As the light of the Stone Armor Shield faded, Chen Xiaojun drew a deep breath, determination gleaming in his eyes. Now was the time to strike back.
He tightened his grip on the Fish Intestine Sword in his left hand, feeling its cool touch pour boundless strength into him.
"Third Soul Skill-Sweep Through a Thousand Armies!" Chen Xiaojun shouted in a low voice, his confidence impossible to dismiss.
As his words fell, powerful soul power surged out of him, forming an invisible storm.
With his first strike, Chen Xiaojun swung the Fish Intestine Sword, unleashing a razor-sharp Water-Fire Blade that swept toward Xiong Li, the Black Iron Giant Bear Soul Douluo.
Wherever the Fish Intestine Sword passed, it sliced the air apart with a piercing whistle.
A flicker of surprise crossed Xiong Li's eyes.
Yet this first strike of the Fish Intestine Sword struck Xiong Li's bear claw, knocking it up and aside and leaving his center wide open.
For his second strike, Chen Xiaojun moved even faster, his movements sharper still.
He swung his weapon again, unleashing an even fiercer Water-Fire Blade that swept savagely toward Xiong Li.
This time, Xiong Li was prepared. He swiftly summoned a soul power barrier to block it.
However, this second Water-Fire Blade was fiercer and faster than the first. Before Xiong Li's hastily raised barrier could solidify, the Fish Intestine Sword's defense-breaking property shattered it, and the sword struck his body directly.
By the third strike, Chen Xiaojun had fully found his rhythm. His movements flowed like drifting clouds and running water, as though he were dancing with water and fire.
He swung the Fish Intestine Sword again, trailing an even more dazzling swirl of red and blue as he swept toward Xiong Li with the speed of thunder striking before anyone
