He Guofeng and Apollo were both S-class warriors. They were experienced and could tell that Gao Zhengyang was in a bad situation.
Miyamoto Masahide was not a threat at first. However, if he made the first move, no matter how Gao Zhengyang reacted, he would lose the initiative. Miyamoto Shigeaki, who had been accumulating power, would definitely grab the opportunity.
Miyamoto Shigeaki was known as Devil Blade. What he meant was that his Saber Technique was strange and unpredictable. S-class warriors had their own specialties. Miyamoto Shigeaki was undoubtedly one of the best swordsman.
Even warriors of the same level would not be willing to fight Miyamoto Shigeaki at close range. Moreover, there was Miyamoto Masahide beside Gao Zhengyang.
Even He Guofeng was not optimistic about Gao Zhengyang's chances. There were no tricks to play in this kind of close combat. In front of Devil Blade, Gao Zhengyang would not be able to play any tricks.
He Guofeng felt that the best outcome would be for Gao Zhengyang to find a chance to escape. He was still young. As long as he stayed alive, his future would be his.
Killing the Grizzly Bear would push his reputation to the peak. A small setback against Miyamoto Shigeaki would not change anything.
However, He Guofeng had a feeling that Gao Zhengyang would not escape. This person was too arrogant. Just by looking at his eyes, one could tell that nothing in this world was worthy of his attention.
The S-class warriors all had their own thoughts. However, no matter what they thought, they would only be spectators. No one wanted to interfere with this battle.
Miyamoto Masahide's swordsmanship was very fast, but that was only for ordinary people. For Gao Zhengyang, when he was focused, Miyamoto Masahide's swordsmanship would become very slow and light.
Due to the high speed of the swordsmanship, the blade would naturally tremble when it came into contact with the air. When the blade was slowed down by a hundred times and observed, one would find that the blade was as light as a piece of paper, without any texture.
This was due to Miyamoto Masahide's lack of skill and power. Although the swordsmanship was fast, it was not pure.
On the other hand, the old Miyamoto Shigeaki stood still with his sword. His blood and Qi surged like a river, and the hand holding the sword was as steady as a rock. The old man's eyes were as sharp as needles. Although he didn't make a move, the sword intent of the Heart and Blade as One had already locked onto him, showing the demeanor of an S-class expert.
In terms of combat skills, Miyamoto Shigeaki was clearly far superior to Violent Bear. However, the Violent Bear was too strong. Miyamoto Chomiaki might not be able to kill Grizzly Bear with a single slash, but Grizzly Bear could easily shatter Miyamoto Chomiaki with a single punch.
However, in Gao Zhengyang's eyes, Miyamoto Shigeaki's swordsmanship was just so-so. Although his Divine Will was firm and his heart and saber were as one. But it was only limited to the simplest level of the blade.
Compared to the Sea Race's Turtle Spring Muramasa, the difference was not only in cultivation, but also in life and strength.
Xiao Chen spent his entire life refining only one saber. Love and hate, pain and joy, sorrow and joy. Everything inside and outside of his body was poured into it. Only then did he forge that brilliant saber.
Gao Zhengyang had met countless experts in his life, but there was only one pure martial artist like Turtle Spring Muramasa. Even those at the eleventh and twelfth level weren't pure enough in comparison.
Unfortunately, Turtle Spring Village was born at the wrong time and couldn't break through their limits. However, the Essence Qi of Heaven and Earth changed. If he didn't die, he would have definitely become a Saint.
The path of purity was the simplest yet the most difficult one. Even Divine Masters had emotions and desires, let alone mortals.
Gao Zhengyang admired Turtle Spring Village's purity, so he learned the Sword-Drawing Technique. He couldn't achieve purity, but with his deep understanding of martial arts, he still grasped seventy to eighty percent of the essence of this Sword-Drawing Technique.
At the Divine level, this secret technique was useless because it wasn't pure. But on the Blue Planet, the Sword-Drawing Technique was a supreme technique.
Thinking of this, Gao Zhengyang gathered all his wandering thoughts. His entire body became one with the Dragon Abyss Sword in his hand.
The sudden change caused Gao Zhengyang's aura to change.
His originally relaxed and carefree attitude turned into a pure and flawless sword intent. The sword intent wasn't sharp, but it was perfect and free.
Like the clouds in the sky, like the round stones in the water, like the flowers on the roadside, it was full of the wonders of nature.
There was no joy or sorrow in Gao Zhengyang's eyes. He was calm and indifferent, without any killing intent. At this level of swordsmanship, it would be too low to be murderous.
Before Miyamoto Masahide's blade fell, Gao Zhengyang stepped sideways and pulled out his sword. The blade cut Miyamoto Masahide's arm in an arc and cut his upper body diagonally in half.
The sharp blade was so smooth that Miyamoto Masahide didn't notice it. He was still clenching his teeth and swinging his blade.
After the successful strike, the blade drew a natural arc and went back into the sheath.
Miyamoto Shigeaki seized the opportunity and swung his blade. When he swung his blade, it was Gao Zhengyang who swung his sword. When he swung his blade, Gao Zhengyang had just put his sword back into the sheath.
Miyamoto Shigeaki felt that this was a stupid tactic. The Sword-Drawing Technique won because it was sudden. But he had to put the blade back into the sheath after it was drawn.
This thought flashed through his mind. At this critical moment, he didn't have time to think about anything else. Although his nephew was dead, as long as he could kill Gao Zhengyang, it would all be worth it.
What surprised Miyamoto Shigeaki was that Gao Zhengyang had dodged the strike that he was so confident in.
Gao Zhengyang didn't dodge it with his speed. Instead, he made use of the slight force when the Dragon Abyss Sword was sheathed to make an exquisite turn. He only dodged half a foot. But this half a foot was like the end of the world to Miyamoto Shigeaki.
Gao Zhengyang's subtle yet exquisite change caused the three S-class experts to widen their eyes. Each of them had different strength, but they had the same insight.
In terms of the exquisiteness of martial arts, the technique that Gao Zhengyang had just displayed was better than anyone the three S-class experts had ever seen.
Of course, technique couldn't decide the outcome of a battle. But in a situation where their strength was at the same level, technique was the deciding factor.
Gao Zhengyang killed Miyamoto Masahide with one sword and dodged Miyamoto Shigeaki's strike. He immediately regained the initiative. It could be said that Miyamoto Masahide's attack at the cost of his life didn't achieve the desired result.
However, Miyamoto Shigeaki's reputation as the Devil Blade wasn't just for show.
When Miyamoto Shigeaki realized that he was about to lose, he immediately activated his ultimate technique, Shadow Slash.
The Muramasa Blade that had missed suddenly split into seven brilliant arcs of light, enveloping Gao Zhengyang from all directions.
Strictly speaking, Shadow Slash wasn't a blade technique. It was a special ability that Miyamoto Shigeaki had comprehended. This special ability allowed the blade to instantly change directions and split into multiple afterimages.
Out of the seven saber lights, only three were real, but these three saber lights were enough.
Miyamoto Shigeaki believed that Shadow Slash was enough to deal with Gao Zhengyang. At this distance, at this position, he was very confident.
Gao Zhengyang quickly let Miyamoto Shigeaki know that he was overthinking!
The Dragon Abyss Sword that was sheathed was unsheathed once again. The clear sword light landed on the Muramasa Blade. The seven sword lights dissipated at the same time.
The Dragon Void Sword in Gao Zhengyang's hand was once again sheathed.
Miyamoto Shigeaki's heart sank to the bottom. Gao Zhengyang sheathed his sword. His movements were elegant and natural, in line with the nature of the world.
At this moment, Miyamoto Shigeaki suddenly realized that the Sword Draw and Sheathe were not for the sake of showing off. Instead, they were directly controlling the rhythm and following the law of physical change.
After a powerful attack, one would inevitably fall into a trough. Therefore, sheathe the sword after the attack. Sheathe the sword was to readjust the aura and strength before attacking again.
Of course, the sheathing had to be done in a short period of time. Otherwise, there would be no chance for a second attack.
Gao Zhengyang had undoubtedly mastered the essence of this blade technique. He could use it freely. Facing the fierce attack, he was still calm and composed, without a trace of anger.
These thoughts flashed through Miyamoto Shigeaki's mind. He knew that it was impossible for him to dodge Gao Zhengyang's third attack, but he didn't want to wait for death.
His powerful special ability was activated again. Miyamoto Shigeaki's body suddenly retreated. The speed at which he retreated exceeded the speed of sound, creating a sonic boom in the air.
At the same time, Miyamoto Shigeaki's body split into three silhouettes, fleeing in three different directions.
The few S-class experts watching from the side were unable to identify Miyamoto Shigeaki's real body.
In Gao Zhengyang's senses, Miyamoto Shigeaki's real body could not be hidden. Be it the vibrations in the air or the details of the shadows, he could easily locate Miyamoto Shigeaki.
The Dragon Void Sword was once again sheathed.
The retreating Miyamoto Shigeaki retreated for tens of meters before his body split into two. His speed was too fast. His broken body flew left and right, only stopping when it hit the wall.
The kinetic energy from the extreme speed caused Miyamoto Shigeaki's broken body to turn into a pile of mud, splattering a large amount of blood on the wall. Like a modern abstract painting, it was impossible to tell that this was once a powerful S-class expert.
Only then did the sound of Gao Zhengyang's sword being sheathed resound.
Elisa, who was hiding behind Moroes, widened her eyes. She had not been able to see what had happened. All she could see was the flash of a cold blade. Then, Miyamoto Shigeaki disappeared. Miyamoto Masaei died a miserable death.
She asked Moroes with a blank expression, "Dad, where is Miyamoto Shigeaki?"
Although the battle had been short, it had been very complicated. Moroes did not want to explain. He simply said, "Dead."
"Err …" Elisa's mouth was wide open.
She had not seen how Grizzly Bear had been killed. As such, she could not help but doubt Gao Zhengyang. As for Miyamoto Shigeaki, he had definitely been killed by Gao Zhengyang. Moreover, he had been killed under the watchful eyes of several S-class experts.
From now on, Gao Zhengyang would be a well-deserved S-class expert. He would also be the youngest S-class expert in the world.
As she thought of this, Elisa's gaze toward Gao Zhengyang became more intense. If she could get this boy under her skirt, how awesome would that be?
When Elisa and Gao Zhengyang's gazes met, she felt that he was like an aloof god, emotionless and filled with an indescribable arrogance.
Her heart, which had been moving, immediately turned cold. Such an arrogant fellow would not belong to anyone.
The other S-class powerhouses felt the same way as Eliza.
At this moment, they all felt that Gao Zhengyang was looking down on them.
They were all feeling displeased. However, when they thought of that faintly discernible yet indestructible sword flash, they could only remain silent.
