Moreover, his Void Force could continuously devour Lin Yun’s inner force during the exchange, causing Lin Yun’s condition to decline steadily. Ji Gu was confident that if the fight continued this way, victory was assured!
Boom!
Another fierce collision erupted. Ji Gu’s offensive showed no sign of weakening as he continued swinging his battle halberd in a sweep towards Lin Yun.
Boom boom boom!
In the blink of an eye, the two had clashed dozens of times more, fighting with extreme intensity!
Each collision was enough to make cultivators of the same realm feel their hearts tremble!
In the VIP seats.
“The battle between them has reached such an intense level. It is truly worthy of the Peak Tournament finals.”
“The Void Force of the Void Clan is extremely powerful. If they keep fighting like this, Lin Yun’s inner force will be completely devoured by the Void Force. He is doomed to lose!”
…
The elders from various families in the Dao Alliance watched the arena while discussing and sighing.
As for the Great Elder of the Void Clan and the Great Elder of the Dual Honour Pavilion, they were somewhat dissatisfied.
Given Lin Yun’s current performance, there was no sign that he intended to throw the match.
However, they no longer cared about that. As long as Ji Gu could win under these circumstances, the process did not matter. The result was what counted!
On the arena.
“Lin Yun, you have already lost!” Ji Gu attacked relentlessly, a confident smile on his face.
“Is it not a bit early to say that?” Lin Yun replied, the corners of his mouth curling into a smile.
After yet another clash, Lin Yun swiftly waved his hand and revealed his Source Artefact treasure sword.
“Ji Gu, I originally did not want to use a Source Artefact against you, but your strength is indeed impressive. Even in defeat, you should feel proud, because you forced me to employ a Source Artefact.” Lin Yun said with a laugh.
“What? A Source Artefact!”
When Lin Yun spoke these words, the entire venue erupted in uproar.
As a contestant from a non-top-tier force, everyone had always assumed that Lin Yun possessed no Source Artefact.
“Damn it!”
The Great Elder of the Void Clan changed complexion abruptly.
He knew full well that if Lin Yun possessed a Source Artefact, it would be enough to reverse the current situation on the stage!
He understood even more clearly that if Lin Yun used this Source Artefact, it meant he intended to win. He had no plans to throw the match.
On the arena.
“A Source Artefact?!” Ji Gu’s expression also changed dramatically.
“Take this!”
“Three Yang Slash!”
With the Source Artefact revealed, inner force surged wildly from Lin Yun. He unleashed all his techniques and slashed towards Ji Gu!
Facing Lin Yun’s counterattack, Ji Gu had no choice but to swing his battle halberd with full force to meet it.
Boom!
Accompanied by a massive explosion and sweeping storms, Ji Gu was instantly sent flying backwards by the impact. His own attack collapsed completely.
One must realise that before using the Source Artefact, the many techniques Lin Yun employed had only served to bridge the gap caused by the lack of one.
Now, with a Source Artefact in hand, those techniques that had compensated for the disparity became an overwhelming advantage!
Facing the retreating Ji Gu, Lin Yun’s treasure sword transformed into sword radiance once more and surged forward!
Bolstered by the Source Artefact, the power of Lin Yun’s attacks was clearly far greater than before.
Clang clang clang!
Under several consecutive sword strikes, the treasured armour worn by the constantly retreating Ji Gu was forcibly shattered by the shock.
The moment the armour exploded, Ji Gu spat out a mouthful of blood. His figure became unsteady.
Just as he managed to stabilise himself, the sword radiance ruthlessly arrived before him again.
Ji Gu had no time to launch a counterattack. He positioned his halberd horizontally, gripping it with both hands to block the sword.
Clang!
When the sword radiance struck the halberd, the terrifying power within that strike erupted towards Ji Gu like a volcano.
Ji Gu spat out another large mouthful of blood. His entire body was instantly hurled backwards, flying directly off the arena and crashing heavily below the stage.
Ji Gu had lost!
This also meant that the champion of this Peak Tournament had been decided!
That person was none other than Lin Yun!
Many spectators at the venue could not help swallowing dryly.
When their gazes fell upon Lin Yun once more, their eyes held only admiration and awe…
No one had expected that none of the contestants from the top-tier forces would prove to be Lin Yun’s match!
No one had imagined that the champion of this Peak Tournament would be a contestant from a non-top-tier force!
The elders from various forces in the VIP seats gazed with eyes full of shock!
The Master of the Wanbao Pavilion immediately stepped onto the stage and announced in a resounding voice.
“I declare that the champion of this Peak Tournament is Lin Yun!!!”
As soon as these words rang out, the venue, which had fallen into silence, instantly exploded into uproar.
