everyone's time?

What are we going up there for?

To commit suicide in public just to amuse the world?
The tense atmosphere lasted for a moment, until everyone finally saw the figure clearly, and then an uproar erupted in the crowd, like a vegetable market that had been turned on, echoing all around.

"Someone actually dares to go up there?! Everyone here, except Xiang Yangsheng, who would be throwing their life away if they went up there?"

"Li Xian! It's Li Xian! The Gentleman Sword, ranked ninth on the Hidden Dragon List!"

"Is this person insane? How dare he challenge Princess Yan Yu, the number one on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, who has cultivated true qi after reaching the Void Refinement Realm?!"

"Qi Liang, ranked third, didn't move, and Wei Jiuyi, ranked sixth, didn't move either. Why would he, ranked ninth, rush up? Has his brain rusted? Doesn't he even look at the huge gap between the two sides?!"

exploded.

The shock of what they were seeing was so intense that everyone was venting their emotions of disbelief. The sounds of their voices created a deafening atmosphere, as if the place had exploded and was buzzing everywhere.

"Master, why did Young Master Li... go upstairs?"

In the crowd, Hongyu looked at Li Xian who rushed onto the Five Elements Platform, her voice stammering, her thoughts somewhat disorganized.

"Why did Li Xian go up there... I want to know too."

Zhou Juechen smiled wryly.

He knew that Li Xian often acted unexpectedly, and even anticipated that he would make a surprising move at the Dragon Gate Assembly, but he never expected that he would challenge Yan Yu!

Challenge the number one on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, whom everyone has already assumed will receive a Dragon Gate Token!
At this moment, he didn't even know whether Li Xian had gone mad or he had completely lost touch with the thought processes of these geniuses.

Even if he wanted to find someone to fight, couldn't he have chosen a different occasion?

When everyone else had already taken it for granted, he still rushed forward without any hesitation, which was tantamount to slapping Yan Yu in the face...

She really would kill someone!

At this moment, the others also realized what was happening, and some immediately turned their attention to Xiang Yangsheng, who was truly qualified to compete with Yan Yu.

"Xiang Jianzi, what do you think?"

One of the top experts on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, who was closest to the group, couldn't help but ask.

"See with your eyes."

Xiang Yangsheng glanced at him.

They seemed puzzled as to why he would ask such a simple question.

"..."

Alright, this expert on the Hidden Dragon Ranking understands this swordsman's personality.

The imagination is free.

"To attract attention."

Qi Liang, on the other hand, calmly commented on Li Xian's behavior.

"If you fail in the defense mode, you can fight again. He was the first to show his face, undoubtedly because he wanted to grab the biggest attention."

The prince consort sneered: "Although he killed a member of the Yan family before, which damaged the reputation of the Yueyang Prince's Mansion, there are thousands of people in the Yan family. For someone like Prince Yan Yu, the death of one or two people is not a big deal. But he should not have appeared at this time to act as a clown."

"Lord Qi means..."

One person echoed the question.

Qi Liang stated unequivocally, "To me, he is like a withered skeleton in a tomb."

……

"Li Xian? Have you misunderstood the rules? Do you think everyone has to go up on stage first? If so, get down here immediately!"

At this moment, Yang Xu, who was a staff member, was also worried about Li Xian, and even took out a ladder to try to help Li Xian back down.

But Li Xian simply nodded politely to him: "I came up on stage to challenge this master who has achieved the Transformation of Emptiness."

Yang Xu opened his mouth.

You also know that she is a True Qi Realm expert who has achieved the transformation from Void Refinement to True Reality.

he……

Speechless.

Li Xian turned his gaze to Yan Yu, whose face had visibly turned cold.

"Come here." He gestured with his hand, indicating "please."

“Li Xian, I don’t know much about you. I only know that you are very bold and have even killed a distant descendant of my Yan family. But I’m not interested in that.”

Yan Yu coldly said, "After all, although you are on the Hidden Dragon List, you are only ranked ninth. You are destined not to be able to leap over the Dragon Gate in this session. Even if you leap over the Dragon Gate in the next session... one step ahead, always ahead. In the future, you are destined to not even be able to see my shadow. Therefore, you are not worth my attention."

She slowly drew her sword: "But you... not only do you not know how to be low-key and patient, and try your best to avoid getting in my way, but you also dared to step onto the Five Elements Platform... and at this moment when no one dared to contradict me in taking the Dragon Gate Token, you stood in front of me..."

Li Xian tried his best to listen patiently to his opponent's speech, but the nineteenth princess was talking too much, so he couldn't help but interrupt: "Can you speak a little faster? If you're done, can we start sooner?"

He glanced at the audience and said, "After I beat you up, I still have to beat up Xiang Yangsheng."

"..."

Yan Yu's words froze.

His cold expression quickly turned into barely suppressed rage.

next second...

The sword is drawn!

All his anger was condensed into a single word.

"die!"

A dazzling sword light accompanied Yan Yu as he leaped forward to attack, his true energy erupting and tearing through the void in an instant, slashing down at Li Xian's head.

"Sword energy!?"

Li Xian immediately recognized the nature of the power unleashed by Yan Yuzhan!

Sword energy!?
It was sword energy!
At this moment, she was a full three meters away from him, yet she actually attacked from a distance, unleashing a sword aura that slashed down at his head. This extended attack range was far superior to the mere three inches of air-piercing force that could only strike from a distance!

but……

Faced with this power that was beyond Li Xian's comprehension, he neither dodged nor avoided it, but instead raised his mental state to its peak.

"it is good!"

He made a sudden move, and just as the sword energy was about to strike his head, he gripped it tightly, intending to use his flesh and blood to control the true energy.

Of course, just as his palm was about to collide with the true energy, a layer of visible blood-red light appeared on his hand.

Gang Jin!

The palm strike unleashed a powerful force, colliding violently with the sword energy that slashed down from above.

"Oh!"

True Qi and罡劲 exploded in mid-air!
Just as Li Xian was ready, his true energy was about to penetrate the internal force and blast into his arm, shattering the blood and qi within his body with unstoppable force...

Gone!

The sword energy that slashed down from three meters away was directly crushed into powder by Li Xian, who unleashed his inner strength.

It's like your loved one throwing an ice cube at you, and you grab it at the right angle and crush it.

"Ok?"

This is……

Too far apart?
Even if one's true energy is formidable, a sword strike delivered from three meters away would likely lose less than one-tenth of its power over the three-meter distance.

Li Xian was not disappointed.

Because Yan Yu himself seemed to understand that a single sword aura couldn't harm him.

Following the sword energy, her mid-air sword strike arrived immediately.

Although this sword strike was straightforward and didn't employ any sophisticated sword techniques, seemingly aimed at finishing off an opponent, but...

Compared to sword energy slashed from a distance, the true energy contained within a sharp sword is inevitably more powerful and violent.

Upon realizing this, Li Xian instantly entered a state of superlimit.

In this state, his thoughts, blood and energy all exceeded the limitations of his physical body, reaching an unprecedented limit.

The right hand that had originally shattered a wisp of sword energy suddenly charged straight in, meeting Yan Yu's unadorned, head-on sword light.

Dan Jin erupts!

With this burst of power, the second condensed burst of energy allowed his hand to almost disregard the sharpness of the sword, exquisitely grasping the blade of the precious sword she was about to strike.

"boom!"

The force of the attack collided with the sword, which contained its own power, producing a sound like metal clashing.

The expected burst of violent true energy from the sword, which was supposed to shatter his internal energy and blood, did not appear.

Although this sword strike was powerful enough to decapitate those who failed to block the first wave of sword energy, severing their heads and bones in one strike, it was no match for the even more domineering and intense Blood Refining Qi...

All the force on the sword was instantly dissipated.

Yan Yu's offensive came to an abrupt halt.
