244. Act of Desperation
Lin Fei's voice, though not loud, resonated through the void. Everyone heard it and felt their hearts tighten.
It's either your end or mine
Clearly, with these words, Lin Fei had clarified his stance. The impending slash was a true act of desperation, and when a Limit Martial Saint, especially not a re ordinary one, resorts to such asures, what terrifying powers would be unleashed?
Many present realized the gravity of the situation. Whether Lin Fei or Jiang Tianyun perished, significant turmoil was bound to ensue. They represented the Ancient Origin Sect and Illusion Worry City respectively, the death of either would be earth-shattering.
All eyes were now focused on Jiang Tianyun. Jiang Tianyun stared intently at Lin Fei, understanding that this was no jest. Accepting the challenge ant it was truly a matter of life and death. But why would Jiang Tianyun be afraid? On the contrary, he felt invigorated. Only through such a dire battle might his sword techniques achieve transcendence, perhaps even perfection. Martial artists sought to elevate themselves through combat.
"Why not?" Jiang Tianyun replied, his voice echoing through the void.
Lin Fei responded not with words, but with action. With a powerful thrust, he channeled all his energy, and the Qi Flower above him seed to cover the entire sky. One after another, streaks of saber essence materialized, forming massive sabers in the void: Fla Burning Heaven Saber! Rainbow Transformation Saber! Holy Spirit Saber!
At this mont, the three saber techniques all rged, creating a massive saber suspended in the void.
"rge!"
With Lin Fei's command, the three sabers fused into one, their combined might amplify from several hundred ters to over several thousand. The vast saber, hanging in the void, resembled a divine entity, radiating a destructive aura as if its release would obliterate everything in its path. Especially bolstered by Lin Fei's Transcendence Saber Montum, it was even more terrifying. Just the re glint of its edge was enough to slice through the void, causing black cracks to form.
The atmosphere beca thick with tension, as all awaited the next mont. The mont was fleeting, yet it was enough for all to gauge the power behind Lin Fei's saber. Seeing this, everyone's heart raced, and their breathing beca labored, as though being strangled. Just a glance at that towering saber was enough to leave them gasping for breath.
Jiang Tianyun, who was directly targeted by Lin Fei's saber essence, bore the full brunt of this pressure. However, Jiang Tianyun too was summoning a secret technique. His physical body and True Essence were converging continuously. Holding his sword, a massive sword shadow also appeared in the void, radiating a terrifying sword light. Its aura kept rising.
"Sword Dragon Dance!"
With a swish, Jiang Tianyun made the first move. He couldn't afford to let Lin Fei's saber reach its peak power. Even the re aura from Lin Fei's saber was already threatening to Jiang Tianyun. Without hesitation, Jiang Tianyun thrust forward. Not a slash, but a stab! A powerful, earth-shattering stab! The fierce sword light tore through the sky, locking onto Lin Fei.
This strike seed to have depleted almost all of Jiang Tianyun's True Essence. It was undoubtedly his most powerful strike, as swift as a shooting star and arriving in an instant.
"Slash!"
Lin Fei's voice was cold. Though he had been outpaced, he was unfazed. Even in his gaze, there was no trace of that teor-like sword light. His eyes saw only Jiang Tianyun and his saber!
With a boom, he brought his saber down. This was the culmination of three saber techniques, all of the Martial Saint level. Moreover, it was further bolstered by the Transcendence Saber Montum. With the full explosive release of his Saber Essence, even the Qi Flower dimd.
This was undoubtedly Lin Fei's most potent slash. And with this slash, there was no turning back. The two mightiest attacks, a sword, and a saber clashed with a deafening sound that threatened to tear the world asunder. All eyes were fixed on the point of impact, awaiting the outco of this legendary duel.
When Lin Fei released his saber, Jiang Tianyun's sword light of several thousand ters was already before Lin Fei. However, under Lin Fei's slash, the sword light shattered like fragile glass obliterated instantaneously.
Jiang Tianyun's eyes widened in disbelief. This was his pinnacle sword move, a combination of all his strengths: Energy Flower, Qi Flower, and his sword montum. Yet, how could it be so easily shattered by Lin Fei's saber? It didn't even look like an equal match, but rather as if their strengths were on completely different levels.
Various emotions surged through Jiang Tianyun: regret, fear, and disbelief. The shadow of impending death lood over him. He realized he couldn't withstand or escape Lin Fei's saber. This was the face of real death.
Previously, Jiang Tianyun believed that in the face of death, he could achieve a profound understanding of his sword montum, even reaching Transcendence. But now, he knew he was gravely mistaken. While facing death might offer great opportunities, it also brought imnse terror.
For the first ti, Jiang Tianyun realized his will wasn't as unyielding as he imagined. He didn't want to die. Despite his efforts to amplify the power of his Qi Flower and Energy Flower to their limits, they proved futile against Lin Fei's divine saber, which seed as though it could destroy worlds. Everything in its path was destined to be obliterated.
Finally, the saber fell, aiming directly at Jiang Tianyun. The terrifying saber essence engulfed him. The onlookers felt a pit in their stomachs, thinking Jiang Tianyun was dood.
However, when the dust settled, Lin Fei saw a sight that left him stunned: Jiang Tianyun was unscathed! Before him stood a graceful, middle-aged man in white robes.
"Excellent saber technique!" The man remarked, a faint smile on his face as he looked at Lin Fei.
Lin Fei's pupils constricted. Jiang Tianyun was unhard, not because of his own strength but because of this mysterious middle-aged man. This stranger had effortlessly taken Lin Fei's most potent slash.
