It was this sense of vigilance that had risen in his heart countless times that spurred him to not let go of any room for improvement in his cultivation, to move forward with all his might!
He tried his best to obtain resources, to cultivate his martial arts skills, to practice his saber skills …
Perhaps, it was this constant vigilance that stemmed from this thought that made him use all means to conceal his existence. Along the way, he had used his intelligence to deal with the enemies he encountered to the greatest extent.
It was to the extent that he barely had a few direct confrontations with his enemies after such a long period of time.
He had kept a low profile for so long. Now that the divine weapon was unsheathed, the world would tremble in fear!
This was not him speaking incoherently after achieving his goal; it was a display of his self-worth and absolute confidence!
"A lifetime of resourcefulness, the mountains fall; he buried himself in refining his divine weapon; he did not speak of the secular world for three years; the unsheathing of his treasured saber shocks heaven and earth!"
Many years later, Supreme Cloud's story spread throughout the world. His experience of hiding his edge during these years was spread to Tianxuan along with novels. Wu Ying, who was then the Minister of War and the Grand Commandant of the Board of War, broke his habit of remaining silent for many years and composed a poem while he was drunk. Both of them stood side by side, leaving their names in the annals of history, lasting for generations to come.
…
Beside him was Ji Lingxi, but her expression was more relaxed than Yun Yang's.
The Four Seasons Tower that had initially weighed on both of their hearts and regarded them as formidable foes was now nothing to be worried about.
After the battle just now, their confidence in themselves had skyrocketed to a shocking level.
"Oh, Tianxuan Cliff!" Yun Yang sighed softly. "My brothers are all here. Watching me kill the Four Seasons Tower's men one by one, I can totally feel how happy and comforted they are right now. "
Ji Lingxi smiled and said, "Didn't you say that a few of them are still alive? It's not good if they're all here watching us feel happy and comforted. At least, I don't want big brother's spirit to be here. I don't want to miss the day when I can reunite with him! "
Yun Yang sighed softly. "You've misinterpreted my thoughts. Perhaps we're in different parts of the world now, walking different paths, but have our hearts ever been separated? The emotions I'm feeling now are only from the fact that I haven't seen them appear before me alive."
A voice interrupted abruptly, "I didn't expect Lord Supreme Cloud to be such a sentimental person. It's a pity that the battlefield is fraught with danger and survival is a matter of life and death … However, if Supreme Cloud really wishes to see them again, it's not a difficult task. As long as this humble one sends Lord Supreme Cloud on a journey, you'll be able to see them right away. There's no need to spend a long time reminiscing about them …"
Yun Yang turned around abruptly and raised his hand. A ray of saber light lashed out like a bolt of lightning.
There was a loud "dang" sound, followed by a shockwave. A long laugh rang out, and the person who spoke quickly retreated.
He saw a cold light fly over from another direction.
Yun Yang blocked it with his saber. With a loud clang, the Divine Edge buzzed and an oddly-shaped concealed weapon, about half a foot long, fell to the ground.
Not only was the concealed weapon unique in shape, the force attached to it was not weak either. Even with Yun Yang's current cultivation base, he was still shaken by the impact. Furthermore, this concealed weapon was only the beginning, or rather, the prelude to a secret weapon baptism.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …
For a moment, all sorts of strange concealed weapons flew in from all directions. The ones who launched the concealed weapons were extremely careful, leaving as soon as they made contact and never staying where they were. Each attack was heavy and forceful, as if they had given it their all. Furthermore, the concealed weapons used by these people were all extremely heavy, none of them less than a catty.
Such heavy concealed weapons were infused with the mystical skill of pinnacle martial artists of this world. The force was simply earth-shattering!
Along with this wave of heavy concealed weapons, there were also people who were looking for an opening to attack from the front. The weapons these people used were also different from others. Other than thick iron rods and thick podaos, there were also relatively bulky iron maces and the like. There was even one person who was wielding an incomparably large iron chisel. Most of the weapons used by this wave of attackers were not divine weapons, nor were they weapons that they were proficient in. However, they had one advantage: thick! Heavy! Hard!
This prerequisite ensured that they were sturdy enough to take a beating.
Wielding such heavy weapons in addition to the support of mystical Qi, even Yun Yang's Divine Edge would not be able to cut or destroy them so easily.
And this kind of attack, every moment, every moment, continued, did not stop for a moment, did not stop, did not stop for a moment, did not stop, did not stop at all!
The attacks were endless. There were at least one or even several attacks in a split second, but the Four Seasons Tower's experts did not actually show themselves. They maintained the core tactic of leaving after a single strike and retreating immediately. Whether it was effective or not, all the attacks were launched without warning. In addition, the attacks were only directed at Yun Yang, not harming Ji Lingxi at all!
The clanging sounds were like metal being hammered, ringing incessantly.
Yun Yang was focused on dealing with the attacks, unable to care about anything else.
He had thought that the Four Seasons Tower's attacks would only last for a while. After all, it was impossible for them to kill him. However, he did not expect the other party to carry on without a break!
There seemed to be no stopping at all.
Such a stalemate lasted for a whole day before the attacks slowed down slightly, but they were still coming.
Yun Yang's heart was as clear as a mirror.
So this was the Four Seasons Tower's plan.
…
"The other party has attacked you no less than ten thousand times throughout the day. It should be at least this number!"
Ji Lingxi looked at Yun Yang with worry in her eyes. "It looks like they plan to exhaust you to death!"
Yun Yang's face was flushed, a rare sight. His breathing was labored as well. Even though his cultivation base was unparalleled and he had Emmie's help, he still felt exhausted after withstanding the attacks for an entire day. It was difficult for him to cope with the attacks that had been going on non-stop.
"The Four Seasons Tower's reputation isn't just built on their overwhelming combat power. It's predictable that they would use targeted attacks when their strategy is not going their way. I think … they might not be limited to such tactics. After all, the cycle of such tactics is too long. I think their ultimate goal is to exhaust my mystical Qi as much as possible, and they'll probably have other tactics after that."
Yun Yang panted and said, "I'll be tired if I keep fighting like this, but they won't have it easy either. They might be even more tired than I am."
