The elders of Xuanqi Sect were worried a while ago.

Now, they were completely at ease.

The power of their Sect Leader was indeed formidable.

Even though Zhang Xiaoshan had gotten a slight upper hand earlier, he was by no means a match for their Sect Leader.

In the arena, Zhang Xiaoshan did not bring out the Sword Nourishing Gourd.

Although he had acquired the Twenty-Eight Constellations Sword Formation, he was not very skilled in using it yet.

This was a perfect opportunity to sharpen his skills with the sword array.

"Gather!"

Zhang Xiaoshan spoke the word succinctly, his expression calm.

As he uttered the word, twenty-eight flying swords once again blocked in front of the Purple Cloud Flying Sword.

The Purple Cloud Flying Sword was indeed formidable.

"Clang clang!"

The Purple Cloud Flying Sword trailed a brilliant streak of light across the sky.

The many flying swords repeatedly formed into a sword array, only to be easily scattered by it.

"Master Zhang, is this your limit?"

"If you have no other means, today will be your end."

Li Chengfeng's face was full of cold arrogance.

Earlier, when he competed with Zhang Xiaoshan in hand-to-hand combat, he was bested slightly.

Yet, even though he lost a bit in that exchange, he wasn't injured.

If Zhang Xiaoshan could not withstand his Purple Cloud Flying Sword now, it would mean more than just an injury; it would mean his demise!

The spectators around them were awed by the power of Li Chengfeng's Purple Cloud Flying Sword.

"Li Chengfeng's Purple Cloud Flying Sword truly lives up to its reputation."

"It's said that this sword once emitted violet and green lightning, assaulting the heavens."

"Earlier, Master Zhang controlled the sword array, dashing through, leaving many experts of Xuanqi Sect unable to resist."

"Yet now, even Master Zhang's sword array cannot withstand Li Chengfeng's single Purple Cloud Sword; this speaks to its strength!"

The onlookers continued to discuss fervently.

They looked at the Purple Cloud Flying Sword with admiration, and envied Li Chengfeng immensely.

Li Chengfeng was already powerful, and with such a Purple Cloud Flying Sword, there were probably few cultivators stronger than him in the world.

However, what happened next left everyone in the arena instantly stunned!

Just as everyone thought Li Chengfeng's Purple Cloud Flying Sword was about to pose a deadly threat to Zhang Xiaoshan, a sudden twist occurred!

"Buzz—"

Zhang Xiaoshan's Sword Nourishing Gourd floated up again.

Soon after, a frightening suction erupted from the gourd's mouth!

"Not good!"

Li Chengfeng, who had been in seclusion, hadn't witnessed the fighting outside.

If he had known about the power of Zhang Xiaoshan's Sword Nourishing Gourd, he would never have used the Purple Cloud Flying Sword against him!

"Come back!"

Li Chengfeng formed a sword gesture, wanting to immediately recall the Purple Cloud Flying Sword.

Zhang Xiaoshan's Sword Nourishing Gourd made him feel an extreme sense of danger!

Unfortunately, despite his quick reaction, the Sword Nourishing Gourd, known as the bane of flying swords, severed the connection between the Purple Cloud Flying Sword and Li Chengfeng in an instant.

"Give me back my sword!"

Li Chengfeng's eyes were wild with rage; the Purple Cloud Flying Sword was among his most prized treasures.

He immediately rushed towards Zhang Xiaoshan, with no hesitation, hoping to reclaim his flying sword.

Alas, the Purple Cloud Flying Sword held out only for a moment before being completely swallowed by the Sword Nourishing Gourd!

"Crack!"

With a crisp sound, the Divine Thought Imprint Li Chengfeng left in the Purple Cloud Flying Sword was shattered to pieces.

"Pffft!"

Sect Leader Li Chengfeng instantly turned pale as he spewed a mouthful of blood!

The elders of Xuanqi Sect and the surrounding crowd were utterly dumbfounded at this moment!

"How could this be?"

"This Sword Nourishing Gourd can not only absorb treasure flying swords but even Earth-level flying swords!"

The Great Elder of Xuanqi Sect was so shocked he was speechless.

He had only read about such a powerful Sword Nourishing Gourd in ancient texts.

He thought such a gourd had long faded away with time.

Who could have imagined that today, they would witness such a formidable Sword Nourishing Gourd with their own eyes?

However, the Great Elder of Xuanqi Sect and the many treasure seekers around did not remain astonished for long.

"Splashing..."

A sound reminiscent of flowing water echoed once more, as another unexpected change occurred in the arena!

A wisp of flame suddenly appeared before Li Chengfeng.

The splashing sound was unexpectedly emitted by this wisp of azure-blue flame.

As this flame emerged, Zhang Xiaoshan's Earth Core Green Flame began to tremble as if it had encountered a formidable foe.

Zhang Xiaoshan understood this situation.

Strange flames from heaven and earth would continuously devour and evolve.

A powerful strange fire could easily consume a weaker one.

The Earth Core Green Flame had always been invincible and powerful.

But this time, it had evidently met its match.

The Great Elder of Xuanqi Sect let out an elated exclamation!

"It's done! It's done!"

"The Sect Leader has truly subdued this wisp of Azure Sea Blue Sky Strange Fire!"

"Congratulations to the Sect Leader!"

After the Great Elder spoke, all the disciples of Xuanqi Sect, and even some treasure seekers, respectfully chimed in.

"Congratulations to Sect Leader Li Chengfeng!"

"Congratulations to Master Li Chengfeng for subduing the Azure Sea Blue Sky Strange Fire!"

For a moment, congratulations flowed through the arena.

This Azure Sea Blue Sky Strange Fire was a Low Grade Heavenly-level strange fire. Li Chengfeng subduing this fire could threaten even Human Immortal experts!

The situation between Zhang Xiaoshan and Master Li Chengfeng seemed to reverse once again!
