*****

Tang Li's Xuan Qi level is about five times that of Yang Dingtian. His speed is about twice that of Yang Dingtian.

Therefore, this battle is completely different from the one with Gan Lang.

Gan Lang's strength lies in his speed and his vicious and cunning techniques. He killed over a dozen Xuan Warriors by taking them by surprise.

However, once his tactics were seen through, defeating him became very easy. When Yang Dingtian saw through his tactics, the battle became effortless, and Gan Lang was torn to pieces in just a few seconds.

But Tang Li is different. The gap between Yang Dingtian and him is a direct energy and speed gap. It would be very difficult to make up for this with techniques alone.

Because, in this world, Xuan Qi is the king, representing true power!

Therefore, this battle will be much more difficult than the one with Gan Lang! Because it is a direct confrontation of Xuan Qi energy!

A fivefold gap is too hard to make up for!

*****

"Yang Dingtian, if I were you, I would definitely swear on Ximen Wuyan, that dead ghost. After all, he's long dead, and even if he's being tortured in hell, what can he do?" Tang Li said coldly, in a voice only Yang Dingtian could hear: "You are really stupid. Elder Yang Yan saw your stupidity and proposed this condition, and you came to your death as expected."

Tang Li did not directly engage in battle with Yang Dingtian but spoke first.

Despite his immense anger, Yang Dingtian did not respond, only staring at him coldly, like a coiled beast ready to attack.

"Let me tell you, what is Yang Qi? Whether he lives or dies is none of my business. This fool has offended many people, and who knows who killed him. I don't even think you killed him, after all, you were just an启蒙者 at the time." Tang Li continued with a laugh: "The reason I want to kill you is for Qin Shaobai. After all, I'm about to become the son-in-law of the Northwest Qin family."

Yang Dingtian still did not respond.

"Don't worry, after you die, Qin Shaobai will take good care of Ximen Yan. After he's done with her, he'll give her to his brother Qin Huaiyu, to show brotherly affection." Tang Li continued with a laugh: "Unfortunately, I can't share in the feast. Otherwise, I've lusted after Ximen Yan for many years. I remember several times I tried to sneak a peek at her bathing, but I was beaten up every time. After Qin Shaobai got Ximen Yan, I asked to see her big breasts and big butt, and even to touch them a few times. After all, I killed you for him!"

Yang Dingtian's breathing became heavy, and he was inwardly furious. He thought he wouldn't be angry at such vicious taunts, but when this beast spoke about Yan in such a despicable and vulgar way, Yang Dingtian couldn't help but get angry.

"It seems today, only one of us can live," Yang Dingtian said coldly. "Either you die, or I live."

Tang Li sneered: "I told you in front of the Skill Pavilion, I will definitely kill you."

"Stop talking. Let's start the battle!"

...

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

In Tang Li's hand was a massive blood-colored blade weighing two hundred pounds. Besides being a three-star Xuan Warrior, he was also incredibly strong, so the massive blood blade in his hand was particularly terrifying, tearing through the air with a sound like the howling of ghosts and wolves, making people tremble with fear.

In Yang Dingtian's hand was a three-foot-long strange blade, twisted like a piece of iron, without any imposing aura. Just by looking at the two weapons, there was a world of difference. Yang Dingtian's strange blade seemed not even worthy to be compared to Tang Li's blood blade.

A loud noise, and Yang Dingtian and Tang Li collided like a meteor hitting the earth, the hard ground cracking and stones flying.

"Bang..." A large crack appeared on Tang Li's massive blood blade, but he remained still, his expression unchanged!

Yang Dingtian, on the other hand, was forced back several steps, a mouthful of blood spewing out.

In the instant of close combat, an incredibly powerful Xuan Qi energy penetrated Yang Dingtian's body through the weapons. Instantly, Yang Dingtian's chest felt as if it had been hit by a massive rock, his tendons and muscles torn, his bones shattered, and he was in excruciating pain.

Yang Dingtian chose to go head-to-head with his first move!

Everyone looked at Yang Dingtian in disbelief, not understanding why he did this. His advantage was clearly in swordsmanship, so why didn't he use his subtle sword techniques to engage in a fluid battle, but instead compete in Xuan Qi, which was a clear mismatch of strength?

Yang Dingtian did this on purpose. He wanted to test how strong Tang Li's Xuan Qi was and how much Xuan Qi attack his body could withstand.

Now, he had his answer.

Seeing that Yang Dingtian only took a few steps back and spat out a mouthful of blood after his full-strength attack, Tang Li was surprised. He didn't expect Yang Dingtian to be so resilient. According to Yang Dingtian's Xuan Qi level, his Xuan Veins should have been severed, and his internal organs turned to mush.

"Since you can withstand one of my strikes, how about ten, or twenty?" Tang Li said coldly.

Then he gathered all his Xuan Qi into his blood blade, and a red blood glow spread over the massive blade, making it look even more fierce and terrifying.

"Devilish Mad Blade..." Tang Li roared, and his battle blade slashed down at Yang Dingtian with overwhelming momentum.

The fourth move of the Pig Slaughtering Sword Technique: Heart Dig and Lung Take!

Yang Dingtian's strange blade, like a venomous snake, twisted and coiled out to meet Tang Li's blood blade.

This move, Heart Dig and Lung Take, not only blocks the enemy's blade but also uses the principle of "four ounces to move a thousand pounds" to deflect the enemy's weapon and quickly dissipate the force.

Instantly, Yang Dingtian's blade stuck to Tang Li's blood blade. With a flick of his wrist, he tried to dissipate the force on Tang Li's blade.

However, an incredibly powerful Xuan Qi energy surged into Yang Dingtian's body.

"Spit..." Yang Dingtian's body was violently thrown back, staggering several steps, and another mouthful of blood spewed out.

Yang Dingtian's "four ounces to move a thousand pounds" failed because Xuan Qi is not force but instantaneous energy, which cannot be transferred!

Xuan Qi is indeed the king. The huge gap in Xuan Qi is indeed hard to make up for with techniques.

...

After two moves against Tang Li, Yang Dingtian spat out two mouthfuls of blood.

The many disciples on the square all showed worried expressions! Their heated minds also became somewhat clear.

Indeed, Yang Dingtian's performance was extremely impressive. But he is only a Xuan Warrior. Subtle techniques are of little use, and Xuan Qi is everything in this martial world.

Therefore, don't have too high expectations of Yang Dingtian because of his impressive performance.

Yang Dingtian swallowed a mouthful of hot blood and looked at the arrogant and sneering Tang Li. The gap in Xuan Qi energy is indeed hard to make up for.

...

"You have no hope," Tang Li said coldly. "In this world, no one can win a cross-level battle!"

Indeed, in the past hundred years, no one has won a cross-level battle. The most famous cross-level victory was three hundred years ago, when Li Tianxiao, the young master of the Wooden Sword Fort, defeated the third son of the Northwest Qin family. Li Tianxiao was a full level and several grades lower than the third son of the Qin family, but he still won the duel and killed the third son of the Qin family.

But that was because Li Tianxiao had gone mad and became the biggest traitor in the history of the Heavenly Dao Alliance!

...

Yang Dingtian gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth!

First test, spitting blood.

Second attempt to use subtle sword techniques to neutralize Tang Li's blade, failed, spitting blood again.

Two tests, two times spitting blood! But it also allowed Yang Dingtian to understand Tang Li's habits, fighting style, and his Devilish Blade Technique.

Now, it's time for the final decisive move!

The last method, also the most dangerous method!

Close combat, placing oneself in a desperate situation to achieve a breakthrough!

Getting close to Tang Li's body, using subtle sword techniques to take his life! Through two moves, Yang Dingtian found that Tang Li's Devilish Blade Technique is indeed powerful and fierce. One strike can add several layers of Xuan Qi energy, but in terms of technique, it is extremely simple, completely straightforward!

So once Yang Dingtian gets close, using his sword techniques to neutralize the Devilish Blade Technique should be very easy.

But there is no doubt that this is also the most dangerous move. Because once close, if any vital point is hit by Tang Li's blade, it means certain death!

Yang Dingtian could defend against Gan Lang's sword, but not Tang Li's. Because Tang Li's Xuan Qi is several times stronger, making it impossible to defend.

Once close, Tang Li can strike his body, regardless of how subtle Yang Dingtian's sword techniques are or how simple Tang Li's blade techniques are. Yang Dingtian's sword cannot block because Tang Li's speed is twice as fast, and his Xuan Qi is five times as strong!

So Yang Dingtian's final fighting method is absolutely a matter of placing oneself in a desperate situation to achieve a breakthrough!

"Breath..." Yang Dingtian slowly exhaled, looking at Tang Li twenty meters away.

He must organize an attack, a perfect attack. If it fails, or if there is any mistake, he will die!

A few seconds later, Yang Dingtian calculated various combinations of offensive sword techniques in his mind! If Tang Li's reaction is as predicted, Yang Dingtian's sword techniques should be effective!

Then, the remaining question is how to get within three steps of Tang Li, at least within the range of a sword!

How to get close to Tang Li might be the hardest part. Because Tang Li's speed is twice as fast, and his Xuan Qi power is five times as strong. How to get close is the hardest and most dangerous part.

Yang Dingtian's method of getting close is... to walk slowly!

That's right, to walk slowly, leisurely, step by step, approaching Tang Li.

Instantly, everyone was shocked. Is Yang Dingtian crazy? This is a completely suicidal act. Walking like this, Tang Li can attack at any time, and with such a slow speed, Tang Li can easily cut him down.

And so, Yang Dingtian walked step by step to within three steps of Tang Li.

The arrogant Tang Li did not attack, holding his blood blade, a sneer of disdain on his face.

At this moment, the two were only one meter apart, just the length of a sword.

Tang Li's sneer gradually turned into a cruel and vicious expression, and he slowly raised his battle blade.

Yang Dingtian slowly channeled all his Xuan Qi into the Nightingale strange blade, and the blade began to vibrate, adding about two layers of Xuan Qi.

"Let me tell you something," Yang Dingtian suddenly said.

"Go ahead, this is your last chance to speak," Tang Li sneered.

"Yang Qi was killed by me. I killed him in the Trial Wilderness and threw him into the lava abyss, destroying all evidence..." Yang Dingtian said in a low voice, only audible to Tang Li.

Tang Li was momentarily stunned. At the time, Yang Dingtian was just an启蒙者, yet he really killed Yang Qi! So, Tang Li's mind was momentarily shaken!

Yang Dingtian's eyes turned cold, and at this moment, the decisive move was made!

"Clang..." Yang Dingtian, like a coiled beast, suddenly sprang up!

The Nightingale strange blade in his hand suddenly burst with an incredibly sharp and fierce light!

The first move of the Pig Slaughtering Sword Technique: Throat Stab and Blood Letting!

Yang Dingtian's sword, like a meteor, used the fastest speed and all his energy, suddenly stabbed at Tang Li's neck!

Tang Li was startled! At this moment, he could choose to retreat. His speed was faster than Yang Dingtian's!

But he did not retreat!

He displayed a very impressive move, tilting straight to avoid Yang Dingtian's throat-stabbing sword! Then, he immediately counterattacked, his blood blade bursting with a red glow like fresh blood, slashing diagonally at Yang Dingtian's waist, a fierce and violent strike!

At this moment, Yang Dingtian should have retreated to avoid the attack. But he did not!

The Nine Tribulations Sword of Nothingness, No Self!

Instantly, his sword became tragic and majestic. His body did not retreat but charged toward Tang Li's blood blade!

Placing oneself in a desperate situation to achieve a breakthrough, this is placing oneself in a desperate situation to achieve a breakthrough!

The seventh move of the Pig Slaughtering Sword Technique: Split in Two!

Under the shocked gaze of everyone, Yang Dingtian, like a martyr, charged toward Tang Li's blood blade, his Nightingale giant sword aimed at Tang Li's chest, slashing down with unprecedented brilliance.

Killing Tang Li, right now!

Whether he can kill Tang Li, it all depends on this moment!

Yang Dingtian used his life as a bet, making a move to kill Tang Li, fighting with all his might.

"Bang..."

Tang Li's blade fiercely struck Yang Dingtian's abdomen.

And Yang Dingtian's sword also fiercely slashed into Tang Li's chest.

"Spit..." Blood spurted out, and Yang Dingtian was thrown back several meters, falling to the ground!

Tang Li, however, remained standing, a crack appearing on his chest, blood spurting out!

The scene was silent, everyone staring at this shocking moment!

Placing oneself in a desperate situation to achieve a breakthrough, Yang Dingtian used his life as a bet to kill Tang Li.

Now, he was about to succeed!

Everyone was waiting for Tang Li to fall, waiting for Yang Dingtian to create another miracle!

Tang Li looked down at the blood on his chest, his eyes, hands, and body trembling.

One second!

Two seconds...

Three seconds...

Everyone was waiting for him to fall!

"Ha ha ha ha..." Suddenly, Tang Li burst into laughter, tearing off his upper clothing to reveal a muscular upper body and a metal net armor!

"Yang Dingtian, not only do you have protective clothing, but I do too!" Tang Li laughed, saying: "But your weapon is really powerful, it actually split my Xuan Iron Chain Armor and cut into my chest, breaking five of my ribs!"

Tang Li laughed, coughed, and spat out blood!

"Placing oneself in a desperate situation to achieve a breakthrough, indeed decisive and shocking..." Tang Li sneered: "If it weren't for the Xuan Iron Chain Armor, I might really have died from your sword."

"But since you couldn't kill me, now it's your turn to die!"

Tang Li's eyes blazed with infinite anger and killing intent.

Then, he slowly walked toward Yang Dingtian, holding his blood blade, intending to tear him to pieces.

This fatal strike from Yang Dingtian, though it didn't kill him, caused him unprecedented injuries, setting back his cultivation by two years.

Tang Li approached Yang Dingtian step by step, with a shocking killing intent.

And Yang Dingtian still lay on the ground, motionless.

After twenty steps, Tang Li stood beside Yang Dingtian and said in a low voice: "Die in peace. Ximen Yan and Ximen Ning, we will take good care of them, in bed. Now, you can die..."

With that, Tang Li used all his strength and fiercely slashed down.

"Stop, we surrender..." Yan Yan suddenly rushed out, shouting: "Stop, we will leave Cloud Peak City!"

Tang Li's blade stopped, waiting for Elder Yang Yan's command.

Elder Yang Yan's eyes slightly closed, and he said calmly: "It's too late to surrender now!"

"Yang Dingtian, die..." Tang Li roared, aiming at Yang Dingtian's neck, slashing down with overwhelming force!

"No..." Yan Yan let out a mournful cry, about to faint!

And at that moment, Yang Dingtian suddenly opened his eyes, his sword stabbing out like a venomous snake.

"I said placing oneself in a desperate situation to achieve a breakthrough means now! I knew you were wearing protective clothing!"
