At that moment, everything fell into silence.
Everyone was shocked as they stared at Qin Zi. None of them had expected Qin Zi to be so powerful, easily overwhelming the young man from the Luo Family in a single move.
What was even more unexpected was how brazen Qin Zi was. It seemed like he wouldn't stop unless Luo Chentian himself intervened.
Was he seeking death?
At this moment, Luo Chentian's gaze toward Qin Zi changed, no longer indifferent but with a hint of seriousness.
This person was not weak.
However, if this was all Qin Zi had to challenge his authority, it wasn't nearly enough!
Staring coldly at Qin Zi, Luo Chentian said, "It seems like you won't shed tears until you see the coffin, and you won't give up until you hit a wall. If that's the case, I'll grant your wish—with utter defeat!"
Boom!
In the next instant, lightning crackled around Luo Chentian, brilliant light erupting from his body, only to swiftly be retracted.
He suppressed his cultivation to the Yaocchi Realm.
This was his pride.
Luo Chentian didn't need to rely on a higher cultivation level to defeat someone. In the same realm, he was unmatched!
"The Luo Family's young master is about to make his move."
"Finally, we'll get to see the strength of the young master from the God King Clan. I wonder what kind of power he wields."
"With each generation comes new talent. I wonder how he compares to the geniuses of our era."
The surrounding crowd murmured with anticipation.
They quickly stepped back, creating a spacious area for the battle, eagerly awaiting the clash.
"So, you finally dare to make a move?"
Qin Zi sneered mockingly, saying, "But are you prepared to accept defeat?"
Luo Chentian calmly replied, "I have tasted defeat before. There are many stronger than me in this world, but you... are not qualified to ask me such a question!"
"Then let's find out!"
Qin Zi snorted coldly.
In the next moment, both of them moved simultaneously.
Boom!
Two radiant figures collided in an instant, sending shockwaves in all directions with terrifying momentum.
"Hmm?!"
In the center of the shockwave, Luo Chentian's expression shifted slightly. He hadn't expected that he wouldn't be able to subdue Qin Zi immediately.
Qin Zi was also astonished.
Luo Chentian's body was incredibly tough, causing Qin Zi's hands to go numb, as if he had just struck steel. This had never happened before. It seemed that the Luo Family's young master truly had the strength to back up his pride.
However...
This only made things more interesting!
This kind of blood-boiling battle was exactly what Qin Zi needed. He believed his father sent him here to cause trouble with this very excitement in mind.
"Die!"
In the next moment, both fighters landed punches on each other's chests, sending both of them flying backward.
"Divine Power Storm!"
Luo Chentian roared as a golden storm swirled around him, with immense energy surging from within him like a tsunami, sweeping toward Qin Zi, threatening to engulf him completely.
"Break!"
Qin Zi's Beast God Heart glowed from within, filling him with overwhelming power. The mysterious Dao bones in his body released endless runes, converging onto his right fist, which he then unleashed with a thunderous punch.
Boom!
Countless silver-white runes exploded like water droplets, while the golden energy storm collapsed under the impact.
"Come here!"
Qin Zi's right hand, wrapped in endless runes, reached out toward Luo Chentian, as though his palm held the power of an entire world.
This was a technique he had inherited from the Ancient Creation Tablet, a powerful and eerie ability passed down by a wraith.
"Seven Stars Alignment!"
Luo Chentian roared, and seven dazzling stars suddenly appeared behind him, shining as brightly as seven suns. They shot toward Qin Zi, aligned in a straight line like a fiery dragon.
Crack!
The seven stars were too powerful, causing Qin Zi's rune-covered hand to shatter, as if the world within it had been destroyed.
At the same time, white wings unfurled behind Luo Chentian, and a gleaming sword materialized in his hand. With a flap of his wings, he charged toward Qin Zi at lightning speed.
Whoosh!
His wings cut through the air, and it seemed like time itself parted to let him pass. He moved through the seams of time, faster than anything Qin Zi had ever encountered.
"Not good!"
Qin Zi's pupils contracted violently, and an unprecedented sense of danger surged through him.
Luo Chentian was too fast.
So fast that Qin Zi's mind couldn't keep up. Even if his consciousness reacted, his body couldn't.
At that moment, all he could think about was moving faster, but his body felt like it was filled with lead, unable to move in the brief instant that remained.
Luo Chentian's sword was already sweeping toward him.
The light from the sword seemed capable of cutting through anything!
"Move! I must move!!!"
Veins bulged on Qin Zi's forehead as he screamed internally. In that desperate moment, every cell in his body ignited with potential, and his blood began to burn.
Boom!
A burst of golden flames erupted from Qin Zi's body, rising like a mushroom cloud. Above him, the flames took the form of a lifelike phoenix, ancient and regal, brimming with boundless power.
Crack!
In that instant, Qin Zi shattered through some invisible limit, breaking free from the temporal restraints on his body.
He raised his right hand, now engulfed in golden flames, and caught the incoming sword.
Ding!
The sword clanged against his hand as if striking solid steel, but Qin Zi's hand remained unscathed.
"How... how is this possible?!"
Luo Chentian's face changed, and with a twist of his wrist, the sword in Qin Zi's grip exploded in a burst of light. At the same time, his white wings slammed into Qin Zi.
Bang!
Qin Zi was sent flying.
However, his entire body was engulfed in golden flames, with the phoenix hovering above him, seemingly invulnerable to any harm.
"I'm so powerful... Is this really me?"
Qin Zi took a deep breath, gazing in disbelief at his own hand. Threads of golden flame seeped through his fingers, swaying like seaweed, radiating terrifying strength.
"Suppress him."
With newfound confidence, Qin Zi raised his head and sent a palm strike toward Luo Chentian. Instantly, a storm of golden flames surged through the sky.
"Luo Shui Heavenly River!"
Luo Chentian roared toward the heavens as the sky cracked open above him. A murky river flowed down, surrounding him in a protective barrier.
The Yellow River flowed down from the heavens!
However, as the storm of golden flames swept past, the heavenly river evaporated, and the flames crashed violently into Luo Chentian.
Pfft
Luo Chentian spat out a mouthful of blood and flew back like a broken kite. Qin Zi, like a meteor, shot forward.
Thud!
In the next moment, Qin Zi had grabbed Luo Chentian by the throat, shaking him slightly as he held him aloft.
"Now, do I qualify? Let me ask you again—can you accept defeat?"
Qin Zi looked directly into Luo Chentian's eyes, squinting with a mocking smile.
"You... you... AHHH!!!"
Luo Chentian's eyes reddened as he stared at Qin Zi. He seemed to want to say something, but instead, overwhelmed with fury, he let out a beast-like roar.
His pride had been shattered.
"Die!!!"
With a furious cry, his suppressed Heavenly God cultivation burst forth like a floodgate.
Pfft!
Yet in the next instant, his body froze, and the floodgate seemed to be blocked by something.
It was a long red spear.
There was no spearhead.
But it had pierced straight through Luo Chentian's body.
Whoosh!
At that moment, the entire scene froze in silence.
Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief as they stared at this shocking spectacle, and time seemed to stand still.
"Young Master!!!"
The members of the Luo Family finally reacted, letting out panicked roars as they rushed toward the scene.
