Chapter 142: Pinnacle of Three Steps Battle
These young members of the Su family were instantly overjoyed."cousinA voice tinged with remorse rose."Xiaoming" Su Xin looked at the person who came."Cousin, I sincerely apologize for what happened..."Crazy Cloud, save me!!"
That burly middle-aged man in armor had already been certain of victory, but he suddenly heard the cry for help and instinctively looked over. As a result, he saw the sword-browed, defiant man running frantically with terror on his face. He was covered in blood, clearly injured. Behind him, a cold and stern young man wielding a sword was relentlessly pursuing him.
"How is that possible"
The armored, burly middle-aged man wore an expression of disbelief.
One chasing down another who has already achieved the state of one step Nirvana, when they themselves are only at the level of three steps Nirvana
Although he felt incredible disbelief, the burly middle-aged warrior in armor acted immediately. His boundless purple light enveloped and pressured forward, his figure swiftly heading towards the sword-browed, defiant man, wanting to come to his aid...
"Battle formation"
Looking at the purple light enveloping him from all sides, Su Xin's lips curled into a sneer.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! ~~
Fleeting afterimages exploded one after another. Even under the suppression of the formation, he still unleashed terrifying speed, catching up to the man with sword brows and a defiant air in an instant.
"Stop!"
A muscular middle-aged man in armor roared, wielding his sword to try and stop Su Xin.
Ke Suixin's figure only flickered slightly, already dodging the blade of light. His movements did not stop in the slightest, several terrifying sword shadows erupted simultaneously, shrouding the man with the sword eyebrows and arrogant expression.
That sword-browed and arrogant man also fought with all his might to resist, however, as fellow swordsmen, their swordsmanship was clearly not on the same level.
After ten fierce collisions, Su Xin made a breakthrough.
"A flash in the pan!"
Wow!
A breathtakingly beautiful and fierce sword light flashed.
Like the blooming of a flower that withers instantly, fleeting.
However, the speed was so fast that the sword-browed and defiant man couldn't react in time.
Hmph!
A sound of a sword piercing flesh rang out. The man with sword-like brows and a defiant air gaped, trying to say something, but before he could utter a word, his body began to fall limply.
“My sword strike... seems to have a touch of space-tear in it,” Su Xin chuckled.
The Six Styles of Flying Blood Sword Technique, after his refinement and improvement, have seen a significant boost in power.
And among these six sword techniques, the one he used most often, and which felt the best to use, was the "Fleeting Flower" technique.
This move, when he performed it, was very effortless, but the speed at which it burst forth in an instant was truly fast. The sword light swept across the void, and the process of cutting through the air also brought Su Xin a sense of relief.
"You, looking for death!"
A roar of anger suddenly erupted.
That burly middle-aged warrior finally arrived, but just in time to see the sword-browed, arrogant man being slain by Su Xin. Enraged, the giant war saber in his hand seemed to cleave the heavens and earth, directly slashing towards Su Xin. Its boundless might caused even the surrounding void to tremble.
"Three Steps to the Peak!"
Su Xin was not afraid at all. He unleashed his power, layers upon layers of countless sword shadows gathering together, and with a flash, the Shadow Stacking Style was executed instantly.
"Clang!"
A deafening roar shook the very air as an immensely powerful shockwave erupted from the collision of the two.
Although the two of them stood in mid-air, dozens of meters above the ground, with the shockwave rippling outward, the endless expanse of yellow sand beneath their feet was immediately churned up, forming a violent sandstorm.
Whoosh!
Su Xin's layered shadow style was only able to hold its own against the imposing middle-aged warrior in armor for a moment before he was sent flying by the terrifying power contained within the opponent's swordsmanship. He flew a full hundred meters before finally regaining his footing.
"As expected of a peak-stage Three Step master, this power is truly formidable," Su Xin secretly marveled.
In terms of sheer strength, he was only close to the peak of the second step. Even with his sword intent comprehension reaching the third level and the mysterious power within him boosting his swordsmanship, he was still just a relatively powerful figure among the three-step Nirvana realm.
But if he were to go head-to-head with a top-tier martial artist of the Three Steps Pinnacle, in terms of sheer strength and power, he would still fall short.
After a single strike, the imposing middle-aged warrior in armor did not press his attack. Instead, he halted mid-air.
"Wild clouds!"
The armored, burly middle-aged man's other companion had also walked over.
"Sword Storm... is dead."
The armored man in his prime had a very grim expression.
Jian Ran, having known him for many years, the two had always been partners in the Qingxuan battlefield, and could be considered old friends.
But today, this friend of his died.
"Damn it!!" The heavily armored middle-aged man glared coldly at Su Xin.
Just as I was battling with Fairy Xia, he arrived. Although I saw Su Xin arrive, since his cultivation was clearly only at the peak of one step, I didn't pay him any mind.
But he never expected that the reborn warrior standing before him, having reached the Step Nirvana realm, would possess such overwhelming strength.
From the moment Su Xin appeared, it was only a blink of an eye before Jian Ran couldn't withstand the onslaught and cried for help. While he arrived at the scene immediately to provide aid, he ultimately failed to save his friend, instead being forced to watch helplessly as his comrade died right before him.
"Mad clouds, what do we do" the armored, burly middle-aged man asked his remaining companion.
"Let's go!"
Although unwilling, the stout middle-aged man in armor made the wisest choice.
Jian Ran is dead, their three-person team has lost one.
...while the other party... that breathtaking woman who had been fighting him, her combat strength was only slightly weaker than his. But this newcomer who arrived later, at the peak of the Nirvana realm, could kill Jian Lan in such a short time, and when facing his full-strength attack, he could easily block it. Such power was probably stronger than that beautiful woman...
Both sides' strengths are now on the same level, and the other side might even be stronger.
If they continue fighting, they will be at even greater disadvantage.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two burly middle-aged men in armor immediately turned around and wanted to leave.
Upon seeing this, several people in Xia Xianzi's squad were overjoyed.
"Finally gone"
Xia Xianzi also relaxed her tone.
After all, she had only just broken through to the second stage of Nirvana. The reason she could withstand the burly middle-aged man in armor was that she used some special means. However, using these methods put a great burden on her. She had already reached her limit, and the majestic and holy phantom behind her was about to collapse.
She could no longer maintain the same overwhelming power as before, fortunately, the other party had no intention of continuing the fight.
However, the imposing middle-aged man in armor wanted to leave, but Su Xin was unwilling.
Just as the two were about to turn and leave, Su Xin's body suddenly surged with power, his sword unsheathed once more, launching a deadly attack. This sudden action startled all four members of Xia Xianzi's team.
"You're asking for it!"
"You think I'm afraid of you!"
That armored burly middle-aged man was filled with murderous intent, and he immediately changed direction to attack Su Xin.
The purple light that had always permeated the void around him continued to flow towards Su Xin.
"Formation"
Su Xin smiled, and the next moment, boundless blood clouds rolled out. In just a moment, they dispersed all the surrounding purple light. The blood clouds surged, replacing the surrounding purple light in the blink of an eye, shrouding the entire void in a blood cloud domain.
The Blood Cloud Killing Array, even in the Eastern Wasteland, was notorious for its ferocity. Even though Su Xin could only exert 50-60% of the Blood Cloud Killing Array's power at present, it was far beyond the reach of that burly middle-aged man's paltry purple light formation.
"What"
The armored, burly middle-aged man clearly hadn't expected his battle formation to be completely crushed. Under the blood cloud, a powerful domain pressure was already covering him.
But he was still unafraid.
In the blink of an eye, two figures collided once again in the void.
"Slaughter the mountain!"
The armored burly middle-aged man roared with a bellow, his gigantic battle saber slashing down majestically and ferociously, as if to cleave the heavens and earth in two.
And Su Xin's attack was still the Shadowing Style, layers upon layers of sword shadows converging together to unleash a fierce and ferocious strike.
Still head-on!
"Bang!"
As if two stars were colliding head-on, the yellow sand beneath their feet sank first as they were both thrown back by the shockwave. At this moment, Su Xin and the burly man in armor were sent flying in opposite directions.
"Impossible!!"
After standing firmly, the armored middle-aged man stared at Su Xin with an expression of disbelief.
Just moments ago, he clashed head-on with this Step Pinnacle expert, delivering a single strike that sent Su Xin flying. The disparity in their power and might is evident.
Can they still fight now, or will it be a head-on clash ... It's actually...a fierce battle of equals, with no clear difference in skill.
"Humph!"
Su Xin, however, just let out a cold smile.
The same shadow play, the same hard collision head-on.
Before, he didn't use the Blood Cloud Killing Formation. Instead, the sturdy middle-aged man in purple armor with a formidable aura was constantly suppressing him.
Prior to this, when he wielded sword techniques, he used the top-grade divine treasure Dragon Roaring God Sword. Now, in his hand, there is a cold, blood-colored divine sword.
This blood-colored divine sword was wielded by the man with sharp eyebrows and a defiant demeanor that he had just slain. It has now been refined by him, coming under his control.
The same swordsmanship, when wielded with a top-grade divine sword, is naturally different in power compared to wielding it with an ordinary divine sword.
With the blessing of the Blood Cloud Killing Formation, I am no longer afraid of him in a direct confrontation. And now... Su Xin's eyes were cold, "Kill!"
A low growl.
He instantly burst into nine afterimages at once.
The Nine Dreams Remnant Light Technique, when used within the Blood Cloud Domain, eliminates all sense of air resistance. It is this technique that reaches the most bizarre level of strangeness.
"This form" The heavily armored middle-aged man was surprised, but before he could react, Su Xin had already appeared beside him under the flicker of afterimages.
"A bad dream!"
Su Xin's sword flashed.
"Ouch!"
“Shadowed!”
"It's snowing heavily!"
Su Xin's swordsmanship erupted completely.
Every sword strike embodies the wielder's ultimate understanding of swordsmanship.
He performed each sword technique with great skill and fluidity.
His strength has already reached its maximum potential.
He is now incredibly excited, feeling like his blood is boiling!
"I can't. Four years of cultivation within Jiusheng Mountain... While this four-year period might only be a blink of an eye for others, for someone who has only lived over twenty years, it feels far too long."
Over the past four years, while he has made significant progress, the process was rather monotonous. Most importantly, during those four years, he never had a real fight with anyone.
Though he could endure loneliness, deep down, there was a bit of a fighter in him.
After four years of silence, I haven't even fought a single person, let alone engaged in life-or-death combat.
Even when he came to this Qingxuan Battlefield, initially venturing with the Canglong Squad on the outskirts of the Liu Sha Huangyu, he encountered only squads composed of warriors at the Second Step Nirvana Realm. He didn't even need to exert much strength.
Later, he found himself alone deep in the quicksand wasteland. He was ambushed by that frail old man who had undergone three cycles of nirvana. With a casual move, he killed him.
Until now, encountering this imposing middle-aged warrior with a peak cultivation level of three steps...
This armored man, a powerful middle-aged warrior, was truly formidable. Among those at the peak of the Three Steps, he would undoubtedly be considered an elite figure. However, it was precisely because of his strength that he felt agitated and even more unwilling to let the other party leave. Instead, he eagerly charged forward, eager to engage in a fierce battle.
This battle...
He was so excited, he felt every cell and pore in his body was cheering with joy.
After four years of silence, the strength he had accumulated was unleashed at this moment, without any reservation whatsoever!
