At this moment, a formation suddenly appeared beneath Yao Chongtian's feet!
A wave of evil Qi roared in all directions like a raging wave, its power was extraordinary.
This defensive counterattack caused Ruo Yu's sword to falter for a moment.
But … it was only for a moment.
A second later, the sword aura rose and shattered the evil aura that was blocking Ruo Yu's sword.
Yao Chongtian was shocked when he saw this. He quickly grabbed the Yao Qi Staff beside him to block the attack.
Ping!
The weapons clashed and a loud sound rang out.
The clash between the sword aura and the evil aura created a turbulent flow of energy.
This clash caused Ruo Yu to take three steps back. As for Yao Chongtian … his feet left the ground and he flew back a full thirty feet.
At this moment, the arrogant Yao Chongtian opened his eyes. His expression was serious. "What kind of power is this?"
The energy released by Ruo Yu's sword … was not the true meaning of the Way of the Sword, nor was it the holy aura of Buddhism. It was also not pure strength … but her sword aura had the characteristics of all three.
Yao Chongtian had never met such an opponent before. The special attributes of the traveler from another world had clearly exceeded his understanding. It caused his heart to waver.
"Are you asking me?" Ruo Yu replied in a low voice. "I'm sorry. I practice many techniques, and each of them is from a different lineage. I don't know how to classify the 'power' that I'm using now." She paused for a moment. "I only know that … this power is just right to counter your evil spirit power."
As she spoke, she had already shortened the distance between her and her opponent and adjusted her posture.
Before she finished speaking, she had already made her move …
Ruo Yu's figure instantly turned into multiple afterimages and surrounded her opponent.
In a breath's time, dozens of sword aura as fast as lightning attacked Yao Chongtian from all directions … and each sword aura was as strong as a thousand pounds.
The Butterfly Spirit Godly Shadow was a high-level fighting technique recorded in the Dragon Slayer Chapter of the Seven Ghost Valley Chapters. It was also Ruo Yu's strongest single-target attack skill other than [Double Pole Kill].
Based on Ruo Yu's past records, aside from Boss-level characters, any NPC that took this attack head on would at least be heavily injured.
Without a doubt, this record … would continue in this battle.
"Ugh …" Although Yao Chongtian had ensured that he did not suffer any fatal injuries by releasing his Yao Qi and brandishing his staff to block the attacks … he had still endured more than ten sword strikes in this round of attacks. His injuries were quite severe.
"Damn it … I actually let this nameless junior gain the upper hand …" Yao Chongtian grumbled in his heart. At the same time, he took a big step back and leaped into the air, once again widening the distance between him and Ruo Yu.
"Do you think you can escape?" Ruo Yu didn't stop after she withdrew her attack. She raised her sword and continued to attack.
In terms of speed, she was much faster than Yao Chongtian. In terms of moves, as a swordsman, she was naturally more than a level higher than the demonic monk.
In this battle, what Yao Chongtian could rely on … was his century-old foundation and the ability to summon evil spirits. However … Ruo Yu, who had the title of [Thousand Evil Slayer], was the nemesis of evil spirits. Her [Holy Bestowment] consumed evil spirits as EXP. Against an opponent of Yao Chongtian's attributes, it was "outstanding".
It could be said that … in this battle, Ruo Yu had the advantage in all aspects. If she wanted to, she could have ended it quickly.
But … she didn't do that.
On the surface, Ruo Yu was indeed aggressive. Whether it was in terms of words or actions, she was relentless in her attacks. But in reality … she only used 70% of her strength in each of her moves.
For example, in the [Butterfly Spirit Godly Shadow] just now, if Ruo Yu had used her full strength, Yao Chongtian would have been beaten to the brink of death. There was only one reason why she had secretly held back and created this kind of aggressive illusion, and that was ….
"Junior! Don't push me too far! " On the other side, Yao Chongtian, who had seen Ruo Yu chase after him with sword in hand, quickly formed a demonic seal in the air and roared, "Evil spirits of the world, heed my call!"
With that roar, the evil spirits circling in the air rushed down towards Ruo Yu.
"Hmph …" Ruo Yu saw this and snorted coldly, the corners of her mouth rising slightly.
In that instant, there was only one person in the entire martial competition venue … who understood the meaning behind her expression.
"So that's how it is …" Feng Bujue looked at Ruo Yu in the arena and thought to himself, "She wants to use Yao Chongtian's ability to summon evil spirits to increase the number of Spirit Severing Saint Bestowments." When he thought of this, he smiled faintly, "She's maximizing the benefits while holding the advantage. She's not arrogant when she has the advantage, but she's not rash when she has the advantage … Such strategy, such calmness … if she were in any other society, she'd be more than qualified to be a captain …"
Just as Brother Jue was lost in thought, the dozens of evil spirits quickly flew down and surrounded Ruo Yu.
And Ruo Yu … had been waiting for this moment.
See!
Her figure spun, and the shadow of her sword followed.
Thousands of flowers fell like flowers, and thousands of scattered lotus flowers bloomed.
With the [Falling Flowers Scattering Flowers], he killed all the Evil Spirits and shattered them into pieces of light.
"Hah —" At the same time, Yao Chongtian, who was more than ten meters away, suddenly landed on the ground. Taking advantage of the few seconds that Ruo Yu was delayed by the evil spirits, he had already prepared his next move, "Demonic Legacy ~ Ten Directional Seal!"
As he shouted, Yao Chongtian waved the Demonic Aura Staff in his hand twice before stabbing it into the ground.
In the next second, he retracted his arms, crossed his palms, and pushed them forward!
In an instant, ten layers of evil energy flew out from his palms in the shape of a swastika. They soared into the sky and fell towards Ruo Yu.
"Ignorant swordsman, prepare to die!" After unleashing his ultimate move, Yao Chongtian immediately declared that he would kill her. It seemed … he was very confident in the power of his move.
However, his attack this time … ended up hitting nothing but air.
Boom —
With a loud explosion, a huge swastika appeared on the stage. The ten layers of tyrannical energy had all landed on the stage, but … Ruo Yu's figure had already appeared somewhere else.
