Chapter 623 - The True Trump Card

Chapter 623 - The True Trump Card

Crash!

The clear flowing sound of water was lingering in the sky, and because of that crisp noise, many students felt their scalps numbing. Clearly, they sensed the dreadful power contained within that gentle flowing water.

The clear and gentle water flow changed from a huge stream into a lake as it engulfed Xue Tianhe, as well as the Demonic Blood Beast, within.

Xue Tianhe’s face was extremely unsightly as he looked at the clear flowing water that surrounded him. However, he wasn’t someone that would sit still and wait for death. His eyes turned dark as his seals changed, the Demonic Blood Beast roared as it widened its hideous mouth. A huge ray of bloody light shot out as rampant Spiritual Energy ripples swept out.

Poof!

It wasn’t very effective when the ferocious bloody light slammed against the wall of water, and under the scour of the water flow, it was rapidly dissipating.

The lake that looked gentle was an impenetrable prison, at this moment, that had Xue Tianhe imprisoned within.

Luo Li stood in midair as she looked at Xue Tianhe, who was intensely struggling. Shortly after, she extended her hand as she lightly pointed down.

Boom!

The gentle lake suddenly turned violent and vaguely, a savage face started to appear. The water flows shrunk as torrential waves ruthlessly slammed against the colossal figure of the Demonic Blood Beast, along with a peculiar ripple.

Creak! Creak!

Howling shrieks rang out from the impact of the waves. Mist rose from the colossal figure of the Demonic Blood Beast as large patches of blood and flesh were being dissolved. Naturally, the Demonic Blood Beast was not a corporeal body, it was just the form of a soul. What was dissolved weren’t the genuine flesh and blood, but pure Spiritual Energy and Soul Essences.

Thus, faced with the constant scouring of the vast lake, everyone clearly witnessed the scene of the Demonic Blood Beast’s colossal figure rapidly shrinking, and clearly, the reason was due to the Spiritual Energy being constantly exhausted.

Xue Tianhe’s face was pale as he stood on the shoulder of the Demonic Blood Beast, his gaze was overwhelmed with shock. No matter how he tried to resist, there was no way he could defend against the gentle and clear-looking lake. Thus, he could only stare as the Demonic Blood Beast was being dissolved by the torrential lake.

In less than ten breath’s time, the Demonic Blood Beast that was trapped in the torrential lake already shrunk to half of its original size, even the violent Spiritual Energy ripples started to wither.

“Serpent of the Luo River.”

Luo Li’s gorgeous face still maintained her calm look as she formed seals with one hand.

Hiss!

A piercing hiss resounded from the lake and with a rustle, the lake was torn apart as a dozen water pythons scuttled forth, swinging their tails as they twined onto the Demonic Blood Beast. That dreadful energy instantly restricted the movement of the Demonic Blood Beast, the power behind it seemed to be trying to crush the Demonic Blood Beast to shreds.

Xue Tianhe’s face was hideous as he planted both of his arms into the Demonic Blood Beast as the blood essence in his body gushed out. But despite his efforts, he could only barely defend. Also, he felt that as the pressure was getting stronger, his defence was gradually withering away.

This dissolving ability of the Luo River was simply too overbearing!

When innumerable students around the Battle Stage witnessed that scene, they could not help exclaiming as no one had thought that Luo Li’s trump cards would be so powerful when she revealed them. The instant she moved, she managed to thoroughly suppress Xue Tianhe.

“Senior Sister Luo Li go for it!”

Many students in the direction of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy had excited expressions as they yelled their cheers. Although they lost their strongest participant, Mu Chen, Luo Li’s performance made them feel startled as well. Although the Champion of this Great Spiritual Academy Tournament had yet to emerge, no one could deny that the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy was the brightest.

Creak!

Under the torrential yells, Xue Tianhe’s face grew even paler as creaking noises came from the body of the colossal Demonic Blood Beast. It was a sign that it had reached its limits. If this went on, the Demonic Blood Beast would certainly be destroyed and at that time, Xue Tianhe would also suffer heavy injuries and wouldn’t have any power to fight Luo Li.

Lii!

Just when Xue Tianhe was about to reach his limits, an ancient hawk cry rang out between the heavens and earth. Everyone’s eyelids twitched as they saw the illusion of a hawk descending from the sky. That illusion looked as if it had torn through space and entered the lake to strike Xue Tianhe’s body.

Boom! Boom!

That image flashed as numerous pythons were being destroyed.

Boom!

Sensing that the restraint had weakened, Xue Tianhe immediately controlled the Demonic Blood Beast to soar into the horizon, escaping from the engulfment of the lake, before he stopped his tracks in midair, looking miserable. A smear of palpitation flashed across his eyes. He never expected that after Luo Li unveiled her trump card of the Luo River’s Spirit, she would become so powerful that he nearly carelessly lost his life.

Seeing Xue Tianhe escape from the imprisonment, Luo Li slightly knitted her brows as she raised her head, looking at another direction as she spoke with a calm tone, “You finally summoned the Primordial Skydragon Hawk?”

Countless gazes rose as they saw Ji Xuan standing not far away with vast Spiritual Energy fluctuations behind him. Amongst the Spiritual Energy fluctuations, everyone could see the gradual appearance of a colossal hawk light illusion.

That colossal hawk unfolded wings that could even cover mountains. It was dark purple in colour and on the head region, it wasn’t the head of a hawk, but a ferocious dragon. Its sharp claws were the claws of a dragon. It was a creature that wasn’t a dragon or a hawk. The Primordial Skydragon Hawk, Rank 8 of the Spiritual Beast Records.

The Primordial Skydragon Hawk was a pretty violent supreme Spiritual Beast. Although this Spiritual Beast possessed a slight bloodline of a mixed dragon, it was precisely the fusion of this bloodline that created a variant. Thus, allowing the Primordial Skydragon Hawk to surpass it. Rumour had it that when this Spiritual Beast had cultivated to the end, it could even feast on dragons. Naturally… the dragons were only those powerful Spiritual Beasts that possessed a strand of a dragon’s bloodline. However, this wasn’t a reason to belittle it, since it proved the ferocity of the Primordial Skydragon Hawk.

“Primordial Skydragon Hawk… although its ranking is pretty high, you can’t be thinking that you can contend against the Luo River’s Spirit with it, right?” Luo Li’s pupils were staring at the colossal Primordial Skydragon Hawk as her voice resounded without any ripples.

“Haha, the Luo River’s Spirit is famed as the Numero Uno of the Spiritual Beast Records. Naturally, it’s not possible for me to fight it based on the Soul Essence of the Primordial Skydragon Hawk.” Ji Xuan made a slight smile as he looked at Luo Li and continued his speech, “After utilising the Luo River’s Spirit, your strength must be endlessly close to the Sovereign Realm, right?”

The moment his voice resounded, it made countless students astonished in their hearts as they looked at the gorgeous silhouette with revere. The Sovereign Realm… it was a divider that was nearly similar to shredding one’s mortal body and bones. Only by entering into the Sovereign Realm, can they be called experts. Although the Sovereign Realm and Spirit Disaster were only a level apart, the gap between those two wasn’t something that could be complemented with ordinary means.

Right now, Luo Li was endlessly close to the Sovereign Realm, which also meant that she was basically invincible beneath the Sovereign Realm. This sort of strength could make one an Elder of some Spiritual Academies.

Xue Tianhe was startled in his heart as well. No wonder I was suppressed. Luo Li’s strength is so powerful to such an extent. Although they had also gone through the Third Grade Spiritual Disaster, Luo Li surpassed them by a huge gap.

“Originally, I wanted to leave you to Mu Chen to deal with. But now, I feel that you’re not even qualified to be his opponent.” Luo Li said with a faint tone.

The smile on Ji Xuan’s face seemed to freeze a little at this moment as the corner of his lips twitched. His charming face also turned ferocious as he stared at Luo Li, as if he wanted to devour her. Clearly, the latter’s words had given him a huge impact to the point that he could not maintain his poker face.

“You’re saying that I’m not qualified to be that loser’s opponent, who had lost to me time and time again?”

Ji Xuan deeply inhaled a mouthful of air as his face distorted. An eerie laughter seeped from his mouth as he slightly shook his head. “Deceiving others and deceiving oneself isn’t a good feeling. If he is that capable, then he should be the one saying that, but it’s a pity that… he doesn’t have that qualification.”

Luo Li wasn’t enraged from his words, but had a smile instead. That smile of hers startled innumerable people as she slowly lifted the Luo God Sword in her hand. “It’s not up to you to decide if he has that qualification. Bring out your true ability, if your trump card is only the Soul Essence of the Primordial Skydragon Hawk, then I’ll be a little too disappointed.”

Ji Xuan’s distorted face gradually calmed down as he took a deep glance at Luo Li and slowly shut his eyes. He slowly spread his arms as an indifferent voice resonated in the sky.

“Since you are asking for it, then… let me fulfil your request.”

“I will show you which one of us isn’t qualified to become the other party’s opponent.”

Boom!

When Ji Xuan finished his last word, everyone could sense a dreadful power that surpassed the boundary of Spirit Disaster sweep from Ji Xuan’s body like a hurricane.

That instant, everyone’s faces changed.
