An Unexpected Result

When Chen Shurui's Seven Kill Sword slashed at Ma Liang again, there was a loud bang, and the blade was fiercely knocked away by the flame barrier.

He felt a powerful backlash surge through it, and his arm went slightly numb.

He was secretly shocked. The flame barrier's defensive power was actually this strong; ordinary strikes from his Seven Kill Sword could not break through it at all.

At that moment, Ma Liang was like a phoenix bathed in fire, his entire body shrouded in blazing flames, his momentum soaring like a rainbow.

Immediately after, he swung his fist fiercely. Dozens of streams of fist force transformed into a lifelike fire phoenix, carrying a scorching Flame Impact wave as it charged swiftly toward Chen Shurui, the power of its Flame Impact wave bearing an incomparably fierce momentum.

Facing this sudden attack, Chen Shurui instinctively used "Horizontal Peak Side Ridge" from the Thirteen Solitary Peak Swords.

He held the Seven Kill Sword horizontally before his chest, the blade giving off an indestructible aura, like a towering mountain peak standing amid wind and rain.

At the same time, his body shifted nimbly to the side. Using his sword as a ridge, he raised several more connected peaks beside the mountain, building a solid defense.

Bang, bang, bang! The fire phoenix collided violently with the mountain-like sword. Under the continuous impacts of the Flame Impact wave, Chen Shurui was shaken backward the whole way,
