"Bite!"
After their initial clash, the battle between the two intensified. During their exchanges, Xie Shan became more cautious, no longer daring to easily parry Xiao Yan's heavy ruler. However, relying on his terrifying cultivation at the Peak Origin Emperor, coupled with speed comparable to Yuan Zong expert, Xiao Yan was unable to do anything to him for a time. Instead, Xie Shan's flying scythe became somewhat disheveled.
Although Xiao Yan was able to easily block the flying scythe with the Heavy Xuan Ruler, the chains on it were like living things. When the two collided, they simply wrapped around it. The flying scythe even bypassed the Heavy Xuan Ruler's defense and went straight for Xiao Yan's neck. If it weren't for his speed and super strong defense, Xiao Yan probably wouldn't have been able to avoid such a fierce attack.
Dodging the flying scythe, Xiao Yan didn't dare to pause for a moment. He forcefully pulled the Heavy Xuan Ruler back from the chains, creating sparks and a sharp scraping sound. Then, he charged forward, wielding the heavy ruler, and swung it fiercely at Xie Shan.
With his flying scythe, Xie Shan had a significant advantage in long-range combat; if one couldn't get close, one still couldn't defeat him.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Yan appeared above Xie Shan, gripping the giant ruler tightly in both hands. With a fierce shout, he slashed down at Xie Shan's head with the force of splitting a mountain!
This strike was devoid of any fancy moves; all that remained was its surging, terrifying power. As the ruler-shaped blade fell, an immense pressure followed, turning the invisible void into a vacuum in its wake, and the whistling wind sent a chill down one's spine.
"Again?"
Gazing at the rapidly enlarging heavy ruler in his eyes, Xie Shan smiled coldly. Having understood Xiao Yan's power, he was naturally fearless in the face of him now. With a flick of his left hand, he twirled the short sword, and as the chain spun, he retrieved the flying scythe. At the same time, he clenched his right fist tightly, and powerful Origin Qi covered the surface of his fist, condensing into keratin. Then, he threw a powerful punch, meeting the giant ruler above his head head-on.
With a single punch, the space in front of him rippled violently, and invisible energy ripples quickly spread outwards. In the instant a sharp sonic boom resounded, Xie Shan's fist collided fiercely with Xiao Yan's heavy ruler.
"Bang!"
The two collided, and a fierce force erupted instantly. The space around them shattered instantly. Under the powerful energy contained in the giant ruler, Xie Shan's figure first sank slightly. Then, the moment he uttered a low shout, his arm suddenly trembled, and an even more terrifying force burst forth from the collision. The giant ruler was instantly sent flying, breaking free from Xiao Yan's control.
Almost simultaneously, Xie Shan swung his left hand violently, and the cracking sound of chains rang out. He picked up the black flying scythe and reappeared in front of Xiao Yan. The flying scythe gleamed coldly and quickly tore through the void, aiming straight for Xiao Yan's throat.
"Laugh..."
However, what made Xie Shan's expression change was that the flying scythe actually passed through Xiao Yan's body once again, leaving only an afterimage!
The moment the Heavy Xuan Ruler left Xiao Yan's hand, its figure had already vanished from the spot!
Although Xie Shan regained his senses, it was too late. The moment he turned around, Xiao Yan was standing right behind him, his hands forming a hand seal. A huge fiery finger had already condensed above his head, and before he could make a move, it slammed down hard.
" The Wasteland-Spanning Finger!"
A deep shout came from Xiao Yan's mouth, and the energy contained in the fiery fingers falling from above his head became even more powerful at this moment. His majestic aura rose with the wind, and the terrifying energy contained within made Xie Shan frown.
As a Peak Origin Emperor, Xiao Yan's attack, though fast, was still formidable. With a heavy stomp of his foot, the vast and surging Origin Qi within him surged outwards and quickly condensed behind him into a tangible energy shield, forcefully blocking Xiao Yan's Wasteland-Spanning Finger.
Although he withstood Xiao Yan's Wasteland-Spanning Finger, Xie Shan's expression didn't seem to change much. Instead, the killing intent in his eyes gradually intensified. As he faced Xiao Yan, the arm holding the short sword began to vibrate rapidly. With the frenzied infusion of Origin Qi into his body, the short sword in his hand seemed to split into countless fragments. The afterimages were both real and illusory, mixed with a cold, chilling light. With a tremor of the bone chain, countless sword shadows burst out and enveloped every part of Xiao Yan's body. The attack was fierce and ruthless.
Faced with such an offensive, Xiao Yan remained calm and composed. Without shifting his stance, he instantly unleashed the Heavenly Severing Steps, his body swaying strangely in the air, dodging the countless sword shadows. Even those that occasionally touched him were easily blocked by the powerful defense of the Golden Elephant Art. He even summoned back the Heavy Xuan Ruler, its broad blade wielded nimbly in Xiao Yan hand, deflecting some of the sword beams. The flames erupting from the heavy ruler illuminated his face, revealing his complete composure.
Until a certain moment, when Xiao Yan's figure suddenly flashed to a place in the void where sword shadows were chaotic, his eyes suddenly shone brightly, and a low shout came from his throat. Then, the Heavy Xuan Ruler in his hand was mixed with raging purple flames and slashed out. Then, in the midst of the sky full of sword shadows, it hit a sword shadow that seemed real and illusory.
"Bite!"
The moment the crisp sound of collision echoed through the void, the surrounding sword shadows abruptly vanished, leaving only a short sword connected by a bone chain that suddenly appeared in the void. This same pitch-black short sword clashed fiercely with the heavy blade of the Heavy Xuan Ruler!
"Drink!"
Feeling the powerful force emanating from the short sword, Xiao Yan suddenly let out a low shout and unhesitatingly poured the Origin Qi in his body into the giant ruler. As the flames on it surged, an explosive force also burst out from the Heavy Xuan Ruler and finally rushed into the short sword.
"Bang!"
A dull thud suddenly rang out, and the short sword and the bone chain were instantly knocked away. But almost instantly, Xiao Yan's spirit was jolted, and a chilling killing intent that made him feel a chill was now surrounding him.
" The Great Dao of the Undead!"
