Instant Kill Secret Sword!
"This is..."
"This, this could not be..."
"What a pervert!"
"They've gone mad."
The 990 talented young people watching the battle were all shocked. Even the 1008 powerful immortals in the distance were all paying attention to this battle, and many of the immortals showed expressions of shock on their faces.
"After defeating the Phantom Demon 'Galesi' with illusion magic, this guy actually wants to fight the Savage 'Rong Jun' in close combat? How is that possible!"
Lin Yan's actions were obvious. He did not take out the Extreme Divine Weapon, nor even the Sky Shattering Shuttle. Instead, he took out the "Han Guang Sword".
The Han Guang Sword is also Fifth-tier Force Weapon comparable to the Controller's Nine Divine Weapons, and is on par with Rong Jun's Earth Splitting Saber.
"He is Mental Master. Although illusionists and Controller are two different paths, they have some things in common. It is astonishing that he can have such a high level of illusion skills, but it is still understandable."
"But!"
"Martial artists and Mental Master are two completely different paths. He has mastered the third level of the Extreme Divine Weapon to such a profound degree. Could he also have made great achievements as a martial artist?"
"His opponent is Rong Jun! His self-created sword technique, which incorporates his own insights into earth and space, is extremely powerful. In terms of true strength, he can be considered the third strongest in this year's Genius Battle. In previous years, competing for first place would not have been a problem!"
All 1008 immortals were taken aback.
Everyone has their own area of expertise. A controller is Controller, and a martial artist is a martial artist! The strong focus on one aspect, and Lin Yan is a top genius among Controller.
If it were any of the other 100 or so geniuses, they could accept it, but this was Rong Jun, who had just displayed his brilliant swordsmanship!
But--
Given Lin Yan's remarkable achievements, none of the people present would doubt that he was merely trying to attract attention. So... could it be that he truly has the confidence to win?
To engage in close combat and fight Rong Jun is a truly insane idea!
At this moment, the attention of 990 talented young people and 1008 immortals was completely focused on the arena between Lin Yan and Rong Jun.
Will Lin Yan be able to defeat Rong Jun?
Or is he just testing his swordsmanship here, and if he falls short, he'll bring out his Extreme Divine Weapon again to take control of the situation?
Everyone was incredibly curious.
Rong Jun's pupils contracted as he looked at Lin Yan, who was holding the Han Guang Sword and whose aura had become sharp and piercing.
This guy...
How exactly does one cultivate?
Rong Jun's expression was solemn, and he gritted his teeth. He could accept losing to Lin Yan's Extreme Divine Weapon, after all, there was indeed a huge gap. But it was a sword... If he couldn't even fight this guy in close combat, what was the point of his grand dream of surpassing Lin Yan?
That's right.
Lin Yan was indeed prepared to fight Rong Jun with his swordsmanship. His mastery of the Extreme Divine Weapon was something Rong Jun could not challenge. However, Rong Jun was indeed a very good opponent.
The soul possesses the Psionic Amplitude Strength!
The body has the Strength Amplitude and intensity!
Whether they are martial artists or Mental Master, they all share a common foundation: the understanding of the Universe Origin Law. These laws are the true path, which can be integrated into combat using different weapons.
Although he has not yet truly grasped the essence of this "Tao".
However, the same was true for others, but in terms of the depth of his Law Comprehension, he far surpassed others, and only Bolan could rival him.
Moreover, although he mainly cultivated Mental Master, he had always diligently practiced the fundamentals of physical power generation. After giving birth to the Green Line Devouring Worm, he learned that the Green Line Devouring Worm's talent "clone" could only be used on the path of a martial artist, so he devoted more energy to the path of a martial artist.
Among the inheritances of Yun Mo Star Master Huyan Bo, the most valuable is naturally his Mental Master's inheritance, followed by the various cultivation secrets contributed by his strongest Immortal Servant, "Iron Sword Marquis".
Although "Iron Sword Marquis" is relatively weak among those Marquis, even the weakest Marquis is still Marquis. There is a huge gap between him and ordinary immortals, and each of them has an amazing destiny.
Of course, Iron Sword Marquis cultivates the Gold Law and Space Law, so most of his secret techniques are not very useful to Lin Yan. Apart from learning some basic sword techniques, Lin Yan only really studied one sword technique.
At this moment.
"The arena battle begins!" The Azure-Robed Purple-Scaled Man glanced at Lin Yan on the distant arena, a hint of surprise in his eyes, before speaking.
Moment!
The five matches have begun!
"Fight! Fight!"
The Wildman Youth let out a low growl, his whole body radiating murderous intent, and a slow, earthy-yellow aura flowed around him. "Since you're so confident, then let me see your swordsmanship, Lin Yan!"
Whoosh!
He stomped hard on the arena, rushing towards Lin Yan like a bolt of lightning, while simultaneously drawing his massive War Blade from behind him.
"Bang!"
Draw your sword!
"Come on!" Lin Yan's eyes were as sharp as blades, and his aura was completely different from usual, as if a sword had been drawn from its sheath and was shining brightly.
"Clang!"
Rong Jun appeared in front of him in an instant, let out a low shout, and swung his War Blade down with boundless ferocity, capable of splitting mountains and shattering peaks.
The sword flashed and rang out.
A dazzling, snow-white sword light, seemingly slow yet incredibly fast, surged forth in an instant.
Extremely agile, piercing through heaven and earth, seemingly without a trace, it pierced through the inside of the War Blade.
Rong Jun's expression changed, and then without hesitation, he sheathed his sword and retreated rapidly, holding the War Blade horizontally in front of his neck.
"Boom!"
The War Blade in Rong Jun's hand trembled. He was secretly alarmed. The sword looked light and slow, but its speed was extremely fast, and the force it generated was incredibly heavy.
Whoosh!
Rong Jun soared into the air, and then split into six Phantom Body from the sky. All six Phantom Body were holding War Blade and attacked Lin Yan at the same time.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The Savage Rong Jun's swordsmanship was vast and domineering, surging in from all directions like a tidal wave, as powerful as a torrent!
Lin Yan, standing among them, was like a ghost. Compared to his strange movement, his swordsmanship was ethereal and profound, light and graceful, and he managed to cut through Rong Jun's domineering and fierce blade, making it difficult for him to pose a threat.
Amidst the gathering and dispersing of sword light, other mysteries were brewing.
Something seems off.
Why did Rong Jun's sword slow down?
The geniuses watching the battle began to discuss it, filled with doubt. Their knowledge was limited, but the immortal in the distance saw through the truth at a glance.
One of the silver-scaled immortals suddenly brightened up. "Lin Yan... has he incorporated illusions into his swordsmanship?"
"That's a novel approach, and that little guy Rong Jun has fallen for it."
"There is indeed a cultivation style called 'Illusion Warrior Path,' but very few people actually practice it. Few martial artists can achieve anything in illusion. Although Lin Yan has a high level of expertise in Mental Illusion, 'Illusion Warrior Path' and illusionist are two different things."
"Truly astonishingly talented!"
While the immortals in the distance were discussing Lin Yan, Rong Jun suddenly awoke, realizing that something was wrong with him.
Wrong!
During his fight with Lin Yan, his consciousness seemed to slow down.
"Break!" Rong Jun's face was contorted with rage, his eyes filled with murderous intent. In an instant, the sword technique Conception that Lin Yan had incorporated into the "Illusion Chapter" and "Soul Seal of Bewilderment" was completely shattered!
Seeing this, Lin Yan felt a little regretful. He had been trying to develop the "Illusion Warrior Path" and had achieved remarkable results, but it still seemed shallow when facing an opponent as determined as Rong Jun.
The "Illusion Warrior Path" is different from Mental Illusion and ordinary Soul Attack. Mental Illusion are extremely sophisticated and require a high level of concentration to execute. In such cases, even attacks using psychic weapons can only exert a portion of their power, let alone close combat, which would be tantamount to suicide.
This is why the Controller, illusionist, and warrior each have their own strengths and weaknesses, and all require a lot of time to study.
Moreover, martial artists have limited mental power and no ability to cast Mental Illusion.
This is a special illusion technique that combines the use of weapons by martial artists. It does not require any mental power, but in close combat, both sides are completely focused on the battle, and some subtle changes cannot be detected at all, thus giving others an opportunity to take advantage.
Once the opponent has been hit, you can close the net and unleash the final blow. With a single sword strike, you will simultaneously unleash an illusionary attack, ensuring a fatal kill.
He has Green Line Devouring Worm Clone. The Green Line Devouring Worm is a natural-born Soul Master, and his cultivation level is also very high. It would be a waste not to study this.
However, he currently has limited time to study it, and his application of it is not yet mature.
"This guy..."
"We can't delay any longer. His swordsmanship is more profound than I imagined. Ordinary moves are not enough to put too much pressure on him. Moreover, he has many tricks up his sleeve. We mustn't fall into his trap." Rong Jun was secretly alarmed.
The lingering effects of the previous experience still left him somewhat shaken. Martial artists generally have methods to deal with the Soul Attack of Mental Master, such as gathering their mental power and strengthening their will, which can effectively withstand the impact of mental power. However, these methods are of little use against illusions.
Even he almost lost his way.
"Lin Yan, be careful, I'm about to unleash my strongest sword technique!" Rong Jun roared, "Savage Cleaver!"
Sky Tearer, Earth Splitter!
Rong Jun's gaze was resolute, and his aura reached its peak. Space Twist and the earth trembled. It was like a slash unleashed by Savage War God.
Boom!
With a vast black aura and the force to destroy everything, it swept across the sky, its domineering and overwhelming blade light suddenly spreading in all directions.
Lin Yan's gaze sharpened. With this strike, his body was completely locked in place. The earthy yellow aura rippled slowly, and the space itself seemed to freeze. This was the purest strike, infused with all of Rong Jun's insights!
But just as that black tide of blades was about to collide with Lin Yan...
"Laugh!"
Rong Jun's vision was filled with Lin Yan's figure and a flash of cold light from a sword.
It was an absolutely beautiful sword strike.
The light and dazzling sword light came into view.
Like the rosy dawn appearing on the horizon, or the moon obscured by clouds, it is ethereal and unpredictable, yet free and unrestrained, containing a spiritual charm that stirs the heart.
Lin Yan placed the transparent, Han Guang Sword in front of him, gently blew on it, and beads of blood rolled off the blade.
He chuckled softly, "I've only learned this one sword technique."
"Instant Kill Secret Sword!"
He had barely finished speaking.
Call!
Rong Jun's tall body crashed to the ground, and countless drops of blood, as if alive, gushed from his throat!
