"True Martial Fourth Realm Peak? A four-star low-grade Spiritual Artifact? And, Double Sword Force." Zhao Letian furrowed his brow, expressing a serious look.
Lin Yun also wields the Double Sword Force and uses a four-star low-grade Spiritual Artifact, but his cultivation is only at the early stage of True Martial Fourth Realm, far from comparable to Shentu Yu. Fighting Zhao Letian already requires his full effort, not to mention how much more challenging a battle with Shentu Yu would be.
"Now you are afraid? It's too late, you mere Zhao Family bastard, neither your status nor your cultivation and strength can compare to mine. You dared to oppose me, you should have anticipated today's outcome." Shentu Yu thought Zhao Letian was afraid and sneered with pride.
"Hmph! Dragon Roar Nine Swords, slash!"
Zhao Letian couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with Shentu Yu anymore, snorted coldly, and swinging his cyan longsword, he struck directly at him.
"Seeking death! Blood Slaughter Sword Technique, kill!"
Shentu Yu shouted sternly. From his silver longsword emerged a burst of blood-red light filled with a murderous aura, violently slashing towards Zhao Letian.
Four Dragon Roars, like rolling thunder, assaulted Shentu Yu's Divine Soul, suppressing his strength. However, Shentu Yu's cultivation was much stronger than Lin Yun's, and his Divine Soul was far more resilient. The impact he suffered was minimal, and his blood-colored longsword hardly paused, cutting through the invisible Sword Qi, unstoppable in its advance.
"Boom!" My Virtual Library Empire (*) appreciates your readership at the source.
The swords of the two clashed, and their ferocious True Yuan Power spread wildly, like a storm centered around the Life and Death Platform, sweeping violently around it, causing the audience below, all of whom were in the Primordial Martial Realm, to hurriedly dodge away. The repercussions of the attack from these Middle Stage True Martial warriors were not something these ordinary Realm individuals could withstand, and if they weren't careful, they might even be killed on the spot by their shockwaves.
Zhao Letian staggered back ten steps, grunted, and steadied himself, his face slightly pale, not looking too well.
The True Yuan Power from the True Martial Fourth Realm Peak was indeed tremendously powerful, in both robustness and purity far beyond what currently compared, he was at a slight disadvantage in this exchange.
"Zhao Letian, see the gap between us? Today, you shall definitely be defeated," Shentu Yu stepped back six steps, sneered proudly - this strike had confirmed his thoughts. Although he had only mastered the Double Sword Force, not as high as Zhao Letian's Triple Sword Force, his mighty True Martial Fourth Realm Peak cultivation allowed him to firmly suppress Zhao Letian.
"You are celebrating too soon. One step Carefree, roaming the world, slash!"
Zhao Letian was not disheartened by the disadvantage of one move; his determination to kill Shentu Yu today remained unwavering. With a thought, he utilized the Carefree Body Technique, turned into a nimble and elusive white afterimage, and swung his sword at Shentu Yu again.
"Hmph! Did you think you are the only one who masters Body Technique? Ghostly Soul Body Technique, kill!" Shentu Yu coldly smiled, also displaying his Body Technique, turning into a ghostly-like purple afterimage, facing Zhao Letian.
In just an instant, the figures of the two interlaced repeatedly, with flashing sword lights and ceaseless clashes.
Suddenly, a crisp sound rang out, and then the two were far apart, temporarily stopping the fight.
"Zhao Letian, your sword is broken, how can you fight me again?" Shentu Yu, holding a blood-tinged silver longsword, looked at Zhao Letian across from him and said with a mocking cold laugh. He bore no marks of injury, but his magnificent purple robe had been shredded into ribbons by the Sword Qi, looking quite ragged.
In contrast, Zhao Letian was pale and looked unwell. He had intended to rely on the Body Technique, "Carefree Travel", to outsmart strength with clever moves and avoid a head-on confrontation with Shentu Yu. However, after Shentu Yu demonstrated his Body Technique, his speed was no slower than Letian's, leaving no room for opportunistic tricks.
Of course, this is not to say that Shentu Yu's Body Technique could compare with "Carefree Travel". In fact, "Carefree Travel" was far superior to Shentu Yu's Body Technique. It's just that Zhao Letian had not practiced his Body Technique for long and had only learned a little, whereas Shentu Yu had almost perfected his Body Technique to the extreme.
Outwardly, although Zhao Letian also bore no injuries, the power of Shentu Yu's Swordsmanship was stronger. Each time he resisted a sword strike, the organs in his body were shaken by a tremendous force. After several exchanges, he had already sustained some internal injuries. Although not severe, they were significantly disadvantageous for the ongoing battle, especially since his strength was already slightly inferior to Shentu Yu's. Any disadvantage could be fatally detrimental to the fight.
Worse, the cyan longsword in his hand was merely a three-star low-grade Spiritual Weapon, while Shentu Yu wielded a four-star low-grade Spiritual Weapon with greater power. After repeated direct collisions, the cyan longsword finally failed to withstand the burden and was chopped in two by Shentu Yu's silver longsword, breaking on the spot.
"Do you think you can win just by relying on a Spiritual Artifact? Naive. I'm not the only one with a four-star low-grade Spiritual Artifact." Zhao Letian was not flustered by the breaking of his Spiritual Weapon. With a calm shout, he suddenly had a new four-star low-grade Spiritual Weapon longsword in his hand, radiating a formidable aura.
This sword was found in Lin Yun's Storage Ring by Zhao Letian, and during a previous meditation break, he had swiftly refined it. Although only superficially refined, it was sufficient to contend with Shentu Yu.
"That fool Lin Yun, even in death he causes trouble." Shentu Yu frowned and felt disheartened. Judging from the aura, the quality of the longsword in Zhao Letian's hand seemed even higher than his own silver one. Therefore, even without extensive refining, it was enough to compete with him.
After drawing the new Spiritual Artifact, Zhao Letian, with his robust Physical Strength, undeterred by the minor internal injuries, swung his sword again to attack.
"Hmph! I'm not afraid of you!"
Shentu Yu snorted coldly, also fearless, his figure flickered as he approached with his silver longsword.
Even with a new four-star low-grade Spiritual Artifact, Zhao Letian's attack power was still not as good as his. Moreover, his True Yuan Power was much more profound than Zhao Letian's, allowing him to sustain the battle for a longer duration. Therefore, in this fight, he was bound to win. Slaying Zhao Letian was only a matter of time.
Next, the afterimages of the two men traversed back and forth on the Life and Death Platform, swords constantly flashing, sounds of tearing fabric following, with bursts of ferocious True Yuan Power sweeping like roaring raging waves from time to time. Soon, fresh blood was spilled onto the Life and Death Platform.
