Even if he were at the Revolving Illumination Realm, even if he were facing a young man like Gu Chen, he would treat him the same way!
Therefore, after demonstrating the first five moves of the Nirvana Sword Technique, he was betting that Gu Chen, with his arrogance, would definitely copy them! After all, every martial arts genius likes to master all the exquisite sword techniques, or even create them themselves!
Chen Yushan has lived for so long and has seen quite a few geniuses! But geniuses all share the same fatal weakness: excessive arrogance!
But this arrogance is a weakness, the biggest opening, in the eyes of a cunning and shrewd person like him!
He had calculated that!
He used the Nirvana Sword Technique precisely so that Gu Chen could imitate it!
It's important to know that the Nirvana Sword Technique didn't actually Chen Family. Instead, it was obtained by a former patriarch of the Chen Family from the ruins of a destroyed one-star family! The most exquisite part of this sword technique is the last three moves. The first five moves serve as a prelude, with Chen Yushan concealing his killing intent. When he finally unleashes it, it's like a torrential downpour that has accumulated on the banks for three days before finally cascading down for miles!
He naturally didn't believe that Gu Chen could learn the final three moves!
There's no way to imitate it!
Chen Yushan, though seemingly rough, was actually quite shrewd in his schemes against a junior, and he didn't feel ashamed at all! At that moment, his sword strikes were unleashed, and as he shouted, "You're still too green," all his energy and True Qi gathered into those three sword strikes. His face contorted with rage, as if he could already see Gu Chen lying in a pool of blood, barely alive...
However, despite making so many plans, he miscalculated!
Gu Chen is Divine Emperor!
Putting aside his cultivation level, his knowledge far surpasses that of everyone present!
In his memory, what hadn't he seen? No matter how exquisite the sword techniques of a one-star martial arts family, they were all like clay chickens and earthenware dogs!
However, Gu Chen did not intend to use cultivation techniques; this was his trump card, intended to be used to finally defeat Gu Changfeng and the Gu Family!
He now intends to use worldly martial arts, and with martial arts, he can defeat everyone!
Faced with the overwhelming force that seemed to collapse like a mountain, Gu Chen remained indifferent. His calmness was like a bottomless abyss, utterly undisturbed, or like the snow on an iceberg, chillingly still. His movements, mirroring his expression, were completely unfathomable, making it impossible for anyone to guess his thoughts or what his next move would be!
At this moment, Gu Chen realized that he had been manipulated by Chen Yushan and had indeed been tricked! Chen Yushan had guided him to make the move of the Nirvana Sword Technique in order to attack him! During this period, Chen Yushan's momentum grew stronger with each move of the Nirvana Sword Technique, as if each sword move was a layer of accumulated power, and the power that burst forth was incredibly astonishing!
Therefore, after five moves, Chen Yushan's momentum did not diminish, but instead became even stronger.
However, he hadn't expected that Gu Chen was no different.
With his sword drawn and his mind focused, Gu Chen remained silent, his eyes showing no sign of retreat or fear. He was like a towering mountain rising from the ground, blocking the mountain that was about to collapse in front of him!
Gu Chen's facial expression was firm and resolute, his eyes seemingly endless. Only when the sword flashed in the void did the light in his eyes begin to have color, but it was like the starry sky, unreachable.
"Making a big fuss!"
When Chen Yushan saw Gu Chen raise his sword, his tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed, and his brow bone twitched imperceptibly.
At that moment, Gu Chen's body went limp, his foot slipped, and the long sword in his hand rose into the air!
In the blink of an eye, Gu Chen's sword aura had rapidly filled up. With a "clang," the sword shot out of the void, the long sword tearing through the sky like a full moon, dispelling the darkness while radiating light, its trajectory eerie!
Moreover, this sword technique, with its momentum growing stronger with each step, is more exquisite with each move, like a giant wave rolling and crashing. When the final wave is built up, it is overwhelming, comparable to the king of combination sword techniques!
"No, impossible! How could you know the last three moves!"
"No, this is somewhat different, yet the form and momentum are imitated so similarly?"
"Could this kid have deduced all of this from the first five moves?"
Chen Yushan, who had initially thought Gu Chen was just bluffing, froze on his face when he saw Gu Chen's longsword swinging towards him, accompanied by a sense of oppressive power like a beast being unleashed. The smile on his lips could no longer spread!
But there wasn't much time for him to be shocked, because at this moment neither Gu Chen nor the sword could be withdrawn, and they could only rely on the momentum from before to crash into it fiercely!
It was the exact same sword move again, the only difference being the shimmering light swirling around the swords—one red, one purple. In the not-so-warm glow of the setting sun, their figures seemed to blend into it...
"Bang!"
The sixth sword strikes collided. Chen Yushan's body trembled, but Gu Chen remained completely still!
"Bang!"
The next second, their seventh moves collided!
At that moment, Gu Chen's longsword advanced an inch, almost striking Chen Yushan's forehead, but in the end, Chen Yushan gritted his teeth, spat out a mouthful of blood, and swayed.
"Bang!"
--
When the last sword blades collided, the solidified aura around them was completely shattered, and everyone around seemed to be able to hear the shattering sensation coming from the void.
Boom!
The enormous sound and energy explosion caused the ground to sink considerably. The surrounding tables and chairs could no longer withstand the impact of the shockwaves and energy from the two people. Amidst the rising dust and billowing waves of earth, the noise was deafening.
Both of their figures were completely submerged in it.
The wind raged fiercely, and in the center of the yard, besides smoke and dust, there were also a lot of sawdust and lime, which bothered people's eyes.
The impact was layered upon layer; one can imagine how violent the collision must have been!
In the Shangjing, it was no secret that the Chen Family possessed advanced martial arts skills. They had even seen members of the Chen Family use the Nirvana Sword Technique. But no one had ever imagined that Gu Chen and Chen Yushan could unleash such power in their techniques, whether it was the first five moves or the last three.
What's even more shocking is that Gu Chen isn't a member of the Chen Family at all; he's just an imitator. Yet, this sword technique is incredibly agile in Gu Chen's hands, without the slightest hint of sluggishness. On the contrary, it's even faster than Chen Yushan's sword moves, which he claimed to have practiced for over a decade!
However, the scene at this moment made it impossible to think too much about the reason. Almost everyone held their breath and stared nervously at the courtyard.
Amidst the chaos, the smoke and dust gradually dissipated.
Who won?
Suddenly, a figure darted out from the ruins—it was Chen Yushan!
