Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high! Chapter 995 - 690: Guidance2

Though just a short sentence, it was filled with extraordinarily complex emotions and a resolute will: "Defeat . What I taught you."

"So it really is you." A slight smile blossod on Bai E's face.

"Stay focused." Yue Ying's tone remained cold.

Her attacks didn't pause for even a mont!

The aftermath of the collision had barely settled when that slender figure, like a ghost, closed in. In her hand appeared a long battle sword seemingly forged from starlight and ice. Her swordsmanship was sharp and fierce, each strike aid directly at the "Star Emperor" cha's power joints, spiritual energy transfer nodes, and even the weaknesses in Bai E's perceptions.

It wasn't blind hacking, but rather precise strikes imbued with a high understanding of the Sword Dao, aiming at the cha's structure and Bai E's combat habits!

Even more startling to Bai E was that within Yue Ying's sword moves, he could vaguely see the shadow of the Elven martial arts he had once learned.

But now they were wilder, more direct, imbued with a resolve to destroy everything.

As if suppressing sothing, yet simultaneously releasing sothing.

"She's guiding ..."

Bai E instantly grasped the aning of Yue Ying's words "Defeat ."

This wasn't a life-and-death struggle between enemies, but more like a... special instruction in the direst of circumstances? A trial forcing him to surpass his limits?

This master from the Elf Race had always been a master; even as he advanced step by step, she never once halted.

Even after he achieved extraordinary growth, her level remained the combat peak he could reach...

Whether when he first traversed, or even now.

Yue Ying's sword, like the sternest ntor, forced him into a desperate situation.

Every attack of hers pressured Bai E to bring everything he had learned—

The Elven combat skills, battle footwork, and spiritual energy utilization learned from her, along with the instant strike technique he later comprehended and everything else into full play, to respond, to counter, to... transcend!

"Is she using this thod to make truly integrate and embark on my own 'Dao path'?" Bai E understood in his heart.

The Elves revered the "Dao," pursuing the ultimate in skill.

The attacks that seed brutal were actually guiding him in the most extre way to integrate all power and insight, breaking out skills that surpassed the current level!

He couldn't betray her expectations! Nor waste this "teaching" opportunity gained at the risk of life!

Bai E's gaze sharpened, dismissing all extraneous thoughts.

Whether the burden of responsibility he carried or the excitent of reuniting with a friend... only battle remained.

Facing Yue Ying's sword force that was as fierce as a storm yet exceptionally splendid, he pushed his perception to the limit, trying to capture the traces and rhythm of the "Dao" within Yue Ying's attacks.

The forr self could find the subtleties of any opponent's or instructor's techniques under the disguise of the system, but later realized it was rely his innate talent.

Initially under the system's mask, he could master all skills in "instruction mode," and now, even when facing the ultimate "Dao," he felt not a hint of confusion.

The Devouring Star Blade in Bai E's hand shone with radiant gold and white light, and his blade technique no longer stuck to fixed moves but began flowing with perception and combat instinct.

At tis like a shooting star breaking the sky, at tis like a tidal wave engulfing, gradually integrating his spiritual energy, power of faith, cha performance, and combat skills.

Their battle in the galaxy turned into two intertwined and clashing streams of light, moving so fast that onlookers could hardly see the specific moves, only witnessing more frequent explosions of spiritual energy and shockwaves blooming.

Occasionally, a "tentacle" of the Bug Race strayed into the battle zone, only to be torn apart instantly by the residual waves of their combat.

In the core of the lee, Bai E fought with ever-greater vigor.

Under Yue Ying's pressure, which could be described as "death instruction," he felt a qualitative change happening in his understanding of power and control over combat.

The sensation was akin to touching the threshold encountered during Karian's planetary will convergence, which during this clash between life and death and the tempering of skills, beca clearer and closer.

"Dao..." Bai E ca to a realization in his heart.

His blade began to truly carry a hint of his own, rging the essence of protection, resistance, unyielding spirit, and the utmost in skill.

Yue Ying perceived Bai E's transformation, a faint, nearly undetectable mixture of relief and complexity flickering deep in her eyes beneath her surging battle intent and icy exterior.

Her attacks beca even fiercer, but the guidance within could only be understood by the two combatants.

"Just like that... keep going... surpass ..."

She whispered silently in her heart, while her sword transford into a more violent galaxy, slashing at the "sun" that was arduously gathering yet already beginning to shine.

The fierce battle in the starry sky entered a completely new phase that no one could have predicted.

Under the pressure of Yue Ying's sword force, which was like a raging storm yet hinted at guidance in every stroke, Bai E reached unprecedented focus.

He activated and fused everything he had learned along the way.

It was no longer a simple accumulation but a fusion aiming at deeper, more essential integration and sublimation under trendous pressure.

His blade ceased to be rely a weapon, transforming into an extension of his will.

Within the golden-white blade light, that trace of the "intention" to protect Mine Star, resist unyieldingly, and pursue the ultimate in skill grew clearer and more refined.

Every swing of the blade no longer rely followed techniques or instinct but seed to adhere to a more profound "trace," the nascent form of his personal combat "Dao."

"Rember this feeling!" Yue Ying's cold voice resounded again directly in Bai E's consciousness, but this ti it carried a resolution with a hint of acknowledgnt rather than a reminder.

"Use your blade to carve a path ahead!"

As soon as her words fell, Yue Ying's attack pattern abruptly changed!

The ethereal purple and silver-white sword light ceased its blind assault, instead aiming like a guiding star at a relatively weak node area exposed due to previous battles and internal energy fluctuations in a Bug Race dreadnought!

Simultaneously, her spiritual energy resonance mysteriously aligned with the nascent form of Bai E's "Dao," clearly pointing out that spot for him.

Without the need for words, Bai E instantly comprehended.

In that mont, he felt as if he, Yue Ying, the cha, and even the blade in his hand had rged into one.

All the power, will, and skill poured into the Devouring Star Blade!

"Slash!"

There was no roar, only a calm intention that seed capable of severing the fabric of the universe.

The "Star Emperor" cha and that slender figure separated suddenly and, almost at the sa instant, transford into two intercrossing streams of dazzling light!

One gold and white, the other ethereal purple and silver-white, like the sharpest double-edge blades in the universe, drawing two beautiful yet deadly arcs, slicing precisely through the weak point Yue Ying indicated on the Bug Race dreadnought!

"Screech——!!!"

It wasn't an explosion, but a sound like thick fabric being torn, a noise that made one's teeth ache.

The Bug Race dreadnought, always maneuvering quickly and shielded in multiple layers by plankton, had its thick biological armor easily sliced through by the two condensed beams of blade and sword light as if like butter under a hot knife!

The wound was deep enough to reveal the core, with its internal spiritual energy veins, fleshy cavities, and energy conduits completely severed and shredded!

More crucially, this strike seed to destroy a key coordination hub!

"Screech——!!!"

The heavily damaged dreadnought emitted a painful spiritual energy wail, with the ethereal green radiance on its surface turning chaotic and dim.

Its originally agile high-speed maneuvering ca to an abrupt halt, tilting and spinning in space like a kite whose string was cut.

The dense plankton surrounding it lost unified command and fell into disarray.

"Opportunity!" In the Mine Star command center, Katherine and Gong Yan shouted nearly in unison with their nerves taut.

"Launch a counterattack!"

No one needed to remind them; Bai E didn't need to give orders.

The strike, jointly made by Bai E and that mysterious strongman, sounded the horn of retaliation!
