Chapter 1453: Qingfeng’s True Intention
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
When Qingfeng saw that the Fate Elder refused to interfere, he walked forward towards Old Monster Lishui. He wouldn’t let this old bastard get away.
All the self-cultivators around stepped back, leaving a large empty area for Qingfeng and Old Monster Lishui’s battle. They all knew they weren’t Old Monster Lishui’s match, and if they stood too close, they might be wounded by collateral damage. Thus, it was best to stand back.
Qingfeng moved very quickly, every one of his steps spanning several tens of meters, and he immediately appeared before Old Monster Lishui. He raised his Fire Emperor Sword and charged forward when he was within reach.
The Fire Emperor Sword moved at great speed, immediately tearing a massive hole in the air and scattering dimensional fragments as it exuded red flaming sword energy as it pierced at Old Monster Lishui.
Underneath the sword intent, the trees, mountains, rocks, and rivers around were all burned up into a sea of fire, gathering and forming a red lion of flames.
Old Monster Lishui frowned with shock in his eyes. He never expected the young Qingfeng to have acquired such a legendary level of sword intent.
Even the two-hundred-year-old Old Monster Lishui hadn’t acquired such a high-level of sword intent.
Without any hesitation, Old Monster Lishui pulled out his Ice Bridge, releasing massive ice energy that formed a freezing river of water, rushing towards the flame lion to extinguish it.
Amongst the five elements, water and fire were direct opposites. When water was cold and abundant enough, it could extinguish fire. By the same logic, when fire was hot enough, it could evaporate water.
Old Monster Lishui had failed to recognize the power of Qingfeng’s flame sword intent. It released burning flames that contained incredibly high heat and horrific power. As it clashed with the freezing river, a loud explosion sounded.
Suddenly, heaven and earth were thrown into an upheaval, rocks and soil flew everywhere, and the clash of these two powerful elemental energies shattered and destroyed all those nearby.
With a naked eye, one could see a massive black crater had formed where the collision took place. This black hole was several thousand metres deep, and all the self-cultivators around grew pale and hurriedly stepped back in terror.
Some unlucky self-cultivators failed to escape and were hit by the impact of these two powerful forces. They dropped to the ground shaking, spitting out blood as their faces turned ghastly white.
“Qingfeng and Old Monster Lishui’s attack power is too powerful, I can’t stand it.”
“You should say that Qingfeng is too powerful. He is only twenty-some years old and was able to compete with the two-hundred-year-old Old Monster Lishui! It’s unbelievable”
“I thought the Old Monster Lishui would win, but now it seemed like that’s impossible. Qingfeng seems to be much more powerful.”
All the self-cultivators around discussed passionately and looked at Qingfeng with disbelief.
If anyone thought that Qingfeng wasn’t Old Monster Lishui’s match before, then after the last exchange, everyone’s thoughts on Qingfeng had changed drastically. He was a superpower and had the hopes of taking the Chief Badge.
Not only were all the self-cultivators around shocked, even the two powerhouses, the Fate Elder and White-Crane Fairy, were surprised.
These two were both masters of the ninth level of the Spirit Emperor Realm, only one level higher than the eighth level Old Monster Lishui. Qingfeng was now able to tie with Old Monster Lishui, so if he fought against the two of them, he would still be able to pose as a great challenge. This made them feel hints of insecurity.
Which meant, Qingfeng had a considerable chance of obtaining the Chief Badge as well.
Qingfeng didn’t care about what those around him thought, because he was focusing on his enemy, Old Monster Lishui.
Qingfeng flourished his Fire Emperor Sword nonstop, forming a ray of red flames combining sword energy with red sword intent. Suddenly, he flicked his sword, shooting the beam at Old Monster Lishui.
Naturally, Old Monster Lishui wouldn’t give up. He waved his Ice Bridge nonstop, conjuring a ray of water element vital essence that clashed onto Qingfeng’s fire sword energy. A loud explosion took place, and its shock exploded the whole space.
Qingfeng and Old Monster Lishui fought endlessly, as the sun set and rose, from up in the sky to down underneath the ground.
Air and space shattered. Rocks, soil, and trees were upheaved and thrown into the sky. The dimensional walls were assaulted by the force and dimensional fragments were scattered.
The other self-cultivators around all kept on stepping back. Their faces were incredibly pale, some even spitting out blood because they couldn’t stand the massive force of Qingfeng and Old Monster Lishui’s energy clash.
Qingfeng was only a third level spirit emperor, but his combat abilities were no less weaker than an eighth level spirit emperor.
Qingfeng’s Fire Emperor Sword was covered in five layers of sword intent, which he unleashed into the sky. In his other hand, he punched out with the Strangle Hell Fist, shattering space while his mouth shouted out the Fourth Roar – Thunder Lightning Lion. Under these three attacks, Old Monster Lishui was left defenseless.
Luckily, Old Monster Lishui still had the Ice Bridge, or else Qingfeng would’ve already defeated him.
In the end, these two competed in vital essence power. Qingfeng had large amounts of internal vital essence because he trained in the Heavenly Immortal Chant that helped him gather an endless supply of energy.
While the two fought, they charged upwards on the Dragon Tiger Mountain. Undeniably, Qingfeng and Old Monster Lishui both had their own intentions.
These two appeared to be fighting, but they both secretly wanted to capture the Chief Badge on the Dragon Tiger Mountain. However, everyone else around thought they were just fighting to kill eachother, and didn’t see through their intentions.
Suddenly, the Fate Elder’s expressions changed as he realized that Qingfeng and Old Monster Lishui had already reached half way up the Mountain.
“Oh no, Qingfeng and Old Monster Lishui may seem to be fighting each other, but they’re heading towards Dragon Tiger Mountain. They are after the Chief Badge!” said Fate Elder with a changed expression.
Like the old saying, the older you became, the more experience you will have gathered, and the more clearly you can see through things.
All the other self-cultivators still hadn’t noticed Qingfeng and Old Monster Lishui’s intentions. Only the three hundred years old Fate Elder saw through their true intentions because of his powerful observation skills.
White-Crane Fairy’s attractive face changed in realization once she heard the Fate Elder.
No wonder she felt it was odd that Qingfeng and Old Monster Lishui’s battle was taking such a weird turn. So these two were charging towards the top of Dragon Tiger Mountain for the Chief Badge while they were fighting.
