The disciple of the Sword Sect, who had just been stopped by Xi Xiang, was stunned for a moment when he saw Lu Qingshan suddenly arriving. After he came to his senses, many complicated emotions flashed across his eyes when he looked at Lu Qingshan.
There were feelings of hope, regret, and relief, but there was not the slightest dissatisfaction or complaint about Lu Qingshan's late arrival.
“Although this request is not so easy for you,” he slowly retreated back to the East Region cultivator team. When passing by Lu Qingshan, he paused for a moment and said through gritted teeth: “But... please be sure to drag Zhongtian Region into the water yourself!”
Lu Qingshan knew this disciple of the Sword Sect.
If I remember correctly, his name should be Mo Yiqing.
Because when he first entered the Sword Sect and practiced sword at Qingyaping, Mo Yiqing was one of the many Nascent Soul brothers who took the initiative to "feed the sword" to him.
Mo Yiqing did not ask Lu Qingshan to win the final victory in this competition because it was unrealistic.
He just hoped that Lu Qingshan could represent the Sword Sect and single-handedly eliminate all the remaining Zhongtian Domain cultivators. When the six domains joined forces to exclude them, he would personally send the leading Zhongtian Domain away first!
Currently, there are six cultivators still in Zhongtian Domain. Among them, Li Feng, who is defending the arena, is ranked fourth on the Yellow List, and there is another one who is ranked twelfth on the Yellow List.
No matter how you look at it, it seems to be an extremely daunting task.
But which of the great reputation that Lu Qingshan has gained since he entered the Sword Sect seems to be taken for granted?
He sincerely believed that Lu Qingshan could create such a miracle again today.
Lu Qingshan could feel that the ten cultivators from the Eastern Region who were participating in this competition were now focusing their eager gazes on him.
In addition, there were countless other people with the same gaze outside Yangxin Terrace.
His mood was a little complicated.
Compared to Lu Qingshan, Mo Yiqing's mood was actually more complicated.
Not long ago, the young Jindan sword cultivator who had just joined the sect, the little junior brother, still needed the care and feeding of swords by his senior brothers on Qingyaping. Now, he has grown to a point where he is ashamed of himself, and has become the one who calms the Sword Sect in its current predicament.
How long has it been?
If you think about it, it’s only been three short years.
What an enviable talent!
…
"Okay," Lu Qingshan nodded slightly to Mo Yiqing. His voice was not loud, but firm and full of power. He said softly, "Then let's start with Zhongtian Territory."
He turned around and said respectfully to the Qingmei King who was standing with his hands behind his back, "I'm sorry for taking up some time."
The Green Eyebrow King nodded, seemingly unconcerned, "Let's get started."
The appearance of Lu Qingshan has made a large number of people feel uneasy, and the first to be affected is Marquis Nanming.
If Xue Hanfeng's counterattack had already dealt a heavy blow to the fighting spirit of the Zhongtian Realm, making their hopes of winning the Dojo Competition extremely slim.
The appearance of Lu Qingshan was like a bolt from the blue, which immediately extinguished their tiny glimmer of hope.
"This Sword Sect is really a mad dog, it just keeps staring at me and biting me..." Nanming Hou gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart, while at the same time feeling a little unwilling and regretful.
If the previous battles had ended faster, would Lu Qingshan have been unable to catch up?
If we had not taken the initiative to target the Eastern Region, we would not have fallen into such an embarrassing situation now, right?
Lu Qingshan had no idea of ​​the regret in Nanming Hou's heart. He just walked slowly forward to the side of the Mountain and Sea Pillar, facing Li Feng from a distance.
"Lu Qingshan..." Li Feng's expression became serious as he looked at the extremely young swordsman in front of him, who was ranked one place higher than himself on the Yellow List.
He is a man who thinks highly of himself, but that doesn't mean he is arrogant.
As one of the best among Nascent Soul cultivators, the only ones he truly feared were the cultivators in the top three of the Yellow List.
At this time, King Qingmei had already activated the Mountain and Sea Pillar again.
"This is a small world, the Cloud Sea World." As he spoke, a ray of light emanated from the Mountain and Sea Pillar, enveloping the two of them.
When the spiritual light faded, both of them disappeared.
The Sea of ​​Clouds Realm, as its name suggests, is shrouded in clouds and mist, with extremely poor visibility.
This should be the favorite place for meditation practitioners, because this kind of environment is just right for them to hide their bodies. But for magic practitioners, spiritual practitioners, and sword practitioners who specialize in inner sword, this is an unfavorable terrain for them.
However, everyone knows that Lu Qingshan is an expert in both internal and external swordsmanship, so as far as the duel between Lu Qingshan and Li Feng is concerned, the Yunhai Realm is actually a relatively fair small realm.
In front of the screen wall, everyone was silent, holding their breath and concentrating.
This is a thrilling battle between the fourth on the Yellow List and the third on the Yellow List. If it weren't for this Dojo competition, they might not be able to see such a wonderful fight until they die, so naturally they don't want to miss any details.
In the eyes of everyone, Lu Qingshan and Li Feng appeared on both sides of the sea of ​​clouds, only ten miles apart.
"In this situation, sitting back and waiting should be the best option. After all, the sea of ​​clouds is lingering. Whoever moves first will cause the clouds to change, which will expose his position to the other person. Li Feng is a physical cultivator with thick skin and flesh. Even if he falls into the hands of others first, it will not be a big deal. Sword cultivators don't have this ability." Xi Xiang thought to himself in the East Region team.
As an experienced swordsman at the seventh level, he had experienced countless battles, so the judgments he made were naturally very accurate.
But what he didn't expect was that after Lu Qingshan appeared in the Cloud Sea Realm, he didn't just sit there and wait, but attacked immediately.
A fiery red sword appeared in his hand, and then he moved towards the center of the sea of ​​clouds as fast as lightning.
"Ah, what is this kid doing?!" Xi Xiang couldn't help but frown. He first found it difficult to understand Lu Qingshan's behavior, and then comforted himself, "This kid is a killer, and he has rich experience in fighting. He shouldn't be unable to see this. He must have other intentions..."
If Lu Qingshan knew what Xi Xiang was thinking, he would probably cry out in injustice.
Because he really had no ulterior motives, he was simply patrolling, trying to find Li Feng's whereabouts, or let Li Feng find his location.
Anyway, there is not much difference between the two for him.
When it comes to finding people, the process is to first find a midpoint and then radiate to the surrounding areas.
Lu Qingshan only covered his body with spiritual consciousness within a hundred feet instead of releasing it completely, because releasing it completely would consume too much spiritual consciousness.
Dozens of breaths later, just as Xi Xiang had judged, because Lu Qingshan's movements were so big, Li Feng discovered him before Lu Qingshan found Li Feng.
The sound of breaking wind suddenly arose.
The next moment, Li Feng, carrying his own Dharma image, blasted away the sea of ​​clouds, appeared behind Lu Qingshan in an unstoppable manner, and slashed at Lu Qingshan with a knife.
Li Feng swung his sword quickly and fiercely, with dense sword energy on the sword.
The crowd in front of the screen wall suddenly exclaimed.
They knew very well what such a ferocious blow meant to a sword cultivator .
In these countless wide-eyed eyes, Lu Qingshan, who seemed to be in a dangerous situation, seemed to have a third eye on the back of his head. He backhanded and blocked Li Feng's sudden knife attack just in time.
clang!
The sword tip and the knife blade touched each other, and there was a crisp sound of jade clashing.
The sword energy on the sword tip and the sword energy on the blade also collided with each other, shattering into pieces and tearing the surrounding clouds.
In a flash, the two men attacked and defended for nearly ten rounds in this small space.
Li Feng swung his knife vigorously, while Lu Qingshan moved like a swimming dragon. His figure was so fast that it could not be seen clearly. Only the occasional sound of metal clashing could be heard.
Finally, with a loud bang of metal clashing, Li Feng was knocked back several feet.
Lu Qingshan, however, stood there motionless.
Li Feng looked at Lu Qingshan, or rather the dragon bird in Lu Qingshan's hand, with a wary look on his face.
The sword moves lightly, while the knife moves heavily.
In terms of strength alone, he could feel that Lu Qingshan was probably inferior to him.
The reason why he was at a disadvantage in this fight, even though he was the one who took the initiative, was because the quality of the sword in Lu Qingshan's hand was far superior to the knife in his hand, and it seemed to have great power.
In other words, he suffered a loss because of the magic weapon.
Pseudo Taoist tool.
Li Feng's eyes flickered as he recalled the evaluation of Lu Qingshan's natal sword on the yellow list.
However, while he was still thinking in his mind, Lu Qingshan was already rushing towards him with a sword in hand.
The sword cultivator took the initiative to launch a close combat attack against the physical cultivator, who was known as the king of close combat.
This was like a mockery, causing Li Feng's eyes to suddenly flash with endless fighting spirit.
Vast spiritual power roared out, he clenched the sword in his hand, and infinite sword energy appeared on the blade, like a streak of silk, containing extremely violent and sharp fluctuations, the momentum was astonishing, and he chopped down at Lu Qingshan angrily.
Wherever the blade passed, a violent gust of wind was stirred up, pushing the thick sea of ​​clouds to both sides.
It really has the power of cutting off the water with one knife.
As the blade was chopping down, the streak of sword energy flew out from the blade and covered Lu Qingshan's position in front of him.
Before the dojo competition began, Nanming Hou introduced to Li Feng in detail the methods of several noteworthy cultivators.
As Lu Qingshan was the third imaginary enemy, he was naturally the focus of attention.
"His sword skills are extraordinary, his combat awareness is outstanding, and in close combat, he has almost omniscience. Single-target attacks are difficult to be effective. This is most likely the magic of the true meaning of cause and effect."
In the brief fight before, Lu Qingshan seemed to have demonstrated this ability, and he narrowly avoided his attacks several times.
Therefore, the sword that Li Feng swung out was accompanied by a long river of sword energy, which was an unavoidable means of group attack.
Of course, this method consumes a lot of spiritual energy.
But Li Feng understood better that he must not think too much when facing a strong enemy like Lu Qingshan.
It's not easy to win, and you still want to save spiritual energy?
…
In front of the screen wall, Xue Hanfeng's face was already solemn.
He was previously defeated by Li Feng's combined attack of Lion's Roar and the Long River of Sword Energy.
Therefore, he was very clear about the power of this long river of sword energy.
Of course, compared with the attack methods of sword cultivators, the long river of sword energy is still somewhat inferior.
The problem is, Lu Qingshan is a sword cultivator and his body is fragile!
Moreover, although he was reluctant to admit it, he had to admit that he was not good at using swords, so he was actually a little nervous watching this kind of close combat.
Even Xue Hanfeng was so nervous, not to mention those monks who were not very skilled in cultivation and were watching the battle. They were all terrified and had cold sweats running down the backs of their palms as if they were in the scene themselves.
The real person involved, Lu Qingshan, faced with the river of sword energy coming towards him, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
Contrary to Li Feng's judgment, he actually did not use his precognitive power.
The reason why he was able to dodge Li Feng's attacks with a few moves accurately to a millimeter was entirely due to his own reaction ability and fighting skills - if he really used the precognitive power, Li Feng's attacks would have all failed.
The activation of the true meaning of cause and effect consumes a lot of spiritual energy, so he is not prepared to act rashly.
This wasn't the only battle he had!
And now, he didn't want to play house with Li Feng anymore.
Let's make it quick and decisive.
Lu Qingshan thought to himself and swung his sword directly.
Dragon Bird: Dragon Breath.
He let out a low cry in his heart, and a snake-like shadow of a blue dragon appeared above the sword.
Filled with red flames, the virtual image of the blue dragon turned into a long flaming snake, opened its huge mouth made of flames, and bit towards the long river of sword energy.
Whether in terms of power or size, the dragon's breath is far superior to the river of swords.
Li Feng's face changed slightly, knowing that this move was not easy to deal with.
The golden light of the Dharma image surrounding him was shining brightly, as if it had come alive. It took a step forward and stood in front of him, and the skin on his body was faintly giving off a cold and sharp metallic color, like a piece of iron plate.
The situation is clear, and what follows will be the simplest and most direct offensive and defensive confrontation, and competition of contradictions.
Li Feng used his strongest defense.
The Dharma body protection and the iron wall body are both defensive means of superb skills and extremely high realm, which makes him indestructible among those in the same realm.
However, Lu Qingshan's attack methods had already surpassed the Nascent Soul realm level.
After the red-flame snake transformed from the Taoist magical power dragon breath swallowed up Li Feng's long river of sword energy, its power had not dissipated yet and it directly bombarded his Dharma image.
The power of the dragon's breath directly impacted Li Feng's Dharma image, causing its divine light to dim.
But Li Feng was ranked fourth on the Yellow List after all, so he was not so vulnerable, and he managed to hold on in the end.
But before Li Feng could catch his breath and continue to exert strength for the Dharma, he was horrified to find that after the red-flame fire snake that had just dispersed, another green snake was rushing towards him.
Li Feng's pupils suddenly shrank, and his eyes were filled with the green snake's extremely ferocious head.
What is that? And why is it so scary?
In terms of power, the green snake is actually three times more terrifying than the previous red-flame fire snake!
However, the green snake was hiding behind the fire snake, so Li Feng, who was concentrating on dealing with the dragon's breath attack, didn't even notice when the green snake was released.
First use a smaller move to test the enemy's strength and confuse the enemy, then secretly attack the enemy, hide other moves in the first move, and then explode to defeat the enemy. This is a very common and monotonous fighting routine in the world of cultivation.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for a Nascent Soul cultivator like Li Feng to fall into the trap.
The problem is that Longque's dragon breath ability is extremely powerful and ferocious, and it doesn't look like a test tactic in any way.
You use the Joker to confuse your opponent in your Landlord game? Is that so extravagant?
Li Feng had a point but nowhere to express it.
He sensed the danger, but it was too late. He could only hope that his Dharma image and iron body could help him withstand the attack.
A tremendous force burst out from the green snake and hit Li Feng.
As expected, his dim Dharma image, which had not yet been replenished with spiritual energy, immediately shattered and turned into spots of golden light that spread out. Then the green snake bit Li Feng's skin, which had a golden and iron-colored luster.
Bang!
A huge bang resounded throughout the small world, and a circle of violent gusts of wind spread out from Li Feng as the center, clearing away all the clouds and mist within a radius of several miles, and replacing them with a vast expanse of green light.
Immediately, Li Feng's body shook violently, and the green snake pushed him in the abdomen and sent him flying backwards.
The long sword in his hand was even shaken out of his hand.
Phew!
The low voice continued to sound, the layers of sword energy that made up the green snake were constantly dissipating, and the size of the green snake was constantly shrinking.
In contrast, the color of Li Feng's skin gradually became darker.
After Li Feng was pushed back a hundred feet by the Green Snake's sword energy, he finally ran out of breath and couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood from his mouth. It was obvious that he was injured.
In this conflict, Li Feng's proud defense was completely defeated.
Even when Lu Qingshan was using the Green Snake Sword Qi, he only used 60% of his strength - using the Green Snake Sword Qi with all his strength would also consume a lot of spiritual energy.
A huge hand made of spiritual light appeared at the right time, grabbed the Green Snake Sword Qi that had shrunk by 70% compared to the initial size, and wiped it out.
Two gentle rays of light enveloped the figures of Lu Qingshan and Li Feng.
A moment later, the two were teleported out of the Cloud Sea Realm.
…
"The sixteenth battle, the East Region wins."
In front of the Mountain and Sea Pillar, Lu Qingshan and Li Feng stood quietly.
Throughout the world, astonished eyes kept looking at the young figure standing there with a sword in hand.
From the official fight to the decision of the winner, less than ten breaths of time passed.
Did Lu Qingshan win just like that?
Li Feng is not some good-for-nothing. He is ranked fourth on the Yellow List as “One Knife Cuts Water” and a physical cultivator who can theoretically restrain sword cultivators.
How could the battle between the two powers, which they had expected to be a fierce and exciting one, come to an end just like that? !
This made the monks watching the battle feel a sense of loss, thinking, "Has it started? It's already over."
But can you say that this battle was not exciting?
That's also impossible.
The whole process of this battle really made them dumbfounded. If they had not seen it with their own eyes but heard it with their own ears, they would have thought that someone else had "whitewashed" and exaggerated it.
Unfortunately, most of the monks present were still confused about the final round of confrontation that would decide the outcome.
But it is not a big problem, because soon there will be a "King of Understanding" who will start to explain the details of this battle, and they just need to express amazement and offer some admiring glances as "reward money".
…
King Qingmei acted in time, and although Li Feng was injured, it was only a minor injury.
At this moment, he was looking at Lu Qingshan with a serious expression.
Lu Qingshan's green snake sword energy still makes him feel extremely nervous.
Sword Qi taking shape is a skill that only appears in sword cultivators at the Lianxu level. However, if it appeared on Lu Qingshan, who can even be called the most outstanding sword cultivator at the Yuanying level in the world, he would not be too surprised.
What he couldn't accept was that the defensive means he was so proud of would be so vulnerable in front of this green snake sword energy.
Li Feng felt frustrated at the defeat because he still had many tricks up his sleeves - for example, the Lion's Roar, which had been very effective in the previous battle, was defeated in an unexpected conflict.
But he lost as a matter of course.
Because the real battles in the world of cultivation are often like this.
There is a high probability that you have been beheaded before you have had the chance to display all your abilities, use your powerful magic weapon, or display your most hidden magical power.
The fight between life and death is so cruel. It is never a best-of-three competition where the spiritual power fights and then the soul fights, and then the soul fights and then the magic weapon fights. You may be dead if the spiritual power fails to fight.
Still want to fight? Want to fight again?
Go to Huangquan and talk to the Lord of Huangquan Prison!
A cultivator at Li Feng's level would naturally not have such an extremely naive thought as "I was just careless for a moment".
So even though he felt very upset, he could only walk back to the group of monks in Zhongtian Domain with heavy steps.
…
Lu Qingshan did not take this victory too seriously.
For him at this moment, defeating a fourth-placed player on the Yellow List was nothing to be proud of.
He silently took out a pill for restoring spiritual power given to him by his master Xia Daoyun from his storage ring, swallowed it in one gulp, closed his eyes and concentrated, and began to practice the skills to restore his spiritual power.
The battle with Li Feng did not actually consume too much of his spiritual power.
But in order to catch up with this competition, he flew on the sword at full speed for a long time, which caused a major loss of spiritual energy.
The scene became quiet, but the burning gazes directed at Lu Qingshan did not stop.
…
Two hours later, Lu Qingshan opened his eyes.
"The seventeenth fight is about to begin." King Qingmei was still very frugal with his words.
There was silence off the field. All the remaining monks who had not yet entered the field were indifferent. Many of them even began to look at each other in surprise.
If nothing unexpected happens, the one that will be unlucky will still be Zhongtian Region.
Let them suffer first. Whoever stands out is the one with a broken brain!
Marquis Nanming looked depressed and bleak.
After watching the battle just now, it was impossible for him to have any hope of luck anymore.
“Forget it, forget it. They said they were joining forces to exclude the Eastern Region, but in the end, I was the one who was excluded.” Marquis Nanming sighed in his heart.
When the group of monks watching the battle saw this scene, they sighed.
They had already anticipated this situation after Lu Qingshan won easily, so they were not surprised when it actually happened.
But the feeling of emotion is inevitable.
After waiting for a while, King Qingmei saw that no one challenged him, so he announced that Lu Qingshan would designate his opponent.
Lu Qingshan's gaze fell directly on the Zhongtian Domain camp, and then he pointed casually and selected a cultivator with a handsome and mature appearance.
"You."
It's really just a random finger.
Since he is planning to annihilate all the participating monks from Zhongtian Realm, what is the point of considering the order of priority?
