Feeling the sword intent from Ye Gucheng, the relaxed and casual look on Zhao Lun's face instantly became serious.
Just now he was delighted to see Lie Xin, but now he has regarded Ye Gucheng as a equally matched opponent.
His gaze became sharp, like the edge of a sword.
Then the long sword was raised, and in an instant, the sky seemed to crack, and a white sword energy shot out from the void and slashed down.
"This style is called the Sky Mark Sword!"
Use your own sword power to induce changes in the world, use the sharp edge of your own sword to endow the spiritual energy of the world with sharp edges, and turn the sky into a sword.
Ye Gucheng looked up at the sky, his eyes fixed on the sword edge that seemed to come from the void.
Zhao Lun's swordsmanship is very different from all the swordsmanship he has encountered before. Not only does it have the ultimate edge, it can also turn into its own power with the help of the spiritual essence of heaven and earth.
This is no longer the cultivation of the fourth level of the divine realm, but the cultivation of a higher level.
Heavenly state of mind!
Above the state of tranquility is the state of mind, and above the state of divine will is the state of heaven.
God's heart and God's will, from then on, practitioners officially transcended their own imprisonment and achieved the true unity of heaven and man.
Different from Ji Zhao Jing and Shen Yi Jing, although Tian Xin Jing and Tian Yi Jing respectively represent martial arts cultivation and artistic conception cultivation, they are actually the same.
The so-called heavenly state of mind is just a term used by warriors for this level.
The so-called heavenly realm is what Confucianism cultivators call this level.
Confucianism cultivators do not have martial arts cultivation, but only artistic conception, so they call it the artistic conception of heaven.
In fact, whether it is Heaven's heart or Heaven's will, the meaning is the same, that is, my heart is Heaven's heart.
And Zhao Lun can use such moves, it is obvious that he has touched the threshold of Tian's state of mind.
Maybe he is still far away from the heavenly state of mind, but he already has the ability to comprehend the spiritual essence of heaven and earth.
This point alone cannot be compared to Ye Gucheng.
A sword came through the air, and Ye Gucheng suddenly leaped forward, his pale clothes fluttering, and his pale sword edge exploded.
Click!
The two swords collided again, and the shattered sword intent and sword energy flew in all directions, drawing pale lines on the sky.
At the moment of collision, Ye Gucheng's figure couldn't help but fly back more than ten feet.
Ye Gucheng did not completely block Zhao Lun's sword.
Although he was not injured, flying back more than ten feet meant that his sword was weaker than Zhao Lun's.
Stabilizing his body, Ye Gucheng's face showed an unprecedented solemn look.
Sure enough, one cannot underestimate the people of the world!
"Your swordsmanship is very good, but it's a pity that it's only three points worse than the old man!" Zhao Lun did not hide the admiration in his eyes.
In Zhao Lun's opinion, Ye Gucheng's swordsmanship is the purest and most extreme swordsmanship he has ever seen.
Ye Gucheng is worse than him, not because Ye Gucheng's swordsmanship is not as good as his, but because he has practiced for hundreds of years more than Ye Gucheng.
Ye Gucheng took a deep breath and held up a sword flower in his hand.
"I have a sword!"
"Then take it out and let me see it!" Zhao Lun looked forward to it.
"But I don't want to use it!" Ye Gucheng said.
"Why?" Zhao Lun was surprised.
"Because it's not perfect yet!"
"The two swords you just wielded weren't perfect either."
Ye Gucheng shook his head slightly, "That's different!"
Zhao Lun stared at him, as if he didn't understand what he meant by the difference.
Since you have used two imperfect sword moves before, why are you not willing to use another imperfect sword move now?
He would not understand Ye Gucheng's pursuit of perfection.
"If you don't use it now, you may never have the chance to use it again in the future!" Zhao Lun said.
Ye Gucheng fell silent.
He looked at the sword in his hand, his eyes flashing.
After a long time, he said: "Then it depends on whether you can force me to break my belief!"
When Zhao Lun heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter.
“Interesting, interesting!”
"Hahaha~~"
"Then I won't be polite!"
The next moment.
The sword in his hand flew out again. This time, Zhao Lun did not hold back, but attacked with one sword after another, forcing Ye Gucheng to fly back.
This should be the most difficult battle Ye Gucheng has faced since he came to this world.
Although his cultivation level was lower in the past, the enemies he faced basically did not surpass him, or in other words, they did not surpass him by much.
And now he was facing Zhao Lun, who was far superior to him in terms of cultivation, artistic conception, and combat experience.
Facing such a powerful opponent, Ye Gucheng retreated in consecutive battles, somewhat dwarfing him.
However, Zhao Lun couldn't defeat him in a short time.
The battle between the two became more and more intense. Not only them, but also the battles of other people around them became intense.
On the warship, Mao Jiang looked at the figures that kept passing through the sky, his expression becoming more and more solemn.
Ye Gucheng, Xiongba, Cheng Mo, Xie Lingyun, Wuhua, Huang Yaoshi, Luo Qingyi, etc. Everyone seemed to have encountered difficult opponents, and for a while they were unable to gain an advantage at all.
On the sea, there are still dozens, nearly a hundred innate warriors fighting.
Mao Jiang saw many familiar people falling into the sea, and also saw many enemies falling into the sea.
Suddenly, the pupils in his eyes shrank suddenly.
I saw three strange-looking warships coming from the south at extremely fast speeds, surrounded by more than a dozen speedboats.
"That's right!"
Mao Jiang guessed in his mind: "gun ship!"
He has never seen the gunboats of the Giant Spirit Dynasty, but he has received battle reports about the gunboats encountered by the Nanhai Navy before.
The artillery boat was definitely a killer weapon on the battlefield. In just a few breaths, the entire Feiyun Camp army was almost wiped out.
Seeing the gunboat now, Mao Jiang couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Deploy the giant scorpion!"
He quickly ordered.
"Here!" Ye Xiangzhen, who was next to him, also saw the gunboat and responded quickly.
Soon, dozens of machine giant scorpions were thrown into the water from several warships.
Just when the giant scorpion entered the water, a loud explosion came from the south.
I saw a warship at the end of it instantly falling apart, with countless fragments shooting out in all directions.
"How far!" Mao Jiang asked anxiously.
"About three hundred and thirty feet!" replied a soldier in charge of the observation.
Three hundred and thirty feet!
The range of Dali's crossbow is about 800 meters, but in order to achieve maximum power, it is best to shorten the distance to about 600 meters, that is, within 200 feet.
Three hundred and thirty feet is far beyond the range of the Dalizuo crossbow, which means that they can only be beaten passively.
At this time, Mao Jiang finally understood why Liu Zhen was trying so hard to destroy Feiyun Camp and engage in a battle with the opponent.
boom!
There was another roar and explosion, and another warship fell apart.
Mao Jiang's face instantly became extremely ugly.
"Damn it!"
He couldn't help but curse secretly.
The roars continued one after another, and the warships behind were smashed one after another.
In just half a quarter of an hour, more than ten warships were blown to pieces.
This is still in the context of pursuit and escape, and the gun ship cannot fire at full power.
"Sir, we can't go on like this!"
Ye Xiangzhen said anxiously.
If this continues, their losses will only increase. The key is that they are still unable to make any counterattack.
Perhaps before they can rendezvous with the Donghai Navy, their losses will be more than half.
Such a result is absolutely unacceptable to them.
They would rather fight to the death with the enemy than be blown apart bit by bit by the enemy while escaping.
"Where's the giant scorpion?" Mao Jiang asked.
"They need time!" Ye Xiangzhen said.
The speed of the giant scorpion on the seabed is not very fast, and it is much slower than Dali's large fortune ship.
If the gun ship had stayed in place, the machine scorpion could easily penetrate the bottom of the ship, but now that the gun ship was sailing, the machine scorpion had little chance of success.
Boom boom boom~~
The roar was endless, and the explosions continued one after another.
The hero in the sky also discovered the gunboat below, but unfortunately his opponent Zhang Ye didn't give him a chance to escape. The same went for everyone else.
Just when Mao Jiang was hesitating whether to stop fighting to the death, a soldier broke through and rushed over.
"Report!"
"General, a message has been sent from the military aircraft. It will take half an hour for reinforcements to arrive!"
"Half an hour!"
Mao Jiang was startled.
Before, they expected that the Donghai Navy would need another two hours, but now less than half an hour has passed. How could the Donghai Navy only need half an hour?
Ye Xiangzhen looked surprised.
Half an hour!
If they go to war with the enemy, perhaps support from the Donghai Navy will arrive just as the battle gets heated.
"General, our opportunity has come!" Ye Xiangzhen said.
Mao Jiang's eyes flashed coldly.
Yes, their chance has come.
"Send the order, the front army disperses and surrounds, the rear army continues to retreat!"
At this time, Mao Jiang immediately gave the order without any further hesitation.
As his order was conveyed to each battalion, the Beihai Navy, which had been gathered together, immediately began to disperse and sail.
The warship at the front turned in an arc on the vast sea and headed south.
This change was quickly discovered by Zhang Jihai.
"Okay, they finally couldn't bear it anymore!" Zhang Jihai said happily.
His purpose was to keep the Beihai Navy, and when he saw that the Beihai Navy turned around and wanted to fight them in a decisive battle, he was naturally overjoyed.
But after he was overjoyed, he asked cautiously: "Have you found any reinforcements from the other side?"
"not yet!"
After receiving the answer, Zhang Jihai relaxed a lot.
…
As the sun sets in the west, the sky is still burning with an orange-red sunset glow, and the sea is dyed golden by this glow.
On the sparkling golden sea, a large ship over a hundred feet was sailing at a speed that exceeded normal speed.
Sailboat!
Qin Wei's ship is Dali's only wind-controlling warship.
At this time, Qin Wei was standing on the top floor of the ship's pavilion, looking at the place where the sky and the sea meet in the west.
When he learned that the West Route Army of the Juling Dynasty had caught up with the Beihai Navy, Qin Wei immediately ordered the Yufeng Ship to break away from the East Sea Navy and move forward at full speed.
That's right, the message Mao Jiang received stating that the reinforcements arrived in half an hour refers to the sailboat Qin Wei was riding.
This is a wind-control ship. When it speeds up, it will consume one spirit stone in an hour. When it sails at full speed, it will consume one spirit stone in a quarter of an hour.
In this situation, Qin Wei would naturally not be reluctant to part with the spirit stone.
The power of the magic circle is indeed magical. Even if it is traveling against the wind at a large angle, the sailboat can still reach a speed of forty kilometers an hour.
This speed is already very fast. You must know that even if the large Fuzhou ship is traveling with the wind, it cannot reach this speed.
On the contrary, the clipper can achieve this speed with the help of human power and a favorable wind.
But the clipper ship is only about ten feet tall, while the sailboat is over a hundred feet tall.
Qin Wei stood on the pavilion and watched the sunset, motionless and without any fluctuations in his expression.
Until there was only a faint halo left in the setting sun, a bright light suddenly burst out in his eyes.
"arrive!"
Where the sky and the sea meet, a little black shadow is slowly appearing.
Although they didn't know which side's warship it was, they were sure that the battlefield they were heading to was where it was.
As far as the eye can see, it means that the distance is not far away.
"Report, enemy patrol ship found!"
"Ignore them and move forward at full speed!" Qin Wei said coldly.
