Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword-Chapter 94 - The Unfair Battle

The decree spoke highly of Shangguan Qi, noting his exceptional talent that should not be wasted in the Beast Fighting Arena, allowing him to redeem his crimes through meritorious deeds for the country.

That’s it for Zhou Heng for sure!

Never mind Shangguan Qi’s strength; with an expert of the Land Cleaving Third Layer Heaven presiding, would Zhou Heng dare to kill Shangguan Qi?

In a battle to the death, if one harbors reservations, how could they fight with all their might?

Besides, Kill All Directions is not something to take lightly!

Zuo Hongchen, full of arrogance, swept his gaze over everyone present and impatiently said, “Why hasn’t it begun yet?

Hurry and let my disciple kill that man, then follow me back to the Imperial Capital!”

Dominating and imperious!

In his eyes, Zhou Heng was merely livestock for the slaughter, hardly worth mentioning, to be dispatched with a flick of the wrist, less than an ant!

Under the intimidation of the Land Cleaving Third Layer Heaven expert, even the Beast Fighting Arena, owned by Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, dared not disobey, especially since its strongest member here was only Liu Chengjun of the Initial Separation Realm.

“Ladies and gentlemen, the much-anticipated great battle is about to begin.

Please open your eyes wide and enjoy this fierce showdown to the fullest!” The host of the Beast Fighting Arena hurriedly announced, instructing them to open the gates on both sides.

Zhou Heng stepped forward.

Although he had not seen Zuo Hongchen before, he missed not a single word said by the latter.

Anger surged in his heart, his expression solemn.

The heart of the Martial Path must not waver.

Shangguan Qi he must kill, even with Zuo Hongchen by his side!

He had already decided this; if he abandoned the fight now, his martial heart would fall, and who knows if it might remain dormant forever after.

A martial artist knows no fear.

The path to the peak is inevitably filled with countless dangers and crises.

If one is afraid, how can they advance?

On the other side, Shangguan Qi also appeared.

This was a very fair-looking young man.

Although martial artists age much slower after reaching the Spirit Gathering Realm, and there are potions to preserve youth, judging a person’s age by their appearance was no longer reliable.

But, Shangguan Qi was indeed only twenty-two years old!

He looked like any normal young person, scholarly, even somewhat delicate, yet when Zhou Heng saw his eyes, he could no longer harbor such thoughts.

Maddened!

That was the only feeling Zhou Heng had.

It seemed a demon lurked within that frail body, ready at any moment to pounce out and annihilate everything!

“Master!” Shangguan Qi respectfully performed a salute towards Zuo Hongchen, “Disciple hasn’t seen the master in two years!”

“Hahaha, quickly kill that whelp!” Zuo Hongchen pointed distantly at Zhou Heng, a heavy pressure descending.

Zhou Heng immediately grimaced, a trickle of blood leaking from the corner of his mouth.

“Brother Zuo, isn’t this a bit inappropriate?” Yan Pingsong sternly said, his voice filled with anger.

As the foremost figure among Tianheng’s Nine Peaks and not the greatest expert in Tianhang City, he still held in his hands the power of the vast Sea Mountain Sect.

How could he be compared to a loose cultivator?

“Inappropriate, what’s inappropriate?” Zuo Hongchen shrilled, “Don’t tell me I can’t kill even a young boy from the Spirit Gathering Second Layer Heaven, let alone Land Cleaving Realm, I’ll kill if I wish to!”

This statement was a bit too much.

Suddenly, several terrifying presences emerged in the Beast Fighting Arena, striking towards Zuo Hongchen.

—Though Zuo Hongchen was the strongest, a Land Cleaving Third Layer Heaven martial artist at most could fend off five from the second layer.

With no fewer than thirty Land Cleaving Realm martial artists in Tianheng’s Nine Peaks, they were enough to wear him down to death!

Of course, a direct confrontation would surely lead to mutual destruction.

Unless absolutely necessary, no one would want to start such a conflict.

“Haha, remember, I belong to Poisonous Blood Sect.

Do you really want to be enemies with me?” Zuo Hongchen coldly laughed, his eyes scanning around.

Immediately, those several presences receded, seemingly full of fear of the Poisonous Blood Sect.

Even Yan Pingsong sighed and spoke no further.

One man, had dominated the entire Tianhang City!

“Master, please leave this boy to your disciple!

My Boiling Blood Technique has attained great achievement, perfect for sacrificing this young whelp!” Shangguan Qi loudly declared, his tone brimming with confidence and pride.

“The Boiling Blood Technique has achieved great success?

Haha, good disciple.

Your two years here have not been in vain!

Once the Boiling Blood Technique reaches great achievement, your cultivation level will surge.

Within a hundred years, you might break through to the Heaven-Opening Realm!” Zuo Hongchen laughed loudly.

Master and disciple completely disregarded the tens of thousands of people present!

Too arrogant!

This is Tianhang City after all!

Moreover, Shangguan Qi remains a condemned prisoner.

He needs to survive this battle before he can be pardoned.

How can he be so insolent?

For a moment, everyone felt a stifled rage, wanting to shout yet unable to, suffering in silence!

It was as if the entire nation, weakened and bullied, had lost face for all!

Initially, most people wanted to see Kill All Directions mercilessly slaughter Zhou Heng, but now no one wanted Shangguan Qi to win, unanimously switching their support to Zhou Heng’s side.

However, how fearsome was Kill All Directions, and how could Zhou Heng possibly win?

Of course, there were those who took joy in calamity, such as Lv Sue and Liu Chengjun—they only wanted to see Zhou Heng die.

As for losing face, it was none of their concern; even the Land Cleaving experts had shrunk back!

“Enough talk, bring it on!” Zhou Heng said coldly, the only one brimming with confidence in himself, his intent to kill Shangguan Qi unwavering.

The Swift Cloud Radiant Step combined with the Nine Mystic Trial Tower emboldened him to go all out!

“If you wish to die, I’ll fulfill your wish!” Shangguan Qi moved forward briskly, closing in on Zhou Heng and throwing a punch that churned the wind and clouds, conjuring a boundless force.

Bang!

Zhou Heng faced him head-on and immediately slipped, getting blasted back ten feet!

In contrast, Shangguan Qi merely stepped back a foot and a half, his form wobbling but quickly stabilizing.

This guy’s Dantian space has reached more than four times that of an ordinary person!

Zhou Heng’s eyes narrowed, suddenly feeling an immense pressure.

It was his first encounter with such a monstrous person!

No wonder his opponent had gained the title of Kill All Directions; he was indeed extraordinary.

“Eh, this kid’s Dantian space is huge!” Zuo Hongchen naturally knew his disciple’s details, deducing from one strike how terrifying Zhou Heng’s potential was.

Murder flashed through the old monster’s eyes, “He must not be spared, kill him quickly!”

“Yes, Master!” Shangguan Qi flashed a deadly smile, raising his right hand high, its shimmer reflecting a bloody gleam in the sunlight, “Kid, how do you want to die?”

“I think it’s best if you go to hell!” Zhou Heng said lightly, pleased with such an opponent; he needed this!

“Ignorant!” Shangguan Qi snorted coldly, his figure swiftly moving, his right hand swinging out, creating a blood-red shadow that directly struck at Zhou Heng.

As he utilized the Swift Cloud Radiant Step, Zhou Heng effortlessly dodged without fully exerting the technique.

His waist’s long sword unsheathed, whoosh whoosh whoosh, nine sword shadows swept past, creating nine dark waterfalls, each one a yard wide and five yards long, furiously swirling towards Shangguan Qi.

This was no ordinary Flying Waterfall Sword Technique, but rather a fusion of the essence of thirty-six sword maneuvers into nine swords, drastically increasing its power!

The Flying Waterfall Sword Technique, originally an Upper Grade Human Level Martial Skill, had evolved to its rightful rank—Lower Grade Earth Level—after Zhou Heng revised it with the intent of the Sky-soaring Nine Forms.

Now, combining the thirty-six maneuvers into nine was enough to push the power of the Flying Waterfall Sword Technique to Middle Grade Earth Level.

This elevation in power almost allowed Zhou Heng to surpass a minor realm in battle power, immediately bridging the gap in strength between him and Shangguan Qi!

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Shangguan Qi continuously threw punches in defense, but ultimately not to full effect, as one sword waterfall pierced through his chest!

Whoosh!

The arena erupted with enthusiastic cheers, everyone roaring vehemently, using this as a way to vent the frustration in their hearts.

“Good!

Good!

Good!” Shangguan Qi coldly watched Zhou Heng, his expression icy and his murderous aura fierce, the torn part of his chest bubbling with bloodlight, healing at an incredibly fast rate, soon without a trace of a wound.

Such strong self-healing ability, it was uncertain if this was his Bloodline Power!

“I underestimated you!” Shangguan Qi said grimly, spreading his hands which instantly turned blood-red, “Now let me show you the Boiling Blood Technique I painstakingly cultivated for twelve years!”

“Blood River Vast Distance!”

He roared, shoo shoo shoo, his hands endlessly shot out blood-red shadows, like casting a net, sweeping towards Zhou Heng.

As Zhou Heng activated the Swift Cloud Radiant Step, he continuously shifted his movements gracefully amidst the blood light, dancing agilely as if on the edge of a blade, giving an impression of incredible agility.

As the blood light swept past, Zhou Heng stood proudly.

“Hehe, this is a bit unfair!” Zuo Hongchen suddenly said, lifting his right hand, bang bang bang, four dark cyan light columns suddenly appeared around Zhou Heng, paired in twos, forming four walls.

Zhou Heng threw a punch, but the light wall only trembled slightly, remaining intact.

This was a Confinement Cage set by a Third Layer Heaven Land Cleaving Expert.

Although it couldn’t last forever, with Zuo Hongchen continuously sustaining it with Spiritual Power as long as his power didn’t deplete, the cage could potentially last indefinitely.

“Too despicable!”

“Shameless!”

“That’s so unfair!”

Zhou Heng was renowned for his movement techniques, and this move essentially crippled much of his strength.

How could he continue this fight?

Murmurs of angry protests immediately arose from the stands.

“Shush!” Zuo Hongchen snorted coldly, his terrifying presence sweeping across, silencing the crowd instantly, no one daring to speak further.

“Now it’s fair, fight!” He said with a bizarre laugh.
