In the vision of the Hao siblings, the two figures inside the Spirit Array were clearly attacking each other with Imperial Artifacts, because the two were standing at a certain distance from each other, with ink-colored streaks crossing back and forth between them.
In the Spirit Array, in the stone forest, Lu Ye and Yuan Guang were about three hundred and fifty meters apart. Two streams of light shuttled back and forth between the two, occasionally colliding and sputtering dazzling sparks.
At this moment, Yuan Guang was shocked because he had a clear understanding of his situation.
He was actually pulled into an Inner Spirit Array. Thinking back to what had happened just now, it should have happened when he was temporarily blinded by the strong light. At that time, although he had activated his Imperial Artifact and Sword Qi in time to protect himself, the other party was obviously prepared. Moreover, he was only a Ninth Order Spirit Stream Realm cultivator who cultivated an Earth Grade Secret Art. How could he resist the power of this Spirit Array?
The situation was very bad!
Since it was an Inner Spirit Array, in addition to the enemy in front of him, there must be someone else activating it. Just now, he heard the young man in front of him shout something like "Yi Yi". In other words, he had at least two enemies. One was the young man in front of him, and the other was Yi Yi, who was activating the Spirit Array …
The young man in front of him was only a Seventh Order cultivator, but after just a moment of confrontation, he realized that the other party was difficult to deal with. Not to mention the instantaneous burst of speed and power, the power of his Imperial Artifact was not something an ordinary Seventh Order cultivator could match.
Whether it was speed, distance, or power, he was not much worse than a Ninth Order cultivator.
If the other party only had this much ability, then he could deal with him, but the key problem now was that he had to guard against "Yi Yi". The other party would undoubtedly secretly make some moves.
He did not know that the reason Lu Ye used the Spirit Array to deal with him was to fight him one-on-one.
In the Mirage Realm, he had killed some Ninth Order cultivators who had rushed out of the fog. He wanted to see the difference between a Ninth Order cultivator in the Mirage Realm and a real Ninth Order cultivator. This was also the best way to test his own strength.
Moreover, he wanted to cooperate with Yi Yi to use the Nine World Diagram. Although he had given it to Yi Yi after obtaining it from Madam Yun, he had never used it against an enemy. Using it more often would allow him to familiarize himself with this Spirit Treasure.
Moreover, with Yi Yi's current strength, maintaining the Spirit Array for a short period of time was not a big problem, but if she really wanted to secretly make some moves … she could, but her strength would quickly run out.
In short, Yuan Guang was worrying too much.
As the two Imperial Artifacts clashed, the sound of clanking rang out continuously. Lu Ye strapped his long saber to his waist and stared at the air. It looked like he was going all out, but in reality, he was observing the difference between his own Imperial Artifact and the enemy.
There was still some gap. According to Lu Ye's estimation, the power of his Artifact Manipulation was similar to that of an average Eighth Order master, slightly worse than a Ninth Order master. This could be seen from the frequency at which the two streams of light collided. At first, Lu Ye was able to cope, but gradually, he was suppressed. His Artifact Manipulation was only capable of parrying these attacks, barely able to fight back.
While he was still observing, Yuan Guang on the other side had already made up his mind. He didn't care about anyone else and would just kill this young man in front of him first.
A clear and melodious sword cry rang out. Yuan Guang's spiritual energy surged as he slashed with the longsword in his hand. He shouted, "Three Thousand Sword Flow Blades!"
Chi chi chi …
Several streaks of sword light slashed towards Lu Ye from a distance of more than three hundred meters at an incredible speed. At the same time, Yuan Guang himself was also rushing towards Lu Ye, swinging the long sword in his hand repeatedly.
The number of sword lights increased!
In his mind, the young man in front of him was' wholeheartedly 'urging the power of his Artifact Manipulation, so it was impossible for him to block his attacks. If this young man was distracted, then that would be perfect. His Artifact Manipulation wasn't Lu Ye's opponent, so once he was distracted, it would definitely weaken him even more. At that time, Lu Ye would show him his true strength.
Being able to use other means to kill the enemy while using Artifact Manipulation was the basic quality of a Ninth Order Spirit Stream Realm cultivator.
After the layers of sword lights, Yuan Guang's figure dashed forward, quickly closing the distance of more than three hundred zhang.
Lu Ye, who was watching the two Artifact Manipulation, lowered his eyes, his sharp gaze seemingly able to penetrate the sword lights and see Yuan Guang hiding behind them.
Patting his storage bag, Lu Ye sent out a stream of light. It was extremely fast, and with a series of clanging sounds, the sword lights were broken apart.
“！” A shocked expression appeared on Yuan Guang's face as he waved the long sword in his hand to block the stream of light.
[Dual Artifact Manipulation?]
Lu Ye almost wondered if he was seeing things.
Even if an ordinary Seventh Order cultivator was able to use Artifact Manipulation, they would have to devote all of their attention to it and wouldn't be able to do anything else.
Using Artifact Manipulation required extremely strong control over one's Spirit Qi, and at the same time, one's mind must be strong enough to be able to do two things at once.
If one wanted to use Artifact Manipulation, they would at least need to switch to a Heaven Grade Secret Art. Moreover, not every cultivator who switched to a Heaven Grade Secret Art could do it.
Using Artifact Manipulation seemed very natural, but in fact, it depended on one's talent. Moreover, the more Artifact Manipulation was, the greater the burden on one's body would be.
At the Spirit Stream Realm, only Li Ba Xian had cultivated Artifact Manipulation to the extreme. It was rumored that he could control a hundred flying swords at the same time, but Lu Ye didn't know if that was true or false.
Apart from him, even those Ninth Order cultivators who switched to a Heaven Grade Secret Art wouldn't be able to control many Spirit Artifacts. The more Spirit Artifacts there were, the more their power would be dispersed, so it was better to concentrate it.
But what did he see? A Seventh Order cultivator was actually controlling two Spirit Artifacts!
Moreover, the power of each Artifact Manipulation was about the same. In other words, there was no dispersion of power due to using two Artifact Manipulation at the same time.
His plan to surprise and kill had failed, but before he could marvel at the other's talent, Yuan Guang immediately calmed his mind and flicked the sword in his hand. Occasionally, he would send out Sword Qi to cut down the streams of light lingering around him.
He was a Ninth Order cultivator, so if the other party wanted to use Artifact Manipulation to kill him, he must be dreaming!
Just as he was thinking this, Lu Ye suddenly walked towards him step by step.
[It can't be …] A shocking thought appeared in Yuan Guang's mind, but he quickly rejected it. [It's impossible! Using Artifact Manipulation at the same time is already exaggerated enough. This little brat's mind is already exhausted, so it's impossible for him to do anything else. He's only doing this to put more pressure on me!]
The oncoming blade completely shattered the ridiculous idea in his mind.
It wasn't until this moment that Yuan Guang realized that a Seventh Order cultivator daring to fight him like this wasn't without reason. While using Artifact Manipulation at the same time, he could also fight in close quarters!
In the Chaotic Stone Forest, streams of light shuttled back and forth, and figures crisscrossed. Ding ding dang dang sounds constantly rang out. As soon as they clashed, Yuan Guang was suppressed and forced to retreat.
It wasn't that he wasn't strong enough, but that this Seventh Order boy's methods were too strange. Not only did he have to guard against the other party's attacks, he also had to guard against the streams of light lingering around him. Moreover, the other party's long blade was sometimes light and sometimes heavy, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, making him overwhelmed.
Most importantly, the other party's blade was a bit too sharp. He was accidentally cut just now, and the luster of the Artifact Armour he was wearing dimmed greatly, giving him a fright.
He had spent a lot of Spirit Stones to buy this Artifact Armour from the Heaven Secret Treasure House. Its defense was excellent, and even a Ninth Order cultivator wouldn't be able to break it.
But after being cut by the other party, he could clearly feel his Artifact Armour wailing.
There was no sun in the Nine Worlds Picture, but there was light. Moreover, the Chaotic Stone Forest didn't cover a large area, only a few kilometres in radius. It was the smallest of the nine terrains.
In the entire small space, other than the stone forest, which was the same as the terrain in the real world, the sky and even the surroundings of the terrain were surging with black halos. It was as if a child had dripped ink on it. The halos were twisting and changing, containing great danger. If one accidentally fell into it, no one knew what would happen to them.
Within this few kilometres, Lu Ye and Yuan Guang were fiercely fighting. After less than thirty breaths of time, Yuan Guang was completely at a disadvantage. He, a dignified Ninth Order cultivator, was being suppressed by a Seventh Order cultivator to the point where he couldn't even breathe.
He really regretted it. If he was just passing by, then so be it. Why did he come down when he heard the commotion? Curiosity really killed the cat.
At this moment, he couldn't escape, and his situation wasn't good. If this continued, he would die sooner or later.
Unless he could take down the boy opposite him and use this to force 'Yi Yi' to let him go.
Thinking so in his heart, facing Lu Ye's sword, Yuan Guang steeled his heart and, instead of dodging, raised his sword towards Lu Ye's wrist.
He intended to take the other party's sword head-on. He had the protection of his Artifact Armour, so his life wasn't in danger, but as long as he cut off the tendons in his opponent's hand, he could take him down and survive!
[Boy, the world is dangerous. The Sect Elders didn't teach you anything, so let me teach you!] Yuan Guang thought to himself.
* Ding dang … *
The long sword that was aimed at Lu Ye's wrist was blocked by the Defensive Spirit Rune.
Yuan Guang's body froze in place as a severe pain spread from his chest and abdomen. He clearly felt that his lung had been pierced, causing his eyes to bulge. He couldn't understand how the other party had broken through his Artifact Armour and pierced his body.
The other party's sword was indeed sharp, but it wasn't sharp to such an extent.
Moreover, what was that thing that had appeared on the other party's wrist? How had it been able to block his sword?
At such a close distance, their eyes met, but Lu Ye's gaze remained calm. He was all too familiar with exchanging injury for injury. He had done so many times before, so when Yuan Guang attacked just now, he knew what the other party was planning.
Yuan Guang was a Ninth Order cultivator, and his strength was indeed very strong. Up until now, he had been able to block all of Lu Ye's attacks, and only once had he been lucky enough to land a blow on Yuan Guang.
Lu Ye had been looking for an opportunity all this time. Originally, he had planned to play it safe, but Yuan Guang had unexpectedly given him such an opportunity.
The moment he stabbed out, the Mountain Blade didn't just have one Sharpness Spirit Rune, but two.
There were some Spirit Runes on the Innate Skill Tree that didn't have a specific function, but rather were used to connect different Spirit Runes. These things could no longer be called Spirit Runes, but rather a kind of technique, one that utilized Spirit Runes.
Lu Ye had used this technique to instantly activate two Sharpness Spirit Runes, using them as a foundation to connect the two Sharpness Spirit Runes.
[The other party has an Artifact Armour, and I have a Sharpness Spirit Rune. If one isn't enough, then I'll use two! As long as my sword is sharp enough, any defence is nothing but paper!]
