Seeing Lu Xuan rushing towards him at an extremely fast speed, Zhu Ling was slightly surprised. This speed surprised him.
Previously, he did not pay attention to the battle on the stage, so he did not know much about Lu Xuan's strength. This was the first time he had come into contact with Lu Xuan.
"You do have some ability." Zhu Ling said quickly, but he did not dare to be slow. With a step, he increased his speed and executed a movement technique.
Seeing Zhu Ling's speed, Lu Xuan praised him in his heart. As expected of a core disciple of the Sky Saber Sect, his speed was not something an ordinary person could compare to.
At this moment, the unknown Movement Martial Skill that Zhu Ling was using made him look like he was drifting. It was a Movement Martial Skill that was similar to the Phantom Steps, making it impossible for others to see his movement trajectory clearly.
Even though Lu Xuan had pushed the Thunderbolt Flash to its limits, he was only about as fast as Zhu Lingxiang. At the end of the day, the Thunderbolt Flash was just a middle-grade Yellow Level movement technique. Even if Lu Xuan had practiced it to its limits, its level still meant that its speed was limited.
The two of them continued to chase each other, but they could not close the distance. Zhu Ling kept himself within a safe distance.
Lu Xuan was gradually shocked. Ever since he obtained the Rushing Thunder Flash, this was the first time he met someone who could match his speed. In the past, when he used the Rushing Thunder Flash together with the Blinking Sword Technique, it was almost always successful. However, this time, he was not able to do anything.
At this moment, Lu Xuan made up his mind and quickly circulated the Taiyi Origin Art. His spirit force was pushed to the maximum and his speed increased by two times. He continued to chase after Zhu Ling.
Zhu Ling did not expect that under such circumstances, Lu Xuan's speed could still increase. Zhu Ling was even more shocked. Lu Xuan's speed was actually so fast that it was out of his expectations. Even though he still had the advantage, in reality, this was also his limit. In other words, even if he chased after Lu Xuan now, he would not be able to do anything to Lu Xuan.
Seeing this, Zhu Ling did not dare to relax. He was the third ranked core disciple of the Sky Saber Sect. If he was caught by a mere inner sect disciple, he would lose a lot of face.
The reason why he dared to say that he wouldn't make a move within three moves was because he thought that his speed was faster than Lu Xuan's. Now, it seemed that his plan had failed. Fortunately, the worst-case scenario didn't happen. At the very least, Lu Xuan wouldn't be able to catch up to him.
The silhouettes of both of them kept flashing on the arena. Lu Xuan's Thunderbolt Flash flashed continuously as if he was teleporting, while Zhu Ling's Phantom Steps left behind a series of confusing afterimages on the arena, making it difficult for her opponents to grasp her movements. The battle had only just begun, but they had already gone all out.
The disciples below the ring had long since held their breaths in rapt attention as they stared fixedly at the two figures on the ring, not daring to relax for fear of missing the most exciting part.
"Just a little bit more, just a little bit more. Lu Xuan, hurry up!" Chen Xiaohan was so anxious that she stomped her feet and kept urging him. It was as if she couldn't personally go up and replace Lu Xuan.
"To be able to force Zhu Ling to this point, Lu Xuan should be proud of himself. However, I'm afraid this is his limit." The Ninth Uncle's eyes were sharp and he could see through Lu Xuan's state with one look.
Hearing this, Xia Ye and the others couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If Lu Xuan's strength could reach the ninth layer of the Body Refinement Realm, he would be able to instantly make up for this gap. Unfortunately, he didn't manage to break through.
On the other side, Elder Gong's expression didn't look good either. He originally wanted Zhu Ling to instantly injure Lu Xuan and redeem the Sky Saber Sect's face. He didn't expect the battle to be so intense. Both sides were evenly matched in terms of speed.
After all, the longer the battle between the two lasted, the more face the Sky Saber Sect would lose. Zhu Ling was a core disciple, and he was ranked third among the core disciples. It was really embarrassing to fight with an inner sect disciple like this.
Even if Zhu Ling defeated Lu Xuan in the end, others would only praise Lu Xuan for being able to fight with a core disciple for so long. They wouldn't praise Zhu Ling's strength.
Elder Gong no longer hesitated and directly sent a message to Zhu Ling, "Stop playing around. Quickly defeat this Lu Xuan!"
Hearing this, Zhu Ling cried out in his heart. He didn't expect Lu Xuan's speed to be so shocking. However, the longer Lu Xuan chased him, the more furious he became. If this continued, he would really lose all his face.
"Are you going to fight or not? If this goes on, don't blame me for not keeping my promise of three moves!" Zhu Ling said angrily.
When Zhu Ling said this, his spirit force slightly collapsed. When experts exchanged moves, it was usually in the time it takes for a spark to fly off a flint. This instant change was immediately grasped by Lu Xuan. Without any hesitation, Lu Xuan pushed his spirit force to the extreme. His speed suddenly increased and the Star Shattering Sword in his hand suddenly stabbed forward. In the blink of an eye, he sent out several slashes, all aimed at Zhu Ling!
The series of afterimages created by Zhu Ling's Phantom Steps were instantly broken by Lu Xuan. The last slash, which was the Star Shattering Sword itself, seemed to break through the obstruction of space and suddenly arrived in front of Zhu Ling.
At this moment, Zhu Ling's pupils abruptly constricted and all the hairs on her body stood on end. The strength of the tenth level of Body Refinement Realm exploded forth without the slightest bit of restraint. In a flash, her body forcefully moved three feet to the side!
Lu Xuan's sword stabbed into Zhu Ling's body. However, it was only an afterimage. This sure-kill slash was narrowly dodged by Zhu Ling.
Although he successfully dodged this slash, Zhu Ling's back was already drenched in cold sweat. If his speed was just a little bit slower and his reaction was just a little bit slower, he would have really been hit by Lu Xuan.
Zhu Ling, who had regained his senses, was instantly incomparably furious. He was the dignified Sky Saber Sect's third ranked core disciple, yet he was almost defeated by a mere inner sect disciple. If he really failed miserably, how would he have the face to go back and see others? What's more, there were a few other core disciples sitting below the stage.
This brat's strength is a little strange. It's better not to play with him. Zhu Ling thought in his heart.
At the same time, Lu Xuan also felt some regret in his heart. He was so close, it was really too much of a pity. However, this was the limit that he wanted. If he didn't reach the limit, how would he break through?
Lu Xuan's wrist shook and the sword light circulated. His spirit force once again circulated and he actually used his movement technique to chase after Zhu Ling.
"Again! Do you really think I can't do anything to you?! " Zhu Ling shouted angrily, but his movements weren't slow. He quickly dodged again. In terms of speed, he didn't dare to underestimate Lu Xuan.
"Why, Senior Zhu, are you going to go back on your words? The promise of three moves has only passed by one move. "Lu Xuan smiled as he continued to chase after Zhu Ling.
Damn it, why did I set the promise of three moves!
Zhu Ling was extremely annoyed. Since it was a promise that he made, how could he break it now? Although he was extremely unwilling, he didn't want to break it.
Fine, I'll let you have three moves. I can dodge the first move, but I'll be prepared for the second and third moves. What can you do to me? Zhu Ling secretly swore in his heart. After the promise of three moves, he would definitely teach Lu Xuan a lesson. How dare you ride roughshod over me. If I don't teach you a lesson, my surname isn't Zhu!
Although he used the promise of three moves to force Zhu Ling to temporarily not retaliate, Lu Xuan was still a little anxious. Could it be that he really couldn't catch up to Zhu Ling with his speed? Was the difference of two minor realms really that huge?
Although Lu Xuan thought that way, he didn't stop moving. Whether he could succeed or not, he would only know after trying.
Just when Lu Xuan felt that his speed had reached the limit, an inexplicable force suddenly appeared slowly from his body!
That was the power of his bloodline! The power of his bloodline after fusing with the Azure Dragon blood essence!
Ever since he successfully fused with the Azure Dragon blood essence, other than feeling that his body had become stronger and his recovery ability had become stronger, Lu Xuan didn't feel anything else. He even thought that this was the benefit of the Azure Dragon blood essence.
Only now did he realize that the power of his bloodline had never been fully developed.
Because from fusing with the bloodline until now, he had never been forced to the limit, so he naturally didn't notice it. But now that his speed had reached the limit, the strong desire in his heart to increase his speed once again, the power of his bloodline was actually automatically activated.
With the sudden eruption of the power of his bloodline, Lu Xuan felt that it became even easier to circulate Rushing Thunder Flash. That feeling of reaching the limit earlier had already completely disappeared. It was as if a bottle that was originally filled with water was suddenly changed to a larger bottle. On top of the current amount of water, even more water could be poured in.
Immediately, how could Lu Xuan still hesitate? Essence energy and power of his bloodline activated at the same time!
His speed that had already reached the limit soared once again!
At this moment, Zhu Ling was holding tightly onto a mouthful of Origin Energy, trying his best to widen the distance between him and Lu Xuan. He secretly cursed in his heart, but at this moment, he suddenly saw Lu Xuan's speed suddenly increase explosively. The originally balanced distance between them was quickly pulled closer!
Seeing this scene, Zhu Ling turned pale with fright. Did this brat take some medicine? This speed could still be increased, it was simply unbelievable!
But at this moment, he didn't have that much time to think. After the sudden increase in speed, Lu Xuan's speed was already above Zhu Ling's. Together with his sword, he attacked Zhu Ling like a whirlwind.
The Blink Sword Style was used again, and almost instantly, it stabbed at Zhu Ling's chest.
At the moment of imminent peril, Zhu Ling let out a loud roar and unleashed all the potential in his body, narrowly dodging this sword strike again and again. If he had been just a little bit slower, he would have been struck by this sword strike. It was a true difference of a few millimeters.
"Senior Brother Zhu, this is the second move. There is still one last move, don't make a move!" Lu Xuan said to Zhu Ling with a smile. After the increase in speed, he already had absolute confidence that he could beat Zhu Ling in speed. He wanted to see if Zhu Ling dared to not make a move against his last move.
