Without waiting for Bing Ling to persuade him again, Lu Xuan slowly advanced with the Masked Sword in hand. Facing Nangong Shuo, he advanced instead of retreating.
"Lu Xuan, if you had known your place, perhaps I could have allowed you to live for two more years. However, you actually killed Qingqiu. If I don't kill you for revenge, it will be difficult to quell the hatred in my heart," Nangong Shuo said coldly as he looked at Lu Xuan.
"I feel the same way. If I don't kill Leng Qingqiu, it will be difficult to quell the hatred in my heart," Lu Xuan said indifferently, "Now, let me experience the strength of a great elder."
"How dare you. However, I won't let you die so easily. Whatever you did to Qingqiu, I will repay it for him. This sword will take your left ear!" As soon as Nangong Shuo finished speaking, his longsword moved rapidly. Just as he said, it directly slashed at Lu Xuan's left ear.
At this moment, Lu Xuan raised his hand and waved an item. A formation plate flew out rapidly and in an instant, eight small flags flew in different directions. As the flags landed on the ground, a misty fog immediately appeared.
Nangong Shuo felt the scene in front of him instantly change. The surrounding forest suddenly disappeared, and it was as if he had arrived at an extremely beautiful place with verdant hills and limpid waters. He was surrounded by flowing water, and his own figure was reflected in a small pond.
"It's actually an illusion formation!" Nangong Shuo was slightly shocked.
Without a doubt, this was the formation plate Lu Xuan had obtained from the Celestial Emperor Palace's Jewel Pavilion. Seven Star Illusion Formation, Mirage Formation. Facing Nangong Shuo, Lu Xuan threw it out without the slightest hesitation.
"If it was an illusion formation laid down by a Divine Talisman Master, perhaps I would be a little afraid. But what can a mere illusion formation that hasn't even reached eight stars do to me?" Nangong Shuo roared and waved his longsword. Powerful yuan power suddenly swept out and in an instant, the surrounding scenery was instantly torn apart like a canvas. The surrounding forest once again appeared in front of him.
Right at this moment, his eyes suddenly focused. Because in this instant, Lu Xuan had actually seized this opportunity to launch an attack, and an extremely gorgeous sword stabbed towards his chest with extremely ferocious might.
Facing an expert of Nangong Shuo's level, Lu Xuan did not hesitate to use the first form of the Nine Heavenly Sword Layers — Unity of Heaven and Man. The difference in their cultivation levels was too great. Lu Xuan did not even try the Spiritual Sword and immediately used his strongest martial technique.
Nangong Shuo didn't back off when he felt the sword in front of him. As a peak stage Origin Realm expert, his pride didn't allow him to back off. He lifted his sword and stabbed forward while shouting, "Blood Droplet Style!"
A drop of essence blood was ignited. The revolving sword qi looked as though it was going to break through everything as it welcomed Lu Xuan's attack. But right at this moment, Lu Xuan roared and spun along with his sword. An even faster sword was unleashed from his hand. It was actually the second form of the Nine Heavenly Sword Layers — Meteor Chases Moon!
After practicing for a long time in the Heaven Emperor Palace, Lu Xuan was finally able to combine these two moves together. Meteor Chases Moon was released later but arrived first. An intense sword qi was sent towards Nangong Shuo with great force.
Nangong Shuo didn't expect this at all. He didn't even think that a sword move could be so fast, especially when it was released by a kid at the first level of the Origin Realm.
The power of the Blood Droplet Style was completely nullified by the Meteor Chases Moon. The Union of Heaven and Man followed closely behind and attacked Nangong Shuo. At such a close distance, even if Nangong Shuo was a peak stage Origin Realm expert, he wouldn't be able to block it in time.
At this moment, talking about the pride of a peak stage Origin Realm expert to Nangong Shuo was bullsh * t. Even an Origin Realm expert wouldn't be able to block this attack. He could only choose to dodge. If not, the outcome that awaited him would be exactly the same as Leng Qingqiu.
"Chi La!" The sound of cloth tearing could be heard. Nangong Shuo's right sleeve was shredded by the powerful essence force, revealing his smooth arm. If he was one step slower, it wouldn't be his sleeve that was torn, it would be his right arm instead.
Nangong Shuo was shocked and infuriated, "Good lad, I actually underestimated you."
Such a dangerous encounter, he couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. He almost failed miserably this time.
The rest of the martial artists couldn't help but stare with their mouths wide open. When did Lu Xuan become so powerful? Even Nangong Shuo was almost injured? If Nangong Shuo hadn't dodged quickly, he would have lost one of his hands. The disciples who didn't see how Leng Qingqiu died also understood that with Lu Xuan's current strength, Leng Qingqiu probably wouldn't be able to withstand it.
Lu Xuan felt extremely regretful in his heart. He didn't expect that he wouldn't be able to injure Nangong Shuo like this. He probably wouldn't have such a good opportunity in the future. The Illusionary Flower Water Moon Array had already been destroyed by Nangong Shuo, and Nangong Shuo would definitely be even more vigilant.
As expected, the enraged Nangong Shuo no longer gave Lu Xuan a chance to make the first move. His body shot out and ruthlessly slashed at Lu Xuan with his sword. He no longer mentioned anything about cutting off Lu Xuan's ears. This brat was a little strange, so it was best to get rid of him quickly.
Seeing Nangong Shuo's sword sweeping over, Lu Xuan instantly mobilized his soul force. He circulated all of his soul force and ruthlessly attacked Nangong Shuo. It was the secret soul technique, Soul Shaker Technique!
This was the first time Nangong Shuo had encountered such an attack. In an instant, he felt a sharp pain in his mind. His vision blurred, and he couldn't see anything clearly. Lu Xuan took advantage of this rare opportunity to attack again. It was still the ninth level of the Heaven Sword.
However, this time, Nangong Shuo wasn't affected as much as the Illusionary Flower Water Moon. He quickly recovered. Even if he didn't specialize in soul cultivation, he was still at the peak of the Origin Realm. How bad could his soul force be?
When Lu Xuan used the Union of Heaven and Man, he had already changed his move. His longsword directly collided with the Masked Dust Sword. Being disturbed by Nangong Shuo, Lu Xuan was finally unable to release the Meteor Chasing Moon. He was forced to face Nangong Shuo head on.
The piercing power penetrated into his body through the Masked Dust Sword. In an instant, the Divine Markings in Lu Xuan's body glowed brightly, desperately trying to neutralize this power.
Seeing that Lu Xuan only swayed slightly and didn't suffer much damage, Nangong Shuo was slightly surprised. This bastard Lu Xuan's defense was quite strong. He actually withstood the power of his sword and wasn't injured? This was even stronger than Su Chuanan.
After all, Lu Xuan was a 2-star body refinement expert. His defense was far stronger than Su Chuanan's. In addition, the Union of Heaven and Man had already helped him block a portion of the power. It wasn't too uncomfortable.
However, Nangong Shuo didn't mind. So what if Lu Xuan could withstand one sword? Let's see how many swords Lu Xuan could take. With a flick of his wrist, the longsword spun, and the longsword slashed down ferociously towards Lu Xuan's head. It was as if he wanted to cleave Lu Xuan in half.
An intense sense of danger washed over him. Lu Xuan's vigilance was raised to the maximum. The might of Nangong Shuo's sword was too strong. If he couldn't block it, he would definitely die on the spot.
In an instant, Lu Xuan unleashed all the techniques he had. His soul force surged, and the 6-star talisman, the Black Tortoise Talisman, formed a shield in front of him. Closely after, the Yimu Divine Markings in his body also lit up. A green light shone from his body, condensing into a wall of thorns. At the same time, a dark-gold elemental armor appeared around Lu Xuan's body. His longsword was placed horizontally in front of him, and he used the Dragon Transformation Seven Swords, Long Zaitian, to seal off Nangong Shuo's path of attack.
At that moment, it could be said that he had raised his defensive powers to the very limit. He used all of the defensive martial arts of the three major methods, the Spirit Cultivation Method, the Body Cultivation Method, and the Soul Cultivation Method. Coupled with the Inaction Armor that he wore, his defensive powers were unprecedentedly strong.
"Die for me!" A light flashed in Nangong Shuo's eyes. He roared in anger, and his longsword suddenly smashed down with boundless power.
With a loud bang, the sword in his hand fiercely chopped down on Lu Xuan's Dusty Sword. Bang! An endless amount of dust was instantly stirred up by this strike. Under the enormous pressure, the place where Lu Xuan was standing suddenly caved in. Half of his leg was already buried in the soil.
Seeing that Long Zaitian had been instantly destroyed by Nangong Shuo, the Black Tortoise Talisman immediately shattered. The wall of thorns didn't even last for an instant before it also collapsed. However, it had already reflected a portion of the power back to Nangong Shuo. Nangong Shuo only felt a slight tremor in his hands. His strength had unexpectedly decreased by half a point. However, he believed that even after being weakened, it would still be enough to kill Lu Xuan!
After the Blood Droplet Style broke through Lu Xuan's elemental armor, the power was finally transmitted to the Inaction Armor. Actually, all of the previous defenses couldn't be compared to the Inaction Armor, because the Inaction Armor was an earth tier superior grade artifact.
Lu Xuan's body shuddered as he withstood the immense force. However, the Inaction Armor reduced much of the impact of the force. By the time the force reached his body, it was no longer as lethal as it had been before.
A trace of blood seeped out from the corner of Lu Xuan's mouth. He reached out his hand to wipe it off and laughed loudly, "Nangong Shuo, this is your strength? You can't even kill a mere first level Origin Realm brat like me? "
Seeing that Lu Xuan was actually fine, Nangong Shuo couldn't help but be shocked. How was this possible? Even if it was Su Chuanan who received this blade of his, he would have lost half his life. A mere Lu Xuan actually didn't suffer any serious injuries?
Xia Chenxi, who was at the side, let out a huge sigh of relief. At that moment, her heart was in a mess and her palms were full of sweat. Now that she heard Lu Xuan speak with such confidence, her heart finally returned to her stomach. But she knew that Lu Xuan's crisis wasn't over yet. Nangong Shuo would definitely not let this matter rest. She could only hope that Elder Zhao and the others could return quickly.
Not only was Xia Chenxi waiting for Zhao Ying, Lu Xuan was also waiting. Currently, the only person who could save him from this predicament was Zhao Ying. Against Nangong Shuo, even Zhao Bing`er wouldn't be able to help.
"Nangong Shuo, stop it. I have already informed the Pavilion Master. He is now on his way. If you admit your mistake now, the Pavilion Master might consider your hard work and spare your life." Su Chuanan was already standing at the side. He wasn't a match for Nangong Shuo and couldn't help much with Lu Xuan. But his mood was extremely good. Nangong Shuo had made such a decision. Even if he didn't die, he wouldn't be able to be the Grand Elder. The position of the Pavilion Master of Mystic Ice Pavilion was already half in his hands.
