Chapter 229: Old Opponent Fencing

One month later, outside the southern gate of Singing Sand City.

Stretching endlessly before the southern gate was a vast desert, spacious and perfect for a martial contest. On the side near the gate, a tall and majestic platform had long been erected.

Five Foundation Building stage cultivators — Guang HongDaoist, Gu Tanghai, Ruan Dadao, Jin Qigu, and Lin Shenpo — were seated high on the platform, serving as witnesses for this contest.

On the opposite side of the platform, in mid-air, Meng Zhang and Zhao Jiudou flew, their gazes locked in a standoff.

Guang HongDaoist spoke a lot of nonsense, emphasizing that this contest was meant for friendly sparring, and both sides should refrain from going too far and causing harm to each other's relationship.

After he finished blabbering, Guang HongDaoist loudly announced, "Let the contest begin."

On the ground, many cultivators had gathered, eagerly anticipating the battle between the two Foundation Building stage cultivators.

Having grown impatient with Guang HongDaoist's lengthy speech, some bold loose cultivators were ready to stir up some trouble.

As soon as the contest started, Zhao Jiudou struck a stylish pose and released an extraordinary flying sword made from the bones of a beast.

This bone-bladed sword was refined by the Earthfire Sect's tool refiner, using the spine of a Second Rank demonic beast known as the Iron-Eating Beast.This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.

The Iron-Eating Beast had a habit of devouring various metal ores and metallic substances.

The metals it ingested were gradually accumulated and concentrated in its bones after being digested by its body. Through the tempering of demonic energy, these bones became as hard as diamond and unbreakable.

The spine of the Iron-Eating Beast was almost completely covered by various metals. After years of tempering by demonic energy, it had become an exceptional weapon.

Taking advantage of the local resources, the Earthfire Sect's tool refiner invested a great deal of time and effort to craft this excellent flying sword from the spine of the beast.

Although it was a flying sword made from beast bones, its durability far surpassed those made from various metals.

Zhao Jiudou was undoubtedly aware that he obtained this flying sword by intercepting it from Meng Zhang.

This exchange continued with both sides continuously unleashing various spells and attacks upon each other.

The cultivators watching from below cheered, feeling that their trip had not been in vain, as this epic battle was sure to be a topic of boasting for a long time to come.

Meng Zhang and Zhao Jiudou still had some energy left to spare during their battle, and they were well aware of the reactions from the spectators.

As a disciple of the Flying Swan Sect, Zhao Jiudou naturally carried the pride of being a disciple of a prominent sect. It infuriated him to be treated like a sideshow by the onlookers while he fought with all his might against his enemy.

With a deliberate decrease in flying altitude, Zhao Jiudou flew closer to the observing cultivators. After evading one of Meng Zhang's spells, he clapped his hands together, summoning a gigantic earth dragon that swept towards Meng Zhang.

Meng Zhang dodged the attack, but the powerful earth dragon maintained its force and continued to sweep toward the cultivators below.

Those cultivators who had come to watch the spectacle now found themselves in an unexpected and dangerous situation. A Foundation Building stage cultivator's full-powered attack was not something that ordinary Refining Qi stage cultivators could withstand.

The Refining Qi stage cultivators on the ground scrambled to hide and evade the attack.

Guang HongDaoist, seated on the high platform, frowned, looking displeased. Zhao Jiudou's actions lacked the demeanor expected of a disciple from a prestigious sect, and his casual harm to others damaged Guang HongDaoist's reputation as the host.

Before Guang HongDaoist could act, Lin Shenpo was already one step ahead.

A flying sword shot out like lightning, directly slicing the earth dragon into harmless sand and soil.

The sword, having completed its task, circled around under Lin Shenpo's control, as if warning the two combatants not to act recklessly.

Guang HongDaoist couldn't help but call out, "Gentlemen, please exercise restraint and avoid injuring the innocent."

Meng Zhang couldn't help but inwardly curse Zhao Jiudou for the trouble he caused, which had nothing to do with himself. However, it seemed that Zhao Jiudou could still cause trouble while engaged in battle with him. It appeared that the pressure he had put on Zhao Jiudou was still far from enough.

After hearing the warning, Zhao Jiudou became more composed and focused all his thoughts on the battle with Meng Zhang.
