“Looking for death.”
The Skeleton Helmsman shouted sternly upon seeing this and immediately stepped forward to intercept.
Whoosh!
A black hurricane transformed into a sea of demonic energy, covering the sky and blocking the sun, shrouding the Xu Feng Sword Emperor like a canopy.
“Feng Ling Sword Art—Hurricane Fury!”
With a roar, Xu Feng Martial Emperor unleashed a powerful wind above his head, a manifestation of his bloodline power—Storm Bloodline.
This was also the origin of his title as Xu Feng Martial Emperor.
The bloodline power merged with the sword light, and in an instant, the overwhelming sword energy fused together, transforming into a storm of sword light that burst forth with a loud bang, shattering the black demonic energy that obscured him.
After piercing through the black demonic energy, the sword energy storm rapidly diminished, eventually leaving around one-third of its original might, yet it still bore a terrifying aura as it ruthlessly slashed down towards Qin Chen.
Boom!
Even though it was only one-third of its power remaining, the fearsome aura still surged forward. This was a ruler of swordsmanship, an unparalleled powerhouse.
Whether in the Tianwu Continent or the Martial Domain, a Martial Emperor-level powerhouse could be considered a formidable figure. Even within the ranks of the Nineth Level Martial God, a Martial Emperor could still secure a position.
Standing at the side, Qin Chen scoffed coldly and finally moved. Boom! His figure swayed, and a mysterious rusty sword appeared in hand, meeting the strike head-on.
“You don’t know the meaning of death!” Xu Feng Martial Emperor sneered, astonished that Qin Chen dared to clash head-on, his brain must be fried.
Bang!
In the impact of the clash, Qin Chen was instantly sent flying, but he immediately twisted his body, stabilizing himself to stand firmly. Apart from a slight flush on his face, he exhibited no signs of distress.
Who let him break through the Undying Sacred Body to the peak of the sixth layer? Coupled with his advancement to the late stage of the seventh layer, in terms of defense, he was stronger than Xu Feng Martial Emperor. Even an early-stage Martial Emperor of the eighth layer would find it hard to injure him with a single blow.
Xu Feng Martial Emperor's eyes bulged in disbelief, unable to accept what he was witnessing.
“You actually managed to block my Hurricane Fury!” he almost shouted.
Are you even human?
He was a peak early-stage Martial Emperor of the eighth layer, and the Hurricane Fury was a full-force attack. Even if it was diminished to one-third of its strength, it should not be something a late-stage Martial King could withstand.
Let alone a late-stage Martial King, an ordinary early-stage Martial Emperor would get injured, while a half-step Martial Emperor would be directly crushed.
He had also considered that Qin Chen possessed that strange cauldron, hence he hadn’t held back.
But what about Qin Chen?
With the cultivation of a late-stage Martial King, he actually blocked his attack, making it impossible for Xu Feng Martial Emperor to believe.
Even if this guy was a genius in swordsmanship capable of fighting above his level, corresponding to the strength of a half-step Martial Emperor, it would still be impossible for him to withstand such a blow from him.
This guy is simply not human.
“Didn’t expect that, did you?” Qin Chen chuckled.
“Impossible! This absolutely cannot be!” Xu Feng Martial Emperor roared, unable to accept this reality.
Qin Chen sighed, “Trash like you has stepped into the Martial Emperor realm, yet I only have a seventh-tier cultivation. Heaven is truly unfair.”
Hearing his grievances, Xu Feng Martial Emperor became even more enraged.
What did he mean by calling him trash? How much effort and hardship had he endured to transition from a late-stage Martial King to an early-stage Martial Emperor? He had finally broken through, and his strength had undergone a qualitative change.
But this kid? He blocked his attack with late-stage Martial King cultivation and still dared to speak condescendingly.
