Hai Shang Youruo's face is as white and delicate as egg white, and she is very cute. With her small hands, one holding a purple bamboo fishing rod and the other holding a horo fish, she faced Zhang Ruochen's sword that was coming at him like a bamboo.
Although the time rules in the Five Realms Heaven were completely squeezed out by the rules of swordsmanship, around her, the realm of absolute self-empty time appeared.
The absolute self-empty time domain silently blocks Shen Yuan's ancient sword three feet away.
She stared at Zhang Ruochen calmly.
She saw that the tip of the sword penetrated virtual time and kept approaching her heart.
Two feet, one foot...
"Your progress is really fast. If you master Sword Seventeen, you might really be able to defeat me, but Sword Sixteen is not enough."
Just when Shen Yuan's ancient sword reached her eyebrows, Hai Shang Youruo swung out Zizhu in his hand.
It was just a piece of bamboo, but it was like a peerless sword, containing unparalleled sword power. The purple bamboo struck Zhang Ruochen hard, making an ear-splitting sound, and knocked him back.
"Hey! Have you also cultivated the realm of absolute self-virtual time?"
Hai Shang Youruo has red lips, white teeth, and slightly bright eyes.
Because Zizhu didn't really hit Zhang Ruochen just now. When he got close to Zhang Ruochen, time stopped for a moment. At that moment, Zhang Ruochen retreated quickly.
Zhang Ruochen's body shape is as straight as a peak, and an invisible Tai Chi circle appears around his body, with Yin and Yang Qi flowing inside.
Tai Chi circles, Yin and Yang, are crisscrossed and everywhere.
"The realm of absolute self-empty time? No, it's higher than this."
The five realms of heaven turned into a sea of time-marked light spots. Zhang Ruochen shuttled among the light spots. His footwork was smooth and flowing, containing wonderful laws, and he struck out the second sword.
"The light of time!"
This is the seventh level of the Time Sword Technique, the Fleeting Time Sword Technique!
After three thousand years of practice, although the fleeting swordsmanship has not yet been perfected, it has already become a master.
The most important thing in time swordsmanship is speed. Use time as an advantage to make yourself faster and make the enemy slower. Time is the first factor that determines speed.
At the same time, time can break all laws.
No matter how powerful the defense is, it will be vulnerable to the power of time.
Just like the divine power of Saint Monk Xumi to protect the Kunlun Realm at the beginning, as time passed, one hundred thousand years later, it became ineffective. The power of a Buddha cannot stop the erosion of time.
The monks below the sundial all stopped practicing and stood up to watch the battle.
There are not only Xu Tathagata and Gong Nanfeng, but also Que.
The two people who were fighting each other felt that the opponent's attack was as fast as lightning and as fast as wind and thunder. In an instant, they would fight hundreds of times.
However, in the eyes of the three people watching the battle, the speed of the two of them was very slow, and they could clearly see the changes in their moves.
Every time Zhang Ruochen attacked, the sword in his hand was avoided by Zizhu before it reached Hai Shang Youruo. From the beginning to the end, Hai Shang Youruo stood on the same spot, holding a fish in one hand and a bamboo pole in the other.
fight back.
In the eyes of any monk, Zhang Ruochen was absolutely crushed and could not get close to Hai Shang Youruo. In fact, every time he attacked with his sword, he could only use half of it.
The other half cannot be used at all.
But Hai Shang Youruo frowned slightly. It seemed that she was the one who forced Zhang Ruochen back every time. In fact, her purpose was not to force Zhang Ruochen back at all, but to severely injure Zhang Ruochen.
It's just that Zhang Ruochen is not what he used to be. He can see ahead of time every time and escape unscathed.
Compared with the first time Zhang Ruochen came to Five Realms Heaven, his combat power has undergone earth-shaking changes. His difficulty in dealing with him has increased more than ten times.
If he hadn't witnessed his step-by-step cultivation process with his own eyes, Hai Shang Youruo wouldn't have believed that a god could achieve such a great improvement after only three thousand years of cultivation.
After 30,000 years of cultivation, it is impossible to improve so much.
"puff!"
I don’t know how many blows they exchanged, but Hai Shang Youruo finally took a step forward, with lotus growing under his feet, stepping through time and space. Before Zhang Ruochen could retreat again, he tapped the purple bamboo in his hand on his chest.
On the chest, the golden light swelled, and loud Sanskrit sounds sounded.
Zhang Ruochen's powerful physical defense blocked Zizhu, and he did not end up with his body being pierced. However, his internal organs were damaged, and divine blood spit out from his mouth.
Zhang Ruochen flew away and fell below the sundial.
"dust!"
Gong Nanfeng rushed over, helped Zhang Ruochen up, and said: "Why are you messing with her? She is Hai Shang Youruo. Even though she looks like a little girl, she looks very cute, but she has practiced hundreds of thousands of
Year."
Hai Shangyouruo's long silver hair danced in the wind, and his voice was clear and crisp as he said: "Zhang Ruochen, I have always been unable to understand that you are obviously mentally strong and have practiced formations, talismans, illusions...etc., many kinds of magic.
, why don’t you use it when you fight me?”
"There is also the sundial. If you urge the sundial to fight with me, you may not be so severely suppressed by me in the way of time."
Zhang Ruochen's attainments in the way of time are not weak, but the gap between her cultivation time and Haishang Youruo's is too big. With more than 10,000 years of practice, how can it be possible to catch up with her hundreds of thousands of years of hard work?
Zhang Ruochen stood up, his figure gradually straightened up, and there were blood stains on the corners of his mouth. He smiled and said: "The purpose of my fight with you is to hone the way of swordsmanship and the way of time. The purpose of practicing in the Five Realms Heaven is to practice in seclusion. I am the one who can defeat you."
On the road to cultivation, there is a difficulty that needs to be overcome, but it is by no means the purpose of cultivation."
Hai Shang Youruo nodded slightly and walked into the future temple with elegant steps.
Gong Nanfeng sighed: "You've been beaten like this, so why don't you pretend to be so, okay?"
Quedao: "With Brother Ruochen's current strength, if we really have to fight to the death, it's hard to say who will die."
Que Ke knows that Xu Tian has not prohibited Zhang Ruochen from using spiritual power and artifacts. If he really wants to use the six divine swords, the sundial, and the anti-god monument, plus the eighteen rounds of Yin and Yang, can Hai Shang Youruo still have the upper hand?
not necessarily.
At this point, Que realized that Zhang Ruochen's real purpose was not to defeat Hai Shang Youruo at all, but to defeat himself. He deliberately bound himself to defeat his opponent with his purest strength.
As long as he can defeat Hai Shang Youruo and leave the Destiny Mountain, Zhang Ruochen will completely break free from the shackles. Even if he loses the old ghoul, he can still have his own position in the Infinite Realm without using the Ancestral Soul Sword.
Just like a person who practices the art of lightening oneself, he takes off the sandbags on his body.
At that time, it will be the time for Zhang Ruochen to truly compete with the Great God of Taixu Realm.
Thinking of this, Que couldn't help but sigh: "The Taixu Realm!"
Zhang Ruochen is now only one step away from the Zhanfeng Taixu realm. And he is pretentious, but if he wants to reach the Zhanfeng Taixu realm, he will not be able to do it even if he practices for another hundred thousand years.
Unconsciously, the gap has become so huge that it is beyond reach.
"Any so-called genius born in this era is a sad thing."
When Xu Ru looked at Zhang Ruochen, he also had the feeling of a mountain standing tall in his heart, just like a goshawk that can look down at the world, but when it looks at the sky, it cannot see the height of the sky.
Zhang Ruochen today is the sky in Xu Rulai's eyes, and he can no longer see how high it is!
There was a time when he and Zhang Ruochen were on the same level.
The sundial covers the entire five realms of heaven.
In the next thousand years, Zhang Ruochen repeatedly challenged Hai Shang Youruo, was defeated repeatedly, and was injured repeatedly.
However, after recovering from his injuries, he went to challenge again.
During the battle, Zhang Ruochen's swordsmanship and the way of time improved rapidly, faster than his progress in seclusion. It was these thousand years of hard work that allowed Zhang Ruochen to quickly master the seventh level of time swordsmanship to great perfection.
Although Hai Shang Youruo was still able to defeat Zhang Ruochen easily, his eyes became more and more cautious, without the slightest contempt.
After thousands of years of confrontation, Hai Shang Youruo is no longer as indifferent as he was at first, and he and Zhang Ruochen have more exchanges about the way of time and swordsmanship.
Especially in the field of swordsmanship, Zhang Ruochen has been studying the "Wordless Sword Manual" and the Sword Ancestor Soul Sword for many years, and naturally he has been ahead of her in many places.
On this day, after the battle, Zhang Ruochen and Hai Shang Youruo sat side by side on the steps outside the gate of the Future Shrine Palace, putting Shen Yuan's ancient sword and Zizhu aside.
Zhang Ruochen took out a piece of Yuanhui Holy Medicine and drank it to recover from his injuries. Suddenly, he said, "Have you ever fought with my grandpa?"
"Bloodshed?"
Hai Shangyou, like a young adult, snorted: "He lost to me more than once. During his training in the Temple of Destiny, he lost to me more than ten times. He is also a training freak. The more he fights, the stronger he gets. Now he should be too weak.
Bar!"
She didn't know that her grandfather had already reached the Taixu realm?
Zhang Ruochen asked: "How long has it been since you left the Five Realms Heaven?"
A touch of sadness appeared on Hai Shang Youruo's face, and he said: "One hundred thousand years!"
Although Zhang Ruochen did not really regard Hai Shang Youruo as a little girl, he was still shocked when he heard this.
Not every monk is like Xu Tian, a cultivator who can not leave the Great Tribulation Palace for a hundred thousand years.
What is the difference between staying in the Five Realms Heaven for a hundred thousand years and being a prisoner?
Zhang Ruochen said: "Do you want to see the outside world?"
Hai Shang Youruo's eyes lit up slightly with a look of longing, then he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Xu Tian said, I can't leave the Five Realms Heaven until I reach the Taixu Realm."
Zhang Ruochen thought thoughtfully and said: "Xutian is protecting you because he is afraid that you will be harmed!"
From many past exchanges, Zhang Ruochen clearly sensed that Hai Shang Youruo was not angry with him because of the death of the God of Life. Obviously, she did not believe that it was Saint Monk Xumi and Lord Ten Tribulations Wentian who killed him.
The God of Life.
Before, the reason why she was so indifferent was entirely due to her personality.
But after thousands of years of contact, no matter how indifferent a person is, they will never be as repulsive as they were in the beginning.
Hai Shang Youruo stood up, looked up at the chaotic and empty sky, and said: "Zhang Ruochen, tell me about the outside world! If you have the time."
Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, "What do you want to hear?"
"I heard that the hell world and heaven are at war again. Is the war fierce? Which ancient gods have fallen?" Hai Shang Youruo said.
Zhang Ruochen said: "How can this kind of war sweeping the entire universe not be fierce? The biggest thing happening now is the fall of the Ghost God Lord and the birth of King Feima."
