The slap in the face was just the beginning.
In fact, the fist that landed on Zhu Shiyao's nose was more symbolic than practical.
Zhu Shiyao was different from Liu Li. She wasn't the type of person who only focused on offense without defense. When her stellar sword qi protected her body, her skin was like inlaid with countless fine diamonds, which was incomparably hard.
Wang Lu's heavy punch had already used his True Power, yet it still couldn't cause any real harm. Zhu Shiyao only felt a buzzing sound in her head and a nosebleed gushed out, but it was no big deal … Fortunately, when the opponent's heavy punch was about to hit her, she managed to see the perfect way to dodge.
However, an ominous premonition still lingered in her heart. She was very clear that the fight was not over, and her situation was very delicate.
From the other end of the sea of black fog, she had been fighting against the opponent's Natal Magic in her peak state. The Stardust Sword Qi and the attack that broke the giant sword were all exerted by taking advantage of the momentum. She had relied on the spirit of the long-distance attack to achieve success in one fell swoop, and not entirely built on the Starry Divine Eyes.
However, in the end, she was still blocked, not by the opponent's immortal sword, but by an inconceivably strong defense and vitality. Although she was somewhat embarrassed and somewhat reluctant, she still couldn't win even after using all her strength, which meant that the opponent's strength was beyond the scope of what she could deal with. After that sword strike, her sword momentum was exhausted, and if she continued to fight, she would lose without a doubt.
Fortunately, she at least had the ability to protect herself. If she went all out in defense, she was confident that she could escape unscathed. However, the strange feeling in her heart was still there, as if something bad might happen at any time.
"I've finally caught you. Come out!"
Along with the man's roar, Zhu Shiyao finally found the source of that strange feeling in her heart.
Yes, yes! I've made a mistake in a very important thing. The key to this fight was not to behead the demonized follower who was seduced by the Sword Demon, but to behead the Sword Demon to help the Sword God merge into one, becoming the complete Sword Saint of Bai Li.
Similarly, the opponent's target was not her, but … the Sword God that was attached to her body!
Sure enough, when the punch, which was not particularly powerful, landed on her face again, Zhu Shiyao could clearly feel a strange power invading her body. In the next moment, the Sword God let out an angry roar after being stimulated by this power. "How dare you!"
At the same time, Sword God rushed out from Zhu Shiyao's body and pointed her Heaven Splitting Sword Qi at Wang Lu. Its sharpness was not inferior to Zhu Shiyao's Great Sun Golden Brilliant Sword. What was even rarer was that the sword momentum was strange, making it impossible to guard against.
As the Sword God of Bai Li, even though he had just been resurrected and his power was still extremely weak, his control of subtle power was still not something a newbie in the cultivation world could compare with. This sword strike might not have been as powerful as Zhu Shiyao's magical power of absolute victory, but it was still not something that Wang Lu could easily block. What's more, Wang Lu's chest had been pierced through. Although he was still alive, he couldn't use his full strength.
But if Sword God made a move, would Sword Devil watch with folded arms?
"Hmph, I've waited for a long time, and you're finally willing to show yourself!"
As Sword Devil's figure appeared next to Wang Lu, Sword God smiled, "I've troubled you to wait for a long time, but unfortunately, I'm not willing to accompany you!"
After that, Sword God whistled, and his whole body flashed. The next moment, he and Zhu Shiyao disappeared without a trace, and even the Great Sun Golden Brilliant Sword that was inserted in Wang Lu's chest also disappeared.
"He actually escaped …"
Sword Devil looked solemn and said in a deep voice, "To be able to use his own spiritual power to break the shackles of your natural magical power and directly teleport away … he really deserves to inherit Zhong Shengming's orthodoxy. His power is above me. If it weren't for the Yin-Yang Sword Division Formation, I'm afraid I would have been killed by him at this time."
After that, Sword Devil paused and said, "It's a pity that you didn't have the last laugh after all your hard work."
Wang Lu didn't care about this, "The other party used a flash to barely save his life, so there's not much to be dissatisfied about. That kind of desperate escape spell can't be used indefinitely. And if we can win the first time, we can win a hundred times. In this unique environment, my advantage will only snowball and they won't have a chance. "
"Well, your fighting spirit hasn't diminished, that's good … How's your injury?"
"Hehe, thank you for your concern. Although I lost a lot of blood, I can still recover."
"Well, that's good. Pay attention to recuperate. There's no need to rush. They won't immediately make a comeback after a sudden defeat. We still have time."
The two of them asked and answered, showing a touch of concern in their indifferent tone. However, there was something unclear in their tone, making the dialogue seem strange.
—
At the same time, on the other side of the black fog sea, with a flash of chaotic light, Sword God and Zhu Shiyao appeared.
Sword God looked a little tired. Just now, he used his own spell to break the life source magical power, which consumed a lot of energy. If he was at his peak, the life source magical power of one hundred Wang Lu would also be smashed, but now he was far from the power of his peak.
As for Zhu Shiyao, her face was still indifferent, neither happy nor sad, as if the defeat just now had never happened.
At this time, holding the Great Sun Golden Brilliant Sword, her eyes were facing the sword light, and her mind was completely immersed in it. After a moment, the corners of her mouth slightly raised into a smile.
Seeing this, Sword God couldn't help but sigh. What a sword maniac. She could immerse herself in swordsmanship at any time, but now was not the time.
"Sword Devil's means are unexpected. I didn't expect him to find such a powerful follower. Hehe, in just a dozen hours, his cultivation has skyrocketed ten times. Unless it's the legendary Void Spirit Root, he must have used some demonic method that can shorten his lifespan. I'm afraid that follower won't live long … But before that, I'm afraid our days won't be good. "
"…"
Seeing that Zhu Shiyao didn't respond at all, Sword God frowned and shouted, "Now is not the time to be leisurely!"
Zhu Shiyao's thoughts were interrupted, and she shook her head blankly, and then said, "It doesn't matter."
"It doesn't matter!? Do you think after the last battle, the opponent will still wait for us to take the initiative to attack? When that follower recovers, they will definitely take the initiative to attack! "
"It doesn't matter." After Zhu Shiyao finished speaking, she seemed to know that the weight of this sentence was not enough, so she hesitated and added, "Next time, I won't lose."
Won't lose next time? Sword God shook his head.
Yes, Zhu Shiyao's growth speed was very fast, but the opponent was not slow either. The defeat just now seemed to be a slight difference, but with his vision, how could he not see that the slight difference was like a natural chasm. The opponent crushed him with absolute strength, and there was no solution at all.
However, this situation was advantageous, because the next step …
While thinking, he heard Zhu Shiyao said happily, "I, found a way to repair my glasses."
"What!?"
Zhu Shiyao said, "Just now, the demon's supernatural power gave me inspiration. I can, like him, use spiritual power to condense a magic treasure, and temporarily replace the original."
"…"
Sword God looked stunned, as if he couldn't believe this idea.
Zhu Shiyao didn't explain much, she was bad with words, not to mention that some things to show people were more powerful than any words.
So while recalling the inspiration that flashed in her mind, she began to mobilize her spiritual power, condensing a crystal on her fingertip.
To condense the mysterious spiritual power into a solid, this required a very brilliant use of spiritual power. Zhu Shiyao tried it for the first time, and felt that it was extremely difficult. After a while, sweat appeared on her forehead, but the small lens on her fingertip was also constantly being melted, showing an appearance that was getting closer and closer to the original.
After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Zhu Shiyao let out a long breath, "It's done."
Saying that, with a smile on her face, she fiddled with the lens on her fingertip, and then gently put it on her left eye.
This lens was not easy to refine, but for Zhu Shiyao, one lens was enough.
Most of the illusion in front of her was filtered by the lens. Feeling the familiar field of vision, Zhu Shiyao's smile didn't change, and an inexplicable aura gradually rose from her body.
"Now, I will never lose."
Although without the lens, Zhu Shiyao still retained a strong fighting power, but after wearing the lens, she was like a different person, and her aura was much stronger than before!
"Mm, congratulations."
Behind her, Sword God's voice seemed somewhat indifferent, but Zhu Shiyao didn't notice it. Her keenness was more reflected in the fight. In addition, her sluggishness was comparable to Liu Li.
Because of her sluggishness, Zhu Shiyao spoke without any scruples, and in her excitement, she casually said, "This time, I can know who the follower of the demon is! Previously, I always felt that he looked familiar, but I couldn't see him clearly. "
"Oh? You can see him clearly by wearing the glasses? "
The voice of Sword God sounded from behind her.
Zhu Shiyao nodded. "It's definitely possible. This exchange has confirmed my suspicions. I've probably met that person before. I'm too familiar with his core cultivation technique. If possible, I should advise him to repent, not to be the accomplice of the demon, and not to kill each other. Previously, I didn't show any mercy with my sword … If Master is here, he would probably blame me. So, should I apologize? "
She didn't know how long these words had been lingering in her heart, but when she said them, she didn't stumble at all.
In this regard, Sword God suddenly sighed.
"It's really a pity. Your talent is strong, and your dedication to the way of the sword is something that I've never seen in my life. If possible, I really want to accept you as my successor. You have the stellar divine eyes, which can see through the future, so you can certainly achieve higher achievements than me. But, why do you want to bring about your own destruction?"
"Huh?"
Upon hearing this, no matter how slow Zhu Shiyao was, she still felt that something was wrong. When she turned around, she didn't see the figure of Sword God.
There was only a mass of red mist that blotted out the sky.
—
At the same time, on the other side of the sea of black mist, Wang Lu, who was in the middle of healing, had nothing to do, so he asked Sword Demon a question.
"You said that you and Sword God are the millions of remnant souls of Zhong Shengming in the past. Although now you've grown stronger, you're still remnant souls, which means, you don't have a body?"
