Dusk, like a heavy curtain, enveloped the summit of Yin-Yang Mountain, making the surrounding atmosphere increasingly oppressive, as if it could be ignited at any moment.
Chen Tingxue's sword, imbued with a sharp sword aura, shot straight towards Fang Han like a silver lightning bolt.
Elder Bai Mei's eyes widened in disbelief, his heart pounding wildly in his chest, almost bursting out of his chest.
In his view, as long as Chen Tingxue's sword strike succeeds, it will not only quickly end the duel with Fang Han, but also deal a heavy blow to Xiang Wantang.
Even if Xiang Wantang had a high level of cultivation, if Fang Han were killed by Chen Tingxue in front of her, she would definitely be thrown into a state of mental chaos in an instant.
Elder Bai Mei secretly plotted in his heart that as long as he seized this fleeting opportunity and launched a decisive attack, he might be able to break the stalemate with Xiang Wantang that had lasted for many years, and even join forces with Chen Tingxue to kill Xiang Wantang here.
In this way, the Yin-Yang Tree will undoubtedly fall into the hands of the Wuji Sect, and the sect's strength will surely experience a qualitative leap, making its dominance of this cultivation world just around the corner.
However, in stark contrast to Bai Mei's tension and anxiety, Xiang Wantang remained calm and composed, as if everything that was about to happen was within his expectations.
Although Fang Han appears to be only at the Foundation Establishment stage, Xiang Wantang knows that Fang Han's strength is unfathomable.
Previously, Fang Han's guidance on cultivation was precise and profound, benefiting even himself, a peak Yuan Dan realm expert, which was enough to prove Fang Han's extraordinary nature.
Just as Chen Tingxue's sword tip was about to touch Fang Han's throat, Fang Han finally moved.
The Azure Dragon Sword in his hand was like a black lightning bolt, thrusting out with an indomitable momentum.
This sword strike appears simple and unadorned, without any fancy moves, yet it contains boundless power.
The moment the Azure Dragon Sword clashed with Chen Tingxue's sword, a deafening dragon's roar suddenly rang out, as if a long-dormant dragon had been awakened.
Chen Tingxue felt an overwhelming force surge through the sword, making her hands go numb and her arm holding the sword tremble involuntarily.
In order to neutralize this powerful force, she instantly used several methods to deflect the force. Even so, her arms were still sore and numb from the shock, and she took half a step back.
"Take my sword too!"
Immediately, Fang Han roared, his voice like a thunderclap that exploded in the mountains, making the surrounding air buzz.
Before he finished speaking, the Azure Dragon Sword in his hand flashed with a light as dazzling as a blazing sun.
Fang Han did not choose to unleash his sword energy for ranged attacks, but instead planned to engage Chen Tingxue in close combat.
Chen Tingxue has lived for two hundred years and experienced countless life-and-death battles, so her close combat experience and skills far surpass those of ordinary people.
That's why she used the ultimate move, "Ten Thousand Swords Return to One," in close combat with Fang Han earlier, in order to defeat him quickly.
She never expected that Fang Han would attack her in the way she was good at.
Her eyes narrowed, and Fang Han's sword pressed down like a mountain, carrying an unstoppable momentum, as if it would shatter everything.
As the sect leader of the Wuji Sect, Chen Tingxue had dominated the cultivation world for over two hundred years and experienced countless fierce battles, but she had never seen such a sharp and domineering sword aura.
The Azure Dragon Sword in Fang Han's hand was like an ancient, ferocious dragon breaking free from its restraints. Every swing of the sword carried an overwhelming force, causing the surrounding space to tremble.
At this moment, Chen Tingxue had no time to ponder why Fang Han possessed such terrifying strength.
At the critical moment of life and death, the true energy within her body erupted like a raging volcano.
Her eyebrows furrowed, she let out a sharp cry, and her long sword danced in rapid succession, creating streaks of silver as she tried to block Fang Han's storm-like attacks.
Only now did she realize that she had been completely wrong in her judgment of Fang Han.
Although Fang Han was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, the combat power he unleashed far surpassed that of ordinary Core Formation stage experts, and even posed a huge threat to her, a veteran Core Formation stage expert.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
Their swords clashed fiercely once more, sparking dazzling flames.
This time, Chen Tingxue suffered a shock far beyond what she had imagined.
An overwhelming force surged wildly into her arm along the sword, causing the bones in her arm to crack and pop.
The skin on the web of her hand was instantly torn open, and blood gushed out like a fountain, staining her white sleeves red.
However, Chen Tingxue's inherent pride and competitiveness were fully unleashed.
Her beautiful eyes widened, burning with fierce fighting spirit. Ignoring the injury on her hand, she launched a counterattack in an instant.
She gathered all her inner energy into the longsword in her hand, and with an aura of earth-shattering power, she slashed fiercely at Fang Han.
"Heaven and Earth Slash!"
However, what met Chen Tingxue head-on was Fang Han's roar and even faster sword moves.
Fang Han's attack power seemed to have no upper limit; one move after another, the power of each move was constantly increasing.
Under Fang Han's relentless attacks, Chen Tingxue, who was initially full of confidence, quickly found herself in a passive defensive predicament.
Although she managed to hold on thanks to her rich combat experience and tenacious will, and was not knocked away by Fang Han, her internal energy was churning violently like a raging sea.
Her face was ashen, and a trickle of blood oozed from the corner of her mouth; clearly, she had suffered some internal injuries.
"Xiang Wantang, where did you find such a freak as Fang Han? This kid is too strong!"
When the Supreme Elder Bai Mei, the top expert of the Wuji Sect, saw that Fang Han's swordsmanship was unparalleled and that he had quickly suppressed Chen Tingxue, he was greatly surprised and his words were full of shock.
Chen Tingxue's combat strength is very strong. Even if he wanted to defeat his disciple, it would take a lot of effort. It would be impossible for him to suppress Chen Tingxue quickly, but Fang Han did it.
Now he understands why Xiang Wantang agreed to release him and Chen Tingxue from the formation for a one-on-one duel.
Because Fang Han could completely overwhelm Chen Tingxue.
"Brother Fang Han might be even stronger than me. How can your beautiful disciple handle this?"
Xiang Wantang laughed: "Let Chen Tingxue admit defeat. Brother Fang Han might take pity on her and let her go. Otherwise, she, the dignified sect leader of Wuji Sect, will perish today."
"Xiang Wantang, don't be so smug. Even if my apprentice Chen Tingxue loses to Fang Han, I will not lose to you. According to the previous bet, you must win both matches to win."
The White-Browed Elder still harbored illusions.
"White Eyebrows, it's true that I've fought with you, old man, for so many years without ever gaining the upper hand, but that's because I hadn't met Brother Fang Han yet. Now, you're no match for me."
Xiang Wantang smiled confidently: "You should make the first move, otherwise you won't have many opportunities to attack me."
"snort!"
The White-Browed Elder let out a cold snort, and with a fierce strike of his heavy sword, a sharp sword aura swept towards Wan Tang in an instant.
