Jade Maiden Eighteen Swords

"Yi Yun, I never imagined that my first battle on my journey to Tai'a Divine City would be against a mere fourteen-year-old child like you."

Feng Lin looked at Yi Yun and slowly took off her palace dress.

Feng Lin has a slender figure and is the Heavenly Proud Daughter the Cloud Dragon Divine Kingdom. Although she wears a tight-fitting battle suit under her palace dress, which does not reveal any skin, the sight of her taking off her clothes on the field still makes some overly energetic young men's blood boil.

The youths from the Cloud Dragon Divine Kingdom immediately cheered, shouting Feng Lin's name.

Feng Lin is extremely popular among the Seventy-Two Towers of Cloud Dragon, and she is the object of admiration for many male trial participants.

Unlike Qian Shui Pangzi, Feng Lin was completely unmoved by the cheers. She simply looked at Yi Yun, now dressed in a tight-fitting battle suit that perfectly accentuated Feng Lin already well-developed figure.

She slowly took out a wide and tall ice-blue metal box from her Space Ring.

At the top of this ice-blue metal box is a slender sword hilt, which is more than a foot long.

This is the sword case.

However, the sword case was much wider than Feng Lin's waist, almost like a door panel, which was really out of place with Feng Lin's figure.

Yi Yun took a deep look at the weapon. "It's truly... a strange weapon, but... you don't seem to be much older than me."

Yi Yun found it amusing. These privileged kids loved to act mature for their age, calling others "children" even though they were only a few years older. However, it seemed this girl was their leader; she was probably used to being a youth leader, hence her self-perception of maturity.

"My sword is nothing special..."

As Feng Lin spoke, she lightly pressed the sword case with one hand, seemingly triggering some mechanism. With a soft "click," the sword case popped open, and smaller sword cases separated from the main sword case, splitting apart to both sides.

There were a total of eighteen sword cases, arranged in a semi-circle like a peacock spreading its tail feathers, with each sword case containing a sword hilt.

"Hmm? This is..."

Yi Yun looked at the ice-blue fan-shaped sword case in front of him. This weapon looked very cool.

One person, using eighteen swords? Do the people of the Cloud Dragon Divine Kingdom really like using so many swords?

Feng Lin smiled slightly, "My sword is different..."

As she spoke, she gently drew a sword. The scabbard was made of an unknown, ice-blue metal, as was the sword itself, a sword about four feet long. The blade was less than three fingers wide, and the blade had blue patterns on it, like shattered ice patterns, which were very beautiful.

Feng Lin said, "Normally, when I fight someone, four sword strikes are enough. But today, in my battle with you, my cultivation is suppressed to the early stage of the Origin Foundation Realm. I wonder how many sword strikes I can unleash? Perhaps I'll unleash them all."

As Feng Lin spoke, her figure swayed. Then, an unbelievable scene unfolded: behind Feng Lin, the misty vapor blurred her shadow, making it appear as if many afterimages had materialized.

Then, these phantoms actually materialized, and one by one they walked out from behind Feng Lin. These girls looked exactly like Feng Lin, almost like twins.

"Um!?"

Yi Yun was taken aback. What kind of technique was this? A clone technique?

How can one person be divided into several at once?

Yi Yun knew that this was not an afterimage created by speed, but a real entity!

Each of the Feng Lin was dressed identically, and they all came to the fan-shaped sword box and drew a sword.

In the blink of an eye, nine Feng Lin appeared in front of Yi Yun, each holding a sword.

"Let our battle begin with the Nine Swords!"

Nine Feng Lin drew their swords together, a row of ice-blue Longsword flashing with the cold light of shattered ice patterns, creating an incredibly magnificent scene.

"Yi Yun, this is Water System Replication Mirror." Cang Yan's voice transmission suddenly rang in Yi Yun's ears.

"Oh? Water Mirror?" Yi Yun was taken aback. The Water Element Law of the Five Elements Law is a law with many variations. Different martial artists may comprehend the Water Law in completely different ways.

For example, the Water Mirror Feng Lin is currently using is a manipulation-type skill.

Or it could be water-based healing, water-based defense, water-based attack, or even water-based alchemy.

Each realm of artistic conception, once fully comprehended, can give birth to a top-tier powerhouse, or a support talent that various forces vie to recruit.

At this moment, the nine Feng Lin formed a circle, surrounding Yi Yun in the center.

Yi Yun knew very well which Feng Lin was the real one, but even if he recognized her, it wouldn't make much difference. The Water Mirror wasn't meant to confuse the opponent, but rather to be used directly to kill the enemy.

"Nine Sword Maidens Formation!"

The nine Feng Lin moved in unison! Their movements were perfectly synchronized, with four swords thrusting towards Yi Yun's head. Yi Yun swung his sword, deflecting all four swords at once. At that moment, between the four girls' bodies, four more swords emerged like venomous snakes!

The other four girls, behind the four in front, attacked in unison, their swordsmanship incredibly sharp!

Yi Yun tired to exert any force with his current moves, so he used his Subtle Movement Technique to shift his body to the side and dodge the second attack.

Just then, another Feng Lin appeared, as swift as a wisp of smoke.

This Feng Lin is Feng Lin's true form!

"Autumn Water Sword!"

As Feng Lin unleashed her sword strike, her vital energy formed a shimmering, autumn-water-like phantom in the sky. The setting sun cast its rays, the evening glow drifted by, and the shimmering autumn lake seemed to be sprinkled with shattered gold—a breathtaking sight!

The beauty of this sword strike was mesmerizing, but Yi Yun knew that within this beauty lay a deadly trap!

Yi Yun gathered his vital energy, and a phantom of Mountain of Blades and Sea of Blood appeared behind him, as if a hellish realm had descended upon the world. This phantom formed a stark contrast with Feng Lin's Autumn Water Sword.

The Thirty-two Sword Dao Characters: Slaughter as the Heart!

Yi Yun unleashed a murderous aura, his blade stained with blood, and crimson energy burst forth, shattering the autumn waters and sunset before him!

"Clang!"

The swords clashed, producing a melodious, clear sound!

The powerful impact caused Feng Lin Yi Yun to stagger backward simultaneously. Feng Lin's mind raced—

The Twelve Sword Maidens Formation!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Three more young girls flew out, and the sword box emitted a clear ringing sound, releasing three Longsword that landed in the hands of the three girls!

The three girls charged straight at Yi Yun, their swords aimed directly at Yi Yun face!

Just then, Yi Yun sheathed his sword. Seeing the continuous attacks from these Water Mirror, a murderous intent flashed in Yi Yun's eyes. He bit his tongue hard and gathered his vital energy.

<The Tai'a Sacred Law>!

Boom!

Yi Yun's Radiant Sun True Qi erupted, forming a phantom image of Yi Yun Tanggu Fusang Tree behind him.

Yi Yun unleashed a slash, carrying the might of the blazing sun.

The Thirty-two Sword Dao Characters: King's Reign Over the World!

Flames blazed, Pure Yang Vital Energy surged, and the sky above the arena was completely dyed a crimson gold color by the Pure Yang Fire, as if a sun had fallen to earth!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The three girls who were at the forefront of the attack exploded under the bright sun, their bodies bursting apart and turning into water vapor, which instantly evaporated under the Pure Yang Flame.

Three Longsword flew down.

Yi Yun struck successfully and didn't stop. He and his sword transformed into a streak of light and flew out. His target was the fan-shaped sword box standing on the ground!

He could see that the core of Feng Lin's Sword Maiden Formation was this sword box, and Yi Yun wanted to break the "momentum" of the sword box!

Seeing Yi Yun's actions, Feng Lin snorted coldly!

Sword Maiden Formation – Ten Thousand Swords Unleashed!

In that instant, Feng Lin's sword box shot out ten thousand golden rays, each ray of golden light being a Sword Qi!

The remaining six swords emitted a clear hum as they flew from their sheaths and charged towards Yi Yun!

Six swords, plus ten thousand Sword Light!

Yi Yun's pupils contracted, and he quickly retreated!

Such a dense Sword Light was impossible to dodge, Yi Yun swung his blade in a slashing motion as he retreated.

"Crack! Crack! Crack!"

The Sword Light clashed, and Yi Yun's Protective Vital Energy was repeatedly pierced by the Longsword!

At that moment, Feng Lin attacked from behind Yi Yun.

The Eighteen Sword Maidens Formation!

Feng Lin circulated her vital energy to its limit, and eighteen mirror images appeared at the same time. Along with the three mirror images that Yi Yun had previously destroyed with his Radiant Sun True Qi, they were also re-condensed. As long as Feng Lin's main body's vital energy was not exhausted, the mirror images would continue to appear!

Of the eighteen Feng Lin, twelve wielded swords, while the other six used sword fingers, their slender fingers emitting a cold light identical to that of Longsword!

Ten thousand Sword Light, along with eighteen Feng Lin, attacked from both sides!

At that moment, all the audience members held their breath and focused their attention!

With no chance to dodge, Yi Yun focused his mind on the Purple Crystal, drawing upon the power of the Pure Yang Spirit. In an instant, all the Pure Yang Energy in the surrounding space converged on Yi Yun.

Pure Yang Spirit, explode!

"Boom!"

Within the Purple Crystal, the Pure Yang Spirit that had been burning quietly erupted completely, as if a sun was being conceived within Yi Yun's body Yi Yun drew upon the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi within his body, launching indiscriminate attacks in all directions! Even the phantom of Tanggu Fusang Tree behind Yi Yun erupted along with it.

The flames scorched Feng Lin's seventeen mirror images, which were all repelled, along with the myriad Sword Light, which shattered completely.

Even though Feng Lin's physical body broke through the Pure Yang Flame, her sword momentum was greatly weakened.

The sword from the main body pierced towards Yi Yun's heart!

"Snap!"

The Sword Qi pierced Yi Yun's Protective Vital Energy, colliding fiercely with the Pure Yang Energy. Yi Yun's body flew backward, like a kite, flying diagonally outward until it reached outside the Divine Desolation Stage.

Feng Lin's sword strike had lost its momentum and ultimately failed to harm Yi Yun.

Yi Yun pressed one hand lightly to his chest, adjusting his breathing and internal energy, and looked up at Feng Lin.

At this moment, Feng Lin's long hair was slightly disheveled, and her clothes were torn in many places. Even with the protection of her Protective Vital Energy, her outfit still could not withstand such sharp sword energy.

Behind her, all seventeen mirror images exploded, turning into a puddle of water.

Yi Yun's attack drew upon the power of the Pure Yang Spirit. Although it consumed a great deal of his energy, he managed to break Feng Lin's Eighteen Sword Maidens Formation.

The audience around the Divine Desolation Stage was completely silent; the battle was too intense.

In comparison, the previous battles may have been equally intense, but they were ultimately just sword fights, full of domineering and passionate energy, but lacking in visual splendor.

Unlike this battle, the dazzling lights and the picturesque aerial phenomena were a true feast for the eyes. (To be continued~^~)
