On the other side.
After Elder Qian waved his hand, a layer of energy restriction appeared, isolating all the foreigners outside.
This layer of energy restriction was transparent from the inside. Everyone could clearly see what was going on outside, but the people outside couldn't see what was going on inside at all.
"Don't worry about them. They'll leave in a while."
Elder Qian waved his hand and said to Wu Ming and Liu Zhiyi, "Get ready and start."
At this moment.
Apart from the three elders, the people from Sword Pavilion led by Qing Yun had already retreated far away, leaving enough space for Wu Ming and Liu Zhiyi to spar.
As Elder Qian's voice fell, the three elders also retreated at the same time.
In the field.
"Brother Wu Ming, please."
Liu Zhiyi faced Fang Qiu and cupped his fists.
"Please."
Fang Qiu cupped his fists and nodded.
Then, he grabbed the air with his right hand.
The Godly Sword instantly formed in his hand.
At this moment, an extremely powerful sword intent burst out from Fang Qiu's body.
As soon as this aura appeared, it immediately filled the entire space that was enveloped by the restriction. Everyone in the space could clearly feel this sword intent.
"What a powerful sword intent."
"It feels very prickly."
"No wonder he's the first person to be recognized by the Godly Sword in hundreds of years. He actually cultivated his sword intent to such a level. I'm afraid even Sword Addict can't compare to him."
"It's too powerful. I've practiced swordsmanship for so many years, but I've never felt such a powerful sword intent."
Because the onlookers were all disciples of the Sword Pavilion, each of them was very sensitive to the Sword Intent, so when Fang Qiu released the Sword Intent, they were completely shocked.
After all, Sword Pavilion was famous for its swordsmanship.
However.
Just when everyone was shocked by the sword intent that burst out from Fang Qiu's body, a strange sword intent suddenly appeared. It was like a gentle spring breeze, gently brushing past.
Although it felt very light and natural, the appearance of this sword intent actually forced the sword intent emanating from Fang Qiu's body to retreat.
This situation made everyone even more shocked.
This was because the source of this sword intent was Liu Zhiyi!
They saw.
Liu Zhiyi gently waved his right hand, and an ancient longsword suddenly shot up from behind him and fell into his hand.
He took a closer look.
This longsword was quite ancient, and it looked like it had been around for many years. The hilt of the sword had thick traces of time, but the entire body of the sword was cold and threatening.
Unlike ordinary swords, this one looked rather thick and sturdy. Its entire body was dark gold in color, giving people the impression that there were traces of blood on the blade. However, upon closer inspection, there were no blood stains.
"Good sword."
Fang Qiu exclaimed in admiration.
"Sword name: Qian Yi."
Liu Zhiyi replied, "Ever since I started martial arts, I have never dared to let it go."
"I can sense a very strong aura of nature from you."
Said Fang Qiu.
"Aren't you the same?"
Liu Zhiyi smiled and said, "It's not just you and me. Everyone is like this. Nature is the foundation and nature is respected."
Fang Qiu listened.
He couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
As expected of the orthodox Daoist Sect, they really understood the word 'Dao'.
Fang Qiu knew.
Since ancient times, Daoism had taken nature as its foundation. It followed the laws of heaven and earth and made all things natural. It used inaction to make things natural. It seemed to be doing nothing, but it was actually capable of anything.
To put it simply.
Daoism took nature as its foundation and people were respected.
Therefore, it could be said that every cultivator in this world was cultivating Daoism.
It was just that the natural aura of Daoism was stronger and purer.
"Let's fight."
Fang Qiu exclaimed in admiration and opened his mouth to shout.
The next moment.
Only to see.
The two opposite figures flew out at the same time and instantly collided with each other.
Both of their figures were very ethereal and agile.
The longswords in their hands were also constantly dancing in the air as they exchanged blows with each other.
The two collided.
The sound of the swords clashing shook the heaven and earth.
After a short close-range clash, Liu Zhiyi, who appeared calm, tapped the ground lightly with his toes and instantly retreated from the intense battle. At the same time, a thin layer of energy undulated under his feet, giving off a very special feeling.
"Eh?"
Fang Qiu was surprised.
He felt that Liu Zhiyi's fighting style was very strange. Although Liu Zhiyi's strength, speed, and moves were similar to his, there was actually a huge difference between the two.
This was because Liu Zhiyi was using space to fight.
Every step he took felt like he was using space as a flat ground. Not only could he easily borrow strength from the void, but he could also use the power of space to fight.
"Brother John Doe, be careful."
As he retreated, Liu Zhiyi smiled slightly. As he flipped his wrist, the long sword in his hand danced. It didn't seem to be very aggressive, but as his wrist moved, Fang Qiu could clearly feel that there was a very strange change in the heaven and earth.
It was as if the space was starting to compress. As the long sword in his hand fell, there was suddenly a very strong pressure in the space, pressing heavily on Fang Qiu.
At the same time.
A ray of Sword Qi shot out from the long sword in Liu Zhiyi's hand and shot toward Fang Qiu.
"Is this the use of Daoism's momentum?"
Fang Qiu was shocked.
Since ancient times, Daoism had combined technique, Dao, and momentum into one.
Technique was Daoism's warlock, and swordsmanship was also one of them. Liu Zhiyi cultivated swordsmanship, so there was no need to say much about Dao.
Daoism's momentum emphasized the insight into the flow of all things and the release of external forces.
This was the momentum of nature, the unbreakable momentum.
This was what Daoism meant by taking advantage of the situation.
The reason why it was unbreakable was because their goal was to not have a goal. Their destination was the release of external forces, the process of the strong force wearing down the final destination.
To understand Daoism's momentum, one needed to understand nature and use it.
It wasn't just about understanding, absorbing, and cultivating the Qi of nature. It was more about using one's sense of smell, touch, sight, hearing, and so on, as well as one's sixth and seventh sense, to feel the flow of all forces in the world, as well as their direction and destination. Then, one attack was released and moved with the flow.
Right now.
Liu Zhiyi made use of this point perfectly.
Almost as soon as the battle started, he began to trigger the flow of the Qi of Heaven and Earth, so that it formed a natural cycle in this space, and at the right time, he used the momentum to fight.
If there was momentum to be used, he would use it.
If there was no momentum to be used, he would create his own momentum!
With nature as the foundation, he respected himself.
"What a pity."
Feeling the huge pressure from the entire space, seeing that the Sword Qi from Liu Zhiyi's hand was about to fall, Fang Qiu shook his head and smiled bitterly. Then, he put the magic sword in his hand behind his back, clenched his left hand into a fist, and slapped down on the ground.
"Great Void Hand!"
His palm fell.
A layer of energy immediately spread out from Fang Qiu's palm in all directions, instantly covering an area of ten kilometers.
At this moment, all the Qi of Heaven and Earth within ten kilometers was under Fang Qiu's control.
The tremendous pressure that this space gave Fang Qiu also dissipated at this moment.
"Clang."
As the pressure disappeared, Fang Qiu waved his right hand.
The magic sword on his back, along with the wave of his arm, directly collided with the incoming Sword Qi. A dazzling golden sword light burst out from the magic sword in Fang Qiu's hand. Not only did it block Liu Zhiyi's attack, but it also directly cut and destroyed the Sword Qi, causing it to dissipate between heaven and earth.
"I've lost."
At the moment when the Sword Qi was broken and dissipated, Liu Zhiyi's indifferent voice was heard.
Hearing this.
Everyone at the scene was stunned.
They were watching excitedly. Why did Liu Zhiyi suddenly admit defeat?
In everyone's eyes, this battle had just begun. Both sides had only made one move. How could it end so hastily?
Hearing Liu Zhiyi admit defeat.
Fang Qiu laughed.
"I've long heard that Brother John Doe is very powerful. However, you seem to have encountered some bad things, causing some problems in your body. Your strength is only at the Earth Flower Exceptional Realm."
Liu Zhiyi looked at Fang Qiu and said with a smile, "I thought I could take advantage of this opportunity to win against you, but I didn't expect that I still underestimated your realm."
Everyone was dumbfounded. Even Qing Yun was a little confused.
Only the three old men looked at each other and smiled.
"Brother Zhiyi, you're being modest."
Fang Qiu hurriedly clasped his hands and said, "I'm just lucky. Besides, I used Taoist skills. It's not a victory."
Fang Qiu knew.
When Liu Zhiyi admitted defeat, he said that he lost because of his realm, which was a very helpless statement.
Because he was almost the same as Fang Qiu in terms of strength and speed. Moreover, his perception of the Qi of Heaven and Earth and the use of the natural momentum of heaven and earth were stronger than Fang Qiu.
He was just a little weaker than Fang Qiu in terms of realm. After all, he had only walked 20,000 miles.
Of course.
The most important thing was not the realm.
It was the skill that Fang Qiu used: the Great Void Hand!
This was a Taoist skill, a Taoist treasure left by Laozi. The foundation of this skill was the foundation of Taoism. It was based on nature and respected oneself.
Liu Zhiyi was creating momentum and borrowing momentum.
And the Great Void Hand that Fang Qiu used could not only create momentum and borrow momentum, but also break the momentum of others.
Within ten kilometers of the Great Void Hand, no one's momentum could affect Fang Qiu, unless the strength of the person who created and borrowed momentum was more than one realm higher than Fang Qiu.
Liu Zhiyi's perception and control of the nature of heaven and earth were very strong.
When Fang Qiu used the Great Void Hand, he knew that he had no chance.
So, he simply admitted defeat.
He could accept losing in the art of Daoism.
"I didn't expect that as an orthodox Taoist, I'm not as good as Brother John Doe in Taoist skills. I'm really ashamed."
Liu Zhiyi smiled bitterly and clasped his hands at Fang Qiu. "The result has been decided. Brother John Doe is better than me in all aspects. I'm willing to help you!"
"Actually, I'm just lucky," Fang Qiu replied.
Fang Qiu answered and said, "If I hadn't learned the orthodox Taoism skills by chance, I'm afraid it would have been difficult for me to take advantage of Brother Zhiyi today."
"However, we're all fighting for our country and our families."
"Thank you."
