Chapter 493 Swordplay Clash



Ding ding ding…

Shang Wu and his companion saw nothing, but they heard the sound of weapons clashing.

Did they make a move?

Just as she was wondering, a flash of blood appeared on Luo Xiyun's shoulder, revealing a wound.

Meanwhile, a mark appeared on the hem of Shangwu's clothes.

Clearly, in the exchange of their invisible sword intents, Luo Xiyun was slightly outmatched.

"Talent."

Luo Xiyun reached out and touched it, and the warm blood stained her hand, only then realizing that she was injured.

Even if one were to immerse oneself in the way of swordsmanship for a lifetime, it would not be as valuable as the more than twenty years of sword practice in Shangwu.

However, it was just a casual remark; Luo Xiyun's eyes were filled with more relief than anything else.

The two simultaneously took out longswords from their spatial bracelets.

The longsword in Luo Xiyun's hand was a standard three feet long, with bandages wrapped around the hilt like dusk, and the blade gleaming with black light.

Shang Wu's sword was slightly longer, with a pure white blade. Although the bandages on the handle were well wrapped, they were clearly inferior to Luo Xiyun's sword.

After all, his sword was wrapped by a professional sword protector, while Shangwu's sword was wrapped by Xu Ruiling herself.

Although she studied very hard, the gap was still noticeable compared to professionals.

Although the two have not yet made a move, one can glean some clues about their reasons for practicing swordsmanship from their longswords.

The Iceless Sword Domain spread rapidly, with ice crystals falling one after another. Although the restrained sword energy made them look very beautiful, they concealed a deadly danger.

Or perhaps, as they fell, they were suddenly detonated for some unknown reason, as if they had touched something unseen.

"Shadowless".

Luo Xiyun spoke, then slowly rose to her feet: "Be careful."

Just like the name of his sword domain, Luo Xiyun's shadow disappeared at this moment.

But that's because he was moving too fast, leaving afterimages in his place, which is why there was no shadow.

Shangwu seemed to have anticipated his speed.

After all, Luo Xiyun was once his teacher, and his specialty was known for its speed.

Now that he has mastered his superpowers and comprehended the formation of his domain, his speed will only increase!

Ice flowers exploded around him, indicating Luo Xiyun's movement. Soon, ice crystals shattered on his lower left side, before they exploded.

Without pausing, Shangwu blocked the upward slash with his sword.

He knew Luo Hongxia's speed and understood that the speed at which the ice crystals exploded could not keep up with the speed at which he drew his sword, so he was already prepared to intercept the attack the moment he noticed the anomaly.

When one move failed, the two changed tactics simultaneously.

Shang Wu swung his sword down as if in his daily training, while Luo Xiyun also tilted his sword horizontally, and saw that his seemingly casual strike was redirected toward the ground.

Rumble...

The sword landed, seemingly an ordinary slash, but it left a huge sword mark on the ground that stretched for miles.

As they both looked to see the traces left by the sword strikes, their eyes met, and they both paused for a moment.

After stillness comes movement!

In an instant, the sword light flashed, and countless sword energies scattered in all directions. Sparks flew continuously as the longswords collided, and dozens of swords had already been swung at this moment.

Qi Jie and Han Jisheng could not see the two men's movements; they could only glean a glimpse of the intensity of their battle from the ravines created by the surrounding sword energy.

That sword energy, capable of tearing through mountains, would surely shatter a person into two or three pieces if it landed on them.

As a swordsman known for his offensive prowess, Shangwu, despite having absorbed the potion, couldn't withstand even a single strike from Luo Xiyun's Shadowless Sword Qi.

The same applies to the setting sun.

In a sense, the fight between the two was very fair, with the winner determined by swordsmanship!

Bang!

The two sword energies slashed wildly across the earth as the two longswords clashed.

Luo Xiyun and Shang Wu stared intently at each other, their longswords locked in a stalemate, neither able to gain the upper hand.

But this balance was quickly broken. Shangwu, having fused with the potion, gained a power boost that allowed him to gradually gain the upper hand, but this did little to Luo Xiyun, who had a speed advantage.

With a clever flick of his wrist, Shangwu's longsword was blocked. Seeing Shangwu's wide-open defenses, Luo Xiyun showed no hesitation and unleashed a burst of invisible sword energy!

In an instant, Shangwu felt the threat of death!

A surge of sword intent enveloped his hand.

Shang Wu remained calm and instantly discerned the flaw in Luo Xiyun's move.

Needs a short time to build up strength!

In that instant, a cold, icy wind blew around him, carrying sword energy that was like a meat grinder, directly filling Luo Xiyun's surroundings!

That's enough to stop him from swinging that sword!

Feeling somewhat helpless at being seen through, Luo Xiyun disappeared from the spot once again.

Shang Wu suddenly turned around and began a second battle with Luo Xiyun!

Boom boom boom!

From the initial silent clash of sword intent, to now, every collision between the two unleashes terrifying sword energy, tearing apart the surrounding mountains and even space itself.

This left Qi Jie and Han Jisheng with absolutely no intention of interfering.

Without comprehending their domains, although both pushed their abilities to the limit, they still had no hope of competing against two contestants who had formed their domains.

Bang!

Luo Xiyun found an opportunity and used his sword to send Shang Wu flying into the air.

The latter, using this power, floated in the air, and countless ice crystals began to merge into the longsword. The biting cold wind howled all around, constantly swirling around the sword.

Luo Xiyun's expression turned serious. Instead of stopping Shang Wu from gathering his strength, he gripped the longsword in his hand and let it slowly disappear, as if he were holding an invisible sword.

Their eyes met, and the next second they both vanished from the spot!

A sharp, cold wind howled in the air, whipping up a pale blue tornado, the tip of which was the point of the sword, carrying a violent sword aura like divine punishment!

Luo Xiyun's sword aura was concealed, making the shape of the longsword unclear, as if it had vanished. Yet, it still gave people a strong sense of unease, making them wonder when it would strike them.

Click...

Before the swords even clashed, their sword energies clashed first, causing the space at the point of impact to crack and spread out with marks from the sword energies.

With a soft "plop".

That was the sound of a longsword piercing flesh.

Shangwu stared in astonishment at the wound that had appeared on his chest, his eyes wide with surprise.

Three feet?

That doesn't seem right.

He looked at Luo Xiyun with a sense of unfamiliarity; that rigid teacher who only recognized a three-foot-long sword as the true sword.

Has the sword in my hand grown longer at this moment?

Boom!

Terrifying sword energy exploded within Shang Wu and Luo Xiyun's bodies.

The sword pierced through, and both were hit.

Luo Xiyun had a chance to avoid it, but he chose to pierce Shangwu's body with the Shadowless Sword instead of using it to block the attack.

The price of doing this is that both sides will perish!

The sharp sword energy exploded within his body, and Luo Xiyun couldn't even leave behind a last word before turning into ashes in an instant.

Shangwu swayed slightly, clearly indicating he was still alive.
