But before that, he still wanted to see how far his sword formation could go!
The sword formation whistled, resonating with the stars. The three cultivators felt as if they were bearing all the pressure, as if the flying swords in the air would fall at any moment, destroying the world. They were unstoppable!
This was an illusion. The sword formation was accumulating power!
The sword formation needed to accumulate power! It wasn't like how he had dealt with Weiyan in the South Sea, where the sword formation had immediately gathered power and slashed out!
Because he wasn't facing one person now, but three!
The sword formation had gathered power into a single sword. When the sword slashed down, it meant that the other six flying swords had temporarily lost their ability to move!
He couldn't use the Heavenly Sword Ruler, nor could he separate from the sword formation to protect his master, because their power had been transferred to the flying sword that had struck out through the sword formation!
But he was facing three opponents now! If he fought against them, he might be able to kill one of them, but he would be reduced to ashes by the other two!
So he had to accumulate power! He had to seize the opportunity! He had to create psychological pressure on his opponents! As long as one of them lost their balance, he would have an opportunity!
Lou Xiaoyi also hoped that his opponents would fight against his sword formation, looking for an opportunity to attack and defend! Only by fighting would he have a chance!
But the three Daoists Three Purities were extremely experienced! They wouldn't attack easily, but instead stood together, waiting for his sword to land!
Waiting for him to land, he couldn't land! This was the subtlety of battle!
Unless he used the sword formation to continue grinding without gathering power! The result of this was that his defense would increase by a level, but the strength of his attacks wouldn't increase qualitatively. It could only be said that with the threat of the condensed sword strike, his opponents would hesitate to attack!
The weakness was also very obvious. He would lose the flexibility to control the sword!
This was the fundamental difference between controlling the sword and controlling the sword! It couldn't be said to be good or bad. Different environments had different applications!
It could only be said that after Lou Xiaoyi's heavy sword lost its threat, the combination of tactics he could choose was greatly limited by the fact that he had three opponents!
This wasn't strange. An early Jin Dan Swordsman could easily crush three peak Jin Dan cultivators from the strongest Daoist sects in the cultivation world. This was illogical!
Lou Xiaoyi sighed in his heart. Reality had proven that the sword formation was not omnipotent. Under the difference in strength, it was impossible for there to be an omnipotent sword technique! This was a problem that he had to solve in the future. How could he achieve a perfect, natural, and accurate switch between Sword Manipulation and Sword Play?
The sword formation surrounded him and began to attack according to the Big Dipper Star Formation. He wisely chose to attack separately and reserved the right to gather his sword and attack at any time! This was the most suitable method at the moment!
In the blink of an eye, the flying swords and the spells of the Dharma cultivators began an intense battle! However, Lou Xiaoyi's attacks were even more resolute than before. He was trying his best to find a loophole in the trio's teamwork and find a breakthrough point!
Gentle Breeze could sense the change in Swordsman. He knew that he could not wait any longer.
A single person's sword formation would never have a systematic problem. But when three people worked together, there would definitely be problems. Even if the three of them had been friends for hundreds of years and came from the same origin, they were not the same person!
As time passed, there would definitely be a time when there would be a mistake in their teamwork!
He hoped that this would be a complete victory. He did not want any of his fellow disciples to die here … He secretly took out a jade bottle from his hand. However, he did not throw it at his opponent. Instead, he threw it into the sea below him!
His seemingly aimless throw made Lou Xiaoyi frown. Others might not know, but he knew very well what was hidden under the Imperial Oyster Reef. This was also the reason why he had brought the three of them here!
However, this was not the original plan!
His body slammed into the water and was about to rush up, but he was firmly held down by the three Dharma cultivators. They did not care about the consequences because they knew what their fellow disciple had thrown down!
Both sides only knew half of the situation. Lou Xiaoyi knew the actual situation under the sea, while the Three Pure Ones knew the details of the bottle. If they gathered together, what would happen?
The jade bottle fell very quickly. Lou Xiaoyi could not free his hands to stop it. He watched as it sank into the sea. Immediately, a whirlpool appeared on the surface of the sea. It quickly formed a waterspout and sucked Lou Xiaoyi in the sky!
The strongest spiritual weapon of the Three Pure Ones could only be used in places where there were rivers and seas. The stronger the water, the better the effect. The most suitable place was the sea!
The jade bottle was not famous, but the natural phenomenon after it was thrown into the sea was very famous — the Dragon's Breath of the Azure Sea!
It was a huge waterspout, like the neck of a long-necked dragon. Its body was under the sea, and its long neck was thousands of feet above the surface of the sea, waiting for an opportunity to suck people in!
This was a sub-precious weapon whose power was close to that of a precious weapon. It was the pinnacle of the Three Pure Ones' weapon manufacturing technology. Under the Dragon's Breath, no Jin Dan cultivator could resist, regardless of their cultivation level!
The waterspout's target was obviously Lou Xiaoyi. He was thousands of feet above the sea, but he was still unable to resist the powerful suction force. Before the waterspout even got close to him, the suction force had already controlled the entire battlefield. Not only him, but the three Three Pure Ones cultivators were also affected!
Gentle Breeze frowned. This jade bottle did not belong to him, nor did it belong to any of the Three Pure Jin Dan cultivators. It was a public property of the sect. Anyone who needed it could borrow it from the sect temporarily.
The purpose of their trip this time was only to communicate with the Five Elements Sect of the Eastern Sea. They did not know that there would be a battle. The reason why they brought this jade bottle was because the Five Elements Sect had heard of the Dragon's Breath of the Azure Sea and wanted to see it for themselves. If such a request was made by other sects, it would be meaningless. However, since the Five Elements Sect was inextricably linked to the Three Pure Ones, their request had to be fulfilled. They were not asking for the jade bottle, but just to see its effects.
Before they could demonstrate it on the spot, they already knew about the arrival of the Xuanyuan Swordsman. This was the reason why they were so confident. With their positioning technique, at least in the Eastern Sea, with the help of the Five Elements Sect, it would not be difficult to locate the Swordsman on land. Why did they let him go out to sea? Why did they let him leave the coastal waters? The most important factor was that the deeper the sea, the more powerful the Dragon's Breath of the Azure Sea would be!
If a cultivator was caught by the Dragon's Breath, he would be torn apart by the water pressure in the waterspout. He would not be able to use any mystic techniques. If his body was not tough enough, he would probably die on the spot. Even if he could hold on and escape in the end, most of his abilities would be gone. How could he survive being surrounded by three people?
It was a perfect strategy! This was the reason why they were not in a hurry to make a move themselves. Three peak Jin Dan cultivators had to use this kind of inferior treasure to deal with an early Jin Dan cultivator. This in itself showed that they were afraid of the Swordsman. If the Swordsman died in the Yellow Springs, he should be proud of himself!
The only small surprise was that the waterspout's attractive force was a little too strong. It actually faintly enveloped the three of them? Was this a normal phenomenon?
Seeing the gazes of his two junior brothers, Gentle Breeze smiled indifferently. "It's fine. Just relax! The jade bottle has already located the Swordsman. There's no mistake! It's just that the Dragon's Breath of the Azure Sea is boundless and cannot be condensed. This is also a common problem with water-type forbidden techniques. It's not strange at all! "
He did not speak the truth because he had never used the Dragon's Breath of the Azure Sea before! But at this moment, as the senior brother in charge, what else could he say?
Could he say that he had never used it before and didn't know? Could he just leave it up to fate?
