Chapter 593: One-on-One with Golden Peng
"Alright, be careful; I'll go help your Spiritual Beast!"
Xuan Kong nodded, then immediately dashed toward Thunder and Lightning Vajra.
He could sense that Zhao Letian's cultivation level had already matched his, and perhaps, was even stronger!
Although he did not know how Zhao Letian had achieved this, or how he could have broken through to King-level Perfection in such a short time... he believed that with Zhao Letian's talent, possessing such cultivation now, he could definitely fight a fierce battle with this Monarch Level Golden Peng!
"King-level Perfection? Boy, did you hide your cultivation before?"
Seeing Zhao Letian's significant cultivation level, the Monarch Level Golden Peng was also taken aback, showing an incredible expression in his eyes.
He remembered clearly, not long ago, Zhao Letian was only at the Middle Stage of King-level, and in a blink of an eye, he had advanced to King-level Perfection? Since when had the cultivation upgrade of King-level Experts become as simple as drinking water?
However, he preferred to believe that Zhao Letian had intentionally hidden his cultivation earlier.
But the question is, could a mere King-level Expert really hide his cultivation in front of him?
"Why speak so much nonsense? Take this!"
Zhao Letian sneered and swung his hand, slashing out a Destructive Sword Light hundreds of feet long, carrying a force that seemed capable of destroying heavens and earth, fiercely slashing towards the Monarch Level Golden Peng!
"Hmph! Boy, you think you can contest with me? You're courting death!"
The Monarch Level Golden Peng scoffed, swinging the golden longsword in his hand, equally slashing out a golden Sword Light hundreds of feet long, relentlessly striking Zhao Letian!
Though he spoke lightly, the expression in his eyes was extremely grave!
Because he could clearly sense that the power of Zhao Letian's sword had enormously changed from before, now threatening enough to pose a threat to him!
"Boom!"
The Sword Lights of both men collided in mid-air, causing a terrifying wave of energy and a horrifying Sword Qi Storm that instantly swept across dozens of miles, pulverizing the demon beast army to dust, exploding their bodies!
And the result was that both men's Sword Lights had cancelled each other out, with neither gaining the upper hand!
"This is impossible! Boy, you're just a mere King-level, how could you possibly contest with me?"
Seeing that both their attacks seemed equally matched, the Monarch Level Golden Peng's eyes revealed an incredible shock.
He had never imagined that a mere mortal of the Human Clan at the King-level could dare contest with him!
After all, he had killed numerous Monarch Level Experts of the Human Clan, so it was unimaginable that today he would be helpless against a King-level human!
"So strong!"
Meanwhile, Xuan Kong and the spectators in the city, witnessing the outcome of Zhao Letian and the Monarch Level Golden Peng's fight, couldn't help but reveal a shocked expression.
They had not expected that someone at the King-level could be strong enough to clash hard with a Monarch level great demon!
"Is this all your strength? The Golden Peng Clan, barely considered royalty among the Demon Clan, you truly disappoint me. Use your secret technique of power, otherwise, you stand no chance at all!"
Zhao Letian, holding his longsword, looked at the Monarch Level Golden Peng with calm and disdain and spoke.
His Arrogant Sword Skill was not an ordinary swordsmanship; its power was boundless and capable of battling across higher ranks!
Without using the Secret Technique, that Monarch Level Golden Peng could not pose any threat to him!
"Damn! Boy, let me show you that in front of the Secret Technique Power of a Monarch Level Expert, a King-level Martial Artist is but an ant!"
The Monarch Level Golden Peng roared furiously, releasing a formidable power of the Secret Technique, enveloping Zhao Letian, and once again, slashed with full force, striking at Zhao Letian anew!
That previous strike, he underestimated Zhao Letian and did not employ the power of the Secret Technique. This time, with the suppression of the Secret Technique's power, Zhao Letian's strength would be greatly reduced, and he would surely be slain with a single strike!
"Secret Technique Power? Truly profound, as if it contains the Essence of Heaven and Earth... This Golden Peng's Secret Technique Power is of the Gold Attribute, which can enhance his attack and defense... How should I comprehend my Secret Technique Power..."
Zhao Letian showed no signs of panic, attentively feeling the opponent's Secret Technique Power, and with composure, he once again unleashed a Destructive Sword Light hundreds of feet long, fearlessly slamming into the golden sword light slashed by the Monarch Level Golden Peng!
"Boom!"
Moments later, their sword lights collided once more, exploding into another terrifying energy storm!
This time, the Monarch Level Golden Peng was unharmed, but Zhao Letian was blasted away!
"Huh? He wasn't injured?"
However, although the Monarch Level Golden Peng had the upper hand, he frowned again, appeared unsatisfied, and incredulously observed Zhao Letian.
To know, this strike was meant to directly kill Zhao Letian!
Merely repelling Zhao Letian would naturally not satisfy him.
More importantly, although Zhao Letian was repelled, he remained composed and unhurt!
"Normally, the power of the Secret Technique is transformed from the corresponding Power of Will... If I comprehend the Sword Dao Will, then I can understand the Sword Dao Secret Technique... But the problem is, what I have grasped is Arrogant Will... This thing seems to have no corresponding Secret Technique Power; surely, there isn't such a thing as an Arrogant Secret Technique..."
Zhao Letian paid no heed to the Monarch Level Golden Peng's feelings, and while retreating, he continued to ponder how to comprehend the Secret Technique Power.
Now, his cultivation had reached King-level Perfection, and his Martial Arts Realm was also at the pinnacle of Will!
As for his Physical Strength, it was strong enough to contend directly with Monarch Level demon beasts. That's why, although he was forced back by the terrifying power held in the sword light of the Monarch Level Golden Peng, he was largely unscathed. After all, a body comparable to a Monarch Level Demon Clan was not so easily injured.
And next, as long as he could comprehend the power of the Secret Technique, he would be able to directly breakthrough to the Monarch Level!
"Should I give up the Arrogant Will and breakthrough from the Sword Dao Will?"
Zhao Letian's eyebrows slightly furrowed, thinking somewhat reluctantly.
Although he had also grasped the Sword Dao Will, there was still some distance to the pinnacle of Will, and making a breakthrough based on the Sword Dao Will might be difficult to achieve in a short time!
"My Arrogant Sword Skill requires a strong sense of pride, the stronger the pride, the greater the power. If I abandon the Arrogant Will, what use would my swordsmanship be? Huh? The stronger the pride, the greater the power... What would happen if my Arrogant Will could rise unbounded?"
Zhao Letian suddenly had a thought and pondered introspectively.
