Nightmare Douluo's fighting method is extremely strange. His Martial Soul has no entity and can only exist attached to the Illusionary Realm.
He continued to spread his Soul Power around, and then created a large amount of mist.
These are Illusionary Realm from Sleep Demon Douluo.
Just a little bit of that mist will give people extremely realistic hallucinations.
Under his full strength, various distorted images flashed before Ji Juechen's eyes.
Sometimes his own sword pierced his chest, sometimes his most trusted companion attacked him from behind, and sometimes the whole world was spinning upside down, making him unable to even stand.
But Ji Juechen doesn't like this at all.
No matter what illusions you have or what affects the mind, they don't exist in front of Ji Juechen.
Whatever appeared in front of his eyes, he would chop it down.
The illusion of a sneak attack by a companion?
A sword slashed through it.
A spinning illusion?
Close your eyes and feel with Spiritual Power, the sword in your hand is still accurate.
As for stabbing yourself with your own sword?
That's even more of a joke. He has held the sword for more than ten years. Wouldn't he know which direction it moves?
Fighting is driven entirely by physical instinct!
Nightmare Douluo The more I beat him, the more frightened I became.
Although his Illusionary Realm cannot deal with strong men of the same level, it can be said to be a good hand at torturing vegetables!
Even a Soul Douluo level expert with a lower level of cultivation than him would have a nervous breakdown in less than half an hour if he was entangled by his Illusionary Realm.
But the sword cultivator in front of him was obviously only Soul Saint, but his willpower was as hard as a piece of fine steel that had been tempered for thousands of times.
The hallucinations that could drive an ordinary person insane hit him like waves hitting a rock, leaving nothing behind except some splashes.
What makes Sleep Demon Douluo even more troublesome is that Ji Juechen is not only defensive but not offensive.
While resisting illusions, he can also launch counterattacks.
Every time the Silver-White Long Sword was slashed, it contained the extremely condensed Sword Intent. Wherever the sword light passed, all the Spiritual Power and Illusionary Realm released around him were torn into pieces. Moreover, it could also wield fierce sword energy. Its attack power was extremely powerful, directly catching up with the Titled Douluo level attack power.
This also forced Sleep Demon Douluo to devote a lot of energy to dodge these sword energies, leaving him no room to deploy a larger range of the Illusionary Realm.
The two have fought for hundreds of rounds.
The Soul Power of Sleep Demon Douluo is constantly being consumed, while the Sword Intent of Ji Juechen is getting brighter and brighter.
After realizing this, Sleep Demon Douluo finally couldn't bear it any longer. He looked at the opponent in front of him and yelled, "You're not done with this guy! I don't have time to waste time with you here!"
He originally planned to attack Ye Guyi from behind from the flank.
As long as the little angel girl is allowed to fall into a deep sleep and Divine Domain is broken, the five worshipers will surely win by joining forces.
This plan has been deduced countless times in his mind, including the angle of the sneak attack, the timing of releasing the illusion, and the retreat route after the goal is achieved.
Who would have thought that such a Soul Saint sword cultivator would appear halfway, stalking him and not giving in, forcefully dragging him until now!
Sleep Demon Douluo suddenly pulled away, his black robes fluttering, and the demonic power around him surged, condensing into a huge gray-purple demonic face in front of him.
The demon face opened its mouth wide and let out an extremely harsh mental scream. The sound wave turned into a gray shock wave and crashed towards Ji Juechen.
This attack is his unique skill, specifically attacking the soul level. Even Titled Douluo would be dizzy for several breaths if he hit it.
But Ji Juechen only blocked with a horizontal sword. Sword blade was shaken by the shock wave and buzzed and trembled. His whole body was pushed back and slid more than a kilometer away. His feet made two deep grooves on the ground, and a wisp of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
Sleep Demon Douluo was overjoyed when he saw this, and was about to take advantage of the situation to pursue him, but found that Ji Juechen's sword light had already broken through the aftertaste of the shock wave and was heading straight for him.
The sword light was unpleasant, but it had a sharpness that made his scalp numb.
Sleep Demon Douluo turned sideways in a hurry, and the sword light grazed his cheek, leaving a deep wound on his cheek, with blood flowing down the wound.
He touched the blood on his face and looked at the blood on his fingertips, feeling shocked and angry.
This makes Sleep Demon Douluo determined to kill this guy here!
With such a strong willpower, if he died in his Illusionary Realm, how much improvement would Sleep Demon Douluo have?
I'm afraid this is of higher quality than some ordinary Soul Saint and Soul Douluo.
"Huh, I won't play around with you anymore! Get out of here!"
Sleep Demon Douluo couldn't help but cursed and launched another offensive.
But Ji Juechen didn't answer at all and stepped forward with his sword in hand again.
In his world, all that is left is the opponent in front of him, the long sword in his hand, and Sword Intent, which is constantly being tempered.
The mental scream of Sleep Demon Douluo really hurt his soul. The harsh buzzing still remains in his Sea of Consciousness. Every breath feels like countless needles pricking his Brain.
But he doesn't care.
Pain is a good thing. Pain means that he is still alive, still holding the sword, and can continue to cut.
The more sinister the opponent's methods, the brighter his sword.
The fiercer the opponent's attack, the firmer his will.
In his eyes, this life-and-death fight is nothing but a perfect whetstone.
Facing Ji Juechen in this state, Sleep Demon Douluo finally broke through.
He has seen countless opponents, some stronger than him and some weaker than him, but he has never seen such a completely unreasonable fighting method.
Those with the strongest willpower will waver for a moment in front of his Illusionary Realm, and that moment is enough for him to complete the attack or retreat.
As a result, this swordsman didn't give him any chance at all. Illusionary Realm was useless to him, so his true combat power was equivalent to 70% wasted.
The other 30% of direct attack methods are greatly reduced by the opponent's domain suppression.
So he launched a more violent offensive, and the gray-purple demonic mist surged out from all over his body. This time it was no longer a pure hallucination erosion, but merged Spiritual Power and Soul Power into countless gray needles as thin as ox hair, and shot toward Ji Juechen overwhelmingly.
Each needle carries enough power to break the spirit of Soul Emperor level Soul Master.
Ji Juechen did not retreat but advanced instead. He took a step forward. Sword Domain The ground under his feet was cracked inch by inch, and countless sword monuments simultaneously emitted harsh trembling sounds.
He held the sword with both hands, raised Silver-White Long Sword high above his head, and his whole body merged with Sword Intent, and then struck it down with a sword.
All the sword monuments in the field erupted with dazzling silver light at the same time. Thousands of sword lights shot out from each tombstone and converged on Ji Juechen's sword edge, turning into a huge silver sword light and hitting the overwhelming gray rain of needles head-on.
The sword light and needle rain collided fiercely in mid-air, gray and silver lights intertwined crazily, and harsh metal friction sounds continued to erupt in the air.
In the end, the sword light overcame the rain of needles, crushing all the gray fine needles, and slashed towards Sleep Demon Douluo with unabated force.
Sleep Demon Douluo was horrified and took several steps back. He formed seals with his hands frantically and laid seven Soul Power barriers in front of him.
The sword light shattered the first three rays, and finally dissipated before the fourth ray.
But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Ji Juechen's second sword had already struck him.
Then came the third sword, the fourth sword, and the fifth sword.
This posture doesn't look like fighting at all!
This is a fight to the death!
"Crazy! You crazy!!!"
Sleep Demon Douluo finally couldn't hold it any longer, and his withered face twisted into an almost ferocious expression, and he roared loudly.
His voice was clearly trembling on the edge of collapse.
Ice Empress, who was watching the battle from a distance, was floating in the air with his arms folded, but Orange-Gold had a bit of appreciation in his eyes.
She has seen countless strong human beings, but this is the first time she has seen such an extremely pure swordsman like Ji Juechen.
His talent may not be as incredible as Lu Ren, and his upper limit may not be as high as those Innate Full Soul Power geniuses, but his obsession with Swordsmanship has gone beyond the scope of talent.
If Ji Juechen's Innate Soul Power hadn't held him back, I'm afraid his future achievements would definitely be among the top Douluo Continent's.
"Sleep Demon Douluo's attack methods are hard to guard against. An ordinary Soul Douluo with a weak will would have been turned into an idiot long ago. Only a person like this who thinks about nothing but the sword can hold on for so long." Ice Empress rarely spoke to comment on a human being, with a hint of approval in his tone.
Ye Guyi clenched his fists, looking at Ji Juechen covered in blood, he couldn't help but say, "He bled a lot - and Sleep Demon Douluo's Soul Power is eroding his Meridians. How about I go over and help him purify it? At least help stabilize his injury."
She saw that the wound on Ji Juechen's left shoulder was still oozing blood, the spasm of her right leg was becoming more and more obvious, and the black corrosion marks on her chest were slowly spreading.
Every time the sword is swung, a new wound will appear on his body.
But he seemed to feel no pain at all, and the sword force became more and more fierce.
As a companion, Ye Guyi was a little afraid that Ji Juechen would roll his eyes and pout straight away in the next second.
"Don't go there."
Lu Ren raised his hand to stop Ye Guyi.
His eyes fell on the tall back, watching Ji Juechen swing his sword again to smash Sleep Demon Douluo's Illusionary Realm, and then used the force of the counterattack to adjust his body shape, and took advantage of the situation to strike out with a more powerful second sword.
"For someone like him, it would be more difficult for you to help him than to kill him."
"He has been waiting for this kind of opponent for who knows how long. Now he is getting excited. If you go over and interrupt him, he will remember it for a lifetime.
"Just watch, he will win for sure."
Lu Ren raised the corners of his mouth slightly when he said this.
He really thought so.
Sleep Demon Douluo has used all means, and the damage caused to Ji Juechen is becoming more and more limited.
But Ji Juechen's Sword Intent becomes stronger with every confrontation.
When Sleep Demon Douluo found that his attacks were completely ineffective, it was his moment of defeat.
At this time, Sleep Demon Douluo, who had been held back by Ji Juechen, finally noticed the fatal anomaly and froze in place.
Because he discovered something.
That means Second Worship's aura has completely disappeared, and Third Offering can no longer sense it.
Even Fourth Offering and Fifth Offering were silent.
Is it possible that five worshipers joined forces and all of them were defeated?
This thought was like a stream of ice water being poured from head to toe, and Sleep Demon Douluo felt a chill instantly rush up to the sky.
Sleep Demon Douluo took a deep breath, and with a sinking heart, he knew that the situation was over now.
Ever since, Sleep Demon Douluo now just wants to escape as soon as possible.
But the sword cultivator in front of him, covered in blood, was like a piece of dog-skin plaster that he couldn't shake off.
Facing another attack from Ji Juechen, Sleep Demon Douluo suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a ball of Life-Bound Demon Qi.
That was the original power that he had cultivated for decades. Every strand was extremely precious. It was the foundation for him to reach a higher realm, but at this moment, he spurted it out without hesitation.
The thick gray-purple fog instantly surged several times, covering the sky and the sun, and covering the sword's domain.
The mist is so thick that it is almost substantial. Not only can it block sight and Spiritual Power perception, it also contains extremely vicious corrosive power. When the sword light penetrates the mist, it will be weakened layer by layer.
And he himself took advantage of the cover of the thick fog, and in a flash, he directly planned to forcefully break through Ji Juechen's territory and escape.
If you can't fight, can't you run?
He Sleep Demon Douluo had finally cultivated to the stage of Titled Douluo. He had overcome many life and death difficulties and experienced many battles and tribulations. How could he die so easily in the hands of these juniors?
After Sleep Demon Douluo became the elder of Holy Spirit Cult, he had not yet had time to fully enjoy the taste of power, he had not yet had time to enjoy the cultivation resources in the sect, and the benefits Zhongli Wu promised him had not yet been fulfilled.
He can't die here.
However, the moment Sleep Demon Douluo chose to escape, Ji Juechen chased after him almost from the ground.
He completely ignored the demonic aura that covered the sky and the sun.
Since your vision is disturbed, just rely on your intuition.
His Sword Intent never needed these aids. There was no trace of fear in Ji Juechen's eyes, only the Sword Intent that was burning to the extreme. The Sword Intent condensed into two silver points of cold light in his pupils.
He didn't even try to defend himself against the incoming demonic energy, and allowed the vicious mist to fall on his back. The gray-purple corrosive force burned through his clothes the moment it touched his skin, burning the flesh on his back to a sizzling sound, and a burning smell filled the air.
But there was no expression of pain on Ji Juechen's face, and all his attention was focused on the next sword.
"Give me----stop!"
With a low cry, Ji Juechen took the last step. The ground beneath his feet was cracked, and his whole body shot towards Sleep Demon Douluo like an arrow from a string.
He poured all the Soul Power in his body into the long sword in his hand.
Soul Power in Dantian was completely drained, and Meridians whined overwhelmed because of the overload, but he didn't care.
The area belonging to him shrank crazily behind Ji Juechen. The overwhelming sword light and the rising Sword Intent were all pressed into this sword by him.
The essence of the entire field was condensed on the sword's edge, which was less than three feet. Sword blade could not withstand such terrifying energy density, and fine cracks appeared on the surface, emitting a harsh trembling sound.
The sword light was like thunder in the daytime, splitting apart the layers of magic mist.
The sword light was so bright that it made people unable to open their eyes. In the darkness shrouded by demonic energy, it was like a bolt of lightning tearing through the sky.
Sleep Demon Douluo frantically mobilized the demonic power to set up a defense behind him, but all the barriers were peeled off layer by layer in front of that sword. The sword edge penetrated his chest from the back with indomitable madness.
The tip of the sword came out of the chest, the silver Sword blade was covered with black blood, and there was a cold light under the Moonlight.
"Uh----"
Sleep Demon Douluo's body froze in mid-air.
His hands still maintained the posture of escaping forward, and his steps were still on the point of escape, but his whole body seemed to be nailed in the air.
Sleep Demon Douluo looked down at the sword tip protruding from his chest in disbelief, his withered eyes full of shock and unwillingness.
His defenses broken?
Is it that simple?
He was level 91 Titled Douluo, one of the top strong men in the mainland. How could he die in the hands of a sword cultivator with a mere Soul Saint cultivation?
Sleep Demon Douluo couldn't figure it out. He didn't even have time to let out an unwilling roar. He just stared blankly at the sword edge that came out of his body.
But he is Titled Douluo after all, and his vitality is extremely tenacious.
Sleep Demon Douluo was about to grit his teeth and urge Soul Power to self-destruct, using his last strength to pull this ignorant swordsman to death.
However, before he could detonate Evil Soul Power in Dantian, he felt a terrifying strangulation force coming from Sword blade.
After Ji Juechen's Sword Intent penetrated Sleep Demon Douluo's body, it did not stop there. The Sword Intent directly spread wildly inside his body.
Those Sword Intent filaments were like countless miniature swords, attacking simultaneously inside his body. Every Meridians was being cut, and every strand of Soul Power was being strangled.
The preconditions for self-destruction have been completely destroyed, and even Soul Power has been minced, so why should it be used to self-destruct?
Ji Juechen drew his sword, and when the long sword was pulled out from Sleep Demon Douluo's back, it made a clear sword sound.
Blood dripped down the blade of the sword, and black-red blood beads hit the ice at his feet, leaving a small dazzling mark.
Sleep Demon Douluo's body lost its support and fell from mid-air, hitting the ground and raising a cloud of dust.
Ji Juechen staggered two steps instead, leaned on the ground with his long sword to barely stand still, and coughed up a large mouthful of blood.
The blood in the mouth was black, it was the injuries accumulated in the body after being eroded by Sleep Demon Douluo and Soul Power.
His lips were white from blood loss, his face was stained with his own blood and the blood of his enemies, and his robe had been torn into rags by Sword Intent, but there was an extremely cheerful smile on his lips.
Especially after Ji Juechen saw the completely lifeless body on the ground, he couldn't help but say, "We win."
Then he raised his head, facing the cold moon in the night sky, and his voice suddenly rose. "I win!!!"
The last time, when facing Masked Douluo, I could only fight him in a 37-30 draw.
Ji Juechen three, Masked Douluo seven.
He tried his best in that battle, but could only barely contain the opponent. In the end, Lu Ren came to close the fight and the battle was resolved.
And now, Ji Juechen has become stronger after the battle with Masked Douluo.
His Sword Intent has been refined in life-and-death battles, his domain has become more stable through repeated polishing, and his combat experience has been continuously accumulated in every leapfrog challenge.
Originally, this time against Sleep Demon Douluo, the objective comparison of strength between the two sides was only 40 or 60.
Ji Juechen four, Sleep Demon Douluo six.
But after Sleep Demon Douluo discovered that all four worshipers had died, his mind completely collapsed and he actually had the intention to retreat and just wanted to escape.
In this bloody battle, once one party wants to retreat, the outcome needless to say.
Fighting is a two-way street. When one party starts to think about escape routes instead of attack angles, his attacks will become hesitant, his defense will have loopholes, and his reaction speed will also decrease.
Ji Juechen successfully seized this opportunity.
The moment Sleep Demon Douluo turned around and ran away, his back was completely exposed to Ji Juechen's sword. All defenses were hastily deployed behind him, and all his attention was focused on escaping.
Ji Juechen fought hard with his seriously injured body, gathered all Sword Intent into that sword, and powerfully killed the opponent.
This is a huge success for Ji Juechen.
I couldn't beat it last time, but I beat it this time.
Although there are other factors mixed in, if he and Sleep Demon Douluo were to fight one-on-one in a closed space to the end, and the other party did not run away, was not timid, and did not lose his mentality, he would definitely lose.
But combat is very realistic, and it has nothing to do with the strength of your cultivation. It also includes the impact of combat awareness and mentality on the outcome of the combat.
Obviously, Sleep Demon Douluo lost to Ji Juechen mentally, which was also the reason for his defeat.
In a life-and-death fight, strength is always just one of the many factors that determine victory or defeat.
