The two magical treasures clashed without any fancy moves, each activating their own treasures to see who was more powerful and could gain the upper hand first.
The sword and the saber were right next to each other in the void. It was as if an invisible force was driving the two magical treasures forward, one advancing and the other advancing.
Neither of the two magical treasures could gain an advantage; they were evenly matched and neither could gain the upper hand!
On the other side, although Su Xue was only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, her two tails were deadly weapons. Her black tail defended against the opponent's attacks, while her white tail launched attacks.
Su Xue didn't even need to use any of her other magical treasures; she could render Elder Yi helpless simply by relying on her two tails.
The battle between the two sides was at a stalemate, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.
Liu Xiaoyuan was unwilling to let the battle continue in this stalemate, as it was disadvantageous to him. Time was limited, and Liu Xiaoyuan had to resolve the battle within the allotted time.
"Retract!" Liu Xiaoyuan gave the command to the Flying Cloud Sword, which flew back directly. Elder Ni's Prison Breaking Blade flew directly towards Liu Xiaoyuan without any obstruction.
The Prison Breaker Blade spun in the air, moving with lightning speed, and arrived in front of Liu Xiaoyuan in an instant.
Just as the Prison-Breaking Blade was about to strike him, Liu Xiaoyuan vanished from his spot. At the same time, the Flying Cloud Sword seized the opportunity and flew towards Elder Ni.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Xiaoyuan appeared in front of him. Elder Ni, facing the sword flying from Liu Xiaoyuan, naturally had no choice but to dodge.
However, at that moment, Elder Ni suddenly noticed that the Flying Cloud Sword began to multiply from one to two, from two to four, from four to eight...
The Flying Cloud Sword instantly transformed into sixteen flying swords, which surrounded Elder Ni from all directions, trapping him in the center.
At this moment, Elder Ni could not distinguish which one was the real Flying Cloud Sword, because among these sixteen flying swords, only one was genuine.
However, for a while, Elder Ni really couldn't tell which one was the real Flying Cloud Sword. This gave Elder Ni a real headache, as it concerned his life. If he didn't make an accurate judgment, he might be injured by the real Flying Cloud Sword.
As Elder Ni made his assessment, he also tried to recall his Prison-Breaking Blade.
However, Liu Xiaoyuan would not give him that chance. He immediately activated the Flying Cloud Sword with all his might and surrounded Elder Ni.
Elder Ni seemed to smell the scent of death, because after the sixteen flying swords surrounded them, the entire small space was filled with a terrifying aura.
Since the Prison-Breaking Blade couldn't arrive in time, Elder Ni had no choice but to take a gamble, hoping he was right. Otherwise, once the sixteen flying swords were truly assembled, it would be all over.
"Open for me!" Elder Ni took out a mid-grade magic weapon and hurled it at the flying sword above his head, hoping it was a fake.
However, Elder Ni's all-out attack only made the flying sword flying towards his head tremble a few times.
"Could this flying sword be real?" Elder Ni thought to himself as he flew to the left. Now that the real Flying Cloud Sword had been confirmed, the remaining fifteen flying swords were all fake, mere incarnations.
Elder Ni was somewhat impressed with his own luck at this moment. Why was he so lucky? It was simply amazing that he encountered a real flying sword as soon as he made a move.
Since the other flying swords are all avatars, they can be easily broken.
Elder Ni immediately gripped his magic weapon and flew to the left. Upon seeing the flying sword coming towards him, Elder Ni directly confronted it head-on.
As a result, the flying sword did not perish as Elder Ni had imagined; instead, it merely trembled.
Elder Ni was completely dumbfounded upon seeing this. What was going on? Were these sixteen flying swords real, or just avatars?
Of these sixteen flying swords, only one is the true Flying Cloud Sword, while the other fifteen are clones. However, the reason why the other fifteen flying swords are still so powerful is entirely due to the late-stage Golden Core sword immortal that Liu Xiaoyuan summoned.
The swordsmanship this swordsman practiced was called "Heavenly Net Sword Technique"! It was a very common name for a sword technique, but its power was extraordinary and anything but common.
A net of heaven and earth, as the name suggests, means you can't escape!
Once you have successfully mastered the Heavenly Net Sword Technique, you can transform your flying sword into countless flying swords, which will then fly towards your opponent like a net.
However, this late-stage Golden Core cultivator had not yet mastered this sword technique, so he could only transform the flying sword into sixteen flying swords.
Elder Ni panicked immediately. If he couldn't escape, he would be riddled with holes by these sixteen flying swords.
"Brother, spare my life!" Elder Ni realized he couldn't escape and begged for mercy.
As the saying goes, "Where there's life, there's hope," Elder Ni thought. He believed that as long as he was alive, he would have plenty of opportunities to take revenge in the future.
Liu Xiaoyuan sneered and said, "Sorry, you have to die today!"
When Elder Ni saw that Liu Xiaoyuan was unwilling to spare his life, a hint of hatred flashed in his eyes, and his expression turned sinister.
"Since that's the case, let's all perish together!" Elder Ni said viciously, then burst into laughter as if he had gone mad!
"Elder Ni, no!" Elder Yi, who was in the middle of the battle, was startled when he heard this and shouted to Elder Ni.
Elder Yi already knew what Elder Ni was going to do. Elder Ni saw that he had no hope of escaping and was about to self-destruct his golden core.
The power of a late-stage Golden Core cultivator's self-destruction is absolutely terrifying. Even a Nascent Soul cultivator in the central area of the explosion would be instantly killed.
Elder Yi told Elder Ni not to act recklessly, because he was afraid that the terrifying energy from Elder Ni's self-destruction of his golden core would affect him and harm him as well.
Elder Ni didn't care about anything else now; he only wanted to drag Liu Xiaoyuan down with him to die together. As for his companion Elder Yi, he didn't care about him anyway, since he was going to die anyway.
"Haha... Let's die together!" Elder Ni laughed, like a madman, and directly detonated his golden core.
At first, Liu Xiaoyuan had no idea what Elder Ni was going to do. Because Liu Xiaoyuan had never encountered such a thing before and had no experience at all.
However, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately got the answer from the mind of the late-stage Golden Core cultivator: Elder Ni was planning to self-destruct his Golden Core, causing everyone to perish together.
Liu Xiaoyuan had already found the answer to the question of a late-stage Golden Core cultivator self-destructing from the memories of that cultivator. If the opponent successfully self-destructed, he and Su Xue would likely both suffer.
However, it was too late for Liu Xiaoyuan to stop it. Before the sixteen flying swords could send Elder Ni to his death, Elder Ni himself had already begun to circulate his energy and detonate his golden core.
"No!" Elder Yi roared, feeling as if he had been fucked by a female dog within a ten-kilometer radius!
Starting today, I'll be working past midnight. There's no other way; the book's sales are terrible. Seeing those low results completely kills my motivation. Can you imagine? I spend over four hours a day writing, only to earn a little over a thousand yuan a month. Such effort and reward...
Give your body and mind a rest. I'm sorry to all my readers who have supported me.
