Zhao Yun clearly knew how powerful the Green Lotus Sword Intent in his body was, but he was in a passive position in this life and death battle. This feeling was too sullen.
It was like he had a mountain of gold and silver on him, but he couldn't take out a single cent. Instead, he was ridiculed by a rich man's mink coat.
Zhao Yun believed that if his master, Ling Ye Lai, was here, he would be able to easily break the deadlock with the Green Lotus Sword Technique. Grandmaster Zihui's sword intent, which she had studied for decades, was extremely powerful. Unfortunately, he couldn't even unleash one-tenth of its true power.
"No wonder Grandmaster said that to truly unleash the sword technique to the extreme, I still need to comprehend it myself. This kind of unearned power doesn't actually belong to me. "
Zhao Yun kept thinking about where the breakthrough point of the sword technique was, but Xiong Xin's attack didn't stop at all. After using the Tyrant Body Astral Wind, Xiong Xin seemed to have endless strength. Every move he made seemed to be able to punch Mount Tai and claw Lan Cang. It was as if he had eaten a cauldron of Vigorous Pills and didn't know fatigue.
On the other hand, Zhao Yun was already panting like an ox. His legs seemed to be filled with heavy lead. When he dodged, his movements were already slow. If he didn't rely on the pillars in the main hall to flip back and forth and move around, he would have already become a ghost under the astral wind.
"If this goes on, I'll be exhausted to death! What should I do? I didn't expect that I can't even beat a black bear. " Zhao Yun's clothes were already drenched in sweat. The cold sweat stuck to his skin, but it couldn't cool down the anxiety in his heart.
Zhao Yun still had too many things to do. He was really unwilling to die here.
"Be careful!" Hu Qing screamed again. Half of his soul was instantly scared out of his wits.
Zhao Yun only felt a sharp pain in his left shoulder. Xiong Xin's sharp claws had already landed on his shoulder. The astral wind was fierce, and five strips of flesh were torn open. Blood gushed out like a fountain.
Zhao Yun's body couldn't help but lean back. He rolled to the ground in a sorry state. At this time, Hu Qing's panicked scream reached his ears. He thought to himself, "What a fast speed! My speed has been greatly reduced, but this black bear is not affected at all. "
The numbness in his shoulder instantly assaulted his mind. Just as Hu Lan had said, the left side of his body instantly lost all feeling, and this numbness was still spreading. It wouldn't be long before his entire body wouldn't be able to move.
Xiong Xin did not give Zhao Yun any time to catch her breath. She roared, "Die! The Azure Lotus Sword Technique is nothing more than this! "Once again, he pounced towards Zhao Yun's face.
There was only a fine line between life and death!
At this moment, he didn't have the Taiji treasure diagram to protect him, and he didn't have the stone tablet to kill his enemies. Instead, he only had the pitch-black ancient sword lying on the ground in despair. A strong gust of wind blew in their faces, causing Wei Dou to cry out unwillingly, "Zhao Yun, oh Zhao Yun, you disappoint me too much as a master!"
Xiong Xin's tall figure completely covered Zhao Yun. The white astral wind was like a divine talisman, mercilessly attacking without the slightest bit of mercy.
"Zhao Yun, oh Zhao Yun, you disappoint me too much! Everyone said that your aptitude was too poor, but I accepted you as my disciple without any hesitation. I used to believe in my own eyes, but today, I finally know that everyone else was right, and I was the only one who was wrong. "
At the brink of death, Ling Ye Lai's disappointed face appeared in Zhao Yun's mind.
"You really don't deserve to be the successor of the Azure Lotus!"
Once the Azure Lotus appeared, ghosts cried and gods howled. The successors of the Azure Lotus in the past had dominated the world, but he, the successor of the Azure Lotus, had failed like this.
"No, I can't give up! Master chose me, and I can't betray her trust. My right hand can still move, and my sword is still here! "
Zhao Yun gripped the sword hilt tightly. Hot blood surged in her chest, burning her right hand until it was boiling hot.
She seemed to see her master frowning and guiding her when she was just learning the sword technique: "Idiot, I've already said that the Azure Lotus Sword Technique is ever-changing, and the use of it depends on the heart. Why are you still so stubborn? "
The bear's claws were already pressing down like Mount Tai. The strong conviction of the bear's heart to kill in one strike shocked everyone's eyes, and they waited for the handsome gentleman's head to fall to the ground.
"Langjun!" Hu Qing suddenly knelt on the ground powerlessly, and her red hair was tightly buried on the red carpet.
Hu Lan's face was also covered in tears, and she muttered: "Brother, I've harmed you." A sadness that she had never felt before firmly wrapped around her heart, causing her to almost suffocate. Even the death of the little parrot that she had raised for three years wasn't as heart-wrenching as she was now.
In a flash, Zhao Yun drew his sword with a smile. He suddenly had a kind of enlightenment.
As the successor of the Azure Lotus, even if he was going to die, he had to hold his sword tightly, and he had to use his last sword move.
Because, he couldn't disappoint.
He wouldn't disappoint the sword, the people, and himself.
Zhao Yun himself didn't expect that he would voluntarily become the guardian of the Azure Lotus Sword Technique at the critical moment of life and death, even though he said that he didn't want to pursue the path of the sword and only wanted powerful sword moves.
Therefore, he drew his sword with a smile.
A mighty dragon roared, and sword light danced.
Catching a glimpse of Zhao Yun's smile, Xiong Xin's first reaction was that this young man had been scared silly by him. Then, he had an incredulous feeling: "Could it be that this young man has a way to defeat my Tyrant Body's astral wind? Otherwise, why is he smiling? "
Then, waves of ice and fire vital energy suddenly appeared in front of Xiong Xin's eyes, and with great momentum, they met his astral wind head-on. He couldn't help but laugh: "Still this move? Haven't you tried it many times? It's not even enough to tickle me. "His body suddenly pressed down, completely ignoring the sword qi that was attacking the vital part of his chest.
Just as he was about to take Zhao Yun's life with a claw, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest. He looked at his chest in astonishment, and there was clearly a basin-sized hole there!
There was a small boat parked in the middle of the hole. It was rowing in the river of blood at a steady pace, as if it was a poet enjoying the moonlight.
Then, a large amount of blood poured down like a rainstorm, splashing out from the hole and dotting the red carpet with thousands of blood droplets. It was really a spectacular scene.
"This????" Xiong Xin still couldn't believe his eyes. His body, which was still full of vigor just now, was instantly drained of all strength, and he fell from the air back to the dust.
With a loud bang, everyone's eyes fell to the ground from the shock.
The reversal that no one had thought of actually played out in front of them without any warning. A large group of guards were still cheering for the City Lord's vigor just a moment ago, but now, they could only call for the imperial physicians. They surrounded the City Lord in a hubbub, and each of them looked as sluggish as wooden chickens.
The City Lord, who was invincible in the seventh layer of the Tyrant Body's astral wind, was actually defeated!
Hu Lan's tears flowed even faster, but this time, they were tears of joy. He held Hu Qing's hand and said: "Sister, this is great! Brother won, he won. "
Xiong Xin fell to the ground weakly. Only now did she have a chance to get close to Zhao Yun. She pulled her sister and rushed to Zhao Yun's side like the wind.
Hu Qing put her hand on Zhao Yun's shoulder, and only then did she dare to believe that this was not a dream. Seeing Zhao Yun lying stiffly on the ground and unable to move, she hurriedly took out the "Spirit Recovery Pill" that she had already prepared from her bosom and fed it to Zhao Yun.
This "Spirit Recovery Pill" was originally a miraculous medicine that the two sisters had collected for many years. It was specially used to eliminate the paralyzing effect of the Tyrant Body's astral wind.
Therefore, after the pill entered her stomach, Zhao Yun immediately regained consciousness. Other than the burning pain on her left shoulder, there was no other discomfort in her body.
With a tearing sound, Hu Qing tore off her sleeve and wanted to bandage Zhao Yun's wound.
However, Zhao Yun stood up and rejected Hu Qing's good intentions. He dragged his long sword and walked like a mountain, approaching Xiong Xin step by step.
The imperial guards were all flustered. They were deeply afraid that Zhao Yun would make another terrifying move, so they raised their halberds one after another to bluff. The broken Frost Clothed Iron Guards raised their Invincible Shields and said in unison with a solemn expression, "Don't be impudent!"
However, Zhao Yun did not wave his sword again. He only said, "You lost! I have already shown you the Azure Lotus Sword Technique that you wanted to see. "
After this life and death struggle, Zhao Yun made a breakthrough from the level of swordsmanship and finally opened the door to the path of swordsmanship.
Xiong Xin only thought that the sword just now was the fifth move, "The Wind and Waves Will Come", so she did not guard against it at all. In fact, this move was not only the fifth move, but the fusion of the fourth move, "If You Teach Me to Ride a Boat Under the Moon" and the fifth move's sword intent.
If this move had to be named, it would be "The Wind and Waves Will Come, Ride a Boat Under the Moon". This move contained both the uncontrollable enthusiasm of one's talent and the leisurely indifference of one's success. The two emotions, one cold and one hot, were contradictory and harmonious as they fused together.
Compared to the original two moves, the power of the fused sword move was more than double. It was as if it had been reborn and had reached a higher level of enlightenment.
Zhao Yun understood the ingenuity of the combo move in the process of fighting against Yin Thirteen. In a set of Azure Lotus Sword Technique, the order of different moves and the cycle of reincarnation would increase the power of the sword technique to a higher level.
However, just this kind of defensive sword move was not enough to break Xiong Xin's invincible Tyrant Body. This was only a difference in the way the sword moves were used, but the essence was not different.
As for the seventh level of the Tyrant Body, he had already touched the threshold of the path of body refinement. Only when he had also reached the realm of Dao would he be able to defeat Xiong Xin.
Ling Ye Lai once said to Zhao Yun, "When you can use your own sword intent one day, you will also be a grandmaster of your generation."
Zhao Yun's move just now was actually just a temporary combination of two inherent sword intents. It was not a true "self-creation".
Li Qinglian was passionate about worldly affairs, so he wanted to "ride the wind and break the waves". He wanted to seek immortality, so he desired to "ride the boat under the moon". In the end, this was all Li Qinglian's sword intent.
In comparison, the move "Peach Blossom Pond Is a Thousand Feet Deep" that Zhao Yun used to kill Hongyun was a true self-created sword intent. Therefore, that move was like a stroke of genius, and no one could block it.
However, Zhao Yun was able to understand how to fuse two sword moves into one under the shadow of death. He was no longer restricted by the original sword moves and could adapt to the situation. He had already embarked on the long path of exploring the Dao of Swords.
Zhao Yun felt enlightened and was indescribably happy. "So the Dao of Swords is actually so mysterious!"
He finally used his sword to prove himself.
Xiong Xin was already on the verge of death. He waved his hand to signal the layers of guards to disperse and faced Zhao Yun's spirited eyes alone.
He tried his best to raise his body and moved his lips with difficulty. His eyes were actually filled with determination. "I have fought for thousands of miles, but in the end, I still can't defeat you. You can block millions of troops with one sword. I admit defeat! "
After saying that, Xiong Xin closed his eyes and died.
Zhao Yun could not help but be silent. He actually felt a trace of admiration for the Master of Solitary Cloud City. He could have ordered three thousand armored soldiers and tens of thousands of soldiers to besiege me first. When I was exhausted, he could have easily killed me.
