Mortal Alchemy

The two were incredibly fast, leaving afterimages, making it difficult for many to see the details of their fight.

Many people were dumbfounded: "This kind of power, and they're still in the Foundation Establishment stage?"

"This is clearly a battle of Third-Order cultivators!"

This statement wasn't wrong; Chen Ping and Tie Xinyuan both possessed the power of Third-Order body cultivators.

Chen Ping had also fought his way up through battles and schemes. When fighting Tie Xinyuan, he didn't fall behind.

However, after exchanging over a hundred blows, both of them were bruised and injured.

Bai Jianjia, watching the battle from the floating island, frowned: "Junior Brother, what exactly are you trying to do?"

"If you comprehend Sword Steel Condensing Asperity, you'll quickly be able to determine victory against Tie Xinyuan!"

"Even if you don't use Sword Steel Condensing Asperity, you should at least wear the Qianlong Armor!"

She had given Chen Ping a Violet Firmament Sword and a Qianlong Armor, which were considered Chen Ping's trump cards, unknown to outsiders. Chen Ping had only been using the Aurora Sword to face his opponent.

The intensity of Chen Ping's fight with Tie Xinyuan was such that a single sword wound was shocking even to Golden Core experts.

...

"Drip!"

Fresh blood flowed from both Chen Ping and Tie Xinyuan.

Their Daoist robes were already tattered.

Chen Ping used a sword qi armor at the level of Sword Qi Forged into Steel. When Tie Xinyuan struck with a sword, he could shatter his armor, but the sword qi wouldn't dissipate.

Tie Xinyuan's body was surging with lightning arcs, like heavenly tribulation lightning, which was equally tricky. When Chen Ping used Myriad Manifestations Chasing the Current, stabbing Tie Xinyuan, thousands of sword qi suddenly concentrated and erupted at one point, it could also break through Tie Xinyuan's lightning arcs and injure him.

However, both of them were Third-Order body cultivators, and these injuries were not to be feared.

Chen Ping's battle with Tie Xinyuan was also a process of sharpening his sword and improving his understanding of the Sword Dao: "So, the Sword Dao can be used in this way..."

Tie Xinyuan was also shocked by Chen Ping's attainments in the Sword Dao. Chen Ping's attainments in the Sword Dao vaguely surpassed his, putting him under considerable pressure.

As fellow sword cultivators, facing such a formidable enemy, both of them were going all out.

However, Chen Ping still had to reserve his trump cards and buy time.

One day... two days... three days...

The two had not yet determined a winner.

But the injuries on their bodies were already shocking, with bones clearly visible and flesh torn open, it was extremely tragic.

"Huff! Huff! Huff!" Chen Ping gasped for breath, the hand holding the sword was trembling slightly, and his movements seemed somewhat difficult.

However, this was all an act. As long as he was willing, he could immediately activate his essence blood to heal his injuries.

Right now, he was just using essence blood to stabilize his injuries, so that others wouldn't see any flaws and think he was still holding on.

Tie Xinyuan was also panting like a bull, with fresh blood flowing down. Both of them had already fought to become blood-soaked men.

Tie Xinyuan's eyes were filled with satisfaction:

"Uncle-Master Chengping, you are indeed powerful. After fighting so fiercely for three days, we still haven't determined a winner."

Chen Ping gasped for breath and pretended to say:

"A worthy opponent. This battle is without regrets, Nephew Tie, but our battle should be coming to an end soon."

"Not bad." Tie Xinyuan's eyes revealed excitement:

"Uncle-Master Chengping, let us carry this battle of sword cultivators to the end. No matter the outcome, it won't leave anyone feeling regret!"

The corners of Chen Ping's mouth twitched slightly. The sword cultivators of the Demon Subduing Sect were truly too pure, all with such a state of mind. No wonder the Demon Subduing Sect's casualties were consistently high.

Above the floating island.

Realist Changkong nodded slightly, with a look of gratification in his eyes: "Both are pure sword cultivators, this battle can be called wonderful."

"This battle is about to come to an end."

Realist Ningguang looked puzzled: "Junior Brother Chengping has already comprehended Sword Steel Condensing Asperity, why doesn't he use it?"

"Alas..." Realist Changkong waved his hand and said: "Xinyuan said when he came on stage that Junior Brother Chengping also takes the path of physical body sword cultivation, and should fight with pure Sword Dao power."

"Using Sword Dao Intent power would ruin the purity of the sword cultivator."

Realist Ningguang felt a little strange, but nodded slightly. Senior Brother Changkong's words were not without reason.

On the viewing platform of the arena, Luo Daoliu's face was gloomy: "This Chen Ping, his strength has actually improved again, and he hasn't used Sword Steel Condensing Asperity even after fighting until now..."

He simulated it in his mind. If he were to face Chen Ping here, his chances of winning would be less than 20%.

Ling Xiao looked at the battle on the arena with regret: "What a pity... Junior Brother Chengping is a pure sword cultivator..."

Pure sword cultivators can't survive in the Eastern Xuan Sect.

Gu Hong sat upright on the White Jade Treasure Ship, his face full of resentment: "With his strength, I really can't beat him!"

"But so what? Once the battle for the Nascent Soul seed is over, it will be his death!"

Shi Feilan's eternally icy beautiful eyes flickered slightly:

"Such combat power is indeed worthy of the sect investing so much in him. I hope he can change his mind in time and join the Myriad Desires Pavilion..."

On the stage.

The battle continued.

The fourth day... the fifth day... the sixth day...

Six days had passed.

The battle on the stage had not yet ended.

Chen Ping and Tie Xinyuan were both seriously injured, to the point where they had to use their swords as crutches and were trembling all over.

Everyone could see that these two people had reached the end of their rope.

After fighting to this point, neither side had admitted defeat.

This made people look moved: "This is the sword cultivator..."

"Cough cough..." Chen Ping coughed up blood and said with difficulty:

"Nephew Tie, how much longer can you last?"

Tie Xinyuan's face was pale, and he barely squeezed out a smile, his eyes still extremely fierce: "A thousand more moves are not a problem!"

"Uncle-Master Chengping, can you still make a hundred moves?"

He was strong on the outside but weak on the inside, but he was still putting on a brave face and acting cheap.

A sword cultivator will not bow their head and admit defeat until the moment of death.

Chen Ping sighed inwardly: "Is this the pure sword cultivator..."

Fortunately, he wasn't a pure sword cultivator.

"Then let's fight again!" Chen Ping's body emitted a green light, and at the same time, the Dharma Body Sword Aspect flew out.

Since the power of the physical body had been exhausted, it was time to use spiritual power sword moves.

The two had been fighting for six days, using very little spiritual power, and had been fighting in close combat with their physical bodies.

"Spiritual power battle, should be able to drag on for another three days?" Chen Ping thought.

In terms of endurance and tenacity, Chen Ping believed that he would not lose to anyone!

He had crawled out of so many hells, what was this in front of him?

It wasn't even a wind or frost, at most it was a calculation.

Seeing Chen Ping abandon close combat and start fighting with sword moves to determine the winner.

The pale smile on Tie Xinyuan's face grew stronger: "Good, it's time to truly determine the winner!"

"Sword Lotus Transformation Array..."

The Aurora Sword transformed into extreme speed, flying to Tie Xinyuan's face, and lotus petals appeared.

Chen Ping didn't use the power of Sword Asperity, otherwise he would have instantly killed Tie Xinyuan with one move. How else would he buy time?

A green lotus appeared, covering Tie Xinyuan, and then sword qi erupted within the green lotus.

Tie Xinyuan's screams didn't sound, instead the green light dissipated somewhat, and lightning arcs bloomed inside.

Tie Xinyuan's forced voice sounded: "Uncle-Master Chengping, your sword move is not good, are you tickling me?"

"Eat my move!"

"Thunder Serpent!"

The green lotus exploded, and a thunder and lightning serpent-shaped sword qi rushed out from within, pouncing towards Chen Ping.

Chen Ping smiled, that's right!

Nephew Tie, you can accompany me for a few more days!
