Dragon Prince Yuan c1-1251

Le Tian solemnly nodded. He icily stared Zhou Yuan and said, “Let’s join forces and transform our Qi into swords! Shatter the thunderclouds!”

  Boom!

  As voice rang out, a torrent of powerful Genesis Qi shot into the sky.

  The Sword Cometh Peak disciples around him also began to circulate their Genesis Qi. Stream after stream of Genesis Qi gathered together, transforming into a several hundred feet tall Genesis Qi pillar in the air.

  The Genesis Qi rose straight into the sky like smoke.

  A sharp and deadly aura pulsed from it, causing the surrounding space to distort.

  Le Tian clapped his hands together. He was the person in charge, and the thick Genesis Qi column in the sky thus under his control.

  The pressure of wielding such tremendous power caused the veins to pop out on his forehead, and even his eyes began to turn blood-red.

  He gritted his teeth and began directing the Genesis Qi. Under the shocked eyes of the crowd, the giant Genesis Qi pillar began to shrink, before it finally transformed into a several hundred feet large glowing sword.

  That glowing sword towered between the land and the sky, pulsing with an unrivalled aura of sharpless.

  Up against this glowing sword, even a peak sixth-layer Alpha Origin disciple would be filled with terror.

  “Le Tian is quite the capable indeed. To think that he is able to gather the Genesis Qi from the other disciples and transform it into a sword…” Several disciples sighed in admiration.

  “The Genesis Qi that they practise seems to be of the same source. Looks like Sword Cometh Peak does have its unique methods.”

  “If Le Tian can destroy the thunderclouds, Zhou Yuan’s boundary will fall apart. Tsk, tsk, Le Tian does indeed live up to his title as the number one gold sash disciple of Sword Cometh Peak. It's really amazing that he found a way out even in such a desperate situation.”

  Atop the boulder, Zhou Yuan naturally realized what Le Tian and the rest were doing. His Spirit shuddered, and the red thunderclouds in the sky began to shrink into the shape of a funnel, as alarming Genesis Qi undulations began to converge.

  Manipulating the boundary on such a grand scale was naturally extremely taxing on Zhou Yuan’s Spirit. In fact, blood had even begun to flow out from the corners of his eye.

  However, he showed no signs of stopping. At this juncture, all he could do was advance.

  Otherwise, all of his hard work from earlier would be wasted.

  Therefore, Zhou Yuan remained calm, while the shuddering of his Spirit grew increasingly violent.

  The Saint Spirit Crystal slowly rotated above his Spirit, giving off a glow that continuously replenished his Spirit power.

  Under the nervous stares of the crowd, both parties prepared their strongest attack in hopes of utterly blowing away the other.

  The veins on Le Tian’s face squirmed violently, making him appear rather hideous. He looked at the giant glowing sword, feeling the powerful sword Qi within, before his eyes locked onto Zhou Yuan.

  “If you want my Sword Cometh Peak to become your stepping stone, I can only tell you that you must be dreaming!”

  “Break!”

  In the wake of his yell, the glowing sword suddenly dashed into the sky, leaving behind a tail of flames. Sword Qi howled, charging straight towards the red thunderclouds in the sky.

  Zhou Yuan’s tightly shut eyes finally opened at this moment, a trail of blood dripping from the corner of his eye. This was the sign that he had pushed his Spirit to its limit.

  He lifted his head, and stared at the red funnel shaped thundercloud.

  “Red! Lightning! Fire!”

  A deep voice sounded emerged from his mouth.

  Cackle!

  A red light poured out from the thundercloud, taking the shape of a hundred feet wide flaming red ball. Lightning swam and swirled around the flaming ball, as extremely berserk undulations devastated its surroundings.

  The entire boundary trembled as the red ball of fire shot out. This was because it had exhausted all its Genesis Qi.

  Swoosh!

  Under the attention of numerous nervous observers, the glowing sword dashed upwards, while the red flaming ball fell. In the end, they viciously crashed into each other.

  Boom!

  An earth-shattering explosion unfurled above the valley.

  Su Wan, Xia Yu and the other watching disciples quickly retreated to avoid being caught in the aftershocks.

  Outside the mountain range, numerous gazes were glued to the epicenter of the clash.

  The violent shockwaves continued to wreak havoc for quite some time, before slowly dying down as the dust also began to settle.

  The valley had been completely destroyed, basically turning into a flat land. The debris scattered all over the ground indicated just how much destruction the shockwaves had caused...

  “Who won?!”

  Many disciples hurriedly cast their gazes over.

  On the flattened valley, Le Tian, Lu Xuanyin and the rest of their crew had not moved from the spot, their bodies as still as statues.

  Opposite them, the boulder on which Zhou Yuan had sat had already been turned to dust, leaving him now standing instead on his original spot. Fresh blood flowed down from the corners of his eyes, making him appear rather sinister.

  The entire valley was deathly silent.

  A cool breeze blew past.

  Urgh!

  Urgh!

  Next, countless gazes watched in shock as Le Tian and the rest of the Sword Cometh Peak disciples suddenly vomited mouthfuls of fresh blood.

  Under the setting sun, their bodies began to fall backwards onto the ground one after another.

  It was an extremely shocking sight.

  It was completely silent both outside the valley and the mountain range.

  Chapter 374 Sword Cometh Peak Team Wiped Out

  Huu.

  A gentle breeze blew past in the leveled valley, sweeping up a cloud of dust.

  Regardless of whether it was outside the valley or the mountain range, everyone’s gazes seemed to have frozen as they stared at the figures in the valley.

  At this current time, a bloody fog was still drifting in the air, while the Sword Cometh Peak disciples fell on their backs, one after another.

  Beams of light descended from the sky, sweeping up the heavily injured disciples, and tossing them out of the mountain range...

  Only then did the countless stunned gazes gradually begin to return to their senses.

  By this time, most of the Sword Cometh Peak disciples were already gone from the devastated valley, and only two figures remained.

  The one standing at the front was Le Tian. His hair was scattered behind him, and his complexion was deathly pale, making him cut an extremely sorry figure.

  Behind him, was a completely unscathed Lu Xuanyin. Her main task had been to control the Divine Sea Pearl earlier, and had thus not poured any Genesis Qi into the glowing sword. As a result, she had not been caught up in the earlier clash.

  However, even though she looked completely unhurt, her eyes were filled with terror. She trembled as she stared at her front, where the boulder Zhou Yuan sat on previously had already turned into dust, leaving him silently standing there.

  Zhou Yuan’s sleeves had been blasted apart at some unknown time. He wore an expression of cold indifference, while blood flowed from the corners of his eyes, making him look rather terrifying.

  Zhou Yuan paid no heed to the blood, as he continued to stare at the pale Le Tian.

  Under his stare, Le Tian’s chest rose faintly. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly vomited out a mouthful of fresh blood, before a bitter smile appeared on his face.

  “Zhou Yuan, you are truly something.” His voice was hoarse.

  Le Tian never imagined that this would be the final outcome of their hunt.

  Nearly twenty of the most elite gold sash disciples from Sword Cometh Peak had joined forces, and yet, they had not only failed to easily finish off
Zhou Yuan, but instead allowed him to successfully set up a boundary, turn the tables on them and wipe out their entire team.

  With regards to such an outcome, even Le Tian had no choice but to smile bitterly. However, he was not upset about it at all. After all, he had already went all-out against Zhou Yuan. That was the reason why he had chosen to ignore his image, and sent so many gold sash disciples after the latter.

  He had already tried his best, but had still lost in the end.

  This wasn’t because he underestimated Zhou Yuan. Rather, Zhou Yuan simply had too many cards hidden up his sleeves.

  “Zhou Yuan…”

  “You are really formidable...”

  “In the future, you might become one of the top disciples in our Cangxuan Sect…”

  Le Tian let out a hoarse chuckle, before slowly shutting his eyes as his body began to fall. He had also exhausted all his Genesis Qi in the previous clash.

  Swoosh!

  A beam of light fell from the sky and swept him away.

  When Zhou Yuan saw that Le Tian had disappeared, he finally gingerly raised his hand and wiped off the traces of blood at the corners of his eyes. A sharp pain stabbed him between his brows, making him feel a little dizzy.

  This was a sign that he had pushed his Spirit to its limit.

  If Le Tian and gang had managed to hang on for just a little while longer, the one who lost would have been him instead. His opponents were after all no push-overs, and were most outstanding amongst this batch of gold sash disciples from Sword Cometh Peak.

  Each one was likely as strong as Wei Youxuan.

  If not for the boundary, Zhou Yuan knew that there was no way he could fight against so many of them all by himself.

  Thankfully, he was the last man standing.

  Boom!

  The instant Le Tian’s body was swept out of the selection test, an earth-shattering commotion erupted both inside and outside the mountain range, a wave of noise dashing into the sky.

  What had they just witnessed?!

  Zhou Yuan had singlehandedly eliminated all the top gold sash disciples of Sword Cometh Peak!

  Numerous disciples had their mouths ajar, their faces were filled with shock.

  The scenario of a single person eliminating all the participants from an entire peak had never happened in the Cangxuan Sect before!

  However, they had just witnessed it today...

  “That’s crazy, right?!” Some disciples muttered to themselves, while others felt that they were dreaming.

  Numerous disciples swallowed, respect appearing in their eyes as they looked at the young figure projected by the Genesis Qi mirror. After today’s battle, Zhou Yuan’s reputation would likely exceed even some of the veteren purple sash disciples.

  As she listened to the commotion that infected the many mountains, Gu Hongyi’s face began to glow. She proudly stuck out her chest as she turned to look at the shell-shocked female disciples around her and said, “So how was it?”

  You guys were making fun of me earlier, but now all of you must be shocked, right?

  The female disciples turned to look at one another, evidently so stunned by Zhou Yuan’s accomplishment that they were at a loss for words.

  A pleased grin emerged on Gu Hongyi’s face, before she glanced at Qin Lan, whose face was now a mix of green and white, and said, “Senior brother Qin Lan, what do you think now?”

  Qin Lan’s expression was rather ugly as he forced a smile and said, “Haha, his luck is not bad. His boundary was also at its limit earlier, and if Le Tian had held on for just a little longer, Zhou Yuan would have been defeated instead.”

  His words drew the disdain of not only Gu Hongyu, but even made some of the female disciples, who were his fans, purse their lips. They clearly felt that Qin Lan was being too petty, and did not even have the courage to acknowledge the truth.

  Zhou Yuan had taken on all the gold sash disciples from Sword Cometh peak by himself. How gusty was that? And yet, Qin Lan refused to give his acknowledgement. Such pettiness was clear for all to see.

  Under those disdainful gazes, Qin Lan felt his face burn as he quickly withdrew. However, he was filled with anger when he looked towards Zhou Yuan’s projection in the Genesis Qi mirror.

  “Humph, you brainless kid. Do you really think that it is very glamorous for you to eliminate Le Tian and the rest?”

  “The two Chosens of Sword Cometh Peak are known to be overprotective. You may have made a name for yourself today, but you have also offended both of them. Therefore, you will definitely suffer in the future!”

  The disciples from Shen Taiyuan’s faction were already cheering. All of their faces were flushed with excitement and emotion.

  There was no longer any of the past contempt when the disciples from the other peaks looked over, but instead curiosity in their eyes. Zhou Yuan’s performance in this purple sash selection test had clearly made the other disciples no longer dare to look down on Saint Genesis Peak like before.

  Zhou Tai sighed as he said, “Junior brother Zhou Yuan is truly amazing.”

  Zhou Yuan’s victory was certainly a tremendous boost to their reputation.

  Shen Taiyuan stroked his beard, a big smile on his typically stern face. He seemed to feel increasingly gratified as he looked at Zhou Yuan.

  “Old man Shen, it seems like you have picked up a gem this time.” Elder Lu Song walked over as he smiled at Shen Taiyuan. The envy in his voice was difficult to conceal.

  Zhou Yuan had stolen the show today, and since he belonged to Shen Taiyuan’s faction, it would inevitably also allow Shen Taiyuan to gain face.

  In fact, it had been a long time since such amazing battle accomplishments had come from someone from their Saint Genesis Peak.

  Nearby, Lu Yan and the rest were wide-eyed as they stared at this scene.

  Lu Yan involuntarily said, “That kid is simply too strange. It’s almost like he’s an abnormality!”

  One of the disciples around her quietly whispered, “Senior sister, do you think that he has the qualifications to catch up to senior Chu Qing now?”

  Lu Yan made a pose like she was going to hit him, as she angrily said, “Are you looking for a beating…”

  She paused for a moment, her lips pulling outwards as she said, “I admit that he’s very formidable. However, it is still a little unfair to him if he were to be compared to senior Chu Qing for now.”

  She stared at that slim figure in the Genesis Qi mirror in silence for a moment, before she slowly opened her mouth again.

  “But if we give him another three years, I believe he might be just like senior Chu Qing, and become the apex disciple of our Cangxuan Sect.”

  “Perhaps… he may truly be the one that will lead our Saint Genesis Peak back to glory.”

  Chapter 375 Beneath the Ten Peaks

  A wave of noise surged through the mountains, clearly demonstrating how shocked the many disciples were inside.

  In fact, it even spread to the highest peak.

  Six powerful existences that were renowned across the entire Cangxuan Heaven, turned their attention towards the deepest part of the mountain range. They were naturally aware of the outcome of that fight. For a time, surprise flashed across the faces of sect master Qing Yang and the rest.

  “Haha, this is interesting.” Sect master Qing Yang chuckled, a look of appreciation in his eyes. As the sect master of the Cangxuan Sect, he was naturally felt pleased to have such an outstanding disciple in his sect.

  Snow Lotus Peak master Liu Lianyi also looked in amazement at the figure in the depths of the mountain range. She soon turned to look at peak master Ling Jun and said with a skin deep smile, “Peak master Ling Jun, Sword Cometh Peak has been constantly snatching up all the most talented disciples over the years. But from what I can see, they don’t seem to amount to much? I can’t believe that the entire team was eliminated by a Saint Genesis Peak disciple.”

  She did not get along well with peak master Ling Jun, and was natural
ly not going to miss out on the chance to rub it on when Sword Cometh Peak had suffered such a huge loss.

  Peak master Ling Jun nonchalantly smiled as he said, “That disciple named Zhou Yuan is truly a rarely found good seedling.”

  His gaze swept towards a certain direction, where the elders from Sword Cometh Peak were located. When these elders noticed his gaze, all of them lowered their heads in embarrassment.

  The eliminated disciples belonged to their factions after all.

  Peak master Ling Jun suddenly said, “It seems like my gold sash disciples lack training.”

  The group of elders heard his words felt their hearts shake when they heard his words. Even though they could not detect any hints of anger in peak master Ling Jun’s voice, his words were evidently voicing his displeasure.

  Le Tian and gang’s performance had made peak master Ling Jun feel quite humiliated. After today’s debacle, punishment was unavoidable.

  As elders of Sword Cometh Peak, they clearly understood peak master Ling Jun’s character. If Le Tian and his crew managed to finish off Zhou Yuan, even if others complained that they were ganging up on him, the peak master would ignore them. This was because he only cared about the results, and not the process.

  However, Le Tian and his crew had lost, causing Sword Cometh Peak to lose face in the Cangxuan Sect. In peak master Ling Jun’s eyes, these disciples would undoubtedly be regarded as useless.

  As they thought about the punishment that Le Tian and the rest would face, the elders could only sigh inside. Le Tian was actually an extremely talented disciple. Otherwise, there was no way he could become the number one gold sash disciple of Sword Cometh Peak. However, peak master’s opinion of him would drop drastically after today.

  ...

  While the entire place was in shock, Zhou Yuan gently massaged his throbbing head in the flattened valley, before he turned his indifferent gaze towards the pale Lu Xuanyin.

  She was now the only remaining Sword Cometh Peak disciple.

  When she saw the indifference in Zhou Yuan’s eyes, her already pale face turned even paler. The result of the fight had hit her the hardest, leaving her in utter shock.

  Never in her wildest dreams would she have imagined that all the Sword Cometh Peak disciples would be eliminated by Zhou Yuan.
