Chapter 140 Fighting
Kongming's words were like a sharp, icy blade, piercing through the tense and delicate atmosphere in the room, causing the surrounding air to freeze.
Jin Ting and Qin Shuang exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise and unease in each other's eyes. They knew that if the conflict escalated, the consequences would be unpredictable.
Hua Qingfeng's expression changed from gloomy to furious, his eyes seemed to be leaping with flames. He gripped the long sword in his hand tightly, the tip of the sword trembling slightly and emitting a series of low hums.
"Zhuge Kongming, you are far too arrogant! Today I will let you experience the swordsmanship of this elder!"
Hua Qingfeng roared, his sword energy surging around him, and golden sword light danced at his fingertips, as if it would materialize at any moment and tear the air apart.
As an elder of the Five Absolute Sword Sect, how could he tolerate such contempt from a mere boy who hadn't even grown up yet?
After saying this, Hua Qingfeng moved swiftly, rushing towards Kongming like an arrow released from a bow. His long sword transformed into a golden lightning bolt, pointing directly at Kongming's heart.
However, Kongming remained calm and composed in the face of this fierce attack. He waved his feather fan slightly and moved his feet lightly, avoiding Hua Qingfeng's offensive with an indescribable agility.
"Too slow. Is this the swordsmanship you're so proud of?"
Kongming had a faint smile on his lips, and although his eyes were full of disdain, he knew that with his current strength, if he were to go head-to-head with Hua Qingfeng, he would be the one to suffer.
Therefore, it would be better to use the great supernatural power of shrinking the earth to an inch to intimidate this person.
This scene astonished everyone present; they never expected Kongming to be so fast.
Even Qin Shuang and Jin Ting, who had never had confidence in Kongming's combat abilities, couldn't help but cast even more complicated glances at him.
"Good! Good! Good!"
Hua Qingfeng said "good" three times, his anger intensifying. Kongming's identity was unknown, so he dared not really kill him; this sword strike was merely a test.
"It seems I underestimated you, Zhuge Kongming. But don't be too happy yet. You can't escape my sword intent seal just by speed!"
Hua Qingfeng shouted loudly, and his sword energy surged, as if he had merged into the way of the sword, and as if he had become an indestructible sword.
Then his feet left the ground, and he floated in mid-air, surrounded by golden sword light, forming an impenetrable sword domain.
"Sword intent takes form, all swords return to their origin!"
Hua Qingfeng murmured, and the golden sword light surrounding him suddenly split into countless tiny sword shadows, each shimmering with dazzling light, like a volley of arrows or a cascading galaxy, sweeping towards Kongming.
Faced with this overwhelming barrage of sword shadows, Kongming's face showed solemnity, but he did not panic.
He moved swiftly, his figure suddenly becoming blurry, and those seemingly unsolvable sword shadows all missed their mark, failing to touch him in the slightest.
However, some of the sword lights seemed to be sentient, subtly adjusting their trajectories in mid-air, relentlessly pursuing Kongming, as if they could perceive every minute movement of his.
Kongming was secretly shocked. Hua Qingfeng's swordsmanship was indeed extraordinary. He had actually cultivated his own sword intent, and these sword lights were like Hua Qingfeng himself, thus possessing life.
Kongming's magical power surged wildly, his body radiated starlight, and a thick layer of earth-yellow spiritual energy protected him.
With a wave of his fan, the starlight instantly surged.
"Seven stars bestow their power, gravity reverses!"
Kongming gave a soft shout, and as he pushed out his feather fan, the sword lights that had been relentlessly pursuing him suddenly slowed down and their trajectories distorted under the influence of the power of the stars, eventually shooting off elsewhere.
Upon seeing this, Hua Qingfeng's expression changed slightly. He had not expected that Kongming was not only incredibly fast, but also possessed such profound methods, which were not something that ordinary forces could have.
"Could he really be a member of the Sima family?"
Hua Qingfeng was in a dilemma, but as a master swordsman, he had his pride. If he couldn't even touch Kongming's clothes, how could he maintain his standing?
Therefore, they did not lose their fighting spirit; on the contrary, it aroused an even stronger fighting will.
Hua Qing gritted his teeth and shouted loudly.
"Asura Sword Domain!"
The temperature in the space plummeted, and a chilling atmosphere filled the air.
The Asura Sword Domain is a profound sword technique that he barely managed to grasp in the late Golden Core stage after countless life-and-death trials. Once unleashed, it would cause the heavens and earth to collapse and all things to perish.
"Fellow Daoist Hua, don't be reckless!" Qin Shuang and Jin Ting hurriedly called out when they saw Hua Qingfeng unleash his Dan Domain.
After all, Kongming had just entered the Golden Core stage, and they all knew this. The Dan Domain would take at least several decades or even hundreds of years to be formed.
Therefore, ordinary early-stage Golden Core cultivators are almost powerless against powerful individuals who have cultivated their Core Domain.
At this moment, Hua Qingfeng was eager to save face and wouldn't listen to their advice.
Suddenly, the golden sword light surrounding Hua Qingfeng became even more solid. It intertwined and entangled in the air, eventually forming a huge, twisted vortex. At the center of the vortex, endless darkness and killing intent seemed to be surging. That was the true face of the Asura Sword Domain—a terrifying domain capable of devouring all life.
"Zhuge Kongming, take my 'Asura Slash'!"
Hua Qingfeng's voice rang out along with the roar of the sword domain, and a dazzling light suddenly burst forth from the center of the vortex.
Then, a jet-black sword beam shot out from it, its speed astonishing. Wherever it passed, the sword domain space seemed to be torn apart by its sharpness, leaving behind shocking cracks.
Upon seeing this, Kongming's pupils contracted. Hua Qingfeng's Dan Domain was far more powerful than Gu Zhenzi's before. The strength of the three major sects was truly unimaginable.
He took a deep breath, his magical power surged, and earth-elemental spiritual energy rapidly intertwined to form an incomparably sturdy protective shield.
At the same time, the starlight around Kongming shone brightly again, converging into the phantom image of the Big Dipper, resonating with the heavens and earth.
"Seven Star Pill Domain, open!"
With a low shout, Kongming shrouded the area within a hundred feet in darkness, leaving only seven large stars suspended in the sky.
"This... what kind of Pill Domain is this?" Qin Shuang and Jin Ting's faces were filled with disbelief.
Kong Mingming had only recently entered the Golden Core stage, yet he not only cultivated a Core Domain, but also such a mysterious and unpredictable one.
The darkness continued to spread, enveloping Hua Qingfeng's Asura Sword Domain in the blink of an eye.
"Stars reverse, earth spirit protects the body!" Kongming murmured. The surrounding starlight and earth-yellow spiritual power merged together, forming a huge star earth spirit shield that firmly protected him.
Just then, Hua Qingfeng's earth-shattering sword strike was right before their eyes.
The sword light of the Asura Slash struck the Star Barrier, unleashing a deafening roar and radiating dazzling light.
However, to everyone's astonishment, the seemingly invincible Asura Slash was actually blocked by Kongming...
