“Ding!”
“Ding!”
Inside the Heavenly Might Secret Realm, Ye Xingchen and the warrior’s weapons clashed madly, truly lightning and sparks all the way, stabbing Xiao Zuiji’s eyes until he could barely keep them open.
This twin-sword man’s strength wasn’t weak.
He could actually fight Night Junior Brother to a standstill.
“Two-Sword Style, Falling Rain!”
“Sweeping Away Thousands!”
“Two-Sword Style, Killing God Slash!”
“Sweeping Away Thousands!”
“Two-Sword Style…”
“Sweeping Away Thousands!”
“Two-Sword Style, Sweeping…”
Realizing he almost got led astray, the warrior quickly placed both swords horizontally before him and roared: “You only know one move?”
“Sweeping Away Thousands!”
“Whoosh!”
Ye Xingchen once again jumped with his ultimate move. Only the Sky-Piercing Halberd’s entire body flashed with special effects light, the descending power seeming capable of tearing through space.
“Ding!”
The warrior held his sword horizontally in front, the blade body suffering violent bombardment. He staggered back over ten zhang before steadying himself, both hands numb from the shock.
Ye Xingchen stood up from a half-crouching position, the Sky-Piercing Halberd still shrouded in special effects, his entire being rendered extremely imposing, saying: “Flashy but useless.”
Indeed.
No matter how gorgeous the moves, if they couldn’t cause damage, they could only be considered flowery fists and embroidered kicks.
Even casually poking with a finger, if strength reached its extreme, could destroy heaven and earth.
Ye Xingchen was this kind of person.
If he could instantly kill an opponent, he would definitely be straightforward.
Unlike Jun Changxiao, who shamelessly danced when executing specific martial techniques.
Bah.
“Fine.”
The warrior stood straight, both blade edges scraping against the ground, saying: “Your strength is not weak, I’m getting serious.”
“Whoosh whoosh!”
Instantly, red light shrouded his entire body, his eagle-sharp eyes gradually becoming blood-red, as if possessed by a demon from hell.
“He became stronger?”
Xiao Zuiji said in surprise.
“Tch.”
Although Ye Xingchen’s face showed disdain, his heart still raised its guard.
“Crack!”
At this time, the warrior crossed his twin swords horizontally before him in a cross pattern, his voice ice-cold: “Bankai, Eight-Armed Asura!”
“Buzz buzz buzz!”
Tai Yan and Tai Kui suddenly trembled, rapidly gushing out eerie energy to shroud their master.
“Whoosh whoosh!”
A fierce wind arose, extremely sinister.
Ye Xingchen’s brows slightly furrowed as he unconsciously retreated two steps.
“Ahh—”
From within the eerie energy came the warrior’s kind of output-depends-on-shouting roar, then he stepped out. His upper body armor had somehow fallen off, revealing robust muscles.
If Hall Master Zi were here, she would definitely be very disdainful, because only exploding clothes and not pants during battle completely lacked soul.
“…”
Ye Xingchen and Xiao Zuiji’s gazes grew grave.
They didn’t care about the exploded armor, didn’t care about the patterns outlined on his body. What they cared about was that seven blood-red arms had appeared out of thin air behind this person. Adding the two holding swords made exactly… wait, didn’t he just shout eight arms?
“I have already comprehended the supreme mystery, condensing a ninth arm. Are you surprised?” the warrior said proudly.
Xiao Zuiji roared: “We don’t even know who you are, what’s there to be surprised about!”
“I.”
“Started practicing martial arts at six.”
“Comprehended Two-Sword Style at eighteen.”
“At thirty-nine, fought through the world undefeated.”
“Bang!”
While the warrior was introducing his past glorious history, Ye Xingchen kicked him flying, saying: “Noisy.”
“Young man.”
The warrior floated down, throwing both swords into the air, grinning: “You are the first worthy opponent I have encountered in my life, so you are qualified to let me use…”
“Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz!”
The twin swords spun in the air, rapidly splitting into seven blades.
“Clap!”
“Clap!”
The warrior caught the naturally falling blades with his nine arms, then crisscrossed them horizontally before him, saying: “Ultimate Mystery, Nine-Sword Style!”
After the chuunibyou speech finished, the atmosphere immediately became awkward.
Because…
Xiao Zuiji pointed at the arms that had failed to catch the falling swords and gotten cut, saying: “Do you need bandaging?”
“Do you have bandages?”
“Yes.”
“Thank you.”
After the warrior simply bandaged several cut arms, his entire face quickly returned to seriousness, saying: “Today I will use my will to compete with you!”
“Nine-Sword Style, Eight-Armed Mantis!”
Stepping forward, the nine swords burst with special effects, gradually gathering into a huge mantis phantom behind him, its nine front limbs like nine huge blades.
“…”
Xiao Zuiji was speechless.
Clearly nine, but insisting on calling it eight, just like the Sect Master who couldn’t count.
The huge mantis waved its nine front limbs, terrifying aura instantly shrouding the secret realm, even the air permeated with sharp and murderous atmosphere.
The warrior had exploded with his comprehended ultimate mystery. Although it looked a bit chuunibyou, undeniably, his aura was very strong!
“I said!”
At this time, Ye Xingchen leaped into the air, both hands gripping the Sky-Piercing Halberd and pressing down hard, saying: “Flashy but useless!”
“Whoosh!”
“Whoosh!”
Powerful force roared, ruthlessly tearing through space.
“Night Junior Brother…” Xiao Zuiji said: “Got serious!”
That’s right.
Ye Xingchen got serious.
Because this strange warrior, whether fighting or executing moves, was always so flashy and long-winded, making him very irritable, so he must quickly resolve this. As for the twin swords, sorry, not interested at all.
“Whoosh!”
Ye Xingchen descending from above, shrouded in power, seemed to transform into a fierce tiger leaping down from a mountain peak, sharp claws and fangs ruthlessly tearing toward the posing Eight-Armed Mantis.
“Roar—”
Fierce tiger descending the mountain, unstoppable momentum.
The warrior’s gaze showed surprise as he blurted out: “Yamero!”
“Boom!”
Violent power boiled on the ground, forming visible ripples spreading in all directions, space shaking and rapidly distorting.
Xiao Zuiji quickly erected his Flowing Light Shield before him. Only hearing the aftershock madly impacting, producing ‘bang bang bang’ sounds, he couldn’t help thinking: “Night Junior Brother has become even stronger than before!”
Definitely.
He Wudi instantly killing the BOSS not only brought a blow to Night Emperor but also greatly stimulated his desire to become stronger, so during this period he was even stricter with himself, torturing himself even more. Although his realm hadn’t improved, his combat power had increased.
Men.
Should be ruthless!
The flood-like energy fluctuations gradually subsided.
Xiao Zuiji withdrew his Flowing Light Shield and quickly looked toward the battle zone. He saw Ye Xingchen standing proudly, his war halberd upright before him, like an undefeated war god.
As for the huge phantom mantis, it had completely vanished into nothingness. Even the warrior was half-kneeling, the two swords scattered randomly on the ground, their blade bodies dim and lightless, as if they had lost their souls.
“The victor is decided.” Xiao Zuiji said.
“Wah!”
The warrior spat out a mouthful of blood, then sat cross-legged with difficulty, his head slowly lowering, saying: “You… won…”
“Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Ye Xingchen waved his hand, and the two swords along with the sheaths on the opponent’s body all flew out and landed before Xiao Zuiji. The latter immediately understood and quickly collected them into his spatial ring.
The warrior raised his head and said: “I am Yagyu Jubei. If there’s a chance in the future, I hope to battle with you again.”
After speaking, he dispersed into smoke.
“Ding! Because the challenger failed to defeat Yagyu Jubei within the specified time, they will be forcibly teleported out.”
“Whoosh whoosh!”
Ye Xingchen and Xiao Zuiji vanished into thin air. When they came to their senses, they were already standing outside the Heavenly Might Secret Realm.
“How was it?”
Jun Changxiao, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly asked: “What did you gain?”
“Uh…” Xiao Zuiji took out the two swords and said: “We only obtained the twin swords of a strange warrior, called… Tai something.”
Jun Changxiao took them, saying in surprise: “Eastern swords?”
“Clang!”
Unsheathing the sword.
The system roared: “No way, weapons that disciples obtained in the secret realm, how can he as a Sect Master use them!”
