Chapter 1678

"This is... the legendary Spirit-grade pill!" Bei Mingyuan, seeing Xiao Yifeng's momentum surge to its peak, could not help but change his expression. "You actually possess a pill of this level!"

Xiao Yifeng said nothing; he knew this was his only chance. He gripped the cyan longsword tightly and charged toward Bei Mingyuan.

Bei Mingyuan also became solemn; he felt that Xiao Yifeng's aura was more than double what it had been before.

The two crossed in mid-air; sword qi and palm winds crisscrossed, emitting a series of booms. Powerful shockwaves shattered all the tables and chairs in the hall, and the entire hall seemed on the verge of collapse.

The more Bei Mingyuan fought, the more alarmed he became; he felt Xiao Yifeng's strength constantly surging, and the speed was unimaginably fast.

Just after dozens of exchanges, Xiao Yifeng suddenly let out a mighty roar: "Spirit-grade Sword Technique — Green Lotus Sword Song!"

The cyan longsword in his hand instantly transformed into countless sword shadows, as if to envelop the entire hall.

Bei Mingyuan's expression changed; he felt that these sword shadows contained a power capable of destroying heaven and earth, as if to utterly annihilate him.

He dared not be careless and immediately activated the Shadow Demon Art. Black light surged around his body, condensing into a massive black pillar of light that crashed toward those sword shadows.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The black pillar of light and the sword shadows collided, emitting a series of deafening roars. The entire hall trembled violently, as if it would collapse at any moment.

Bei Mingyuan and Xiao Yifeng faced each other in mid-air; their attacks grew increasingly fierce, filling the hall with intense energy fluctuations.

Suddenly, Xiao Yifeng let out a mighty roar: "Green Lotus Sword Art — Green Lotus Blooms!"

The cyan longsword in his hand instantly turned into countless green lotus petals, sweeping toward Bei Mingyuan. These petals emitted a faint fragrance, making one feel refreshed and at ease.

Bei Mingyuan felt a cool breath emanate from the petals, and immediately afterward, he was completely enveloped by those petals.

He tried to struggle but found himself completely controlled by those petals. He tried to roar but found he could not open his mouth.

"This is... what is happening?" he thought inwardly.

He clearly felt his body bound by some mysterious power, unable to move.

A cunning glint flashed in Xiao Yifeng's eyes; he thought inwardly, "It is time to end this battle!"

He gripped the cyan longsword with both hands and charged toward Bei Mingyuan.

Bei Mingyuan could only watch helplessly as Xiao Yifeng rushed at him; he tried to struggle but found he could not move.

"Crash!"

With a tremendous crash, Xiao Yifeng thrust the cyan longsword with full force into Bei Mingyuan's chest.

Bei Mingyuan's body shuddered; he felt his heart torn apart by something, and intense pain spread throughout his entire body.

He opened his mouth wide but found he could not make a sound. His eyes filled with terror and unwillingness, and he slowly fell to the ground.

Xiao Yifeng gripped the cyan longsword tightly, standing before Bei Mingyuan, his gaze filled with sharp light.

He knew that although this contest had ended, even more severe challenges awaited them next. He must remain vigilant, ready at all times to respond to whatever changes might come.

He took a deep breath, planted the cyan longsword in the ground, then turned and walked out of the hall.

He knew the next battle would be the most arduous one since they entered the ruins. He must make complete preparations to avoid failure after all the effort.

Just as he was about to exit the hall, a black shadow flashed from a corner. Yu Guang caught a glimpse of this shadow from the corner of his eye, and his heart stirred.

"It seems there are still unknown dangers within this ruin," he thought inwardly.

He gripped the cyan longsword tightly, heightened his vigilance, and quickly walked out of the hall. The road ahead would be even more perilous, but he was already prepared to face everything.
