134: Advanced Martial King

Each of those water pillars was stronger than the ones summoned by the wolf-shaped Thousand Zhang Water Beast that Lu Xingchen faced.

But Li Fei endured it with his Physical Body, showing no signs of strain.

Long Chen, on the other hand, was providing damage from behind.

He held a red longsword and continuously slashed at the Thousand Zhang Water Beast.

Battle Qi Sword Blades struck the Thousand Zhang Water Beast, splashing water everywhere.

The Thousand Zhang Water Beast's aura clearly became much weaker, but it was not yet at the point of collapse.

Lu Xingchen was greatly surprised.

Although Li Fei's Realm was only One-star Martial King, his defense was already close to a Five-Star Martial King's.

Long Chen was even more abnormal.

The sharpness of his Blade Edge and the speed of his sword strikes were the greatest Lu Xingchen had ever seen, even surpassing himself, who possessed the "Shadow Sword Art"!

Seeing Lu Xingchen approach, both of their faces lit up with joy.

Li Fei continued to entangle with the Thousand Zhang Water Beast, while Long Chen retreated.

His first reaction was the same as Jiang E's.

"Lu Xingchen, you've gotten stronger again!"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "Just luck. Let's get to the main point, can you two defeat this Thousand Zhang Water Beast?"

Long Chen said in a deep voice, "The Realm gap between us is too large; I'm lacking a bit of damage. Let me put it this way, do you see the water orb in the center of the Thousand Zhang Water Beast's body?"

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly.

"I see it."

"That's the source of the Thousand Zhang Water Beast's power. As long as we shatter the water orb, it will collapse. So, you use Sword Qi to reduce the Thousand Zhang Water Beast's defense, and I'll attack its water orb. That's the only way to kill it in one blow."

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly: "Okay. But I want to switch. You attack first, and I'll deliver the final blow."

The reason Lu Xingchen said this was simply because he didn't want to waste the Thousand Zhang Water Beast's experience points; he wanted to get the last hit.

Hearing this, Long Chen was stunned for a moment, then said, "Can you really do it?"

"Shattering the water orb is more difficult than breaking through the Thousand Zhang Water Beast's defense. If you can't succeed in one blow, it will become wary. The next attempt will be even harder."

Lu Xingchen nodded heavily: "Don't worry, leave it to me!"

"Alright, I'll trust you this once!"

The two flew in front of the Yao Beast.

"Crimson Flame Slash!"

Long Chen let out an angry roar, and a giant Battle Qi Sword Blade appeared above his head, then slashed down at the Thousand Zhang Water Beast.

Long Chen's strike was extremely powerful, almost splitting the Thousand Zhang Water Beast in two.

Lu Xingchen guessed that his "Crimson Flame Slash" was at least an earth rank mid grade Martial Skill!

If an ordinary Yao Beast suffered such a heavy blow, it would surely be dead beyond dead, but the Thousand Zhang Water Beast was a creature condensed from lake water and Spiritual Qi, so it felt no pain.

The water orb in the center of its body glowed blue, frantically absorbing Spiritual Qi from the lake, and its body rapidly healed.

While it was healing, Lu Xingchen rode Xiao You to the center of the Thousand Zhang Water Beast's body, arriving in front of the water orb.

Jiang E shouted loudly, "Lu Xingchen, be careful!"

She was a little worried. If the Thousand Zhang Water Beast finished healing and Lu Xingchen failed to shatter the water orb, he would be trapped inside the Thousand Zhang Water Beast's body.

Then his life or death would truly be uncertain.

Lu Xingchen didn't hesitate and unleashed "Thousand Jin Slash."

A white Battle Qi Sword Blade slashed down at the water orb.

If Lu Xingchen had used the "Heaven Swallowing Art," he would surely have destroyed the water orb.

But he didn't want to expose this trump card in front of Long Chen and Li Fei.

His Realm was only Ten-star Martial Spirit, and despite the boost from the Purple Crystal Flame, the Realm gap was too large. For a moment, he couldn't shatter the water orb.

A tiny crack appeared on the water orb, but it was far from shattering.

The Thousand Zhang Water Beast let out a roar, and its attacks on Li Fei became even more fierce.

At the same time, the blue light on the water orb brightened significantly, and its body's recovery speed rapidly increased.

Long Chen, who was outside, felt his heart sink.

His worst fear had still come true.

He couldn't help but feel some resentment and doubt towards Lu Xingchen in his heart.

I warned you earlier that shattering the water orb is very difficult.

If you don't have the skill, don't take on the task!

But he still suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and shouted loudly, "Lu Xingchen, come out quickly, we'll think of another way!"

Lu Xingchen frowned.

This Thousand Zhang Water Beast was truly terrifyingly tough!

But no matter, his trump cards hadn't even started to be used yet!

Lu Xingchen activated "Jade Shatter" and once again condensed "Thousand Jin Slash."

Half of the Battle Qi in his body instantly disappeared, in exchange for a five-fold increase in attack power.

A white Battle Qi Sword Blade appeared again, this time, the white light was dazzlingly bright.

The white Blade Edge slashed down at the water orb, directly splitting it in two.

The Thousand Zhang Water Beast let out a wail, the Spiritual Qi on its body rapidly disappeared, and its body immediately collapsed, turning into clumps of lake water and falling into the lake.

Congratulations, host, for killing a fifth tier five-star Water Beast! You have gained 50,000 experience points and 50,000 exchange points!

Congratulations, host, for advancing to One-star Martial King! You have gained 41 talent points!

Lu Xingchen was overjoyed.

Martial King! He was finally a Martial King!

After so many years of diligent Cultivation, he was finally rewarded.

Amidst his excitement, he opened his attribute panel again.

Good, he was one step closer to Yun Li.

Seeing the Thousand Zhang Water Beast turn into scattered water, Long Chen and Li Fei were both a little surprised.

Strange, just now Lu Xingchen was struggling within the Yao Beast's body, and now it suddenly broke through its defense.

What was going on?

His previous strike had power comparable to a Five-Star Martial King!

For a moment, Long Chen and Li Fei were both incredibly shocked.

The two flew to Lu Xingchen's side.

Long Chen smiled and said, "Junior Brother Lu, the power of your sword just now was far beyond my Crimson Flame Slash. The position of first on the Earth Rank should be yours."

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "Senior Brother Long Chen, you flatter me. Your swordsmanship is the strongest I have ever seen. I still need to learn a lot from you in the future. As for the ranking, there's no need to take it so seriously, because we are already Inner Sect Disciples."

Hearing this, Long Chen's face broke into a brilliant smile.

"That's right, we are Inner Sect Disciples!"

Li Fei also patted Lu Xingchen's shoulder and laughed, "Junior Brother Lu, you're amazing! The power of your strike was truly too strong. I want to spar with you and see if your full-power strike can break through my Vajra Barrier."

Hearing this, Lu Xingchen was a little startled.

This Li Fei was truly a Martial fanatic; he wanted to test this too!
