Chapter 123: Breaking Through and Slaying Cao Ang
Xu Yang spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face actually looked a bit rosier. Hai Yue and the others slightly relaxed, this mouthful of blood was a good thing for Xu Yang, it meant he hadn't suffered any internal injuries, and still had the strength to fight again.
Cao Ang's face turned gloomy as he said, "You can actually withstand my Thunderbolt Extreme Lightning? You're not bad. Next, I'll get serious."
Xu Yang's eyes remained indifferent, and with a flick of his wrist, he slapped out the Flame Giant Seal.
A roaring flame giant palm burst out, suddenly swelling up to the height of a person, and slapped Cao Ang with fierce force.
Cao Ang's palms moved in opposite directions, two electric arcs crackling loudly. One end was held in his hand, the other seemed like a spiritual snake spitting out electricity, swallowing and spitting out electric sparks. The ends of the two electric arcs extended rapidly, forming a bright silver electric net that blocked the giant flame palm.
A deafening explosion shook the air, and a massive flame palm extinguished everything. Cao Ang's face flashed with a faint blue light, secretly astonished by Xu Yang's majestic and mysterious power.
He didn't show any weakness on his face: "You think the Human Stage Xuan Technique is something to be ashamed of? Look at my [Double Dragon Lockbone]!" He shook his arms, and two electric arcs surged again, transforming into two silver dragons that pounced towards Xu Yang.
This move is more powerful than the initial "Thunder Dragon Bind", not only is the binding force greater, but it's also harder to dodge.
Xu Yang deeply felt the power of a Xuan Shi. Until now, he had defeated or even killed Xuan Shis by relying on the Small Xuan Forbidden Array, which to some extent restricted his opponent's Xuan Li and allowed him to win with his powerful physical strength. Now, however, he would have to rely on his late-stage Xuan Shi cultivation to fight across ranks against high-level Xuan Shi opponents.
What's more, his opponent wasn't an ordinary cultivator, but a talented young man who had qualified for the "Dragon Hidden List"!
"Hurry up and break through the Xuan Shi boundary, and soon transform into your original Xuan Ling!" Xu Yang thought to himself, his eyes fixed tightly on the two Lei Dragons in front of him. "However, even if I only have the cultivation of a late-stage Xuan Shi now, I am not afraid!"
A heat wave rolled, a flame stream pierced the air, Xu Yang's palms between them, slapped out six times 【Flame Giant Handprint】, forming a huge defensive circle, rushing towards the two Thunder Dragons!
This time, no matter how the two Lei Long avoided shaking their heads and tails, they inevitably collided fiercely with the flame giant palm!
In the starry sea, the seven mysterious wheels rotated in reverse, extracting the surging mysterious energy and injecting it into the Fire Extreme Mysterious Wheel! The crimson Fire Extreme Mysterious Wheel burst forth with resplendent light once more. The majestic and powerful fire-attribute energy surged out through Xu Yang's meridians.
Just as the two Lei Long were blocked, Xu Yang clapped his palms together and relied on his powerful Xuan Li to slap out six 【Flame Giant Hand Imprints】 again!
Even if it was Xuyang Ba Ji who was practicing together, he still felt a sense of emptiness in the Star Sea.
At this time, the scorching heat wave had thoroughly distorted the air, and the withered leaves and soil particles on the winter ground were swept away by the strong wind, making the battlefield hazy and almost invisible.
Cao Ang was shocked in his heart, his proud method was to use moves like "Lei Long Fu" and "Double Dragon Lock Bone" to bind the enemy, then use moves like "Surprise Thunder Extreme Electricity" that require momentum but have extremely strong killing power to kill the enemy. Now Xu Yang actually used the cultivation of a late-stage Xuan Shi to forcefully resist the binding of "Double Dragon Lock Bone", how could he not be shocked!
His hands relaxed, and the two Thunder Dragons that had transformed out of them lost contact with his mind. Cao Ang's face turned pale as he realized that the Thunder Dragons had been destroyed.
In the midst of rolling thick smoke and heat waves, a blue shadow quickly pounced out. Xu Yang held the ancient Ding sword, and with no fancy moves, stabbed out with one swift stroke! On the dark yellow blade, a huge edge constructed purely from Huo Xuan's power, swiftly pierced Cao Ang.
Cao Ang's face changed again, his hands formed a seal, embracing the ball-shaped, silver-white Lei Extreme Xuan force burst out, and soon in front of half a foot, condensed into a huge thunderball.
This silver-white thunderball contains a vast power of thunder and lightning, and is also an all-around defensive and offensive Xuan mystic technique, a sinister trap!
If Xu Yang's sword pierced into the thunderball, he would immediately be firmly absorbed by the positive and negative forces contained within it. Even if he could struggle free afterwards, it would still give Cao Ang time to prepare his killing move.
Think of that stunning Thunderbolt, it's really frightening, and we can't let Cao Ang accumulate his strength successfully. Otherwise, within close range, it would be absolutely impossible to dodge.
Xu Yang's face remained unchanged, as cold and indifferent as a thousand-year-old ice.
On top of Gu Ding's sword, a sharp arc-shaped mysterious mark suddenly lit up.
"Smash!"
The enormous power of Huo Yuan, as if unhindered, pierced through the thunderball, just like a parallel slide. The huge repulsive force wrapped around the periphery of the thunderball and the strong absolute attractive force hidden in the inner circle did not play any role at all!
"How is this possible!" Cao Ang's eyes nearly bulged out, he had used all his strength to cast the 【Thunder Welcome】 giant sphere, could it be that it was just an illusion?
With a loud "poof", Cao Ang felt an intense pain in his chest, he lowered his head and saw the giant flame shadow of Gu Dingjian's sword had already pierced through his chest.
"No! Impossible!" This was what all the genius youngsters of Dalberg City thought.
Cao Ang's exceptional strength had long been rooted in their hearts, and he was their spiritual leader. To know that in Daliang City, Cao Ang had a record of killing three Xuan Shi-level masters. His name had not yet appeared on the Hidden Dragon List, but his strength absolutely qualified him to enter the Hidden Dragon List.
Now, such a talented and promising young man has ended up like this! How can one not be shocked and terrified?
Xu Yang slowly withdrew the Gu Ding sword, and the Huo Xuan force was like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, being absorbed into the Star Sea.
Strictly speaking, half the credit for this successful kill should go to Gu Dingjian. Gu Dingjian is indeed a worthy Heaven-tier mystic artifact, with its "Fierce Strike" mystic pattern able to pierce through any defensive shield when used properly, and its power is unmatched.
The patterns such as "Light Shadow" and "Blazing Flame" engraved on the Xuanqi are primary Xuantie. The patterns like "Iron Cutter" and "Fierce Edge" can be considered intermediate Xuantie. As for the patterns like "Breaking Strike" and "Flame Bind", they are undoubtedly advanced Xuantie.
The more advanced the mysterious pattern, the more it needs to be laid out with elementary and intermediate mysterious patterns, in order to be engraved on the mysterious device. This is the same principle as building a house, only when the foundation is well laid can a high-rise building be built, with glazed tiles and flying eaves.
"You, you rely on the power of the mysterious device, I don't accept it..." Cao Ang roared in his throat, his pair of eyes staring tightly at Xu Yang.
"Xu Yang is a mysterious master, crossing ranks to fight against the mysterious master, using the mysterious device, what's the big deal? Are you not allowed to use it?" Yu Xuan Yu hummed and said.
Cao Ang's body fell to the ground, and a brilliant young man of his generation thus returned to the underworld.
"Who else?" Xu Yang asked lightly as he sheathed his sword.
A group of young people in Daliang City looked at each other in dismay.
It was unclear who started it, but one by one, the young men slowly made their way down the mountain peak. Among them, even the weakest had a cultivation level that surpassed Xu Yang's, yet under his intimidation, not a single one dared to challenge him.
