Chapter 1997
No matter how he changed his spear techniques—whether they were as fast as thunder, as wide and sweeping, or as cunning and unpredictable—he could never break through Chen Xuan's sword techniques, which were as gentle as water.
He moves fast, so Chen Xuan's sword moves slow down, using stillness to control movement; he moves slow, so Chen Xuan's sword moves slow down even more, pressing forward step by step.
Even when facing an attack from four people at the same time, Chen Xuan still managed to firmly restrain Han Jiuling's offensive with his two long swords.
This nearly drove Han Jiuling to madness several times. If he hadn't been worried that activating the forbidden technique would leave hidden dangers on the foundation of his cultivation path, he would have been forced to recklessly activate the forbidden technique to enhance his combat power.
However, faced with the competition with Xia Jiuyou, he could not afford to lose his advantage and could only endure it.
If Chen Xuan still had some room for defense when dealing with Han Jiuling, then Xuan Yi was already sweating profusely from being beaten.
Chen Xuan's left-hand sword strikes were fierce and powerful, each strike aimed at him and the ancient bronze giant he rode—what an overbearing and ruthless way of swordsmanship!
The penetrating power of the sword energy passed through the bronze giant's body and was transmitted into Xuan Yi's body time and time again, causing his blood and qi to churn violently and his internal organs to feel as if they were about to shift.
Xuan Yi didn't know how much longer Chen Xuan could hold on. He only knew that if the recoil at this frequency continued to impact his body, he would be the first to succumb and die.
"Damn it! Everyone, we represent the Five Holy Lands!" Xuan Yi could no longer rely on his physical strength to withstand the impact of Chen Xuan's divine sword piercing through his body. Blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and he roared with a ferocious look in his eyes.
"Just now, the five Holy Lords disregarded their reputation and publicly instructed us on the game. If we still lose under such circumstances, how will we have the face to travel across the starry sky in the future? Where will the prestige of the five Holy Lands be placed!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the four of them engaged in another fierce battle with Chen Xuan. After a moment, they all retreated and created distance between themselves.
In the void, Chen Xuan's white-haired, demonic body remained fierce and imposing, its aura not only not diminishing but growing even stronger.
Behind him, in the void, the thousand-foot-tall Fusang Divine Tree stood firmly rooted, and the divine radiance emanating from the nine suns on the tree became increasingly dazzling, its scorching aura almost burning and distorting the void.
Above his head, a bright moon hung in the endless sea of stars, its light cascading down like a waterfall, repeatedly impacting Tianyi's Yin-Yang Fish Formation and Mo Xingyan's "Stars Illuminate the Nine Heavens" phenomenon.
The Chaos Lotus blooming quietly beneath his feet still exudes boundless vitality, with azure mist constantly rising and enveloping most of Chen Xuan's body, repairing the minor damage he sustained in battle.
Upon seeing this scene, a hint of apprehension and fear involuntarily appeared in the eyes of the four people opposite them.
"You... how could you possibly possess such combat power?" Xia Jiuyou's voice trembled slightly. The path of Qi Refining was not suited for prolonged battles and wars of attrition. This high-intensity, high-frequency attack, after an hour, had already pushed her to the limit of frantically squeezing the potential of her Purple Mansion.
"Chen Xuan, just how many trump cards are you hiding? What kind of divine body do you cultivate? And what kind of ancient immortal technique have you practiced!"
The brief respite allowed Han Jiuling and the others to finally catch their breath. Even for them, such intense fighting was something they rarely experienced more than once or twice in their lives.
Compared to the brief pause in the arena, in the void outside, on the decks of the eight warships, everyone from the elders at the True Immortal level to the core disciples at the Nascent Soul level was dumbfounded, their faces filled with shock.
Even many True Immortal Elders felt a sense of threat after witnessing the combined power of the Eight Holy Sons.
Despite their formidable fighting prowess, the combined attack of eight against Chen Xuan yielded an astonishing result.
Chen Xuan's divine and demonic body was only hit several times at the beginning of the fierce battle because he was unfamiliar with the four people's attack methods.
However, after the time it takes to drink two cups of tea, the number of times that Xuan Yi, Han Jiuling, and even Tianxuan Saint Son, who was most skilled in speed, could injure his divine and demonic body had been greatly reduced.
Now, after another fierce battle that lasted only a short while, Chen Xuan not only escaped being hit, but also forced Xuan Yi to the point where the blood at the corner of his mouth could no longer be suppressed and slowly flowed down.
The fact that Chen Xuanyi was unable to perfectly deflect the sword's power using his own strength is enough to show that the power unleashed by Chen Xuanyi's sword strikes had exceeded the limits he could withstand.
