The cold wind arrived in an instant. Shui Yunlan, whose nerves were already on the brink of collapse, took a wrong step and the blade flashing with a cold light whizzed past the tip of his nose. The speed of the blade caused Shui Yunlan to involuntarily break out in a cold sweat as he dodged. This was not the first time he had fought against the Maiden of Sky Punishment, but it was definitely the first time he had fought against her alone. What he endured was a heavy pressure that he had never felt before. It was so heavy that his heart twitched uncomfortably.
"Aqua Jade Heavenly Essence!!" Facing the Daughter of Heavenly Punishment, there was the possibility of losing his life at any moment. Shui Yunlan did not dare to hold anything back. Following a loud shout, the aura of a god was released from his body along with a wave of cold and heavy pressure. A thick layer of ice crystals actually formed on his palms in an instant … It was not ice crystals, but the incomparably hard water jade that was formed from the Water Jade Technique.
Whoosh!!
The water jades in his hands shot out, shooting straight towards Oculum's petite and exquisite body. These were not just two simple pieces of water jades. Instead, they were continuously shot out from Shui Yunlan's hands, one piece after another. Their speed also became faster and faster. Gradually, they began to fall mercilessly towards Oculum's body like hailstones in a storm.
Oculum had already dodged the moment the Water Jade Heavenly Essence began. However, as she moved, Shui Yunlan's hands moved as well. The shooting water jades firmly locked onto her body. A cold light flashed in Oculum's starry eyes. She no longer dodged. Instead, she charged straight towards Shui Yunlan's Water Jade Heavenly Essence …
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh …
The water jades were as fast as a storm. However, the speed at which Oculum waved her hands was even faster. In this storm, her Sky Punishment Blade formed a blood-red net as she waved it, cutting the incoming water jades one by one. Although the water jades were fast, the speed at which she waved her hands was even faster. The water jades all collided with the Sky Punishment Blade. After being cut into two, they turned into energy and disappeared in mid-air. Not a single one was missed.
As for Oculum, she quickly closed in on the cutting. Then, a black light flashed on her right hand. The Sky Punishment Blade drew a line of blood in the air.
Shui Yunlan's "Water Jade Heavenly Essence" stopped. A deep wound appeared on his left hand. He let out a muffled groan, and took a step forward. His right hand clenched into a fist, and the Water Jade Art quickly condensed in his hand. His entire right arm was covered in a layer of light blue. Then, it turned blue, dark blue, and finally, it turned into an ice-blue color like that of an ice crystal. Then, he launched his attack towards Tong Xin.
The mutated arm struck Tong Xin's body with a cold wind. Tong Xin didn't have enough time to retract the Sky Punishment Blade that she had just swung out. Her slender left palm pressed against his fist. Their hands hadn't even come into contact, but the terrifying energy had already collided in the air, bringing with it a muffled sound that made people's ears ring. The sky darkened for a moment, and the temperature of the surrounding air plummeted in an instant, before rising again at the same rate. Oculum's body somersaulted nimbly in mid-air, striking towards Shui Yunlan again. Shui Yunlan's arm trembled. In the collision with Oculum's power, a large portion of his water jade power had been forced back. This caused him to temporarily lose feeling in his arm. His body stumbled backwards, his chest churning. In this short exchange, he clearly knew that compared to twenty years ago, he had made a huge breakthrough. However, he was still a far cry from the incomparably terrifying Lady of Sky Punishment of twenty years ago.
He reached out with his right hand and pulled out the soft sword that was wrapped around his waist. This was the first time this water jade sword had seen the light of day in the past ten years. As soon as it appeared, it drew out a splendor that rippled like water. It collided with Oculum's Sky Punishment Blade. Clang clang clang clang … In the time it took to take a breath, the sword and the blade had collided several times. However, how could the divine weapons of the Tianchen Continent compare to the divine weapons of the Godly Continent? In addition, Oculum's power had already surpassed Shui Yunlan's. Even though he was not at the Godly Realm, he was not too far off. Shui Yunlan's weapons clashed with hers. Every time they collided, he could feel a dark power coming from the point of collision. That power had a terrifying twisting power, causing his entire body to feel more and more uncomfortable. As his heart shivered, he also took a step back.
Clang!
An irresistible dark power came from his hand, causing his right arm to tremble. The water jade sword almost fell out of his hand. Although Shui Yunlan was shocked, he did not panic. He simply let the water jade sword fly out of his hand along with the force. Both of his hands reached out. With a flash of blue light, an indestructible water jade wall had already formed in front of him. Compared to the Northern Emperor Sect's Infernal Spirit Technique's powerful attack, Nanhuangzong's water jade technique's defensive and restraining abilities were superior to its offensive abilities. Moreover, it was superior by more than just a little. The water jade wall was the most commonly used defensive technique in the water jade technique. It had the defense of a jade stone.
However, even the water jade defense created by the Godly Level Water Jade Technique could not be preserved under the Sky Punishment Blade. The Sky Punishment Blade pierced through the water jade wall that had just formed. With a movement of the blade, a dark power burst forth. The water jade wall shattered like a layer of broken glass. The power of the Sky Punishment Blade, which shone with a cold blood-red light, did not diminish. Following Oculum's body, it flew straight towards the center of Shui Yunlan's eyebrows.
In a head-on battle, he was completely suppressed by Oculum. However, even the defense of the water jade technique was easily pierced through by her. This could not help but surprise him. Caught unprepared, he had no other choice. His body retreated at the fastest speed possible. However, how could he compare to Oculum's speed? The blood-red tip of the blade followed him like a shadow, getting closer and closer to the center of his eyebrows …
"Ha!!"
A loud roar shook the surroundings. Sand and dust flew up from the hard ground because of this loud roar. A tall figure rushed out from the south. He leapt high into the air like an eagle. His hands crossed and an ice-blue water jade nearly two meters in diameter formed in front of him as he moved. It flew towards Oculum, who was about to hurt Shui Yunlan.
A heavy pressure came down from above. Oculum suddenly turned around and stopped her forward momentum. She swung her right hand. The Sky Punishment Blade followed the swing of her right hand and drew a thin blood-red line in the air. It pierced through the huge water jade. There was an explosion and the water jade exploded in the air. It turned into a body of energy and dissipated. The man in green floated down from the sky and landed on the other side of Oculum. He and Shui Yunlan were sandwiched in the middle.
Shui Yunlan and the Maiden of Sky Punishment had not exchanged blows for long. The situation had become one-sided. The people of Nanhuangzong found it hard to accept. Now that they saw the man in green, they could finally relax. If the Sect Leader joined forces with him, they would definitely be able to defeat the Maiden of Sky Punishment.
"She is the Maiden of Sky Punishment?" The man in green was obviously old. He looked to be in his seventies. Looking at the unbelievably cute petite girl who was emitting a cold aura, he was shocked. Anyone would have the same reaction when they saw the Maiden of Sky Punishment for the first time. However, he was not an ordinary person. His face immediately darkened. "The Maiden of Sky Punishment, you really live up to your reputation."
No one knew the toughness of the water jade better than them. The huge water jade he had formed was to force her to dodge. He did not expect her to pierce through it. Beneath his calm expression, his heart was shaking violently.
"Not bad." Shui Yunlan adjusted her breathing and nodded. "Godfather, I know you have never joined forces with others to fight against an enemy. However, it is not embarrassing for you to join forces to fight against her today."
The man in green was Shui Xuanfeng. His real identity was Shui Yunlan's biological father. After the incident that year, Shui Xuanfeng put "righteousness before family" and "Shui Yunlan" was punished. However, no one in the sect blamed him. Instead, they praised him for his righteousness. Also, because Shui Yuntian and Shui Yunlan looked very similar, "Shui Yuntian" took the initiative to recognize Shui Xuanfeng, who "could never see his beloved son", as his godfather. This continued until today. He was one of the six god-level masters in Nanhuangzong.
Shui Xuanfeng nodded solemnly. Then, he shook his head and said, "The Sect Leader's safety is related to the safety and future of the entire Nanhuangzong. There cannot be any mishaps. How can we recklessly fight against such a dangerous person?" His gaze swept across the crowd that had already retreated far away. He shouted in a low voice, "You bastards, how can you let the Sect Leader take such a risk!"
The surrounding Nanhuangzong masters were ashamed. None of them replied. When the enemy invaded, they should have fought with their lives. However, against the Lady of Tianfa, they would only be cannon fodder if they charged forward. The battle between her and the Sect Leader seemed ordinary, but it was not something they could interfere with.
"We can't blame them. Even if they attack, they will only increase the number of casualties. In the face of the current situation, we must do our best to preserve our strength. Although I am no match for her, I will definitely be able to hold out until you arrive. "Shui Yunlan said solemnly.
"Hehehehe, Xuanfeng is right. The Sect Leader's safety is more important than the heavens. Just leave the Lady of Tianfa to us."
A drawn-out voice came from afar. It floated as if it had arrived at the edge of the sky. Everyone in the surroundings felt as if this voice was ringing in their ears. A comfortable and warm feeling rose in their hearts along with this voice. After hearing this voice, everyone's faces lit up with joy.
"Elder Tian!"
"Elder Tian is finally here. I can finally be at ease now."
"Hehe, if Elder Tian and Uncle Feng join forces, they will definitely be invincible. However, why is this Lady of Tianfa here? "
Elder Tian's appearance was like a reassuring pill to the people of Nanhuangzong, dispelling their worries. It was clear to see how highly respected he was in Nanhuangzong. After they had put down their worries, they finally began to think of an important question: Why would the Lady of Tianfa be here?
The only explanation was that Ye Wuchen had been brought here and had attracted this malefic star.
An old man with the air of a transcendent being floated down from the sky like an immortal. He smiled warmly and landed not far away from Oculum. His gaze stopped on her and the horsetail whisk in his hand flung out a white shadow. His appearance was accompanied by an extremely subtle aura. Even the flow of the air became gentle and soothing because of him.
"Subdue her first and then explain everything slowly." Sensing the chilling murderous intent and dark power of the young girl before him, Elder Tian did not pursue the matter. After he had finished speaking calmly, a layer of blue light floated on the surface of his body. In the next moment, the blue light turned into a water jade and covered his body, forming his first strong defense.
"Hahahaha, my Nanhuangzong has not been so lively for a long time. Since even Old Man Tian has been forced to come out, how can I be left out?"
This voice was different from Elder Tian's soothing and soothing voice. Although this voice was also old, there was a sense of forthrightness and roughness in it. As the voice fell, the person had already descended impatiently. This was an old man dressed in a brown robe. He had a ferocious-looking face with his white hairs standing on end and a face full of white beard. He carefully sized up the young girl in black who was surrounded by the four of them in a four-legged formation. He then said loudly, "What a good Lady of Tianfa, to actually appear in our Nanhuangzong. But it's good too, we can finally have some fun in our peaceful lives. Xuan Feng, you can rest assured now. With the four of us joining forces, there is no one in this world that we cannot defeat. If this Lady of Tianfa still managed to injure the Sect Leader, we would not have the face to continue living in this world. "
