CLANG!!!

A thunderous, loud clacking sound of swords was heard, penetrating into every nearby corner.

"Ugh."

Ling Tian blocked the attack with his own sword, but he flew a few meters through the air from where he stood and quickly regained his balance.

Qu Peing frowned when he saw that he could not kill this young man.

"You really seem to have some ability to be such an arrogant young man." Qu Peing spoke mockingly when he remembered the phrase said by Ling Tian and returned it to him.

Qu Peing didn't find it strange since he hadn't used all his strength.

Ling Tian frowned and looked at Qu Peing's sword: 'It seems that he is not so simple, he has a low grade immortal sword...'.

"But it's only a little!" The middle-aged man shouted again as he headed for Ling Tian once more, waving his sword at Ling Tian.

CLANG!

CLANG!

CLANG!

Ling Tian again heavily blocked all cuts aimed at him with his own sword, retreating several meters whenever he could not resist the force of Qu Peing's impact.

At this point, Ling Tian was clearly at a disadvantage, barely able to resist the attacks of the middle-aged man.

CLANG!!!

Another clash of swords sounded deep again, causing Ling Tian to shoot out a few meters away again. However, Ling Tian quickly regained his balance and stopped in mid-air without falling.

Qu Peing frowned more and more: 'Clearly I have the advantage without using all my strength... but why can he still defend himself?! Why can't I kill him?! He is only a weak stage of the Foundation Establishment!'

Ling Tian looked at Qu Peing while thinking of some things.

Qu Peing did not delay any longer as he felt that his wounds would slowly start to get worse if he continued to fight, hurling himself at Ling Tian once more.

CLANG!

This time, Ling Tian did not fly off and at the expense he was able to retain the impact force.

Ling Tian and Qu Peing were clashing with their own swords in the air as they looked at each other's faces. One was trying to resist heavily and the other wanted to cut his opponent with a single cut.

"You have an immortal sword too!" Qu Peing cried out in amazement when this time, he could identify Ling Tian's sword, as they were facing each other.

BOOM!

An explosion of Chi sent Ling Tian flying, tearing off parts of his tunics.  Yet, amazingly, the skin on his body had only a few very minor, superficial wounds.

"Kid! You can never beat me! I've only used half my strength and you can barely defend yourself." Qu Peing shouted arrogantly and, while he saw the sword in Ling Tian's hand, he said: "If you give me that sword and your ring, I won't kill you and let you go unharmed, what do you think?"

Qu Peing smiled brightly as he imagined getting another immortal sword. The one he had was hardly an immortal sword of low classification. He stole it from a sect without anyone noticing, so it has been almost invincible for many years.

Now, when Qu Peing saw the sword that the young man had in front of him, he knew that the Ling Tian' s sword was of very good quality, an immortal sword of medium or even high grade!

And if this young man had an immortal sword, doesn't that mean he could have more powerful and wonderful objects in his space ring?

The avarice in Qu Peing grew when he thought of having in his possession a high-grade immortal sword and Ling Tian's space ring.

Fwoosh

Once again, Qu Peing threw himself at Ling Tian, exerting more force to kill the young man in front of him.

Clang!

"Gosh!"

"This is like a battle between Gods!"

"This is nonsense..."

"Is this really happening?"

Everyone started talking and commenting, trying to understand what was happening in front of their eyes.

Two people were fighting with swords in the sky!

This is just like it was mentioned in the Legends when the Gods were flying and fighting each other!

"Will Lord Ling be all right?" The Lord of the City asked as he watched the fight between these two people

"I'd rather Lord Ling win than the other man. He gives me a bad feeling." Tang Wei spoke with some trepidation and could not close his jaw properly from the stupefaction of all they were seeing.

Everyone nodded to Tang Wei's comment, they preferred Ling Tian to win, despite the fact that Ling Tian was clearly at a disadvantage.

"But Lord Ling is clearly at a disadvantage... the other man is much stronger than Lord Ling himself." Zhang Chao said when he saw that Ling Tian could only defend himself

"We have no way to help him?!" A worried female voice was heard.

Zhang Xinya spoke anxiously while she saw that Ling Tian could barely defend himself.

"Daughter, we have no capacity to help him. These two are beyond our human capabilities." Zhang Chao replied as he saw his daughter worried.

They really couldn't help or do anything for Ling Tian. They were simply human, while the two of them were Gods!

Even where they were, they could feel the impact and shock of the two swords. It even started to create small cracks on the surface of the ice that protected them.

"He'll be all right, I think he's just waiting for something..." a cold and calm voice answered Zhang Xinya's question.

Everyone turned to Yun Mengxin, who was currently watching Ling Tian. Although they wanted to ask him, everyone still had their doubts.

Yun Mengxin frowned as she watched Ling Tian defend himself from every attack: 'Strange, he has not used any of his Chi and only defends himself from attacks with his own body strength...'.

Yun Mengxin could see that Ling Tian was not using any force of his Chi, defending himself with the same strength that his body was providing, while Qu Peing, mobilized his cultivation essence from time to time to try to force the sword to kill Ling Tian. She learned from Ling Tian that this middle-aged man was wounded.

CLANG!

"Tch!" Qu Peing clenched his teeth in fury when he could not kill Ling Tian despite using just over half his strength: "Kid, this elder has decided to kill you! Be glad that this elder will use all his strength to give you a dignified death!"

Ling Tian's breathing was a little fast, but he still showed no signs of despair and instead showed an indifferent and calm expression, which upset Qu Peing even more.

A stage of the Nascent Soul that cannot kill a simple stage of the Foundation Establishment is really a great insult and a mockery to him.

"Tsk!" Ling Tian snorted when he heard what Qu Peing said, "But I haven't used all my strength either."

Ling Tian smiled mockingly at Qu Peing, causing the latter to frown when he heard what he said.

Even the others tilted their heads in confusion as they heard Ling Tian say that he had not used his full strength.

"Haaa." Ling Tian stretched out a bit more, moving his neck and arms: "So far I've only used my body's strength to defend myself... I haven't even used my own Chi to fight."

Ling Tian smiled weakly while looking down on Qu Peing: 'My body refinement has weakened, so no doubt my strength of flesh has weakened too... it is barely fit to fight and stand against stages of the Nascent Soul.'

'That is impossible! He is only a mere stage of the Foundation Establishment! He should not even be able to defend himself from my attacks!' Qu Peing thought when he realized that he had not really felt any mobilization of Chi by Ling Tian, so he could not instantly understand everything that had happened. Despite having a huge and clear advantage in fighting, this young man in front of him somehow managed to defend himself from all his attacks, without letting a fatal attack strike him. It was almost two realms of difference!

"Now it's my turn!" Ling Tian smiled and in a split second, he arrived in front of Qu Peing with his own sword pointed at his head.
