Seeing that countless Sword Qi was coming at him again, Lu Xuan had no choice but to use Phoenix Soaring Ninth Heaven again to change his position. At the same time, he used Blink Sword Art and used all his strength to break the countless attacks.
Both of them used all their skills. Wan Jianfei could not wait to force Lu Xuan into a dead end and use Melody of Ten Thousand Swords to heavily injure Lu Xuan. However, Lu Xuan's Phoenix Soaring Ninth Heaven was too powerful, and he could not gain an absolute advantage.
However, Lu Xuan could not find the time to counterattack Wan Jianfei. If Wan Jianfei's attack was only at the level of Tang Yi, Lu Xuan could naturally deal with it easily. Unfortunately, Wan Jianfei's foundation was very deep, and Lu Xuan could only maintain self-defense and could not counterattack.
The scene fell into a stalemate for a while. Wan Jianfei's attacks were not successful, and Lu Xuan was also powerless to counterattack. The spectating disciples stared with their eyes wide open, their state of mind constantly fluctuating with the two's attacks. Every time Wan Jianfei attacked, there seemed to be an excellent opportunity to heavily injure Lu Xuan. However, Lu Xuan's extremely mysterious movement technique allowed him to dodge Wan Jianfei's attacks again and again. He even had the strength to break Wan Jianfei's attacks. However, every time Lu Xuan wanted to take the opportunity to counterattack, Wan Jianfei's next wave of attacks came again.
The two of them went back and forth, and in the blink of an eye, they had fought more than ten rounds. Lu Xuan and Wan Jianfei both held their breaths, not daring to relax at all. At this point in the battle, every mistake could be fatal and could directly lead to the outcome of the battle.
The spectating disciples who were watching with great interest at the beginning could not help but feel a little numb at this moment. Although it seemed to be surrounded by danger, they could see that the strength of the two was extremely close, and neither could gain the upper hand. It could be said that the battle up to this point was no longer a contest of strength, but a contest of foundation. It was a contest of consumption. Whoever could exhaust the opponent's yuan qi first would be the winner.
This scene was extremely similar to the battle between Han Feng and Du Xiaomao from before. The outcome of that battle was Han Feng's defeat, and Du Xiaomao relied on a single Dark Ice Finger to barely win.
Although this battle was between Wan Jianfei and Lu Xuan, it was extremely similar to the previous battle. Wan Jianfei and Han Feng were both disciples of Nangong Shuo, while Lu Xuan and Du Xiaomao were disciples of Zhao Ying. Moreover, Du Xiaomao and Han Feng were both new disciples, while Lu Xuan and Wan Jianfei were the second strongest disciples under Nangong Shuo and Zhao Ying.
Nangong Shuo's faction had already been defeated once. What would the result be this time?
Wan Jianfei's expression was somewhat unsightly. He did not expect that in the end, it would still be his turn to compete with Lu Xuan in terms of consumption. Even if he won like this, there was not a shred of glory on his face. As an expert at the ninth tier of the Spirit Refinement realm, the density of his yuan qi was not something that a martial artist at the fifth tier of the Spirit Refinement realm could compare with. Moreover, Lu Xuan had already fought eight battles in a row. Even if Lu Xuan had not used his full strength before, he had still consumed a lot of yuan qi.
However, the situation was already like this, and Wan Jianfei had no other choice. The Melody of Ten Thousand Swords was already his strongest move. Since he could not smoothly defeat Lu Xuan, it proved that Lu Xuan's strength was really not below his. Even if Wan Jianfei was unwilling to admit it, he had to face the truth. The only thing he could do now was to win this battle.
Although it was somewhat disgraceful, Wan Jianfei believed that he would not lose. How could Lu Xuan, who was at the fifth tier of the Spirit Refinement realm, compete with him in a battle of attrition? He estimated that Lu Xuan would at most be able to hold on for another twenty rounds.
However, the development of the battle seemed to be somewhat out of Wan Jianfei's expectations. Both sides went back and forth, neither giving way to the other. Both of their attacks were extremely fast, and they actually exchanged another ten moves in a row. However, Lu Xuan's face was still not red, and he was not out of breath.
Seeing this scene, the disciples who were feeling a little bored earlier could not help but become a little interested.
"Could it be that this move of Lu Xuan's consumes very little yuan qi? He has already exchanged close to thirty moves with Wan Jianfei, but he still shows no signs of losing? "
"That's impossible. Not only does Lu Xuan have to use his movement skill to avoid Wan Jianfei's attacks, he also has to break his sword qi. Logically speaking, he should have consumed more yuan qi than Wan Jianfei."
"This is going to be interesting. Lu Xuan is really hiding his strength. His strength is so strong, and his yuan qi is actually so vigorous. Just how did he cultivate?"
"Maybe he was lucky enough to eat some heavenly treasure. Who knows? In any case, I don't believe that someone's talent can be so strong. In a short two years, he cultivated from the fourth tier of the Body Refinement realm to the fifth tier of the Spirit Refinement realm."
"Heh, you really don't believe me. Let me tell you, it is said that the disciples of those big sects all have incomparably fast cultivation speed. Compared to them, Lu Xuan's cultivation speed is only average."
"Don't try to bluff me. Our Profound Ice Pavilion is also considered a big sect. Why haven't we seen this kind of genius? Even Senior Brother Leng and Senior Sister Bing 'er can't reach this level."
"Compared to small sects, the Profound Ice Pavilion is naturally a big sect. But compared to those fifth-grade sects, we are also a small sect. It is said that there are also sixth-grade sects. I don't know if this is true or not."
… …
These disciples watched the battle while talking nonsense.
Every moment that Lu Xuan endured, Wan Jianfei's heart sank a little. He didn't know why, but he faintly felt uneasy. Although he comforted himself that this was just his illusion, a martial artist's feelings were never without reason. Wan Jianfei could only force himself to calm down, but his attacks became more and more violent.
Lu Xuan's defense was still unbreakable. Wan Jianfei couldn't attack him at all. At the same time, the Tai Yi Return to Origin Technique was still in operation. The most heaven-defying aspect of the Tai Yi Return to Origin Technique was that it could still recover Yuan Power during battle. Relying on Lu Xuan's own vigorous Yuan Power and the recovery ability of the Tai Yi Return to Origin Technique, unless the opponent's strength was much higher than his, it was simply unrealistic to want to compete with him in a battle of attrition.
Gradually, the disciples finally discovered that there was a slight change in the battle situation. That was, the Sword Qi around Wan Jianfei's body began to slowly decrease. Every time he sent out a Sword Qi, the Sword Qi around him would decrease by one. Before, Wan Jianfei could timely replenish his Sword Qi. This discovery made them unable to help but be shocked.
"Senior-apprentice Brother Wan can't hold on anymore?"
"This is simply unbelievable. Senior-apprentice Brother Wan can't compete with Lu Xuan in a battle of attrition?"
Although they had previously guessed that Lu Xuan's Yuan Power might be extremely vigorous and Wan Jianfei might not be a match for him, but when they really saw this scene, it was still somewhat unbelievable.
But no matter how they didn't dare to believe it, it was a fact. Wan Jianfei's Sword Qi was still constantly decreasing. At this moment, although Lu Xuan's Yuan Power was also greatly depleted, at least he could still hold on for a period of time.
Wan Jianfei's face was as gloomy as water. He also found it hard to accept that Lu Xuan's Yuan Power was vigorous. In terms of strength, he was almost on par with Lu Xuan, but in a battle of attrition, he was actually still at a disadvantage. How could he accept this?
Finally, the Sword Qi around Wan Jianfei was all pushed away by him, but Lu Xuan still stayed in the air, not moving an inch.
Many people let out a long sigh of relief, suppressing the shock in their hearts. At this moment, the battle situation was already very obvious. Lu Xuan still had energy to spare, but Wan Jianfei had already exhausted his Sword Qi. Could it be that the outcome of the battle between Han Feng and Du Xiaomao was going to repeat itself? Wan Jianfei was still going to lose at the hands of Lu Xuan?
But with the same outcome, Lu Xuan's battle was even more shocking. Han Feng and Du Xiaomao's strength were similar, and it could even be said that Du Xiaomao was slightly stronger, so there was nothing unacceptable about him winning. But on the surface, Wan Jianfei's strength was much stronger than Lu Xuan's.
Wan Jianfei's gaze swept across the crowd. He saw many people's expressions of pity, and also saw many people's gloating. He could not help but sneer in his heart. Did he really think that he was going to lose? He was just pretending to be weak!
Right at this moment, Wan Jianfei's body suddenly erupted with an extremely powerful aura. This feeling was like a dying person suddenly having the last radiance of the setting sun. At this moment, Wan Jianfei's body did not have the slightest appearance of Origin Power being exhausted. He was clearly full of energy!
Everyone was instantly dumbfounded. Before they could react, Wan Jianfei suddenly launched an attack. Countless dense and familiar Sword Qi suddenly reappeared, as usual!
Only to hear Wan Jianfei's explosive yell, "End of Song!"
The Song of Ten Thousand Swords, the attack began at the beginning of the song, and ended at the end of the song! End of Song, represented that this was Wan Jianfei's strongest and final move!
He had long seen that Lu Xuan's Origin Power was vigorous, and he might not be able to win if he fought head-on. Therefore, he decisively pretended to be weak, letting Lu Xuan think that his Origin Power was insufficient. In the end, he even stopped attacking in order to disrupt Lu Xuan's rhythm. At the same time, he used the strongest move of the Melody of Ten Thousand Swords to defeat his opponent in one move!
It had to be said that Wan Jianfei's plan was quite successful. Lu Xuan indeed thought that Wan Jianfei had no more strength left, but he did not expect that he would actually counterattack.
Overwhelming Sword Qi instantly shrouded Lu Xuan. The endless sword chimes disturbed Lu Xuan's mind, making it impossible for him to concentrate. However, he could not shut off his hearing either. In a battle, hearing was very important.
That move was extremely similar to the One Sword of Ten Thousand Shadows that Wan Jianfei used before, but it was several times more powerful. The One Sword of Ten Thousand Shadows was just an image of a sword, and its attack power could not compare to a real sword qi at all. It was completely impossible for Lu Xuan to break the Song of Ten Thousand Swords like he did with the One Sword of Ten Thousand Shadows.
In the face of such a powerful attack, Lu Xuan's spirit was unprecedentedly focused. His eyes were sharp, and he gripped the longsword in his hand firmly, without the slightest tremble. Lu Xuan was right about one thing when he told Wan Jianfei before. He was a person who grew stronger when he met the strong. This move had completely forced out his potential!
Lu Xuan was gradually unable to hear the ringing of the swords around him. At that moment, he entered the state of Thoughtless Tranquility once again. However, he was not making a breakthrough this time around. Instead, he was in the state of Thoughtless Tranquility during battle.
Entering the state of Thoughtless Tranquility during cultivation could help a martial artist speed up their comprehension, as if they could see everything more clearly. Entering the state of Thoughtless Tranquility during battle could help a martial artist fully focus on the enemy. Other than the endless Sword Qi around him, Lu Xuan could not pay attention to anything else.
