A Stunning Sword Strike, Heavenly Flying Immortal
Before the Heavenly Tribulation had passed, the Black Water Mysterious Snake was actually being chased by Ying Wushuang throughout the entire Dragon Tomb. On the other side, under the Great Five Elements Sword Formation, Ying Qianshan, who was seriously injured and whose injuries were getting worse after a fierce battle, was gradually losing the advantage he had in the battle. Instead, the initiative was showing signs of falling into Zhuge Xiang's hands.
Judging from the current situation, it seems that Zhuge Xiang and Ying Wushuang are gradually gaining the upper hand. However, Zhuge Xiang and the others are well aware that all of this is based on the deterrent effect of the Heavenly Tribulation.
If Ying Wushuang dies under the Heavenly Tribulation, or if the Black Water Mysterious Snake defeats Ying Wushuang after she completes her Tribulation Transcendence, this so-called situation will immediately collapse.
"No, we can't waste any more time like this. We must defeat Ying Qianshan before Ying Wushuang Heavenly Tribulation is complete," Zhuge Xiang thought firmly to himself, deeply understanding the current situation.
With this thought in mind, his movements became even more ferocious, causing Ying Qianshan to retreat steadily.
Defeating Ying Qianshan? An ordinary Zhuge Xiang would never dare to have such a thought, but today, after unleashing the Great Five Elements Sword Formation for the first time and achieving miraculous results, severely injuring Ying Qianshan, Zhuge Xiang dared to have such a thought.
Zhuge Xiang understood, Ying Qianshan naturally understood as well. Once Ying Wushuang's Heavenly Tribulation was over, regardless of success or failure, the situation would change. Therefore, Zhuge Xiang attacked with all his might, wanting to defeat Ying Qianshan in the shortest possible time, but Ying Qianshan gritted his teeth and persevered.
As long as they can withstand Zhuge Xiang's attacks for this period of time, once Ying Wushuang's Heavenly Tribulation is over, it will be their turn to turn the tide.
The Black Water Mysterious Snake was being pursued by Ying Wushuang. Although it was in a sorry state, the Black Water Mysterious Snake was determined to evade, and Ying Wushuang chance of catching it. Moreover, the power of the Heavenly Tribulation would eventually come to an end.
The chase and escape lasted for about Half a Tea Interval of tea's time. During this period, Ying Wushuang's energy expenditure was much greater than that of the Black Water Mysterious Snake. After all, in addition to pursuing the enemy, Ying Wushuang also had to expend most of her mental energy to withstand the magnificent heavenly Heavenly Tribulation.
In the time it takes to drink Half a Tea Interval, Eighty-One Mixed Tribulation Lightning Bolts finally passed. The deep black Tribulation Clouds that had gathered above Ying Wushuang's head also slowly dissipated. With the passing of the Immortal-Demon Tribulation, Ying Wushuang could be considered to have successfully established himself as a cultivator at the First Layer of the Great Accomplishment Stage Realm...
Surviving Heavenly Tribulation is something to be happy about, especially Immortal-Demon Tribulation. However, after surviving the Heavenly Tribulation, Ying Wushuang didn't feel much joy. After the Tribulation Transcendence, Ying Wushuang was almost completely exhausted. The real crisis lay with Ying Qianshan and the Black Water Mysterious Snake after the Heavenly Tribulation.
Sure enough, after the Heavenly Tribulation was over, the Black Water Mysterious Snake, no longer threatened by the Heavenly Tribulation, naturally had no need to escape. Seeing that Ying Wushuang was almost exhausted, it turned around, looked at her, opened its mouth wide, and spat out a layer of black bubbles.
Although the Dragon Spitting Pearl served as a defense, Ying Wushuang was no longer very strong and was directly immobilized by the bubbles spewed out by the Black Water Mysterious Snake, unable to move.
"Finally got this guy done..." Seeing Ying Wushuang imprisoned by his Black Water Prison Technique, the Black Water Mysterious Snake breathed a long sigh of relief.
If someone had told it beforehand that dealing with a Cultivator at the Tenth Layer of the Tribulation Crossing Realm would take so much of its time, the Black Water Mysterious Snake would never have believed it.
After imprisoning Ying Wushuang with its Black Water Prison Technique, the Black Water Mysterious Snake was now completely free of worries. Its cultivation, comparable to that of Gods and Buddhas of all Heavens, was fully unleashed, causing the space of the Dragon Tomb to tremble. Its magnificent and powerful force continuously shot out in all directions within the Dragon Tomb, causing the space of the Dragon Tomb to collapse even more severely in an instant.
The Black Water Prison Technique imprisoned Ying Wushuang within it. As the collapse and destruction of the Dragon Tomb worsened, within moments, nearly a third of the space had already collapsed. Ying Wushuang shouted loudly, but unfortunately, trapped within the Black Water Prison Technique, her voice could not be heard.
"Ying Wushuang has been imprisoned?" On the other side, Ying Qianshan, Zhuge Xiang was slowly gaining the upper hand in the fierce battle and could only defend passively, saw that Ying Wushuang was imprisoned by the Black Water Prison Technique of the Black Water Mysterious Snake and his eyes lit up slightly.
Unlike the Black Water Mysterious Snake's objective, Ying Qianshan entered the Dragon Tomb solely for Ying Wushuang's sake. Now, Ying Wushuang was exhausted and even imprisoned by the Black Water Mysterious Snake. Naturally, Ying Qianshan, who was already severely injured, would not linger in this dangerous place.
With a slight thought, he feinted an attack and then charged towards Ying Wushuang.
"Damn it!" Seeing Ying Qianshan's actions, Zhuge Xiang's expression changed drastically. He knew that Ying Qianshan's target was Ying Wushuang. Ying Wushuang had just survived Heavenly Tribulation and was on her last legs. How could she possibly escape Ying Qianshan?
"Explosive Steps!" Zhuge Xiang moved swiftly, chasing after Ying Qianshan like a ghost.
However, a single Explosive Steps wasn't enough to cover the distance. Following the Explosive Steps, Zhuge Xiang's figure blurred again, transforming into a shadow too fast for the naked eye to see, and wrapped around Ying Qianshan with Three Consecutive Slashes!
With Explosive Steps followed by Three Consecutive Slashes and two movement Skill, Zhuge Xiang's body flashed through the air for a moment before catching up with Ying Qianshan. The Immortal Slaying Sword in his hand landed on Ying Qianshan's chest.
However, Zhuge Xiang's Three Consecutive Slashes only made Ying Qianshan's face paler slightly. Ignoring Zhuge Xiang's attack, Ying Qianshan stretched out his palm and directly grabbed at Ying Wushuang, who was imprisoned in the Black Water Prison Technique...
"It's his Half-Immortal Artifact -grade inner armor." Although his Three Consecutive Slashes attack wasn't high enough, the attack of the Immortal Slaying Sword was not low. Seeing that his Sword Slash had only made Ying Qianshan's face turn a little pale, Zhuge Xiang's gaze fell on Ying Qianshan's chest.
The pale silver inner armor—it was clearly this pale silver inner armor that had blocked most of his attacks.
Bang!
Although the Black Water Prison Technique is an extremely powerful confinement for those inside, breaking it from the outside is quite easy. After enduring Zhuge Xiang's Black Water Prison Technique Three Consecutive Slashes, Ying Qianshan directly reached into the water prison, shattering it. At the same time, he grabbed Ying Wushuang and, without pausing, fled into the distance with movements as smooth as flowing water.
"Trying to escape?" Zhuge Xiang's expression changed drastically as he watched Ying Qianshan withstand his attack with the help of his Half-Immortal Artifact and forcibly take Ying Wushuang away.
His gaze sharpened, and then a magnificent, noble, and elegant Sword Intent emanated from Zhuge Xiang's body. The powerful Sword Intent, like wind blowing through clouds, quickly permeated the entire Dragon Tomb.
Holding a long sword, his long hair flying in the wind, Zhuge Xiang at this moment seemed to have transformed into Exiled Immortal descended from the Immortal Realm. The true spirit of immortality emanated from Zhuge Xiang's Sword Intent...
"What's going on with this Sword Intent?" As Zhuge Xiang's Distant Resonance Sword Intent spread out, Ying Qianshan felt an instinctive sense of crisis. He turned around and saw that Zhuge Xiang's temperament had changed drastically. He was secretly shocked and became extremely vigilant.
"What kind of Sword Intent is this?" Even the Black Water Mysterious Snake, which was doing its best to destroy the Dragon Tomb, stopped moving when it sensed Zhuge Xiang's Sword Intent. Its golden serpent eyes stared at Zhuge Xiang with surprise and uncertainty.
This Sword Intent is powerful, but what's most captivating is its beauty, as if it were Sword Intent that couldn't possibly exist in the mortal world...
At this moment, Zhuge Xiang's demeanor underwent a dramatic change. Even the Immortal Slaying Sword, which was filled with fierce and malevolent energy, seemed to transform into a graceful and agile celestial Immortal Sword rather than Demonic Sword. The aura emanating from him became noble, elegant, and ethereal...
"Heavenly Flying Immortal!" Zhuge Xiang uttered four words softly, and then, the Immortal Slaying Sword in his hand was drawn, a Sword Light rushing towards Ying Qianshan.
Zhuge Xiang's sword strike was not actually fast; everyone could clearly see its trajectory. However, in Ying Qianshan's eyes, it seemed as if no matter what he did, he could not dodge it.
Moreover, this sword strike was so dazzling and beautiful that it made people want to immerse themselves in it and not want to leave.
At this moment, everything in Heaven and Earth Dragon Tomb seemed to lose its color, except for this dazzling Sword Light, which seemed to have come from ancient times, captivating people's minds.
The exquisite Sword Light is beyond description; it is a beauty brimming with deadly danger. Even knowing its danger, one feels a willingness to die beneath its breathtaking Swordsmanship...
The sword left an arc of Sword Light in the air, an arc clearly imprinted in everyone's minds. This sword, seemingly just a single strike, gave the feeling of thousands of Sword Light. This feeling was very strange, yet it felt perfectly natural.
A sword strike aimed at Ying Qianshan, a beautiful sword strike. Ying Qianshan stared blankly at this sword strike filled with danger.
It wasn't the sheer force of the sword that locked him in place, rendering him immobile; rather, he still retained control of his body. Yet, Ying Qianshan was unwilling to move even a single step to dodge the sword, as if he feared that if he did, this otherworldly sword strike would vanish.
"Move! Move your body now..." Ying Qianshan still had control of his body, but he was unwilling to move. Facing Zhuge Xiang's dazzling sword strike, Ying Qianshan subconsciously shouted urgently. He knew very well what the consequences of this sword strike would be if he did not dodge.
Pfft.
With a single sword strike, blood blossomed. The crimson blood, under this flawless sword strike, was like the finishing touch, making the beauty of the strike even more vivid. Like a celestial being descending from the Heavenly Flying Immortal, the sword fell, leaving a Human Heart sword wound on Ying Qianshan's neck, dripping with blood. (To be continued...)
