In the mountain valley, Jiang Liuzi's blood turned cold. Looking at the figure rushing towards him, it was as if he was looking at an ancient beast that had just broken out of its cage. The indescribable sense of oppression made him almost unable to breathe.
[This bastard … is actually a Weapon Cultivator!] It wasn't until this moment that Jiang Liuzi was truly certain of Lu Ye's Path. Everything the other party had just displayed was just a means to confuse him!
[How treacherous!]
He struggled to shake the long sword in his hand, dispelling the distracting thoughts in his mind. Sword light flashed, and sword flowers began to bloom.
The Mountain Coiling Sabre was covered in a fiery red Spirit Qi, and outside the Spirit Qi was wrapped in an inch-long sabre light, adding to its sharpness. The long sabre slashed and stabbed, and under the flickering sabre light, the blooming sword flowers were quickly annihilated.
Amidst a series of crisp sounds and splashes of sparks, Jiang Liuzi's figure couldn't stop retreating, and a huge wound deep enough to see bone appeared on his chest. This was caused by Lu Ye's slash just now.
Having just fought a great battle, Jiang Liuzi had consumed a lot of energy and suffered heavy injuries. He was no longer as calm as before, and even his aura had become a little chaotic.
His opponent's every strike was difficult for him to parry. His opponent's violent strength and speed were not something a Third-Order Cloud River Realm cultivator could possess. Just from the strength of his opponent's attacks, Yang Kai almost thought his opponent was a Body Cultivator who specialized in Body Tempering.
Only a Body Cultivator could have such powerful strength.
And the speed of his sabre was so fast that even a Sword Cultivator like him couldn't compare.
What made Jiang Liuzi even more upset was that his opponent's long sabre flashed from time to time, sometimes as light as air, sometimes as heavy as a mountain, making it impossible for him to guard against it.
Even if he kept retreating, he couldn't weaken his opponent's storm-like attacks. In less than ten breaths, several deep wounds appeared on his body, the most serious of which was a puncture wound. Originally, such an injury wouldn't be a big deal as long as it wasn't a vital point, but Jiang Liuzi clearly felt that the moment his opponent's long sabre pierced into his body, something exploded inside him. It was an extremely sharp thorn that pierced his internal organs!
Jiang Liuzi's strength was rapidly fading away, and there were already double images in front of his eyes. But even if the situation was so bad, he still gritted his teeth and persisted.
He was a sword cultivator, a sword cultivator who would rather break than bend. If he was asked to admit defeat, he might as well die in battle right here!
At this moment, he only hated himself for being too naive. He had thought that the other party was a spell cultivator after seeing the exquisiteness of the other party's spell. If he hadn't trusted his own judgment too much, he wouldn't have been in such a difficult situation after being tricked by the other party.
He had seen sinister people before, but he had never seen someone so sinister. The main reason was that the fox-faced man in front of him was too similar to a magic cultivator. No matter who it was, they would not dare to believe that this guy's true identity was actually a weapon cultivator.
What kind of Weapon Cultivator could cast so many spells at such a fast speed …?
At this moment, when he looked at the slanted fox again, his expression seemed to contain endless mockery. His chest felt stuffy and he couldn't suppress the mouthful of blood that gushed out of his mouth.
Jiang Liuzi gritted his teeth and madly poured his Spiritual Energy into the long sword in his hand. The long sword instantly glowed brightly.
On the opposite side, Lu Ye was aware of the other party's intentions. He obviously wanted to finish this battle in one fell swoop. He didn't know what kind of trump card the other party was going to use, but at this moment, he had the upper hand, so he naturally had no reason to be afraid.
His vitality surged, blending with Hu Po's and gathering towards his right arm.
But before he could display his Saber Technique, he frowned and suddenly jumped back a few dozen meters.
Jiang Liuzi had already prepared his killing move. A shocking sword wave slashed down, but it was blocked by a figure who raised his hand.
It was the young man at the Cloud River Realm Ninth Order. Even though he was in the Ninth Order, he couldn't help but retreat a few steps after blocking Jiang Liuzi's attack.
Then, he turned around, looked at Lu Ye, and frowned, "Admit defeat!"
Previously, Xia Qian Qian had admitted defeat for her side's Weapon Cultivator. Now, he ran out to admit defeat for Jiang Liuzi, so he didn't break the rules. He knew that if he didn't step forward, Jiang Liuzi would really die here.
Sword Cultivators all had bad tempers. If Lu Ye's cultivation was higher than Jiang Liuzi's or the same as his, it wouldn't matter, but the key was that Lu Ye's cultivation was two Minor Realms lower than Jiang Liuzi's, so how could he be willing to compromise?
He didn't want to ruin his Sword Heart.
Just as he shouted these two words, a thud came from behind him. The young man turned his head and saw Jiang Liuzi lying on the ground, covered in blood. Obviously, the last sword strike just now had exhausted all his strength.
"You're good!" The young man glanced at Lu Ye again, his face full of doubt.
A Third Order Cloud River Realm cultivator had defeated Jiang Liuzi, two Minor Realms above him. Although there was some intrigue involved, this in itself showed the other party's strength.
[Who is this little brat?]
With such a strong background, he couldn't be a nobody. Judging from the other party's Third Order cultivation, it was likely that he had come to the Cloud River Battlefield less than half a year ago, or even less.
So, if he really wanted to inquire about this little brat's identity, it wouldn't be difficult. He just needed to ask if there were any Heaven-defying characters in the Spirit Stream Battlefield in the past six months.
The young man carried the unconscious Jiang Liuzi and flew away, leaving Lu Ye still standing in place.
In all fairness, he had the advantage in the battle against Jiang Liuzi. Not to mention that the other party had consumed some of his Spirit Qi, the most important thing was that he had disguised himself as a Sword Cultivator to take advantage of him.
If it were anyone else in Jiang Liuzi's position, they probably wouldn't have been able to block his premeditated attack.
The explosion of power was powerful and could only be blocked by a strong enough defense.
A Sword Cultivator's defense naturally couldn't be that strong.
Of course, even without these tricks, Lu Ye was confident that he could defeat Jiang Liuzi in a head-on confrontation. The other party was indeed not weak, but he wasn't weak.
It was just that the process wouldn't be so easy.
On the Spirit Peak, the Fourth-Order female Sword Cultivator's mouth formed a circle, unable to close for a long time.
When she realized that Lu Ye was a Sword Cultivator, she was very worried because Sword Cultivators had a strong suppression on Sword Cultivators. Once a Sword Cultivator got close, a Sword Cultivator basically had no chance of winning.
She had been watching in fear until Jiang Liuzi rushed to Lu Ye's side. Then, she saw Lu Ye magically take out a saber and beat Jiang Liuzi like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. The female Sword Cultivator's mind rippled as she watched, unable to recover even now.
"Senior Sister, is he a Weapon Cultivator?" She was a little slow to realize.
"Kind of." Xia Qian Qian didn't know how to define Lu Ye's faction. This person was really a bit complicated.
"He's so strong!" The female Sword Cultivator's beautiful eyes flashed, and her face was full of admiration. She didn't know where her Senior Sister found such a powerful helper.
Originally, the strength that Jiang Liuzi showed made her look up to a mountain, but now, she saw that there was always a mountain higher than the one before.
Sure enough, there were always many geniuses in this world, shining brightly, making an ordinary cultivator like her feel inferior.
On the opposite Spirit Peak, the young man and another young man finished checking Jiang Liuzi's injuries. The young man said, "Don't be careless, there's something wrong with this guy!"
At this moment, the young man even suspected that Lu Ye was wearing some kind of Spirit Artifact to hide his cultivation. Otherwise, how could a Third-Order Cloud River Realm cultivator be so strong?
The young man looked somewhat similar to Jiang Liuzi, but his expression was more sinister. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "He's dead!"
As the younger brother of Jiang Liuzi, seeing that his brother was seriously injured and unconscious, he was naturally furious in his heart. He secretly made up his mind that he must kill that fox-faced man and let him know how powerful he and his brother were.
In terms of strength alone, he was not as good as Jiang Liuzi, but in terms of killing ability, even three Jiang Liuzi together couldn't compare to him, because he was a Ghost Cultivator!
His figure rushed out and flew straight to the mountain valley.
Lu Ye looked up and saw his opponent flying over, but soon, his opponent hid his figure and disappeared without a trace.
A Ghost Cultivator!
Under his mask, Lu Ye's expression was strange.
Among all the major sects, he liked Ghost Cultivators the most. Because these guys always relied on their ability to communicate with the Netherworld to find ways to quietly sneak up on the enemy and then attack.
But for Lu Ye, the concealment methods of Ghost Cultivators were basically nothing.
Imagine a confident Ghost Cultivator quietly sneaking up on the enemy, but before he could attack, the enemy would attack first. How terrifying would that be!
Without the means of sneak attack, Ghost Cultivators of the same level were much weaker than Weapon Cultivators in head-on combat!
So, seeing that the person had hidden his figure, Lu Ye immediately added the Insight Spirit Inscriptions in his eyes. At the same time, his figure jumped up and directly faced him.
The surrounding scenery changed drastically. Under the Insight Spirit Inscriptions, various colors flowed and changed in his field of vision. Back then, when Lu Ye activated the Insight Spirit Inscriptions for the first time, he was still not used to it. Today, he was already used to this strange field of vision.
Jiang Chengzi, who was hidden, clearly did not expect that Lu Ye would dare to take the initiative to face a Ghost Cultivator. While he was slightly surprised, he also admired Lu Ye's courage.
Generally speaking, cultivators would use silence to deal with Ghost Cultivators. Previously, when Jiang Liuzi defeated the Ghost Cultivators on Lu Ye's side, he used this method.
Those who dared to take the initiative to face him mostly wanted to try their luck and break through the Ghost Cultivator's concealment technique. This was because when Ghost Cultivators first hid, they would definitely not move too far. As long as the attack range was large enough, it was still very likely that the Ghost Cultivator would be beaten out.
Jiang Chengzi had encountered such enemies in the past, but without exception, they were all taught a lesson by him. Therefore, he felt that the fox-faced man opposite him had the same thoughts.
But what surprised him was that although the other party was rushing over, he didn't show any signs of attacking at all. The long saber was held in his hand, and the nine Imperial Artifacts circled around him as he charged straight at the place where he was hiding.
Jiang Chengzi frowned and hurriedly changed his position.
The streams of light from the imperial weapons shot out in all directions. Jiang Chengzi's hidden figure suddenly appeared. The dagger in his hand blocked a stream of light that was attacking him. He shouted in his heart, "How can this person be so lucky!"
