Chapter 427 The Power of the Marquis of Rising Sky

The Marquis of Rising Sky was different from Chi Cangfeng in that he had made a name for himself much earlier than the latter. In addition, he also had a more frightening background.

A few years ago, he was already a dazzling genius talent when he had been expelled from the Forbidden City on the emperor’s order.

He was sent to the frontier because his perverse behavior and domineering attitude had sparked a lot of outrage.

Even if he hadn’t returned to the Forbidden City in the past five years, his name and news still occasionally rang out in the Forbidden City.

Rumors said that he had slaughtered countless enemies on the battlefield, and that his name was known even within the Darkness Race.

His return to the Forbidden City was a sensational event. Many people speculated on the terrifying level his strength had probably reached after five years of training on the battlefield.

How would the audience not be surprised to hear that Lin Xun dared to challenge the Marquis of Rising Sky?

“Before the birthday banquet began, Lin Xun had already clashed with the Marquis of Rising Sky on the white jade path. Moreover, to prove who was more daring, Lin Xun slaughtered three ink-dragon beasts on the spot! I didn’t expect Lin Xun to be so provocative,” someone murmured.

“Does he think that the Marquis of Rising Sky is easy to bully? Or is he really that fearless or arrogant?”

“I heard that he made a bet with the Marquis of Rising Sky. He demanded that the Marquis of Rising Sky kneel and apologize to Miss Liu Qingyan if he loses. He is so fierce!”

“Fierce? He’s asking for death! Who doesn’t know that the Marquis of Rising Sky has a bad temper? Lin Xun is just seeking death.”

Everyone thought that Lin Xun was too arrogant and ignorant to not retreat after he defeated Chi Cangfeng.

“You don’t know how tall the sky is!”

A roar erupted from above the arena like a wave of ice.

In a flash, the Marquis of Rising Sky was standing tall in the center of the arena. Clad in a blood-red robe and standing tall and straight, he resembled a godly being. His bewitchingly pretty face was filled with detached indifference, and lightning flashed in his blood-red eyes.

“Remember what you said. If you go back on your words, no one in this world can save you!”

The Marquis of Rising Sky’s feminine voice sent a chill down everyone’s spine like an ice-cold wave.

As a descendant of the imperial family, he had always acted unscrupulously and perversely. He didn’t care about anything and that was undoubtedly the most terrifying aspect of him.

Lin Xun said seriously, “I just hope you won’t forget to kneel and apologize to Miss Qingyan when you lose.”

Everyone’s eyes widened with shocked disbelief. Even some of the influential figures hiding in the dark assumed strange gazes. The bet is true.

It’s just a duel but the two had made such a bet!

The loser will have to pay a heavy price.

Comparatively speaking, Chi Cangfeng was a lot more fortunate in his defeat against Lin Xun.

“Haha, you are becoming more and more courageous. But I like it. If I fight, I should fight someone like you. It’s much more satisfying!”

As the Marquis of Rising Sky laughed, he turned his hand over and a sparkling golden halberd appeared in his grip. He simply thrust it forward.

It was very simple and direct. He seemed to treat Lin Xun like a chicken being slaughtered.

He displayed the most overbearing arrogance and unparalleled conceit. His blood-red eyes glinted coldly, and his blood-red robe billowed around him, glowing a terrifying blood-red hue.

Vaguely, everyone seemed to see a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood emerging behind him.

Boom!

The golden halberd slashed through the air, producing booming noises as it crushed the air. It aimed straight towards Lin Xun while terrifying killing intent drowned out the youth.

The terrifying pressure stifled many people, and their faces contorted with shock. They hadn’t seen the Marquis of Rising Sky for five years, but he had become so strong.

He looked like a killing god emerging from a sea of blood!

Clang!

Lin Xun slammed his fist into the giant golden halberd, and an indescribable shock wave swept out like two mountains were colliding.

The wind raged, rocks whirled into the air, and the clouds roiled.

Lin Xun was blasted back, staggering side to side. On the other hand, the Marquis of Rising Sky’s power was as strong as the sun!

Everyone watched the battle with bated breaths. From that blow, it seemed like Lin Xun wouldn’t last much longer if he didn’t bring out a treasured weapon.

“Bring out your weapon! Otherwise, I will slaughter you like a chicken!”

The Marquis of Rising Sky swung his golden halberd with monstrous arrogance and superiority.

In battle, he seemed to have become another person. His fierceness made many young women’s eyes lit up with delight and their hearts stirred.

“You’re not strong enough to make me bring out any treasure or weapon.”

Lin Xun was unscathed from the attack. He leapt into the air, the pale azure glow around him intensifying. It was as though he had transformed into a hurricane. He activated the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions to counter the attacks.

It was a duel between two top young geniuses. They both mobilized their top secret arts and activated their true killing moves. It was like a battle of life and death.

Some influential figures of the older generations felt their minds shaking. They had never possessed such earth-shaking might and power when they were young.

Boom!

Lin Xun’s fist shattered the surrounding air and slammed into the great halberd. Then, he swung his other first, aiming for the Marquis of Rising Sky’s face. However, his opponent effortlessly thrust out his palm and dissolved the incoming attack.

The impact shot splendid rays of light into the sky, dazzling the eyes and stirring the soul.

Although Lin Xun was repeatedly blasted backwards, he grew increasingly stronger. No one could imagine what kind of terrifying power was stored in his thin body.

The Marquis of Rising Sky was even more remarkable. His murderous spirit swept the arena like a tidal wave, and his great halberd seemed tyrannical and unparalleled as it danced in the air.

“So strong!” everyone marveled.

Some of the geniuses of the younger generation such as Bai Lingxi, Song Yi, Yun Fushen, and Yuchi Ze assumed solemn expressions. Lin Xun had repeatedly surprised them with his performance.

However, the Marquis of Rising Sky’s terrifying strength frightened them even more!

In truth, anyone could tell that the duel was a top battle of the Spirit Sea Stage.

Lin Xun and the Marquis of Rising Sky could be regarded as two of the best among the young geniuses of the empire!

Boom!

From afar, divine azure light was surging around Lin Xun, and blood-red murderous intent was raging around the Marquis of Rising Sky. The two were locked in a fierce battle like godly beings competing.

Bang! Bang Bang!

The collisions were as loud as a clap of thunder from the ninth heaven. Lin Xun repeatedly drew back, and his clothes were stained with blood.

The Marquis of Rising Sky’s strength was no doubt frightening. His golden halberd was like a divine weapon as it wiped out everything in its way.

Without a weapon, Lin Xun had indeed suffered a lot.

Even so, the Marquis of Rising Sky failed to suppress Lin Xun. Lin Xun’s tenacity was undoubtedly terrifying.

Everyone realized that, regardless of what the outcome of the duel was, Lin Xun had successfully risen to become one of the geniuses of the Forbidden City. He not only defeated Chi Cangfeng, but was able to also hold his ground against the Marquis of Rising Sky.

“Lin Xun, I have only used seventy percent of my strength but you almost can’t stand it anymore. I’m very disappointed!” the Marquis of Rising Sky roared, his long hair dancing in the air, his blood-red eyes shooting out lightning, and his body raging with monstrous murderous intent.

As he strode across the sky, the golden halberd in his grip was as bright as the sun and the moon. He ruthlessly lunged it toward Lin Xun’s chest fiercely.

A sharp and clear clang rang in everyone’s ear.

Bang!

It was another earth-shaking collision. The golden halberd rebounded as Lin Xun blocked the strike.

The Marquis of Rising Sky gave a sinister smile and just as he was about to swing his halberd again, he felt the halberd sink as if a tide-like force was rushing towards him. Following a boom, his hand went numb, his blood and qi tumbled within his body, and he almost lost control of the golden halberd.

“Huh?”

His pupils shrank as he sensed Lin Xun’s strength rapidly soaring!

This guy’s power is getting stronger!

Could he have been holding back his strength?

“Die!”

Unhesitatingly, the Marquis of Rising Sky swung his halberd across the air and charged forward.

Rumble—

The golden halberd erupted in a blaze of light. Endless golden waves drowned the void. Everyone’s jaw dropped. They recognized that it was another terrifying secret art.

Golden Wave Vortex Halberd!

An unfathomable inherited art of the imperial family.

However, to everyone’s surprise, although the Marquis of Rising Sky’s power had soared once again, Lin Xun still wasn’t suppressed.

Lin Xun and the Marquis of Rising Sky fiercely clashed in the arena. Their clothes were dripping with blood, and they were both constantly blasted back. But they were both growing stronger and stronger like a volcano accumulating magma!

Everyone was dumbfounded. Isn’t Lin Xun too abnormal?

Even the Marquis of Rising Sky furrowed his brow.

He is only at the intermediate Spirit Sea Stage, an entire cultivation level lower than me, but his power is soaring under my constant suppression!

How is that possible?

Bewilderment mixed with anger flashed in his eyes. He decided to unleash everything he had learned to completely suppress Lin Xun.

Boom!

Under the Marquis of Rising Sky’s series of furious attacks, a clean cut split Lin Xun’s chest and blood poured out.

Many people exclaimed in shock. The Marquis of Rising Sky is truly enraged and wants to quickly get rid of Lin Xun!

Hua Wuyou, Hua Wuhen, Song Zhe and Song Chonghe cheered excitedly. They were hoping to see such a scene.

Liu Qingyan was secretly anxious. That guy is so stupid. Why is he not using any treasure? Don’t tell me a high and mighty rune grandmaster doesn’t even have a weapon.

Is the outcome of the duel about to be decided?

The other influential figures’ attention was fixed on the battle. In truth, they were already very surprised that Lin Xun could survive this long by just using his bare hands.

They breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that he had finally been injured. It would be too shocking if the Marquis of Rising Sky couldn’t do anything to Lin Xun.
