CHAPTER 1185  SPARRING WITH THE DRAGON EMPRESS(2)

"Whenever you are ready, Yuan. As your Senior, I will let you make the first move." Xi Mingze said to him as she stood tall, her aura oozing with confidence.

Yuan nodded and said, "Then I will begin now."

Since his opponent was two entire realms above his cultivation, Yuan did not have the leisure to go easy like he did with Xi Murong and many others, so he went all out from the beginning.

A tyrannical aura filled the area as Yuan's spiritual energy gushed outward, causing the atmosphere to immediately change.

Xi Mingze's eyes widened with shock when she felt how much spiritual energy Yuan's body contained.

'How can a mere Spirit King release this much spiritual energy?! That is impossible!' She cried inwardly, as she was truly shocked by what she was witnessing.

Xi Shengmo and the others were utterly speechless.

"He has enough spiritual energy to match a Spirit Sovereign when he's only a Spirit King! How does that make any sense?!" Xi Shengmo exclaimed.

"He had this much power this whole time?" Xi Murong was baffled. He didn't think Yuan could be hiding so much power.

'Yuan…' Xi Meili's eyes were glued to Yuan's handsome figure, her gaze filled with admiration.

In fact, Yuan's aura was so powerful that it could be felt from hundreds of miles away by the residents of Ancient Dragon City.

"Is that Her Majesty, Empress Xi? Did her match with that human start already?"

"As expected of Her Majesty, her aura is so powerful that we can feel it from here."

"No… I don't think that's Empress Xi's aura…"

The Xi Family had notified its residents of Xi Mingze and Yuan's match ahead of time so they wouldn't panic if their fight caused any disturbance.

Many people mistook Yuan's aura for Xi Mingze's aura, as nobody could imagine a Spirit King having this much power.

Meanwhile, Xi Mingze clenched her fists with an excited smile on her face.

"How long has it been since my blood boiled like this? I'm really looking forward to this fight, Yuan."

Shortly after releasing his aura, Yuan used his movements technique to close their distance almost instantly.

"Ha!"

Yuan swung the Empyrean Overlord at Xi Mingze's head, its blade gushing with Sword Aura.

Clang!

Xi Mingze managed to block the strike with her spear that was covered in Spear Aura, but she was still getting pushed back by the tremendous force of the slash.

'What a heavy strike! He's a human, but he has the strength of a dragon!' Xi Mingze didn't expect to be pushed back by Yuan so easily.

After taking a quick breath, Xi Mingze tightened her grasp on the spear before swinging back, sending Yuan flying backwards.

However, Yuan still managed to maintain his balance as he flew back. But before he could stabilize himself, Xi Mingze flew at him with her spear already in a swinging motion.

Clang!

Sparks of their weapon aura scattered when their weapons collided with each other for a second time.

This time, Xi Mingze did not get pushed back by Yuan, and they were both basically on equal footing at this moment.

The two of them would exchange hundreds of blows with each other over the next several minutes, and neither of them tried to overpower the other, almost as though they wanted to enjoy the moment.

Since it's basically impossible for Yuan to find a worthy opponent at his level that could give him a satisfying experience, he must resort to fighting those who are far superior, but he has more chance of finding treasures than to find someone like that in the Third Heaven.

As for Xi Mingze, she rarely has the chance to use her strength nowadays, so she also did not want the fight to end too soon.

In the end, Yuan and Xi Mingze spent almost half a day just exchanging blows with each other without using any techniques besides their weapon aura.

"I'm going to step it up a notch now, Yuan!" Xi Mingze warned him before she started using techniques.

"Let me see how you will defend this! Golden Falling Stars!"

Xi Mingze flew high into the sky as she held the Dragon's Soul above her head.

The Dragon's Soul emanated a golden shine that illuminated the sky. Then, thousands of Dragon's Souls materialized in the sky, threatening to rain down upon Yuan.

This technique reminded Yuan of his Ten Thousand Ghost Blades technique, so he immediately retrieved his second Soul Weapon, Starry Abyss, and used Ten Thousand Ghost Blades to clone it ten thousand times.

Xi Mingze sucked in a breath of cold air when ten thousand Starry Abyss pointed at her in the sky, threatening to shoot her down.

'He has a second Soul Weapon?!' She cried inwardly.

However, she didn't have the time to be distracted by this fact.

The next moment, Xi Mingze released her Dragon's Souls, and thousands upon thousands of golden spears fell from the sky like shooting stars.

Yuan also commanded his ten thousand Starry Abyss to attack.

The Dragon's Souls and Starry Abyss clashed with each other as though they were at war.

Very quickly, it was clear that the Starry Abyss was weaker than the Dragon's Soul, as it required three to four Starry Abyss to destroy a single Dragon's Soul.

Because of this, one would expect Yuan to be overwhelmed soon by Xi Mingze's technique.

However, even though Yuan's Starry Abyss was weaker than the Dragon's Soul, his massive pool of Soul Strength made up for it in quantity. Whenever a Starry Abyss is destroyed, Yuan would simply make more.

Xi Mingze wasn't able to do this, as she couldn't recreate the destroyed Dragon's Soul one by one and needed to recast the entire technique if she wanted to create more, which would consume too much spiritual energy.

Eventually, Yuan destroyed all of the Dragon's Souls.

"Now it's my turn." Yuan said as he looked at Xi Mingze with a profound smile on his face.

Xi Mingze smiled back as she wondered what kind of surprise he'll give her this time. Belonging to .
