"Break!" A ferocious grin appeared on Lan Yu's face. It was as if he could already see his palm strike shattering the sword light and shattering his opponent's body into pieces.
Imagination was beautiful, but reality was cruel.
The giant palm and the Sword Light collided in an instant.
The giant palm didn't shatter the Sword Light as it wished. Instead, it clashed with the Sword Light. Both sides stopped in mid-air, equally matched.
"This is impossible!" Lan Yu shrieked. He was a Five Star Saint Realm expert, and a Five Star Saint Realm expert at that. On the other hand, his opponent was merely a One Star Saint Realm expert who had just broken through.
The Sword Light and the giant palm collided. The Sword Light cut into the giant palm bit by bit. Chu Mu leaped over the Sword Light and stabbed his sword towards Lan Yu.
A sword appeared in Lan Yu's hand. He swung it, and the sword light was like a rainbow piercing through the sun, blasting towards Chu Mu. Then, he formed a seal with his left hand, and an ice storm rolled out.
He didn't show any mercy. Every move was to kill Chu Mu.
Facing Lan Yu's merciless attack, Chu Mu didn't show any fear. His expression was calm, but there was a glimmer of excitement in his eyes.
The golden-red blood in his body was as thick as magma, flowing in his veins, bringing powerful energy to his Saint Body.
The Sword Light was sharp, and it cut the ice storm in half. His body twisted in mid-air, and with a mysterious technique, he dodged Lan Yu's Sword Light and quickly closed in.
Close combat had always been Chu Mu's forte. Facing a strong opponent like Lan Yu, whose cultivation was much higher than his, Chu Mu wouldn't be so stupid to give up his strength to fight with his opponent.
Making up for his shortcomings and magnifying his advantages was the right way to go.
As Lan Yu closed in, swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Dozens of sword lights rained down on Lan Yu, leaving him nowhere to dodge.
With a slash of the Sword Light, an arc-shaped light shield appeared around him, forcibly blocking the bombardment of the storm-like Sword Light. Layer after layer of ripples, the light shield shattered, and the Sword Light also dissipated.
Lan Yu raised his left palm and pushed it forward. A rumbling sound rang out, as if it was capable of toppling mountains and overturning seas.
A terrifying aura swept out, rushing towards Chu Mu. In an instant, Chu Mu felt as if he was facing a riot of a vast ocean. In front of nature, humans seemed so small.
However, Lan Yu's attack only carried a trace of ocean-like aura. It wasn't a real ocean, so it wasn't impossible for Chu Mu to resist.
The Heaven Beheading Sword was raised, and a silver light rapidly shot up from the sword guard, displaying the extreme sharpness, and finally condensed at the sword tip.
Chop!
Ninth grade sword energy, Slashing Sword Intent.
With a slash of the sword, the earth-shattering power was split into two.
A true Sword Saint relied on his unstoppable sharpness. A single slash of his sword could split everything in the world, regardless of whether it was hard or soft.
With a flip of his wrist, the Heaven Beheading Sword's sharpness was like water. Under the Piercing Sword Intent, the sharpness that could pierce through everything made Lan Yu's pupils shrink. This sword was very powerful, and he didn't dare to take it head-on.
"Damn it, how can this guy be so powerful?" Lan Yu roared in his heart.
The difference between a five-star high-level Saint and a one-star low-level Saint was immeasurable. If he wanted to kill Lan Yu, it should be as easy as blowing off dust.
Even if Lan Yu was a peerless genius, he would only need to expend a little more energy. It was insignificant.
He believed that even a rare monstrous genius who could fight across one or two heavens couldn't possibly fight across four heavens.
But what was going on now?
How could a one-star low-level Saint be able to fight evenly with a five-star high-level Saint like him?
Puzzled, Lan Yu was extremely puzzled.
At the same time, he felt a chill in his heart. If such a person with such strength were to mature, he would definitely be a peerless expert in the future. He might even be able to break through to the Saint Emperor Realm.
Thinking of this, Lan Yu's heart shuddered.
He had already shed all pretense of cordiality with Lan Yu, and there was only a matter of life and death. The stronger Lan Yu was, the more he had to kill him. Otherwise, there would be revenge in the future …
His killing intent surged, and it continued to expand under the dense murderous aura of the Ancient Sacred City.
Lan Yu's eyes were filled with a fiendish scarlet.
The strength of his attacks increased by two notches, and his speed increased as well. This made his attacks even more powerful.
In an instant, the pressure on Chu Mu increased a little.
Dodging, counterattacking with his sword, fighting in close combat, and withstanding the increased pressure, he was able to advance and retreat freely.
Chu Mu's figure moved rapidly around Lan Yu. Although even a nine-star Saint couldn't fly in the Ancient Sacred City, if one's control over their body and strength reached a certain level, they could still fly for a short period of time.
Controlling his body and strength wasn't difficult for Chu Mu.
With a thrust of his sword, the clouds surged. The Sword Light was incomparably sharp as it silently pierced towards Lan Yu.
Lan Yu only felt a sudden surge of clouds around him, bringing with it a sticky energy that slowed his movements. Then, a highly condensed Sword Light silently pierced through the clouds and shot towards him.
A chill rose from the depths of his heart as Lan Yu felt extreme danger.
"Ice Blue Palm!" With a furious roar, Lan Yu struck out with his palm. A huge ice blue palm appeared, as if it was formed from thousand-year-old ice. The palm lines on it were like the cracks of a glacier, clearly visible.
The huge ice palm swept through the clouds and was pierced by the Sword Light of the Cloud Piercing Sword.
The Ice Blue Palm was one of Lan Yu's ultimate techniques. It was a powerful close combat ice spell. The blood of those hit would freeze and their bodies would shatter. Even their Yuan Spirit would be affected.
The Ice Blue Palm focused on attacking from all directions. The Cloud Piercing Sword was the opposite. It focused on attacking from a single point, condensing all the energy and piercing through.
A single point and a single point had their own merits.
The huge ice blue palm was pierced through by the Cloud Piercing Sword. The Sword Light continued to pierce towards Lan Yu, but the huge ice blue palm didn't disperse. It was still heading towards Chu Mu.
Cold Qi filled the air. Chu Mu didn't want to be hit. He stopped the Cloud Piercing Sword and quickly raised the Sky Beheading Sword.
Extreme Beheading Sword!
The sword that slashed down was incomparably sharp. It cut through all toughness, and even ice was not a problem. The Ice Blue Palm was split into two by Chu Mu's sword. They fell to the left and right sides and exploded. Instantly, the ground on both sides was frozen and the ice quickly spread.
"What sword skill is this?" A question flashed through Lan Yu's mind, but it was soon drowned by killing intent.
Lan Yu was very strong. The difference between his cultivation and Chu Mu's was too great.
Sky Beheading Sword!
Star Breaking Sword!
The Sky Beheading Sword in Chu Mu's hand displayed a powerful sword skill.
After passing the Aeon Tribulation and becoming an Eternal Realm Saint, the power of his sword skills had greatly increased.
Chu Mu also realized that the sword skills on the Forest of Thousand Sword Steles in the True God Sword Sect's forbidden area, especially the top sword skills, could only be fully displayed by a Saint's power.
What was a Saint's power?
A Saint's Sword Soul, Saint's Sword Essence, and Saint's Sword Origin …
With these Saint's power, the power of the sword skills could only be described as shocking.
"Icy Finger!"
Lan Yu pointed with both hands and instantly shot out icy blue finger beams towards Chu Mu with a chilling intent.
Chu Mu's figure moved at high speed, leaving behind afterimages as he dodged the icy blue light rays.
He did not use the Sword Qi Shadow movement skill.
The Sword Qi Shadow movement skill was a combination of footwork and movement skill that he had created himself. It was very powerful, especially after his cultivation broke through to the Eternal Realm. The Sword Qi Shadow movement skill had been perfected and became even more mysterious.
The icy blue light rays were as dense as raindrops, but they could not hit Chu Mu.
The more he could not hit, the more unwilling Lan Yu was. His eyes were red, and he was about to lose his mind. There was only one thought in his mind, and that was to kill Chu Mu.
He kept flicking his ten fingers. Strands of icy blue light pierced through the air and shot out in all directions. They left countless marks on the ground in the distance and spread out, sealing the ground with ice. The cold air was biting cold.
God Slaying Sword Style!
Lan Yu only felt that his mind was being attacked, and his actions were slightly delayed. A shocking Sword Light slashed towards him, causing him to break out in cold sweat. He was almost hit.
Lan Yu was shocked and angry.
Chu Mu thought, "As expected, after becoming a Sword Saint, the Sky Piercing Saint Sword can't keep up."
He believed that every Sword Saint had the same feeling.
Perhaps the Sky Piercing Saint Sword's material was very good, and could withstand the power of a Saint without being damaged, but for a Sword Saint, it could not increase their strength. If a Sword Saint did not have a sword, they would not be able to use their full strength. There was not much difference whether they had a sword or not.
However, not every Sword Saint could afford to use a Spiritual Sword.
A Spiritual Sword was very precious.
Previously, Chu Mu had been in the Profound Sun Realm and did not fight, so he did not know the difference. Now that he was facing a strong enemy, he realized that the Sky Beheading Sword was not enough.
Especially when he was stronger, the Sky Piercing Saint Sword's weakness would be more obvious.
Since that was the case, he would use a Spiritual Sword.
With a thought, he opened his left hand and grasped the air. A sword appeared in his left hand.
The Eternal Spiritual Sword was in his hand.
Although the Sky Beheading Sword was not as smooth as before, Chu Mu did not have a second Spiritual Sword, so he could only use it for now.
Lan Yu executed the Dual Sword Art, and his attack power rose sharply. One sword broke through, while the other attacked. As Lan Yu dodged, his Essential Aura Shield was cut open. His robe was also torn, and he was almost hit by the sword.
Lan Yu was shocked and angry. The scarlet in his eyes receded a little, and he regained some of his rationality.
Looking at Chu Mu, who was holding a sword in each hand, Lan Yu made a prompt decision and quickly distanced himself.
Almost every Sword Saint was an expert in close combat. Although Lan Yu also used a sword and practiced sword arts, he was not a Sword Saint. He cultivated both sword arts and spells at the same time. His strength was mainly in spells, and his sword arts were only supplementary.
Although he had mastered some close combat spells, he was still better at long-range spells.
