Dark red blood soaked Lan Duo's clothes. Although the injuries on his shoulder and left arm were not serious, to Lan Duo, the anger brought about by the injuries was far greater than the injuries he had suffered!
Lan Duo was truly enraged this time. He already felt that he had lost face when he failed to kill Lu Xuan with a single strike. He deliberately used his signature martial arts technique for the second time and even used 70% of his strength. He did not expect that not only would he fail to kill Lu Xuan, but he would also be injured!
This was undoubtedly a slap to his face. One had to know that Lu Xuan was only at the fourth level of the Spirit Refinement Realm!
Lu Xuan's first two attacks were just enough to nullify his Bloody Cross Slash, and the last move, Phoenix Feather, was simply too fast. Lan Duo was caught off guard and was unable to block it in time, which was why Lu Xuan managed to stab him twice.
"Good! Very good! " Lan Duo was so angry that he laughed. Only his angry voice could be heard, "No matter where you come from, you must die today!"
Hearing this, Lu Xuan couldn't help but shake his head and smile, "You say it as if you didn't intend to kill me. If you have the ability, then come at me."
Lan Duo didn't speak anymore. He sank his qi into his dantian and with a low roar, his aura surged again. The surrounding martial artists couldn't help but have a slight change in expression. Did this guy not use his full strength just now?
Indeed, from the beginning until now, Lan Duo had not used all of his strength. People would always underestimate their enemies. Facing a warrior in the fourth layer of the Spirit Refinement Realm, Lan Duo could not use his full strength. It would be too tiring for him to go all out no matter who he faced.
But now, not only did Lu Xuan block two of his attacks, he even left two marks on his body. Lan Duo was no longer suppressing his strength. He wanted to use his strongest strength to beat this guy in front of him!
Lu Xuan's expression gradually turned serious. In his perception, Lan Duo's danger level had increased dramatically. The strength that Lan Duo displayed previously was only at the eighth level of the Spirit Refinement Realm. But now, the strength that he displayed was the true strength of the ninth level of the Spirit Refinement Realm!
Taking another step forward from the ninth level of the Spirit Refinement Realm would be the tenth level of the peak of the Spirit Refinement Realm, which was only one step away from the Origin Realm.
"Your defense is indeed powerful, but I want to see if you can still withstand my attacks!" Lan Duo said proudly. As a martial artist at the Ninth Tier of the Spirit Refinement Realm, his full strength was terrifying. He had the right to be arrogant!
"Make your move." Lu Xuan said while staring at Lan Duo.
"Blood Cross Slash!" Lan Duo shouted and used the same move again. It was this move that was broken by Lu Xuan and caused him to be injured. Now, he wanted to use this move again to defeat Lu Xuan!
A horizontal and a vertical blade slashed out at almost the same time. Compared to the previous time, the attack this time was even faster and more ferocious. The two blood-red blade Qi stacked together and formed a perfect "cross" shape, causing one to feel a blood-thirsty aura pouncing towards them. Endless Yuan Power continuously churned, as if it wanted to tear them into pieces.
Not to mention Lu Xuan who was facing the attack, even the surrounding martial artists couldn't help but feel their hearts palpitate. The full strength of a martial artist at the Ninth Tier of the Spirit Refinement Realm was indeed extraordinary. It was the same martial technique, but the power was far more powerful than the previous one.
This time, Lu Xuan finally felt a strong pressure. He knew that Lan Duo wasn't lying. He didn't use his full strength previously, but it was impossible to defeat him like this!
"Dragon and Phoenix Dance!" Lu Xuan shouted. The power of the Ice Phoenix Bloodline and the Azure Dragon Bloodline were mobilized at the same time. The Ice Phoenix shadow behind him became more and more solid. Next to the Ice Phoenix shadow, an Azure Dragon shadow appeared. Moreover, the Azure Dragon shadow was far more solid than the Ice Phoenix shadow. After all, Lu Xuan's Azure Dragon Bloodline was stronger than the Ice Phoenix Bloodline.
As the dragon and phoenix merged, Lu Xuan's whole body rose from the ground. The martial artists couldn't catch Lu Xuan's movements at all. In just a moment, Lu Xuan had already rushed into the sky.
Just when everyone thought that Lu Xuan was going to dodge the attack, Lu Xuan's figure suddenly stopped. The Profound Ice Phoenix's Blood Sword trembled, and he switched from holding it with one hand to holding it with both hands. With a low roar, he slashed down with all his strength!
This move, Dragon and Phoenix Dance, relied on the power of the Dragon and Phoenix Bloodline. Its power was already extremely strong, and now with the falling force, its power increased by 30%. Without the slightest intention of dodging, Lu Xuan directly slashed at Lan Duo.
"Hmph, insignificant skill." Lan Duo coldly snorted. With a wave of his blood-red long blade, the Bloody Cross Slash strangely changed its trajectory and directly attacked Lu Xuan who was falling from the sky. In this way, if Lu Xuan wanted to attack Lan Duo, he must first break this Bloody Cross Slash.
Everyone held their breaths in concentration as their attacks were about to collide, and they didn't even blink as they were deeply afraid of missing out on such an exciting scene. Would Lu Xuan be able to withstand this attack?
"Boom!"
In the blink of an eye, Lu Xuan's sword slashed against the Bloody Cross Slash. Even with the protection of the Earth and Water Divine Runes, Lu Xuan still couldn't ignore such a powerful collision.
The tremendous force transmitted over and Lu Xuan felt a sweetness in his throat before a gush of blood gushed up. Evidently, the power of the two Divine Runes wasn't enough to completely neutralize this attack, but it still gave Lu Xuan quite a bit of help. Otherwise, it wouldn't be as simple as blood gushing up his throat. Most likely, he would be blown away like Elder He.
In the end, Dragon and Phoenix Dance failed to completely break Lan Duo's Bloody Cross Slash. Not only did Lu Xuan suffer from the recoil, but the remaining power of the Bloody Cross Slash continued to coil around Lu Xuan, as if it was determined to kill Lu Xuan.
Without a doubt, if Lu Xuan was really hit by this attack, his whole body would be directly cut into four pieces!
A cruel smile appeared on Lan Duo's face. Since Lu Xuan dared to make him lose face in front of so many people, then he should pay the price with his life! The dignity of a Ninth Stage Spirit Refinement cultivator couldn't be trampled on. Thinking of this, Lan Duo once again let out a low roar. Yuan Power gushed out and continued to pour power into the Bloody Cross Slash. This was the strength of the Bloody Cross Slash. Even if the attack had left his body, it could still be controlled by Lan Duo.
But at this critical moment, Lu Xuan roared once again. His body that was soaring in the air suddenly turned around and swept out with the Profound Ice Phoenix Blood Sword!
Divine Dragon Tail Whip!
An irresistible force gushed out from the Profound Ice Phoenix Blood Sword and met the remaining power of the Bloody Cross Slash without any reservation.
A roar that was more violent than before sounded. Lu Xuan's body flew out and the Bloody Cross Slash was completely shattered by this move!
Lu Xuan, who was in the air, quickly used the Wind Riding Art to stabilize his body. Only then did he float to the ground, but there was still some blood in his chest. After suffering from the shock, he had already suffered minor injuries, and the forceful use of the Divine Dragon Tail Whip worsened his injuries. Fortunately, these injuries were not serious. With the protection of the IX Divine Rune, Lu Xuan could quickly recover. This was the strength of the Body Refining School. In a battle of consumption, Lu Xuan was not afraid at all.
"He actually didn't die?" Lan Duo was a little surprised. Although he finally gained the upper hand in this move, compared to his expectations, there was still a huge gap. He thought that this time, he could kill Lu Xuan without any resistance.
"Lu Xuan, are you alright?" Instructor Yang rushed over to support Lu Xuan and asked with concern.
Lu Xuan calmed his internal breath and showed a trace of a smile, "I'm fine, a warrior at the Ninth Level of Spirit Refinement is only so-so."
"Good job, Lu Xuan, this is a full blow from a warrior at the Ninth Level of Spirit Refinement. Not only did you not die, but you also suffered minor injuries. You are stronger than me!" Zhang Sanyu seemed a little excited. Lu Xuan's strength had greatly surprised him.
Lu Xuan smiled and didn't bother to explain. The main reason why he only suffered light injuries was because of the two great Divine Inscriptions. Without the two great Divine Inscriptions, his strength was still inferior to Zhang Sanyu and Instructor Yang.
"Lu Xuan, you've shown enough strength. They have three cultivators at the ninth tier of the Spirit Refinement Realm. You won't be able to turn the situation around by yourself. Get ready to retreat. You're more valuable than all of us." Instructor Yang still did not give up the idea of persuading Lu Xuan to retreat, but now he was more relieved. With such strength, even if Lu Xuan was chased by Lan Duo, it was completely possible for him to escape.
Lu Xuan still shook his head and stopped Instructor Yang's persuasion, "Instructor Yang, don't worry. Since I said that they will all die, they will all die. I was just using this guy to practice."
The more he interacted with the outside world, the more Lu Xuan felt that his strength was insufficient. He couldn't wait to increase his strength, and the fastest way to do so was through battles, forcing out his potential and allowing himself to break through his limits.
Lu Xuan's cultivation speed was extremely fast. The main thing that was holding him back was his comprehension. As long as he could comprehend it, with his talent, it wouldn't be difficult for him to break through. It was precisely because of this that he was able to break through from the Tenth Level of Body Refinement to the Third Level of Spirit Refinement within three months in the Mystic Ice Secret Realm. The life-and-death battle with Lan Duo earlier caused his comprehension to soar rapidly. Battles were the best way to comprehend, it wasn't something that could be compared to inflexible cultivation.
Upon hearing Lu Xuan's words, Instructor Yang and Zhang Sanyu were stunned. A fourth-level Spirit Refinement cultivator was using a ninth-level Spirit Refinement cultivator as a practice? If they didn't personally witness Lu Xuan's strength, everyone would think that it was a joke.
Lu Xuan broke away from Instructor Yang's support and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Captain Zhang, Instructor Yang, just watch."
After saying that, Lu Xuan stood not far from Lan Duo, pointed the Profound Ice Phoenix Blood Sword at Lan Duo and said, "What other moves do you have, use them now!"
Lan Duo's face sank. Lu Xuan's repeated provocations were driving him crazy. Ever since he was successful in martial arts, he had never been so embarrassed. If he couldn't kill Lu Xuan, his old face would be completely lost.
