"She really is strong!"
As soon as Guhan clashed with the Heavenly Sword, he felt a huge pressure from the Heavenly Sword. Indeed, whether it was strength or speed, she was much stronger than Guhan.
Guhan exchanged dozens of blows with her, but he didn't gain the slightest bit of advantage.
Guhan used many exquisite moves, but they were all blocked by Heavenly Sword's brute force. On the contrary, Guhan had to focus and use all kinds of dodging techniques to negate Heavenly Sword's attacks.
Just like that, the two of them exchanged dozens of blows, and it seemed like neither could do anything to the other.
"Where did this guy called Guhan come from? How can his swordsmanship be so terrifying!"
Ashima was dumbfounded as she watched the battle between Guhan and Heavenly Sword. Why did this guy called Guhan's swordsmanship seem to be not much weaker than Liunian Ling's?
"Can I block Heavenly Sword's attack?"
On the other side, Liunian Ling was also asking herself if she could defeat the Heavenly Sword if she was in Guhan's position.
But very quickly, Liunian Ling shook her head in shame. Unless she used the Billion Sword Technique or some other powerful swordsmanship, she might not be able to reach Guhan's current level with just swordsmanship. In other words, in terms of swordsmanship, Liunian Ling was inferior to Guhan.
This was very embarrassing. As the descendant of the dignified Liu Nian family, her swordsmanship was actually inferior to someone of the same age. This was very rare in history. After all, apart from a few people, the descendants of the Liu Nian family were all talented in swordsmanship. In addition, they had received the best swordsmanship education since they were young. In the past thousand years, the number of people who could surpass the Liu Nian family in swordsmanship could be counted on one hand. There were probably no more than 20 people … Eh, it seemed like the number of people couldn't be counted with two hands, let's count with two feet.
Just like that, both sides were evenly matched. From dozens of moves, to hundreds of moves … Then, Guhan gradually gained the upper hand.
For some unknown reason, Guhan did not overdraft his physical and mental power like the real Heavenly Sword. He just maintained a certain rhythm and slowly gained the upper hand.
"How could that be?
How did he gain the upper hand? "
Ashima furrowed her brows tightly. Although she didn't know any sword techniques, her understanding of sword techniques was very deep. She could already tell that Heavenly Reliance was at a disadvantage, and had switched from being evenly matched to being on the defensive.
But she couldn't understand why it was like this. Guhan clearly didn't make any changes.
"This is a change in power!"
Liunian Ling, on the other hand, seemed to understand something. After all, as the successor of the Liu Nian Family, she still had some discernment and knew much more than Ashima.
"Hey, what is a change in power?" Song Yifei moved closer to Liunian Ling and asked softly.
"The so-called power is a type of power that can only be used when a sword master's swordsmanship has reached a certain level …" Liunian Ling muttered, "Power isn't something that you have from the start. Instead, it is accumulated through various details in a competition of swordsmanship.
It's like two people building a house at the same time. One of them uses 100 bricks a day, while the other uses 101 bricks a day.
You might not be able to see any difference in a short period of time, but after a long period of time, the difference will become apparent. The latter's house will be taller and sturdier than the former!
"Of course, this analogy is also inappropriate.
The addition of a brick to a house could at least be seen, but the accumulation of Force was indeed invisible.
When you realize that the opponent's Momentum has already taken shape, you have already fallen into the opponent's Momentum. Unless you also have your own Momentum, or use a powerful skill to forcefully break through the opponent's Momentum, you will definitely lose this fight! "
Liunian Ling finished speaking, but there was one thing that Liunian Ling didn't say.
As the direct descendant of the Liu Nian Family, Liunian Ling had only touched the edge of her power. She was still a thin membrane away from truly possessing her own power.
However, Guhan had already mastered it. This was an irrefutable fact that told Liunian Ling that her swordsmanship was indeed inferior to Guhan's.
…
Liunian Ling's explanation made Song Yifei dizzy. However, Song Yifei understood that Guhan had already gained the upper hand. If Heavenly Reliance couldn't break through this so-called power, then it would definitely lose.
"Go!
Guhan, you can do it! "
Song Yifei suddenly shouted like a little fan of Guhan, breaking the silence in the arena and giving everyone a shock.
This idiot, what's the use of cheering?
Guhan cursed inwardly. However, he didn't know why the sword in his hand had become smoother. Even Guhan's own power had faintly become more vigorous.
This time, Heavenly Reliance became even more unbearable.
This Heavenly Reliance was only an intercept of the future Heavenly Reliance. It only had Heavenly Reliance's instincts, but it didn't have Heavenly Reliance's soul. Therefore, the swordsmanship seemed very stiff and didn't have any spirituality to speak of.
However, even with its own instincts, Heavenly Reliance felt like it was trapped in an invisible cage. Moreover, this cage was constantly shrinking. Finally, there would be a moment when it would be completely bound by this cage and fall into inevitable defeat.
Therefore, Heavenly Reliance decided to end this stage of purely competing swordsmanship and start using its own skills to determine the outcome. It wanted to forcefully break through this incomparably unbearable cage of power.
"Only Du Kang!"
Heavenly Reliance poured a mouthful of Du Kang wine into its mouth. The blade of the sword burned with alcohol. Then, it wanted to give up its defense and use this move on Guhan at the cost of injuring itself.
Heavenly Reliance's personal shield was 2.5 times that of Guhan's. If it could successfully change the shield's energy, no matter how it was calculated, Heavenly Reliance would make a huge profit.
Therefore, it went without saying that Guhan wouldn't let Heavenly Reliance do as it wished.
Since Heavenly Reliance had already used its skill, then Guhan could also use his "Nine Swords of Mysterious Heaven".
Facing Heavenly Reliance's sword that was going all out to kill him, Guhan's heart moved. He used the "Nine Swords of Mysterious Heaven" movement technique "Sword Curtain Formation". With a mysterious twist of his body, he miraculously dodged the sword that was almost certain to hit him. Then, he appeared at Heavenly Reliance's side.
"Nine Swords of Mysterious Heaven, Sword of the Abyss!"
Guhan, who had appeared at Heavenly Reliance's side, immediately used Sword of the Abyss. Five rays of sword qi burst forth from the blade of Heavenly Reliance like beautiful plum blossoms, colliding with Heavenly Reliance's body just like that.
When was a bullet's most powerful?
Naturally, it was when the bullet had just left the chamber. Similarly, the sword qi was naturally the most powerful when it had just emerged from the blade of the sword.
The distance between Guhan and Heavenly Reliance was simply too close, so when the sword qi rushed out, it directly hit Heavenly Reliance's body.
In an instant, Heavenly Reliance was pushed away by Guhan's powerful sword qi. With a stagger, it directly fell to the ground.
"F * ck!
This person can even use sword qi! "
Ashima cried out again. It wasn't strange for a Sword Maiden to use sword qi, nor was it strange for a Spirit Sword wielder to use sword qi. However, for a Treasure Sword wielder to be able to use sword qi, that was very surprising.
At the same time, Heavenly Reliance, who had fallen to the ground, struggled to get up. But how could Guhan let go of this opportunity? He used Sword Curtain Formation with all his might. Before Heavenly Reliance could get up, Guhan stepped on his shoulder. Then, Guhan gripped the hilt of the sword with both hands. Glaring, he poured all the sword qi in his body into Heavenly Reliance.
"Nine Swords of Mysterious Heaven, Sword Battling Heaven." Guhan used up most of the sword qi in his body to use the strongest killer move of the Nine Swords of Mysterious Heaven, Sword Battling Heaven.
There was no limit to the power of Sword Battling Heaven. Its power was completely dependent on how much sword qi Guhan had poured into the Sword Maiden's body.
At that moment, Guhan had poured half of the sword qi in his body into Heavenly Reliance. In other words, that was 1,300 quarks of sword qi. One could only imagine how powerful it was.
Heavenly Reliance, who had fallen to the ground, did not even have the time to fight back or dodge. Sword Battling Heaven struck its weakest point, its back. In less than half a second, Heavenly Reliance's thick, close-fitting shield was completely shattered. Guhan's Heavenly Reliance stabbed into Heavenly Reliance's body. Heavenly Reliance let out a miserable cry as its body turned into specks of starlight, disappearing without a trace.
"Phew!"
Guhan breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had won the battle, it had been a rather difficult one. Guhan had also revealed two of his trump cards: the sword force and the Nine Swords of Mysterious Heaven, which he had only managed to defeat Heavenly Reliance.
However, it was not completely without its benefits. At the very least, it was the first time Guhan had fought against an opponent whose swordsmanship was on par with his own. It was very beneficial to Guhan's swordsmanship. After the battle, Guhan had a vague idea of how he should continue to advance. It was a benefit that could not be obtained at any price.
On the other side, following Heavenly Reliance's death a month later, the mist formed by the Future Beckoning Sword suddenly began to spread violently. It felt like a patient coughing from a serious illness. The mist constantly dispersed and gathered. This continued for a while before it slowly calmed down. However, the color of the mist had become a lot brighter. Guhan could even vaguely see a graceful figure within the Future Beckoning Sword.
"Aiya, aiya, I can't believe I still lost. Mister Guhan's swordsmanship is even better than Heavenly Reliance, who is ranked third in the Famed Swordsmanship. This is really unexpected. No wonder Ling took a fancy to Mister Guhan at first glance. What a pity. If only Ashima was the first to meet Mister Guhan!" Ashima said in a daze, as if she really felt that it was a pity.
However, Guhan knew that she was purely giving up. She was the Saintess of Jerusalem, the female slave of Allah. She was a woman who could never marry any man in her life. If she really did that with him, the entire Jerusalem would probably kill him.
Guhan did not answer Ashima's words. Instead, he calmly asked, "How about it? You can admit defeat now, right?"
From Guhan's point of view, Ashima's Future Beckoning Sword had already used up all of its power. It was impossible for her to fight anymore … Even if she could fight again and summon the Heavenly Reliance from a month later, it would be useless. She would still be defeated by him.
"How can I admit defeat? Ashima still has the ability to do so!"
Ashima chuckled, as if she did not intend to admit defeat. She then said, "Since Mister Guhan is so powerful, Ashima will summon the Mister Guhan from a month later. Let's see who is more powerful between the two of you!"
"…" Guhan almost stumbled. This woman was quite powerful. He was afraid that Guhan would not be able to defeat her one month later!
