The Dragon Creek Sword Instruction displayed its might; diligence made up for shortcomings to defeat the foe

The sound of metal clashing against metal rang out continuously.

Gao Yi was initially a little nervous, but as he continued to spar with his opponents, his swordsmanship became more and more proficient, and his moves became smoother and smoother, as if he had returned to the days when he was practicing swordsmanship alone on Jade Screen Peak.

He realized early on that his talent was not on the same level as his three senior brothers and sisters.

Therefore, this disciple of the Gao Clan in Jade Wave Immortal Market, after becoming a disciple of True Person Xuhong of Jade Spring Dao Child, chose a different path—to make up for his shortcomings through diligence.

He would practice a sword move that his three senior brothers and sisters could learn by watching it once, but he would practice it hundreds or thousands of times until the sword move became part of his flesh and blood and became his instinct.

He may not have amazing talent, and his comprehension is just average, but he has a calm and composed mind.

This is precisely the quality that Chen Shuangbai and Mystic Sea Avatar most.

He was hardworking and had the support of his father, the young master of Jade Wave Immortal Market.

Every month, the merchant caravans that come to the Jade Wave Immortal Market from the Azure Wave Jade Spring Sect Market will send a sum of spiritual funds to Jade Screen Peak. Most of these funds are deposited in the peak's treasury for Gao Yi's cultivation.

Under such circumstances, as long as he is not completely without talent, he will make great progress.

On the sword-fighting stage, Gao Yi's swordplay became increasingly fluid and graceful.

The Law Sword in his hand seemed to be one with him. As the sword light flowed, it carried a cool and long aura, like a clear mountain stream. It seemed gentle, but it was endless. No matter what obstacles it encountered, it could find a gap to flow through and eventually flow into rivers, lakes and seas.

This was precisely the Swordsmanship he practiced, the [ Dragon Creek Sword Instruction ].

This was not created by Chen Shuangbai, but left by a senior member of the Jade Spring Sect Jade Spring in the Book Collection Cave. The meaning is like a dragon diving into the abyss and a stream flowing, which has both the gentleness and endurance of water and the hidden sharpness of a dragon.

Xue Zheng's sword strikes were like a raging torrent, fierce and violent, attempting to break through Gao Yi's defenses with overwhelming force.

The sword style of the Arrayed Mystery Sect is extremely murderous, and its sword techniques are extremely fierce. Once an opponent falls into its sword techniques, they cannot break free and can only passively take hits.

Therefore, in the first half of the fight, Xue Zheng almost completely suppressed Gao Yi, while Gao Yi could only keep parrying and countering. Several times, he almost had his Law Sword knocked away, allowing his opponent to strike directly at his heart!

However, after several dozen moves, the situations of both sides gradually began to change.

Xue Zheng became increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed!

He had thought that even if he suppressed his cultivation and fell to the Middle Qi Refining Stage, he could still completely crush this country bumpkin from who-knows-where with his cultivation time and swordsmanship.

But at this moment... he found that his sword momentum seemed to be stuck in a quagmire. Every attack was pulled by that long sword momentum, causing the power of his sword style to be constantly neutralized under the pull, and instead being tightly entangled by him, leaving him in a dilemma.

In contrast, Gao Yi--

He was already showing signs of fully unleashing the power of his sword.

The Law Sword in his hand transformed into streaks of silver-white light, like a winding stream, shuttling back and forth on the sword-fighting platform.

The sword light was sometimes as gentle as a trickle of water, and sometimes as turbulent as a rushing river, changing unpredictably and making it difficult to grasp.

A surge of anger rose in Xue Zheng's heart, but beneath this anger lay fear and trepidation.

"No!"

"If we really lose, we're going to be in big trouble when we get back!"

Taking advantage of a brief moment, Xue Zheng released his Law Power, creating distance between himself and Gao Yi. With a gentle flick of his Law Sword, he executed a beautiful sword flourish, and the shimmering purple Law Sword split into two, then into four... In the blink of an eye, it transformed into six sword shadows.

" Sword Light Differentiation?"

Du Taixuan frowned slightly, thinking to himself that it really must be a cultivator from within the seas.

Those sword cultivators on the sea, if they want to comprehend the Sword Light Differentiation, they at least need to reach the Foundation Establishment... How could they even dare to dream of it when Qi Refining?

Liu Qinghe, Nangu Yaohua... and even Chen Shuangbai were not surprised.

now.

Six shimmering purple sword shadows surrounded Xue Zheng. Within these sword shadows, a glimmer of white light flickered, like the eye of a ferocious beast, pulsating and radiating a dangerous aura.

Looking at Gao Yi, who was gradually reaching Gao Yi, he slowly exhaled and praised, "You are indeed excellent. Your swordplay flows continuously, and you have truly grasped its essence."

"But that's all there is to it."

Six purple sword shadows flew out simultaneously, shooting towards Gao Yi from different directions, trailing long tails of light. For a moment, they resembled six purple tigers, crisscrossing and blocking all of Gao Yi's escape routes in all directions.

Each sword shadow contained a fierce power, as if it wanted to completely annihilate Gao Yi.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Shiyong frowned slightly, already preparing to make a move.

Upon seeing this, the cultivators below the stage couldn't help but gasp in surprise. The power of this move far exceeded what Qi Refining Stage cultivator should possess.

Even a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage would likely have to temporarily avoid the sharp edge of this sword.

Gao Yi's pupils contracted slightly, as he was also surprised that the person in front of him had such strength. However, it seemed to be within his expectations, and the astonishment quickly faded, and his still somewhat immature face returned to calm.

He started to move.

Once again, it merged with the sword light in its hand, transforming into a winding, flowing stream that meandered between steep mountain walls, circling around walls and passing through rocks, until a smooth road lay ahead.

All the cultivators below could see was that amidst the six purple sword shadows that transformed into a ferocious tiger, a winding sword light smoothly passed through and finally landed in front of Xue Zheng.

Xue Zheng's pupils contracted sharply as he clearly saw Gao Yi's current state.

Gao Yi at this moment--

His body turned slightly to the right, his right hand holding the radiant Law Sword, its silvery-white light flowing endlessly, as if a real stream were flowing in his hand.

His eyes were clear and bright, filled with unwavering determination and ease, and then he raised his sword—and slashed!

After his initial shock, Xue Zheng frowned, revealing a fierce expression. He turned his sword, completely suppressing his murderous intent, and unleashed a burst of purple light, within which a faint white light appeared. He then swung his sword to meet the attack.

Accompanied by sparks flying and bursts of inspiration.

The Flowing Radiance Sword in Gao Yi's hand clashed squarely with Xue Zheng's purple Law Sword.

Xue Zheng raised his sword and swung it again, the Law Sword in his hand emitting purple light and revealing the image of a fierce tiger, as if it wanted to tear everything in front of it apart.

" Passing Shadow, Flowing River."

Gao Yi uttered these four words.

Holding the Law Sword, he took a step forward, and streaks of white light emerged from his body, like splashes of water in a stream, dazzling and azure, stirring up a mist that rushed towards Xue Zheng.

Xue Zheng felt as if he had fallen into water. His face, body, and even his sword were all cool and refreshing. His vision was filled with shimmering waves. The weight of the Law Sword in his hand suddenly increased, as if it were entangled by something, and his sword momentum immediately faltered.

Then I came to my senses.

Gao Yi's figure slid through the gaps in Xue Zheng's sword strikes like a fish, appearing beside him.

With a gentle turn of his Law Sword, the tip pressed against Xue Zheng's neck, a chill seeping into his body and sending shivers down his spine.

You lost.

Gao Yi said calmly.
