Chapter 2103 - 2104: Kicking Someone When They're Down

Ling Zhenfei is at the Pursue Heart State, giving him a significant advantage over those at the Dawen Realm. With a single strike, many of them were knocked down.

Seizing the opportunity, Ling Zhenfei started to run towards the distance, but Xia Mingcheng confronted him head-on.

This Xia Mingcheng was already at the Pursue Heart State, so his strength now surpasses Ling Zhenfei by a great deal.

However, Ling Zhenfei had no hesitation, and he executed the fifth stroke of the Sky-Splitting Ten Blades towards Xia Mingcheng.

The power of this stroke was incredibly strong, and Xia Mingcheng, seeing it, released a wave of Northern Spiritual Energy.

After the clash of energies, Xia Mingcheng was unexpectedly sent flying by Ling Zhenfei's spiritual energy.

He clearly hadn't anticipated that Ling Zhenfei's spiritual energy would be so powerful, which is why he was knocked back.

Ling Zhenfei used this chance to run towards the distance. At this moment, the sound of a piercing approach was heard behind him, as Blood Son's treasured sword, wrapped in darkness, charged at Ling Zhenfei.

Ling Zhenfei turned around and struck with a blade, directly deflecting the incoming sword with a wave of spiritual energy.

However, at this moment, there was simply too much spiritual energy around, as those Dawen Realm cultivators had launched their attacks.

Cultivators at the Pursue Heart State have a spiritual energy that protects their bodies. But no matter how strong this energy is, it can't withstand the assault of so many cultivators.

Ling Zhenfei swung his spiritual energy, cutting down the nearby cultivators, but his protective energy shattered, and he was hit by the spiritual energy from those cultivators.

Ling Zhenfei realized things were bad; if this continued, he would surely die here.

Yet, as the battle began, more and more cultivators surrounded him, leaving him with no way to escape.

Such is the way of the world; when a wall collapses, everyone lends a push, with many eager to trample Ling Zhenfei.

But he's not so easily trampled—feeling the rush of spiritual energy directed at him, which indicated more cultivators were coming toward him.

With the Boundless Blade Technique and the Guardian Character Decision, Ling Zhenfei dissolved two flying swords with his spiritual energy, simultaneously employing his Plucking Leaves and Flying Flowers technique, sending countless pebbles, leaves, and dried grass spinning into the air to attack those around him.

The pebbles and leaves twirled in the air, forming a protective barrier in front of Ling Zhenfei.

This protective circle finally gave Ling Zhenfei some space and time to think about what he should do next.

Earlier hits during the attack were endured by Ling Zhenfei's body, but they were from Dawen Realm cultivators. The spiritual energy from those at the Pursue Heart State was all neutralized by Ling Zhenfei.

Now, it seemed like Ling Zhenfei was in a deadlock, surrounded by cultivators, including some at the Pursue Heart State. Without the Earth Escape Technique, it would be hard to break through.

Just then, Ling Zhenfei felt an incoming spiritual energy, a powerful force that shattered his Plucking Leaves and Flying Flowers technique in front of him.

Suddenly, pebbles and dry wood flew everywhere, blinding those around.

With Plucking Leaves and Flying Flowers breached, it offered the cultivators a chance to attack, with many spiritual energies directed at Ling Zhenfei. Abruptly, Xia Mingcheng soared, and behind him appeared a longsword with a towering aura, dozens of yards high, slashing toward Ling Zhenfei.

Ling Zhenfei, shocked, knew this was Xia Mingcheng's full force attack. Not daring to be careless, he swung the sixth stroke of the Sky-Splitting Ten Blades, directing his spiritual energy at the incoming longsword.

Boom!

The collision of spiritual energies generated a mighty force, pushing all the surrounding cultivators away.

Both Ling Zhenfei and Xia Mingcheng were hurled by the spiritual impact, with Ling Zhenfei landing on the ground from the collision's force.

This created an opening for the other cultivators to rush at Ling Zhenfei, and he was engulfed by their numbers.

Everyone thought Ling Zhenfei was doomed. Just as ants can bite an elephant to death, though Ling Zhenfei was no elephant and those cultivators were no ants.

Si Si's eyes shimmered with a hint of regret, while Du E turned away.

At this moment, the air around suddenly felt unusual.

Cultivators at the Pursue Heart State have senses beyond the ordinary and naturally detected this abnormality.

Suddenly, a surge of powerful spiritual energy erupted from the crowd.

This energy was extremely potent, knocking all surrounding cultivators away, and those too close were ripped apart by it.

From Ling Zhenfei's center, the surrounding cultivators appeared to fall away like rays of sunlight, with those closer suffering severe injuries.

The innermost ones were shredded, and even those on the periphery sustained various injuries.

Even the cultivators at the Pursue Heart State were blown quite a distance away.

The entire world fell silent, with Ling Zhenfei, bloodied, standing in the midst of the crowd like a heavenly god descended to earth.

Just now, Ling Zhenfei unleashed the seventh stroke of the Sky-Splitting Ten Blades, a strike he had never released before. But under the threat of death, he unleashed all his strength, releasing the seventh stroke in one go.

This stroke alone killed over a dozen cultivators, leaving many dead or wounded.

Everyone was shocked, as Ling Zhenfei, dragging his Tang sword, pointed at Blood Son in the distance and said, "These people's fate is your example!"

Blood Son and his cohort were all stunned, the power of that previous strike was unbelievably strong.

The strike Ling Zhenfei executed was certainly beyond what should have been possible at his current strength level.

To eliminate so many cultivators with a single strike was something even late-stage Pursue Heart State cultivators couldn't do.

Though Ling Zhenfei's last strike had left them deeply shocked, having killed so many cultivators, they could not just let Ling Zhenfei off.

Furthermore, several cultivators from afar were still heading towards Ling Zhenfei.

Ling Zhenfei stood in the center with his long knife, and some of the wounded cultivators began crawling away, now hesitant to attack Ling Zhenfei again.

Some cultivators had merely come to spectate, and who would've thought the one who seemed easiest to bully would unleash such a powerful strike, instilling fear in others.

Ling Zhenfei's hands were trembling slightly, as even he sometimes didn't know what was happening to him.

Logically, using the sixth stroke of the Sky-Splitting Ten Blades would almost completely exhaust his spiritual energy.

After reaching the Pursue Heart State, using the sixth stroke shouldn't be an issue, but executing the seventh seemed impossible.

However, earlier, as he was being surrounded and attacked, receiving numerous strikes, Ling Zhenfei felt the brink of death, and somehow from somewhere, a formidable energy surged forth.

This surge of spiritual energy, from some unknown source, allowed Ling Zhenfei to execute an enormously powerful move.

After using such a powerful move, Ling Zhenfei only felt a comfortable sensation throughout his body, as if everything had been released.
