"You want to die together? Do you think you can threaten me like this? Don't you look at your own strength? Do you have the qualifications?" Seeing Mu Hanyan making a gesture of dying together, Zong Dingfang was completely disdainful and didn't even blink.
Zong Dingfang's sword gleamed like an eagle spreading its wings, soaring into the sky as it flew towards Mu Hanyan. But at this moment, his eyelids suddenly twitched.
A tiny spark of starlight suddenly flickered from Mu Hanyan's plain and simple longsword. Though only a tiny glint, the bright silver light stung her eyes. Then, the entire blade emanated a cold light like snow and frost.
Following Mu Hanyan's lightning-fast sword strike, the frost and snow seemed to stir, like falling snowflakes dancing across the sky. Being surrounded by the frost and snow gave one the illusion of being in a world of ice and snow.
Zong Dingfang's expression suddenly changed! Concentrating one's energy on the sword was the mark of a fifth-rank swordsman, while converging the sword into a single point marked the sixth-rank. Mu Hanyan had previously kept her sword light hidden, revealing only now that her energy had been restrained to an extremely high level. In other words, her true combat power had reached at least the seventh-rank swordsman.
What surprised him the most was that the frost and snow on the sword were dancing like a dream, which was more like the exclusive skill of the eighth-level swordsman: the illusion sword technique!
When a swordsman's longsword reaches peak speed, it can create a variety of phantom illusions with its blade light, making it difficult to distinguish between real and fake, and impossible to defend against. This is the ultimate weapon of an eighth-level swordsman. However, achieving such speeds requires more than the quality of an ordinary longsword can withstand, so it requires the infusion of even more refined and concentrated energy.
In short, even if Mu Hanyan's Frost and Snow Fantasy Sword is still in its infancy and its power may not be that great, it at least shows that she has strength that is infinitely close to that of an eighth-level swordsman.
Zong Dingfang could still ignore a sixth-rank swordsman, but he couldn't ignore an eighth-rank swordsman. Even if Mu Hanyan's mutually assured destruction sword power couldn't kill him, it would still injure him severely.
"What a cunning boy! No wonder he dared to stay. It turns out he was hiding his strength! Well, let me dissolve this sword first, and then cut him into pieces later." Zong Dingfang hated him secretly in his heart, but he had to put away his sword and go back to defend.
"Clang!" The two swords collided, making a dragon's roar.
Zong Dingfang groaned, and his body flew out like a kite with a broken string, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Time came to a brief standstill. Hua Yue Zirong and others looked at Mu Hanyan in disbelief, almost thinking that there was something wrong with their eyes.
How could this be possible? Mu Hanyan had actually sent Zong Dingfang flying with a single strike, seemingly seriously injured. Could it be that her strength had improved again? Even if her training speed was incredibly fast, it was impossible for her to advance from the sixth-rank swordsman to the tenth-rank in such a short time. Furthermore, that strike just now only showed signs of being at the eighth-rank, at best. How could she have seriously injured Zong Dingfang, a tenth-rank swordsman?
Mu Hanyan, holding the Hanxiao Sword, was briefly distracted: her true combat power was actually still that of a seventh-level swordsman, and she was able to unleash the Frost and Snow Illusion Sword equivalent to the eighth-level, relying on the power of the Hanxiao Sword itself.
It is said that this Hanxiao Sword, made by a master, was infused with the power of frost and snow when it was forged, which greatly increased the power of sword skills. With her combat power exceeding that of an ordinary seventh-level swordsman, it is not surprising that she can use the Frost and Snow Phantom Sword across levels.
But even if that's the case, it wouldn't seriously injure Zong Dingfang, who is at the level of a great swordsman, right?
