It wasn't until Imagawa Yoshimoto was right in front of him that Yang Rui realized that he had underestimated his opponent's ability. Imagawa Yoshimoto's seemingly simple move made Yang Rui feel as if he could not dodge it.
"Keng!"
"Keng!"
"Keng!"
However, Yang Rui had no intention of dodging from the start. Three consecutive sounds of metal clashing rang out, and in the blink of an eye, Yang Rui had received three consecutive heavy blows from Imagawa Yoshimoto.
Imagawa Yoshimoto's three attacks made Yang Rui look at him in a new light. Even though Yang Rui had used the Crimson Emperor Sword Technique at the same time, it still took a lot of effort for him to receive Imagawa Yoshimoto's three attacks.
In an instant, Yang Rui could already determine that Imagawa Yoshimoto's strength was comparable to that of a famous general from the Three Kingdoms era!
Based on the three attacks just now, even if Imagawa Yoshimoto was compared to the Three Kingdoms era, he would still be ranked among the famous generals.
It could be said that Imagawa Yoshimoto's locking skills and powerful attacks had put a lot of pressure on Yang Rui from the start.
However, Yang Rui's strength was already comparable to that of a famous general from the Three Kingdoms era. Whether it was his mental cultivation method, techniques, or equipment, they were all enough to support Yang Rui and Imagawa Yoshimoto's battle.
"Keng!"
"Keng!"
"…"
In the blink of an eye, Yang Rui and Imagawa Yoshimoto had exchanged more than ten blows. Imagawa Yoshimoto had the upper hand at the start, but now, the two of them seemed to be evenly matched. This surprised the other generals who were blocking the Luo camp.
They were very clear about Imagawa Yoshimoto's strength. It could not be said that there was no one among them who was comparable to their own famous generals, but there were only one or two of them, and they were only on par. No one could beat Imagawa Yoshimoto.
It was because of his confidence in his own strength that Imagawa Yoshimoto proposed a one-on-one duel in front of the formation. Now that it was a standstill, the Imagawa clan's generals were all surprised.
Even the generals in Yang Rui's camp were the same. The Four Yellow Turban Generals were fine as they had seen Yang Rui's skills. At this time, they were just amazed by Yang Rui's rapid progress.
Zhang He and Tracer Dragon Soul, in particular, were even more surprised by Yang Rui's performance. Their surprise was even reflected in their eyes.
Of course, the one who was most surprised was Imagawa Yoshimoto.
As one of the parties involved in the battle, Imagawa Yoshimoto was initially prepared to take down his opponent in one fell swoop. However, after the battle, he realized that it wasn't as easy as he thought it would be. As the battle progressed, Imagawa Yoshimoto even felt that he could only maintain a draw.
Imagawa Yoshimoto's fighting style was a typical example of the Japanese civilization. Putting aside his mantra, his techniques secretly hid his understanding of a certain attribute of the five elements. He could lock on, extract, and borrow one or more of these attributes. At the same time, he was most particular about explosive power.
For example, Yang Rui felt that Imagawa Yoshimoto's first few attacks were very heavy, so much so that Yang Rui judged that his opponent had the strength of a famous general from the Three Kingdoms era. Moreover, he was one of the more outstanding ones.
However, as the battle continued, Yang Rui gradually realized that Imagawa Yoshimoto's attack power was not stable. Not every attack was as threatening as the first few. Moreover, looking at Imagawa Yoshimoto's attacks, he felt that his opponent was a bit like Cheng Yaojin's Three Axes.
All in all, Imagawa Yoshimoto's attacking style once again made Yang Rui feel that it was simple. Of course, the premise of this judgment was that one had to have the strength to fight against him or be able to avoid his opponent's critical attacks.
Clang!
Clang!
"…"
Kacha!
The battle between the two entered a stalemate. For a while, it seemed that neither side could do anything to the other. However, in the midst of the fierce metal collision, a harsh kacha sound suddenly rang out, causing everyone's hearts to clench.
Chi! Pu!
In the blink of an eye, before anyone could react, they heard two more sounds of weapons piercing into flesh.
At the same time as the sound was heard, one of the people in the field rolled quickly into the canyon, and the other person followed closely behind. However, he was stopped by three figures who appeared at the same time.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. The one-on-one battle in everyone's minds suddenly took a huge turn!
The person who rolled back was Imagawa Yoshimoto. Yang Rui instantly pulled his sword diagonally across his chest and stabbed him in the back!
The development of this situation began with the nameless three-foot sword in Yang Rui's hand.
In fact, when Yang Rui accepted the challenge from the beginning, he was fully equipped. He was wearing the Golden Emperor Set, Golden Roc Inner Armor, Golden Tiger Leg Guards, Python Skin Boots, Neptune Holy Grail, and other top-grade equipment. It could be said that his entire body was dazzling.
The Golden Emperor Set came with three major skills: [Emperor's Aura], [Emperor's Aura], and [Emperor's Wrath]. The armor came with the skill [Emperor's Aura], which gave absolute defense. The helmet came with the skill [Emperor's Aura], which nullified the opponent's attack once. The weapon came with the skill [Emperor's Wrath], which doubled the original attack power.
The Golden Tiger Leg Guards, Soul, came with the skill [Tiger's Cage], which was a half-body absolute defense skill. The Python Skin Boots, Soul, came with the skill [Python Movement], which was a half-body absolute evasion skill.
The Neptune Holy Grail was a fragment of the Barbarian Shrimp Tribe's sacred weapon. It came with the skill [Indestructible], which was an invincible defense skill.
Yang Rui already had several life-saving skills like [Absolute Defense], [Absolute Evasion], and [Absolute Evasion]. Each skill lasted for three hours.
It could be said that Yang Rui was fully prepared from the very beginning. He also had the ability to fight with his life on the line. This was one of the trump cards that allowed him to remain fearless even when he was at a disadvantage in terms of numbers.
Of course, Yang Rui did not use the Golden Emperor Sword, Soul, when facing Imagawa Yoshimoto. Instead, he held the nameless three-foot-long sword in his hand. This was the reason why Yang Rui chose to fight Imagawa Yoshimoto head-on.
Yang Rui's head-on fighting style was effective. Although he did not know what level of weapon Imagawa Yoshimoto's Tachi was, it was clear that the nameless three-foot-long sword was much harder and sharper.
After Yang Rui and Imagawa Yoshimoto had fought for more than 40 rounds, the nameless Sanchi Qingfeng had managed to break Imagawa Yoshimoto's Tachi with a single slash. This was exactly what had happened before.
Although Yang Rui was not sure if the nameless three-foot-long sword would be able to do its job, he had been expecting it. Therefore, the moment Imagawa Yoshimoto's Tachi broke, he succeeded twice in a row.
Imagawa Yoshimoto was good. Even though his weapon was broken, he was still able to move a few steps in the nick of time. It was similar to the Sky Demon Ninja's Water Release. Although Yang Rui could grasp his trajectory, he could only barely keep up with his speed.
Imagawa Yoshimoto dodged Yang Rui's most fatal attack.
