"We can't wait any longer!"

A resolute glint flashed in Luo Qingyang's eyes. The spatial power and purple spiritual energy around him intertwined wildly as he rapidly formed hand seals and uttered a low shout:

"The Secret Technique of the Flowing Cloud Dao Sect - Purple Sun Divine Hand!"

As soon as the words fell, a gigantic purple hand, tens of meters long, suddenly materialized in the sky, its surface shrouded in a faint halo of laws.

Intricate runes were imprinted on his palm, radiating an overwhelming and terrifying aura, like the wrath of heaven descending.

It descended upon Xiao Chen and Lin Jingxing simultaneously!

This palm strike was intended to severely injure both of them simultaneously, completely clearing away the obstacles to the competition for the secret treasure!

"Hmph, wishful thinking!"

Lin Jingxing snorted coldly, unleashing his golden spiritual power without reservation. He raised his right hand, and a lifelike golden cloud dragon condensed in his palm.

The dragon, wreathed in blazing dragonfire, its scales clearly visible, exudes a domineering and overwhelming power.

"The Lin Family's Ultimate Technique - Cloud Dragon Palm!"

The golden cloud dragon roared and soared into the sky, colliding violently with the giant purple hand!

"boom--!!"

A deafening roar reverberated throughout the entire secret realm, as golden dragon flames and purple spiritual energy were violently annihilated, and a raging shockwave spread out like a tsunami.

The stone platform trembled violently, the surrounding spatial vortexes became unstable, and the sea of ​​clouds was thrown several meters high.

Even the cultivators engaged in a chaotic battle in the distance were affected by the shockwave and retreated one after another.

The giant purple hand trembled slightly, cracked by the impact of the golden cloud dragon; the golden cloud dragon also dimmed a bit, and most of its dragon flame dissipated.

"Now!"

Seizing the moment when the two were exchanging blows, Xiao Chen's figure blurred, and his rusty iron spear, imbued with a sharp azure spear intent, pierced straight towards Luo Qingyang's heart.

He knew very well that Luo Qingyang's spiritual power must be somewhat sluggish after using his ultimate move, which was the perfect opportunity to counterattack!

Hopefully, we can kill him in one blow, then we'll only have to deal with Lin Jingxing next, which will be much easier.

Luo Qingyang's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly withdrew his Purple Sun Divine Hand, waving his white jade whisk.

Dozens of white threads shot out like venomous snakes, coiling around the rusty iron spear, while the body quickly retreated, attempting to avoid Xiao Chen's sharp edge.

"Trying to hide?"

Xiao Chen's eyes sharpened, and with a slight turn of the spear tip, a burst of cyan spear intent erupted, forcefully severing the white silk thread. The spear's momentum did not diminish, and it continued to approach Luo Qingyang.

The two instantly clashed, spear shadows intertwining with the silken threads of their whisks, their azure spiritual energy colliding with the purple spatial power.

Every move was extremely dangerous, and no one dared to be careless in the slightest.

The standoff on the stone platform was broken, and it turned into a deadly battle between Xiao Chen and Luo Qingyang.

Upon seeing this, a glint of shrewdness flashed in Lin Jingxing's eyes.

With Xiao Chen entangled and Luo Qingyang preoccupied with his own affairs, this was the perfect opportunity for him to seize the secret treasure!

Without further hesitation, he swayed and rushed toward the transparent ball of light in the center of the stone platform, reaching out his right hand to claim the treasure.

"Don't even think about touching it!"

A rough, angry roar suddenly rang out, and a pale golden figure shot out from beneath the sea of ​​clouds like a cannonball.

With the savage and ferocious aura of a wild beast, it charged straight at Lin Jingxing. It was none other than Shi Tou, who had recovered most of his strength!

Shi Tou raised his right arm high, his fist condensing a rich, pale golden spiritual power. The wind from his fist howled, as if it could shatter the void, and he slammed it hard into Lin Jingxing's back!

"Um?!"

Lin Jingxing's expression changed drastically. He hadn't expected this body cultivator to recover so quickly and suddenly appear!

He didn't have time to grab the treasure, so he could only forcefully turn around, gathering all the golden spiritual power in his body into his left arm, and threw a punch to meet the stone's fist!

"boom!!"

The two fists collided violently, and golden and pale golden spiritual energy erupted, forming a visible energy shockwave. The stone platform trembled again, and the stone slab beneath their feet shattered instantly!

Lin Jingxing felt an immense force, like a tsunami, surge through his fist, his arm went numb, his blood and qi surged, and his body involuntarily staggered backward.

He stumbled back five steps before finally regaining his balance, his eyes filled with shock as he looked at the stone.

"What a powerful physical body!"

Lin Jingxing was filled with shock and disbelief. His physical body, tempered by the Lin family's secret techniques, far surpassed that of other cultivators of the same level.

Even ordinary cultivators at the peak of the Dao attainment stage might not be able to defeat him in physical combat, yet this body cultivator named Stone was able to knock him back with a single punch!

If it weren't for his strong physique, this punch would probably have been enough to fracture his arm bones, or even cripple his entire arm!

The force of the recoil forced Shi Tou back two steps, his fists turning slightly red, but he grinned.

He flashed a set of white teeth: "Want the secret treasure? You'll have to get past me first!"

His internal energy cultivation technique circulated once more, and pale golden spiritual power covered his entire body, making him like an unshakeable iron tower, blocking the transparent ball of light and staring intently at Lin Jingxing.

As long as he is still standing, he will never let anyone get close to the treasure and delay his senior brother!

Lin Jingxing looked at the stone blocking his way, then at Xiao Chen who was still fighting Luo Qingyang in the distance, and his expression became serious.

He never expected that he would be stopped by a body cultivator, and that this body cultivator's physical body would be so powerful!

The situation on the stone platform became complicated once again: Xiao Chen was entangled with Luo Qingyang, the stone blocked Lin Jingxing, and the transparent ball of light hovered in the center, preventing anyone from getting close.

Beneath the sea of ​​clouds, the remaining cultivators also noticed the struggle on the stone platform, ceasing their fighting and staring intently at the platform.

Although they already knew they had no chance of winning the treasure, they still wanted to see who would ultimately get it.

Shi Tou stared at Xiao Chen and Luo Qingyang, who were locked in combat in the distance, then glanced at Lin Jingxing, who was eyeing him menacingly in front of him, and a sense of foreboding washed over him.

They and their senior brother all came from small worlds and had no foundation in the Xuanqiong Realm. If the other cultivators recovered later...
