Chapter 481: The Battle for the Capture of the City

Not only were the monks talking in private, but in fact, a few days ago, when Li Jianfeng came to the Ethereal Palace and volunteered to come to deal with Su Aotian, it also caused controversy among the high-level officials of the Ethereal Heavenly Palace. According to Su Aotian's performance, Fang Shenghan in the Dacheng period died in his hands, although Li Jianfeng has an ethereal divine sword, he is a combined cultivation, compared to Fang Shenghan who has a divine phoenix armor, it is far from good in all aspects, and it is speculated by common sense that Li Jianfeng is by no means Su Aotian's opponent, and it is even very likely to die.

But there are also people who object, one is that the monks recognized that the battle between Su Aotian and Fang Shenghan was full of too many variables, Su Aotian did not win by overwhelming his strength, but took the means of grinding, plus Fang Shenghan was too light on the enemy, and fell into the trap designed by Su Aotian, so he fell with hatred. Su Aotian's cultivation is not so strong, and Li Jianfeng may not be an opponent.

This part of the monks who supported Li Jianfeng to challenge put forward a more important reason, and it was this reason that made the high-level of the Ethereal Heavenly Palace excited, and after some disputes, they made up their minds to allow Li Jianfeng to go to Dangyang City. Their reason was that after Fang Shenghan's fall, Chengtianmen's prestige had been severely hit, and it could almost be said that it had shaken the foundation of Chengtianmen, and after Li Jianfeng was recognized by the Ethereal Divine Sword, his reputation rose and he had the potential to chase after Fang Shenghan. In this case, if Li Jianfeng went to challenge Su Aotian and was able to win the battle, it would inevitably push the Ethereal Heavenly Palace to an unprecedented height, and it was very likely that he would surpass the Chengtian Gate in one fell swoop and replace it as the first sect of the Chengtian Continent.

As the traditional power of the Chengtian Continent, although the Ethereal Heavenly Palace and the Chengtian Gate are in the same breath and have related interests, they are not monolithic, and there is no contradiction at all. Moreover, since Fang Shenghan was born, the prestige and power of Chengtian Gate have been rapidly expanded, and the name of the first sect of the Chengtian Continent has become more and more resounding, and there is gradually a tendency to surpass its peers and leave all the top forces far behind, which is actually what makes the Ethereal Heavenly Palace, including the Zhongnan Purple Mansion and other allies of Chengtian Gate, both envious and worried.

Because their current strength, even if it is not as good as Chengtianmen, it is not much different, under the oppression of the huge forces led by the Luojia family in Xuanwu Prefecture, the common enemy, they can still unite as one and advance and retreat together; if the strength of Chengtianmen far exceeds their own, then one day, will their own sect be like Zhaoyang Tianzong, no longer qualified to sit on an equal footing with Chengtianmen, but become its pawn, right-hand man, charging for Chengtianmen, waving the flag and shouting?

The upper echelons of the Ethereal Heavenly Palace had already considered these circumstances, and had done their best not to let the situation develop in this direction. Therefore, after the side that supported Li Jianfeng put forward this reason, even the side that opposed it before was moved. After weighing the pros and cons, the Ethereal Heavenly Palace made up its mind and agreed to Li Jianfeng's request. Of course, they also made all preparations, and the worst case scenario was that even if Li Jianfeng was sacrificed, they would have to get the Ethereal Divine Sword back. For this, they are still very confident, because the Ethereal Divine Sword is not like the Divine Phoenix Armor, it was only obtained by the Chengtianmen later, and from the day the Ethereal Divine Sword appeared, it chose the Ethereal Heavenly Palace. This made the monks of the Ethereal Heavenly Palace firmly believe that no matter what happened to the owner of the Ethereal Divine Sword, the Ethereal Divine Sword would never approve of sword cultivation other than the Ethereal Heavenly Palace. Because they knew that the best sword cultivation in the Chengtian Continent would only be in the Ethereal Heavenly Palace.

Since Li Jianfeng got the recognition of the Ethereal Divine Sword, his status has risen by leaps and bounds, although he has not been accepted by the contemporary palace master, but he has also worshipped a distracted monk Tianfeng who has cultivated profoundly. And the reason why there is such an arrangement is because what the Master of Tianfeng has cultivated all his life is the most powerful Qiangang quenching technique in the Ethereal Heavenly Palace, and his attack power is known as the first person in the Ethereal Heavenly Palace. Li Jianfeng practiced with him, and he could maximize the effect of the Ethereal Divine Sword.

And in private, the Venerable Master of Tianfeng also told Li Jianfeng that this time he didn't have to live or die with Su Aotian, and he didn't even want to be too obsessed with winning or losing, as long as he could walk down from the arena alive, it would be a victory. Compared with Su Aotian's challenge to Fang Shenghan, the status of the Ethereal Heavenly Palace and Su Aotian has reversed, and Li Jianfeng has become the weaker side, and he is not favored by everyone. In this case, Su Aotian's strategy was used by the Ethereal Heavenly Palace, as long as Li Jianfeng could resist Su Aotian's killing moves, then his reputation would be greatly boosted, and the prestige of the Ethereal Heavenly Palace would rise to a new height.

For this challenge, Li Jianfeng's heart is full of expectations. With the Ethereal Divine Sword, his self-confidence was unprecedentedly high, although the sect and the master had told him not to be careless and not to be greedy, but he was not very convinced. Su Aotian's various legends not only shocked him, but also inspired him to be competitive, and being able to knock down this legendary figure in one fell swoop was undoubtedly a sensation in the world.

The three days passed in a flash, and the two sides almost unanimously arrived at the arena. Li Jianfeng was extremely impressed by Su Aotian, although he had only met Su Aotian once, but it was that time that almost made him and Zhang Tianxiang die. And today, Su Aotian is clear-minded, and his face is simply delicate and cute compared to the hideous at that time, although the aura on his body is a hundred times stronger than at the beginning, but in Li Jianfeng's eyes, there is naturally no sense of fear and despair.

And Su Aotian didn't notice these two people at all back then, and told him in Luo Wentian that this Li Jianfeng and Zhang Tianxiang of Chengtian Sect could be said to be thanks to him, and they ascended to the top sect of Chengtian Continent in one step, but he himself had no impression at all.

Standing on the arena, after the ban was raised, Su Aotian began to seriously examine his opponent, but after a check, he had a strange feeling, although this Li Jianfeng in front of him, although it was the second time he had met, he had never seen it at all, and for some reason it gave him a feeling of closeness!

This strange feeling puzzled Su Aotian, and he couldn't be hostile to Li Jianfeng for a while, but he was regarded as a contempt by Li Jianfeng. Li Jianfeng also knew that apart from the ethereal divine sword, he had no other advantages in front of Su Aotian, and he no longer tried it, turned his hand back, and pulled out the divine sword he was carrying.

"Choking", the essence is shining, this world-shaking artifact, the sharpest thing in the Chengtian Continent, suddenly appeared in front of everyone!

Almost all of the people present saw this famous divine sword for the first time, and they couldn't help but widen their eyes, hold their breath, and watch carefully. At first glance, the Ethereal Excalibur is not much different from the size of the ordinary long sword, but a turquoise light on the sword body shines, like a stream of autumn water flowing continuously, making people feel that it is full of spirituality, like a living thing.

Suddenly, the green light was flourishing, and the soft sword light suddenly became dazzling, and the forced person involuntarily closed his eyes, still feeling that his eyes were tingling, and he wanted to cry. A coercion diffused between heaven and earth is coming, even if it is unstoppable through the prohibition, you can imagine what kind of burden Su Aotian will bear in the face of this coercion!

Li Jianfeng's whole body was full of aura, urging with all his strength, and the dazzling light made Su Aotian unable to look directly, but the divine sense sensed the changes in the ethereal divine sword clearly. He sensed that this artifact was under the urging of Li Jianfeng's aura, as if it had suddenly come to life, and the emerald green sword light that burst out from the tip of the sword was far longer than the sword body, firmly locking his whole body, no matter how he moved, he couldn't avoid the sharp edge of the sword!

But what shocked him even more was not the aggressive momentum emanating from this sharp artifact, although this power shocked him, but he could feel that the ethereal divine sword in the current Li Jianfeng's hands was the same as the divine phoenix armor on Fang Shenghan's body, limited by the cultivator's own cultivation, far from being able to exert its full power. Even without the distraction power of recognizing the Lord, driving this ethereal divine sword can inspire far more than what Li Jianfeng is doing now. It's just that under Li Jianfeng's full play, he can clearly perceive Li Jianfeng's soul is fully engaged and unreserved, and in this fully exerted soul, that trace of familiar intimacy is getting stronger and stronger!

Suddenly, Su Aotian's body shook, and an incredible look flashed in his eyes, he remembered, isn't this familiar feeling of closeness exactly the same as the aura that filled Shui Qingrou and Song Qili's body?

After many years, although the voices and smiles of the two of them are still in front of them, and they cannot be forgotten all the time, but their breath has been buried in the dust of memory with the passage of time, so that this sudden familiar breath did not connect him with Shui Qingrou and Song Xiali. At this moment of lightning, Su Aotian had already concluded that the person in front of him had a common experience with the two of them and himself!

So who is this person in front of you, the answer is already coming out!

Su Aotian's reaction also clearly fell on the eyes of the monks who were watching, and those who were not familiar with him felt that he was forced by Li Jianfeng's sharp breath to look indifferent, looking unfathomable and confident, while Li Hattian frowned slightly. Of course, he knew that Su Aotian didn't do it on purpose, but at this moment, he was distracted!

Li Jianfeng did it wholeheartedly, under Su Aotian's inaction, his momentum skyrocketed uncontrollably, and after climbing to the peak, he waved the ethereal sword, and slashed it head, and the terrifying power of destroying the world poured out with the sword momentum to Su Aotian.
