Chapter 37 Visit Mr. Xiao
Xiao Yi wore a look of indifference on his face as he gently shook his head.
Although his cultivation was only at the First Layer of the Divine Passage Realm, the four hundred God Sealing Seeds within his body had been activated. Even though he hadn\'t subdued any new foes, those seeds had infused his Sword Intent Seed with the power of the divine.
He had completed the last step of transformation.
True Sword Intent had formed!
With Sword Intent in his grasp and having stepped into the First Layer of the Divine Passage Realm, he had also awakened his Innate Divine Ability.
This elevated Xiao Yi\'s power to a whole new level!
He underwent a fundamental transformation!
With his current strength, not even a Sixth Layer of Divine Skill Realm powerhouse like Jia Sichun was of any concern to him.
"Killing me is like slaughtering pigs and dogs?"
Jia Sichun\'s face was filled with a hideous rage, experiencing humiliation like never before, he touched his cheek that had just been slapped by Xiao Yi, his eyes glinting with icy coldness, "A dog like you dares to humiliate me like this? I\'ll show you how foolish it is to have angered me!"
Boom!
Jia Sichun\'s fists flew through the air.
Vital energy surged wildly along his arms as if cloaked in an armor of Qi, his figure as swift as the wind and lightning, racing forth in a blink.
Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye.
Jia Sichun appeared before Xiao Yi, pointing his finger, "Four Directions Prison Dragon Finger!"
Boom!
Vital energy, fine as threads, burst forth from his fingertips, enveloping the space around Xiao Yi from all directions, interweaving into a cage of Qi.
Jia Sichun\'s face twisted malevolently, "Six Harmonies Extinction Sun Palm!"
He opened his hands, one to the left and one to the right, with palms facing each other.
From his palms erupted scorching vital energy like raging flames, transforming into two fiery dragons rushing towards Xiao Yi within the cage. The dragons appeared fierce and life-like, with flames that soared high enough to almost melt the arena itself.
"Is this... really martial arts? Why do our techniques seem like child\'s play before his, although we\'re also in the Divine Skills Realm..." Zhao Yu swallowed nervously, his eyes filled with horror and dread.
Elder Yan took a deep breath, his face tinged with bitterness, "This is true Divine Skills. What we\'ve been cultivating is merely martial arts... Nanhuang is too small!"
Nanhuang was indeed too small.
So small that these family heads who presided over their respective areas couldn\'t even awaken their Innate Divine Abilities when breaking through to the Divine Skills Realm.
If they were in the capital, these Divine Skills Realm experts could only be called pseudo-Divine Skills.
They were far inferior to those of the same realm who had awakened their Innate Divine Abilities.
Not to mention in the Great Qian Dynasty...
Any Divine Skills Realm cultivator who hadn\'t awakened their Innate Divine Ability, even in the military, would only be cannon fodder.
Not far away, amidst the crowd.
Lord Sikong wore a grave expression as he turned toward the elder beside him, his heart filled with unease, he ventured, "Elder Wang, should you intervene?"
"Grandfather, won\'t you take action?" The young girl standing beside him looked up.
Elder Wang chuckled and shook his head, petting the girl\'s head, he smiled, "No need, that young fellow named Xiao Yi has brought me quite a few surprises! And his wife, having such a rare Ice Attribute Innate Divine Ability, if I bring this couple back, those old fellows will surely be green with envy..."
Sikong Nan\'s face shifted slightly.
He was well aware of Elder Wang\'s status and naturally understood where the elder spoke of taking them.
Sikong Nan calmed the envy and excitement in his heart, looking towards Xiao Yi, he thought to himself, "It seems it must have been Xiao who brought forth the heavenly phenomenon back then, and now he has even caught Elder Wang\'s favor. Xiao\'s future is boundless indeed!"
Meanwhile.
The fiery dragon from the flames had already rushed toward the Four Directions Prison Cage.
Numerous flames spewed out tongues of fire, emitting intense heat as if to incinerate all in its path to ashes.
"Die, Xiao Yi!"
Fang Zheng and his family had faces full of venomous resentment.
However...
Amidst the flames, a heaven-shattering Sword Qi burst forth.
Whoosh!
The silver sword light cleaved the fierce flames into two halves, and along with the entire vital energy prison, crumbled to dust under Xiao Yi\'s sword edge. Following closely, Xiao Yi\'s figure emerged from the flames, like the deity of fire descending upon the world.
"Impossible… How, how could you possibly break my Four Directions Prison Dragon Finger?" Jia Sichun\'s face was filled with shock, disbelief written all over it.
This was a third-grade high-level martial skill, combined with the fire attribute vital energy brought by his Innate Divine Ability, it was tremendously powerful.
Using these two consecutive moves against his opponents, he had always been invincible!
Boom!
Jia Sichun\'s body shook violently as tongues of fire burst forth from within him, turning him into a human-shaped flame. Flames spewed from his eyes, revealing his Innate Divine Ability, the Flaming Devil Body.
Enveloped in the soaring demon flames, the Flaming Devil Body charged towards Xiao Yi: "Trinity Palm!"
"Four Symbols Thunderous Fist!"
"Five Directions Demon King Finger..."
With demon flames enhancing his body, over ten different skills came crashing down like a landslide, but Xiao Yi effortlessly neutralized each one. Facing Xiao Yi, who stood quietly before him, revealing no flaws, Jia Sichun, even with his demon flames, still felt an icy chill throughout his body.
Xiao Yi held the Dragon Scale Sword, looking indifferently at what laid before him: "Ten moves have passed, now it\'s my turn!"
"Sweeping a Thousand Armies!"
A horizontal sweep of the sword, its brilliance like thousands of galloping horses.
Boom!
The terrifying Sword Qi sent Jia Sichun tumbling into the air, and right then, Xiao Yi\'s second sword strike was upon him: "Chasing Stars and Moons!"
Whoosh!
This sword strike snapped the tendons in both of Jia Sichun\'s hands.
"Life Seizing Soul Chaser!"
In an instant, dozens of sword shadows descended upon Jia Sichun\'s body, obliterating the flames and completely shattering the Innate Divine Ability, the Flaming Devil Body. Xiao Yi flashed forward in pursuit, a foot stomping down hard.
Bang!
Jia Sichun\'s head smashed heavily onto the arena, reverberating with a thunderous boom, spreading spiderweb-like cracks all over the stage.
Sand flew and dust tumbled.
As the dust settled,
Xiao Yi stood proud between heaven and earth, while Jia Sichun was pinned beneath his foot, his head having smashed a deep pit in the arena floor, blood oozing from all seven orifices, both hands limp with snapped tendons, looking every bit the cripple.
Xiao Yi said indifferently, "You\'ve lost before ten moves were up!"
Hiss!
The arena was shrouded in silence, as quiet as death.
Gulp!
Someone swallowed nervously, breaking the eerie stillness.
"I, I\'m fuckin\'…"
"Xiao won? He, he actually defeated Jia Sichun?"
"Jia Sichun is a Profound Level student at the Royal Martial Arts Academy, a genius who has awakened his Innate Divine Ability. Would this not mean that Xiao\'s strength surpasses that of the Profound Level students at the Royal Martial Arts Academy?"
"That\'s terrifying!"
"Xiao\'s talent and strength are indeed frightening, but... he\'s gotten himself into big trouble! I heard that Jia Sichun\'s background is profound, his father holds a high position in the current court, and his brother is an Earth Level student at the Royal Martial Arts Academy. Xiao has no background; how can he deal with the Jia Family\'s retaliation?"
"Xiao is from the Xiao Family..."
"The Xiao Family? They were about to expel Xiao from their family, why would they care about his life or death?"
At this moment,
a commotion suddenly arose from the crowd: "Lord Sikong is here!"
"Make way, Lord Sikong must have come to save Jia..."
"Xiao Yi is as good as dead!"
Jia Sichun, still being stepped on by Xiao Yi, regained his senses. With a bloody face, he roared ferociously, "So what if you\'re stronger than me, Xiao Yi? Can your strength possibly compare to the power of my Jia Family? You\'re doomed... Lord Sikong, my father is Jia Jun, a second-grade officer of the court. Help me kill him!"
However...
Sikong Nan did not even give Jia Sichun a glance but bowed deeply to Xiao Yi in full view of everyone, speaking loud and clear: "Sikong Nan pays respects to Mr. Xiao..."
