Chapter 1394: Chapter 1394

With a dull thud, Ding Fan's palm clashed fiercely with Hao Chun's fist.

Hao Chun staggered, his body violently retreating, while Ding Fan remained unmoved. At this moment, Hao Chun was extremely shocked. Not only was he forced to retreat, but a strong Arctic Chill was also coursing through his body, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

The outcome was decided in just one move.

Everyone witnessing this scene was in astonishment. Who would have thought that Ding Fan could repel Hao Chun with just one palm strike, even though he responded a moment later? It was simply unbelievable! After all, Hao Chun was a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, while Ding Fan was only at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, the gap between them was not ordinary!

For a moment, everyone felt their minds were overloaded; too many astonishing facts were on display today. A Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator was able to clash with two Nascent Soul Mid Stage cultivators, and even a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator was defeated in one move.

Zhou Ruoran, witnessing this scene, couldn't help but feel excited. Simultaneously, she was incredibly shocked, unable to believe Ding Fan's strength had reached such a level! Even cultivators at the Nascent Soul Late Stage were not his opponents now!

An excited Taozi was astounded to the core, having witnessed Ding Fan's effortless defeat of Hao Chun. Remember, Hao Chun was a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, which was far from easy to believe!

Taozi was shocked that such power was handled with just one palm by Ding Fan, which was remarkably extraordinary!

Although Zhou Ruoran and Taozi were somewhat proud upon seeing this, they didn't completely relax, knowing the crisis was not over. Even though Ding Fan defeated Hao Chun, they were still within the Jade Maiden Sect.

With Senior Sister Zhou Xiaochun present, they knew she would not let things go easily. Once more disciples arrived, no matter how powerful Ding Fan was, he couldn't be a match for a sect!

For a moment, Taozi was filled with worry and unease, still mistrustful of Ding Fan's capabilities against Hao Chun, a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, naturally stronger than average. And Ding Fan was merely at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, defeating a Late Stage opponent seemed impossible by common sense.

Zhou Ruoran, equally worried about Ding Fan, knew he just had some upper hand, even knocking the opponent back. But the opponent, being a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, wouldn't be so easily dealt with; his techniques surely weren't limited to just that.

After all, the opponent was a core disciple of the Great Gate Sect. Such status wasn't obtainable by ordinary cultivators. As a core disciple, his techniques would be particularly numerous, nothing like those of the Jade Maiden Sect.

It took Hao Chun quite some time to expel some of the Arctic Chill from his body, only a bit was expelled. His shock grew at how formidable this mysterious Arctic Chill was, as his True Qi couldn't completely expel it.

Hao Chun restrained the Arctic Chill with True Qi, looking at Ding Fan with anger and caution. He realized Ding Fan wasn't just a simple Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator.

Ding Fan's victory over two Nascent Soul Mid Stage cultivators was due to true strength, not luck.

Yet Hao Chun despised him; despite some strength, he was just a Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator, merely using some unorthodox means, incomparable to himself!

He was, after all, a core disciple of the Great Gate Sect, not someone to be trifled with!

A treasured sword appeared in Hao Chun's hand. With a slight shake, the sword sheath flew out, plunging vigorously into the ground, revealing a shimmering longsword in his hand.

This was no ordinary sword; it was awarded to Hao Chun by his master, the Great Gate Sect's leader, when he became a core disciple. Hao Chun cherished this treasured sword and used it sparingly, only taking it out to feed it with blood in battle!

Hao Chun was now filled with killing intent towards Ding Fan and was determined to kill him today!

Using his toes for propulsion, Hao Chun's body made several strange transitions before appearing in front of Ding Fan. Instantly, his longsword slashed down fiercely at Ding Fan, slicing through the air like a cold, swift moonbeam!

Seeing this, Ding Fan abruptly retreated, clenching his palms into fists, incessantly striking back. In an instant, as he dodged the longsword's advances, his fists fiercely countered Hao Chun's strikes. Every attack from Hao Chun's sword was skillfully parried by Ding Fan, with some parts of Hao Chun taking hard punches from Ding Fan. The rıghtful source is 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹⟡𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⟡𝙣𝙚𝙩

Hao Chun felt distressed but his longsword, once in motion, was like an unstopping killing machine, mercilessly attacking Ding Fan without any hint of backing down. Despite the relentless hits from Ding Fan, Hao Chun never wavered or hesitated.

Clearly, he wants to seize the moment to completely kill Ding Fan. After all, in martial arts, achieving mastery requires training speed to a certain degree; all martial arts in the world are invincible if fast! Hao Chun understood that although he had taken a few punches from the opponent, apart from extreme physical pain, there wasn't any life-threatening danger. But if his longsword barely grazed the opponent, the latter would definitely pay a heavy price!

His longsword was definitely not just for show!

Ding Fan clearly felt that compared to the previous two Nascent Soul Mid Stage female cultivators, although the opponent was fighting alone, the gap in cultivation was quite significant. Obviously, whether it was speed or attacks, Hao Chun was far more intense than those two female cultivators.

Yet, Ding Fan's face remained quite calm. Clearly, no matter how fierce the opponent's attacks were, they could not match his fist technique. Ding Fan believed that relying on the fist techniques from the stele, no matter how sharp the opponent's sword was, it wouldn't harm him in the slightest. Moreover, Ding Fan was quite satisfied with his current state.

The opponent's longsword hadn't even touched the corner of his clothes, but his fists had definitely landed several punches on the opponent. Although these punches weren't as powerful as his first punch, they were evidently still substantial.

Moreover, Ding Fan's fists contained the existence of Arctic Chill, and he believed that given a few more breaths, the opponent would definitely collapse!

Hao Chun's longsword continually flew towards Ding Fan, with the sword lights fiercely flashing. Yet, it was unable to harm Ding Fan in the slightest. Hao Chun's face looked quite unpleasant for a moment, even turning pale, as it was clear he already sensed he might not last. At this moment, although the opponent's fists were constantly banging on his body without being too itchy or painful,

the opponent's Arctic Chill was clearly unbearable. Hao Chun's hand speed had noticeably decreased immediately.

Seeing this scene, everyone felt very shocked. Clearly, they hadn't expected Ding Fan's movement technique to be so incredible, that the opponent's fierce longsword was still unable to harm him, and yet Ding Fan's fists were continuously pounding onto Hao Chun.

Even though Ding Fan needed to pay attention to the variation in body positioning, so the power of each punch hitting the opponent wasn't that strong, Ding Fan evidently wasn't relying on power to win, but using Arctic Chill to slowly erode the opponent. At this moment, Ding Fan's estimation was correct; in no time, the opponent was clearly about to fail!

Right now, Hao Chun looked at Ding Fan and spoke with difficulty. Clearly, he completely understood Ding Fan's pattern now, but it seemed too late, as the Arctic Chill in his body was already too much. Hao Chun felt it keenly in his heart, if he didn't expel the Arctic Chill from his body soon, it would undoubtedly damage his Dantian significantly, having a huge impact on his future cultivation!

At this moment, upon hearing the words from the opponent, Ding Fan couldn't help but sneer in his heart. The opponent actually had the nerve to utter these two words, making Ding Fan feel a bit amused.

"Since you want openness and honesty, then let me give you that!"

Now, with an icy voice, Ding Fan spoke, and then his flying sword unsheathed swiftly!

Ding Fan's flying sword pierced accurately and viciously at Hao Chun. In an instant, the sound clashing with the opponent's longsword was crisp and clear. In just a short amount of time, Hao Chun was already unscathed. Hao Chun's clothes immediately turned red stained with fresh blood, and fresh blood continued to flow constantly at this moment.

Hao Chun was utterly shocked in his heart. Now, even if he was even more foolish, he could clearly see the opponent's swordsmanship was definitely superior to his. Although this was somewhat hard for Hao Chun to believe, the reality was right before his eyes. He had no choice but to believe!

Hao Chun could imagine in his mind that if the opponent started with the sword, it was very likely he would have already died on the ground. But the opponent didn't do that, Hao Chun knew in his heart that the opponent wanted to torment him!

For a moment, Hao Chun's longsword increasingly lost strength, while the opponent's longsword continuously attacked him. In an instant, Ding Fan's flying sword kept cutting Hao Chun's skin, making Hao Chun look like a bloody figure.

Seeing this scene, everyone around felt shocked in their hearts, and couldn't help but intake cold air, feeling a bit sorry for Hao Chun. One must know the injuries the opponent had caused weren't something a cultivator could handle. No one had expected Ding Fan to be so formidable, tormenting Hao Chun so miserably.

At this moment, the cultivators brought by Hao Chun saw Hao Chun's condition, and knew they could no longer stand by without taking action. At this point, Hao Chun was even somewhat numbed by Ding Fan's flying sword cuts. Initially, they dared not step forward to help because they feared Hao Chun would blame them.

But midway, they were already somewhat intimidated by Ding Fan's methods. Clearly, if they rushed forward, they were very likely facing a dead end. Yet they had no retreat now; if they didn't go up and rescue Hao Chun, Hao Chun would only meet his death!
