Lu Yang's Law Technique Was Far Too Powerful
Wang Da hovered in mid-air at the edge of the valley, only one or two kilometers away from the center of the collision.
For him, this distance was no different than standing right in front of him.
The shockwave from the explosion, carrying debris and fragments of Sword Intent, hurtled towards him but passed right through without hindrance, only creating faint red, flame-like ripples at the moment of impact.
He was like a phantom, or a flame that had transformed into human form.
You can see it, but you can't touch it.
All attacks could only pass through his body, leaving not even a trace.
His expression remained calm, his gaze piercing through the blinding golden light and the swirling stone dust, fixed firmly on the ever-expanding golden orb in the center of the valley, without blinking.
Just then, a deep humming sound came from the depths of the ball of light.
Buzz--!
The air seemed to be compressed in that instant, and the sword wind that had just calmed down became violent again, even more violent than before, pushing out a visible shockwave in all directions, carrying with it gravel and dust.
Where the shockwave passed, the few remaining rocks on the ground were pulverized, and the tree stumps that had been knocked down were uprooted and tumbled dozens of meters before landing.
Then, within that still-glowing golden ball of light, an extremely dazzling golden sword light flashed by.
The sword light was over a hundred meters long, broad and blazing, like a giant sword held by a god, slashing down from the center of the ball of light.
In that instant, the entire valley was bathed in daylight, the golden light even surpassing the afterglow of the setting sun!
Boom!!
A second boom followed immediately.
It was deeper, more muffled, and more deafening than the first sound!
The ground trembled violently several times, and spiderweb-like cracks rapidly spread across the ground, centered on the golden ball of light.
The widest crack was big enough to fit an adult's arm, and the rocks at the edge of the crack were charred black by the high temperature, emitting wisps of smoke.
The next instant after the roaring sound, a flash of golden light appeared in the distance.
Su Jinxuan appeared hundreds of meters away without warning, as if she had always been there.
Her demeanor was not as composed as Movement Method movements.
The once thick and solid Golden Palace Sword Gang Aura surrounding her now had visible cracks.
She turned her head slightly and glanced at the cracks on the sword aura out of the corner of her eye.
The edges of the crack were still trembling slightly, as if trying to repair itself, but the depth of the crack itself meant it couldn't heal in a short time.
She turned her gaze back to the area of golden light that was gradually fading, her pupils dilating violently, her eyes filled with solemnity and shock.
She had discussed philosophy with Lu Yang many times and was already quite used to his talent.
In her view, with Lu Yang's monstrous comprehension, it was perfectly normal for him to learn several Earth Grade Law Technique from the Golden Rainbow Sword Canon.
Even if he could comprehend those few Earth Grade Law Technique to the point of mastery or even perfection, she would only be slightly surprised at most.
However, she was still shocked by the exchange just now.
Because the power of this Law Technique... is wrong!
Something's really wrong!
It's important to know that although her cultivation level was suppressed to the Early-stage Foundation Establishment, her Golden Palace Sword Gang and Sunfall Golden Rainbow Sword were both genuinely at the Perfection stage!
But just now, there was a collision.
She was completely unable to break through Lu Yang's Golden Palace Sword Gang!
It only caused a tiny fluctuation in the Golden Palace Sword Gang!
As for Lu Yang's sword strike... if she hadn't retreated quickly, the Golden Palace Sword Gang would have been shattered on the spot!
No... why should I?!
Even though the two of them practiced the exact same Cultivation Method and Law Technique, and even though Lu Yang's Golden Palace Sword Gang and Sunfall Golden Rainbow Sword were both at the perfect level, he was still a whole major realm higher than Lu Yang!
Is this difference in skill level just for show?
How did he do that?
Su Jinxuan's gold and red robe fluttered in the wind, and a few strands of her black hair, which was tied up with a red gold hairpin, were blown into disarray by the mountain wind, brushing against her cold and solemn face.
Her gaze flickered uncertainly.
Just then, the dazzling golden light finally dissipated completely.
Lu Yang's figure reappeared in the center of the valley, which had been ravaged beyond recognition.
The rock beneath his feet had shattered into fist-sized pieces, and his feet were treading on a shocking web of cracks.
But the pale golden light still steadily enveloped him, its surface as smooth as ever.
The obsidian greatsword still hung in front of him.
The sword's blade was thick and jet black, appearing both heavy and stable against the lingering golden light around it.
Lu Yang suddenly grinned, revealing a bright smile.
He reached out and grasped the hilt of the Obsidian Sword.
He lifted the heavy, jet-black sword, almost as tall as him, with one hand, its tip pointing diagonally to the ground, the blade gleaming with a deep, cold light in the setting sun.
His voice echoed through the valley, filled with undisguised excitement. "Elder Su, I love your fighting style!"
Su Jinxuan raised an eyebrow when she saw Lu Yang grasp the heavy sword.
His words lessened the shock in her eyes, replacing it with a smile that showed her interest.
A passionate smile appeared on her cold, beautiful face. "Young Master Lu's strength has greatly surprised me... With my Early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, I'm afraid I'm no match for Young Master Lu. Would you mind if I increased my cultivation a bit?"
Lu Yang's eyes also gleamed with a fervent desire for battle. "Let's add it."
As soon as Lu Yang finished speaking, Su Jinxuan's aura suddenly surged.
Foundation Establishment Late Stage!
This is a whole major realm higher than Lu Yang's!
Lu Yang paused for a moment, and the passion for the battle in his eyes faded considerably.
Dude... I just asked you to add a little, and you fucking added two layers?!
Foundation Establishment Late Stage fighting Late Qi Refining, or Nascent Soul True Lord suppressing their cultivation to become Foundation Establishment Late Stage...?
You really have a brilliant idea!
Seeing the momentary blank look on Lu Yang's face, Su Jinxuan's smile brightened even more.
Hmm... Young Master Lu is too strong; he probably hasn't suffered any losses yet, has he?
If such a gifted and noble young person never suffers any loss in their life, it will actually hinder the growth of their Daoist heart.
As a fellow Daoist, I should at least let him suffer a little loss; consider it a gift to him.
After her cultivation level reached the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, Su Jinxuan's speed increased dramatically once again.
Her pale golden wings fluttered slightly, and before her figure could dissipate, she was already beside Lu Yang.
The Golden Sunfall Golden Rainbow Sword had already been attached to the golden longsword in her hand, which was formed from Spiritual Qi.
The sword's edge emitted a golden Sword-Ray, about an inch long, which was dazzlingly sharp in the setting sun.
She swung her longsword and slashed fiercely at Lu Yang's protective barrier once again.
The power of this sword strike is several times greater than before!
The moment the sword blade touched the light shield, Lu Yang's Golden Palace Sword Gang Qi began to fluctuate violently.
It wasn't the shallow ripples of last time—the entire surface of the light shield was vibrating, like a drumhead being constantly struck.
Click... click click...
The cracking sounds continued in succession.
On the light shield, fine cracks spread rapidly in all directions from the point of impact, with golden fragments of light bursting out from between the cracks.
Lu Yang's pupils contracted slightly.
It's true that she has the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Late Stage. Combined with Su Jinxuan's profound understanding of the Golden Sword and the Perfected Sunfall Golden Rainbow Sword, she was actually able to break through his Golden Palace Sword Gang Aura Shield!
However, Lu Yang naturally couldn't just stand by and watch the shield be broken.
His hand Method Formula changed, and pale golden illusory wings, just like Su Jinxuan's, appeared behind him.
Golden Plume Chases the Moon!
The next moment, Lu Yang flapped his wings and dodged Su Jinxuan's slash.
He moved with incredible speed, appearing behind Su Jinxuan in an instant.
At the same time, the Method Formula on his left hand changed, and the Sunfall Golden Rainbow Sword condensed.
The Law Technique was integrated into the Obsidian Sword, and the black sword and golden light intertwined, making the entire sword seem to be on fire, with countless fine golden patterns appearing on the blade.
Su Jinxuan's playing style gave Lu Yang a lot of inspiration.
Although the Sunfall Golden Rainbow Sword can attack from a distance, for cultivators, long-range attacks require locking onto and controlling with their Divine Sense, and some of the Spiritual Qi energy will dissipate during flight.
In contrast, attaching the Sunfall Golden Rainbow Sword to Law Artifact for close-quarters combat not only consumes less spiritual energy but also makes it easier to control.
More importantly, Lu Yang's physical body is extremely strong, currently comparable to a body cultivator in the Early-stage Foundation Establishment, and he can also stack his physical brute force!
Su Jinxuan's ferocious and violent fighting style is actually very suitable for him.
Although Lu Yang's Sunfall Golden Rainbow Sword is only level 2, and his cultivation level is far inferior to Su Jinxuan's, Lu Yang does possess multiple Fortune Trait.
Among them, the Golden Radiance Sword Bone, Heart Sword, Breath of Geng Metal, and Swordsmanship Apprentice can all enhance the power of Metal Dao or Sword Dao Law Technique!
That's why Lu Yang's Golden Palace Sword Gang defensive capability was so exaggerated just now!
With the enhancements from various attributes, even if it's not quite as good as the Perfected Sunfall Golden Rainbow Sword, it's not far off!
With the addition of Lu Yang's physical strength, it can be completely comparable to the Perfected Realm of the Sunfall Golden Rainbow Sword, and may even slightly surpass it!
With this sword strike, Sword Qi crisscrossed, golden light of four colors shone, and the air seemed to be lifted up in an instant, emitting a muffled roar like a mountain collapsing.
However, the moment the sword blade grazed Su Jinxuan's body, Lu Yang's pupils contracted.
He didn't feel the impact!
The next instant, Su Jinxuan's figure shattered.
It's an afterimage!
Su Jinxuan was too fast. Even when Lu Yang locked onto her with his Divine Sense, her Golden Plume Chases the Moon was still faster than the reaction speed of his Divine Sense.
His sword strike missed, but the sword light couldn't be contained.
A violent golden Sword-Ray burst forth from the sword, slashing across the entire valley.
The golden sword light sliced through the air, creating a whistling sound.
Wherever it passed, all the remaining trees were shredded into fragments by the sharp Sword Qi contained within the sword light.
The sword light flew for several kilometers before finally crashing into a low hill at the edge of the valley.
Boom!!
The top third of the mountain was almost cut off in half by this sword strike!
The mountain rocks split open, and the falling rubble crashed into the valley below, creating a series of dull echoes.
A sword mark more than three meters high and bottomless was left on the cut surface. The cut was smooth and clean, and wisps of smoke were still rising from the depths of the sword mark!
