Da Xuan Martial Saint

This person is ranked tenth, which in her opinion is indeed too low.

If Chen Mu were still in that state of hazy wandering, not using Artistic Conception Technique to defend, relying solely on the natural convergence of The Power of Heaven and Earth by Artistic Conception alone, I'm afraid it would be impossible to block Jiang Yifei's move... no, even if Chen Mu were to wake up a moment later, it would be extremely perilous!

Whirring!

Under the watchful eyes of countless people, some shocked, others their expressions changing, all they saw was that within Jiang Yifei's sword light, the four clusters of revolving light finally pierced towards Chen Mu, reaching three feet from his body.

"Four Seasons Rotation, time flies like a song!"

Jiang Yifei let out a long howl.

In that instant, the same overwhelming Strength of Qian Heaven that had previously crushed Gu Hong's Heart Sword emerged on Chen Mu's body, revolving around him like an immense, invisible millstone, clashing with Jiang Yifei's sword light.

Crack, crack, crack.

The crowd seemed to faintly hear the sound of chains breaking, only to see that the Four Seasons Rotation inside Jiang Yifei's sword light now also appeared to form a millstone, grinding incessantly against the Strength of Qian Heaven surrounding Chen Mu.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yifei's sword, amidst the mutual grinding of The Power of Heaven and Earth, gradually crept closer to within three feet of Chen Mu's body, slowly approaching inch by inch. While visibly slow to the naked eye, it seemed to already declare the victor; his gathered Four Seasons Power could break through the Strength of Qian Heaven revolving around Chen Mu!

"Chen Mu, not using the Artistic Conception Technique to solidify the Strength of Qian Heaven, is being too complacent. Jiang Yifei is likely to win."

Yuan Yingsong watched the scene from above, his eyes flickering.

He also cultivated the Qiankun Eight Phases, mainly focusing on the Kun Earth Artistic Conception. Although Kun Earth shares certain correspondences with Qian Heaven, he was able to rank above Zhou Hao, placing second among the up-and-comers: one reason being his mastery over the Kun Earth Artistic Conception was much superior to Zhou Hao's, and the other was that the Eight Desolations Halberd Technique he practiced was also stronger than Zhou Hao's Earth-Shaking Saber Decree!

The Strength of Qian Heaven revolving around Chen Mu was extremely vast and terrifying, even stronger than the Power of the Earth Yuan Yingsong could muster at this moment. Yet, this power, if not controlled and merely left to rotate naturally like this, is clearly insufficient to withstand Jiang Yifei's unified Four Seasons Power. Yuan Yingsong didn't know if Chen Mu was truly inattentive, overly confident, or if Chen Mu had reached his limit in mobilizing such immense Strength of Qian Heaven, and actually didn't have the strength to control and refine it further.

Jiang Yifei's move indeed posed some threat to him.

But.

Almost in the next moment, not just Yuan Yingsong, but many of the prodigies on the entire mountain steps had their expressions change again and again!

They saw that Jiang Yifei's Peach Divine Spirit Sword, engulfed in the rotating light of Four Seasons, inch by inch, pierced before Chen Mu's three feet, eventually penetrating the layer of Strength of Qian Heaven that was like a millstone. However, instead of continuing its unstoppable momentum into Chen Mu's body, it suddenly collided with a second layer of grand and heavy power, as if stars hit the earth. Despite creating ripples, it remained completely immobile!

"This..."

Jiang Yifei's pupils shrunk and his face turned drastically.

At the same time.

He also sensed a terrifying sense of crisis descending upon him, seeing Chen Mu's originally hazy eyes suddenly, as if becoming aware, slowly drop and gaze towards him.

It was also, since ascending the Yunni Sky Steps, that he finally woke from the boundless enlightenment for the first time.

"Mysterious Mechanism Pavilion, Jiang Yifei?"

He raised his right hand, the index and middle fingers pinching together, trapping that close-at-hand Peach Divine Spirit Sword between them, and looked toward the other with a light gaze, toward the Mysterious Robe on his body.

Jiang Yifei's face changed greatly, and with a sudden long howl, he performed some Secret Technique, and the Yuan Gang Force around his body suddenly grew more intense by several degrees. But at this moment, he no longer thrust forward with his sword; instead, he violently retreated, attempting to flee.

However.

No matter how he pushed his Four Seasons Power to the limit, exerting all his strength, he still couldn't pull the tip of the Peach Divine Spirit Sword from between Chen Mu's ordinary-looking two fingers by even an inch as if it were embedded in rocky mountains, locked by the boundless mountains and seas!

"Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, the Power of Four Seasons, is all but so."

Chen Mu looked at Jiang Yifei with an indifferent expression and then his aura exploded, in a flash Qian Heaven and Kun Earth merged, turning into an overwhelmingly irresistible power, fiercely intertwining.

Crackle and pop!

The Four Seasons Spiritual Light on the blade of the Peach Divine Spirit Sword, like a shattered mirror, broke off piece by piece, spreading all the way to Jiang Yifei's body, causing him to show a look of horror. He attempted to let go and retreat, but he was a step too late.

The entire person was crushed by a tremendous force of Heaven and Earth, as if a giant's foot stepped on an ant, breaking apart the Artistic Conception and Yuan Gang around him, flinging him backwards, a gush of fresh blood staining the mountain steps red!

"Not a bad sword."

Chen Mu's gaze returned to the Peach Divine Spirit Sword pinched between his fingers. He saw the entire Spirit Weapon, though its force was shattered by him, still continuously drawing power from Heaven and Earth, with the entire blade trembling.

A slight gleam flashed in his eyes, and then he flicked his finger.

Swish!

The Peach Divine Spirit Sword flew out from between his fingers, heading towards Zhou Hao not far above the mountain steps.

Zhou Hao, still dazed, caught it subconsciously, feeling the entire blade still vibrating, trying to break free from his grasp. So, his five fingers tightened, forcibly suppressing it.

"May I trouble Brother Zhou to look after this for a while."
