The chilling thunder energy surrounding him became more harmonious and restrained.
Zhang Zhiwei looked at him, his lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing.
He simply turned around and walked step by step to the window.
He opened the window.
The cool moonlight, mixed with the slightly chilly night breeze from the mountains, rushed in instantly, ruffling his gray hair and beard.
The moonlight shone on his wrinkled face, casting a long, lonely shadow.
He gazed at the bright moon outside the window, and once again let out a long sigh that only he could hear.
"Yun Yuan, Yun Yuan, why do you insist on dragging Chu Lan into this mess?"
On the day of the final, the sky was clear and blue.
Under a clear blue sky, the Longhu Mountain martial arts arena was bustling with activity, and banners fluttered in the wind.
On the highest arena of the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony, Zhang Chulan and Zhang Lingyu faced each other from afar.
One of them was carefree and irresponsible, wearing a faded tracksuit and flip-flops, looking like he had just woken up in a university dormitory and run out.
He is the shameless "unyielding" who, with his unpredictable "good luck" and amazing lightning magic, has gone all the way down the dark path.
The other is aloof and cold, dressed in white, with a figure as upright as a spear piercing the sky, and an otherworldly temperament as if he were not of this world.
He is the one hailed as the next generation leader of Longhu Mountain, a prodigy who has attracted worldwide attention.
At this moment, two completely different temperaments formed an incredibly stark contrast.
The audience below the stage had already been divided into two distinct camps, with shouts of encouragement rising and falling, almost shaking the clouds apart.
"when--!"
The starting bell for the match was both melodious and solemn.
The sound of the bell seemed to possess some kind of magic, instantly suppressing all the noise and bringing silence to the entire training ground.
The moment the bell rang, Zhang Lingyu launched the first attack!
He made no attempt to test the waters; the warmth of camaraderie in his eyes had long been replaced by a chilling fighting spirit.
He pushed the Yin Five Thunder within his body to its limit!
A low shout came from his mouth; the voice wasn't loud, but it carried a chilling edge.
Countless jets of jet-black lightning, like thousands of venomous snakes ready to devour their prey, erupted from his body.
The lightning was not as dazzling and domineering as Yang Wu Lei, but it carried a chilling and terrifying aura that seemed to freeze the soul!
These lightning bolts intertwined to form a huge black lightning net, covering the sky and obscuring the sun, enveloping Zhang Chulan completely!
This move, in terms of its wide range and power, far surpasses any of his previous moves against Wang Bing.
Clearly, he had already regarded Zhang Chulan as a true opponent, and his first move was a fatal one!
A gasp of surprise erupted from the audience.
Everyone was horrified by the hellish sight, as if their very souls were being sucked into the deep darkness.
However, Zhang Chulan showed no panic in the face of this devastating attack.
He took a deep breath, and for the first time, a fierce fighting spirit ignited in his eyes, which always carried a hint of cynicism.
That fighting spirit was like a volcano that had been ignited, scorching and unrestrained, determined to burn away all obstacles in its path.
"Well done!"
He roared and pushed the Golden Light Spell and Thunder Technique within his body to their limits!
Golden energy exploded around him, condensing into something almost tangible, making him appear like a war god descended to earth.
Golden lightning exploded around him!
The lightning was no longer scattered as before, but condensed into extremely refined golden arcs, shining like the sun, fierce and domineering, carrying a sacred aura that purified all things!
Two completely different lightning techniques, one yin and one yang, collided violently on the arena that everyone was watching!
The black lightning net collided fiercely with the golden lightning in the air!
In an instant, black and white intertwined, and lightning flashed everywhere!
A terrifying shockwave emanated from the two of them, sweeping wildly outwards and scraping a thick layer of stone dust off the hard bluestone arena!
Two extreme forces collided, crushed, and annihilated fiercely in the arena.
The blinding light caused everyone to instinctively close their eyes.
The deafening explosion caused countless people to experience a buzzing sound in their ears and temporarily lose their hearing.
When the light subsided and everyone opened their eyes again, they saw a huge energy ball in the center of the arena, made of interwoven golden and black lightning, flashing, expanding, and contracting wildly.
They were... evenly matched!
Chapter 177 Unexpected Defeat
A terrifying shockwave swept wildly from the two of them, scraping off a thick layer of stone dust from the hard bluestone arena!
Zhang Chulan's body trembled violently, and the bluestone slab beneath his feet cracked inch by inch, but he ultimately withstood the blow.
Although the golden shield was dim and covered with spiderweb-like cracks, it did not break.
"It...it blocked it?!"
A gasp of disbelief erupted from the audience.
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhang Lingyu's eyes. He hadn't expected that this seemingly shallow "junior brother" would have such a high level of cultivation in the Golden Light Mantra.
But he did not pause at all; when one attack failed, he launched another.
He made a hand seal, his figure gliding backward, creating distance between himself and Zhang Chulan.
"Yin Lei · Shui Zang".
He uttered a low growl, and the dark lightning around him instantly became viscous, as if it had transformed into a flowing black liquid, carrying a sinister aura that corroded everything, swirling around him.
The next moment, the black liquid lightning transformed into dozens of jet-black water arrows, slicing through the air with a hissing sound, and came from all directions, blocking all of Zhang Chulan's escape routes, shooting towards him!
This move is no longer a pure clash of forces, but rather the most unpredictable and unpredictable transformation within the Yin Five Thunders.
Water belongs to Yin, and its nature is extremely soft and penetrating everywhere.
This Water-Dirty Thunder Arrow may not seem as domineering as the previous palm strike, but the insidious thunder energy it contains, once it touches you even slightly, will invade your meridians like a maggot clinging to your bone, corroding your dantian, making it impossible to defend against.
Faced with this overwhelming offensive, Zhang Chulan's expression finally turned serious.
He took a deep breath, simultaneously activating the Golden Light Mantra and Yang Five Thunder within his body to their maximum.
"Thunderbolt! Lightning!"
Golden lightning exploded around him, no longer condensing in his palm as before, but transforming into countless fine golden electric snakes that roamed wildly around him, forming an absolute defensive circle made of pure lightning.
laugh!laugh!laugh!
The black water arrow and the golden electric snake collided and annihilated violently in mid-air.
In an instant, black and white intertwined, and lightning flashed everywhere!
The terrifying clash of energy seemed to lower the temperature of the entire arena.
At this moment, the two completely different lightning techniques displayed equally astonishing destructive power.
The two moved with lightning speed, leaping and darting across the massive arena. Each exchange of blows unleashed a deafening roar and a blinding brilliance.
Yin Five Thunder is chilling and unpredictable, while Yang Five Thunder is fierce and domineering.
The Golden Light Mantra is heavy and solid, while the Water Dirty Thunder is all-pervasive.
At this moment, two completely different paths were most vividly displayed in the lives of these two young people.
The audience below the stage was already stunned and completely captivated.
This is no longer a simple martial arts competition; it is clearly a battle of the most outstanding thunder magic among the younger generation of Longhu Mountain, a battle worthy of being recorded in history!
Sitting on the high platform, Zhang Zhiwei watched the two figures locked in a fierce battle. A complex and unfathomable emotion flashed in his eyes, which were always half-open.
There was relief and pride, but more than anything, there was a deep sense of reluctance.
As the battle raged on, Zhang Lingyu, unable to break through Zhang's defenses, finally unleashed the arrogance of a chosen one.
He roared and pushed the Yin Five Thunder within his body to an unprecedented extreme.
"Black Arc - Heavenly Net!"
In an instant, countless jet-black lightning bolts, like thousands of venomous snakes ready to devour their prey, erupted from his body.
The lightning intertwined into a massive black net that blotted out the sky, carrying a terrifying aura that seemed capable of freezing the soul, and swept over Zhang Chulan in an overwhelming manner!
This move, in terms of its wide range and power, far surpasses any of his previous moves.
He intends to use this move to end this battle completely!
However, just as he poured all his energy into this powerful strike, preparing to finish the battle in one fell swoop...
He suddenly felt a faint, yet deadly, stagnation in the flow of Qi within his body.
A strange sense of weakness welled up in my heart without warning.
The Qi that was originally as responsive and unstoppable as an extension of one's own body seemed to be wrapped in an invisible layer of adhesive at this moment, slowing down the speed of Qi gathering.
It was this fleeting flaw that Zhang Chulan, who had been focused and highly concentrated, keenly seized upon!
"It's now!"
An unprecedented glint flashed in Zhang Chulan's eyes.
Instead of choosing to defend, he gambled all his strength on this fleeting, one-of-a-kind opportunity!
He pushed his white lightning magic, which incorporated the essence of the "Purifying Heaven and Earth Divine Mantra," to a limit that even he himself had never reached before!
"Thunderbolt - Purification!"
A dazzling, pure white bolt of lightning erupted from the center of his palms!
The lightning was not the golden color of traditional Yang Five Thunder, but a pure white color without any impurities.
