Zhou Wen was somewhat surprised when he saw that the person was Xia Xuanyue.
The shocking scene of Xia Xuanyue having her ancient sword forcefully snatched away by Demonic Neonate was still fresh in his mind.
Could it be that Xia Xuanyue knows that I snatched the ancient sword and is here to settle scores with me? Zhou Wen originally wanted to explain, but Xia Xuanyue's sword intent was just too powerful. Her movement technique was just too fast, giving him no chance to explain.
"There's nothing wrong with that. Let's win first. Those with bigger fists are in the right." Zhou Wen understood this well and didn't wish to explain. He used his newly comprehended Flying Immortal Stance to fight Xia Xuanyue.
Xia Xuanyue was many times stronger than a Fairy. She immediately put immense pressure on Zhou Wen. Zhou Wen wasn't satisfied to begin with, but under this pressure, he felt an indescribable sense of joy. He displayed the Flying Immortal Stance he had comprehended.
Xia Xuanyue's movement technique was a secret technique of the Xia family. It was called Path to Snatching Heaven. There was no path in the world, and if the living beings in the world wanted to survive, they had to snatch a path from the heavens themselves. That was why the strange name of Path to Snatching Heaven came about.
Fight for living space with all living things. Either you die or I perish. This was the first sentence of the Path to Snatching Heaven's opening chapter. Therefore, the Xia family's Path to Snatching Heaven could be said to be a fight for every inch of land. I walk your path, leaving you with no path to take. The Path to Snatching Heaven vividly displayed the word 'snatch'.
Zhou Wen felt happy in the beginning, but it didn't take long for the carefree feeling to vanish without a trace. He felt even more stifled than before.
Xia Xuanyue's movement technique was just too domineering. Zhou Wen often only used half of his movement technique before Xia Xuanyue sealed off the subsequent changes, leaving him no choice but to switch to another stance.
And this was only the beginning. Xia Xuanyue's movement technique was like an unbridled bandit, constantly suppressing Zhou Wen, preventing him from using a complete move. Often, he would only be able to use his movement technique halfway before he had no choice but to stop and change his stance.
The Flying Immortal Stance didn't have any immortal aura. Even the ethereal feeling vanished. The stumbling made one feel extremely uncomfortable.
Even bystanders felt aggrieved, much less Zhou Wen himself.
However, Zhou Wen was the kind of person who knew when to advance. The more pressure Xia Xuanyue gave him, the higher his fighting spirit became. He had to resolve the problem.
The two of them fought silently in the cave. The space Zhou Wen could move in was constantly squeezed. This was the first time Zhou Wen had encountered such a domineering movement technique. He even felt like he had nowhere to go.
If it were someone with a weak will, they would probably give up on such a battle and use brute force to fight Xia Xuanyue to the death.
However, Zhou Wen didn't do that. He continued searching for a way to break through Xia Xuanyue's suppression.
Xia Xuanyue became more and more astonished. Zhou Wen was much younger than her, about ten years old. He was about the same age as Xia Bing and company.
However, Zhou Wen's determination was far greater than what Xia Bing and company could compare with.
Under her movement technique, even Xia Bing, who was familiar with the Path to Snatching Heaven, could only last for a few minutes at most before her mental state fluctuated.
However, after fighting her for so long, Zhou Wen remained highly focused. He constantly tried all sorts of methods to compete with her. He didn't retreat or risk his life irresponsibly. Under the constant suppression, he was able to maintain such a firm mentality. It truly surprised Xia Xuanyue.
It's no wonder the An family places so much importance on him. Just this firm willpower is incomparable to the average person. Resources can be obtained through means. Primordial Energy Arts, Companion Beasts, and the like can be slowly obtained, but if a person's willpower isn't firm, it will be difficult for them to achieve great things no matter how many resources they have. If this Zhou Wen doesn't perish, he will definitely be a candidate to reach the Mythical stage in the future, Xia Xuanyue marveled inwardly.
Under Xia Xuanyue's suppression, Zhou Wen's Flying Immortal Stance constantly improved, becoming more and more transcendent.
Zhou Wen's heart became calmer and calmer, and the pressure Xia Xuanyue could give him decreased.
When Xia Xuanyue saw that her Path to Snatching Heaven movement technique could reduce the pressure on Zhou Wen, she increased the strength of her sword technique, immediately increasing the pressure on Zhou Wen.
However, this pressure didn't last long. Zhou Wen gradually stabilized the situation. His movement technique became more and more extraordinary, as though he was soaring into the sky. It was completely different from his previous Flying movement technique.
Xia Xuanyue's eyes turned serious. Xia Xuanyue, who hadn't used her Life Soul all this while, used it as well.
A vertical eye appeared at Xia Xuanyue's glabella. The eye didn't have a pupil, and its interior was as smooth as a mirror.
The moment Xia Xuanyue's Life Soul appeared, Zhou Wen, who had already stabilized the situation, immediately fell into a disadvantage.
This time, Zhou Wen felt like he was lacking in strength. No matter how he changed his movement technique, no matter how perfectly he used the Flying Immortal Stance, he was constantly suppressed by Xia Xuanyue.
One sword and one person, forcing Zhou Wen to retreat repeatedly. Even his retreat path had been sealed, making him feel like a trapped beast.
No … It still doesn't work … Zhou Wen realized that no matter how he changed his movement technique, Xia Xuanyue seemed to be able to predict his movements. She sealed off all his possibilities, making him feel like a bird in a cage or a monkey in Buddha's palm. He couldn't escape no matter what.
This pressure was different from fighting a powerful Mythical creature. When fighting a Mythical creature, one could only do their best despite knowing that they were no match for it.
However, when fighting Xia Xuanyue, even though he felt that his strength wasn't inferior to hers, he felt restrained. It was as though he was bound by countless invisible threads, preventing him from unleashing his strength.
This feeling of being aggrieved was even more uncomfortable than not having the ability to fight.
The Slaughterer Life Soul augmented Zhou Wen's Strength and Speed, but it was unable to allow him to break through Xia Xuanyue's attack. As he retreated again and again, Zhou Wen was forced deep into the cave. Behind him was the stone wall, and there was no way out.
Xia Xuanyue's oppression continued. Even Xia Xuanyue had to admit that even among her peers, there weren't many who could last so long under her sword.
This wasn't a matter of strength, but the sense of oppression. It was easy for people to give up on themselves and have thoughts of risking their lives.
And in a battle between true experts, every single detail would be calculated. The so-called eruption and risking one's life didn't actually exist. The more rash one was, the more flaws one would reveal, and the easier it was to die.
In an extreme disadvantage, the best solution wasn't to risk one's life, but to calm oneself down. Even when one was bleeding and injured, one had to maintain a calm mind and think of a way to resolve the problem. That was the only way out.
Under such pressure, Zhou Wen had already pushed the Flying Immortal Stance to its limits, but he was still unable to resist Xia Xuanyue. This made him involuntarily think of the fairy who had broken out of the door.
Perhaps only such a movement technique can break through the other party's suppression. Zhou Wen's eyes burned as countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
