Chapter 398: Dual Dragons Showdown (Part 2)
A single sword strike, cleaves the mountain!
This is the full-force strike of a rare Nascent Soul Great Cultivator in the world!
No holding back, no underestimating the enemy, Cao Xie's move was meant to be a fatal blow!
Amidst the vast Sword Qi storm, Tian Wu's figure appeared infinitely insignificant. His ant-like body wavered, but just as he was about to be torn apart, a spark of spirit light erupted from within him!
"What?"
Cao Xie's pupils contracted sharply.
He saw the other party pay, and two Xuanzhu appeared. One was a Spiritual Pearl absorbed from a Spirit Vein by the Destructive Spirit Array, the other was the Praying Sky Pearl.
At this moment.
Inside the Praying Sky Pearl, it was like a whirlpool, devouring the Spiritual Energy from the Spiritual Pearl. During this process, a surge of clean energy burst out, expanding toward the heavens and earth.
"Power of Laws?!"
A flash of surprise crossed Cao Xie's face, but he did not panic. The Sword Qi condensed in front of him became even more violent, and the Great Perfection pressure of the Nascent Soul crushed the surrounding mountains and stones into dust, causing vegetation to wither and rocks to collapse wherever it went, with power almost destroying heaven and earth.
Until it touched the waves of clean energy emanating from the Praying Sky Pearl.
His Sword Qi, upon reaching the Green Light Domain, melted away like snow in the sun, vanishing in the blink of an eye, and the phenomena stirred up also dissipated completely.
It was as if, just a moment ago, it was "the storm is brewing," and the next moment it turned into clear skies, everything came to an abrupt halt!
"All Laws, Forbidden!!!"
Chen Sansi raised the Prayer Bead high, a loud shout echoed through the clouds, as a grand wave of clean energy rippled out centered around him.
The law of All Laws Forbidden also shrouded the surrounding area!
The golden light on his body surface dimmed, and the mana and True Power within him were instantly drained clean.
Having lost the support of cultivation, the injuries Chen Sansi had been suppressing for days burst forth, internal and external injuries alike, and the intense pain alone almost caused him to faint from instability.
Cao Xie certainly couldn't escape either.
After his full-force Sword Qi collapsed, he immediately cast two more Spells, but they vanished into thin air like before.
The Heavenly Killing True Monarch looked down and found that the Green Blade in his hand had completely lost its spirituality, like an iron sword purchased from the mortal world, without any special attributes.
He tried to use the Instantaneous Technique to escape, but the Wind Queen's Magic under his feet shattered, and his meridians, bones, even flesh and blood inside were severely weakened, completely reduced to a mortal state.
This sudden feeling of power depletion left Cao Xie extremely uncomfortable; he looked at the white robe in disbelief: "This power is not something a Lower Realm cultivator can control, where did you get it from?"
"Clang—"
Chen Sansi did not answer, he simply drew the Dragon Abyss Sword with his left hand and held it across his chest, while his right hand lifted the Bright Silver Spear like a silver snake flickering its tongue, the gun tip pointed precisely at the distant figure in the green robe.
Just at this moment, the violent law change triggered a Heavenly Phenomenon. With a loud crack of thunder, torrential rain poured down from the sky, washing over the entire mountain range.
"No wonder, no wonder Feng Qi and they couldn't kill you."
Amidst the violent rain, a tinge of jealousy flashed in Cao Xie's pupils: "You, youngster, truly have immense Qi Fortune upon you!"
Every breath Chen Sansi took would tug at his internal injuries, weakening him each time. Why would he indulge in idle talk?
He struck first, the Bright Silver Spear's "Dragon Lifting Head" thrust straight at Heavenly Killing True Monarch's deadliest point in the mid-chest, with the spear shaft trembling with waist force, splitting into nine shadows mid-flight.
Unexpectedly, Cao Xie advanced instead of retreating, with the Green Blade scraping upward along the spear shaft, drawing a burst of sparks under the thunderous rumble.
The two clashed fiercely.
Without mana, and without Magical Treasures, only iron and flesh clashing head-on, the sound of dense iron striking echoed in the rain curtain.
After a brief exchange, even with Chen Sansi never underestimating the enemy, a serious expression emerged on his face.
For top-notch Sword Cultivators, it's not just about cultivating Sword Intent, but also honing exquisite swordsmanship.
The peak of technique is Martial Saint.
As a leading Sword Cultivator from Heavenly Water, even without cultivating Martial Arts, Cao Xie's martial arts prowess would not be weak.
Yet the opponent exceeded Chen Sansi's expectations!
Because…
The horse boy knew Extreme Divine Power!
How could Chen Sansi not recognize the divine skills he had self-created?
The martial arts deployed by Cao Xie at that moment were clearly Extreme Divine Power!
Where did he learn it from?
Qingxu Sect, Lord Taishan's place!
There, Chen Sansi had once executed a move on Cao Xie using Extreme Divine Power.
Just one move, and he was able to comprehend it, and even master it completely in just a few short years?
"Clang!"
After another frontal clash, both parties retreated a few steps in the rain curtain.
Cao Xie looked at the surprise on his opponent's face, revealing a mocking smile: "Youngster, did you really think with the support of All Laws Forbidden, you have a guaranteed win?"
Many years ago, he too practiced Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation.
It was just that due to the Spiritual Energy scarcity in the Eastern Continent, which delayed him for too many years, leading to insufficient lifespan, he ultimately had to abandon Martial Arts.
But that didn't mean his Martial Arts qualification was poor.
On the contrary, if Cao Xie were younger, with no need to worry about lifespan, he could fully specialize in Martial Arts and still reach today's realm!
Even after being forced to exclusively cultivate on the Immortal Path, his research in Sword Dao never ceased, reaching the pinnacle after centuries.
After that, Cao Xie sensed he could further advance but couldn't find the method, until he saw "Lu Shengzhi" make a move that day, thoroughly comprehending it, and subsequently gaining divine skills.
He gave no respite to his opponent, his moves with the Green Blade becoming increasingly fierce.
Amid the torrential rain resembling the Heavenly River pouring down, Chen Sansi's left hand defended with the Dragon Abyss Sword against Cao Xie's Green Blade, sparking water vapor at their clash, while his right hand drove the Bright Silver Spear forward like a venomous dragon aiming at Cao Xie's throat, but just as it was about to hit, the Green Blade intercepted the spear tip, sending a shower of fiery sparks mixed with the explosive peal of thunder.
Chen Sansi took two steps back, evading the cunning attack, while the Dragon Abyss Sword swept out again to target the vital spot, as they fought back and forth relentlessly, neither gaining the upper hand!
Yet…
Chen Sansi faced a serious problem.
As he grew increasingly weak with each passing moment due to his comparable level of martial arts prowess, he found himself at a significant disadvantage.
"Urgh…"
Chen Sansi coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood, staggering backward for several steps, desperately trying to steady himself on the spear to maintain his footing in the rain.
