Neither of them spoke, they just looked at each other quietly.
In the small courtyard, the atmosphere was as quiet as death.
After a while, Wei Zong spoke first and broke the silence.
"You came!"
Li Shengxuan nodded: "I'm coming!"
Wei Zong raised his head: "I knew you would come."
Li Shengxuan clenched the sword in his hand: "Of course I will come, of course you know. Back then, I lost to you in the Tianjiao sword debate. At that time, I was the first in the competition with the younger generation of warriors. Lost for the first time!"
Li Shengxuan's eyes lit up, like a little sun, and he said slowly: "Before, I always had my invincible posture, sweeping everything." As he spoke, he stared at Wei Zong: " Before I met you, I even thought that no one in the entire universe could defeat me at the same level!"
"But...you showed up! You defeated me, and you were still a big step behind me!"
Li Shengxuan was talking slowly, and Wei Zong didn't interrupt him, just listened quietly.
He knew that Li Shengxuan must have been suppressing these words for a long time and wanted to vent them out.
"After losing to you, my Taoist heart was almost damaged during that period. I even doubted the meaning of my swordsmanship. Can I... really be invincible? Even invincible people in the same realm can't do it. So, how can I be invincible? So, during that time, I fell into the most profound confusion since I started practicing..."
"But you still came out!" Wei Zong looked a little grim.
"Yes, I have come out!" Li Shengxuan said firmly, as if there was a divine light flashing in his eyes: "After all, I am the Sword King Li Shengxuan, and my pride will not allow me to sink!"
"I finally found a new meaning, became stronger, and my sword became more indestructible!"
As he spoke, Li Shengxuan slowly raised his hand and grasped the long sword in his hand.
"You must know what happened later. Being defeated by you made me stronger. After I figured out some things, my realm began to advance by leaps and bounds. After entering the Guiyi Realm, I learned the principles that are difficult for others to understand. In front of me, it is as simple as eating and drinking water. It only took me less than a month to go from the first step of the Tao to perfection, then to the shortcut and entry into the Tao..."
Speaking of this, Li Shengxuan was a little proud.
Of course, he also has pride.
"With my strength, I can't find an opponent in the second step in the world, so I came to the battlefield outside the territory, hoping to find a stronger opponent to hone. Not long after I came, I met a blind man named Setting Sun, and he actually dared to peek at the sword in my hand, so...in order to let him get what he wanted, I killed him with the sword in my hand!"
As he spoke, Li Shengxuan recalled.
"I didn't know his identity at the time. I just thought that this person was pretty good. It was a good choice to come to the extraterritorial battlefield. Anyone can find someone with this kind of strength. Unfortunately, I later found out that in the entire extraterritorial battlefield, people like him were... There are only ten of them...and I have met all the other monsters...and fought with them respectively..."
"Unfortunately, although their strength is very strong, they are still on par with the setting sun. If I can kill the setting sun, I can also kill them... They cannot allow me to sharpen my own strength."
Hearing what Li Shengxuan said, Wei Zong suddenly said: "What about Emperor Wu, have you ever fought against him?"
"We have fought! But it was just a taste." Li Shengxuan said: "The Emperor Wu... is not actually a second-level warrior. There is no point in fighting him."
Li Shengxuan's words just confirmed Wei Zong's guess.
It was exactly what he thought.
Because Emperor Wu is really extremely powerful, you must know that among the warriors in the second step, people like Wei Zong are already so powerful that no one has ever done it before or since. They are considered to be the pinnacle of the second step.
But even for such a powerful Wei Zong, when facing Emperor Wu, he still felt that the opponent was unfathomable, like an abyss. This feeling was something that even the average Xiaoyao realm powerhouse could not bring to him.
In other words, the current Emperor Wu gave Wei Zong the feeling that he was much more powerful than those powerful men in the Xiaoyao Realm.
This is not normal!
Since Wei Zong was well-informed, he had some vague guesses in his mind. However, out of the protection of each other's secrets, Wei Zong did not pry too much about Emperor Wu, and just treated it as if he did not know.
At this time, Li Shengxuan said that Emperor Wu was not considered a second-level warrior, which just confirmed Wei Zong's previous guess.
At this time, Li Shengxuan shook his head and said calmly to Wei Zong: "Because none of them can play a role in sharpening my strength, and I don't want to enter the third step immediately, so I found a place to practice quietly.
"
"At that time, I had only one purpose in my heart, and that was... to wait for you!"
Li Shengxuan stared at Wei Zong and said with stern eyes: "I know that with your character, you will definitely go to the battlefield outside the territory, so I will wait for you here. In my heart, only you are worthy of being my opponent and letting me rise.
To sharpen your strength. Who would have thought that later..."
When he said this, he paused slightly.
Wei Zong smiled and said, "I disappoint you?"
"Yes!" Li Shengxuan had nothing to hide. He nodded and said: "Who would have thought that when you first came to the battlefield outside the territory, you didn't even understand the Dao Principles. This kind of strength really makes me unable to have the desire to fight.
.However, I still trust you. In my opinion, with your talent, it is only a matter of time before you can break through to the same level as me..."
"This time, I guessed it right!"
Li Shengxuan said with glaring eyes: "This time you showed up and killed Ning Kong with a strong force. I knew that my chance had come. Ning Kong is already very strong. After all, as one of the top ten monsters, even if
Among all the heavens and worlds, they are considered to be the most advanced ones in the second step. But in your hands, they have not made a single move..."
Li Shengxuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and the sword energy began to slowly flow out. Even the surrounding space began to have cracks. Just his eyes could produce such strange phenomena. It can be imagined that Li Shengxuan is now powerful.
To what extent.
"So, I know, I should come to you!"
Li Shengxuan suddenly raised his sword.
"Come on, continue our previous battle. After such a long period of training, I will never give it to you again this time. I swear, I will never do it!"
