39: Chapter 39 Everyone's showing off, whether human or ghost, except for the fat guy who's getting beaten up!
"Boom!"
The various Spell attacks slammed hard into Qian Duoduo.
Fire flashed, energy surged, and explosions echoed throughout the forest.
The fatty cowered within his defenses, watching his Golden Armor Talisman flicker repeatedly in terror.
He was so scared he activated his full-body armor defense!
"Hum!"
As the defensive barrier opened, the shockwaves from the Spiritual Qi actually sent him flying!
When Ding Xiuqi and the others saw this, they were furious!
"Damn! Is this fatty so brave? How dare he provoke us like this?"
"Screw that! Relying on the resources of Alchemy Peak, this good-for-nothing who just eats and waits for death dares to be so arrogant!"
"I can't take it anymore! I'm going to beat this fatty to death!"
"Damn it! This fatty doesn't put us in his eyes at all! Anyway, Chen Yan can't run; let's take this dead fatty down first!"
"That's right! If he had just huddled down there, fine, but he actually flew up? Isn't he just deliberately trying to disgust us?"
"Brothers, hit him! There are plenty of treasures on this fatty too!"
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Instantly, they formed hand seals, Spiritual Qi flickered on their bodies, and more Spells and Sword Qi flew straight at the fatty!
This time, Qian Duoduo's face turned green!
On the high platform of the Sect plaza, a woman with a charming and graceful demeanor looked at the scene in the Mirror Flower Water Moon with a face full of worry.
Her name was Xu Xiang, Qian Duoduo's mother.
Xu Xiang nervously held her husband's hand and said worriedly, "Husband, does it really have to be this way? Duoduo is still just a child!"
Qian Xingzhou patted his wife's hand comfortingly, his face solemn, but he didn't speak.
Instead, Lu Lingyun glanced at the woman with lowered brows and said unhappily, "A doting mother spoils her son!"
Xu Xiang's expression turned bitter, and she said aggrievedly, "Mother, I just don't want to see Duoduo get hurt."
Lu Lingyun slammed the table and said angrily, "He gets hurt? How much more hurt could he possibly get?"
She pointed at the scene in the Mirror Flower Water Moon, bursting with anger: "Look at him, he's wrapped up tightly from head to toe by you; you tell me how he could get hurt?"
"It's just a Sect Small Competition, a match between Foundation Establishment Disciples, and look at how many Golden Armor Talismans you've stuffed him with?"
"Duoduo hasn't made any progress for so many years; it's all because you've spoiled him!"
"I..." Xu Xiang was choked by the scolding and could only grunt: "I just feel sorry for him..."
"Duoduo is your own grandson, why are you more concerned about that foster grandson instead!"
"There should be a distinction between close and distant relations!"
Lu Lingyun looked at her daughter-in-law's foolishness and couldn't help but scold, "Idiot!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiang's face turned pale, and she looked miserably at her husband.
Qian Xingzhou also looked hopeless; this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship was really hard to handle!
He could only pull Xu Xiang and comfort her, "Wife, don't worry, this is also Duoduo's own choice!"
In the Secret Realm.
"Ouch! It hurts so much!"
"Stop hitting! Stop hitting! I'm Qian Duoduo, damn it! Go hit Chen Yan!"
"I can't take it, I can't take it! You guys are shaking me until I'm dizzy!"
In the air, Qian Duoduo, wearing a defensive barrier, was being batted around by the crowd like a ball.
Various attacks landed on his defense, making "ding-ding-dang-dang" sounds.
Truly, everyone and their mother was showing off, except for the fatty who was getting beaten up!
Fortunately, the Golden Armor Talisman was powerful enough, and the armor Magic Treasure on him was sturdy enough.
Although the defensive barrier flickered on and off, it remained firm.
"Chen Yan! No, Brother Yan! Brother Yan, save me!"
"I can't hold on anymore!"
Hearing the fatty's cry for help, Chen Yan shouted, "Fatty, catch!"
Seeing his wrist flick as he shot a white Medicinal Pill toward Qian Duoduo, everyone thought it was some kind of emergency Medicinal Pill.
They immediately sneered, "Thinking of saving someone only now? Too late!"
"Knock down that Medicinal Pill! Don't let Qian Duoduo get it!"
"Trifling skill! Break for me!"
A dozen people immediately turned their long swords, and streaks of Sword Qi shot out, heading straight for that white Medicinal Pill!
Qian Duoduo's face turned ghastly pale, and he exclaimed, "My Medicinal Pill!"
But even though he shouted, he turned his back to the direction of the Medicinal Pill, closed his eyes tightly, and even covered his eyes with his hands for fear that they wouldn't be shielded enough!
On the Sect plaza!
"Oh damn! This move again!"
"Protect our eyes!"
"..."
"Bang!"
A dozen Sword Qi streaks hit the Medicinal Pill directly.
Then.
It became day!
Blinding white light exploded instantly in the forest!
The fifty-plus Disciples who were surrounding them, just when they were delighted to have intercepted the Medicinal Pill, their eyes were flashed by this white light!
Instantly!
Everyone's tears streamed down, and they wailed in pain on the ground.
"Ah!!!"
"My eyes!"
"What is this thing? I can't see! I can't see!"
"This isn't a Medicinal Pill, this is a hidden weapon!"
"Damn Chen Yan! You're not human!"
Screams followed one after another.
Everyone who looked directly at the flash pill now saw only a vast whiteness before their eyes and couldn't see anything.
When the white light faded slightly.
In the arena, only two figures remained standing.
Chen Yan and Qian Duoduo!
"Harvest time!"
Chen Yan chuckled, raised his hand, and threw out the brick!
Watching the brick leap above everyone's heads, he picked up his green steel sword and thrust it out!
"Mystic Ice Water-Dividing Sword Art β Snow Condenses and Returns to the River!"
The long sword pointed, Spiritual Qi gathered at the tip, and then erupted.
A point of cold light arrived first, followed by snow falling back to the river!
The Sword Qi instantly scattered, turning into snow filling the sky, enveloping all these people!
The mystic ice sword tassel in his body trembled slightly, and a streak of Mystic Ice Sword Intent flashed across the tip of the sword.
And so.
The snow fell, and the ice froze!
The forest in the Secret Realm, which was scorching in June, turned into the dead of winter after this sword strike from Chen Yan!
The hands and feet of the fifty-plus people were all frozen.
They lost their ability to act!
Qian Duoduo had just taken out a Flying Sword Spiritual Artifact, and seeing this scene, his jaw dropped!
"Damn! Damn, damn, damn!"
"Brother Yan, how did you do that?"
"Is this the Mystic Ice Water-Dividing Sword Art? The famous sword art of Sword Venerable Shuanghua? Is it this awesome?"
"Can I learn it? Brother Yan! Teach me, teach me!"
The fatty, like a curious baby seeing a toy, cheered and jumped around Chen Yan, his eyes full of longing.
But then he saw Chen Yan's legs go soft, leaning on his long sword, panting heavily.
Qian Duoduo was stunned and quickly asked with concern: "What? Brother Yan, what's wrong?"
Chen Yan waved his hand with difficulty, equally puzzled in his heart.
"Damn, this ultimate move is really cool! But it consumes too much mana, right?"
"After this one sword strike, the spiritual power in my body is actually bottoming out?"
"That shouldn't be right? Regardless, I was tempered by the Sword Heart Tempering Method; my own spiritual power should be more than ten times that of others in the same Realm!"
On the high platform.
Leng Qingshuang looked at the "Snow Condenses and Returns to the River" that Chen Yan had unleashed, and the expression on her cold face paused.
This Rebellious Disciple actually awakened both the crimson flame sword tassel and the mystic ice sword tassel?
Was that flash of Sword Intent just now the Mystic Ice Sword Intent?
But the Rebellious Disciple is also dull-witted!
Combining sword moves with Sword Intent increases the power exponentially, so naturally, the consumption also increases exponentially!
Before she could feel gratified for Chen Yan, Chen Yan's rebellious inner voice came through again.
"But this move can actually make the sword follow the heart; wherever I want to freeze, it freezes. This is really wonderful~!"
"If there's a chance, I want to try freezing Revered Master's hands and feet, and then watch her look pitiful, half-resisting and half-yielding as she begs me for mercy~"
"Hehe~ Hehehe~ This is simply the top-tier 'Yes, mmm' big scene~"
"Pfft!"
Leng Qingshuang's pretty face sank, and she almost couldn't catch her breath!
Rebellious Disciple!
He actually wants to freeze this Seat? And wants this Seat to beg him for mercy?
What half-resisting and half-yielding, what 'Yes, mmm'?
If it weren't for the fact that they were still in the Small Competition, she would have rushed into the Secret Realm immediately to purge the Sect!
[Detected host's Rebellious Disciple behavior, rebellious value + 1666!]
In the Secret Realm.
After eating a few qi condensing pills, Chen Yan finally recovered.
He stood up straight and was just about to call for Fatty Qian to clean up the battlefield.
"Swish!"
A sword light flashed through the shade of the forest, heading straight for Chen Yan's back!
