Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

Li Guanqi, standing on the stage, could barely suppress the grin beneath his mask...

"Damn it, no wonder some people love showing off..."

"It really does feel good..."

For a moment, all eyes were focused on Li Guanqi.

The shouts were deafening, and some of the older members of the clan who hadn't heard of Li Guanqi's exploits were completely bewildered.

Ran Shiming smiled slightly, such a prodigy was indeed a rare sight.

The aura he was currently displaying alone was extraordinary.

Killing someone across realms... there were only a handful of people in the Ten Territories who could do that.

Li Guanqi exhaled a breath of turbid air, his expression beneath the mask gradually becoming solemn.

Li Guanqi didn't draw his sword, but instead, with a wave of his hand, he summoned a thunder spear formed from surging immortal energy!

Holding the spear in both hands, Li Guanqi adopted a starting stance, and his entire demeanor underwent a complete transformation!!

The spear is the king of all weapons, good for both offense and defense.

In ordinary duels and battles, spear cultivators rely on the length advantage of their weapon, giving them a great advantage.

Sword cultivators find it difficult to get close and are constantly suppressed by the spear.

Li Guanqi felt this deeply when he challenged Dragon侯 in the Seven Regions.

The spear can be like a staff, every strike, smash, and sweep filled with immense power.

On the stage, Ran Qingshuang's expression changed as soon as she saw Li Guanqi's spear stance!

Whether it was his posture or his aura, he didn't look like a sword cultivator at all!!

He looked more like an experienced spear master.

What Ran Qingshuang didn't know was that Li Guanqi, like Qi Sha, was proficient in all eighteen weapons.

Ran Shiming narrowed his eyes, his gaze gradually becoming serious.

Li Guanqi's aura... was not much weaker than his precious daughter's.

The two locked eyes, and the surrounding clamor seemed to fade away.

Ran Qingshuang slightly rotated her wrists while holding the spear, her figure disappearing from the spot like a startled swan!

Clang!!!

A booming sound rang out, and two afterimages were seen clashing in the arena, the tips of their spears colliding in mid-air.

Li Guanqi pulled back his spear and smashed it down, but the woman raised her spear to block.

Clang!!

Ran Qingshuang's arms went numb from the block, Li Guanqi's strength was extraordinary.

Grasping the spear tightly, he swept it horizontally towards her face!

The two exchanged blows fiercely, Li Guanqi's every strike aimed at a vital point, his movements were broad and unrestrained, yet without any flaws!

On the contrary, Ran Qingshuang was actually suppressed by Li Guanqi's spear momentum!!

Li Guanqi's spear moved like a dragon, its light as dense as rain, giving his opponent no chance to breathe.

However, at that moment, Li Guanqi's voice suddenly reached the woman's ears.

"The warm-up is over, let's get down to business..."

Ran Qingshuang was slightly stunned.

"Warm-up?"

Clang clang clang clang!!! Bang!!!!

A spear struck the side of Ran Qingshuang's spear, sending her flying back dozens of feet.

Her feet carved two deep grooves into the stage, the blue bricks on the ground flipped up, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.

However, at that moment, Li Guanqi's aura underwent a complete transformation!!

In an instant, the wind and clouds surged above the Ran mansion, and lightning crackled!!

Rumble!!

The deafening roar was like the beating of war drums.

Li Guanqi's right arm was covered in dragon scales, and it suddenly swelled in size.

Li Guanqi's mind flashed back to the scene of Dragon 侯 destroying the Underworld River with a single spear strike...

One spear leveled the Underworld River!

Buzz!!!!

Li Guanqi was surrounded by a fierce spear aura.

He lowered the spear behind him, gripped the spear shaft tightly with his right hand, and slightly rotated his wrist inward to generate force.

The stage trembled incessantly, and everyone's expression was stern as they watched this scene with solemn eyes.

Ran Qingshuang held the spear with both hands, the spear body glowing with a blue light, and a spiritual mark appeared between her eyebrows.

She was forced to use the power of her spirit body just because of Li Guanqi's aura!!

Suddenly!!!!

Li Guanqi shouted loudly, and the clouds in the sky were suddenly split open!!!

"Ah!!!"

Li Guanqi strode forward, and the platform under his left foot suddenly cracked with him as the center.

The thunder spear shook the heavens, and he swung it down with full force!

The spear's momentum was terrifying, Ran Qingshuang felt as if a giant axe was falling on her head.

The sharp spear aura tore her robe, and the powerful pressure, along with an indescribable sense of oppression, descended.

Ran Qingshuang's face was pale, but her calloused hands gripped the spear and moved!!

"Moon Frost Mountain Piercing Spear!"

The spear surged with boundless immortal energy, and she thrust it out!!!

Boom!!!!!!

A violent roar erupted, and the entire Ran family mountain shook, dust flying everywhere.

Everyone involuntarily turned their attention to the high platform.

At this moment, the Ran family disciples seemed to have forgotten that Li Guanqi was a sword cultivator.

Such a spear technique even contained intent within it!!

On the stage, Ran Shiming stood in front of his daughter, catching Li Guanqi's spear strike with one hand.

Ran Qingshuang stood there with a pale face and a dazed expression.

Li Guanqi's palm and tiger's mouth were cracked, he dispersed the thunder spear and shrugged.

Ran Shiming's gaze towards Li Guanqi changed again and again, and he actually bowed slightly to Li Guanqi.

"Thank you for your guidance, young friend."

Li Guanqi took off his mask, cupped his fist, and returned the greeting.

"Senior, you don't need to do this."

As he spoke, Li Guanqi inscribed all the insights from that spear strike into a blank jade slip and threw it to Ran Qingshuang.

The woman blankly took the jade slip, swept it with her divine sense, knew what was inside, and her eyes revealed gratitude.

She eagerly asked, "What is the name of this spear technique?"

Li Guanqi thought for a moment.

"I don't know what it's called, but... perhaps it could be called Leveling River."

Ran Qingshuang murmured the words 'Leveling River' with bright eyes.

Ran Shiming was shocked, he never expected Li Guanqi's strength to be so terrifying.

Not only him, but even the surrounding disciples were shocked.

The splendor of that spear strike left an indelible impression in their hearts.

Many disciples who practiced the spear suddenly gained insight and quickly left.

Ran Shiming couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth when he saw this scene.

"Young friend's talent is truly indescribable, clearly a sword cultivator, yet his spear technique is so superb."

"It's hard to imagine what kind of demeanor your elders would have."

Li Guanqi smiled and said nothing, the man spoke.

"Come, let's go to the hall and sit down and rest."

Li Guanqi didn't refuse, and along the way, Ran Qingshuang kept asking about the details and insights of that spear strike.

Li Guanqi wasn't stingy and guided her one by one.

In the woman's eyes, she was only fascinated by the splendor of that spear strike.

"Does young friend have a place to stay in the Immortal Realm?"

Li Guanqi smiled when he heard this while sitting in the chair.

"Yes, I do."

Ran Shiming understood this and said with some regret.

"What a pity..."

After that, the few of them chatted, their words full of wanting to win over Li Guanqi.

After Li Guanqi explicitly refused, Ran Shiming no longer talked about this topic.

"Is young friend passing by Yongjiang City?"

"Sort of, I have something to do and need to wait a few days before I can leave."

"Oh? Could it be that young friend is also here for the auction in two days?"

Li Guanqi put down his teacup and nodded slightly.

Ran Shiming smiled: "I didn't expect young friend to also be here for those few immortal ores, quite wealthy indeed."

Li Guanqi's eyes flickered.

"Uh... could it be that senior is looking for the ores at the auction?"

Ran Shiming said frankly: "Yes, Qingshuang's spear is too low in grade, and there happens to be a very suitable ore."

Li Guanqi touched his nose upon hearing this, took out the list the auction house gave him, and pointed.

"Which one?"

"I'll have Myriad Treasures Pavilion send it over directly, why bother going through so much trouble."

Ran Shiming looked at Li Guanqi in surprise, his mouth slightly open.

"Young friend... you mean..."

"Yes, these few immortal ores are all placed in Myriad Treasures Pavilion by me, no need to go through so much trouble."
