Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 270 - 279: Spectacular Performance
Every move Chu Linfeng made attracted the attention of everyone in the training ground, even Luo Ping was very curious about his strike.
Attacking the large bell from such a distance seemed rather inconceivable, many thought he was acting crazy; even if he feared being hurt by the rebound force, retreating so far seemed unnecessary.
Some who initially thought Chu Linfeng could take first place changed their minds and felt disappointed by his current performance.
Only a few were truly astonished by Chu Linfeng’s attack, among them was Luo Ping.
"I never expected this kid to comprehend the Heart Sword. Look at the attack from these two strands of Sword Qi — they achieved perfect fusion simultaneously, which can only be done with Dual Heart Use. This is something!" Luo Ping thought to himself.
At this moment, Chu Linfeng’s Heart Sword attack had already struck the large bell. After reaching the Eighth Level of Earth Martial Realm, his attack power evidently increased significantly.
The strike similarly caused a slight vibration in the space, although very subtle, many still felt it.
The massive bell sound immediately echoed in everyone’s ears, and the large bell swung back and forth under the stone pillar continuously.
The sound of the bell lasted quite a long time, and Chu Linfeng was very satisfied with this Heart Sword attack.
However, many were dumbfounded by this moment; such a long-distance strike surprisingly had such strong attack power — it was a fact hard for them to accept immediately.
With Chu Linfeng’s current bell sound duration, it seems it may be a bit difficult to enter the top three. Everyone looked forward to his next attack because he was entirely unscathed at the moment.
"The duration is forty-nine seconds!" Luo Ping announced the result at this time.
Chu Linfeng prepared to step down upon hearing the result; this was already enough to enter the final stage, so there was no need to use the Demon-Breaking Fist anymore.
Upon seeing Chu Linfeng move to forfeit, the crowd erupted; many couldn’t help but shout out, urging him to attack once more.
Chu Linfeng shook his head upon hearing these shouts, thinking to himself, do they really hold me in such high regard? Are they only satisfied when I embarrass myself?
"Zhao Long, your performance is impressive, but I know this isn’t your real strength. The Royal Guard needs to witness your maximum attack power so they can assign different positions and training areas; playing it safe might cost you," Luo Ping said.
Actually, he also wanted to see Chu Linfeng’s most powerful attack; this youth was too mysterious. He unexpectedly managed to reach ninety meters within the Gravity Chamber using just Earth Martial Realm strength — an unbelievable feat.
Luo Ping knew the conditions of the Gravity Chamber very well; the gravitational pressure at the ninety-meter point was extremely oppressive. Even those at the Fourth Layer of Celestial Martial Realm found it challenging to reach, yet he was merely at Earth Martial Realm, which required not only strong physical defense but also unwavering spirit and perseverance.
Chu Linfeng hesitated somewhat after hearing Luo Ping’s words, not because he was unwilling, but because he felt concerned.
Humans fear fame like pigs fear growing fat; he was currently a nationally wanted criminal. If he genuinely entered the top three, it would attract excessive attention, leading to endless troubles.
"Lin Feng, your concerns aren’t unfounded, but opportunities often come with dangers. Gaining his attention is an enormous chance, facilitating access to Yuwen Qingkong in the future.
Yuwen Qingkong gave you that token, which you can’t use yet because at the time your name was Niu Tian; now, Niu Tian is equivalent to being a wanted criminal. It’s uncertain whether the real Niu Tian will be affected — this might have brought trouble to him," Sword Spirit remarked.
Chu Linfeng was suddenly startled upon hearing this, realizing he hadn’t considered this issue. Hearing Sword Spirit’s reasoning, indeed, it could involve him.
"What shall I do? He won’t be in danger, right?" Chu Linfeng immediately asked.
"Logically, not now, but the longer it goes on, the more likely it becomes. If you directly become Luo Ping’s confidante, you can return to Celestial Dragon Academy to handle these matters, and spend time with those women of yours," Sword Spirit replied.
Chu Linfeng thought over Sword Spirit’s words and found them reasonable; some things couldn’t be avoided. He made up his mind and respectfully approached Luo Ping, saying: "Since the Grand General hopes Zhao Long will attack once more, Zhao Long shall do his utmost."
Upon receiving Chu Linfeng’s confirmation, Luo Ping smiled and said: "I hope this time you won’t disappoint me!"
His tone clearly showed how much he valued Chu Linfeng, making many in the training ground rather envious.
This time, Chu Linfeng walked directly to within a meter of the large bell and halted, taking a deep breath and mentally reviewing the execution of Demon-Breaking Fist.
"Do you think his attack this time will rank first?" someone couldn’t help but ask.
"First? You’re dreaming! Earth Martial Realm strength taking first place — that means he could easily slaughter us Celestial Martial Realm folks!" someone grumbled in dissatisfaction.
"I don’t care whether he’s first; I just want to see if such a close distance will leave him hurt by the rebound force. It’d be glorious for him to enter the top hundred with his current realm!" another commented.
At this time, Luo Er Mu carefully approached Wei Qun and asked: "Do you think Brother Long will be severely hurt by the rebound from this strike?"
Wei Qun immediately snapped: "Did you grow up eating shit or what? What good would it bring you for Brother Long to be hurt? He treats you like a brother, and yet you say such things!"
Luo Er Mu’s face turned bright red from Wei Qun’s scolding. "I’m just concerned for him. Why should you get so worked up?"
"I refuse to pay attention to you; right now is Brother Long’s critical moment, so I need to watch closely!" Wei Qun replied.
Chu Linfeng completely ignored the idle gossip circulating in the training ground, focusing entirely on executing the Demon-Breaking Fist.
At this moment, his heart was as still as water, with the Chaos Qi within the Earth Star Pill frantically cycling, proceeding to Dual Heart Use.
Chaos Qi infused both arms separately, and once he felt it was sufficient, he suddenly opened his eyes, swiftly extending his right fist directly onto the large bell.
While withdrawing his fist, his left fist quickly followed, although he took a step back as he punched.
His right hand had executed the Demon-Breaking Fist’s Fifth Form, which left half of the Chaos Qi within the Earth Star Pill drained. The results were exactly as he anticipated.
His left hand executed the Demon-Breaking Fist’s Third Form, which emptied the remaining Chaos Qi by half, leaving him with less than thirty percent Chaos Qi altogether, causing his complexion to pale. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Such a substantial expenditure of Chaos Qi, along with the execution of an Earth Tier Top Grade martial skill, naturally resulted in considerable potency. As the fist struck the large bell, intense vibrations erupted throughout the surrounding space, followed by...
