Chapter 2866 Such a Waste
Chapter 2866 Such a Waste
Xuan Wu Zong was a sword cultivator, and he had also practiced a secret technique called Sword Soul. At this moment, under the activation of the secret technique, his soul power turned into a sword, which instantly broke through Lu Ye's soul sea defense.
Seeing that Lu Ye seemed to be in an unstable state of mind, he shook the long sword in his hand, and the continuous sword energy flew like a lightning snake, surging towards Lu Ye and instantly submerging his figure.
Xuan Wuzong took advantage of the situation and showed no mercy. He flashed in front of Lu Ye with the sword in his hand and thrust the sword forward lightly.
This sword seems to have no power, but it actually contains all his strength.
At this moment, Jin Yao had already revealed herself in Lu Ye's soul sea. She held the soul-calming bell and shook it gently. Clearly discernible ripples spread out, and all the soul swords that attacked the soul sea were shattered into nothingness, without causing any waves at all.
The unstable look of Lu Ye that Xuan Wu Zong saw was completely an illusion.
"This soul sword technique is quite good." Jin Yao even had the leisure to comment on it.
She is Ba Qiu from another era, the strongest person in the inner world who is qualified to take that step. Part of Ba Qiu's strength comes from Shang's blessing, but her strength depends entirely on her own foundation, so her foundation may be even deeper than Ba Qiu's.
To receive such an evaluation from her, Xuan Wu Zong's secret technique is indeed extraordinary.
If Lu Ye hadn't obtained the Soul-Calming Bell before, he might really be in some trouble now.
When Xuan Wuzong thrust out the sword, he suddenly saw a flash of mirror light around Lu Ye. He was immediately shocked and thought that something was wrong.
Under normal circumstances, this would definitely be a perfect opportunity for him to launch a sneak attack. Lu Ye's soul was shaken and he had no chance to counterattack, but that mirror light was clearly the power of the Sky Mirror.
As expected, with the appearance of the mirror light, the continuous sword light that hit Lu Ye was all reflected back and attacked him together. Not only that, the power was not reduced much.
He discovered during the last battle with Lu Ye that the Sky Mirror seemed to be more powerful in Lu Ye's hand than in Xue Ju's hand. At the time he thought it was an illusion, but now it seems that it is not an illusion at all.
The power of this treasure is indeed much greater.
At this point, how could Xuan Wu Zong not know that Lu Ye was not affected by his soul sword technique at all? He secretly cursed the little thief for being cunning, but he could only exert his strength wildly to dissolve the continuous sword energy that came back from the counterattack.
Before they finished their work here, a long knife came slashing diagonally under the cover of the sword energy.
Xuan Wuzong was so busy that he could only raise his sword to block. When the violent force came at him, he couldn't help but tremble all over.
There was no time to breathe at all, Lu Ye's attack came like a storm, and in an instant the two figures were beaten into a paste.
Such close combat was an extremely dangerous scene, but both Lu Ye and Xuan Wu Zong were veterans in battle. They had fought countless battles, big and small, since their practice. Their swordsmanship had long been integrated into their instincts, and every move they made was a killing move. They could easily resolve each other's attacks and use their killing moves.
The situation was exactly the same as the last confrontation. Xuan Wu Zong did not feel any signs of Lu Ye mobilizing external forces, but the other party did have the background of the ten city lords.
Besides being shocked, I was more confused.
With such strength, how did he kill Zong Shenliang!
The information he received claimed that Zong Shenliang was seriously injured and fled into the Hehe Realm, but was chased by Lu Ye to the Initial Hall and beheaded with a single sword in public.
But that shouldn't be the case. He was very clear about Zong Shenliang's strength, which was on par with his own. At the moment, Lu Ye's strength was indeed good, but apart from his stronger physical strength, he had no other advantages.
Zong Shenliang should never die at the hands of this human race!
Unless... Zong Shenliang was poisoned by this kid, causing great damage to his strength.
He had personally experienced the horror of the poison and naturally knew what the consequences would be after being poisoned.
Seeing that Lu Ye was being unreasonable again like last time, and was ready to exchange injuries with him, how could Xuan Wu Zong allow him to do as he wished?
With a Jiuxiao Lei Ze sword in his hand, he protected himself impenetrably.
In this confrontation, Xuan Wu Zong was unharmed, but Lu Ye was repeatedly injured, bleeding profusely, and looked extremely embarrassed.
You can win! As long as you don't rush into anything, you can definitely win!
Xuan Wuzong's confidence increased immediately. To be honest, he was not forced to retreat by Lu Ye alone last time, but he had Fu Wei to help him. He was fighting one against two, and he retreated only after being poisoned.
As long as you don't get hurt this time, you will never be poisoned again.
Just as he was thinking this, his heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if he had sensed something, and his pupils contracted violently.
He quickly looked at the sword in his hand, and saw that the lightning on the sword seemed to dim. Shocked, he quickly sensed it and his face changed drastically in an instant!
His most precious sword...its power has been reduced!
If it were someone else, such minor damage might not be noticeable, but Xuan Wu Zong could.
Because a similar situation had occurred once before.
That was many years ago, when he first confronted Ba Qiu head-on.
He became famous earlier than Ba Qiu. When Ba Qiu rose to prominence, he was already one of the top ten city lords. So when he competed with Ba Qiu that time, his strength was slightly stronger than Ba Qiu's. At that time, Ba Qiu had not yet grown to his peak.
He originally had full confidence that he could defeat Ba Qiu, but after a head-on confrontation with him, the power of the Lei Ze sword in his hand was inexplicably weakened.
It was not until many years later that he found out that the treasure in Ba Qiu's hand was a weapon of the Bing clan. That thing could devour the mysteries of other treasures and strengthen itself.
So since then, he never dared to confront Ba Qiu head-on again, and the lost power of Lei Ze Sword could not be compensated.
But unexpectedly, the nightmare from many years ago happened again today!
He suddenly looked at the long sword in Lu Ye's hand and exclaimed: "Is this from the Bing Clan?"
The giant blade in Ba Qiu's hand is from the Bing family, and the long sword in Lu Ye's hand is also from the Bing family. Only in this way can it explain why the power of the Lei Ze Sword has been reduced.
Lu Ye sighed in his heart, he was finally discovered.
He had been careful enough, but although the mystery of the Lei Ze sword was swallowed silently by the fangs, Xuan Wu Zong was the owner of this treasure after all, and they had been together for many years. If there was anything unusual about the Lei Ze sword, he would eventually be able to detect it.
As the thought came to his mind, he slashed forward with a fierce blow.
Xuan Wuzong instinctively wanted to raise his sword to block, but quickly gave up. He didn't want the mystery of the Lei Ze Sword to be swallowed up again. Facing this attack, he frantically urged his Taoist power to protect his body.
The protective power of the blade only lasted for a moment before it was broken. Under Xuan Wuzong's incredulous gaze, blood spurted out and his whole body was chopped into pieces and flew out like a sandbag.
His eyes trembled.
How can it be!
How can this be?
He had just fought with Lu Ye, and he clearly felt that Lu Ye's strength was still the same as last time, slightly inferior to his. How come this sword was so powerful that it could directly injure him seriously?
If he hadn't noticed something was wrong and dodged slightly, the knife would have almost cut him in half.
The sharp power of the long sword was so strong that even his Taoist bones could not resist it.
Compared to last time, Lu Ye's strength has improved by more than a little bit? At least one or two thousand Dao forces have increased.
What made him even more uneasy was that after this knife attack, not only was he poisoned like last time, but there was also an inexplicable force at the wound, tearing his flesh and blood, and a familiar sealing force invaded his body.
That is the power of Tyrant Qiu!
But why could Lu Ye use the power of Ba Qiu?
The energy behind him was like a leech biting him to death. Xuan Wuzong no longer dared to hesitate. He swung the Lei Ze sword in his hand, turned into a flash of lightning, and fled into the distance.
At the same time, he did not forget to call out to Hongtu and Gu Mingyue: "Hurry up!"
"Want to leave!" Lu Ye stared at the flash of lightning, raised his hand and waved it, and a huge chessboard fell from the sky, covering the area in all directions.
The lightning that engulfed Xuan Wuzong's figure was instantly covered by it.
He moved quickly, crossing one chess square after another, and chased after them.
However, the lightning was not completely restrained by the chess squares. The power of thunder became more and more fierce, and suddenly turned into a lightning sword, which forcibly broke through the blockade of the chess game and broke through many chess squares.
Although the Starry Sky Chessboard is a treasure, Xuan Wu Zong's Lei Ze Sword is also a treasure, which has the ability to break the deadlock. However, looking at the bright blood-red color on the Lei Ze Sword, Xuan Wu Zong has obviously paid a lot of price in order to escape.
Lu Ye was ultimately unable to restrain Xuan Wuzong. After this guy broke through the blockade of the chess game, the lightning flashed away in an instant at an incredibly fast speed.
Even though Lu Ye used the teleportation technique to chase and kill him, he was unable to stop him. He sensed that the power of Fang and the power of Sorrow that had invaded Xuan Wu Zong's body were quickly fading away.
On the other side, almost at the same time when Xuan Wuzong shouted to escape, Hongtu and Gu Mingyue were both shocked.
The two of them were each dealing with the Dragon Lord and the Phoenix Lord, and were stretched to the limit. They had been hoping that the Xuan Wu Sect could get rid of Lu Ye and then come to their aid. Even if they couldn't, at least delaying the situation would be good.
They have already ordered troops to attack Holy Dragon City in three directions. When the troops are at the gates of the city, the Dragon Lord and the Phoenix Lord will definitely retreat.
At that time, they will be able to divide the power of Senluo City without any scruples.
Who would have thought that after such a short time, Xuan Wu Zong would be seriously injured and retreat!
Is this guy... so useless and incompetent? It was fine that he was beaten by Lu Ye last time, because Lu Ye at least had a helper that time. Why did he seem to be beaten even worse this time when he fought alone?
They were annoyed, but Xuan Wu Zong had already fled, and if the two of them stayed, it would definitely end in tragedy.
So without any hesitation, Hongtu and Gu Mingyue activated their secret techniques and fled in different directions.
Hongtu was born into a physical training family, so he had thick skin and tough flesh. No matter how hard Dragon Lord bombarded him, he would never turn back, even though he was in a mess. It was just some flesh wounds that would heal after some rest.
Poor Gu Mingyue was beaten by Lord Feng and vomited blood while fleeing. If it weren't for his invisible body of water spirit, it would have been difficult for him to escape.
Half an incense stick later, when Lu Ye rushed back to the vicinity of Senluo City, the Dragon Lord and the Phoenix Lord had both returned, and were staring at him in a daze.
Like Hongtu and Gu Mingyue, the two of them also couldn't understand why Xuan Wu Zong was beaten so badly.
Obviously, Lu Ye was at a slight disadvantage when he fought Xuan Wu Zong last time. (End of this chapter)
