391: Chapter 391 Rematch
Lou Xiaoxing froze, as if something had gone wrong.
Ignoring the stunned Lou Xiaoxing, Xiao Weiqing walked straight to the third door and pressed his hand against it. After a month, Xiao Weiqing stepped into the third door once again.
Until the door closed once more.
Only then did Lou Xiaoxing slightly recover his senses.
"That's not right."
"It shouldn't be..."
"The script shouldn't have gone like this..."
"Why is this?"
Lou Xiaoxing looked toward Yin Wenzheng and Tian Zhenzhen, seeking an answer.
Yin Wenzheng was also stunned for a long time, only snapping out of it when Lou Xiaoxing asked him. He slowly said, "Two possibilities. First, Xiao Weiqing's strength is so great that it's beyond our understanding; even if you've entered the Eighth Realm, you're not his match and don't even have the right to fight him."
"Second, he has also entered the Divine Body Realm."
"But regardless of which case it is, it makes one's skin crawl. Is he truly human?"
Tian Zhenzhen nodded in agreement with Yin Wenzheng. Since she had met Xiao Weiqing, this young man who wasn't much older than her daughter had repeatedly shattered her worldview. He was strong—unreasonably strong, to the point of being unrealistic.
"Holy crap!" Lou Xiaoxing exclaimed. "I've totally embarrassed myself."
"Thinking back now, I looked like a clown just then. That fellow Xiao Weiqing must be laughing at me in his heart."
Yin Wenzheng shook his head and said, "Lou Xiaoxing, it's not that you aren't strong. In our Vermilion Bird Empire, no one is more talented than you. It's just that Xiao Weiqing... he really is a bit unlike a human."
Lou Xiaoxing said helplessly, "Sigh, this guy really is a bit unlike a human. He's just a monster."
Tian Zhenzhen nodded slightly, agreeing with this sentiment.
...
At the same time.
After Xiao Weiqing entered the room, he saw the familiar arena and the familiar pillar.
The buttons representing the ten Nirvana Warriors were as bright as lamps, shining brilliantly.
Without hesitation.
Xiao Weiqing still chose the Nirvana Warrior wielding a blade.
The moment the button was pressed.
The arena began to change.
The edges began to extend outward. This time, they extended by a full ten kilometers. The circular arena, which originally had a diameter of ten kilometers, now directly became thirty kilometers in diameter.
It was larger than most city centers.
"It seems the strength of the First-Class Nirvana Warrior has increased to a new Realm," Xiao Weiqing judged.
In an instant.
An energy shield enveloped the massive arena.
The Nirvana Warrior with the blade slowly walked from the edge of the arena toward the center.
Different from before.
This Nirvana Warrior was walking in mid-air, its feet a foot off the ground.
"Eighth Realm?"
Xiao Weiqing's pupils constricted, and his nerves instantly tensed up.
Heh!~~
A beast-like roar erupted from within the Nirvana Warrior.
The Nirvana Warrior turned into a black stream of light and charged at Xiao Weiqing.
Xiao Weiqing showed no fear.
Boom~~
His body roared, and he was bathed in flames. In less than a thousandth of a second, he entered the Flame True Body state. With a flip of his palm, ten thousand calamities appeared in his hand.
"Bang~"
The black Nirvana Warrior stepped on the air, creating a sonic boom as it suddenly accelerated and lunged at Xiao Weiqing.
"Ding!"
The two blades collided.
Terrifying energy erupted between the two figures, and fearsome sound waves blasted in all directions, slamming violently against the energy shield.
"What powerful strength!"
The force transmitted from ten thousand calamities gave Xiao Weiqing a rough estimate of the strength of this Nirvana Warrior, which he had already slain twice before.
It was no weaker than him, who had entered the Divine Body Realm.
One must realize.
Xiao Weiqing's current strength was at least eight to ten times what it was in the Seventh Realm. If Domain factors were excluded,
he could now easily defeat his former self.
But he hadn't expected the current First-Class Nirvana Warrior to possess such strength as well.
If he hadn't entered the Eighth Realm and had blindly come here, even with his Domain, trying to slay a Nirvana Warrior of this strength would have been extremely dangerous.
"Perfect. I'll use you for practice to test my current Physical Body strength."
"Bang!"
Xiao Weiqing exerted force with his hands, pushing back the Nirvana Warrior.
Simultaneously, he moved his feet, executing a Movement Technique to reach its side, and slashed down fiercely.
The powerful force instantly knocked the Nirvana Warrior back.
However, Xiao Weiqing's full-strength strike didn't cause any damage to the Nirvana Warrior.
In the next moment.
A black, coldly glinting greatsword tore through the air, even making space tremble, as it slashed toward Xiao Weiqing with a killing Aura.
"Good timing!"
Xiao Weiqing began to feel excited. Without any cowardice, he held his blade with both hands and crashed violently against the Nirvana Warrior.
"Clang!"
"Ding!"
"Clang!"
The two greatswords, one gold and one black, clashed continuously, causing the air to vibrate and making space itself appear warped.
The aftershocks of such a collision had the momentum to destroy heaven and earth. If someone of Seventh Realm strength were here, the aftershocks alone would be enough to kill them.
"Slash!"
"Slash again!"
A soft sound.
The Nirvana Warrior's black greatsword was snapped. On the remaining half of the blade, the edge was full of nicks.
It couldn't be helped; the Nirvana Warrior's black greatsword and its body were both made of nirvana stone, but what Xiao Weiqing held was a Divine Artifact.
Even though Xiao Weiqing couldn't exert its true power and even deliberately held back—since he didn't want to kill the Nirvana Warrior directly but rather use it to hone his combat skills and familiarize himself with his current strength—
nevertheless,
a Divine Artifact was still a Divine Artifact. After dozens of collisions, the black greatsword still broke.
"Is this all?"
Xiao Weiqing felt a hint of disappointment. The Nirvana Warrior had given him a great surprise, but it seemed to end here.
"Hmm?"
Just as Xiao Weiqing was reflecting,
he saw the Nirvana Warrior lightly flick the blade, and the severed tip actually flew back on its own and reattached.
In less than two seconds,
the break was restored as before, and even the nicks on the blade edge were fully repaired, looking as good as new.
Right, the body could heal, and since the weapon and the body were of the same Materials, it wasn't strange that it could recover.
"Just as well, I haven't had enough yet."
"Ha!"
Xiao Weiqing gave a low shout. This time he took the initiative, stepping forward to engage the Nirvana Warrior in close-quarters combat.
The ten thousand calamities in his hand blurred into afterimages.
Each slash was faster and heavier than the last, constantly hacking at the Nirvana Warrior.
"Exhilarating!"
Xiao Weiqing shouted.
Now he suddenly understood those reckless Martial Cultivators a bit. This feeling of close-quarters physical combat, of freely venting the power of every muscle, was indeed addictive.
Ding~ Ding-dang~ Dang~~
After snapping the Nirvana Warrior's blade again, Xiao Weiqing also calmed down from his excitement.
"Let's end this here."
It wasn't that he didn't want to fight more, but there was no need. He already had a thorough understanding of this blade-wielding Nirvana Warrior's strength. After all, it wasn't an Immortal Master; its combat logic was slightly lacking, so there was no point in lingering.
"Seamless Slash!"
Their figures crossed paths as ten thousand calamities, entwined with Samadhi True Fire, erupted once more.
"Thump, thump, thump..."
The Nirvana Warrior's massive head flew off, rolling dozens of meters across the arena.
While its huge body, due to inertia, flew out several hundred meters.
