Chapitre 26: Chapter 26: Chenxin’s Arm Severed, Yu Yuanzhen Heavily Injured!
The identity of the beautiful woman was unmistakable.
She was none other than Tang Yuehua of the Clear Sky Sect.
To connect with or perhaps pull Lu Yunzhou, this enigmatic cultivator of unfathomable powers, into their sphere, the once formidable Clear Sky Sect had now sent a woman to approach him.
The irony of it was almost laughable.
After all, in today's Douluo Continent, who would have thought that the Clear Sky Sect, once renowned across the land, would resort to sending a woman as their emissary?
"His strength is no ordinary thing," Yu Yuanzhen cautioned Chenxin, his tone grim. "If we fail today, our reputation as Soul Masters will be utterly ruined!"
As Yu Yuanzhen spoke, he braced himself, preparing to go all out.
Chenxin, his expression solemn, responded, "His swordsmanship, his skill, intent, and understanding of the sword surpass mine. If it were a one-on-one duel, I wouldn't stand a chance. But together, we might just have a chance to contend with him."
With that, Chenxin unleashed the full force of his Seven Kill Sword, activating his Seven Kill Domain.
Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi, after repeatedly confirming he had heard correctly, could not help but find his breathing grow rapid.
A Level 96 Peak Douluo, the foremost swordsman of Douluo Continent, being unable to match a mere Foundation-Establishing cultivator? This was… simply unimaginable.
Moreover, they needed to team up just to fight him.
If he hadn't witnessed it himself, Ning Fengzhi would have found it impossible to believe.
"How… can one become a cultivator?" Ning Fengzhi murmured, curiosity and uncertainty swirling in his mind. A powerful drive to uncover the mysteries of cultivation had taken root within him.
"If I became a cultivator, what would happen to my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda?"
Lost in thought, Ning Fengzhi found himself captivated by this question.
Meanwhile, the "Xue Qinghe" impostor, Snake Spear Douluo Yu Long, was watching the battle, utterly shaken. As beads of cold sweat gathered on his forehead and back, he thought grimly, *If I were to face Lu Yunzhou…*
"…I probably wouldn't last more than three moves…"
The realization filled Yu Long with an intense unwillingness, his fists clenching in frustration.
After all the blood, sweat, and years he'd spent reaching his position as Snake Spear Douluo, here was Lu Yunzhou, who'd only needed three years to reach Foundation Establishment and stand on equal footing with a Titled Douluo—no, even surpass him.
The sheer disparity gnawed at him. If he had the chance, he too wanted to become… a cultivator!
Snapping back to attention, Yu Yuanzhen and Chenxin attacked once again, determined not to give Lu Yunzhou a moment's respite.
In "Dragon Transformation" mode, Yu Yuanzhen's entire form shifted. Blue-purple scales spread across his body, adding to his size, and his gaze crackled with arcs of lightning.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Thunderous Might!"
"Sixth Soul Skill, True Dragon Protection!"
As he invoked these abilities, two inky-black ten-thousand-year soul rings rose at his feet, and countless arcs of thick, arm-sized lightning surrounded him, crackling intensely.
The power of these arcs was no trifling matter; for a typical Soul King or even a Soul Emperor, a single touch could lead to serious injury—or worse.
With his Seven Kill Domain active, Chenxin's attack, defense, and speed all surged.
But he knew it was still not enough. To match Lu Yunzhou, he would need more than just the Seven Kill Domain.
Therefore, as a precaution, the Sword Douluo unleashed a ten-thousand-year soul skill to back him up: "Fifth Soul Skill, Awe of the Four Directions!"
As the obsidian-colored soul ring activated, Chenxin's aura intensified.
Watching their formidable aura build, Lu Yunzhou merely smiled, his expression relaxed. As he took a step forward, he spoke softly:
"Even a hall filled with flowers cannot compare to a single sword casting frost over fourteen provinces.
Trumpets blare and chill the heavens, stirring waves on the mountain and sea…"
With those words, Lu Yunzhou fully activated his *Sword Technique of the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends* and summoned forth his *Thunder Summoning Technique* once more.
Before Yu Yuanzhen and Chenxin could respond to his poetic chant, the entire area transformed dramatically.
"Such a lovely scent! Is it flowers?" murmured Ye Lingling, taking a deep breath of the sudden fragrance in the air.
Nearby, Dugu Yan wrapped her arms around herself, shivering, and muttered, "It's supposed to be summer, so why… why does it suddenly feel so cold?"
Scanning the area in confusion, Xue Qinghe's heart pounded faster than ever.
*Something… feels wrong.*
Regaining focus, Xue Qinghe observed Lu Yunzhou's figure, now watching him intently.
Just as everyone was puzzled by the sudden changes in the environment, Lu Yunzhou broke the silence, chuckling. "Gentlemen, it's over."
As Lu Yunzhou's voice faded, his *Sword Technique of the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends*, renowned for "killing without a trace," severed Sword Douluo Chenxin's right arm in an instant.
At the same time, Yu Yuanzhen was dealt a crushing blow by Lu Yunzhou's combined Thunder Summoning Technique and "Palm Thunder", leaving him gravely wounded.
Everything happened so quickly that by the time the onlookers registered what had occurred, one of the two Peak Douluos was unconscious with a severed arm, and the other was grievously injured.
Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi shuddered. Just as he was about to question Lu Yunzhou's ruthless actions, a green-colored pill swiftly entered Chenxin's mouth.
Moments later, the vibrant energy of the green pill caused Chenxin's arm to regenerate before everyone's eyes.
Nearby, Yu Yuanzhen was also given a green pill by Lu Yunzhou, which, under its potent energy, restored his injuries at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Before long, the two Peak Douluos began to awaken, their bodies now almost fully healed.
"Damn!"
