30: Chapter 30: The Three Rings Shock the Entire Audience, Sword Profound Exposed

Heaven Dou Great Spirit Arena.

"Jian Xuan!"

"Jian Xuan!"

...

"Jian Xuan!"

On the spectator stand of the Life-and-Death Zone, the audience burst into waves of cheers.

Relying on his immense strength and air of mystery, Ji Xuan had long since become the most eye-catching existence in this Soul Fighting Arena.

Inside a VIP box with an excellent view.

"Uncle Sword, do you think that Ji Xuan will use his Spirit today?"

Ning Fengzhi sat upright on the sofa, his gaze fixed on the figure in white on the Soul Fighting Arena.

"It's hard to say; his opponent today is, after all, a Rank 55 Spirit King."

Chen Xin stood behind Ning Fengzhi, shaking his head slightly.

"With the cultivation of a Spirit Elder, he dares to challenge a Spirit King..." Ning Fengzhi murmured softly. "I wonder which faction he comes from."

Ever since the name Jian Xuan became famous in the Soul Fighting Arena, the intelligence network of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had begun investigating in secret.

However, Jian Xuan's movements were mysterious; every time he left the Soul Fighting Arena, he would vanish without a trace.

To this day... he still had not discovered Jian Xuan's identity.

Now that Bone Douluo's injuries had basically healed, he had brought Sword Douluo to watch the match in person.

...

On Soul Fighting Arena No. 1.

A new round of matches was about to begin.

Ji Xuan was dressed in white, his black hair simply tied behind his head.

A mask covered his face, revealing only a pair of calm eyes.

Just by standing there, he naturally exuded an ethereal temperament.

His opponent was a burly middle-aged man with knotted muscles and an imposing Aura.

The man's Spirit was a Violent Giant Bear, a high-level Spirit that combined both offense and defense.

"Will both sides please prepare."

The host's voice echoed throughout the arena through a sound-amplifying spirit tool.

"Spirit Possession!"

The Spirit King man let out a sharp shout, his figure suddenly swelling as five spirit rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, purple—circled beneath his feet.

"Kid, I heard you never use your Spirit?" The man sneered. "Today, I'll let you know the price of being arrogant!"

Ji Xuan ignored him, simply raising his hand and making a grasping motion in the air.

In an instant, golden lightning surged around him, crackling loudly.

A long sword condensed from pure thunder slowly took shape in his hand.

Arcs of electricity flowed across the blade, the golden light dazzling.

Facing a Rank 55 Spirit King, Ji Xuan did not dare to be too arrogant.

The sword condensed from lightning elements had far greater destructive power than the wind sword.

Seeing this, the crowd on the stands began to discuss:

"He can actually control both wind and thunder elements at the same time?"

"His opponent is a Spirit King, is he still not planning to use his Spirit?"

...

In the VIP box.

Ning Fengzhi frowned slightly: "Uncle Sword, can you tell how he does that?"

"I don't know..."

Chen Xin's gaze locked onto the sword in Ji Xuan's hand, shaking his head slowly with a hint of disbelief:

"This sword is condensed into substance, yet it is not formed by Soul Power."

"It seems to be... a form of control over the power of heaven and earth."

Just now, he had been observing the entire process, yet he had not detected any fluctuation of Soul Power.

"The power of heaven and earth..."

Ning Fengzhi murmured softly, saying no more as his gaze returned to the battlefield below.

...

"The match begins!"

The moment the host's voice fell, the Spirit King man unhesitatingly released his second Spirit Ability:

"Second Spirit Ability, Violent Bear Armor."

Dark yellow energy armor immediately covered his entire body, causing his defensive power to surge.

He knew that Ji Xuan's movement technique was strange, so he released a defensive Spirit Ability immediately.

"First Spirit Ability, Giant Bear Strength."

Following that, his first spirit ring lit up, his muscles swelled, and he stomped his feet, charging fiercely toward Ji Xuan.

Wind elements swirled around Ji Xuan, his white clothes fluttering with the wind, and his speed suddenly increased.

Seeing the Spirit King's attack approaching, he flicked his wrist, the thunder sword slicing through the air and meeting the attack head-on with golden electric light.

"Clang! Zzz—!"

The blade collided with the energy armor, sparks flying, but it only left a charred sword mark on the Spirit King's arm.

"Hehe, kid, do you think I'm as weak as them?"

The Spirit King man sneered, his third spirit ring suddenly lighting up:

"Third Spirit Ability, Earth-Rending Bear Claw."

The Spirit King man's hands turned into sharp claws, and he slammed a claw down toward Ji Xuan.

"Clang!"

Ji Xuan raised his sword to block, and a massive force came through. The thunder sword trembled violently, his hand went numb, and the sword in his hand nearly flew out of his grip.

He used the momentum to retreat backward, dissipating some of the force.

Without relying on his Spirit, fighting against a high-level Spirit King was still too strenuous.

"Fourth Spirit Ability, Rage of the Berserker!"

The Spirit King man rose up in a fury, his fourth spirit ring lighting up.

Blood energy surged around him, his muscles expanded once more, and his speed and strength climbed sharply!

His eyes were blood-red, and he had clearly lost his reason.

The Spirit King man let out a roar, turned into an afterimage, and pounced at Ji Xuan again.

Seeing this, Ji Xuan held the thunder sword horizontally in front of him.

"Boom—!"

This collision was far greater than before, and the violent power couldn't help but make Ji Xuan's entire arm go numb.

The long sword condensed from thunder shattered in response, dissipating into lightning.

Ji Xuan let out a muffled groan, his figure retreating rapidly by using the force, landing slightly unsteadily ten meters away, his right hand trembling slightly.

The entire arena suddenly erupted in exclamations.

The thunder sword had shattered!

This was the first time since Jian Xuan's debut that his weapon had been defeated in a direct confrontation!

The irrational Spirit King man pounced again.

However, although the berserk state increased his strength, it also left him full of openings.

Ji Xuan no longer held back, making a grasping motion with his right hand, and a golden long sword condensed in his hand, with strange patterns vaguely flowing across the blade.

At the same time, three spirit rings appeared beneath his feet.

Purple! Purple! Black!

This configuration of spirit rings, which defied common sense, caused the entire Great Spirit Arena to fall into a dead silence.

"Third Spirit Ability, Armor-Piercing Blade."

Ji Xuan's voice was cold as he held the Sword of Order vertically in front of him.

"Sword Intent of Wind and Thunder."

The power of wind and thunder surged again, but this time they were not scattered elements; they were perfectly fused and condensed onto the blade.

The irrational Spirit King remained completely unaware of this, still charging forward.

The next moment, Ji Xuan moved.

Everyone just felt a blur before their eyes.

"Pfft—!"

The Spirit King man's armor was pierced through like thin paper.

His forward momentum suddenly froze, and his violent Aura came to an abrupt halt.

He lowered his head in disbelief, looking at the long sword that had pierced his chest. The crimson red in his eyes gradually faded, leaving only shock.

"Ugh..."

He collapsed to the ground with a thud, and there was no more sound.

The entire process took only a few breaths.

"The... the winner is, Jian Xuan!"

A moment later, after the referee tremblingly announced the result.

The audience in the arena was finally awakened, and a deafening uproar broke out:

"Did... did you see that?!"

"Those spirit rings! Purple! Purple! Black! How is this possible!"

"Who on earth is he?!"

Inside the VIP box, Ning Fengzhi stood up abruptly.

The gentle refinement on his face was replaced by extreme shock for the first time.

He stared fixedly at that golden long sword, as well as those shocking spirit rings.

A piece of top-secret intelligence transmitted from an informant inside the Spirit Hall instantly surfaced in his mind.

"It's him!"

"That Ji Xuan from the Spirit Hall!"

Sharp light also erupted in Chen Xin's eyes, and he murmured in disbelief: "Peak Sword Intent!"
