Chapter 329

Her azure eyes had turned Dan Zhu without her noticing, and a touch of crimson had quietly appeared beside her pure white sideburns.

"Here I am!"

Xiao Shi's voice came from the Stone Peak Sword.

Then, in Luo Mio's and everyone else's sight, a dark red sword aura slashed horizontally towards Luo Mio.

Upon seeing this, Luo Mio's eyes flickered, golden electricity flashed in them, and then the Raven Feather Blade in her hand slashed diagonally towards the dark red sword energy, while the golden sword energy slashed at the Moon with equal speed.

Then—

"----boom!"

Luo Mio and Xiao Shi's sword energies clashed at the same time, and an explosion instantly followed the collision.

The dust generated by the explosion also instantly blocked their vision.

However, for Luo Mio and Xiao Shi, the cricket dust was no problem.

The next moment, Luo Mio's mind stirred, and she instantly raised her Raven Feather Blade and slashed forward.

"—Clang!"

A crisp sound of weapons clashing rang out.

Suddenly, a very sharp spear was deflected by Luo Mio's Raven Feather Blade in front of Luo Mio.

Just moments before, Xiao Shi had hurled a swift and powerful "Long Spear - Straightforward Spear" at Luo Mio.

After deflecting "Long Spear - Straight Strike," Luo Mio also pushed off with her toes, her figure instantly stepping on the chains and rapidly attacking Xiao Shi.

Seeing this, Xiao Shi smiled and jumped onto the chains, rushing towards Luo Mio at the same speed.

Looking at Luo Mio, Xiao Shi also took out the other weapon from his three weapons.

Long-range weapon – "Chain Blade: Yin Yang Weapon"

Then the blade suddenly lengthened, transforming into segments of chain blades.

The chain blades seemed to tear through space, launching a series of attacks on all parts of Luo Mio's body simultaneously.

Luo Mio's reaction was also very quick.

Crimson eyes instantly spotted the spot where the surrounding space was about to shatter.

Then, in a single second, the Raven Feather Blade in his hand unleashed countless combos, each strike landing precisely where space was about to shatter.

Then—

"—Clang clang clang clang clang clang!"

The sword energy unleashed by Luo Mio remained at the point where space ruptured, and the sword energy instantly blocked the attack of the chain blade the moment it broke through space.

Seeing that his chain blade attack was blocked by Luo Mio, Xiao Shi instantly withdrew his "Chain Blade: Yin Yang Weapon" and then took out his "Sword: Too Much Talk Will Kill".

In just a short while, the two figures arrived in front of each other.

Both of them had red eyes, but one was calm and composed, while the other was arrogant and confident.

Then, the hands holding the swords in both of their hands moved at the same time.

Then, in front of everyone, the sharp blades and tips of their swords collided instantly.

"Clang!"

The clash of swords produced a crisp, clear clang.

The instant Luo Mio and Xiao Shi's swords were deflected, their wrists twisted, and they slashed at each other at the same time.

"Clang!"

"—Clang clang clang clang!"

At the moment of each collision, the two once again brandished their swords and slashed at each other mercilessly, each strike aimed at killing the other.

Luo Mio watched as the figure disappeared before her eyes, her eyes flickering slightly.

During her duel with Xiao Shi, Luo Mio also noticed the differences.

Xiao Shi's swordsmanship is essentially not much different from that of his teacher, Fu Hua.

However, from every slash Xiao Shi made, Luo Mio could clearly feel that Xiao Shi's swordsmanship was filled with more flamboyant, confident, and powerful emotions, while her teacher's was calm, steady, and solid.

At this moment, Xiao Shi's attack was also slashing diagonally down towards Luo Mio. Upon seeing this, Luo Mio's eyes flashed, and she gently twisted her wrist. The Raven Feather Blade did not slash towards "Sword - Too Much Talk Will Kill", but instead sliced across the sharp blade and then flicked it away.

The sword "Too Much Talk Leads to Death" was knocked away, but Xiao Shi did not show any panic. Instead, he showed a triumphant expression.

Upon seeing Xiao Shi's expression, Luo Mio's eyes widened in surprise.

Then Luo Mio suddenly noticed that, without her noticing, another weapon had appeared in Xiao Shi's other hand.

"Chain Blade - Yin Yang Weapon"

Xiao Shi gently swung the chain blade.

Luo Mio's mind immediately stirred, and she quickly retreated a few steps.

The moment Luo Mio withdrew from Xiao Shi's side, the space around where Luo Mio had just been standing shattered!

Then countless dark red chains shot out from it and rushed rapidly toward the spot where Luo Mio had just been standing.

If Luo Mio hadn't retreated so quickly, that one attack would probably have been enough to decide the outcome.

"Chain Blade - Heroes never show mercy!"

Luo Mio, who had retreated, looked at Xiao Shi, her crimson eyes narrowing slightly.

'The "Lightning Eye" didn't work...'

'Did the use of my powers interfere with my perception and senses...?'

Seeing that Luo Mio had dodged his attack, Xiao Shi was not angry at all, but looked at Luo Mio with admiration.

Then Xiao Shi looked at Luo Mio and showed a confident, healthy smile.

"Let's begin the second round!"

After saying that, Xiao Shi gently moved his hand.

Suddenly, a dark red meteor streaked rapidly toward Xiao Shi from the sky not far away.

Upon closer inspection, the rapidly moving dark red meteor turned out to be an incredibly heavy, bladeless sword!

Just as the bladeless heavy sword was about to strike Xiao Shi, Xiao Shi extended his right hand and instantly grasped the bladeless heavy sword in his own hand.

"Hidden Box - Knife Hidden in Sheath!"

Seeing Xiao Shi grasp the bladeless heavy sword "Hidden Box - Sheathed Blade", Luo Mio's lips curled up slightly.

"Bring it on!"

After saying that, Luo Mio once again charged towards Xiao Shi with her Raven Feather Blade.

Chapter Twenty-Two: Herrscher Form!

"Clang! Clang! Clang!—!"

On the rusty chains, Luo Mio and Xiao Shi collide once again.

"Clang!"

Luo Mio, wielding the Raven Feather Blade, forcefully deflected "Hidden Box: Sheathed Blade".

But in the instant he was knocked away, Xiao Shi twisted his wrist and once again swung the bladeless heavy sword at Luo Mio.

Left with no other choice, Luo Mio once again had to defend against Xiao Shi's attack.

"Clang!"

Luo Mio frowned slightly as she used her Raven Feather Blade to block Xiao Shi's blunt heavy sword.

'So heavy...'

Xiao Shi's every strike caused Luo Mio's hand holding the Raven Feather Blade to tremble slightly.

At times, Luo Mio even hallucinated that the Raven Feather Blade in her hand was emitting a mournful cry as if it were about to shatter.

In that brief moment when Luo Mio was slightly distracted, Xiao Shi seized the opportunity, raised his blunt heavy sword high, and slashed down at Luo Mio.

Upon seeing this, Luo Mio quickly took several steps back.

"Boom--!"

The powerful blow struck the rusty chain instantly, causing the entire chain to shake violently.

"Click..."

A crisp cracking sound came from the spot where Xiao Shi had just attacked with "Hidden Box - Sheathed Blade".

Upon hearing the voice, Luo Mio's eyes flashed, and she seized the opportunity.

The Raven Feather Blade in his hand instantly slashed towards the location from which the shattering sound came.

The golden sword energy stood at the point where the chain broke, and immediately... cracks began to spread across the entire chain.

Seeing this, Xiao Shi threw down the "Hidden Box - Sheathed Knife" and then stepped on it.

"Sword Riding Flight!"

Luo Mio's eyes also flashed with a faint light, and then she gathered a Space Membrane under her feet and stood on it.

After glancing at the bottomless ground below, Luo Mio also raised her head to look at Xiao Shi, Sword Riding Flight in front of her.

"..."

The two stared at each other in silence.

"—Whoosh!"

Just then, several flying swords flashing with dark red light suddenly shot towards Luo Mio from below.

A golden current flashed deep within Luo Mio's eyes.

Then, several golden lightning bolts suddenly appeared around Luo Mio.

"Fearless Limit: Chaos!"

"Clang clang clang—!"

Several crisp sounds rang out, and golden lightning instantly struck down the incoming dark red flying sword.

Seeing this, Xiao Shi also gently raised his hand.

The flying sword that Luo Mio had knocked away then reappeared beside Xiao Shi.

Looking at the flying sword that appeared beside Xiao Shi, Luo Mio slowly let out a breath.

Then, in an instant, Luo Mio's eyes flashed, and she took a step forward.

In an instant, Luo Mio's figure appeared like lightning, diagonally above Xiao Shi.

Golden lightning bolts were seen swirling around Luo Mio's body.

"Lunar eclipse"!

The Raven Feather Blade had been stored in the Imaginary Space by Luo Mio at some point, and a pair of dark purple gauntlets, which were entwined with black threads yet exuded a mysterious and violent aura, appeared on Luo Mio's arm.

"Nuada of the Brilliant Light"!

A punch filled with violent lightning suddenly slammed towards Xiao Shi.

Upon seeing this scene, Xiao Shi's crimson eyes also flashed with an eerie light.

In the blink of an eye, Luo Mio's fist was already in front of Xiao Shi.

But the instant Luo Mio struck Xiao Shi, Xiao Shi's figure exploded like an illusion.

"He came without a trace, but left with a mark (evasion) - his fragrance vanished and his shadow scattered, leaving a deafening shock!"

'Phantom?!'

With a thought, Luo Mio also noticed that Xiao Shi's figure slowly appeared behind him.

'The power to control consciousness and memory, that's really troublesome!'

With a gentle wave of his hand, Xiao Shi sent countless flying swords around him transforming into dark red meteors that shot rapidly toward Luo Mio.
