Ten Thousand Dragons Technique-Chapter 172: Duel with the Star Body!

Tian Xing turned his head and saw a figure standing quietly behind him.

His eyes bulged. You? How is that possible?

Tian Xing was dumbfounded; he couldn’t believe it. He shut his eyes and shook his head frantically, trying to clear his mind. When he opened them again, he saw it was still Lin Xuan standing there.

How is this possible? How could it be this kid? How could this kid have come this far?

At this moment, Tian Xing’s mind went blank. He had assumed that the person catching up to him was either Ouyang Jie or Beiming. Both were Seven-Star Martial Generals and peerless geniuses, with strength no weaker than his own. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

But the result? It was neither of them. It was Lin Xuan.

Who was Lin Xuan? A mere Four-Star Martial General. Tian Xing had never taken him seriously. Even though Lin Xuan had performed many miracles before, such as defeating Song Tiange while being three cultivation levels lower, what did that matter? Song Tiange was only a Six-Star Martial General, far inferior to a Seven-Star Martial General.

But now, Lin Xuan stood right behind him. This was a feat that only a Seven-Star Martial General should have been able to accomplish. Could it be that this kid’s strength has reached such a heaven-defying level?

"Get out of my way. Good dogs don’t block the path," Lin Xuan said coldly. "You’re in my way."

"What did you say?" Tian Xing was furious.

Is this kid challenging me? He trembled with rage. He and Lin Xuan were already enemies; Lin Xuan was an enemy of the Star Pavilion. The boy had crippled far too many disciples from the Star Pavilion and had even brazenly challenged their First Senior Brother, Chu Zhongtian. He was the pinnacle of arrogance. And now, he was calling him a dog! It was infuriating.

Tian Xing’s face turned incredibly grim as he glared daggers at Lin Xuan. I originally planned on dealing with you after I got the treasure, but since you’re here begging for death, you can’t blame me for what happens next.

"Die!" He raised his fist and threw a punch at Lin Xuan.

A deafening BOOM, like a sudden crack of thunder, made everyone’s heart pound in their chests. At that moment, countless people looked up and saw Tian Xing throwing a punch.

What was going on? Someone was fighting! It was Tian Xing!

Good heavens! Attacking here was like fighting while carrying countless mountains on your back. The pressure was terrifying. This Tian Xing truly lives up to his reputation as a top genius, to still have the strength to attack here.

Everyone was utterly shocked. Just standing on the steps already took all of their strength; they had no extra energy to fight. But Tian Xing? He was standing on the 98th step, shouldering immense pressure, yet he still had the power to attack. It was simply heaven-defying.

Who is he attacking? Who is standing on the 97th step?

Everyone was deeply curious, but they could only see a figure’s back.

Someone wondered aloud, "Could it be Ouyang Jie or Beiming?"

"No, it’s not them. Ouyang Jie is on the 95th step, and Beiming is on the 93rd," another person pointed out, as the crowd located the figures of the two geniuses.

They grew even more puzzled. There were only three Seven-Star Martial Generals, and their positions were clear. So who was standing on the 97th step? Who on earth was Tian Xing attacking? They were completely bewildered.

"He’s making a move!" Beiming exclaimed. Can Lin Xuan block this? Last time, he defeated Fire Dance by relying on the Water and Fire Spirit Pearl! Will he use the Dual Spirit Pearls again?

"He probably won’t be able to withstand it," Ouyang Jie said, shaking his head. Even though Lin Xuan had managed to reach the 97th step, he still didn’t believe Lin Xuan could win.

Just as the punch was about to land on Lin Xuan, he also made a move. He raised his hand and slapped forward. The palm struck the fist, creating a heaven-shattering roar. The fist was sent flying, and Tian Xing’s body swayed, nearly causing him to fall from the steps.

"How is that possible? You actually blocked my attack!" Tian Xing was stunned, his entire arm tingling with numbness.

He actually blocked it! Ouyang Jie’s face was a mask of astonishment.

Beiming’s pupils constricted. In his mind, even if Lin Xuan could block the attack, he would have had to use both of his Spirit Pearls. But he hadn’t used any Spirit Pearls at all; he had deflected the blow with a simple slap.

What does this mean? It means Lin Xuan’s Physique is every bit as strong as Tian Xing’s! How is this possible? Beiming couldn’t believe it.

He could accept Lin Xuan fighting above his level by relying on his Spirit Pearls. But now he discovered that Lin Xuan could do it even without them, using only his own Physique. That was much harder to accept. What kind of Physique is this, that allows him to fight across three major cultivation levels? I’ve never seen such a Physique, or even heard of one. Is this guy really a monster?

Beiming was profoundly shaken, and a wave of lingering fear washed over him. Thank goodness I was rational enough not to attack him earlier. Otherwise, I would have met a miserable end.

Lin Xuan slapped the fist away and said coldly, "You’re courting death by fighting me. Get lost. I don’t have time to waste on you."

Lin Xuan’s goal wasn’t to fight, but to enter the palace. He wanted to obtain the third Spirit Pearl.

This dismissive attitude thoroughly enraged Tian Xing. "You damn brat! You have completely infuriated me! I will make you pay the price!" Tian Xing roared as spiritual power erupted from him. Countless points of starlight bloomed from his body, coalescing into a shimmering river of stars. He swung his fist again, launching it like a meteorite plummeting from the sky.

RUMBLE...

The air roared as if it were about to shatter, and the entire mountain path began to tremble. Countless onlookers cried out in alarm.

This Tian Xing is too terrifying! Is this his true strength?

"That’s the Meteor Fist!" Ouyang Jie exclaimed. It was an Ultimate Skill Fist Technique that, when combined with the Star Body, possessed immense power. This time, the kid shouldn’t be able to withstand it, right?

With a thunderous crash, Lin Xuan was knocked back. He stumbled from the 97th step down to the 95th.

He was pushed back! The onlookers exclaimed.

Ouyang Jie sighed. As expected, he’s no match. Tian Xing is still stronger. That Meteor Fist is truly incredible; even I might not be able to withstand it.

Still, one had to admit that Lin Xuan was astonishingly resilient. He took the Meteor Fist head-on and was only knocked back a couple of steps without sustaining any serious injuries. It was truly unbelievable.

"You’re still too green to fight me!" Tian Xing snorted, finally having forced his opponent back. I knew it! How could he possibly be my match?

He looked down on him and declared, "Brat, kneel and accept your death. I’ll grant you a quick one."

Gasps rippled through the crowd as they finally recognized the figure. It was the Young Pill King, Lin Xuan! The fact that he had also managed to climb to the 97th step was simply incredible. He truly was a peerless genius!

"Alas, so what if his talent is great? So what if he’s strong? He’s still no match for Tian Xing."

"Didn’t you see the killing intent in Tian Xing’s eyes? He has no intention of letting Lin Xuan go."

"Unless Lin Xuan kneels and begs for mercy, he’s a dead man."
