CHAPTER 873: CHAPTER 873: BRINGING SHAME UPON ONESELF

The Heaven and Earth Power in the void is extremely scarce, once it is overly consumed, their strength will drastically decrease.

However, in the outside world.

One can almost replenish the Heaven and Earth Power at any time and place, there’s virtually no consumption to speak of.

Therefore, cultivators generally seldom fight in the void.

But Ling Chen is different.

He not only masters Heaven and Earth Power but also some Void Power.

Although he cannot reach the level of mastery of Heaven and Earth Power, in the void, relying solely on Void Power is enough for self-protection.

So, entering the void.

Is instead, somewhat beneficial for Ling Chen.

It took quite a while for everyone to react.

Undeniably, this move by Ling Chen is indeed effective.

But even if fighting in the void, Xu Ao is still destined to win!

After all, every attack by Xu Ao requires Ling Chen to counter-attack twice to neutralize it.

"How about a draw?"

Ling Chen looked at Xu Ao, a hint of coldness surging in his eyes.

If it weren’t for some of his methods, he might have been seriously injured by now.

Previously, he always pinned his hopes on the seventh style of the Green Lotus Sword Manual, and now it seems that he also has to cultivate other Emperor Spirit Techniques.

"Young Master Ling, don’t be too naive!"

Xu Ao sneered.

He is a two-star emperor and is using Emperor Spirit Techniques; how could he possibly be unable to match a one-star emperor like Ling Chen?

What’s more concerning is, he volunteered to come forward and teach Ling Chen a lesson.

But it had no effect at all.

Then Li Xuankong would definitely not let him off.

His future days would absolutely be unpleasant.

"It seems you are seeking humiliation on your own!"

Ling Chen’s eyes turned cold.

"Just with you, you want to defeat me? Kid, arrogant!"

Xu Ao said coldly.

"Green Lotus Dragon Transformation!"

Ling Chen stopped talking, immediately wielding the sixth style of the Green Lotus Sword Manual again.

However, employing it in the void would subject it to the pressure of the Void Power.

Reducing its power.

Yet, Ling Chen utilized the Void Barrier to envelop every strand of Sword Qi.

The power didn’t lessen a bit.

Even the final formed cyan-red giant dragon was also surrounded by a faint layer of Void Barrier.

Finally, Ling Chen endowed it with over a tenth of the Heaven and Earth Power.

The cyan-red giant dragon charged towards Xu Ao with tremendous force.

The crowd showed a puzzled look.

Ling Chen initiating the attack first did catch them off guard.

However, even so, could Ling Chen actually achieve victory?

Li Xuankong’s eyes showed a trace of surprise.

Ling Chen hadn’t been in the Emperor Realm for more than ten days, yet, the Heaven and Earth Power he controlled exceeded one-tenths.

It was as if he had ascended a long time ago.

Completely unlike a newly promoted emperor.

But soon, he felt relieved.

With just this little Heaven and Earth Power, defeating Xu Ao would be as hard as climbing to heaven for Ling Chen.

Now he was just struggling desperately in vain.

"Little tricks!"

Xu Ao sneered.

Even in the void, his attack power far surpasses Ling Chen.

"Azure Light Mysterious Thunder Seal!"

Xu Ao thought silently, terrifying spiritual power swept out, passing through the Emperor Spirit Weapon in his hand, forming one terrifying Sword Qi after another.

Then, the Sword Qi quickly condensed into a massive seal.

Finally, enhanced with two-tenths of Heaven and Earth Power.

The giant seal roared out, pressing towards the cyan-red giant dragon.

"Hmm?"

Feeling the power of the giant seal, Li Xuankong couldn’t help but frown.

The power of this seal was considerably weaker compared to before.

Moreover, its power was still diminishing.

However, in contrast, Ling Chen’s attack power had not decreased at all.

It’s as if the void didn’t affect it.

"This kid truly has some skills!"

Li Xuankong’s heart slightly shook.

Ling Chen’s way of entering the void was different from theirs.

And now, feeling Ling Chen’s attacks, he was even more convinced, Ling Chen’s tactics were indeed strange.

"Boom!"

The giant seal and the cyan-red dragon violently collided.

Amidst the terrifying energy waves, the surroundings were chaotically ravaged.

But this time, the giant seal no longer swept everything before it like before, instead, the two sides were in a deadlock.

"How can it be?!"

At this moment, almost everyone widened their eyes, filled with disbelief.

Ling Chen was actually barely able to contend with the Emperor Spirit Technique?

"Now’s the time!"

Ling Chen’s eyes turned cold.

His figure suddenly rushed towards Xu Ao.

In the void, with the assistance of Void Power, he was like a fish in water.

Additionally endowed with Heaven and Earth Power.

Ling Chen’s speed was exceedingly fast.

Within a breath, he reached the point where the seal and the dragon clashed.

At this moment, the cyan-red dragon finally could not withstand the giant seal.

And was eventually shattered.

As the dragon dissipated, the giant seal pressed directly towards Ling Chen.

"Slash!"

Ling Chen held the Mystic Sword, azure-red Sword Qi spewed forth, also blessed with Heaven and Earth Power.

"Bang!"

The Sword Qi fiercely crashed down on the giant seal.

Breaking it instantly.

After that, the Mystic Sword carried a world-shattering power and slashed upward.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound was heard as a crack appeared on the giant seal, then spread around like a spider web.

"Bang!"

It finally dissipated directly into endless spiritual energy.

"What?!"

Xu Ao’s eyes widened to their limits, utterly unable to believe what unfolded before him.

Ling Chen actually strong-armed his Emperor Spirit Technique away?

"It’s your turn!"

Ling Chen revealed a fierce glint in his eyes.

This person had struck him ruthlessly, so he saw no need to relent.

Ling Chen continued rushing towards Xu Ao.

The reason why he was able to easily dispel Xu Ao’s attack this time was mainly by leveraging the advantage in the void while also employing the power of physical strength and the Mystic Sword.

Xu Ao’s seal was condensed from nearly a thousand strands of Sword Qi.

However, when these nearly thousand strands of Sword Qi were executed, they were suppressed by the void.

The power decreasing somewhat.

Although a single strand of Sword Qi didn’t seem like much.

However, once condensed into a seal, the difference was clear.

It could even be said that Xu Ao’s seal barely reached the minimum standard for an Emperor Spirit Technique.

At most, it was only slightly stronger than Green Lotus Dragon Transformation.

This is why Ling Chen’s Green Lotus Dragon Transformation could barely cope.

In conclusion, Ling Chen, using physical power and wielding the Mystic Sword, attacked again.

Naturally, he could dispel this attack.

The distance between the two wasn’t far.

Ling Chen in the void was like a fish in water, rapidly closing in on Xu Ao.

"Be careful!"

Li Xuankong was the first to react, loudly reminding him.

Upon hearing this, Xu Ao finally realized.

Yet by then, Ling Chen had already arrived before Xu Ao.

"You asked for this!"

Ling Chen sneered, brandishing the Mystic Sword as he abruptly slashed at Xu Ao’s left arm.

"Tss!"

The Mystic Sword directly severed Xu Ao’s left arm.

"Ah!"

Only then did Xu Ao react, letting out a heartrending scream.

His body trembling, eyes filled with terror as he stared at Ling Chen.

For an Emperor Realm expert, a severed limb is nothing.

Relying on spiritual power and Heaven and Earth Power, it could be quickly repaired.

Yet losing this battle was a severe blow to Xu Ao.

A two-star emperor with Emperor Spirit Techniques, yet his arm was severed by a one-star emperor.

What’s more terrifying is, he had no idea how it happened?

"I warned you before, not to seek humiliation on your own accord!"

Ling Chen sheathed his sword and stood firm.

Looking at Xu Ao, Ling Chen understood that he had nothing to fear from someone like him.
