Invincible Martial King

At the beginning of the battle, he was still clamoring about wanting to teach Lu Chen a lesson. He just didn't expect that Lu Chen would be chased around like a rat, and now that the dignified senior direct disciple was in such a situation, who knew how many people would laugh at him if word of it got out.    

    

Zhang Qiang's heart sank to the bottom, but fury and fighting spirit surged towards the sky. Seeing Lu Chen charge at him again, Zhang Qiang's face darkened as a strong burst of soul power surged out.    

    

The giant palm appeared again, but compared to before, there were countless black runes woven on its surface. The aura it was emitting made many of the direct disciples feel their scalps go numb.    

    

The giant palm was pitch black, covering the sky and covering the earth. It was imposing and unstoppable.    

    

Zhang Qiang used power that exceeded his limit in this strike. The Martial Spirit in his body revolved crazily, continuously channeling the soul power refined by the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth into the huge palm.    

    

From afar, it looked like a black mountain.    

    

The aura it emitted was vast and profound, causing the disciples' scalps to tingle. If they were in Lin Ming's shoes, their bodies would have already become so stiff that they would not be able to move.    

    

"Hu hu!"    

    

Terrifying force constantly compressed the air, producing a sharp whistling sound.    

    

The giant palm that seemed to be moving at a slow pace suppressed down almost instantaneously. Strong and vigorous energy fluctuations practically caused the entire arena to be razed to the ground.    

    

Facing Zhang Qiang's hysterical attack, Lu Chen smiled faintly. His expression became more confident and at ease. His five fingers casually clenched as his fist suddenly smashed down from below.    

    

"Crack!"    

    

The moment the fist that was the size of an ant approached the giant palm, it exploded with endless power like a volcano. In almost the blink of an eye, the giant palm that covered the sky was shattered into pieces.    

    

"He blocked Senior Brother Zhang's full-power attack with one punch."    

    

Everyone looked at Lu Chen in shock, so much so that their jaws almost fell to the ground.    

    

Zhang Qiang's body trembled and his expression became uncertain. He finally recognized the reality. This guy's sudden increase in strength after breaking through was too terrifying. It made people's hearts tremble.    

    

"Buzz!"    

    

The light from his fist shattered the huge palm and it charged towards Zhang Qiang without slowing down at all.    

    

Boom!    

    

Under everyone's astonished gaze, Ye Zichen directly punched Zhang Qiang.    

    

In a split-second, a faint layer of First Heavenly Dipper Qi enveloped Zhang Qiang, neutralizing a large portion of the violent energy. Even so, Zhang Qiang still staggered back as his face paled. Clearly, he had suffered quite a blow.    

    

"Crack!"    

    

The ground exploded. Lu Chen shot over like a cannonball, like a giant beast that had just awoken from hibernation. With a cold and dangerous aura, he punched towards Zhang Qiang's chest.    

    

"I really didn't expect that I would be forced to such a state." Although Zhang Qiang suffered some injuries, he did not lose his composure. Instead, his aura became even colder.    

    

Without waiting for the disciples to respond, he suddenly formed a seal with his hands. The terrifying speed at which he made the seal only allowed part of his afterimage to be seen.    

    

Lu Chen frowned and his body became even more violent. In almost an instant, he appeared in front of Zhang Qiang. His fist tore through the air as if he wanted to tear through everything in his way.    

    

This punch was incomparably ferocious!    

    

"Buzz!"    

    

Suddenly, just as the fist was about to land on Zhang Qiang, a green and gold intertwined flame appeared out of thin air. The flame was like a substance as it shot into the sky. In almost an instant, it easily blocked Lu Chen's incomparably violent fist.    

    

The flame roared, pulsing like a heart, steady and strong. It circled in front of Zhang Qiang, green and gold flames constantly intertwined, emitting a sizzling sound, and a terrifying temperature spread in all directions. With the stage as the center, the temperature rose by dozens of degrees.    

    

The hard and solid ground was unable to withstand the high temperature as it melted under the erosion of the flames. It turned into magma at a speed visible to the naked eye and started to flow in all directions.    

    

Zhang Qiang stared at Lu Chen with his sharp eyes, without any expression on his face. Thanks to the fierce flames, he was like a god revived from the flames, filled with an aura of destruction and violence. When he was placed in the depths of the flames, not only did he not face any danger, even the soul power in his body started to increase by a large amount.    

    

"High-grade cultivation method, Nine Heavens Fire Controlling Technique. He really succeeded in cultivating it!" Aside from the Unparalleled Spell, there were also a few other powerful cultivation techniques. Amongst them, the Nine Heavens Imperial Flame Technique was the most powerful, but the more powerful the cultivation technique, the more difficult it was to comprehend. Even she and Yun Canghai had not completely mastered it, but it was actually successfully cultivated by Zhang Qiang.    

    

"Junior Sister Zhao, it seems like the outcome of this competition is not too surprising. The Nine Heavens Fire Technique has six times the increase. Even Junior Brother Lu is not a match for Junior Zhang after breaking through one after another."    

    

Yun Canghai smiled as he gazed at the two people on the stage.    

    

"Hmph, now is not the time to lightly come to a conclusion." Zhao Menger said plainly after taking a glance. Her eyes were filled with expectation when she looked at Lu Chen.    

    

While the two of them were talking, the two people on the stage had calmed down. They were facing each other with a distance of ten meters between them. Neither of them took the initiative to attack, and the atmosphere became even more tense and tense.    

    

Looking at the green and gold intertwined on Zhang Qiang's body, Lu Chen keenly sensed the dangerous aura. This flame seemed to be not simple, if he was not mistaken, the energy of his fist light did not disappear, it seemed to have been devoured by the flames.    

    

Boom!    

    

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Chen made his move. The huge Fist Shadow filled the air, causing the air to explode. At the same time, he stomped his foot and his figure disappeared from where he stood. He reappeared behind Zhang Qiang's back with a lightning speed.    

    

Facing Lu Chen's attack, Zhang Qiang sneered. Both of his hands formed a seal, and green-gold flames suddenly spiraled upwards, sweeping through the energy fluctuation of the Fist Shadow in front of them as if they were rotten weeds. At the same time, a line of fire suddenly appeared behind Zhang Qiang, aimed at Lu Chen's throat, and swept across.    

    

"Buzz."    

    

The line of fire was like a blade, cutting through the void and creating ripples.    

    

Lu Chen's eyes flashed. He suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled with force. He only felt a violent rubbing sound coming from his palm. The thin line of fire was extremely tough and it emitted a strange fluctuation when it was strangled by Lu Chen's palm.    

    

"This is …"    

    

Lu Chen felt that the soul power in his body was greatly affected, as it was instantly absorbed by less than half of that faint flame and was replenished by soul power. The originally hair-thin soul energy suddenly soared up, forming a flaming giant wall that engulfed Lu Chen.
