Chapter 6 Chapter 6 I have been saying this for two lifetimes
Xue Xianchen attacked quickly, and Ji Chu was fully focused, so he barely blocked the sword.
But before she could catch her breath, the opponent's second sword arrived. The attack angle of this sword was very tricky, and she was unable to dodge it, leaving a long wound on her left arm.
Although his real body was not injured, the pain was directly transmitted to his spiritual consciousness, and Ji Chu in the formation frowned subconsciously.
She pressed her left arm with her right wrist to confirm that the bones were not damaged, then ignored the wound and assumed a fighting stance.
Xue Xianchen swung his sword again.
He used the sword technique of the inner disciples of the Fu Yu Xian Sect. Although Ji Chu was not proficient in it, he knew some of the basics. After two moves, he figured out his sword technique and blocked the sword steadily.
Xu Ying's cheers were transmitted to the stage through the formation.
Ji Chu turned her head and looked in the direction of the voice. The outside was full of people watching the excitement. She only saw a bunch of heads and couldn't tell which one was Xu Ying.
She turned back again.
Xu Ying in the audience began to hit Jiang Chengxu's shoulders furiously:
"I told you you're blocking me! Can you please just move away!"
"Surrender, surrender, surrender, I will find a way..."
Jiang Chengxu raised his hands in surrender, then sighed, gathered his energy, and shouted to the crowd in front of him:
"The master is here!"
Everyone present was startled and subconsciously turned around to look for the leader.
Jiang Chengxu took the opportunity to pull Xu Ying to the front.
The others, realizing they had been tricked, cast angry glances.
Jiang Chengxu stiffened his neck and pretended not to know. He stood beside Xu Ying, his tall and strong figure absorbing all the dissatisfied glances.
On the stage, Ji Chu and Xue Xianchen have fought again.
In her previous life, she had no such opportunity to compete with others in a sword duel in broad daylight. She was always considered not good at swordsmanship, and even she herself had no confidence in using the sword.
But now on the stage, Ji Chu has shown excellent talent.
She couldn't catch Xue Xianchen's sword technique the first time, but she could barely dodge it the second time. The third time, she even began to try to imitate it and attack Xue Xianchen in return.
If his cultivation level wasn't too low, he would have had a chance to fight Xue Xianchen to a draw.
Xue Xianchen naturally discovered that she was learning his sword moves.
The reason why he didn't defeat Ji Chu at the beginning was because he had the upper hand and wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate her.
Unexpectedly, she took advantage of his trick and treated him as a free instructor and sparring partner.
Xue Xianchen snorted coldly. How could he let her get what she wanted?
The momentum of the sword in his hand changed, and it became a completely different sword technique.
The sword shadows are as chaotic as flowers, and the sword wind surrounds on all sides.
Ji Chu had never seen such a move before, and the sword shadows in front of him were extremely chaotic, making it impossible to find the pattern among them.
Every time he drew his sword to block, he only hit air and couldn't find the opponent's true position at all.
Jiang Chengxu was close enough to see clearly and immediately recognized the sword technique:
"The Xue family's unique sword technique, the Fanguang Sword Technique!"
Seeing Xu Ying's bewildered face, he added:
"This sword technique has complex moves. It may seem like there are hundreds or even thousands of them, but in reality, they are all used to confuse the enemy. You must find the opponent's position in order to avoid fatal attacks."
Xu Ying suddenly became nervous and looked towards the stage hurriedly.
Sure enough, when Ji Chu was dizzy, a sword suddenly stretched out from the flowers, came from behind her, and stabbed straight into her heart.
Ji Chu's pupils shrank. Although the sword was coming from behind her, she instinctively felt fear and hurriedly dodged to the side.
With a "puff", the long sword entered the body, and the left shoulder of Ji Chu's shadow on the stage suddenly turned bloody.
Ji Chu in the formation had no injuries on his shoulder, but his face suddenly turned pale, he lost his balance, and his hands were bounced off the stone pillar.
Her shadow on the stage suddenly stopped because she lost control.
"Ji Chu!"
Xu Ying hurriedly took a step forward, but was blocked by the invisible light column of the formation on the life and death stage. She could not get closer and could only shout to Ji Chu across the formation:
"How are you?"
Ji Chu lowered his head and had no strength to answer her. He could only press his left shoulder and shook his head to indicate that he was still alive.
Xue Xianchen noticed that her meridians were damaged, so he deliberately poured a large amount of spiritual power into the sword. As soon as it entered her body, it exploded wildly, causing her meridians to be damaged even more.
It looked like just a wound from a sword, but in fact all the meridians in the left half of the body were messed up because of this sword, making it difficult to even move.
As soon as Xu Ying saw Ji Chu's pale face, she knew that Xue Xianchen must have done something sinister, but she could not find any evidence. She was so angry that she stamped her feet. She could only hope that Ji Chu would suffer less before being defeated. She didn't care what kind of cultivation he was doing.
"I'm fine."
Ji Chu came to her senses, pressed her left shoulder and walked forward, placing her hand on the stone pillar again. The motionless shadow on the stage picked up the sword as she moved.
Seeing her like this, Xue Xianchen sneered and the sword shadow rose again.
Ji Chu was hit by a sword, and the left half of his body was somewhat out of control. Then another sword stabbed into his left knee.
The person in the formation lost his balance, dropped his hands, and knelt on the ground, suddenly spitting out a mouthful of blood.
This time the spiritual power on the sword was even more powerful, almost shattering her internal organs.
Unfortunately, her cultivation was too low, and she was unable to overcome it, and was suppressed by it instead.
Xue Xianchen deliberately avoided her vital parts so that she could not be defeated and bounced off the stage of life and death, and could only be forced to be "tortured" by him like a "cat playing with mouse".
Xu Ying was furious, but there was nothing she could do:
"If I stay on stage, I'll just continue to be plotted against by him. Is there no other way but to lose on purpose?"
Ji Chu shook his head: "No, if I lose on purpose, it would prove that I am unworthy of using a sword."
"What should I do then?"
If it weren't for the formation blocking him, Xu Ying would have wanted to draw her sword and stab Xue Xianchen to death right now.
Jiang Chengxu also rushed over:
"Ji Chu, since Xue Xianchen wants to torture you, I don't think he'll just use a killing move. This Fanguang Sword looks complicated, but it's not without flaws."
"Thank you very much."
Ji Chu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up with the help of the stone pillar.
My left knee felt like it had been dug out, and the pain was so severe that I could hardly feel the limb.
His head ached so much that it felt like it was about to explode. He couldn't open his eyes, and his vision was blurry. The people watching below the stage of life and death seemed to be an ink painting dropped into water, all shapes blurred together, and the boundaries were unclear.
Only the patterns on the stone pillars in front of me are particularly clear.
Ji Chu raised his hand, pressed it down, and gripped the hilt of the sword again.
"I didn't expect you to be able to stand up."
Xue Xianchen had a mocking look on his face:
"This face, stained with blood, is actually quite pitiful. No wonder you were able to trick Chen Ke into saving you."
Then he changed the subject:
"But if you're dreaming of using this to rise to the top and completely replace my sister, you're wrong! You're not even a hair's breadth away from her!"
"You've been saying the same thing for two lifetimes. How unoriginal..."
Ji Chu sighed to himself, then raised his hand, pushed the hair that fell in front of his eyes behind his ears, and said in a voice that only the two people on the stage could hear:
"You used this face to deceive Xue Wanning, didn't you? In fact, you are not even a hair... comparable to the real Xue Xianchen!"
Xue Xianchen's pupils shrank suddenly when he heard what she said, and his voice became particularly terrifying:
"What did you say?"
Ji Chu had his sword across his body, as if he didn't know what earth-shattering secret he had revealed:
"Stop talking nonsense and get started!"
Xue Xianchen couldn't laugh anymore.
He suspected that Ji Chu already knew his identity, but he couldn't tell from her expression how much she knew.
He lost the desire to continue torturing Ji Chu and just wanted to end the battle quickly. He increased the speed of his attack and the sword light flashed into fragmented light and shadow on the stage.
This was exactly what Ji Chu wanted.
Xue Xianchen hid his identity until the end, most likely for the sake of the divine bone, and he definitely didn't want to reveal his identity at this moment.
The more he wanted to get rid of himself quickly, the more likely he was to expose his flaws.
Ji Chu understood this feeling of confusion and anxiety too well.
She had stayed in this pain with no palpable boundaries for too long, so long that she had learned to coexist with it.
At this moment, the slight anxiety on Xue Xianchen's face and the slightly anxious trembling when he attacked were all clearly visible in her eyes.
Ji Chu looked at Xue Xianchen, as if he saw himself in his previous life who had no one to help him and was seeking death.
The chaotic and complex sword shadows suddenly became less scary in front of her.
A person who is filled with fear and is like a trapped animal cannot exert the full power of the sword in his hand. He will only keep his head down and pay attention to his wrist, and forget to look at the shadow behind him.
Ji Chu lowered his eyes.
After a moment, her eyes lit up:
“Found it!”
The long sword spun, drawing an arc of light in the air.
The sound of two sharp blades piercing into flesh was heard, one in front and one behind.
Ji Chu had a wound on his left shoulder near his heart and was ejected from the life and death stage.
The formation dispersed, and Xu Ying ran to her side in two or three steps and helped her stand up:
"Ji Chu, how are you? Are you in pain? Let's go to Yanyi Pavilion!"
Ji Chu smiled at her, his eyes sparkling like gems.
Opposite her, Xue Xianchen covered his neck in disbelief.
Just now, Ji Chu somehow managed to break his Fan Guang sword technique, found his true body among the countless chaotic sword shadows, and cut his neck with one sword!
Although he had no wounds on his body when he was ejected from the stage, the chill in his throat and the suffocating feeling of blood rushing up were too real. For a moment, he actually felt as if he had really been killed by her.
He actually lost!
Defeated by Ji Chu, a fake who had just gotten started and couldn't even hold a sword!
The outcome of the life and death arena was decided. Xue Xianchen's cultivation rapidly declined. The reality of death had not yet faded, and the pain of losing his spiritual power and cultivation came rapidly.
His face turned pale in an instant, no longer the handsome young man he used to be.
Xue Xianchen's cultivation turned into a spot of light and flew towards Ji Chu.
Xu Ying was very excited and took two steps back:
"Great! With this spiritual power, your damaged meridians can be healed all at once!"
Jiang Chengxu rarely argued with Xu Ying, but agreed:
"That's right. I'll ask Elder Tan for some medicinal pills to recuperate. Perhaps I can even directly upgrade my rank."
Ji Chu had never thought about such a good thing before, but when he heard them say this, he couldn't help but look forward to it.
On a cliff hidden in the clouds in the distance, the person who had been watching the life and death stage met Ji Chu's sparkling eyes.
Even though there was a distance between them, he could still feel her happiness at the moment, and his eyes, which had always been as cold as ice and snow, unconsciously became a little warmer.
Seeing that Ji Chu was safe, he withdrew his gaze, raised his hand to take the communication token handed to him by the headmaster, turned around and prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, just when Xue Xianchen's spiritual power and cultivation were about to enter Ji Chu's body, a spiritual power suddenly came from behind everyone and blocked the light ball wrapped in the cultivation.
Everyone was stunned, and then they saw a person coming on the wind. He was as beautiful as an orchid, gentle and unparalleled, with a truly peerless beauty.
Chen Ke took a few steps forward, squinted his eyes and stared at Ji Chu for a few breaths, then suddenly raised his hand and slapped her.
"evil creature!"
Ji Chu was stunned by the beating.
The other disciples were also startled by Shen Ke's slap.
The figure on the distant cliff who was about to leave stopped when he heard the sound, and his eyes turned cold as he looked towards the life and death stage.
The communication talisman turned into a paper crane and urged him beside him, and he pinched it with his fingertips and pressed it down.
