“Zhang Ruochen is comprehending profound sword techniques? ”
That one masked woman’s eyes kept flickering, appearing somewhat unimpressed and not agreeing with Duanmu Xingling’s point of view.
She coldly said, “What Zhang Ruochen has executed is clearly the Two Yi Sect’s Spirit Grade Lower Grade Martial Skill, the Heavenly Heart Sword Technique. In the Two Yi Sect, even just a Xuanji Realm martial artist is able to cultivate this set of sword techniques, to a great extent, even if it is more profound, how profound can it be?”
Although her face was covered with a thin veil, she still could not hide her extraordinary aura. It could be imagined that underneath the veil, there must be a stunning face.
The masked woman’s pair of snowy eyes were filled with disdain, still treating Zhang Ruochen as a young martial artist who had become famous at a young age and was arrogant.
Such a person was often nothing more than a frog at the bottom of a well, and once he encountered a truly strong person, he would be knocked into a bottomless abyss.
Duanmu Xingling rolled her eyes and said, ”When I say profound, I am not referring to the sword stances, but the Sword Dao realm contained in the sword stances. Don’t you know that Zhang Ruochen has already reached the Sword Mind? His Sword Dao realm is unrivalled in the younger generation.”
“That’s not necessarily true, since Zhang Ruochen was able to cultivate to the Sword Heart Passage, naturally, there will definitely be a Sword Dao genius who has also cultivated to the Sword Heart Passage realm.”
The masked woman’s eyes were ice-cold as she stared at Duanmu Xingling and said in a tit-for-tat tone.
Duanmu Xingling didn’t flinch in the slightest and laughed, “Since that’s the case, we’ll just wait and see. The battle platform is right there anyway, and they’ll be able to decide the winner soon enough.”
On top of the Heavenly Battle Stage, Zhang Ruochen had already performed seventeen consecutive Heavenly Heart Pointing moves, and Lu Flipping Tian had also retreated seventeen times in a row.
Lu Xuan stood up and crossed her arms, somewhat exasperated, and said aloud, “Brother, can you do it or not? If you can’t, then retreat from the battle stage and don’t disgrace our Divine Sword Holy Land.”
Hearing these words, Lu Flipping Tian was furious in his heart and coldly glared at Lu Xuan.
It wasn’t just Lu Xuan, those other martial artists in the martial market fighting arena were also a little impatient.
Originally, they thought that this was an exciting battle between the dragons and tigers, but they didn’t expect that it would be so tedious.
One of them had only performed one sword move from the beginning to the end, and one of them only knew how to dodge from the beginning to the end.
At this rate, what else is there to see in this battle?
In fact, Lu Flipping Tian was also quite frustrated because he could never see through Zhang Ruochen’s subsequent moves, and could only be forced to keep dodging.
After seventeen moves of testing, Lu Flipping Tian finally had a bottom in his heart and was ready to counterattack.
When Zhang Ruochen executed the 18th move of Heavenly Heart Pointing, he advanced instead of retreating, holding a long sword inlaid with gold threads in his hand, flat and straight as a “one”, stabbing straight over.
“Puffing!”
The two swords intersected, splashing out particles of sparks and emitting ear-piercing friction sounds.
Finally, the two swords really exchanged blows, and the martial arts market fighting arena was once again quiet.
Those Heavenly Ranking human experts who had specially rushed here to watch the battle, all of them concentrated and held their breaths, wanting to see Zhang Ruochen and Lu Flipping Tian’s sword techniques, just how advanced they had become?
In a single exchange of moves, the silhouettes separated and retreated to the two sides.
After a split second, Lu Tiantian took the initiative to strike, holding the hilt of his sword with both hands, mobilising his entire body’s true qi, gathering it in his arms, and fiercely chopping down with his sword.
A very domineering sword.
The sword was clean and sharp, without any fancy false moves.
Standing on the viewing platform, the crowd could clearly see that a sword qi, flying out from the sword in Lu Tiantian’s hand, separated the air from left to right, forming a magnificent waterfall of swordsmanship.
The sound of the waterfall could be heard, shaking people’s souls.
“What a terrifying sword, Lu Flipping Heaven’s strength is really powerful, just based on the power of this sword, it’s enough to fight with a cultivator of the Fish Dragon First Transformation.”Duanmu Xingling’s heart tightened, somewhat worried for Zhang Ruochen.
Lu Flipping Sky’s power was beyond her expectations.
One had to know that the Fish Dragon Realm was already beyond the realm of mortals.
The first transformation of the Fish Dragon was known as the “Innate Foetal Breath”, which was a self-subscribing internal qi, holding a firm grip, and could mobilise heaven and earth’s spiritual qi as its own food, reaching the realm of grain cultivation.
Such a person is not called a martial artist, but a cultivator.
As long as one enters the state of foetal breath, even if one were to sleep at the bottom of a great river for a year, one would not suffocate or starve to death. That was a realm that truly transcended mortals, making countless martial artists yearn for it.
Lu Flipping Sky’s strength could be seen as being able to fight against a cultivator of the First Change of the Fish Dragon.
In the face of the powerful sword that Lu Flipping Tian had erupted from, Zhang Ruochen still had his eyes closed.
The expression on his face was as calm as water as he once again performed the move “Heavenly Heart Pointing”.
Only, this move, the Heavenly Heart Pointing Road, seemed to have some different changes from the move he had performed earlier.
“Wow!”
Zhang Ruochen still only flung his arm, but the sword Qi that flew out appeared as a series of shadows that flew in all directions, forming six sword paths.
“Boom Boom!”
The sword qi collided, emitting a series of bursting sounds.
Subsequently, Zhang Ruochen continued to perform his sword moves, and in a single breath, he performed thirty-six Heavenly Heart Pointing Paths. Each move, containing a different flavour of the sword dao.
Lu Flipping Sky also continued to make moves to fend off the sword moves that Zhang Ruochen had executed, but he still fell into a passive state.
“How can this be? Zhang Ruochen is only executing a simple move of a Spirit Grade Lower Grade Sword Technique, why is he able to deathly suppress me?”
“No, Zhang Ruochen is in sword enlightenment. It appears to be just a sword move, but it contains the supreme true meaning of the Dao of the Sword.”
Only by breaking Zhang Ruochen’s state of sword enlightenment could he be disrupted.
Only then would Lu Flipping Tian be able to take the upper hand.
After figuring this out, Lu Flipping Tian stopped trying to tangle with Zhang Ruochen and retreated to the edge of the battle platform, holding his battle sword with both hands and raising it above his head.
He mobilised the Divine Wood Qi in his body to form a Divine Wood Domain.
On the battle platform, the heaven and earth aura continuously condensed into a green vine and blade, tougher than real vines and sharper than real blades.
The vines and blades grew wildly, covering the entire battle platform.
Only a divine wood body could cultivate a divine wood domain.
Within the domain, everything was under the control of Lu Flipping Heaven.
Even a single leaf could immediately turn into a murderous blade.
Sensing the danger coming, Zhang Ruochen woke up from the state of Sword Enlightenment, and without hesitation, as if by instinct, he swung his sword and chopped out, breaking apart the vines and leaves and striking at Lu Flipping Tian.
“Zhang Ruochen, you’ve finally entered a fighting state!”
Seeing Zhang Ruochen initiating the attack, not only was Lu Flipping Tian not afraid, he was instead overjoyed as he manipulated one vine after another and chopped at Zhang Ruochen.
Each vine was a sword.
Dozens of vines collided with Zhang Ruochen’s Body Protecting Heavenly Deity, emitting a huge true qi vibration sound, cracking the sword moves Zhang Ruochen had executed and forcing Zhang Ruochen back two steps.
