Chapter 429 I Don’t Need a Companion
"Well done!"
Li Yan's eyes were filled with cold murderous intent. Facing Yun Chen's sudden and fierce attack, he did not retreat but instead stood up to meet it.
The blood-drinking sword in his hand hummed excitedly, and the sword's momentum suddenly changed. It no longer pursued extreme speed and weirdness, but simplified the complex. Every sword seemed to have been tempered a thousand times, accurate, ruthless, and direct!
"Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!"
The sound of fists and swords clashing was like dense raindrops, and every collision erupted with astonishing air waves and dazzling light.
On the stage, two figures moved at high speed, entangled, separated, and then collided!
The golden fist force and the cold sword light intertwined wildly, turning the entire arena into a dangerous energy storm area.
Yun Chen pushed the Phantom Step to its limit, his figure erratic, sometimes like a flying dragon, sometimes like a stealthy ghost, always able to avoid Li Yan's fatal sword at the critical moment, while his fists carried a huge force like collapsing mountains and splitting rocks, constantly bombarding the sword spine or Li Yan's defensive aura.
Li Yan's sword was like a living sea dragon. The sword moved with him and his body moved with the sword, protecting himself perfectly.
There was not a single bit of frills in his swordsmanship. Each sword strike was aimed directly at the weak points in Yun Chen's attack, whether it was a joint or a node where the Qi meridians flowed. It was extremely ruthless and tricky.
The condensed killing sword intent was even more pervasive, constantly attacking Yun Chen's mind, trying to undermine his will to fight.
Both of them fought fast and attacked each other, and the battle instantly became fierce!
The people watching the game below were already dazzled and shocked.
They never imagined that the battle in the Jindan stage could be so intense!
Yun Chen's strange body movements and domineering punching power, and Li Yan's precise and ruthless killing swordsmanship, far exceeded their understanding of cultivators of the same level.
"This Yun Chen... can actually fight with Senior Brother Li Yan to this extent?" A disciple of Yuxu Palace exclaimed in disbelief.
"His body movements are so strange, and his true energy is of frighteningly high quality, and his body is even more abnormal... How did this guy cultivate?" An elite disciple of Taixu Palace said with a solemn expression.
Liu Yanran and Zhao Xiruo held hands tightly and never let go, their hearts in their throats.
Shen Nan was also concentrating, analyzing every change on the court.
On the high platform, the eyes of several big men never left the No. 7 ring.
"This boy has a strong body and ancient and domineering Qi. What's more rare is that he has an excellent combat awareness. He can always seize fleeting opportunities. It really gives the Shenlei Palace a great advantage." Master Yushu beat his chest in frustration, with indignation in his eyes.
If he had known that Yun Chen was so outstanding, he should have taken action personally, even if it meant lowering his own status, to tie Yun Chen to the Yuxu Palace.
It’s all the fault of that loser Lu Beiyou. He was asked to win over Yun Chen, but he couldn’t even do such a small thing.
Upon hearing this, Elder Lei Tong's tense expression finally relaxed completely, and even a hint of imperceptible pride flashed across the depths of his eyes.
"What do you mean by picking up a great bargain? If your disciple hadn't hunted down Yun Chen, how would my Divine Thunder Palace have stood a chance?"
"You..." Master Yu Shu looked at Lei Tong with a cold gaze and clenched his fists, but he couldn't refute.
It was indeed his disciple who was stupid in this matter, and he couldn't blame anyone else.
Because of his children's personal affairs, he missed such a good opportunity.
"Okay, stop arguing and watch the show!"
Upon seeing this, Fairy Bi Bo spoke softly. After she finished speaking, her eyes moved and lingered for a moment on Yun Chen's light golden dragon-shaped true qi, as if she was thinking about something.
Upon hearing this, Master Yu Shu snorted coldly and said nothing more.
Elder Lei naturally didn't bother to pay attention to him.
Lin Xuantong, who was standing aside, was also filled with resentment, and his teeth were almost bitten off.
The Shenlei Palace is so shameless. If they hadn't captured Yun Chen, Yun Chen would have long ago joined their Taixu Palace.
How could he possibly fight on behalf of the Divine Thunder Palace?
"Hanyue, what do you think of Yunchen?"
Suddenly, Elder Ling Shuang broke the silence and turned to look at Leng Hanyue.
Leng Hanyue couldn't help but be stunned. After thinking for a while, he said, "His cultivation is unfathomable. He is even stronger than the last time I saw him. Now, if I face him... it's a 50-50 chance."
She thought Ling Shuang was asking her how Yun Chen's strength compared to her own, so her answer was quite pertinent.
Ling Shuang shook her head. "That's not what I'm asking. I'm asking you, what's his character like? If he were to be your Taoist partner... would you be willing?"
"Ah? This..." Leng Hanyue didn't expect Elder Ling Shuang to suddenly say such a thing. She was stunned for a moment, and then a blush suddenly appeared on her face.
"I don't need a Taoist companion."
"No need? I understand." Ling Shuang nodded thoughtfully and said nothing more.
But Leng Hanyue couldn't calm down for a long time because of these words.
"boom!"
Another hard fight without any tricks!
The fist and sword collided fiercely again, and the violent energy impact caused both of them to slide back several steps at the same time, and deep marks were plowed on the hard ground of the ring under their feet.
Yun Chen breathed slightly, his chest heaving, and the tingling sensation in his arms reminded him of his opponent's strength.
Li Yan's murderous sword intent was like a cancer attached to his bones, constantly corroding his meridians and mind.
If the Nine Dragons' True Qi had not been purified by the Hunyuan Pearl, the quality would be incomparable to what it was before, and the True Dragon's Essence Blood that he was about to obtain had already been completely refined, he would probably have been defeated long ago.
The opponent's combat experience is so rich that it is almost impossible to find obvious flaws.
Li Yan stood with the sword in his hand, his breathing still steady, but the hand holding the hilt tightened slightly.
He seemed to have the upper hand and was suppressing Yun Chen, but only he knew that the opponent was much more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.
His strange body movements made most of his exquisite killing moves fail, and his domineering true energy and strong body repeatedly hit his sword without being destroyed.
Being unable to capture the enemy for a long time is not a good thing for him who is good at killing with one blow.
Moreover, he vaguely felt that the other party seemed... not to have exerted his full strength yet?
"You are very strong." Li Yan looked at Yun Chen and finally spoke again. His voice was still cold, but with less indifference: "You are worthy of my true strength."
He slowly raised his left hand, and with his sword-like fingers, he gently brushed across the cold sword.
As his fingertips passed across, the dark red evil lines on the sword's spine seemed to come alive, wriggling and spreading like blood vessels, and a more intense and more heart-pounding terrifying evil spirit spread out like a substance.
In an instant, the temperature of the entire arena area dropped sharply, and even faint ice crystals condensed in the air!
"This sword is called 'Blood Slaughter', and it drinks nine hundred and ninety-nine bloods."
Li Yan's voice seemed to come from the underworld: "Today, use your blood to sacrifice to my Thousand Killing Realm!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the aura around him surged, and the originally restrained killing sword intent completely erupted, turning into a dark red sword pillar visible to the naked eye that soared into the sky!
