40: Enlightenment Stone Tablet
Lu Xingchen said indifferently, "Defeating you is still not a big problem."
Qin Hao said in a deep voice, "Jiang Qing, Sun Wen, come help me. Take this guy down as quickly as possible."
Lin Jing also stood beside Lu Xingchen.
"You scumbags from the Five Elements Sect, have you forgotten about me, Lin Jing?"
Lin Jing activated her battle Qi and stood beside Lu Xingchen.
Qin Hao was slightly startled.
"Lin Jing? You actually advanced to Great Martial Master Realm too?"
Lin Jing snorted coldly, "To annihilate the Five Elements Sect, I will only grow stronger!"
"Sun Wen, you go kill Lin Jing first. Lu Xingchen will be handled by Jiang Qing and me."
"Understood!"
The five of them started fighting fiercely in the center of the Plaza.
Although Qin Hao was two minor Realms higher than Lu Xingchen, Lu Xingchen possessed multiple talents, especially "Rampage" and "Devour," which greatly increased his combat power.
For a time, the three of them were evenly matched.
On the other side, Lin Jing, relying on her desperate fighting style, completely suppressed Sun Wen.
Soon, wounds appeared on both of them, but the number of Lin Jing's wounds was far less than Sun Wen's.
The more Qin Hao fought, the more alarmed he became.
Damn it, this Lu Xingchen is too strong, isn't he?
"Jiang Qing, use that move!" Qin Hao shouted loudly.
"Okay!"
The two of them retreated a few steps, then clasped their hands together.
A green tree formed by battle Qi appeared in front of Jiang Qing, and then Qin Hao injected his fire-attribute battle Qi into it.
The battle Qi tree began to burn fiercely, forming a giant fireball.
Lu Xingchen frowned.
From the looks of it, Jiang Qing's battle Qi was wood-attribute, and Qin Hao's battle Qi was fire-attribute. The two complemented each other, capable of unleashing powerful might.
As expected of the Saint of the Five Elements Sect, to actually be able to master such a combined attack method!
Lu Xingchen dared not be careless and immediately used "Azure Dragon Slash" while simultaneously activating "Jade Shatter."
Half of his battle Qi immediately disappeared, in exchange for five times the attack power.
The two of them simultaneously pushed their hands forward, and the giant fireball shot towards Lu Xingchen.
Lu Xingchen also slashed down with his blade, and an Azure Dragon flew towards the two of them.
The fireball was enormous, easily the size of a person.
While the Azure Dragon was only the size of an arm.
But who said that bigger always wins?
The two streams of battle Qi were in a stalemate in the air for a moment, and then the Azure Dragon fiercely pierced through the fireball, flying towards Qin Hao and Jiang Qing.
In a critical moment, Qin Hao could only push Jiang Qing away, then crossed his arms in front of his chest, taking Lu Xingchen's attack head-on.
He was directly sent flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood in mid-air, and then violently crashed into a pillar at the edge of the Plaza.
Jiang Qing was extremely flustered and rushed to Qin Hao's side.
Qin Hao was also a tough man; despite such heavy injuries, he still struggled to stand up by himself.
He spat out another mouthful of fresh blood and said in a deep voice, "Retreat!"
The three of them fled the area at the fastest speed.
Lu Xingchen stopped Lin Jing, who wanted to pursue, and said, "Don't chase."
Lin Jing was a little puzzled, "Saint, why not chase? This is a good Opportunity to eliminate the Five Elements Sect's power! As long as their three Saints die, the Five Elements Sect's Foundation will be shaken."
Lu Xingchen said in a deep voice, "If I'm not mistaken, Qin Hao should have personal inner armor on him, which allowed him to withstand my full-power attack without dying. My battle Qi has already been more than half depleted, so even if I chased, I wouldn't be able to kill all three of them."
"Instead of wasting time, it's better to seize the Opportunity in front of us first. The next time we meet them, it will only be easier."
Lin Jing nodded heavily, "Understood, your idea is right."
Lu Xingchen handed Lin Jing a rejuvenation pill.
"Senior Sister Lin Jing, your fighting style is too fierce, a big consumer of rejuvenation pills!"
Lin Jing was not polite, she took the rejuvenation pill and swallowed it in one gulp.
"You really are a rich man, Medicinal Pills are eaten casually."
The two walked over to Hu Junfeng and the others, and together they sat cross-legged on the ground to recover their combat power.
The Disciples of the other Sects gathered around the edge of the Plaza, not daring to overstep their bounds.
"Damn it, this Lu Xingchen is too strong! He defeated two Great Martial Masters by himself! But he only has the Cultivation of a Seven-Star Martial Master."
"Let me calculate, Lu Xingchen is a Seven-Star Martial Master, Qin Hao is a Three-Star Great Martial Master. He actually crossed six minor Realms!"
"Even Lin Xu probably wouldn't have such powerful combat power, right?"
"With Lu Xingchen here, the Lingxiao Sect can finally hold its head high!"
An hour later, Lu Xingchen's condition returned to Peak.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a light screen appear in the center of the Plaza.
A passage of text was written on the light screen.
"In the Dao Enlightenment Plaza, there are ten stone steles. Disciples can sit on the prayer mats in front of the stone steles and touch the stone steles with their hands to comprehend the Martial Skills of the Chuyuan Secret Realm. The stone steles can only be activated after all ten people are in position."
The Disciples of the other Sects also saw this sentence and began to discuss it.
"It seems that these enlightenment stone tablets are the highlight of this trip to the Chuyuan Secret Realm!"
"I want to try it. If I can comprehend a powerful Martial Skill, I'll be set for life."
"You try what? Didn't you see Lu Xingchen is still there? Who dares to compete with him for a spot?"
"But there are ten stone steles in total, maybe it'll be my turn?"
The Disciples of the other four major Sects were originally afraid of Lu Xingchen's strength and dared not enter the Plaza.
But now, with the appearance of the light screen, their desires were also aroused, and they all stepped into the Plaza, gathering around the ten stone steles.
Lu Xingchen clapped his hands and said in a deep voice, "Don't Cultivate yet, let's occupy the enlightenment stone tablets first."
The other six people opened their eyes simultaneously.
Li Qin was a little worried, "I am only a Seven-Star Martial Master, the weakest in terms of strength. There are several Great Martial Master Realm Experts here, so I'm afraid these enlightenment stone tablets won't be my turn, right?"
Lu Xingchen said in a deep voice, "I am the Saint of the Lingxiao Sect, and I have a responsibility to fight for everyone's interests. Each of us seven should have a stone stele. If the Disciples of other Sects have any objections, they'll have to ask my shadow sword."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Lu Xingchen with some fervor.
His words were truly domineering.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Lu Xingchen walked to the first stone stele and sat cross-legged on the prayer mat.
The entire place was silent; no one dared to snatch it from Lu Xingchen.
Next were Lin Jing and Hu Junfeng.
Everyone had witnessed their strength and had no objections.
But when Ning Feng sat in front of the fourth stone stele, a One-Star Grand Martial Master from the Haotian Sect stood out.
He didn't make things difficult for Ning Feng but looked at Lu Xingchen.
"Lu Xingchen, this is a bit out of line. Everyone saw the strength of those three before, and everyone can accept them getting a stone stele."
"But this Ning Feng is only a Nine-Star Martial Master. I'm afraid he won't convince the crowd. If he occupies the stone stele, wouldn't that be an insult to the rest of us Great Martial Master Realm Experts?"
"I also don't want to harm the harmony between our two Sects, Lu Xingchen, you should still ask Ning Feng to step down!"
