Chapter 47: Battle of the Strong
The Eastern Phoenix left unwillingly, and the little princess walked to Chen Nan with Xiao Yu in her arms and whispered, "Scum you've completely enraged her, you'll be in big trouble in the future, hee hee." After saying that she also left the scene.
There were quite a number of Eastern Phoenix's suitors in the crowd of onlookers, they were gazing at Chen Nan angrily, with the possibility of swarming at any time.
At this time, the Eastern Elder spoke, "Don't gather around and watch, quickly disperse."
The onlookers were intimidated by Old Man Dongfang's authority and eventually dispersed.
After that, Old Man Dongfang came close to Chen Nan and said, "Bastard kid."
"Bastard old man stop" Chen Nan interrupted him and said: "This time and I have nothing to do with it, your granddaughter gathered a group of people to surround me, she wanted to find me trouble, so it can be said that I am the victim."
The old man of the East said: ''I shucks, brat, I don't have time to theorize with you now, let's settle the score slowly in the future. Just now, the vice dean has approached me and asked me to let you off the hook, our three day appointment will be canceled for the time being, and we will clean you up later."
Walking out of the gates of the Divine Wind Academy, Chen Nan felt that he had been conspired against by the Vice Dean and Old Man Dongfang, and that these two had forced him to compete at the Immortal Martial Academy.
''It must have been this old fox, the Vice Dean, who asked Old Man Dongfang to scare me, this despicable and shameless old thing,'' he kept cursing.
To a certain extent, if Baby Dragon hadn't recognized Chen Nan as the one who had dropped the chili powder that night, he wouldn't have been threatened by the Vice Dean at all now. He had never expected that this cute little dragon was actually a fifth-ranked Saint Dragon, and up until this point, he had some difficulty believing it in his heart.
According to what the vice dean said, the baby dragon had an eccentric personality and was curious about anything new. The reason why he was affectionate towards him now was mostly because he took him as a playmate.
"Hmm, we should take this opportunity to let it teach that shameless old man another lesson, as well as that hateful old man from the East."
By this time, Chen Nan had already walked into an alley, and while he was rambling, a cold, chilling light came at him head-on like lightning.
Chen Nan was startled and hurriedly dodged sideways, the cold light brushed past him, but immediately swung back. At this moment, he could already see that the cold light was a round moon scimitar, the scimitar that cut back was chilly, flashing with a demonic light, and seemed to be even swifter than just now. He once again shifted his body to the side, and the killing aura of the round moon scimitar broke through the air.
In the depths of the alley a cold looking young man with a scimitar in his hand blocked Cinnan's path, this young man had sword brows and tiger eyes, handsome, and although his figure was not very tall, he gave off a powerful feeling.
"Scum I've been waiting for you for a long time." The youth gazed coldly at Chen Nan, and the entire alley was filled with a murderous aura.
"Why did you attack me?"
"To see if you are worthy of my attack, if you can't even dodge this blade, I have no need to fight you."
"Who are you?"
"Leng Feng, I want to challenge you."
"I don't know you at all. Why are you challenging me?"
"You flirted with the Eastern Phoenix first, and won the battle with the Magic Department second, and now your name is well known in the Divine Wind Academy. Although it's somewhat despicable, there's no denying that you're an expert, and I'm going to challenge you."
Chen Nan said: ''So you are challenging me for martial arts''
Leng Feng said, "This is only one of the reasons, there is another reason, I want to teach you a hard lesson on behalf of Phoenix."
Chen Nan had a headache, he had already heard that some of the students might be looking for a duel with him, but he did not expect it to come to him so soon.
"There's no need for us to fight, right? Well, it's my treat, let's find a place to go and have a couple drinks."
Leng Feng's face was still icy cold as he raised the round moon scimitar in his hand and said, "Today's battle between you and me is inevitable. If you are able to defeat me, I naturally have nothing to say but to blame myself for not learning the art well. However, if you lose, don't blame me for being merciless.''
A compelling pressure surged towards Chen Nan from the cold front, the Round Moon Scimitar emitting a cool glow in his hand.
Cinnan knew that this battle was inevitable, he waved his hand to Leng Feng and said, "Pedestrians pass by here at any time, I think we'd better change the place."
"Alright, let's go to the woods beyond the East City."
Leng Feng was in the front and Chen Nan was in the back, the two of them walked out of the alley and traveled along the street towards the outside of the city.
At this moment, it was already sunset, the western part of a burning cloud reflected the sky red, and the woods outside the city seemed to be covered with a thin layer of red veil.
Next to the woods a wide open space, Leng Feng and Chen Nan stand opposite each other at a distance of three feet apart, both of them are a face of gravity, do not dare to underestimate each other.
The round moon scimitar in Leng Feng's hand was pointing diagonally at Chen Nan's brow, and there was a hidden mist flowing near the cold blade, the killing aura startled the birds in the forest and flew away in panic.
Chen Nan had also pulled out the long knife behind his back, he had sensed the profound power of his opponent, this was definitely a formidable enemy. The long knife in his hand reflected a faint red light under the illumination of the burning clouds in the sky, as if it was stained with brightly colored blood.
"Scum are you ready for me to make my move."
"Bah, stop. For the record, my surname is Chen, if you keep calling it nonsense, don't blame me for sending you the elegant name of xxxx."
The corner of Leng Feng's mouth twitched twice, but the smile that hadn't yet had time to emerge was covered by a sheet of icy cold again. He said in a cold voice, "Prepare to receive, I hope you won't let me down."
"Oooh," the round moon scimitar emitted a gust of strange whistles, spiraling towards Chen Nan, many times more swiftly than when he was in the alley.
"The long knife in Chen Nan's hand fiercely slashed on top of the round moon scimitar, sparks shot out in the air, but the scimitar was not shaken down, and spun back at a weird angle.
Chen Nan lightning-like forward, in the moment Leng Feng held the scimitar, he had already rushed to his eyes, long knife to force split Huashan momentum in the air.
Two rays of light appeared in the air, one was the brilliant blade aura of Chen Nan, and the other was the cold and ghostly radiance inspired by Leng Feng's round moon scimitar. The enormous energy contained in the two unrivaled blade qi impacted together and emitted a cracking sound, as if the space was about to break apart, and sand and dust flew in the vicinity.
The roiling murderous aura startled the beasts hidden in the depths of the jungle into fleeing in panic, and all the beasts in the forest fled.
Chen Nan took three large steps backward in a row, as did Leng Feng, and both of them swayed a few times before stabilizing themselves.
At this point, Chen Nan was already convinced that the other party's cultivation was only above him, not below him, and it was obvious that the other party was also a third-stage Eastern martial artist.
Leng Feng said in a cold voice, "You have indeed reached the Sword Qi Out of Body Realm of the Oriental Martial Artist, you haven't let me down after all."
Those who were able to reach the rank realm were all true experts, and among Oriental martial artists, the cultivation realms of rank experts could be divided into: Refining Essence and Transforming Qi, the Realm of the Innate, Sword Qi Out of Body, Refining Qi and Transforming God, and Divine Concentration and Qi Solidification. Of course the Sword Qi in Sword Qi Out of Body was a broad concept, not just limited to Sword Qi, but also included Blade Qi and the like.
Chen Nan had just stepped into the realm of Sword Qi Out of Body from the realm of the Innate, and although he was only at the beginning of the third stage realm, he was already considered a super expert among his peers.
Chen Nan said, "You're very conceited".
Leng Feng said: ''There aren't many people amongst my peers that I can consider as a rival, rivals are hard to come by, today is truly a delightful day.'' Although he did not smile and his voice was cold, his eyes showed excitement.
Chen Nan secretly screamed that it was not good, this cold as ice guy was undoubtedly a martial arts fanatic, a vicious battle was bound to be unavoidable today, and I'm afraid it would be impossible to want to stop at the right time.
This time, Leng Feng took the initiative to attack, he held the round moon scimitar and slashed straight toward Chen Nan, the knife gas was like a rainbow, emitting an eye-catching light in the air.
Chen Nan met him with his long sword in his hand, and his unrivaled blade qi solidified as if it was like a pike, shining brightly and dazzling the eyes of the people.
"Boom"
The destructive power of the two blades colliding together was astonishingly large, the clearing at the edge of the forest was filled with flying sands and stones, and the scattered saber qi impacted the nearby ground with pits and puddles.
The two people were shocked and both flew backwards, but the moment they landed on the ground, they quickly rushed towards each other.
In the field, the blade qi swirled horizontally and horizontally, and the bright sharp edges were like thunder and lightning intertwined in the air. For a time, the place shone brightly, and the deafening 'boom boom' sound was endless.
Chen Nan and Leng Feng's two figures were like electricity, moving like two shadows of light.
The indestructible blade qi raged madly, countless huge pits appeared on the ground within the field, rocks shot out, and dust and sand flew up. The two fought from the clearing all the way to the forest, the trees fell in rows and turned into smithereens under the unrivaled blade aura, fluttering in the wind.
Dragons and tigers fought in the forest, killing aura rushed to the sky!
In just a quarter of an hour, a large area of the forest had been destroyed, but the brilliant blade awnings were still "giggling". The two of them could be described as rivals in chess and will meet a good man.
The more Chen Nan fought, the more alarmed he became, he felt that Leng Feng's strength seemed to be a step above his, which made him both shocked and uneasy.
He originally thought that with his cultivation at this time, he had few rivals in the younger generation, but at this moment, it seemed that there were people outside of people, and there was a sky outside of the sky.
Half an hour later, a small piece of woodland had been turned into flat ground, the ground was filled with wood chips and broken leaves. The movements of both men in the field had slowed down a lot, and the blade awnings in the forest were no longer as eye-catching as they were just now.
Chen Nan gradually ran out of strength, he was already feeling a bit overwhelmed, sweat dampened his clothes, and he was covered in sweat.
Leng Feng's movements were not as swift as earlier, his long hair had been soaked in sweat, locks of it sticking together, and his cold cheeks were gradually flushed.
In the end, both of them were panting heavily, both of them could no longer develop the invulnerable blade qi, the long knife and the round moon scimitar began to collide, sparks shot out in all directions, "ping ping ping ping" sound was endless.
Hundreds of moves had already passed, Chen Nan secretly saved up some true qi, ready to give Leng Feng a powerful blow. But at this moment, Leng Feng took the first step to make trouble, his hands forcefully divided, the round moon scimitar was transformed into two, the scimitar was actually composed of two sharp blades together.
The two scimitars were infused with pure internal force, fast as lightning towards Chen Nan, at the same time he quickly unlocked the long leather pouch behind his back, inside there were dozens of small round moon scimitars, each of them emitting a cold light.
Chen Nan had just avoided the two flying swirling scimitars, and to his horror, he realized that dozens of chilling flying blades had already attacked him, and with a gust of strange whistles emanating from the air, he hurriedly lay on his back and flew backwards out a distance of three feet.
Leng Feng followed the step forward, the hands of the rapid action, to those who hit the air after circling back to the return of the small round moon knife repeatedly dialing, curved knife by once again infused with true qi after becoming more bright and dazzling, to Chen Nan flying chopped and went.
From Leng Feng's movements, it could be seen that he had practiced this type of attack often, and his hands moved as swiftly as lightning.
The large rain of knives in the air was eerie, Chen Nan was unable to avoid it, he tried to use his long knife to dial a few times before finally giving up. After the scimitar was knocked away, most of the scimitars would rotate back to the cold blade again, after constantly injecting true qi into the scimitar, more swift than once, dozens of round-moon scimitars intertwined in the air to form a glittering network of knives.
The ground was pitted with many large and small pits, these pits were made by the blade qi of the initial battle between Chen Nan and Leng Feng.
Chen Nan was both shocked and scared as he accidentally fell into a half a zhang deep pit during his rapid retreat, while his long sword fell out of his hand and fell outside the pit. Although he had several moves in his mind to defuse the dangerous situation in front of him, he was unable to execute them with his current cultivation level.
He felt that he could only fight with his Dragon Tackling Hand now, and he began to gather most of the depleted true qi in his body.
As he watched the dozens of flying blades getting closer and closer, less than half a meter away from him, he raised his right hand. A golden light rose up, a huge palm of light swept toward the whistling rain of blades, the cold and shining blades disappeared into the palm of light like a mud cow into the sea.
However, after only a few moments, the palm of light gradually dimmed. Most of the flying blades fell to the ground, but there were still three scimitar blades that broke through the light shadow and swirled toward Chen Nan.
At this moment, Chen Nan had almost exhausted all of his power, looking at the three murderous flying blades, he leaned against the wall of the pit and moved his body with difficulty.
"Puh", "puh", "puh".
The three scimitar blades stuck to his cheeks and pierced into the pit wall behind him, the cold blades had zero distance contact with his face, between life and death, he finally avoided the three "kisses" of the God of Death.
At this moment, Chen Nan had already lost his strength, but after just three breaths, he fought back and started to build up the remaining true qi in his body.
Leng Feng was also exhausted at this moment, as he kept injecting his true qi into dozens of flying blades, which had almost exhausted his entire body's internal energy. However, he was slightly better than Chen Nan, and the moment the light palm disappeared, he quickly rushed forward from a few feet away.
Chen Nan had just leapt up from the pit when Leng Feng had already arrived in front of his eyes and slapped him violently with both palms.
Cinnan was forced to raise both palms to meet him, and with a loud "Boom", he was sent flying backwards, and then fell heavily to the ground from the air. Fresh blood spilled out from his mouth and nose, his chest was unusually stuffy, he knew that he had suffered a lot of internal injuries.
Leng Feng's face was pale, he retreated backward seven steps in a row before staggering and falling to the ground. He looked at Chen Nan who was not far away and said, ''I won.''
Chen Nan's five organs were burning, and the pain between his chest and abdomen was immense, as he gritted his teeth and nodded.
Leng Feng revealed his first smile since meeting Chen Nan and said, ''You really didn't let me down, a good opponent. The Dragon Tackling Hand really lives up to its name, it's a pity that I haven't seen its true power. However, I am both intent on guarding against it, and will never give you a chance to show off your skills.''
Defeated by a young man of similar age to himself, a sense of frustration welled up in Chen Nan's heart, and he lay on the ground not even bothering to move.
Leng Feng struggled to climb up first and said, "Don't lose heart, looking at the entire Divine Wind Academy, there are not many people among all the students who are my opponents. You still have a lot of room for improvement, I look forward to fighting you again."
He staggered in the direction of Sin City and said in a cold voice as he walked, ''I won't teach you a lesson this time, remember not to provoke Phoenix again, he is my sister. If I hear any more bad rumors, I will definitely not let you off so easily."
