104: Chapter 104 is really good at hiding things!

The Second Day

"Zichen Peak, Lin Ming wins!"

As the competition progressed, the strength of the opponents Lin Ming encountered was also becoming increasingly powerful.

Lin Ming's sword slashed through all obstacles before him; in this single strike, his Triple Sword Intent was fully displayed.

"Triple Sword Intent... it seems the rumors weren't false after all."

Inside the Canghai Sword Pavilion, that aloof woman spoke as she watched the Triple Sword Intent Lin Ming displayed.

"Triple Sword Intent? We also have several Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters in the Spirit Platform Realm who have mastered it."

The other woman spoke dismissively.

Their Canghai Sword Pavilion did indeed have a few who had mastered Triple Sword Intent while in the Spirit Platform Realm.

"And what about you?"

The aloof woman glanced at the woman behind her.

"I'm slightly lacking."

The woman replied with a hint of embarrassment.

She truly hadn't comprehended Triple Sword Intent during the Spirit Platform Realm; even now, she hadn't reached it, remaining stuck at Second-Layer Sword Intent.

"Senior Brother, the opponents we're meeting are getting stronger and stronger."

Yu Yaoqin said to Lin Ming.

Although Lin Ming still defeated his opponent with a single sword strike, the fact that he had to use Triple Sword Intent showed that his opponents' strength was indeed rising.

"Nonsense."

Lin Ming glanced at Yu Yaoqin and spoke.

Disciples who can continuously advance are not weak. Moreover, Lin Ming could currently only show strength at the Spirit Platform Realm, so he had to reveal more in other aspects.

The further the fights went, Triple Sword Intent alone might not be enough; he might need to reveal even more things.

This was unavoidable. If he were in some other small Sect, never mind Triple Sword Intent, even Second-Layer or First-Layer Sword Intent would allow one to sweep through the Spirit Platform Realm.

But this was Yuanxu Mountain, one of the top Sects in the Qingxuan Realm. Wanting to sweep the Spirit Platform Realm relying solely on Triple Sword Intent was essentially a very difficult task.

"Luo Lingfeng of Shangyang Peak versus Ding Xuan of Azure Severance Peak!"

The red-haired Luo Lingfeng stepped onto the stage.

His shock of red hair also caused quite a bit of discussion.

After all, Luo Lingfeng's habit of tinkering with his hair color had earned him a certain level of fame within the Sect.

In the Elders' seating area, a majestic-looking old man was currently looking at Luo Lingfeng with an unkind expression.

This person was none other than Luo Lingfeng's Revered Master, an Elder of Shangyang Peak, Immortal Master Hongshan.

"Old Man Hong, this Disciple of yours is getting more and more interesting."

Nearby, another Elder spoke to him with a slightly teasing tone.

Master Hong Shan ignored him, merely watching his own Disciple.

"Ding Xuan... Junior Brother Luo's opponent this time is quite strong."

Yu Yaoqin said, looking at Luo Lingfeng's opponent.

Ding Xuan of Azure Severance Peak had reached the Lingtai Eighth Layer, while Luo Lingfeng's strength was only at the Spirit Platform Fourth Heaven; it was likely he would struggle against such an opponent.

"We'll only know after they fight."

Lin Ming said.

This match would reveal whether Luo Lingfeng intended to continue hiding his strength.

The clash on the stage began.

Ding Xuan struck first, the long spear in his hand falling like a torrential rain.

Luo Lingfeng initially took a defensive stance, retreating under the opponent's offensive.

It seemed as though he had no chance to counterattack at all.

However, as time passed, Ding Xuan also noticed a problem.

That was, he was consistently unable to defeat Luo Lingfeng. His attacks were all blocked, yet he couldn't take him down.

This made him increasingly aware that something was amiss.

"Chaotic Void!"

A spear technique erupted from his spear, striking out in a chaotic flurry.

Boom...

This spear strike was blocked head-on.

Blocked directly by Luo Lingfeng, a intense gale stood before him, forming a powerful wall of wind that made it impossible for the spear to advance an inch further.

Furthermore, the aura on Luo Lingfeng's body changed, steadily climbing until it stopped at the Lingtai Eighth Layer.

"This is?"

Below the stage, Yu Yaoqin also sensed the aura on Luo Lingfeng; it was definitely power beyond the Spirit Platform Fourth Heaven.

"Lingtai Eighth Layer. This Junior Brother has hidden quite a bit of his strength."

A Disciple in the Spirit Treasury Realm saw through Luo Lingfeng's strength and remarked.

"Lingtai Eighth Layer... this guy has been hiding his strength all along, hasn't he?"

Yu Yaoqin finally realized what was happening as she looked at Luo Lingfeng.

"The outcome of this match is hard to say now."

Lin Ming said.

That kid Luo Lingfeng had finally stopped hiding his strength and let it erupt during this exchange.

Moving with the wind.

Luo Lingfeng used the wind as his guide, making his movements faster and faster.

He constantly dodged the spear in Ding Xuan's hands while simultaneously looking for an opportunity to attack.

"Do you only know how to hide?"

Facing the constantly dodging Luo Lingfeng, Ding Xuan was becoming a bit impatient.

"Dodging is also a way of fighting."

Luo Lingfeng said unhurriedly.

"I hope you can keep dodging."

Ding Xuan said coldly.

A horizontal sweep of the spear—

The spear thrust out like a dragon!

A burst of Spear Intent instantly erupted, tearing apart all the fierce winds in front of him.

Facing this sudden burst of Spear Intent, Luo Lingfeng appeared somewhat caught off guard.

Fortunately, he reacted at the last moment, responding in time by quickly retreating and narrowly dodging the spear's attack.

"Spear Intent."

Feeling this Spear Intent, Luo Lingfeng's expression gradually became solemn.

"It's time to end this."

Ding Xuan said in a deep voice.

He didn't plan on playing around with Luo Lingfeng any longer; he wanted to end this encounter as quickly as possible.

"It indeed is time to end it."

Luo Lingfeng smiled instead.

A gentle breeze brushed past, fluttering his bright red hair.

Green wind gathered, congregating in front of him.

At this moment, Ding Xuan sensed a hint of danger. He struck first towards Luo Lingfeng, the Spear Intent in his hand erupting completely at this instant.

The spear and the green wind collided, impacting against each other.

Luo Lingfeng faced it with a calm expression.

Hiss...

Suddenly, the green wind surged with power, and the Spear Intent was shredded beneath the gale.

"Not good!"

Ding Xuan clearly hadn't expected his Spear Intent to be torn apart by this green wind.

By the time he wanted to make his next move, it was already too late.

The green wind struck him, blowing him directly off the high stage and onto the ground.

"Shangyang Peak, Luo Lingfeng, wins."

"Old Man Hong, you've certainly found yourself a good Disciple."

A trace of surprise appeared on Han De's face as he spoke to Master Hong Shan.

"Just a disobedient Disciple, that's all."

A flicker of gratification that was hard to detect passed over Master Hong Shan's face. Immediately after, he saw Luo Lingfeng's shock of red hair, and that unkind look reappeared on his face.

"Junior Brother Luo, you certainly hid your strength deep."

Yu Yaoqin said.

Lingtai Eighth Layer—he had hidden a full four minor Realms. He really can hide.

Little did she know, her Stinky Senior Brother was even better at hiding.
