Ling Chen's gaze shifted to a spot not far away, where Ling Yuxuan stood expressionless, seemingly indifferent to everything that was happening, as if it had nothing to do with him.

"Why is the Third Elder in such a hurry? I just have some doubts about whether Ling Yu's younger cousin really succeeded in cultivating the Gold Sword Pupil. Since the Third Elder is so anxious for me to step back, is there actually something suspicious going on here?"

Ling Han Ye persisted, emboldened by having supporters, and acted aggressively.

The Third Elder was about to rebuke him but was stopped by Ling Chen, who calmly looked at Ling Han Ye with an unwavering gaze and said, "Then what does cousin want to do?"

"I have no other intentions; I just want to witness the power of the Gold Sword Pupil."

Ling Han Ye smirked, then glanced at the others and loudly said, "I believe this is also everyone's wish."

Hearing these words, many people were moved. Indeed, they all wanted to see how powerful the Gold Sword Pupil was. After all, most of them had never seen it before and were curious.

"Then let it be as you wish."

Ling Chen clasped his hands behind his back, then extended one hand, beckoning through the air, "Make your move!"

Seeing Ling Chen's gesture, Ling Han Ye couldn't help but look sullen. Ling Chen intended to deal with him in such a manner, which was extremely arrogant, clearly not taking him seriously.

Only Ling Yuxuan in the entire Ling Family had the qualification to treat him with such disdain!

Even though anger surged in his heart, Ling Han Ye remained calm on the surface, flipping his palm to reveal a cyan ancient zither before him. The zither's shape resembled a giant ancient sword, and the strings were simply installed on this sword.

However, the young faces of many in the Ling Family showed no surprise. Ling Han Ye's weapon was indeed this ancient zither. The swordsmanship he cultivated was called Phantom Sound Sword Qi, a supreme technique that integrates musical illusion techniques into swordsmanship. Similar to the Purple Extreme Sword Eye, it was one of the Ling Family's top-tier skills.

But compared to the Gold Sword Pupil, there was still a certain gap.

A sparkle of brilliance flashed in Ling Han Ye's eyes. He placed his hand on the ancient zither, and with a flick of his fingers, a stream of melody shot out suddenly, resembling sword qi, shooting towards Ling Chen with a twisted trajectory in the void.

As the sword qi shot out, a very enchanting note reverberated, mesmerizing those who heard it.

Facing the astonishing piercing trajectory in the void, Ling Chen remained motionless. In his eyes, a glint of golden light suddenly flashed, and in the next instant, two extremely stunning beams shot out from his eyes, heading towards the melody sword qi.

Bang!

The beams and the sword qi collided fiercely, exploding in mid-air. But in just an instant, the melody sword qi completely collapsed, shattering into pieces, while the golden beams continued to dart towards Ling Han Ye's brow with lightning speed.

"Hmph!"

Ling Han Ye sneered, once again strumming the zither with both hands, causing dense amounts of sword qi to shoot out, which then gathered into a long sword in mid-air, fiercely clashing with the golden beam.

Amazing explosive sounds echoed as Ling Han Ye's ten fingers continuously played, enhancing the melody sword qi, while the golden beams shot by Ling Chen were forcefully suppressed.

"The Gold Sword Pupil has been blocked!"

A young member of the Ling Family exclaimed.

"Blocked by Ling Han Ye using Phantom Sound Sword Qi, is that all the power the Gold Sword Pupil has?"

Ling Feng's eyes also revealed a hint of mockery.

"If the Gold Sword Pupil has only this power, then it's not worth worrying about."

Ling Yuxuan calmly remarked.

The Gold Sword Pupil displayed by Ling Chen didn't seem threatening at all to him.

However, just as they finished speaking, the golden beams shot from Ling Chen's eyes suddenly retracted, transforming into two light dots, disappearing within his eyes.

"Just that."

Ling Han Ye's mouth curled into a mocking curve. What Gold Sword Pupil? The so-called super technique of the Ling Family was simply an empty reputation, not worth mentioning.

"Is it?"

A glint of light flashed in Ling Chen's eyes. In the next moment, two even more brilliant golden beams suddenly burst out, instantly filling the entire space with gold.

Within this golden space, countless golden treasure swords floated in mid-air, emitting extremely powerful sharpness, arranged in a precise and exquisite pattern, as if forming a Golden Kingdom.

Under the coverage of this Golden Kingdom, everyone couldn't help but marvel. Each of these golden treasure swords seemed to exist truly, and every sword was close to the Holy Grade level.

"Golden Sword Domain!"

Ling Tingfeng's eyes flickered with admiration. Unlike the others, he wasn't clueless about the Gold Sword Pupil. He had witnessed its power, like this Golden Sword Domain, which can be used only when the Gold Sword Pupil is cultivated to the second level, with immense power.

He once saw a senior of the Ling Family use the Golden Sword Domain to enshroud a kilometer area around them, making everyone feel a presence of a sharp Sword Intent, as if being in a world of swords. Even without making a move, it already intimidated the enemies.

Ling Tingfeng never expected that Ling Chen had already cultivated to the level of the Golden Sword Domain.

"Creating mysteries!"

Ling Han Ye snorted coldly, quickening his hand movements on the zither. The mesmerizing music flew up overwhelmingly like a tide, covering the surrounding space as well, trying to overshadow Ling Chen's Golden Sword Domain.

The music space spread rapidly, with strands of Phantom Sound Sword Qi flying out, suppressing the key areas of the space, slowly weaving a web similar to a spider web, soon completely obscuring Ling Chen's Golden Sword Domain.

Seeing this, Ling Han Ye's face showed a cold smile. As long as he isolated Ling Chen's Golden Sword Domain, dealing with Ling Chen later would be like shooting fish in a barrel, needing no extra effort.

Ling Chen stood motionless, seemingly indifferent to the Golden Sword Domain being obscured until the music space was about to completely tighten. Then Ling Chen slowly raised his head, his mouth slightly opened.

"Break!"

With a simple utterance of this word, the surrounding space suddenly shook violently. Ling Han Ye's pupils shrunk as he suddenly saw his music space twisting, and the twisted area grew larger and larger, with the curvature of the twist increasing.

Bang!

With a loud bang, Ling Han Ye's painstakingly crafted music space was instantly pierced through by numerous golden treasure swords, perforated into a piece of window paper riddled with holes.
