The tall man looked at Zhang Yu with a Solemnly look in his eyes.
Although he had never met Zhang Yu, he had absorbed the memories of all the people of Shuang Continent. When he saw someone or something he didn't know, he could find the answer from those memories.
He knew that the person in front of him was one of the biggest enemies of Shuang Continent. Almost every major setback of Shuang Continent was directly or indirectly related to this person.
He stood up straight and said in Tianxia language, "Zhang Xuanzheng? I've heard a lot about you. "
Zhang Yu looked at him and said, "Shuang Continent's Zhengguo?"
The tall man said, "That's me. Xuanzheng, you can also call me by my former name of Tianxia, Shen Tang."
Zhang Yu changed his mind and looked at him, "I remember that the original Duzhou and Mi Continent's Commandant was called Shen Tang. What's your relationship with this person?"
The tall man said meaningfully, "As a person of Shuang Continent, it doesn't matter who you used to be. Your body is also not necessary. The only thing that lasts forever is our spirit. If Zhang Xuanzheng is willing, I can also let you become one of us and share this ability with us."
At this moment, more footsteps came from outside. One cultivator after another walked in from outside the karst cave and stopped behind Zhang Yu. At the same time, they all looked at the tall man.
The man glanced at the cultivators but still stood there. He didn't avoid or run away, as if he wasn't afraid of them. However, Zhang Yu noticed that the man unconsciously tightened his grip on the crystal jade in his left hand.
At this moment, a soldier came up and cupped his fists, hurriedly saying, "Xuanzheng, Commandant Ming has sunk down there and hasn't come out yet."
Zhang Yu looked down and saw that Commandant Ming was under the lava lake. The high temperature didn't affect him, but his whole body kept sinking.
One could see that there was a layer of strange aura surrounding Lieutenant Ming's body. This aura seemed to be familiar to him. It was also this aura that caused him to be unable to come up for a time.
With a single thought, Fang Xingjian's Heart Light expanded, clashing with the strange aura on Commandant Ming's body and restraining him. With the help of Fang Xingjian's Heart Light, Commandant Ming struggled hard and broke free from Fang Xingjian's Heart Light. As the light on Commandant Ming's body surged, he leaped out from the lake with a loud boom and landed back on the shore.
He cupped his fists at Zhang Yu and said, "Thank you, Zhang Yu." Then, he looked at the tall man. Light rose from his body, and he grew taller. Flames flowed around him, and in an instant, he turned into a Red Flame Giant that was more than ten meters tall.
He raised his hands and clenched his fists, releasing a burst of vibrating sound. Immediately, a circle of Qi waves spread out from his body. He shouted, "Again!"
As he spoke, he took a step forward and slapped the tall man with his palm.
Although his body was not as tall as when he fought with Patriarch Yuan Tong this time, it was because his control over his power had deepened.
When he attacked the tall man just now, he realized that his power had actually been returned. His idea was simple and crude. Since the tall man could withstand that power just now, he would use even more power now!
The tall man did not retreat even half a step in the face of the astonishing momentum. He stretched out his hand to block the attack, and their palms collided in an instant.
Under this collision, Commandant Ming's body shook violently, and he took a few steps back. With every step he took, the entire karst cave trembled violently as if it had been hit by a powerful impact. Following that, a loud trembling sound could be heard.
Shi Yue pondered for a moment, and said, "Xuan Zheng, this person seems to be able to send back external power."
Zhang Yu nodded his head slightly. When his mind light came into contact with that Qi, he discovered that under the encirclement of this Qi, the power that Lieutenant Ming used had been shifted and twisted, or even went in the opposite direction. It was also because of this that the more Lieutenant Ming struggled, the faster he sank.
This was because it was equivalent to him using his own power to sink himself.
However, usually, even if someone had the ability to do so, they would not do so. This was because it was necessary to use more power than the opponent. Even if the level of transformation was higher, the gains would not make up for the losses.
Therefore, there was only one other possibility left, and that was the difference in the level of power.
Only a higher level of power could do such a thing.
If that was the case, it was no wonder that this person did not care about the number of people.
Just like how the higher one's cultivation went, the more difficult it was to go up. Every increase was a huge difference and improvement. It was the same for the level of power. The higher one went, the more powerful it was. It was not something that could be made up with just numbers.
He originally planned to let all the cultivators attack together and besiege this person. However, now it seemed that it was not an appropriate choice. Doing so might cause a conflict between their powers.
Daoist Wan Ming seemed to have thought of something at this moment. He solemnly transmitted his voice, "Xuan Zheng, I remember that there was a real cultivator of the same generation as Zhu Xuan in Qingyang Xuanfu. He was skilled in a technique called 'Ten Thousand Manifestations Heavenly Wheel'. He could use the sun, moon, and starlight as fire, and his own Qi as a furnace. He could circulate it day and night without rest. Therefore, he could push back and eliminate external forces. It seems to be similar to this."
Zhang Yu pondered for a moment. He looked at that person and said, "It might not be a coincidence."
At this moment, Commandant Ming had tried to attack many times, but he still could not do anything to the tall man.
When direct attacks were useless, he also tried to use the wrestling technique. However, it was still useless. As soon as he came into contact with the fluorescent light and the strange aura of the other party, the power he used would be naturally reversed. In turn, he would be restrained and trapped.
After another unsuccessful attack, he simply tapped his feet and flew back from the opposite shore. He shook his head and said, "Zhang Xuan Zheng, I can't do anything to this person. If you want to take him down, it's up to you."
Although he said so, none of the cultivators present looked down on him.
Captain Ming had fought with many Mystic cultivators here before. Even though it wasn't a life and death battle, his strength was obvious. He couldn't defeat this person, and not many people present dared to say that they had the confidence.
The tall man moved his gaze away from Commandant Ming and looked at Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu looked up and met his gaze. He raised his hand. With a long sword hum, the Cicada Sword flew into his hand. Then, he calmly took a step forward.
With this step, as the brilliant starlight spread, he had crossed the entire lake in an instant. He arrived in front of the tall man and slashed down with his sword!
This time, the tall man was very cautious. He took a step back and stretched out his hand to push forward.
Before Zhang Yu's sword completely slashed down, he felt as if there was a hole in front of him. It was as if no matter what he did, the power of the sword would sink into it.
He did not wait for the sword to finish. With a twist of his wrist, the blade of the sword gently bent to the side. As his body moved closer to the inner circle, the blade of the sword slid up diagonally and slashed toward the tall man's neck.
This sword was very ingenious. The key was that it was extremely fast. The tall man's adaptability in battle was obviously insufficient. Therefore, the sword directly slashed his neck.
At this moment, Zhang Yu once again felt the feeling of emptiness. With his control of the sword, he could completely change the direction of the sword again.
However, he did not do so at this time. Instead, he focused his mind and a light flashed on the sword. He directly used the God of the Sword, "Absolute Slash"!
When the God of the Sword was used, he immediately felt a slight resistance. It was as if he had slashed something substantial. However, this feeling quickly disappeared and was replaced by the feeling of emptiness. Then, the blade of the sword trembled slightly. He took a few steps back. With a twist of his wrist, he had already dispelled the power that was sent back.
At this moment, the tall man also retreated. A shallow thin mark appeared on his neck. He stretched out his hand and touched it. There was golden blood flowing out. Although the wound quickly closed, he looked at Zhang Yu with a hint of fear in his eyes.
After Zhang Yu retreated, he stood there and stretched out his sleeves. His long sword was slanted to one side.
After the few slashes just now, he had a deeper understanding of the power that this person had grasped.
This power should have been borrowed by the other party and did not belong to him.
Although the level of this power was indeed higher than his, it was only slightly higher. Of course, it was not a problem with the power itself. It was because the power was too high that even he found it difficult to control.
Everything had its pros and cons. Although a high level of power could give one an advantage in a battle, it was bound to be sluggish and could not be used as one wished.
Therefore, when his attack suddenly became faster and fiercer, the other party could not use it in time. That was why he had a wound.
Not only that, by relying on his outstanding observation ability, he also discovered that the crystal jade in that person's hand had shrunk a little since just now. Clearly, this item was the source of that strange aura. Moreover, it would be used less every time it was used.
After calculating all of this, he already knew how to deal with this person.
He loosened his five fingers and the Cicada Cry Sword turned into a stream of light and flew away.
The tall man was injured just now, so he was extremely vigilant against Zhang Yu. At this moment, he slightly tightened his grip on the crystal jade in his hand. The fluorescent light on his body was no longer tightly attached to his body. Instead, it expanded outwards.
However, when the sword-light landed and touched his body, it brushed past the fluorescent light. Then, the tip of the sword turned and attacked him from another direction.
The sword light changed extremely quickly. In an instant, it changed directions over a hundred times. The spectators could only see a brilliant sword light flying around the person. At the same time, the light on the tall man's body flickered incessantly.
Zhang Yu stood there without moving. His eyes flickered slightly. He had used the Seal of Seer.
In battle, he actually rarely used this seal. This was because the Seal of the Seer could not see through his opponents whose cultivation level and abilities were above his. At most, he could only deduce what the opponent might use. In that case, he might as well rely on his own battle instincts.
As for the opponent whose strength was below him, there was no need to use this seal. It was best to use it against opponents who were difficult to deal with but did not have many tricks up their sleeves.
Right now, the person in front of him fulfilled this condition.
After just a few breaths, his eyes flickered and his figure disappeared from where he stood. When he reappeared, he was already close to the tall man. He extended a hand and pressed down. With a boom, the person could not block the external force this time. Instead, he was directly pushed back and crashed into the stone wall behind him.
