Yun Che had already taken up his stance, his face grave. In contrast, Xiao Luocheng was calm and composed, a smile on his face, showing no signs of tension... However, he was already seething with anger inside.
He would not have decided to make a move without a reason. Because this Yun Che had given him a certain sense of crisis. Of course, this sense of crisis was not because he believed Yun Che could defeat him. Rather, Yun Che, who was only at the First Level of the Profound Realm, had managed to defeat Lu Zhannan, who was at the Seventh Level of the Profound Realm. The fire-type profound skill he used had reached an incredibly high level. Someone who could possess such abilities at the First Level of the Profound Realm was someone he, as the young master of the Xiao Clan's outer sect, had never seen, not even heard of.
Even when he was at the First Level of the Profound Realm, he absolutely could not have achieved this level.
This meant that, at the same level, even he would basically not be a match for Yun Che.
For so many years in New Moon City, he had always been recognized as the top person. Among the younger generation, there had never been anyone who could earn his respect. Yet, from Yun Che, he could not help but feel a sense of inferiority. This feeling made him extremely uncomfortable. Such a person should not exist in New Moon City, let alone in front of him.
Moreover, Yun Che's attitude was arrogant, and his words were unreserved and unrestrained. His previous mockery of the seven sects and the humiliating defeat of their top disciples made it clear that these sects would inevitably harbor resentment towards Yun Che. Whether they would take any covert actions after today was uncertain, but becoming friends was basically impossible.
Since that was the case, then destroy him... In this New Moon City, the only one who deserves the title of "genius" is me, Xiao Luocheng!
And this Yun Che is strong enough, arrogant enough, and stupid enough! He even dug his own grave for himself! In this way, he had no more reservations about destroying him.
With this thought, the smile on Xiao Luocheng's lips became even more ambiguous. He casually extended his hand towards Yun Che and said, "Brother Yun, please."
Xiao Luocheng's posture clearly indicated that he wanted Yun Che to make the first move.
Yun Che did not hesitate. He stepped forward, took a few steps, and swept his right arm towards Xiao Luocheng's chest. There was no specific technique, only a simple collision of profound energy. Clearly, he wanted to test the depth of Xiao Luocheng's profound energy.
Using the First Level of the Profound Realm to test the Tenth Level of the Profound Realm!
The people of the Xiao Clan's outer sect all wore sneers of ridicule... The difference in their profound energy levels was almost a major realm. The only way Yun Che could last longer was by relying on profound movement techniques, but he had directly chosen to collide with profound energy, which was utterly ignorant. A hint of disdain also flashed in Xiao Luocheng's eyes. He kept his right hand behind his back and casually swung his left hand.
With one hand, and only using three-tenths of his strength.
With a "bang," the two arms collided. Xiao Luocheng stood still, not even swaying, while Yun Che's body slid back more than two zhang, almost falling to the ground. His entire right arm was trembling. He immediately showed a look of surprise and said, "As expected of Young Master Xiao, your profound energy is truly profound!"
"Hehe." Xiao Luocheng smiled faintly. "Brother Yun's profound energy is also extremely heavy. No wonder you could defeat Lu Zhannan. However... If I say that I only used three-tenths of my strength just now... Do you believe me?"
"Haha, Young Master Xiao is really joking." Yun Che laughed, clearly treating Xiao Luocheng's words as a joke, which caused the disciples of the seven sects to sneer. He took a step back, raised his right hand again, and said with a frown, "However, the next move, Young Master Xiao must be careful. If you take it head-on, you might suffer serious injuries."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Luocheng's lips twitched violently. The disciples of the seven sects laughed again. Yun Che's displayed strength had indeed shocked them repeatedly, but at this moment, his excessive confidence and ignorance far outweighed his strength.
"Thank you for your warning, Brother Yun. Please go ahead and make your move. I will take it. Even if I suffer serious injuries due to my lack of strength, with so many people witnessing it, I will not blame you." Xiao Luocheng said with a smile. He was starting to regret stepping forward... Because fighting such an overly confident idiot was a disgrace to his identity! And with such arrogance and ignorance, even if he had high talent, he would never amount to anything, and there was no need to be wary of him at all.
Yun Che took a deep breath, his gaze becoming particularly serious. A vortex of profound energy rapidly formed on his right hand, clearly concentrating all his strength on his right hand. In fact, from his battle with Xuan Yu to now, except for a movement technique, he had never used any offensive profound techniques. All his attacks were the most basic profound energy impacts.
And this time, it was the same. Everyone was completely convinced that Yun Che did not have any offensive profound techniques.
"Young Master Xiao, take this move!"
Yun Che roared, delivering a powerful punch to Xiao Luocheng's chest. This punch clearly gathered all of Yun Che's profound energy, with a momentum that was intimidating, and the profound energy fluctuations were at least twice as strong as a typical First Level of the Profound Realm.
Swinging such a force at the First Level of the Profound Realm was enough to make people stare in amazement. But for Xiao Luocheng, it could not pose the slightest threat. Feeling a barely powerful profound energy momentum coming towards him, a hint of disdain flashed in Xiao Luocheng's eyes. He had no patience left and swung a plain punch without any profound techniques, but this time, he used seven-tenths of his strength.
Three-tenths of his strength was enough to knock Yun Che back, and seven-tenths was enough to shatter Yun Che's entire arm and cause his internal organs to shift significantly under the profound energy impact.
"Idiot... Die!"
Xiao Luocheng sneered in his heart, his gaze dark, as if he could already see Yun Che heavily injured and unconscious, his right arm a bloody mess in the next second.
Just as the two fists were about to collide, a cunning light flashed in Yun Che's eyes, and a heavy, low voice echoed in his mind.
"First Form of the Evil God —— Falling Moon and Sinking Star!!"
Deep within Yun Che's body, the first realm of his profound meridian suddenly released an intense crimson light, as if a slumbering demon god had suddenly opened its terrifying and violent eyes. Instantly, all the profound energy in Yun Che's profound meridian and throughout his body was instantly mobilized, surging towards his right fist with incredible intensity, and expanding wildly as it surged...
When Jasmine bestowed Yun Che with the Evil God's profound meridian, she had said that each of the seven realms of the Evil God's profound meridian, when opened, would bestow the corresponding level of the Evil God's technique, and would also unlock a corresponding Evil God's profound skill. Whether it was the Evil God's technique or the Evil God's profound skill, no cultivation was needed; as long as the realm was opened, it could be activated at any time.
When the first realm was opened and the evil soul was bestowed, the name and activation method of the first form of the Evil God were simultaneously imprinted in Yun Che's mind.
This was one of his last hidden cards, and it was the super gift he decided to give Xiao Luocheng after noticing the sinister aura in his eyes.
The seven realms of the Evil God's profound meridian represented seven Evil God skills. The first Evil God skill, "Falling Moon and Sinking Star," symbolized that when the Evil God used it, it could destroy the sun and the moon. While it was impossible for Yun Che to unleash such a heaven-defying power, the name alone was enough to show how terrifying its power was.
Boom!!!
When the two fists collided, a deafening explosion like a thunderclap echoed. A terrifying shock wave spread wildly from the point of collision, and with a series of cracking sounds, the marble floor of the main hall cracked extensively, and large pieces of tiles were flung far away.
At the center of the profound energy collision, a figure was sent flying like a cannonball, slamming into a pillar near the entrance of the main hall. With a "bang," the thick stone pillar trembled, and countless cracks rapidly spread across it, with a large amount of dust falling from the roof of the main hall.
The figure that hit the pillar did not bounce off, as half of his body was embedded in the pillar by the violent force. After a while, his body finally slid down the pillar and fell to the ground, covered in blood, unconscious, and his chest was a bloody mess, with white bones visible. When his body touched the ground, his entire left arm was almost instantly drenched in blood.
And this person was not Yun Che, but Xiao Luocheng.
The entire hall fell into a dead silence, everyone's eyes wide open, and no one spoke for a long time. Then, without any prior agreement, Qin Wuyou stood up, Sikong Han stood up, Tie Zhan Cang stood up... The various sect leaders and elders who were renowned in New Moon City all stood up almost simultaneously, staring with wide eyes, as if trying to confirm whether their eyes were deceiving them.
"Ugh..."
With a painful groan, Yun Che suddenly knelt on one knee, breathing heavily, his right arm hanging limply. His internal energy was surging, and a spurt of blood almost burst from his mouth, but he swallowed it back. After swallowing the blood, his body felt weak and empty... His profound meridian was completely drained, and his profound energy was almost completely depleted. At this moment, he was so weak that he could hardly stand.
Slowly, he raised his head, looking in the direction of Xiao Luocheng, and a satisfied smile formed on his lips.
If you didn't provoke me, you would still be the mighty young master of the Xiao Clan's outer sect, and the recognized top person among the younger generation in New Moon City. My arrogance is a form of self-protection. But your arrogance... is truly digging your own grave!
