Chapter 269 Power Display
"Please enter the tenth stage, fifth contestant!"
Following the referee's announcement, Xiang Nan walked towards the arena, but he kept looking sideways at Yi Dong's back.
Could it be him?
Yi Dong was using the pure three-revolution Astral Qigong technique of the Nature's Nature Sect, making it impossible for Xiang Nan to determine whether Yi Dong was a black-clothed person or not.
However, the more troublesome part was that Xiang Nan did not know that the five black-clothed men had been sent to the Haoran Sect as mole.
Or was it that they had always been in the Haoran Sect and had been bribed by the Profound Sky Sect.
If it was the former, then they would definitely understand the Heavenly Profound Sect's cultivation method. This was easier to judge, but if it was the latter, it would be much more troublesome.
Of course, the former was the most likely because they had to "maintain" their status as disciples of the Heavenly Profound Sect. Otherwise, at most, it would be the Haoran Sect disciples who defeated the Haoran Sect disciples.
Xiang Nan thought about this quickly, but he didn't notice that the battle had already begun.
"Yi Dong does not possess the characteristics of the Heavenly Profound Sect's cultivation techniques. Perhaps they are prepared to wait until the late stage of the arena competition before revealing their identities."
"Xiang Nan, where are you looking?" A loud shout rang out, followed by a huge figure running towards Xiang Nan.
Only then did Xiang Nan turn around and face his opponent head-on.
Xiang Nan's opponent was a strong man who was about 2.1 meters tall. The strong man was naked and his muscles were tense. He was filled with a sense of strength.
Especially since this person's realm was very high, he was at the fifth level of the Origin Return Realm, the highest level of the tournament.
Xiang Nan was distracted just now and didn't notice which sect this strong man belonged to or what his name was.
At this moment, the burly man took large strides and ran towards Xiang Nan. At this moment, a burst of exclamation came from the scene.
Because as the strong man ran, there seemed to be a faint shadow of a tail behind him! The tail's shadow was like a snake's tail, reaching an astonishing length of five meters!
"Huh?" Xiang Nan's gaze narrowed as he casually drew out his huge saber and slashed it down at the strong man.
"Hahahaha!" The burly man laughed wildly, "This level of attack is simply not enough!"
The burly man suddenly crossed his hands and pushed his body towards Xiang Nan's giant saber.
In that instant, the strong man's arms suddenly shone with Yuan Qi, condensing into scales! Those scales were so exquisite that even patterns could be seen on the surface.
Clang!
Xiang Nan's greatsaber slashed into the strong man's arms, producing a metallic collision sound, and at the same time, a spark burst out.
This saber strike did not break through the strong man's defense at all, and the strong man was still running, using both of his arms to push the blade of the giant saber forward.
Xiang Nan was pushed backwards by the tremendous force, and his feet rubbed against the ground with two shallow scratches.
One had to know that the combat arena was made of "mixed earth crystal stones". It was used to forge expensive earth crystal stones that were known for their sturdiness. In addition, it was forged from three other ore materials. The strength of the arena was extremely high.
From this, it could be seen how shocking the strength of that strong man was.
Seeing that Xiang Nan was about to be pushed to the edge of the arena, once he fell, he would lose the qualifications to compete.
"Looks like Xiang Nan is having a hard time fighting." Shen Linhai and Feng Zhaoqi watched the battle from below the arena. Shen Linhai frowned slightly, "Although Xiang Nan is very strong, his weakness is also very clear. It is his realm."
No matter what, Xiang Nan was still only a third level Origin Realm martial artist. There was no denying that he had a natural disadvantage when fighting against a fifth level Origin Realm opponent.
"This kid." Feng Zhaoqi saw that Xiang Nan had already been pushed to the edge of the arena and would fall down half a meter away.
At this moment, Xiang Nan, who was sliding backwards, suddenly took a step back and stepped on the edge of the arena. His heels were already floating in the air.
The sturdy man's eyes already revealed the joy of victory.
However, the strength of Xiang Nan's kick was astonishing. After stepping on the edge of the arena, his body did not move back at all.
"Huh?" The sturdy man's eyes moved and he found that he could no longer push Xiang Nan, as if Xiang Nan's feet had taken root on land.
"Blazing Fire Sect?" Xiang Nan looked at the strong man calmly. He had already discovered the characteristics of the Blazing Fire Sect's cultivation technique.
The martial arts and techniques of the Blazing Fire Sect were mostly related to snakes. This could be seen from Wang Xiaoyun back then, but now, whether it was the long shadow of the snake tail behind the strong man or the snake scales on his arms, they all showed this point.
"Brat, you have good taste!" The burly man shouted, and the snake tail behind him lifted high into the air, and then landed on the ground with a loud boom!
This giant tail strike gave the burly man an instant's explosive charge!
The entire arena trembled violently.
He wanted to use this momentum to drive Xiang Nan out.
The audience became nervous and prayed in their hearts that Xiang Nan must not be eliminated in the first round of the arena competition.
"Haha, scram …" The burly man shouted. Originally, he wanted to say scram, but no matter what, he couldn't say the word "bar".
This was because when he used the power of the giant tail to push his power onto Xiang Nan's saber, Xiang Nan still didn't move at all!
Xiang Nan's right foot, which had its heel suspended in the air, was as steady as a mountain.
"You … this is impossible!" A trace of panic appeared in the sturdy man's eyes.
"I don't believe it!" The burly man was enraged. He roared, and the huge tail behind him kept falling. He lifted it up and fell. Burst after burst of explosive strikes smashed open numerous fine cracks on the arena floor behind him.
Wave after wave of terrifying collision force was continuously exerted on Xiang Nan.
However, in the fiercely shaken arena, Xiang Nan still did not retreat a single step.
Xiang Nan narrowed his eyes and said, "If this is the limit of your strength, then I think you can admit defeat."
After saying that, Xiang Nan suddenly lowered his body's center of gravity. His legs were in a horse-step posture, and the huge saber in his right hand suddenly jumped into the sky. The burly man was actually sent flying, and his body continuously rotated more than ten times in midair.
"Wow!" The audience stood up together.
Shen Linhai looked at this scene in disbelief. "What's this kid's strength?"
What surprised the audience was none other than Xiang Nan's strength!
If Xiang Nan had used a martial skill to provoke the strong man away, the visual impact might not have been strong. The key was that Xiang Nan and the strong man had clashed head-on. He had used the purest strength to provoke the strong man away.
However, strength was precisely the strongest advantage of that strong man!
Xiang Nan turned the giant saber in his hand half a circle and walked towards the sturdy man.
After consuming the Body Tempering Pill, Xiang Nan had endured a full month of pain, and at this moment, its effects were undoubtedly revealed!
