Towards the Path of Heaven
Chapter 152

"The Dark Spirit Runes!"

Zhou Xuan's eyes flickered as a huge aura slowly flowed out. It had actually turned into a heavy great ruler in front of him.

Although those Dark Spirit Runes only appeared and did not move, the disciples around the square could feel a strong pressure. That Dark Spirit rune seemed to have a strength of ten thousand catties. With a slight sway, it could cause ripples in the air, spreading far and wide.

This makes them breathe. Indeed, spirit runes were the strongest attacks of an Elixir Realm. If one had the power of spirit runes, they would be able to destroy cultivators of the same level.

Therefore, although Yan Chutian's previous appearance had always surprised them, after Zhou Xuan displayed the spiritual runes, there was no possibility of a reversal.

But will reality be like this?

Seeing that the shape of the Sword Spirit was gradually appearing, Yan Chutian's eyes did not change. However, there was a faint shadow of a sword that slowly appeared in the depths of his eyes. The body of the sword was filled with light and color, revealing its sharpness. In the body of the sword, there were many ancient and mysterious runes. No one knew the meaning of the rune, but it still added mystery to the sword.

At the next moment, Yan Chutian gently changed the movements of his hands. As the movement of his hand changed, the huge sword was slowly projected out. The scene that appeared was very similar to the Dark Spirit Runes that Zhou Xuan had displayed earlier!

Therefore, the surrounding gazes suddenly changed. Each one widened his eyes. An unprecedented look of disbelief spread out and landed on the huge sword that gradually appeared.

"This ... this is the spirit rune ?!"

"He, Yan Chu can actually display spirit runes ...?"

"How is this possible? He had clearly just entered the Elixir stage. No matter how challenging he was, how could he condense spiritual runes so quickly!"

"No way, he must be pretending. With such a short time in the Elixir Realm, it was impossible for him to condense spirit runes no matter what!"

Countless shouts of surprise continued to surge like waves. This was because they really did not believe that a man who had just entered the Elixir Realm could suddenly display spirit runes?!

Xu Jian, who was initially sneering and averted his gaze, stiffly turned his head back. When he caught a glimpse of that enormous sword form, his expression suddenly turned ugly. He had just concluded that Yan Chutian did not have the strength to resist, but such a huge change occurred in the blink of an eye. How can he stay calm?

"Damn it... Impossible! It must be fake. How can you condense spirit runes with a cultivation that has just entered the Elixir Realm?!"

The worried faces of Zhou Yang, Li Feng, Zhou Qing and the others were replaced with excitement at this moment, especially Zhou Qing, whose worried little face was now filled with vigor. He stared at the skinny figure on the stage, and his heart could not withstand the faster beat.

On the high platform, the eyes of Elder Tianshan, who was originally calm, were almost in disbelief. Perhaps the number of times he lost his composure today was more than the total amount he lost his composure in the past year. Because who would have thought that the ordinary new Elixir Realm would be able to create such a shocking scene so many times.

"Rune of the Spirit …"

Han Chen muttered. Thinking of the confident attitude that Yan Chutian had towards him not too long ago, he could not help but burst out in laughter. No wonder the boy was always so calm. It turned out that he had already condensed a spiritual inscription unconsciously.

"Rune Spirit ?!"

Zhou Xuan's expression changed, and his calm face became dazed again. He also could not imagine his opponent being able to use the power of spirit runes. But his aura was clearly the new Elixir Realm. In other words, he, who had just entered the Elixir Realm, had condensed spirit runes.

Waves surged in his heart, but no matter what, Zhou Xuan said to himself that he should calm down. Otherwise, he might really fail miserably today.

"Dark Spirit Runes, come out!"

Zhou Xuan said firmly. No matter what, he deeply believed in the spiritual inscriptions he had condensed. Even if his opponent had condensed a spiritual inscription, then why? He did not believe that he could not defeat Yan Chu in front of him!

That Dark Spirit slashed fiercely with an enormous momentum. As it slashed, space trembled as if it could collapse at any moment.

Looking at his opponent's spirit runes, Yan Chutian naturally did not hesitate. After quietly taking a deep breath, he also formed a seal to control the sword-shaped spirit runes and slashed forcefully.

"The Mysterious Sword Spirit Runes!"

One sword and one dark collided strongly on the stage. In an instant, everyone held their breaths, as if afraid of disturbing the collision. In fact, their worries were completely unnecessary. With the light screen of spiritual energy as a barrier, it was hard to disturb.

After the collision, an astonishing fluctuation spread rapidly. The ripple circle violently struck the light screen. Turbulence lasts a long time before it calms down and returns to the void.

Looking up, in the midst of the collision, the ruler-shaped spiritual inscription seemed to have suppressed the sword-shaped spiritual inscription. This made everyone who was watching gently sigh in relief. Fortunately, it was not heaven-defying and beyond their imagination.

However, at the next moment, the ancient and mysterious spirit on the suppressed sword-shaped spirit rune shone. Then, the suppressed sword trembled violently and completely unleashed. After that, it slashed!

"explosion!"

The huge sword slashed down, and an astonishing roar rang out again. This time, when the people looked up, they were surprised to find there was a huge gap in the dark spirit. It seemed to have been cut by a huge sword!

"How is this possible!?"

The audience's cries echoed again as they did not believe that a shocking reversal would occur at the very last moment.

No matter what, this is the truth. The gap on the heavy ruler appeared, and in the next moment, the heavy ruler collapsed and rushed back to Zhou Xuan's body. After the spirit runes rushed back, Zhou Xuan immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. This was the reaction he suffered from the spirit runes.

When the dark spirit returned to his body, the Mysterious Sword Spirit also returned to Yan Chutian's body at the same time. Although the impact this time was not small, it was still much better than Zhou Xuan's. And because of this attack, the outcome of the battle was finally decided.

"Bang!"

After spewing blood, Zhou Xuan fell to the edge of the arena in a miserable state. The Spirit Runes did indeed contain a shocking power. But because of this, after the spirit runes were broken, the backlash that the owner would suffer would be terrifying.

Take the example of the current Zhou Xuan. Due to the injury he received from the counterattack, he was unable to gather much strength.

But even so, Zhou Xuan used all of his strength to raise his head. His blurry eyes opened with great difficulty and stared at the pale figure not far from there.

Even until now, he still could not believe it. How could his opponent condense spirit runes when he had just entered the Elixir Realm? And ... very strong!

No matter what, this is the truth. Even if he couldn't believe it, even if he didn't want to lose, his defeat was certain.

When the deacon announced Yan Chu's victory, the people around him, who never stopped exclaiming, became even more exclaiming at the moment.

"Yan Chu ... he actually defeated Zhou Xuan!"

"Is this heaven-defying? He actually used the power of spirit runes and defeated Zhou Xuan!"

"This ... is this still the stage of the Elixir Realm?"

Countless disciples were stunned and could not accept this result for a long time. And somewhere in the crowd, Xu Jian's face was already distorted. A deep anger was revealed on his face.

How could he accept that Yan Chu had turned things around? Why is this guy like a bedbug? No matter how hard he tried, he could not suppress it.

And even if he was unwilling to admit it, he had a thought in his heart. If this continued, wouldn't Yan Chu be able to reach his level?

When that time came, did he still have the confidence to win against Yan Chu?

"Great, Young Brother Yan won!"

The girl, Zhou Qing, was shocked and excited. She cheered. His reaction revealed his true feelings, which made Wang Ping, who was beside him, smile helplessly.

This silly girl, I'm afraid only you would dare to call Yan Chu 'Sister Boy' just like that.

After the results were announced, Yan Chutian sighed and jumped down from the arena. He then rushed back to Mu Wan's side. However, when he landed, he could not help but stagger. Obviously, despite winning, he also suffered a lot of injuries.

At the same time, Mu Wan hurriedly extended her hand to support Yan Chutian. He whispered in his ear, "Is it okay?"
