Facing Gu Tianyi's instantaneous speed, Qin Han Chu's teleportation technique was thoroughly countered.
He could now only rely on other means of the Five Elements Divine Banner to fight back.
Although Gu Tianyi's Wind and Thunder Wings were fast, their attack was not their strong suit.
However, Gu Tianyi possessed another top-tier offensive divine artifact. If he couldn't break through Qin Han Chu's defenses promptly, Gu Tianyi might resort to using double divine power to contend with Qin Han Chu.
Instantaneous speed combined with terrifying offensive power would put Qin Han Chu in a perilous situation.
Unable to break through Qin Han Chu's defenses for a prolonged period, Gu Tianyi indeed grew anxious.
While moving at high speed, he suddenly produced a top-tier divine sword.
Gu Tianyi's movement speed was so fast that Qin Han Chu couldn't lock onto his true position.
Qin Han Chu hadn't even realized that Gu Tianyi had already produced the top-tier divine sword.
Boom!
In the very next instant, Gu Tianyi activated the top-tier divine sword and launched his attack.
Amidst the thunderous explosions, Qin Han Chu's protective shield violently vibrated.
With the augmentation of the top-tier divine sword, Gu Tianyi's attack power became exceptionally formidable.
This single strike alone had already consumed a vast amount of Qin Han Chu's divine power.
Of course, Gu Tianyi was not faring much better.
Simultaneously controlling two top-tier divine artifacts placed an immense strain on his divine power.
Unable to use teleportation, Qin Han Chu was perpetually in a defensive posture, constantly "taking hits."
Despite this, Qin Han Chu was not flustered.
While he couldn't utilize his origin treasure himself, he could have it supply him with divine power.
As long as Qin Han Chu remained undefeated, he could deplete Gu Tianyi's divine power.
"The defense of the Five Elements Divine Banner is too strong; Gu Tianyi's fierce attacks still haven't managed to shatter it."
"The strength of these two is evenly matched; it won't be easy to determine a victor."
"Gu Tianyi is simultaneously controlling two top-tier divine artifacts; his divine power consumption will be faster than Baili Han Su's."
"If this fighting style continues, Gu Tianyi will have to use a secret technique within four hours at the latest!"
"Gu Tianyi has no other choice. If he stops using the divine sword, his attack power will be greatly diminished, but if he removes the Wind and Thunder Wings, he won't be able to restrain Baili Han Su's spatial teleportation."
Amidst the onlookers' discussions, the battle between Qin Han Chu and Gu Tianyi grew increasingly intense.
Unbeknownst to them, more than four hours had passed.
During these four hours, Gu Tianyi had not ceased his onslaught.
After such a prolonged fierce battle, Gu Tianyi's divine power indeed began to falter.
He directly activated a secret technique, causing his combat power to surge dramatically.
At this precise moment, Qin Han Chu once again unleashed the purple mist.
Employing the same strategy as in his fight against the Heavenly Curtain Divine Venerable, he sought to stall for time.
Every second he could delay meant another second closer to victory.
"Disperse!"
Gu Tianyi's Wind and Thunder Wings flapped violently, and then Qin Han Chu's purple mist was directly blown away.
Qin Han Chu was not discouraged; exchanging this move for Gu Tianyi's fierce attack was a worthwhile trade.
"Still not using your secret technique?"
"Then don't bother!"
"Break!"
Gu Tianyi roared in anger, unleashing his ultimate strike towards Qin Han Chu.
Qin Han Chu knew that the protective shield of the Five Elements Divine Banner would struggle to withstand such a terrifying attack. He directly employed an Ancestral-level combat technique.
An Ancestral-level combat technique could absolutely block Gu Tianyi's strike!
"He's using an Ancestral-level combat technique at this moment? Shouldn't he use a secret technique first for even greater power?"
"Could his divine power still be capable of another expenditure?"
"That's unlikely; by rights, his divine power should be nearly exhausted."
Witnessing the Five-Colored Divine Mountain standing before Qin Han Chu, Gu Tianyi exclaimed in surprise, "You're not using your secret technique?"
"What business is it of yours how I fight?"
Following Qin Han Chu's words, their attacks collided once more.
Just as Qin Han Chu had anticipated, the Ancestral-level combat technique indeed withstood Gu Tianyi's peak strike.
However, as their attacks erupted, Gu Tianyi had already vanished from his position.
Before Qin Han Chu could react, he appeared behind him.
Rumble...
Gu Tianyi attacked again, and Qin Han Chu was directly sent flying backward.
At this moment, Gu Tianyi's attacks were incredibly potent; Qin Han Chu's protective shield was violently trembling.
Boom, boom...
Gu Tianyi's attack speed was far too rapid; cracks began to appear in Qin Han Chu's protective shield.
Qin Han Chu knew he couldn't continue like this. Gritting his teeth, he activated Pangu Ancestor's secret technique!
This secret technique was an Ancestral-level secret technique, far superior to others in terms of combat power enhancement and duration.
Most importantly, the backlash from this secret technique was weaker than that of ordinary secret techniques.
As Qin Han Chu's combat power escalated, the protective shield of the Five Elements Divine Banner became even more formidable.
The cracks that had appeared were also repaired by Qin Han Chu.
Qin Han Chu's combat power continued to rise, his aura far surpassing Gu Tianyi's!
"Baili Han Su's secret technique seems different."
"The combat power boost from this secret technique appears even greater!"
"This fellow Baili Han Su was hiding some means!"
"What kind of fortuitous encounter does this fellow possess to be so powerful!"
Gu Tianyi, within the arena, also sensed that something was amiss, his gaze growing more solemn.
"Come on, it's winner takes all!"
Qin Han Chu raised his hand, and the Five Elements Divine Mountain suddenly materialized at the highest point.
With the appearance of the Five Elements Divine Mountain, an incredibly powerful suppression force enveloped the entire arena.
Gu Tianyi, who was moving rapidly, was even suppressed and unable to fly quickly under this terrifying pressure.
Boom, boom...
Streams of terrifying suppression power descended upon Gu Tianyi. Roaring and struggling, he retracted his Wind and Thunder Wings and began to activate his strongest strike!
Hum, hum!
The divine sword in Gu Tianyi's hand suddenly emitted a brilliant cold light. At this moment, everyone was shocked.
"An Ancestral-level combat technique!"
"Gu Tianyi was also hiding his strength!"
"This fellow!"
"These two are too powerful; their trump cards are endless."
"With the Fengyun Divine Sect backing Gu Tianyi, it's understandable that he possesses such fortuitous encounters. But how did this Baili Han Su get so lucky? Such an astonishing display from a lone cultivator."
"He won't be a lone cultivator in the future; he has the potential to become one of the strongest lineage successors of the Ancient Dao Academy."
In the Fengyun Divine Sect's ranks, the Fengyun Divine Sect's Divine Emperor clenched his fist tightly, filled with anxiety.
They had poured the entire sect's strength into ensuring Gu Tianyi became the champion of this session.
However, they had not expected such a formidable opponent as Qin Han Chu to emerge.
He knew very well that Gu Tianyi had exhausted all his trump cards.
This strike was likely the strongest blow Gu Tianyi could unleash.
And Qin Han Chu's attack was equally terrifying; the outcome of this clash would probably still be a draw.
If Qin Han Chu's divine power was depleted, then Gu Tianyi would inevitably taste defeat!
