At this moment, Jian Lan appeared completely calm, and one could not even sense any sharp sword energy, as if she were just an ordinary person without any abilities.
If one didn't know Jian Lan's background, no one would believe that this seemingly frail woman was the successor to the Sword God's Godhood, or even the pinnacle of swordsmanship.
" Jian Lan, don't be careless. Xue Qinghe is quite strong, and some of his abilities are very difficult to deal with," Qi Ling said. "Be careful to stay safe."
"Okay, I'll be careful," Jian Lan said with a smile, then gracefully flew on her sword to the center of the canyon.
Xue Qinghe had never directly fought Jian Lan, but he had heard Cao Yang mention her as a formidable opponent who should not be underestimated.
Upon seeing Jian Lan, Xue Qinghe immediately understood how troublesome she was. He wouldn't simply assume that the lack of any aura meant she had no strength; on the contrary, it was probably precisely because of this that Jian Lan was even more formidable.
The more he confronted Jian Lan, the stronger this feeling became. Even though Xue Qinghe had raised his aura to the extreme, he was certain that even Qi Ling would not be completely unresponsive at this moment.
However, what terrified Xue Qinghe was that Jian Lan did not react at all under his heavy pressure! No, not only that, but he could not sense Jian Lan's presence at all.
This feeling is like the Jian Lan is clearly there, yet not there. With your eyes, the Jian Lan is definitely there, but with your senses, there is nothing there.
Humans are instinctively afraid of the unknown, so how can Jian Lan Jian Lan they cannot even sense its presence?
"What's going on? What did you do?!" Xue Qinghe was exhausted by this strange feeling and couldn't help but say, "Why are you there, yet not there! What did you do?!"
On the viewing platform, everyone was completely baffled by Xue Qinghe's words. Xiao Wu couldn't help but ask Qi Ling, " Brother Qi, what did Xue Qinghe mean by that? What does it mean that Jian Lan is there, yet not there?"
Qi Ling looked at Jian Lan's current state, but instead of answering Xiao Wu's question, she laughed and said, "Amazing, amazing! How did you do that? Sister, A Xue, do you know?"
Bibi Dong looked at Jian Lan and said, "I don't know, but I can't do something like that."
Qian Renxue also said, "Me too, this special ability is different from ordinary powerful abilities, it's very unique!"
"That's it, Xiao Wu," Qi Ling said. "What Jian Lan is demonstrating is an ability that even we can't achieve! Sheathing her sword without revealing a trace of killing intent—that in itself speaks volumes about Jian Lan's strength!"
As Qi Ling said, the most important thing for Jian Lan, as Sword God, is not to cultivate strength, but to cultivate her mind! Only by making her heart purer can her sword become sharper.
Unable to tolerate the situation any longer, Xue Qinghe finally launched an attack, because he suspected that if he continued to confront Jian Lan like this, he would probably have to admit defeat before even fighting.
The Evil Dragon, which was on all fours, roared and then quickly crawled towards Jian Lan on the ground, raising a cloud of dust to cover its movements. Then, it unexpectedly revealed itself and bit at Jian Lan.
But after he opened his mouth, Xue Qinghe was immediately stunned. Where was Jian Lan? He clearly saw her here just a moment ago, so how could she have disappeared after he opened his mouth?
Frustrated, Xue Qinghe immediately looked to both sides but couldn't find Jian Lan. Just as he was wondering, Qian Xunji was watching the battle, suddenly couldn't help but shout, "Idiot! She's on your head!"
Xue Qinghe was startled and rolled his eyes upwards. Sure enough, he saw Jian Lan standing on his dragon head. But what shocked him even more was that even though Jian Lan was right above him, he still didn't feel anything!
If he hadn't known the other party's background, Xue Qinghe would have thought he was seeing a ghost! At that moment, he reacted immediately, swinging his dragon tail and slamming it down hard on the Jian Lan above his head!
"Ouch! My head!" Xue Qinghe cried out in a disheveled manner, not because he had been attacked by Jian Lan, but because he had almost been knocked unconscious by his own tail, and couldn't help but shout out.
As for Jian Lan, she landed gracefully in front of Xue Qinghe once again, without even getting her clothes dirty, appearing calm and composed.
Xue Qinghe looked at Jian Lan in a disheveled state, not daring to stop his attack. So he continued to chase after Jian Lan with his claws, but no matter how fast his attacks were, he couldn't even touch the hem of Jian Lan's clothes.
What devastated Xue Qinghe even more was that, although the battle had already begun, Jian Lan had not drawn her sword. Her Immortal Slayer, remained sheathed, its edge never revealed.
This is undoubtedly a huge insult to Xue Qinghe. Do you mean to say that you don't even need a weapon to deal with me? As Sword God, not drawing your sword is an insult to people.
Even Xue Qinghe had dignity, so Xue Qinghe raised his dragon head and roared to the sky. As his dragon roar accompanied him, black clouds gradually gathered in the sky, and lightning flashed continuously within the clouds.
The ability to alter the weather like clouds follow dragons and winds follow tigers is not unusual for the Dragon Clan, and Qi Ling can do it easily as well.
Even so, this lightning, carrying the might of heaven and earth, should not be underestimated. Moreover, the lightning in the clouds was an eerie black, flashing intermittently within the clouds, like a giant python moving in the air—strange and terrifying.
"Heh, even if you can dodge my attack, so what? Can you dodge lightning?" Xue Qinghe laughed loudly. "Let's see if you can still be so calm and collected! Strike her with Devil Lightning!"
As Xue Qinghe spoke, the clouds in the sky churned, and then a black lightning bolt struck down from the sky, heading straight for Jian Lan.
However, Xue Qinghe's smug expression quickly turned into surprise, because just as the black lightning struck, Jian Lan actually dodged it at the last second!
Without any spatial abilities or Teleportation, and even with movements that didn't seem particularly fast, Jian Lan managed to dodge the astonishing lightning, leaving Xue Qinghe's eyes wide with surprise.
