Slowly wiping away the blood from the corner of his mouth, Luo Lingtian glanced at the two marks on the ground beneath his feet.
These were caused by him dissipating the force, rubbing against the ground, and were several zhang long.
Not only that, but the bluestone floor he was standing on also had cracks due to the excessively powerful impact.
Luo Lingtian clenched his fists, looking at Chu Ge who was standing in mid-air, with his arms crossed, looking down at him.
"Senior Brother Chu! He can actually fly in the air? He's clearly only at the Third Level Heaven Realm?!"
"Haha, so what if Luo Lingtian is at the Peak of Ten Heavens? He's still suppressed by Senior Brother Chu?!"
"Luo Family members?! Speak up!"
Many people exclaimed in surprise.
The Luo Family Disciples, on the other hand, looked shocked, their eyes wide with disbelief, remaining silent.
In the arena, Luo Lingtian ignored the discussions outside and slowly stood up.
"Brother Chu's combat skills are indeed impressive."
Chu Ge's expression remained unchanged upon hearing this.
He had never learned close-quarters combat.
His ability to suppress Luo Lingtian actually relied on the Ten Thousand Laws Saint Body and the Myriad Laws Derivation Mirror still operating within his body.
The combined force of these two allowed Chu Ge to block Luo Lingtian's attacks as if he had an automatic block.
Every one of Luo Lingtian's attacks would be deduced in advance by the Derivation Mirror and the Ten Thousand Laws Saint Body, allowing Chu Ge to block them as if by instinct.
And Chu Ge's attacks were like a lock-on.
The timing of each attack was exquisite, striking Luo Lingtian's weak points, making it impossible for him to defend effectively or counterattack, leaving him only able to passively take hits!
With these two combined, Chu Ge suppressing Luo Lingtian was as simple as eating and drinking.
In fact, if he wanted to, Luo Lingtian wouldn't even last a few breaths.
The seemingly evenly matched situation earlier was merely him wanting to familiarize himself with the feeling of his Physique and the Myriad Laws Derivation Mirror working in tandem.
Once he felt it was enough, he directly broke the seemingly evenly matched situation with a single strike.
"Your physical training is good, the strength is just right, you're a good training dummy, I had a lot of fun fighting."
Chu Ge chuckled, the curve of his mouth extremely playful.
Luo Lingtian's brows furrowed, and anger began to rise in his heart.
Being defeated by Chu Ge in close combat under the gaze of so many made it difficult for him, who had always been arrogant, to accept.
Not to mention Chu Ge's words at this moment were exceptionally harsh, adding fuel to the fire.
"Hmph, close-quarters combat is just a minor skill. We Cultivators must prove ourselves in spiritual techniques."
Although Luo Lingtian was angry, it did not affect his state of mind. Instead, it made his fighting spirit surge even more, and his desire to defeat Chu Ge became even stronger.
Chu Ge couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw Luo Lingtian's fighting spirit completely ignite.
Indeed, even among Child of Destinys, one cannot generalize.
Chu Ge did not intend to say much about Luo Lingtian's character, but his state of mind, personality, and other aspects completely crushed Ye Chen, who was also a Child of Destiny.
The two were simply not on the same level.
If Ye Chen was a newly hatched chick, then Luo Lingtian was undoubtedly a young eagle that could soar across the sky. Although his wings were not yet fully grown, he could already spread them and fly.
Such an existence is not easily broken; a few blows and setbacks cannot break his will.
Spiritual energy began to erupt, unlike its previous internal containment. At this moment, Luo Lingtian fully displayed his boundless cultivation to everyone!
Spiritual energy swept forth, instantly stirring up flying sand and rolling stones!
With him as the center, most of the training ground was affected, and the howling wind and sand intensified!
"What magnificent spiritual energy! Ordinary Five Heavens Cultivators cannot compare to him at all!"
"Not only that, Luo Lingtian's spiritual energy is not only magnificent, but also extremely pure and solid! It's as if it has been tempered a thousand times!"
"A wisp of spiritual energy can surpass ten wisps from an ordinary person! It's truly terrifying! The power of spiritual techniques unleashed with such spiritual energy is simply unimaginable!"
Many Elders of Taihuang Holy Land frowned, including some Peak masters who had reached the Seventh Level Heaven!
With their eyesight, it was not difficult to see that Luo Lingtian's spiritual energy, both in quantity and quality, was exceptionally high. If an ordinary Five Heavens Cultivator were to face him, they probably wouldn't last three moves!
This was a true heaven's chosen who could fight above his level. Even without a special Physique, the strength he displayed was no less than some contemporary Saint Bodys.
Looking at the current world, among the younger generation, Luo Lingtian could firmly stand in the upper echelons of the pyramid!
"Senior Brother Chu has only been in Taihuang Holy Land for a short time. Even if he has learned spiritual techniques and has the Ten Thousand Laws Saint Body, it will probably be difficult to Cultivate them to a profound level..."
"Not to mention that he doesn't have an advantage in other aspects either. Competing with Luo Lingtian in spiritual techniques, the chances of winning are probably slim..."
An Elder sighed lightly. It wasn't that he didn't want to believe in Chu Ge, but from all aspects, such as cultivation Realm, amount of spiritual energy, and cultivation time, Chu Ge was at a disadvantage.
"Hahaha, is Cousin Lingtian finally going to get serious?"
"That's good too. Let this Senior Brother Chu take some advantage in close combat. When he loses, the scene won't be too ugly. Cousin Lingtian is quite kind!"
A group of Luo Family Disciples began to clamor in the crowd again.
They were not afraid of offending the Disciples of Taihuang Holy Land.
Although they cultivated in the same Taihuang Holy Land, those from the Luo Family had always had an innate sense of superiority over other Taihuang Disciples.
It was no wonder they were like this, for Taihuang Holy Land was founded by their Luo Family's ancestor.
Not only that, among the Holy Lords throughout history, half of them were surnamed Luo.
To put it bluntly, Taihuang Holy Land could even be considered an affiliated force of their entire Luo Family.
Many people in the Luo Family held this view.
Therefore, this led to the Luo Family Disciples having a subtly transcendent status within Taihuang Holy Land.
As Inner Sect Disciples, those surnamed Luo were inherently half a head taller than others.
"Hmph! You speak better than you sing. You said the same thing before, and what happened?"
A Taihuang Holy Land Disciple, feeling indignant, retorted.
"Hmph, ignorant! He only gained a negligible advantage in close combat. Once spiritual techniques are used, Cousin Lingtian can instantly defeat Chu Ge! Just you wait and see!"
A Luo Family Disciple responded disdainfully, his eyes full of arrogance.
In an inconspicuous corner of the crowd, Ye Chen stared intently at the arena.
Jealousy rose in his heart. Both Chu Ge and Luo Lingtian were at a level far beyond his, which made it difficult for him, who had always been self-important, to accept.
'Fight! It's best if you both end up gravely injured!'
Ye Chen thought maliciously, wishing for Chu Ge and Luo Lingtian to fight to the death.
In the arena.
Chu Ge calmly watched Luo Lingtian, whose aura continued to rise.
"Come!"
Amidst the surging tide of spiritual energy, Luo Lingtian's eyes flashed with sharp light, and he let out a furious roar.
As his voice fell, the surging spiritual energy became even more restless. Luo Lingtian clasped his hands together, forming a profound hand seal.
Terrifying spiritual energy gathered from his clasped hands, and a mighty figure appeared behind him, like an ancient deity reviving at this moment!
