Although he did not know how Chen Ping had survived and emerged from the void passage, with Chen Ping’s Earth Immortal Realm strength, he believed he could crush him even with one hand behind his back.
Chen Ping smiled faintly. He gently opened his palm, and a sword of intent slowly condensed in his hand. In the next moment, Chen Ping’s figure vanished.
To deal with the Third Hall Master, Chen Ping did not even use the Dragon Slaying Sword. Instead, he formed a sword from the sword intent within his body.
Seeing this scene, the Third Hall Master frowned. A trace of shock flashed in his eyes, and the disdain on his face vanished instantly, replaced by a grave expression.
To instantly condense a sword from sword intent, how could that be achievable at the Earth Immortal Realm?
The Third Hall Master stepped forward. He raised his right hand and then pressed down forcefully. A powerful aura surged from his palm.
Whoosh!
Sword light appeared, heading straight for the Third Hall Master.
However, soon, this sword light was suppressed by the domineering aura from the Third Hall Master and halted abruptly.
Chen Ping shook his hand lightly. The sword of intent in his grasp erupted with a terrifying wave of sword intent.
Boom!
With a massive explosion, the Third Hall Master was forced to retreat repeatedly, staggering back a hundred zhang before steadying himself.
Whoa!
Seeing this, everyone was stunned. Even Ling Xi’s eyes flashed with horror. She had not expected Chen Ping’s strength to grow even faster than she had imagined.
At this moment, the Witch Prince’s face was also extremely unpleasant. The contempt he had just shown towards Chen Ping now felt like resounding slaps across his face, leaving him flushed with embarrassment.
He knew he had no ability to force the Third Hall Master back in one move.
The Third Hall Master halted his steps and looked at Chen Ping. His face was ashen, as if he had swallowed dung. After all, being repelled by Chen Ping in one strike in front of so many people was utterly humiliating.
But in his heart, he was more shocked. He knew Chen Ping well. Although Chen Ping could fight above his level, even defeating the Fifth Hall Master back then had not been so effortless.
How much time had passed since then, and now Chen Ping had become so terrifying.
He was simply too monstrous.
Meanwhile, in the crowd, the Fifth Hall Master, upon witnessing this scene, trembled slightly. Without any hesitation, he turned and left, vanishing directly into the void.
Although the Fifth Hall Master had come with the Third Hall Master, he had stayed hidden among the crowd without stepping forward.
He had planned for both outcomes.
If the Third Hall Master won, he could follow and wield power in the Divine Hall.
If the Third Hall Master lost, as long as he did not openly support him, he could still survive in the Divine Hall.
Now, seeing Chen Ping repel the Third Hall Master in one move, the Fifth Hall Master fled without a second thought.
The Fifth Hall Master’s departure was very discreet. The Third Hall Master’s disciples, including the Third Hall Master himself, did not notice.
But the Grand Elder saw it. Looking at the fleeing Fifth Hall Master, the Grand Elder curled his lips in a cold smile. “A mere Chen Ping scares you off. Have you forgotten about this old man’s presence?”
Although Chen Ping had repelled the Third Hall Master in one move, the Grand Elder was not worried.
No matter Chen Ping’s strength, he was ultimately just a small Earth Immortal Realm cultivator and posed no threat.
At this time, after repelling the Third Hall Master in one strike, Chen Ping showed no joy. Instead, his eyes narrowed slightly. “I could not kill you with one sword after all. It seems I still need more practice…”
During this period, Chen Ping had fought against the Fire Meteor in the void passage and ultimately inherited Wan Jianxing’s legacy, which allowed his realm to soar rapidly.
In Chen Ping’s view, with his current strength, he should have slain the Third Hall Master with one sword. Yet he had only repelled him, which left Chen Ping somewhat dissatisfied.
“Fuck, you’re too arrogant…”
The Third Hall Master was nearly driven mad by Chen Ping’s words.
For an Earth Immortal Realm cultivator to claim he could kill him with one sword was simply an insult.
However, before the Third Hall Master could react, a sword suddenly materialised out of thin air and shot towards him.
This sword appeared from nowhere, without any warning.
Now, wherever Chen Ping’s sword intent reached, it could instantly solidify into a sharp blade.
