This cultivation technique had never been tried by anyone since it had been stored in the Red Blood Palace.
As he concentrated his mental energy, the virtual image of a person holding a sword appeared.
It was a tall and slender woman. At first glance, he thought it was Bing Wuxin, but her temperament was not as cold and ruthless as Bing Wuxin's. Instead, it was very gentle, like a small bridge with flowing water.
"Do you want to challenge me?" the woman on the wall asked. Her voice was simple and pleasant to listen to.
Su Yu nodded. "Yes!"
The woman on the wall nodded. "Fine, I'm just a virtual image. I will only use one move, and you only have one chance. If you can defeat me, the challenge will be considered a success."
"I understand. Let's begin." Su Yu nodded.
The woman pulled out the sword on her back slowly. Her temperament, which was just like a small bridge with flowing water, suddenly changed.
It was swift and fierce, like a hot knife through butter!
At this moment, she seemed to have turned into a long sword in her hand, looking down on everything and destroying everything.
Su Yu was shocked by the peerless sharpness. He could feel that his opponent's cultivation was the same as his, but the sword intent that erupted from her was earth-shattering.
"A Sword from the West!" The woman's virtual image thrust her sword at him.
Her movements were slow, without any fancy moves or techniques. It was just a simple thrust of the sword.
However, when facing this sword, Su Yu felt as if the entire world was filled with this sword, and he couldn't avoid it or escape from it.
He was shocked, but he no longer hesitated.
"A Dragon Shocks the Heavens!" Su Yu weaved signs with his hands, and demonic energy surged from his body. His chest was boiling hot, and he let out a loud dragon roar.
At the same time, a black dragon that was a hundred feet long flew out of the space in Su Yu's body.
A savage aura, a ferocious murderous energy, and the majesty of the dragon race filled the secret room.
Even Su Yu was astonished by such a powerful aura.
This demonic dragon was stronger than he had imagined!
Moreover, it gave Su Yu a familiar feeling, as if he had felt this demonic dragon's aura somewhere before.
The sword and the dragon collided in a shocking manner.
The sword energy pierced through the demonic energy like a rainbow, destroying everything in its path.
The demonic dragon roared, and its boundless power collided with the dense sword energy.
Buzz! Buzz!
The whole illusory fighting room trembled slightly.
The people in the fighting rooms outside were startled, and they couldn't help but look at Su Yu's fighting room in astonishment.
The expression of Tian Renyao, who was teasing a handsome man, suddenly froze. His eyes shone brightly as he looked at the fighting room, and a shocked expression appeared on his face. "Such a big commotion? What is Su Yuxian doing? "
Inside the room, the Demonic Dragon and the Sword Qi intertwined and destroyed each other.
The illusory figure stood unscathed and said calmly, "It's a draw."
Neither side could do anything to the other, so it was naturally a draw.
As soon as the voice finished speaking, the phantom dissipated.
In a sense, Su Yu's failure to defeat him meant that he had failed the challenge.
However, Su Yu was only practicing his new cultivation technique and had no intention of challenging it. Otherwise, if he used his full strength, he would be able to destroy the virtual shadow.
Ding!
With a soft sound, the stone door opened naturally. One day had passed.
So fast? Su Yu still didn't have enough of it, so he was forced to restrain his demonic energy and the Devil's Hair on his palm.
What surprised Su Yu was that the demonic hair had become much dimmer.
"Cultivating a dragon has consumed such a large amount of demonic energy. It seems like I must find something with sufficient demonic energy," Su Yu thought to himself.
As Su Yu stood up and left the stone room, Tian Renyao walked over to him and examined him. He then asked in surprise, "Brother Yuxian, what were you doing inside? You caused such a huge commotion and scared me to death. "
Su Yu replied, "I didn't do anything. I just exchanged a blow with the illusory figure in the stone wall and tried to practice my new cultivation technique. That woman is quite strong."
"Ah, you challenged Jian Wusheng?" Tian Renyao was surprised by this, and he examined Su Yu once again. "What was the result of the challenge? You didn't admit defeat, did you?"
Looking at Su Yu's appearance, there was nothing messy about about him.
Is that woman called Jian Wusheng? The name sounded like a man's.
"Admit defeat? Su Yu didn't understand why Tian Renyao was so surprised.
Tian Renyao was taken aback. "Then, what was the result of your fight?"
He couldn't understand. Since he didn't admit defeat, why was he still safe and sound? The cultivation of the figure in the painting would automatically adjust to the challenger's cultivation level.
He had challenged him many times, but he had never won.
In fact, it wasn't just him, as no one had ever succeeded in challenging him.
This was because Jian Wusheng was an invincible legend in the Red Blood Palace and the Eighteen Blessed and Heavenly Lands.
No one in the same generation as her could block a single sword strike from her.
Even now, no one had managed to break her undefeated record.
"It was probably a draw. That woman is really amazing," Su Yu said.
Tian Renyao's eyes unexpectedly widened, and he sucked in a breath of cold air. "You … You … You fought Jian Wusheng, who was in the same generation as you?"
When his words echoed out, many people in the surroundings looked at him in shock, as if they were looking at a monster.
Su Yu realized that this was odd, and he asked in surprise, "Is Jian Wusheng special?"
All of a sudden, the whole area quieted down, and they all looked at Su Yu as if he was an alien.
Tian Renyao's eyes widened, and it was only after a long while that he asked hesitantly, "Are you not from Jiuzhou? Don't you know who Jian Wusheng is?"
Su Yu was startled, and he replied hurriedly, "Before I came into the world, I lived in the depths of a mountain, so I don't know anything about the outside world. May I ask who Jian Wusheng is?"
Tian Renyao wore a doubtful look, but he didn't think too much about it, as it wasn't strange for people like Jian Wusheng to live in the depths of a mountain for a long time.
"As a disciple of the Red Blood Palace, you should learn about Jian Wusheng's great name. She used to be a disciple of the Red Blood Palace, and she was born here. She used to be the greatest person in her generation, and no one could block her sword. "
A peerless genius? Su Yu nodded, but he wasn't too surprised. He had seen many geniuses throughout the ages, and he had even fought a genius like Gu Taixu twice. So, it wasn't surprising at all.
"Oh, I see. Where is she now? Is she still in the Red Blood Palace? "Su Yu asked casually.
Tian Renyao said word by word, "She left the Red Blood Palace several hundred years ago, and now, she is one of the Jiuzhou Kings, the Lifeless Sword Prefecture's Prefecture King."
Wait … A Prefecture King? One of Jiuzhou's Nine Kings?
Su Yu was slightly shocked, as Jian Wusheng was unexpectedly a Prefecture King!
This meant that the person he had just fought was a Level Three Fairy Prefecture King!
It was no wonder that they were so surprised that Jian Wusheng was able to fight to a draw with the young Prefecture King.
Su Yu was surprised, but he quickly calmed down. After all, Jian Wusheng didn't just possess the power of a single sword strike, and fighting to a draw with her wasn't something worth showing off or being proud of.
"Oh, I see." Su Yu nodded.
Tian Renyao had waited for a long time, but Su Yu's current expression made him want to strangle Su Yu. "Can you change your expression? You don't understand what kind of earth-shattering matter you have just done. "
Su Yu shrugged his shoulders indifferently. "Oh, is that so? The secret room has been opened, so if you want to challenge it, you should hurry up. "
He was already short of money, and he only had 2,000 merit points left. He didn't even have a chance to enter it once!
Tian Renyao was so infuriated that his whole body shivered, and he quickly entered the secret room. "Fine, I will also give it a try. I want to see whether there is something wrong with the phantom image."
Ah!
However, after just a few minutes had passed, a miserable shriek echoed out. Tian Renyao covered his shoulder and ran out with a sullen look on his face. "There is nothing wrong with the phantom image. It's brother Yuxian who has a problem. You are the Demon Mountain's true demon!"
The news spread like a clap of thunder.
Everyone was shocked.
In the alluring Cabinet Mistress's mansion.
Wei Zheng and Xue Qi were both in a side room, and the alluring Cabinet Mistress was sitting opposite them.
"Aunt, please promise me that you will go back to the inner sanctum. Don't ruin yourself like this," Xue Qi begged.
The alluring Cabinet Mistress wasn't moved by her pleas, and she just cast a glance at her. "What? You came back from the inner sanctum again, and you want to watch the seasonal exam and find a candidate for the Left Hall Master?"
Xue Qi was helpless, and she knew that it would be useless to try and persuade her any further. So, she sighed and said, "Helping senior brother Wei Zheng is just one of my reasons. Moreover, I came back from the inner sanctum because I heard that Su Yu had come back, and I wanted to thank him for saving my life."
The news that she had been saved by Su Yu wasn't a secret at all.
"Okay, he's in the Demon Mountain, so you can go there and have a look at him at any time." The alluring Cabinet Mistress didn't take this seriously.
Wei Zheng chuckled and said, "Junior sister Xue Qi, you should quickly go there and come back. You should really pay back the debt you owe him as soon as possible, so that people won't misunderstand him and assume that he's our Left Palace Master's disciple. Then, in the future, he will rely on our Left Palace Master's reputation to run amok in the outer sanctum.
Xue Qi furrowed her brows. Wei Zheng's words were quite harsh. Although they hadn't known each other for a long time, Xue Qi could still feel that Su Yu wasn't a snobbish person.
"Senior brother Wei, if he wanted to become the Left Palace Master's disciple, he should have agreed to it yesterday. So, why did he have to rely on his reputation to intimidate others?" Xue Qi was slightly displeased.
Wei Zheng revealed a faint smile. "Him? He probably knows that he isn't qualified to become the Left Palace Master's disciple, so he rejected it to show his value. I have seen many people like him, so it isn't strange for him to act like this. "
Xue Qi was quite annoyed. Wei Zheng's power was pretty good, and that was why he had such high standards and arrogance.
At this moment, a maid hurriedly came to report something to the alluring Cabinet Master and whispered something in her ear.
The alluring Cabinet Master wore a calm expression, and she was startled for a moment before she shivered and asked, "Is this true?"
The maid replied, "It's absolutely true. Many outer sanctum disciples witnessed it with their own eyes, and Tian Renyao was also there. So, it shouldn't be false."
Xue Qi raised her brows and asked, "Auntie, what happened?"
This was the first time that she had seen her auntie lose control of herself like this.
The alluring Cabinet Master regained her composure and looked at Wei Zheng. She wore a faint smile as she said, "It's nothing. It's just some news that came from the fighting room. An outer sanctum disciple challenged Jian Wusheng and ended in a draw."
Xue Qi was startled. "It can't be! How is this possible?"
Wei Zheng's calm smile froze, and his eyes flickered with a bright light. Surprise appeared in his eyes as he asked, "Who is it?"
Delight welled up in his heart, as no one had ever managed to end in a draw against Jian Wusheng. Since this person could achieve such a feat, he must surely be someone with outstanding potential. In the outer sanctum, there were only a few talented youths selected from the eight great factions.
If he could recruit this person and make him the Left Palace Master's disciple, he would surely be heavily rewarded by the Left Palace Master.
The alluring Cabinet Master chuckled and said, "Why are you so surprised? Didn't you just meet him?"
