Chapter 99: Luo Cang Levels Up

Chen Pu used a provocation tactic to lure Yan Xiao out, intending to strike him down with a head-on blow. If he could kill Yan Xiao, that would be for the best. Even if he couldn't kill him, being able to probe his strength would also be good.

However,

when he saw Yan Xiao actually walk out, Chen Pu's heartbeat involuntarily accelerated, and sweat beads unconsciously broke out on his palms. Yan Xiao was actually exerting immense pressure on him.

Fear Value from Chen Pu +100.

Fear Value from the Chen Family members +1000.

Yan Xiao approached step by step, his face full of a mocking smile. It was as if he were saying: "Come and hit me!"

"Fight me, and I'll play you to death." To create such an imposing effect, Yan Xiao spent 1000 Fear Value to bolster Invisible Fear, thinking to himself: "Little guy, in front of Invisible Fear, you must obediently submit."

Chen Pu took a deep breath, suppressing the restlessness in his heart; after all, he was a powerhouse at the Spirit Void Peak, and he quickly adjusted his mindset. But clearly, he had already lost the initiative.

He had already lost a step to Yan Xiao in terms of momentum.

"System, add 30,000 Fear Value."

Yan Xiao raised the Black Sword, pouring all his savings into the Immortal Sword, preparing to knock Chen Pu down with a very cool and arrogant posture, killing the chicken to warn the monkeys and intimidating the Chen Family members. With 30,000 Fear Value, Yan Xiao was certain he could kill this Chen Family lackey in one blow.

"If the Chen Family loses a powerhouse at the Spirit Void Peak, their hearts should ache quite a bit, right?" Yan Xiao thought secretly.

"Sect Master, let me handle this."

Just as Yan Xiao was preparing to strike, Luo Cang slowly walked forward.

He had said that if the Chen Family dared to come, he would be the first to strike. But facing a powerhouse at the Spirit Void Peak, he could not help but feel timid.

After struggling internally for a long time, he still could not make up his mind. When he saw Yan Xiao walk out of the Array Barrier with a powerful posture and intimidate the Chen Family members, Luo Cang's heart suddenly awakened.

"I have been at Luoxia Mountain for many years, always trembling and cautious; that initial heart of a powerhouse has long since gone silent. Being timid and fearful, I am truly ashamed! Sect Master, thank you; it was you who let me regain my confidence and retrieve that heart of a powerhouse. This battle, I will fight; even if I die, I have no regrets."

His footsteps were slow and heavy. But with every step he took, his momentum climbed a notch.

One step, two steps, three steps, four steps...

When Luo Cang walked in front of Chen Pu and met his eyes, his momentum had already climbed to its peak.

Chen Pu was truly terrified; what had just happened?

He watched as this low-class blind man walked toward him step by step, his cultivation climbing all the way from the low-class Cave Profound Realm to the Spirit Void Realm Eighth Layer.

Although his cultivation was still not as high as his own, but... but... why could he cross so many realms in such a short time? And his momentum was even higher than his own?

It was one thing for Yan Xiao to be a freak; after all, wasn't it rumored that he was the reincarnation of the Ancient Sword Demon? But why was this blind man in front of him also such a freak?

Chen Pu's psychological defenses completely collapsed.

Actually, not just him, even our Sect Master Yan was in a state of complete confusion.

"?"

"System, what is going on with this old man Luo Cang? Why did he suddenly become so badass?" Yan Xiao scratched his head. It would be a lie to say he wasn't envious!

After all, he was at the Spirit Void Realm Eighth Layer!

"His potential has erupted; he has grasped the path of a powerhouse that belongs to him. His immortal path is promising, and his future is limitless. Congratulations on gaining another remarkable fighter." The system said listlessly. It seemed to have no interest in the scene before it.

"He just erupted like that?" Yan Xiao was both happy and sad. He was happy for Luo Cang, yet worried for himself.

After all, he was still a small Foundation Establishment cultivator who couldn't level up and relied on the system to bluff. Every time he made a move, he had to spend a huge amount of Fear Value; that was his savings, and it hurt like hell...

"I am Luo Cang, dare you fight!"

Facing Chen Pu, Luo Cang summoned his Flying Sword and shouted in a deep voice.

"Why wouldn't I dare? Even if you use some demonic art, your cultivation is only at the Spirit Void Realm Eighth Layer. Killing you will take no effort." Chen Pu forced himself to stay calm, but the tone of his voice was clearly not as tough as before.

He thought: "Could this guy be hiding his strength? Will he level up a few more times while we fight? Or is he that legendary old immortal?"

Chen Pu's mind was in chaos; the outcome of this battle was unpredictable.

"Take this!"

Luo Cang shouted and made the first move, thrusting the tip of his sword forward. The air waves ahead churned as if being shredded by invisible sword Qi; a patch of space was vaguely about to be torn apart, and even his vision became blurred. The invisible sword edge enveloped Chen Pu; this strike was both fast and fierce, completely catching Chen Pu off guard.

"Great Elder, be careful!" The Chen Family members couldn't help but warn.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

Before he could react, Luo Cang thrust his sword several times in succession.

Chen Pu scrambled, retreating while fighting, using his Qi to block, but his clothes were still struck by the sword Qi, tearing open one hole after another. His headpiece was also knocked off, leaving him disheveled and in a sorry state.

"Good!" Yan Xiao couldn't help but clap and cheer; Elder Luo Cang's performance was nothing short of perfect.

"Elder Luo Cang is awesome! Kill this old scoundrel."

Without looking, Yan Xiao knew it was that guy Wang Dazhu sucking up again.

Seeing that Luo Cang had the upper hand, Wang Dazhu also grew bold, walked outside the array, and watched the battle with Yan Xiao.

"Go Elder Luo Cang!" The Shengjian Sect members also breathed a sigh of relief, cheering and clapping for Luo Cang.

Meanwhile, the Chen Family members had ashen faces, each gripping their swords tightly; if the battle turned unfavorable for Chen Pu, they would step in to help.

"Ah!"

Having suffered major losses at Luoxia Mountain twice in a row, Chen Pu completely lost his reason. He let out a roar, igniting the fire of battle in his heart, and his combat power surged.

"Go to hell!"

The momentum of the Spirit Void Peak exploded, blowing the surrounding dust into the air. An invisible pressure suddenly appeared on everyone; this was the power of realm suppression.

Luo Cang dared not be careless; he rapidly circulated his sword technique, striking out 10 swords in succession from different directions toward Chen Pu. He wanted to win with a fierce offensive as well.

"Hmph." Chen Pu sneered. With his combat power fully exploded, he was undeniably formidable. He swept his sword horizontally, shattering all of Luo Cang's fierce sword wind. Then, he switched from defense to offense, slashing down at Luo Cang from a position of superiority with a powerful posture.

Although Luo Cang's cultivation had improved, he was not yet skilled in using it, and his combat experience was not as rich as Chen Pu's. He did not expect Chen Pu to break his sword moves so easily. Facing Chen Pu's late-arriving attack, he was caught off guard and completely unprepared.

Seeing Chen Pu's lethal move coming, he couldn't dodge in time and had no choice but to take it head-on.

"Luo Cang has lost." The system sighed.

"Insufficient combat experience, and such a disparity in strength; Elder Luo Cang has already performed very well." Yan Xiao, wearing his Sunglasses, had already analyzed the situation between the two.

"If you don't act now, Luo Cang will surely be severely injured, which will affect his future cultivation." The system reminded him.

"Ah?" Yan Xiao was startled: "Why didn't you say so earlier!"

Luo Cang was his gold-medal fighter now, and would surely be a capable assistant for conquering the world in the future. If his foundation were damaged now, he wouldn't even have time to cry.

Without waiting for the system to reply, he had already quickly joined the battle, appearing behind Luo Cang.
