773: Chapter 774 Just how many trump cards are we hiding?

At the same time.

Buzz—!

A sword light arrived first despite starting later, as if falling from the Nine Heavens, or perhaps emerging from a crack in time. It struck with unerring precision, slashing horizontally across the Little Sword Emperor's sharp sword light!

The Little Sword Emperor's indestructible sword light was actually severed and shattered by this sudden green sword light!

The dissipating Sword Qi shot out in all directions like headless flies, carving countless deep gashes into the ground.

Where the sword light shattered, a figure in a green robe stood elegantly with a sword in front of Ji Qingyi, firmly protecting her behind him.

Li Xuanfeng's sleeves fluttered as the noble Sword Qi around him surged into the sky, standing like an insurmountable monument of the Sword Dao.

He slowly raised his eyes and looked calmly at the Little Sword Emperor, Ling Guzhou, whose expression had drastically shifted for the first time. With a flick of his wrist, his long sword pointed diagonally as his voice clearly rang out across the field:

"Your opponent..."

"...is me."

"Boom—!"

These words were like a spark thrown into boiling oil, instantly igniting the nearly frozen air above and below the cliff.

"Li Xuanfeng?!"

"The green-robed Sword Cultivator, Li Xuanfeng! He... he actually..."

"What did he just say? 'Your opponent is me'? He's talking to Ling Guzhou? He's protecting Ji Qingyi, the Battle Asura, and the others?!"

Fairy Moon Ji Qingyi and the green-robed Sword Cultivator Li Xuanfeng—these two, no matter where they were in the Ancient Plains, were peerless Prodigies of the highest tier, capable of intimidating entire regions.

Now, they stood side by side, together blocking the way in front of Battle Asura!

"You..."

The Little Sword Emperor, Ling Guzhou, stared fixedly at Li Xuanfeng, who stood in his way. The long sword in his arms buzzed and trembled—not from fear, but from the excitement and fury of encountering a true rival and having his sword heart thoroughly ignited.

Although his previous strike wasn't at full power, it was certainly not something an ordinary Immortal King could block, let alone sever so precisely!

This Li Xuanfeng's understanding of the Sword Dao and his grasp of timing were unfathomable!

"Good, good, good!" Ling Guzhou laughed instead of getting angry, though his smile was bone-chillingly cold, and the Battle Intent in his eyes burned like a tangible flame.

"Li Xuanfeng, even you have come to interfere. I've long wanted to fight you! It seems today is the time!"

"If you want to fight, then let's fight."

Li Xuanfeng's tone remained calm. The green long sword in his hand pointed diagonally at the ground, yet the noble Sword Qi surged toward the heavens.

It collided violently with Ling Guzhou's sharp Sword Intent in mid-air, producing silent explosions that tore the air between them to shreds.

"Heh, interesting." Gu Shitian's indifferent voice rang out. His gaze was like lightning, sweeping over Li Xuanfeng before landing on Ji Qingyi.

"One Ji Qingyi wasn't enough, and now another Li Xuanfeng..."

He paused, a golden light flashing in his divine pupils as he looked at Xiao Ruobai, who was being protected in the rear and taking the time to adjust his breathing. His voice suddenly turned harsh:

"But so what?! Below the Immortal Sovereign realm, all are but ants! Today, let this Divine Son see how long you can protect them!"

Before his voice finished echoing, he took a sudden step forward. His Glazed Divine Body radiated ten thousand beams of golden light as surging immortal power gathered at his fist.

It was a simple punch, devoid of any fancy Divine Abilities, yet it carried a pure, overbearing, and supreme power that crushed everything.

The golden fist print expanded rapidly against the wind, instantly transforming into a towering mountain that obscured the light. With a heavy sound of breaking wind, it smashed down toward Xiao Ruobai and his group!

This punch possessed the power of an Immortal Sovereign and was unstoppable!

The breath of every Prodigy present hitched. Even Ji Qingyi's eyes narrowed slightly as she prepared to step forward and take the blow head-on.

"A group fight? I've never been afraid of anyone!"

A coarse and violent laugh rang out like a thunderclap, shattering the heavy silence!

The pile of rubble on the partially collapsed cliffside suddenly exploded, sending stones flying.

A figure as hulking as a mountain, wreathed in dark golden lightning, brutally smashed through the rock layers and stepped out.

Shi Jingxian's muscles were bulging, his body like a mountain. His blood energy was blazing hot, and his boundless vitality surged into the sky—brutal, wild, and overbearing!

He held high a ferocious spiked club as large as a door panel. The veins on his arms bulged. He didn't dodge, didn't evade, and used no clever tricks.

Facing the mountain-like fist print that was crushing down, he swung his club upward with savage force!

"Clang—!!!"

A world-shaking boom echoed in all directions!

It was as if two stars had collided in mid-air. A blinding flash of energy instantly swallowed half of the cliff.

A visible circular shockwave swept across the land. The hard rock layers rose and fell like waves, and stones danced wildly in the sky.

Amidst the roaring tremors, that golden Immortal Sovereign fist print, which was enough to crush everything, was actually knocked off course by this incredibly brutal strike!

The fist print shifted upward by several feet, whistling past the heads of Xiao Ruobai and the others before smashing violently into the cliff wall behind them.

With a thunderous explosion, the entire cliffside directly crumbled and collapsed, turning into golden dust that filled the air!

Meanwhile, Shi Jingxian's massive body retreated repeatedly under the terrifying recoil.

Thud, thud, thud—

His heavy footsteps slammed into the ground, each step leaving a deep crater.

The webbing between his thumb and index finger had split, blood trickling down his arm. A streak of crimson blood leaked from the corner of his mouth, and the spiked club in his hand vibrated violently, humming incessantly.

But even though he had suffered internal injuries from the recoil, he still stood tall, baring his blood-stained teeth. Facing Gu Shitian, whose expression was growing increasingly dark, he laughed wildly:

"Hahaha! The fist of an Immortal Sovereign is only so-so! Come again!"

At this moment, all the Prodigies on the cliff were dumbfounded, staring blankly at that hulking, ferocious figure, waves of shock surging in their hearts.

Another one?

These two words appeared almost simultaneously in the minds of every spectating Prodigy.

Previously, when Ji Qingyi suddenly appeared and used her Lunar Immortal Body to block the lethal strike, it had already overturned everyone's perceptions. Everyone thought she was this team's greatest trump card and the only variable.

But who could have expected the situation to reverse again and again?

In an instant, first, the green-robed Li Xuanfeng intercepted from mid-air, severing the Little Sword Emperor's killing sword light with a single strike.

Then, Shi Jingxian burst out from the ground, brutal and fearless, head-on clashing with the Divine Son's heavy punch.

One was cold and ethereal, wielding the Taiyin Great Dao, single-handedly resisting an Immortal Sovereign's assassination.

One was elegant in green robes, well-versed in the supreme Sword Dao, suppressing the Prodigies of the Sword Rankings at the same level.

One was brutal and fierce, his Physical Body capable of shattering mountains, using a mortal frame to face the Immortal Sovereign's might head-on.

Three distinct yet equally top-tier terrifying auras took firm root in front of Xiao Ruobai's group, like three insurmountable barriers standing before all the Prodigies.

At the back of the crowd, Wang Zhan's entire body was stiff. A bone-chilling coldness crept up his spine, and his hand gripping the long spear tightened until his knuckles turned white.

The Yaochi Holy Master, Li Xuanfeng, and Shi Jingxian—each possessed peerless combat power. Just what kind of monsters were surrounding the Battle Asura?!

He had thought he understood the Battle Asura and Sword White Robe's group well enough, but now he suddenly realized that what he had seen was only the tip of the iceberg.

Beside him, Dong Li was completely stunned.

Its fox eyes were wide and round, its fur subconsciously bristling. Its small body froze in place as it stared blankly at Ji Qingyi, then turned its head in confusion toward the calm Xiao Ruobai, its face full of bewilderment and shock.

It quietly reached out a paw and tightly grabbed Wang Zhan's sleeve. Its voice through transmission carried an uncontrollable tremble, filled with confusion:

"Old Wang, you... no, just how many trump cards are our group still hiding?"
