The burly man did not seem to care about the injury on his hand at all. Once again, he swung his fist at Ye Xiwen. The wind from his fist whistled through the air.
Lu Xuan's eyes could not help but flash with surprise. The defense of a Three Star Body Refiner had reached such a powerful level? He thought to himself, if he had endured the power of the Golden Blaze just now, even if he was not seriously injured, he would not be able to exert any strength in his right hand for a short period of time. How could he be like this burly man?
In the face of his crazy attack, Lu Xuan could only resist again. Two consecutive sword strikes were able to successfully resolve his attack. Then, Lu Xuan wanted to try to break through his defense again, but he did not expect Ye Tian's voice to ring out. Ten breaths of time had passed unknowingly in the midst of the battle between the two. Lu Xuan only felt a flash before his eyes, and the scene around him suddenly changed. When he looked again, he had already returned to the entrance of the test passage. It was obvious that he had failed to pass the second round.
Lu Xuan did not rush to try to pass the test again. He stood in front of the passage and pondered carefully. Speaking of which, it was not that he did not have the possibility of defeating this Three Star Body Refiner. Although his defense was indeed ridiculously strong, if he was given enough time, he could completely defeat him. Unfortunately, Ye Tian had limited the time to pass the test to ten breaths, which meant that he had to use the force of a thunderbolt to break through.
"Previously, my Golden Blaze only hit his arm, so the damage should be limited. If I could hit his vital part, the damage would be even greater, and it would definitely affect his performance. The power of the Golden Blaze is not just for show. It only proves that the defense of his hands is stronger than the other parts of his body. I have chosen to collide with the opponent's strongest part." Lu Xuan whispered to himself.
Battle was not only a battle of courage, but also a battle of wits. Everyone had flaws and weaknesses, even someone as strong as Ye Tian. As long as you could find the opponent's weakness one step ahead, you would already have the upper hand in the battle.
After making his decision, Lu Xuan's eyes narrowed, and he once again stepped into the test passage.
When Lu Xuan once again appeared in the illusory test, it was no longer the martial artist from the first round. Obviously, after passing the test, there was no need for Lu Xuan to continue wasting time. Instead, he directly went to the second round. In front of him was the familiar burly man, a Three Star Body Refiner.
As soon as Ye Tian gave the command to begin, Lu Xuan did not hesitate at all. His longsword instantly turned into a stream of light and pierced forward. The Dragon Soars in the Sky attacked with great force like a flying dragon.
That brawny man was still in a familiar stance. His hands formed a cross in front of his chest, and the light of a khaki-colored shield covered him completely. Lu Xuan smirked. I knew you would try to block me like this!
Looking as the Smog Dust Sword was about to stab, Lu Xuan's essence energy revolved according to his will and actually suddenly changed moves in midair!
The Dragon Soars in the Sky with an indomitable will suddenly stopped. The Dust Sword drew an extremely smooth semicircle, not losing any power at all. His entire body spun in that instant, carrying the aura of the Dragon Soars in the Sky. His sword swept out, transforming into a Divine Dragon Swings its Tail. However, based on the aura of the Dragon Soars in the Sky, the power of this move was far greater than usual.
Boom!
A violent explosion sounded. An irresistible force suddenly blasted the shield of the burly man. The light of the shield instantly fluctuated violently. Then, like a broken mirror, it shattered into pieces. It couldn't resist such a powerful force at all.
While Lu Xuan could have broken the shield with the Dragon in the Sky at full force, it would have done no damage to the brawny man at all. Lu Xuan, on the other hand, had used his immense strength to break the shield in an instant and even sent the brawny man flying. After all, the brawny man would never have thought that Lu Xuan would not choose a more convenient way to break the shield, but instead chose a more laborious way to break it.
Seeing the burly man's body fly into the air, Lu Xuan quickly followed. He did not give him any time to react. The Smog Dust Sword continued to swing, and Riding the Six Dragons carried a majestic aura as it smashed towards the burly man.
The burly man was quite impressive. While he was in a weakened state in midair, he forcefully stabilized his body. With a furious roar, he punched out with both fists, wanting to block Lu Xuan's attack.
However, Lu Xuan had planned for an unprepared attack. Adding on the fact that he had made ample preparations, how could the burly man be a match for Lu Xuan? A powerful sword Qi swept out from the burly man's body. Even his fists could not completely block it. Immediately, many wounds opened up on his body. Blood flowed freely, looking extremely miserable.
"Hah!" With a loud shout, Lu Xuan saw the burly man slowly raise his hands from his chest, as if he was circulating some kind of cultivation technique. Following which, Lu Xuan saw a miraculous scene occur. The wounds on the burly man's body actually began to heal by themselves. Other than the traces of blood on his body, it was as if nothing had happened.
"Eh? This fellow actually has a self-healing technique?" Lu Xuan thought curiously. This should be a divine ability belonging to the Yi Wood or Jiu Water Divine Inscriptions.
However, this divine ability clearly consumed a lot of energy. Lu Xuan sensed that the aura of the burly man in front of him was a little weaker. It seemed that in order to heal all the wounds on his body, he had expended a lot of his Divine Inscriptions' energy. However, he had no other choice. If he allowed the blood to flow freely, he would probably be drained dry halfway through the battle.
"Arrogant Dragon's Regrets!" Lu Xuan finally executed the strongest sword move of the Dragon Transformation Seven Swords. Changing Will with Will, he instantly unleashed his peak sword intent. In an instant, he became one with the sword. With a sword in hand, he was invincible!
The extremely sharp sword pierced through space in the blink of an eye, piercing towards the center of the burly man's eyebrows. The power of this move had completely reached the Origin Realm. Even if the burly man relied on his amazing defense, he definitely wouldn't dare to take this attack head-on. A punch was sent out, but it was instantly torn apart by Lu Xuan's sword intent. Attacking wasn't the burly man's forte.
The burly man was helpless. He could only choose to retreat and defend. A barrier appeared once again, condensing in front of his face, protecting the center of his eyebrows, preventing Lu Xuan from succeeding.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan's mouth curled into a trace of a smile. This is the moment I've been waiting for!
The Masked Dust Sword continued to pierce forward. As expected, when it pierced the burly man's barrier, the power of this sword instantly weakened. Although it successfully broke through the barrier, it was no longer enough to kill him.
And at this moment, Lu Xuan's figure suddenly disappeared from his original position. He had actually circulated the Sprint Thunder Flash. The Sprint Thunder Flash's grade was actually not that obvious when it was used to deal with a battle of this level. Most of the time, the enemy would be able to see through it in advance. But this time, Lu Xuan had caught the burly man by surprise. Coupled with the fact that the burly man didn't have any spare energy to block it, Lu Xuan had to use it.
In the next moment, Lu Xuan's figure had already appeared behind the burly man. It was unknown when the Masked Dust Sword had been kept by Lu Xuan. Only his two fists were left, but the power of Lu Xuan's fists might not be any weaker than the sword in his hands.
"Golden Blaze Explosion!" Shouted Lu Xuan. A pair of fists shining with a golden luster, with lightning speed, ruthlessly smashed into the burly man's back.
The power of the Geng Metal broke through the burly man's physical defense without any suspense. The power of the Bing Fire Divine Glyph instantly exploded in his body. This time, Lu Xuan didn't hit his arm, but his internal organs. The same attack hit different places, but the effect was completely different.
"Pu!" The burly man immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. He hurriedly turned around, wanting to intercept Lu Xuan. But Lu Xuan flashed again, dodging the burly man's interception. He once again returned behind the burly man and punched the same place.
"Ka ka!"
Two crisp sounds rang out, and Lu Xuan was able to hear it clearly. This time, the power behind Lu Xuan's attack had actually broken the man's bones. For a body cultivator, the toughest part of their body was their bones, as they were the foundation that supported the entire body. However, the man had become extremely weak after his internal organs were injured, and there was no way he could withstand Lu Xuan's full-powered attack.
"Second test passed!" Ye Tian's voice rang out. Although this cultivator hadn't died yet, his internal organs were injured, his back was broken, and he had lost all his strength. Death was only a matter of time.
Hearing Ye Tian's announcement, Lu Xuan finally let out a sigh of relief. He had finally succeeded this time. It seemed like even a powerful martial skill had to be used in the right place. If he hadn't succeeded this time, Lu Xuan would have been forced to use the Sky Sword Ninth Layer. With the power of the Sky Sword Ninth Layer, it would definitely be enough to break through his defense. But if that was the case, it would seem like he would lose the essence of training.
"In the third test, the opponent is my senior brother from the same sect, Li Wei. He specializes in the God Refinement Lineage and has an extremely high talent in sword dao. His strength is at the initial stage of the Origin Realm. You can only use the strength of the God Refinement Lineage to defeat him. There is no time limit."
Ye Tian announced the third test's opponent. But this time, he limited Lu Xuan's strength to that of the God Refinement Lineage. Which meant that Lu Xuan couldn't use soul spirit secret techniques or divine arts.
It was apparent that Ye Tian had anticipated that Lu Xuan's combat prowess would be much higher than that of an average warrior after learning all three methods. It was especially so when dealing with warriors who specialized in cultivating the Divine Bloodline. Secret soul techniques and magic arts would often play an unexpected role.
However, the identity of the next opponent piqued Lu Xuan's interest. It was actually Ye Tian's senior brother from the same sect. Furthermore, this was the first time Ye Tian had named his opponent. Since he was worthy of Ye Tian's title of having an extremely high talent in sword dao, then his talent in sword dao must be extremely high.
However, Lu Xuan wasn't afraid at all. Instead, he was eager to try. In the previous two tests, he had learned quite a lot. Since the third test was against a cultivator who specialized in sword dao, then he would definitely be able to gain more insights from him. Who knows, he might even be able to break through to the Origin Realm.
A figure appeared in front of Lu Xuan. This was Ye Tian's former disciple, Li Wei. He looked rather ordinary, or rather, simple and honest. He had an introverted aura and didn't look like a top-notch swordsman. He gave off a completely different vibe from Ye Tian. The moment Lu Xuan saw him, he couldn't help but think of Wind Sword School's Mo Qiuchen. It seemed that Mo Qiuchen gave off the same vibe. This kind of person was a true fanatic. Mo Qiuchen was a spear fanatic, and this Li Wei was a sword fanatic.
