The flowing metal fluid congealed together into a long sword.

Lin Qian’s Infused Vitality Equipment was slightly different from Lei Qian’s Vitality Equipment.

The crimson gold lighting bolt enveloped the Vitality Equipment Core and the Vitality Equipment Piece, forming an opaque cage. There was no way for anyone outside to see the happenings within.

Quickly, he stretched out his hands into the berserk howling Crimson Gold Lightning. From within, Lin Qian pulled out a jet-black sword.

While it may be completely dark and black, the surface was glossy, shining under the light. On the shiny surface, intricate white designs flowed all across. The three foot long sword was wider than familiar swords by two finger spaces, totalling at four finger spaces. The crimson gold lightning crawled up the blade. As it engulfed the sword, Lin Qian began emanating an unbelievably tyrannical presence. This black sword was the Tempestuous Night Blade, one of Lin Qian’s Martial Souls.

Whang!

The blade body vibrated rapidly as Lin Qian brandished it around in the air. Thrusting its tip at Lei Qian, he smirked, “Rumours may not be the truth. Look! Who said I could not achieve Vitality Equipment Infusion?”

It was not just Lei QIan that was blown away by Lin Qian. Everyone present was dumbfounded.

Lin Qian had a terrifyingly muscular physique, his Soul Energy was so compact and voluminous that it was unbelievable. With these two blessings, he breezed his way to be peerless within the Materialised Vitality Stage. At this point, his achievements had already been challenging to accept for many.

Thankfully, it was more stomachable when the rumours of Lin Qian being unable to Vitality Equipment Infuse spread. This genius could never break into Nirvana Stage. Should such a prodigious child, who went against the simple laws of cultivation breakthrough into Nirvana stage, the Heaven’s must be kidding about!

After they learnt of this fact, the envy, jealousy and hatred of the many Universal Phenomenon Sect disciples quelled and were replaced by pure contempt.

In reality, the cynical front was simply put up to cover and suppress their fear and worry of Lin Qian fast progress up the cultivation ranks. Their fear of a presence like Lin Qian would continue to reign supreme after his breakthrough to Nirvana Stage, crushing them from the top down.

Alas, not a single sarcastic word could form now. Lin Qian could Vitality Equipment Infuse just like any other practitioner, although it was slightly different from the common ones they knew. But, it did not change the fact that he did it.

Which also meant that Lin Qian had hopes of breaking to Nirvana Stage one day.

When this revelation crushed onto the Inner Disciples, their faces curled up. The day they had feared the most still arrived. They could already feel the pressure of having an invulnerable genius looming over their heads at every moment from the day Lin Qian broke into Nirvana Stage.

“Hmm, how odd. Lin Qian Infused Vitality Equipment looks slightly different.” Looking at the Tempestuous Night Blade in Lin Qian’s hand, Qin Wushuang was perplexed.

“Hmph! Must be a damaged Martial Soul resulting in an incomplete Infusion of the Vitality Equipment!” Sarcastically, Lei Heng snapped. Despite his tone everyone around could tell his face had fallen deep and dark, his eyes were somber. Evidently, he had never expected Lin Qian to be able to accomplish the Vitality Equipment Infusion.

“Brother?” When Qin Wushunag turned to face Wei Wushuang, he felt his brother trembling. Wei Wushuang gaze was fixed on the Infused Vitality Equipment, his breathing rapid and substantial, his eyes teary with his emotions running wild.

After the Infusion, the Vitality Equipment that was formed would usually be of the size and shape the Practitioner wishes it to be. Just like the Rushing Thunder Blade in Lei Qian’s hands, the blade was far shorter and thinner than the Tempestuous Night Blade on Lin Qian hands.

Most importantly, the Infused Vitality Equipment on Lei Qian’s hands was entirely purple, following the colour of the Vitality Equipment Core and the Ve pieces that were used.

That was not the case for Lin Qian. His Vitality Equipment Core and Vitality Equipment Piece were Crimson Gold. Yet the Infused Vitality Equipment was pitch black, even having intricate patterns and designs carved, regal and elegant.

“Lin Qian, he has won.” Sometime later, Wei Wushuang muttered falteringly and slowly, “He definitely won, Lei Qian, is doomed to die.”

Wei Wushuang words drew a confused gaze from Qian Wushuang and the Disciplinary Elder. Even Lei Heng did not erupt in fury after hearing the absolute confidence in Wei Wushuang words.

Being of the Universal Phenomenon Duo, the Battle Emperor Wei Wushuang was actually scared, trembling and speechless by his own disciples Infused Vitality Equipment. Within the Vitality Equipment, there must be a terrifying secret hidden.

“Brother, could it be that Lin Qian infused Vitality Equipment was actually not incomplete, but there were other reasons involved in this?” Qin Wushuang quickly asked Wei Wushuang.

“Incomplete? How is that possible? In any case, all of you are too fixated on his Vitality Equipment. Don’t you find any other things suspicious?” Looking at the befuddled expression on his brother, Wei Wushuang finally pulled himself together, slowly shaking his head.

“Lin Qian.. isn’t he still in the Materialised VItality Stage?” Suddenly, an absurd fact escaped from the DIsciplinary Elder’s mouth.

“He is.” Qin WUshuang nodded, looking at the youngster proudly, “There’s nothing weird about it…”

Before he finished, his words stuck at his throat, replaced by a gasp.

“Materialised Vitality Stage, then why is his Soul Energy with Lightning Attributes?” Looking at the crackling electricity shrouding Lin Qian, the Disciplinary Elder muttered.

In the Deathbattle arena, Lei Qian had realised the same thing, gritting his teeth tightly as he stared at his peculiar opponent. He could not put his mind around, Lin Qian was a mere Materialise Vitality Stage!

Where is this roaring lightning coming from? How did he awaken the same attributes as me?

“Lin Qian!” with a thunderous roar, Lei Qian gripped his Rushing Thunder Blade, dashing menacingly towards Lin Qian.

The purple lightning Soul Energy surged to its maximum at the moment Lei Qian axed towards Lin Qian. The Soul Energy warmed like a torrent, congregating onto the Rushing Thunder Blade, building up a threatening volume of power within.

At that moment, the Rushing Thunder Blade glowed blindingly in a sparkling purple glimmer, causing the entire arena to be dyed in the pure purple glow.

BOOM!

With a sharp whistle and a gentle wind, he disappeared, leaving the ground where they were standing in a destroyed state. The next moment, the swordsman’s blade traced a streak of purple light, suddenly appearing in front of Lin Qian’s face.

“Rushing Thunder Slice!”

A blade aura carved from the purest Purple Lightning pierced outwards in tandem with the Rushing Thunder Blade from Lei Qian’s hands.

The Rushing Thunder Slice hinged on its speciality, speed, appearing within a blink of an eye in front of Lin Qian. Not only so, but Lei Qian himself also flickered into an afterimage, materialising above Lin Qian, slashing downwards viciously onto Lin Qian head.

He had absolute confidence in this combo attack. The dominating damage the Rushing Thunder Slice caused was challenging to manage even by a 9th Tier Nirvana Stage Practitioner. Also, if Lin Qian could successfully withstand the colossal impact, he would probably be sent to wait at Death’s gate. Quickly following, all he needed to do was to finish with a final slice, leaving Lin Qian in two halves.

“Your Soul Energy is too weak. The paralysis effect from your Martial Soul can barely even make me ticklish.” Suddenly, a condescending voice sounded from Lin Qian. “Rushing Thunder Slice? The ultimate killing move from an 8 round, 9th Tier Nirvana Peak Practitioner, is only this much?”

Between his words, the Tempestuous Blade also sliced downwards. Immediately, a Crimson Gold Soul Energy outpoured from the sword with each movement, forming a gorgeous crescent moon.

The loud, conspicuous Rushing Thunder Slice shattered into pieces like glass under the smooth cut from Lin Qian, breaking into bits of purple glitter in mid-air.

In that clash, Lin Qian’s blade broke the Rushing Thunder Blade’s Aura. The remnants bulleted across Lei Qian’s side, missing him by a hair’s width, smashing straight into the barrier by the arena. Upon impact, a deep explosion boomed.

Before Lei Qian could react, two streaks of sword blurred across, and he found his throat perilously at the edge of the Tempestuous Night Blade.

At the same time, his Rushing Thunder Blade burst open, crashing onto the ground slowly. The parts had broken apart, four Vitality Equipment Pieces and two parts of the broken Vitality Equipment Core.

“Lei Qian, this isn’t even my best.”
