"Human half-step Martial Emperors are indeed not simple … They're much better than half-step Supreme-Being beasts in terms of adaptability!"
Qin Fang could not help but exclaim.
He had already killed a few half-step Supreme-Being beasts. The difficulty was not low, but it was definitely not too high … As long as he grasped the right method, they were even easier to deal with than peak Supreme-Being human experts.
However, if a half-step Supreme-Being beast was replaced by a human half-step Martial Emperor, the situation would be completely different.
Humans were the wisest of all creatures. Their intellect was much higher than that of beasts. Their instincts might not be as good as those beasts, but their adaptability to all kinds of situations was many times better than those beasts.
Although a half-step Supreme-Being beast was the same level as a half-step Martial Emperor, the difference between the two was rather obvious.
Qin Fang was dealing with a half-step Supreme-Being spiritual beast. Even if he couldn't kill the half-step Supreme-Being spiritual beast directly, he would definitely be able to suppress it firmly!
However, against a young half-step Martial Emperor like Song Lian, Qin Fang only had a small advantage. He didn't have the slightest advantage, let alone one-sidedly suppressing Song Lian …
From this, one could tell how difficult it was to deal with a half-step Martial Emperor!
Of course, this did not mean that Qin Fang could not kill a half-step Martial Emperor like Song Lian … After going through the trials in the Godslaying Secret Realm, Qin Fang's strength had improved greatly. He was definitely many times stronger than before he entered the Godslaying Secret Realm.
Although he had not reached the level of a Half-step Martial Emperor, in terms of personal strength, he had already reached this level … Putting aside Qin Fang's various treasures and unique skills, in a one-on-one duel, Qin Fang's strength was definitely comparable to the old top experts like the Four Emperors.
With the support of Qin Fang's various treasures and ultimate techniques, his combat strength was definitely at the half-step Martial Emperor level … He was even stronger than ordinary half-step Martial Emperors. He was close to a real Martial Emperor!
"Kill!"
Song Lian's face turned even uglier after he repelled the surprise attack of Qin Fang's three flying swords.
From the bottom of his heart, he looked down on Qin Fang, this kind of "country bumpkin". Even if Qin Fang's talent was so outstanding that even a genius like him would feel jealous, it could not change the arrogance in his heart …
However, he had never imagined that a genius like him, a half-step Martial Emperor whose cultivation was one level higher than Qin Fang's, would be forced to such an extent by Qin Fang. There was no glory on his face at all. It was as if he had been ruthlessly slapped a few times.
He couldn't accept this reality, so … he had to fight back!
With a furious roar, Song Lian immediately launched his counterattack ….
Clang clang clang ~ ~ ~
With a series of crisp sounds, the sword in Song Lian's hand suddenly flew into the air. With just a slight shake, the sword immediately turned into hundreds of sharp swords that shone with a cold light.
"Eh …"
This scene stunned Qin Fang slightly. He muttered to himself, "Sword Formation?"
Song Lian came from the Peng Lai Secret Realm. Since ancient times, the Peng Lai Secret Realm had been very powerful. Not only was its foundation abnormally deep, but it had also been unaffected by the numerous tribulations of the pugilistic world. Instead, it had taken advantage of the chaos to steal many powerful secret techniques.
Therefore, Song Lian's attack this time was definitely an extremely powerful ultimate technique. Qin Fang could only vaguely guess that the hundreds of swords were a sword formation when he saw them. As for what kind of secret sword formation it was, he had no idea. After all, Song Lian had not used his ultimate technique yet.
"Kill!"
As if confirming Qin Fang's guess, Song Lian controlled the Sword Domain to suppress Qin Fang's Four Appearances Universe Cauldron. At the same time, he formed a sword seal and activated the sword formation above his head, launching a fierce attack at Qin Fang.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh ~ ~
With such a uniform sound, the sword formation was formed in an instant. It ferociously attacked Qin Fang … Not only was it ferocious, it also summoned a violent Gang Qi and sealed off the surrounding void.
"This is …"
Qin Fang's eyebrows trembled slightly as he felt the unparalleled and terrifying offensive power of the sword formation. He vaguely guessed that it was a secret sword formation that had been lost for a long time … Or, it could be said that this sword formation was slightly related to him, because this sword formation came from the Mount Shu Sword Sect!
"The Starry Sword Formation of the Mount Shu Sword Sect …"
When this sword formation engulfed Qin Fang, the area covered by the sword formation changed completely … The surroundings became pitch-black. Only the stars in the sky could be seen. It seemed as if one was in a boundless void.
The stars in the sky flickered with a dim light. They seemed harmless … However, as each star lit up, an extremely sharp sword aura would attack Qin Fang's body.
The frequency of these stars lighting up became faster and faster. The number of stars would also increase. Naturally, their attacking power would also become more and more powerful. Naturally, their killing power would also become more terrifying …
It could be said that the Starry Sword Formation of the Mount Shu Sword Sect was famous for its time … This was a sword formation that was extremely destructive. At the same time, it could trap and kill. It could also deplete the opponent's Gang Qi. It was a peerless sword formation that killed many birds with one stone!
Evidently, Song Lian wanted to use this sword formation to kill Qin Fang. He knew that the possibility of success was not very high. More importantly, he wanted to deplete Qin Fang's Gang Qi and vital energy …
Qin Fang was still using the Four Appearances Cauldron. As long as he was trapped by the Starry Sword Formation, he would be unable to continue using it. The threat of the Four Appearances Cauldron would be greatly reduced, and Song Lian's opportunity would come …
"Song Lian, you idiot …"
However, after understanding Song Lian's intentions, Qin Fang scolded him mockingly. "Of all the moves he could use, he chose to use the Starry Sword Formation … he must have changed his brain!"
That's right. Qin Fang did not care about Song Lian's Starry Sword Formation at all.
It could even be said that Song Lian's use of this move against Qin Fang was a huge mistake. It was not inferior to the Hunyuan Force from before …
The reason was simple. The Starry Sword Formation might be effective against other people, but it was useless against Qin Fang … Song Lian was too smart for his own good. He did not understand the true nature of the Starry Sword Formation at all!
And this true nature was only known by one person in the Mount Shu Sword Sect. That person was the leader of the Mount Shu Sword Sect, who wielded the Art of Sword Manipulation … The Starry Sword Formation was a sword formation. It could be used by one person, or by multiple people. But in reality, it was a sword formation that supported the Art of Sword Manipulation!
In other words, the true core of the Starry Sword Formation was not the sword formation itself, but the Art of Sword Manipulation!
However, it was a pity that only the Sect Leader of the Mount Shu Sword Sect could cultivate the Art of Sword Manipulation. Such a core secret was naturally hidden. After that, the Mount Shu Sword Sect was almost wiped out overnight, and the Art of Sword Manipulation mysteriously disappeared.
The Starry Sword Formation was obviously taken away by the masters of the Penglai Secret Realm. That was why Song Lian cultivated this sword formation and used it on Qin Fang … He did not expect that he had dug a hole for himself, and he did not even know that he had jumped into it!
"Flying sword!"
Qin Fang was worried that he couldn't think of a better way to break through Song Lian's defense, but Song Lian, this idiot, delivered himself to him … Qin Fang temporarily relaxed his control over the Four Symbols Universe Cauldron, and then fully activated the Sword Control Technique!
"Kill!"
Noticing that the Four Appearances Cauldron was loosening, Song Lian was elated. His first reaction was that Qin Fang's Gang Qi was unable to hold on under the pressure of the Starry Sword Formation. Once the pressure from the Four Appearances Cauldron lessened, Song Lian's Sword Realm could be freed up, and he immediately unleashed a ferocious attack on Qin Fang.
"Idiot!"
Qin Fang cursed under his breath. After that, he did not care about the changes in Song Lian's Sword Realm. He immediately channeled the Art of Sword Manipulation and formed a connection with the Starry Sword Formation. "Sword formation … Return!"
Buzz buzz buzz ~ ~ ~
Qin Fang's three flying swords flew in mid-air for a while, and the stars in the sky above suddenly released a blinding light. After that, everything returned to normal. However, Qin Fang's three flying swords suddenly disappeared.
"Starry Sword Soul Chase!"
Qin Fang was not worried about the disappearance of his flying swords. Instead, a bright smile appeared on his face. With a thought, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He immediately channeled his Gang Qi, and the stars above his head abruptly changed to Song Lian's.
"Ugh …"
Song Lian was in the middle of using his Sword Realm to launch a sneak attack on Qin Fang. He did not expect the Starry Sword Formation to suddenly change, and a terrifying aura instantly pressed down on him.
Even more terrifying was …
The Starry Sword Formation above his head locked down the surrounding space, and the countless stars in the sky lit up fiercely. Immediately, violent Sword Qi formed a sharp sword net that covered the sky as it attacked Song Lian.
"How can this be?"
Even with Song Lian's strength, he was unable to react in time. He was completely enveloped by the violent Sword Qi, as if he was swallowed into the stomach of a ferocious beast.
"Four Symbols Universe Cauldron … Raging Flames Fury!"
Qin Fang, who should have been trapped by the Starry Sword Formation, easily broke free. He immediately manipulated the Four Symbols Universe Cauldron to explode … Song Lian, a half-step Martial Emperor, had a very stubborn Sword Realm. If he did not make a move while Song Lian was preoccupied, did he have to wait until Song Lian charged out of the Starry Sword Formation?
Puchi! Puchi!
The Four Symbols Colored Glass Fire immediately flew out of the Four Symbols Universe Cauldron. It burned with incomparable ferocity as it crazily bombarded Song Lian's sword domain. Without the full support of anyone, not only was the sword domain's offensive power weak, but its defensive power had also fallen to rock bottom. Faced with the ferocious attacks of the Four Symbols Colored Glass Fire, it was immediately forced back.
If Song Lian was not a half-step Martial Emperor, and his Gang Qi and Domain were extremely pure, the Sword Realm would have been broken by Qin Fang long ago … Even so, the area covered by the Sword Realm was constantly being nibbled away. It would not be long before Qin Fang's Four Symbols Colored Glass Fire broke through it!
