"Oh no!"
Even Star Slayer betrayed a flicker of panic when he faced Xu Ziming's Jinghong Dance for the first time.
It was too fast. The Jinghong Dance Xu Ziming had developed himself was already powerful, but after learning the Heavenly Demon Dance, his movements had become as elusive as a phantom.
The Jinghong Dance had become even more terrifyingly fluid. Now, with the combined reinforcement of the Five Prison Sword Art's Prison-Suppressing Sword Momentum and the Mortal-Transforming Sword Intent, the move's power had increased dramatically again.
At this moment, it already carried a trace of a grandmaster's might.
Clang!
Star Slayer barely blocked one strike before a sharp pain shot through his shoulder. Xu Ziming's sword had already pierced it.
But just as he swiftly adjusted his stance and tried to seize Xu Ziming's sword, the pressure on his shoulder suddenly eased.
In less than a breath, Xu Ziming vanished again.
I absolutely can't let this continue!
He understood perfectly well that if this went on, Xu Ziming would wear him down to death sooner or later.
He had to counterattack.
"Mountain-Suppressing Spear!"
With a furious roar, his spear came crashing down like a massive mountain.
He didn't need to know Xu Ziming's exact location. With one downward strike, he could attack the entire area.
This was the Mountain-Suppressing Spear!
That was what finally interrupted Xu Ziming's Jinghong Dance, forcing him to retreat.
The Jinghong Dance's strongest final strike missed completely.
Yet even while airborne, Xu Ziming continued to swing his sword.
"Dragon Trap!"
Your Mountain-Suppressing Spear can crush everything around you, but I'll wrap you completely in my Sword Qi.
If Xu Ziming had judged correctly, the Mountain-Suppressing Spear wasn't a technique that could be stopped at will either.
Sure enough, an endless torrent of Sword Qi instantly
