Kong Renhe's strength was actually far inferior to his own, but he was so arrogant because of his magic sword. Even if he put aside his sword cultivation, he also had a magic sword in his hand, and the four laws were completely integrated into one. What was there to fear? Could it be that without the sword, he really couldn't go on?
"Eight Desolations, God Falls!" Strong self-confidence once again emerged from Mu Hanyan's eyes, and a majestic momentum suddenly burst out from her body.
Mu Hanyan forgot everything around her, forgot about the upcoming competition, threw all distracting thoughts out of her mind, and focused all her attention on this sword.
"The peak of the tenth-order Divine Heart Priest!" Guan Xiujin stood up suddenly on the stands and blurted out involuntarily.
He wasn't actually too surprised by Mu Hanyan's promotion to the tenth-rank Divine Heart Priest. After all, the trials in the Divine Soul Palace weren't in vain. But going directly from the ninth-rank Divine Heart Priest to the pinnacle of the tenth-rank Divine Heart Priest was a leap to heaven. It took him decades, one step at a time, to climb those steps with great difficulty.
"What, Chief Priest Mu has actually reached the peak of the tenth-level Divine Heart Priest!" The people in the audience were slightly inferior in cultivation, and were originally unsure of Mu Hanyan's cultivation level, but after hearing his words, they were completely certain and exclaimed.
What surprised them even more was yet to come. As Mu Hanyan swung her sword, another phantom of a spear emerged from the sword. However, unlike the previous burning flames, this time, four completely different lights of laws flashed on the spear, intertwining with each other to form a dreamlike and strange light phantom.
"The four great laws, she actually integrated the four great laws!" This time, even Jiang Ruchu couldn't help but stood up suddenly.
The audience was so shocked they were speechless. It turned out that Mu Hanyan had not only reached the pinnacle of the Tenth Order Divine Heart Priest, only one step away from becoming a Divine Soul Priest, but had also fused four laws. Now, they finally understood what Yue Tianlun had meant.
How could Yue Tianlun contend with such strength? Not only did he not have the slightest chance of winning, but his survival depended entirely on Mu Hanyan's mercy. He wasn't being modest.
"How is this possible? How did she become so strong?" On the opposite side, Kong Renhe's face no longer had the arrogance it had before, and he was completely stunned.
But he soon realized that now was not the time to be in a daze.
As soon as the two divine arts met, the power of the laws within them collided violently, making loud noises. The entire competition platform also shook violently, and cracks like a bead net appeared on it.
Kong Renhe felt as if he was struck by lightning, his internal organs were churning, and his throat was sweet.
Their cultivation bases were similar to each other. One had condensed the five great laws, while the other had perfectly integrated the four. They also had their own strengths and weaknesses. In this battle, there was no room for trickery; it was a head-on confrontation.
"Mu Hanyan, are you crazy? Stop it now!" Kong Renhe finally spat out a mouthful of blood and shouted at Mu Hanyan.
If this continues, it will definitely be a lose-lose situation, or even a mutual destruction.
"Why don't you stop?" Mu Hanyan said with a faint smile.
Her face also looked very bad, pale and miserable, with a few traces of blood seeping from the corners of her mouth, but her eyes were still so confident and determined, moving forward courageously, without any fear or intention of retreating.
"Okay, okay, I'll see who will win!" Kong Renhe was angry and anxious. He gripped his sword tightly and flew towards Mu Hanyan.
This time, he actually used martial arts!
In order to enhance their physique and strengthen their meridians, priests would also practice martial arts when they reached a certain level of cultivation, but they rarely used them in combat. After all, they were not priests or swordsmen, and this kind of close combat was not their forte. However, Kong Renhe had no other choice after being pushed to this point by Mu Hanyan.
Of course, he was also fearless. He had absolute confidence in his ancestral Wind-Riding Sword. As long as he could sever Mu Hanyan's sword in one fell swoop, the power of her divine arts would be greatly reduced. She couldn't use such powerful divine arts with her bare hands. No matter how strong the human physique is, it has its limits and can never withstand such a powerful law.
Wishes are beautiful, but reality is often cruel.
Seeing Kong Renhe resort to martial arts in a fit of rage, Mu Hanyan smiled again. Although she couldn't use the sword, martial arts and sword skills were similar in nature. Her martial arts were undoubtedly much stronger than Kong Renhe's.
With a twist of her wrist, the Hanxiao Sword drew a beautiful arc and stabbed towards Kong Renhe. The tip of the sword trembled slightly, and it unexpectedly transformed into hundreds of sword shadows. This was because Mu Hanyan didn't want anyone to doubt her or hold back. If she really unleashed the mystical power of the sword, she could easily create a thousand sword paths.
"Ga!" Kong Renhe was startled and suddenly stopped his forward momentum.
Although he was confident that the quality of the Chengfeng Sword was far superior to Mu Hanyan's broken sword, and that cutting it off with one sword would not be a problem, the problem was that the hundreds of sword shadows were both real and unreal, and even he could not tell which one was real and which one was fake. He had no idea where to start. He was afraid that before he could cut off Mu Hanyan's sword, there would be hundreds of bloody holes on his body.
This damn girl, even the martial arts are so perfect, how did she practice it? Kong Renhe couldn't figure it out. Considering Mu Hanyan's age, it's okay to have such a high level of magic, but how could she also have such a high level of martial arts?
Helplessly, he could only give up, but even though he gave up, Mu Hanyan did not give up and actually competed with him in martial arts and swordsmanship. How could he miss such a rare opportunity?
Along with the pleasant buzzing sound, sword shadows and cold stars shot towards Kong Renhe like raindrops.
Kong Renhe was shocked and frightened, with the hairs on his back standing on end. He quickly retreated, and while retreating, he still desperately waved the Chengfeng Sword, setting up an impenetrable sword net in front of him.
Ding ding ding ding... In a moment, hundreds of sparks suddenly burst out on the Chengfeng Sword.
Although he blocked Mu Hanyan's torrential attack, how could Kong Renhe's rudimentary sword skills compare to Mu Hanyan's sword skills that she had practiced since childhood and had long since reached the state of perfection? Almost every sword strike fell on the weakest and most powerless point of Kong Renhe's sword. The powerful force also passed through the Chengfeng Sword again and again, severely shaking his internal organs.
"Puff!" Kong Renhe spat out another mouthful of blood.
Blood was gushing out of his mouth, and his heart was bleeding even more. If it had just been a competition of divine arts, the end result would have been nothing more than a loss for both sides. But because of his stupid move, rushing forward to compete with Mu Hanyan in martial arts, he ended up getting hurt even more miserably. Kong Renhe regretted it so much that his intestines almost turned green.
