Chapter 1352 - Fierce Collision

Huang Wuji stood up straight and looked at Wang Ba coldly. His qi and blood surged, then quickly calmed.

“Wang Ba, you’re not much after all.”

A halberd appeared in his hand, a light flickering from it, making him seem even more powerful.

“

Hmph

, such arrogance!”

Wang Ba’s face darkened. With a clasp, a spear formed in his grip, its tip aimed at the void as if to shatter the heavens.

“Block one strike by luck and think you can resist me? I’ll show you the gulf between us! A peasant from the lower realms dares to posture before me. You truly don’t know death.”

Next, it seemed like Wang Ba had turned into a god of war returning in triumph. His aura turned frigid; killing intent spread like a storm, making all nearby tremble.

“Wang Ba is about to show his real strength. What a terrifying aura.”

“I know, right? The aura alone makes me feel suffocated. It’s too terrifying.”

When the many Void Immortals present sensed Wang Ba’s aura, their irises contracted violently. Chen Fan also narrowed his eyes, worried about Huang Wuji. Wang Ba’s might pressed heavily even on him.

The oppressive aura grew increasingly stronger. His aura continued climbing, filling the space. It was incomparably cold, colder than the coldest part of the universe.

“Fight!”

Naturally, Huang Wuji also felt immense pressure. He understood that he would lose all hope of victory if he let Wang Ba control the tempo. So he stepped forward in the void.

Each step Huang Wuji took weakened Wang Ba’s aura slightly, while his own grew sharper. His qi and blood burned, forming a force that clashed evenly against Wang Ba’s might.

The crowd fixed their eyes on Huang Wuji, astonished that he showed no fear before Wang Ba’s oppressive aura; instead, he resisted it head-on.

“

Hmph

, do you think it’ll work?”

A look of disdain appeared on Wang Ba’s face. What use was such a trick against his oppressive aura? Victory or defeat was decided by strength, and his late-stage Void Immortal power could crush Huang Wuji outright.

“Die!” Wang Ba stomped forward in a blur, his terrifying aura exploding outward, sweeping across the battlefield like a killing god charging straight at Huang Wuji.

“Who’s afraid of you!”

Huang Wuji refused to show weakness either. He sped up, wrapped in a powerful aura, and rushed toward Wang Ba like a gust of wind.

Clang!

Their weapons collided together in the air, sending sparks flying along with sharp noises that threatened to pierce the crowd’s eardrums. The weaker cultivators in the crowd clutched their heads, blood trickling from their ears.

Rumble!

A shockwave erupted; clothes snapped and fluttered, storm-like ripples sweeping violently from the center of the clash.

Clang, clang, clang!

Boom, boom, boom!

The two of them exchanged hundreds, if not over a thousand, moves in a flash. Afterimages flickered in the void, dazzling the crowd, leaving them struggling to distinguish illusion from reality.

“What a terrifying clash!”

“My god, Wang Ba can’t even overpower Huang Wuji. Truly, heroes find their rivals. Chen Fan is a heaven’s pride, able to fight above his level, and Huang Wuji refuses to be outdone.”

“And have you guys noticed? In just a month, Huang Wuji’s cultivation level has already reached the peak of the early-stage Void Immortal level, just a step away from the middle-stage. His rate of improvement is a little too fast.”

“That’s right. The secret realm boosts cultivation dozens of times more than the outside world, but even so, this pace is abnormal.”

The crowd was astonished, shaken by the strength Huang Wuji had displayed. He could actually fight a late-stage Void Immortal with his strength. It wasn’t quite crossing a major realm, but it was shocking enough.

Rumble!

A thunderous rumble split the sky as the two figures were forced apart, standing proudly across from each other in midair. The space between them had collapsed entirely, storms howling outward like endless tornadoes.

“Look, Huang Wuji has coughed blood. As expected, although he possesses extraordinary strength, the gap between him and Wang Ba still exists.”

“Even so, for him to last this long while injured... it’s already unbelievable!”

The crowd was incredibly shaken.

Wang Ba’s face twisted, cold killing intent rolling off him in waves

He hadn’t expected Huang Wuji to be this troublesome. He had thought that with his strength, defeating him should have been effortless; after this exchange, reality proved otherwise.

Yes, he had forced Huang Wuji to spit blood, but this was absolutely humiliating. He was a late-stage Void Immortal expert. Spending this much time to make an early-stage Void Immortal spew blood was nothing short of humiliating.

“Wang Ba, it seems like you’re not as powerful as you imagined.” Huang Wuji looked at Wang Ba with a smile. Although he had coughed blood, his aura was still as majestic as ever, and his fighting spirit was high.

Through this clash, his new peak early-stage Void Immortal realm had already stabilized. Battle was indeed the sharpest whetstone.

“What arrogance!”

Huang Wuji’s words were no doubt a mockery of him. Wang Ba shouted fiercely with a savage expression, unleashing his qi as he charged forth in an instant with the momentum of an army. The pressure alone was enough to terrify the distant onlookers.

Puchi!

In an instant, he appeared before Huang Wuji, spear tearing through the air, ripping the void apart as it thrust straight for his chest.

Clang!

Huang Wuji raised his halberd to defend himself, but was pushed back repeatedly from the impact, shattering the void under his feet with his heavy footsteps.

Wang Ba’s spear arrived in an instant; metal screamed against metal.

Clang!

Boom!

The shockwave from their clash spread out instantly like a wave of energy, sweeping out furiously in all directions. Primeval qi scattered wildly and violently, blocking the crowd’s sight.

“Did that clash decide the winner?”

“How did the clash go?”

“Who lost? Who lost?”

The spectators held their breath, hearts pounding.

Wang Ba had failed to take down Huang Wuji quickly, which was obviously a slap to his face. Now, enraged, he unleashed his full strength without restraint. The question burned in every mind: could Huang Wuji withstand this storm?
