Yuan Yi, on the other hand, was not so lucky. He was holding Nangong Xue's hand as he jumped down from the air, so it was hard for him to exert his strength. Even though he was able to react quickly and avoid several projectiles, one of them still brushed past his trousers. At first, he did not feel anything strange, but when he saw the Penetrating Bone Nail disappear in front of his eyes, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his ankle. Even someone like him, who had always been the type of person who would act as a blanket even if the sky fell down, had a drastic change in his expression. He staggered and almost fell down.
Li Yijie supported Nangong Xue and the two staggered back a few steps before they managed to stand firm. They patted the dust off each other's clothes and turned around to ask, "Brother Yuan, are you alright?"
Yuan Yi knew that his condition was bad, but he did not want to trouble the other two, so he pretended to be cheerful and replied, "I'm fine, I'm very good." But when he turned around and took advantage of the fact that the other two were not paying attention, he quietly rolled up his trousers and saw that the skin and flesh around his ankle had completely corroded, leaving only a few white bones. Needless to say, the Penetrating Bone Nail had been tempered with the Broken Love Sword.
Although Manor Master Xia was lucky enough to succeed with his shovel, Jiang Liechen secretly used his internal energy at the same time and his whole body produced a strong rebounding force, immediately shaking the shovel back. Manor Master Xia staggered back a step, his expression extremely ugly. A layer of black smoke rolled back and forth, looking very frightening. Manor Master Ping knew the secret behind this and called out, "Brother Xia, don't use that move again! You've already used too much energy when you fought with Master Li just now and your body has reached its limit. If you continue to force yourself, I'm afraid … "
Jiang Liechen turned his gaze and smiled, "Oh, my limit?" It was as if he had forcefully turned 180 degrees, his sleeves fluttering in the wind as he waved his sleeve to attack Manor Master Xia. Manor Master Ping raised his sword to stab at Jiang Liechen's waist. Jiang Liechen coldly snorted and let his waist be hit, but he still managed to hit the palm. Manor Master Xia was immediately seriously injured and fell back several steps.
Li Yijie looked at the battle nearby; he was so angry that his whole body was numb. "Xueer," he said resolutely, "Let's use that move!" Nangong Xue was startled for a moment before she realized that he must be referring to the "Perfect Pair of Pearls and Jade Pearls" that her master and mistress had taught her. She hesitated and said, "But that move consumes a lot of my genuine Qi. I'm afraid that after I use it, I won't have the strength to fight a protracted battle with him …?"
Li Yijie said, "Those useless moves, it's useless to use them too much. The volcano is about to erupt, the only way to save everyone is to end this quickly. "Nangong Xue agreed with him and decided to put her life on the line. Pulling out their swords from the ground, the two of them silently circulated their martial arts. Rays of light flowed on their swords, illuminating their faces.
Jiang Liechen glanced at them again and muttered to himself with a frown, "Are they going to use that move again?" He wasn't confident that he could win against Li Yijie and Nangong Xue's "Perfect Pair of Swords". The last time they fought on Mount Hua, his clothes were cut by them. It was only after he left the mountain that he realized that several of his ribs were broken. If it weren't for Xuan Shuang blocking the attack for him, he probably wouldn't have suffered such a light injury. He still had lingering fears. Before the attack was launched, the hidden weapons in their hands shot out.
Manor Head Liu sneered, "You don't dare to face them head-on, so you only know how to attack from behind?" As the three manor heads spoke, they each struck down a few darts. Even the darts that reached Li Yijie and were blocked by the two men's swords were scattered in different directions as soon as they came into contact with the golden light of their swords. Manor Head Liu couldn't help but laugh. He thought to himself, 'So these two are actually experts who have hidden their strength. I was worried about them for nothing.'
Li Yijie and Nangong Xue swung their swords to strike down the darts. Not only did this not hinder their channeling of energy, it was also beneficial to their blood circulation. Once their channeling was complete, the two men combined their sword hilts. Amidst the flickering light, the two swords shone with a dazzling brilliance and gradually merged into one. The two men stared at each other and nodded. Suddenly, they swung their swords and leaped forward to attack. Their movements were as if they were one person. Before Jiang Liechen could react, the attack was already in front of him. He angrily muttered to himself, "Damn it!"
Manor Head Liu laughed, "So you still know that you deserve to die? You're not too stupid. "He swung his sword and attacked from behind, aiming for Jiang Liechen's back. Yuan Yi also leaped down from the air and attacked from the left and right with the original manor head. One stabbed his upper body, the other swept his lower body, making it difficult for him to take care of both sides. The most important part was the front, which was left to Li Yijie and Nangong Xue. Although this formation was formed at the last minute, the participants were all top-notch experts and had an unrivalled aura.
No matter how arrogant Jiang Liechen was, he knew that this was not the time to fight recklessly. After all, he had been through hundreds of battles and his ability to adapt was astonishing. In just a moment, he turned his upper body sideways and flicked his sleeve to suppress the attacks from the east and west. His remaining move swept away Manor Head Liu's sword. At the same time, he also had the intention of directing the energy of the original manor head and the others to Manor Head Liu's body, so that he would have to concentrate on defending and would not be able to divert his attention to attack himself. At the same time, he had to concentrate all his energy to deal with the Twin Swords Combination.
Unexpectedly, although he was extremely cautious, he still underestimated the power of the couple's sword technique. He did not need to defend himself for long because he knew that with his remaining energy, he was not a match for the two of them. At the same time, he waited for the obstacles behind him to recover and attack again. He was surrounded from all sides and would not be able to turn the situation around. Immediately, he made a decision and used his tenacity to reduce the power of the Twin Swords. At the same time, he suddenly leapt up, the mountains, rivers, earth, and trees beneath his feet swept away and his figure shrunk.
Jiang Liechen tried his best to stabilize his body in midair. He thought about the power of the thunderbolt just now. It was as if the power of heaven and earth was pressing down on him at the same time. He had only experienced this kind of situation when he showed off his might at Mount Hua. He did not expect that he would be facing it face to face again today. He was not being modest, but even with his strength, he could only strengthen it by half and was unable to completely eliminate it. It was precisely because he understood this that he felt even more uneasy in his heart.
But today, his strength had reached the peak of perfection. When he was defeated, he did not think about how to defend himself. Instead, his mind was filled with resentment and unwillingness. It was so much so that he was like an ordinary person facing difficulties. His first thought was to avoid admitting defeat. He thought to himself, "What couple's sword technique? What's so great about it? If it weren't for my injured hand, how could I lose to you two little bastards? Pieces of chicken and dog … "
Before he could console himself, two white shadows suddenly flashed under his feet. Li Yijie and Nangong Xue were relentlessly pursuing him. Under the sun's bright light, the reflection of their swords was even more astonishing, dazzling him until he felt dizzy. After a moment of hesitation, he opened his eyes and saw that the swords were already in front of him. With a cold voice he said, "Your speed is not slow." Even he knew clearly that this sentence was just a show of strength in the face of an enemy; it was not as imposing as before.
Li Yijie said in a clear voice, "Since you look down on me, how can I not show you my strength? Take this! " Nangong Xue followed, "That's right. Even the resistance of an ant in your eyes cannot be ignored!"
From beginning to end, the two of them attacked as if they were of one mind. Coupled with the intense pressure from their swords, Jiang Liechen could not find any flaw. Even if he attacked the two of them separately, it would be difficult for them to take care of both sides. However, under their cooperation, he was still at a disadvantage. Thoughts raced through his mind, hundreds of ideas flashed through his mind, but he could not find a way to deal with them.
Li Yijie smiled slightly, and the two of them intensified their attacks. The three of them unleashed their internal energy to the extreme. While fighting in midair, they were able to move like immortals walking on flat ground. Step by step, they pressed on. Jiang Liechen could only retreat continuously, gradually approaching the mouth of the volcano.
Everyone on the ground saw it clearly and guessed that Li Yijie had intentionally forced him above the magma and then struck him down with a heavy blow, allowing him to achieve his goal of "jumping into the magma". However, whether or not he could achieve his goal of becoming a demon was still unknown, so he still showed mercy in his moves.
Not long after, Jiang Liechen also realized that ever since he had fought with others, he had never tasted this kind of defeat. He gradually lost his composure, and his expression became more and more impetuous. He thought to himself, "What the hell! The two of them are flying in the air, their energy consumption is not small. Where did they get that kind of powerful energy to support the power of that sword? "
He did not know that this couple's' Body Fusion Technique 'had another advantage. The two swords were fused into one, and at the same time their hearts were linked, so their internal energy could circulate and nourish each other, and their internal energy was enough to supply the two of them. It could be said that this time they had a big advantage.
Jiang Liechen heard the clamor below, which was all about Li Yijie and Yuan Qianqian's encouragement. The anger in his heart nearly burned his entire body. "What's the noise about?" He roared, "Shut up!" Raising his hand, he swept several plum blossom darts toward the ground. "Everybody, be careful!" Yuan Yi called out. They did not dare to meet his secret projectiles head on, so they leaped to the side to evade. As soon as the plum blossom darts landed on the ground, the toxicity immediately corroded the mud and turned it black.
Jiang Liechen did not have time to check whether his darts hit the target or not. He did not hear any blood-curdling screams, so he knew that his attack just now had hit empty air. Suddenly he heard Li Yijie's cold voice, "Yo, you seem to be quite relaxed, aren't you?" Hearing this, Jiang Liechen was startled, because that was his usual tone of voice. Secondly, he was even more startled that these two people had arrived so quickly. Before he could counterattack, a dazzling ray of light flashed, the sword had already arrived in front of him. Jiang Liechen was relying entirely on his battle instincts; in this desperate situation he still made his move, his momentum was not inferior to his opponent's.
From where Yuan Yi and the others were standing, the sun was shining brightly above their heads, enveloping the three people's figures in light and shadow. When the light disappeared, they saw Jiang Liechen had finally raised his sleeve to wrap around the sword. The tip of the sword was only about a cun away from his chest. His sleeves were struck by the internal energy attached to the sword, and the fabric had been shaken into pieces. They fluttered down from the air, as if a large number of fine black feathers were falling down.
One of his arms was exposed, with streaks of blood flowing from different wounds. The blood was as dense as rain, so it was clear that his entire arm had suffered heavy injuries. Thinking about it, it made sense. The brilliance of the sword's radiance was enough to make one's heart tremble in fear even from a distance. Facing the sword head on, the consequences could be imagined. The fact that his arm was not completely cut off could be considered his astonishing internal energy, or perhaps it could be considered a bit of luck.
Li Yijie and Li Yijie had also used their full strength. Their previous attack was actually a competition of internal energy. Rather than saying that they had dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Liechen, it would be more accurate to say that they had both suffered heavy injuries. The light of the merged sword gradually dissipated, until it returned to its original dark color. Since the divine energy had retreated, the sword had once again split into two. There was a fine line on each side of the sword, gradually spreading out to the two ends.
Li Yijie and Li Yijie clearly knew that their internal energy was not enough to support this couple's technique, but as if they were hoping for a favorable turn of events, their swords continued to overlap, unwilling to withdraw. Seeing the sword's thickness increase, they gradually felt a sense of disharmony after the division.
It was unknown whether or not Jiang Liechen had noticed this change, but his gaze rested on the blood that was continuously flowing from his arm. Perhaps it was because the pain had stimulated his mind to become even crazier, but he gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it … damn it! Both of you, go to hell! " Even though his injuries were so severe, he was still able to stimulate the circulation of his internal energy. A wave of undiminished internal energy gushed out along the sword's body, and with a bang, it struck the two people's chests.
Li Yijie and Li Yijie both spat out mouthfuls of blood, and their swords split into several pieces. At the same time, they fell backwards, drawing a long arc in the air. Fortunately, they were still not in the boiling lava.
Jiang Liechen let out a long breath, but before his internal energy had completely dissipated, he fell down at the same time. In this round of fighting, the strength of the two sides could be said to be evenly matched. As a result, Li Yijie and Li Yijie's injuries were extremely severe, and he was not much better off. Unexpectedly, he was unable to stabilize his body. When he fell, he was barely able to circulate his internal energy, and only then was he able to get his feet to touch the ground. He knew that the people on the ground had been eyeing them covetously for a long time, and Li Yijie and Li Yijie had paved a large path for them. Now that they had succeeded and retreated, it was time for this group of people to give them a hand.
