Chapter 1025: Chapter 1022: Summer Thunder Falling from the Sky Blade, An Unexpected Person
"So fast!"
Faced with the incoming red glow, a thought flashed through Lin Hongyi’s mind, and her skin tingled slightly from the terrifying explosive power contained within the saber glow.
Buzz!
In an instant, Lin Hongyi’s entire body emitted a glaze-colored brilliance, her pupils bursting with dazzling golden light, as she unleashed a simple yet direct punch.
"Mountain Split Style!"
A simple punch, yet its momentum was exceptionally fierce, with shadows of mountains appearing on her glove, causing the air ahead to collapse and emit a sound like a crumbling peak.
Clang!
The glove smashed hard against the saber’s edge, a muffled thunder echoed through the hall, and a vast area of the ground cracked and sank.
"Withdraw!"
Luo Feng’s mind moved, and Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber returned to his hand. Lin Hongyi couldn’t stop her body from retreating, forced back more than ten steps by the powerful force.
Woosh...
Stopping her retreat, Lin Hongyi raised her head, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise, "What an impressive Drawing Saber Technique!"
Though her cultivation was not as advanced as Luo Feng’s, the Cultivation Techniques from Yuangang Hall focused on defense, and Luo Feng hadn’t fully exerted his strength with that saber strike, yet she nearly failed to defend against it.
Of course, she hadn’t unleashed her full strength either; otherwise, the outcome between them would be hard to predict.
Luo Feng sheathed the saber, "You’re good too. If I’m not mistaken, what you just used was Yuangang Hall’s Golden Jade God Form Skill."
"Indeed, it’s the Golden Jade God Form Skill."
Lin Hongyi nodded slightly with a smile, "And that’s thanks to the Blood Saber Demon General’s head you gave me."
The Mountain Cave Body Tempering Gang she had previously cultivated was merely the precursor to the Golden Jade God Form Skill, with limited power. By obtaining the Blood Saber Demon General’s head from Luo Feng, she was able to exchange it for the complete Golden Jade God Form Skill, making her much stronger than before.
"Haha, you’re both exceptional."
The Red Blood Elder nodded slightly, his gaze filled with admiration.
The saber technique Luo Feng demonstrated was first-rate in both speed and power, particularly the intent realm akin to ’spring rain quietly falling’, which was even more terrifying. The attack speed seemed swift, yet it gave the illusion of being unhurried, causing any careless enemy to pay a heavy, regrettable price.
As for Lin Hongyi, her eyes capable of emitting golden light indicated that her Golden Jade God Form Skill was likely at the ninth level. If she reached the tenth level, achieving the Gold and Jade Colored Glaze Body, her strength would be greatly enhanced.
Moreover, with his keen eyes, he could see that within Lin Hongyi lurked a force even more formidable than the Gold and Jade Colored Glaze Body. If unleashed, even with Luo Feng’s slightly superior cultivation, victory would be uncertain.
"Being so young yet able to cultivate such power, among the hundred countries, only a few are capable. She must have a distinguished mentor to achieve such accomplishments. I wonder what her background is."
Looking at Lin Hongyi, many thoughts passed through Red Blood Elder’s mind.
Luo Feng noticed Red Blood Elder’s prolonged silence and couldn’t help but ask:
"Senior Diao, does the person possess the incomplete saber technique that I’ve been cultivating?"
Upon hearing this, the Red Blood Elder nodded.
"It shouldn’t be wrong. The first move of your cultivated saber technique carries an intent realm akin to ’spring rain quietly falling’, killing silently. Judging by the power, it’s likely a high-grade Earth-level saber technique; the incomplete part he has is the second move, called Summer Thunder Falling from the Sky Saber, characterized by its fierce power. I judge it to be a high-grade Earth-level saber technique too. Since this incomplete saber technique is named Four Symbols, it should correspond to the four seasons: ’spring wind’, ’summer thunder’, ’autumn rain’, ’winter snow’. You and his incomplete parts should be the first and second moves of the saber technique secret manual."
Upon hearing this, Luo Feng was delighted; the trip to Big Market City indeed proved fruitful. He found more information about other incomplete parts of the saber technique. More surprising was that this Four Symbols Saber Technique turned out to be a high-grade Earth-level saber technique, far exceeding his expectations.
"Senior, where is that person now?" Luo Feng suppressed his inner excitement and hurriedly asked.
"He is inside the Business Alliance Hall."
The Red Blood Elder was quite satisfied with Luo Feng’s calm attitude when encountering matters and continued, "A high-grade Earth-level martial arts secret manual is a rare opportunity, even if it only includes the first two moves and isn’t complete, its power is greater than most lower-grade Earth-level martial arts. You mustn’t miss this chance. However, purchasing the incomplete secret manual from him won’t be easy."
Luo Feng frowned slightly, "Why? The incomplete manual he holds only contains the second move; it’s not of much use to him."
"That’s true. But the man is unscrupulous, and since you’re eager for the incomplete manual, he likely won’t part with it easily, possibly demanding a considerable price."
Luo Feng chuckled lightly, "I lack secret manuals, not Yuan Stones."
To him, wealth was merely extrinsic; only personal strength mattered.
With sufficient strength, wealth would come readily. This principle, he understood clearly.
"This Four Symbols Saber Technique’s intent realm is extraordinary, even among high-grade Earth-level saber techniques; it stands out. Though incomplete, its value should range between 1.5 million to 2.5 million second-grade Yuan Stones. If your Yuan Stones are insufficient, I can lend you some first." The Red Blood Elder said.
Luo Feng shook his head, "No need, I think I have enough."
The Red Blood Elder nodded, refrained from speaking further, and clapped his hands as a beautiful maid gracefully came in.
"Please escort them to the thirteenth number of the Xuan character VIP section." The Red Blood Elder instructed.
"Yes."
The beautiful maid nodded slightly and respectfully said to Luo Feng and Lin Hongyi, "Please follow me."
"Senior, we’ll take our leave then."
Luo Feng bowed to the Red Blood Elder and left with the beautiful maid.
In the luxurious and spacious auction hall, an auction was underway.
Though the auction items were not as prestigious as those at the Business Alliance event, they were still rare treasures, with excitement in the room surging higher and higher.
Along the way, Lin Hongyi said to Luo Feng, "Luo Feng, according to Senior Diao, if this incomplete manual requires two million second-grade Yuan Stones, the price could double if the seller intentionally raises it."
She worried Luo Feng might not have enough Yuan Stones, potentially missing this opportunity. High-grade Earth-level martial arts are not easily obtained by anyone.
Having nothing to hide from Lin Hongyi, Luo Feng openly said:
"Don’t worry, I have eight million second-grade Yuan Stones on me, even if he triples the price, it’s more than enough."
Lin Hongyi was momentarily stunned; she knew Luo Feng was wealthy but hadn’t expected him to be this wealthy. Eight million second-grade Yuan Stones—some seasoned True Yuan Realm experts don’t possess such fortune.
"That should be enough. However, these details are best kept to yourself. Holding wealth unfairly earned invites trouble, and many have lost their lives over it."
Luo Feng smiled faintly, "I know that much. Do you intend to rob me?"
Lin Hongyi’s eyes shifted slightly, and she smiled, radiating elegance, "Even if I have such intentions, I might not have the capability."
"Is that so?"
Luo Feng looked at Lin Hongyi meaningfully. He’s always seen her as someone not simple, and the Red Blood Elder’s comments earlier only deepened that feeling.
"Here is the thirteenth number of the Xuan character VIP section."
The guiding beautiful maid suddenly stopped; ahead was a booth separated by a landscape screen, with a purple sandalwood table laid with refreshments and fruits, behind which was a chair made of Demon Beast skin.
A middle-aged man sat boldly on the chair, eating snacks while watching the auction on the stage.
It’s him... freewebnøvel.com
Upon seeing the middle-aged man in the VIP booth, Luo Feng’s eyes flickered.
The middle-aged man wore fine clothes, had stern brows and a dreadful gaze, and beside him was a five-foot saber emitting a faint blood glow, exuding a sharp presence. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
