As soon as the two sides attacked, Chu Wenxian knew that his prediction was right. This battle could only end with the defeat of one side. There was no possibility of a truce midway. Xiao Minglie had become famous forty years ago, almost reaching the level of a grandmaster. His cultivation was not something that he could compare to. In terms of moves and skills, he might become a wandering ghost without a body in less than ten moves. However, Chu Wenxian would rather die in battle than beg for mercy from such a person.
In an instant, his state of mind returned to the calmness he had on Wudang Mountain. He no longer cared about gains and losses, nor about victory or defeat. The only thing he had to pay attention to was the tip of the sword. The situation left him no room to hold back.
Shen Qi sensed the change in Chu Wenxian's state of mind and murmured,""This is clearly a Wudang Heart Technique, but it's different. Could it be that he already has his own comprehension? This is impossible!" If Chu Wenxian didn't have his own enlightenment, how could he be Xiao Minglie's respected opponent? Shen Qi did not know. Even Wang Zhi did not know.
Xiao Minglie's soft whip was thirty to forty feet long. Judging from its attack range, he had the upper hand. With a shake of his arm, the whip was like a venomous snake that had just come out of its hole, searching for its target. In an instant, it had appeared in front of Chu Wenxian and spun around a few times. The tip of the whip was constantly moving, and he had no idea where it was going to attack.
Chu Wenxian retreated, but this wasn't an ordinary retreat. There was a subtle and profound principle behind it, and it was a test of his martial arts.
First, he had to avoid Xiao Minglie's soft whip. This attack seemed ordinary, but in fact, it was the most fatal move at this moment. He couldn't block it, nor could he not block it. If the two of them were fighting, he would have been able to break it with a flick of his sword. However, Xiao Minglie had disappeared from his sight the moment the black whip appeared. This meant that he had to face Xiao Minglie's soft whip and also prevent Xiao Minglie's fatal attack. After witnessing Ji Mie's cold and lethal vital energy, he believed that Xiao Minglie would be even more powerful when he used it. When he took Xiao Minglie's whip attack head-on, it would be the moment of his death. There was no other possibility.
The Lightness Skill of Cloud Ladder was used by Chu Wenxian as if he was stepping on a ladder. In a split second, the sword in his hand touched the tip of the whip. Then, he didn't retreat but advanced instead, as if he had bumped into the soft whip. Following that, the sword slashed backward. An extremely strange feeling surged from the tip of the sword and completely enveloped him. Not only did it weaken the sensitivity of his senses, but it also made him feel uncomfortable.
Of course, this was purely a problem with his personal feelings. Xiao Minglie had absolutely no ability to change Chu Wenxian's physiological structure. All he could do was to use his strange zhenqi to interfere with Chu Wenxian's feelings. Just as the zhenqi was coming from behind, Chu Wenxian leaned to the right. Xiao Minglie happened to appear on his right. It was as if he had completely controlled Chu Wenxian's dodging position in his mind, allowing him to easily grasp the target of Chu Wenxian's attack.
Clang!
It was unknown what the black whip was made of, but when it clashed with Chu Wenxian's sword, it produced a clear sound that vibrated his eardrums. This was the first clash between their weapons. Chu Wenxian felt as if he had been summoned back from a dream. His mind was crystal clear, and he had grasped Xiao Minglie's power. However, it was different from before. Xiao Minglie no longer gave Chu Wenxian the uncomfortable feeling of being unpredictable. Instead, he had become real.
"Brother Chu's sword technique is truly exquisite. This Chu has never seen it before!”The black shadow dispersed, and Xiao Minglie appeared on Chu Wenxian's left. His movement technique was no weaker than Wudang's Cloud Ladder."Back then, the Sect Leader of the Qingcheng Sect, Chen Yifei, had already used the Pine Wind Sword Technique without any trace of worldly splendor. Brother Chu, are you interested in knowing how he was defeated?”
"The past is over. Brother Xiao, why do you need to bring up what happened back then?”Chu Wenxian looked at the sun that was setting in the distance, illuminating the vast Yuan Capital with golden light." Shen Qi loved to watch the sunset on Mount Wudang. The sunset in Dadu had already become the exclusive beauty of the Mongolians. Could it be that this great river and mountain had to be reduced to scorched earth? If his guess was correct, when the sun extinguished the last wisp of smoke, if he was still in Tingfeng Tower, then he would forever be left in Yuan Dadu, just like Qingcheng Sect Leader Chen Yifei.
Xiao Minglie didn't care at all. He smiled faintly and said,""Forty years ago, I was probably younger than Brother Chu. The Qingcheng Sect Leader, Chen Yifei, and the others were already top-notch experts in the world, but he lost to me and died with hatred!”
Even though Shen Qi did not know why he was bringing up what happened forty years ago, she was still curious when she heard him mention the past. There were some Jianghu people beside him who had the same thoughts as him. When he continued listening, one of them flew up and shouted,"What a muddle-headed dog. I really found you today.”Under the setting sun, the long sword in his hand danced into a ball of golden light as he pounced towards Xiao Minglie. However, his lightness skill was far from reaching the level of climbing the Wind Listening Tower in one step. He tapped the roof with his foot and pounced towards Xiao Minglie again.
"Who is that person?" Shen Qi asked in surprise.”
"Bai Muxue, the Sect Leader of the Qingcheng Sect, should be Chen Yifei's cross-generation disciple.”
Shen Qi understood and looked at that person. He admired Bai Mu Xue's courage. After all, there were many people shouting just now, but few people really wanted to take revenge on Xiao Minglie. He was betting on whether the other party would kill him.
Chu Wenxian had a bad premonition. He dashed towards Bai Mu Xue and shouted,""Get down!"
Xiao Minglie laughed and his aura disappeared."Because his state of mind is concerned, this sword art is naturally in a mess.”The black shadow turned into several circles and shot towards the two of them at lightning speed. Then, the tip of the whip turned around and struck Chu Wenxian's head. After a few flashes of lightning and thunder, the whip was already less than three feet above Chu Wenxian's head by the time everyone reacted.
Shen Qi's heart shook. He did not care about what others thought and jumped up and shouted,""Senior Brother Chu!" In a moment of desperation, his lightness skills had improved quite a bit, and he just happened to jump onto the eaves of the first floor of the Wind Listening Tower. The broken sword in his hand turned into a ray of sword light and flew away, hoping to slow Xiao Minglie down.
When the people of Jianghu saw Shen Qi call Chu Wenxian his senior brother, they were stunned at first. Then, someone snorted,""That's Wang Qi from Wenfan Manor. We were deceived by him. Hurry up and tell us where the Dragon Slaying Saber is!”Following that, a few people flew up to the eaves of the Wind Listening Tower, but their target was Shen Qi.
Wang Zhi's eyes flashed, and then everyone's vision blurred. A huge Qing Dao appeared in Wang Zhi's hand, and he shouted in a deep voice,"Get down!" It was already in front of Shen Qi, but the blade was aimed at the pugilistic world people who pounced on him.
Chu Wenxian's sword struck Bai Mu Xue's body. The sword drew out more than ten circles of different sizes, forming layers and layers of frost qi. Borrowing the momentum of Bai Mu Xue's fall, he pushed the Cloud Ladder to its limit and flew out of Xiao Minglie's whip. It was several feet higher than the roof of the Wind Listening Tower.
Xiao Minglie's soft whip collided with the first circle of sword Qi and was immediately blocked. Ripples appeared, which were strange and beautiful. With a long whistle, the tip of the whip struck out and hit the broken sword that Shen Qi shot out. The sword immediately counterattacked Shen Qi even more violently than before. Before Shen Qi could react, the sword was already in front of him.
Wang Zhiqing waved his saber and forced the martial artists down from Tingfeng Tower. He swung his saber and collided with Xiao Minglie's broken sword. With a clear sound, he pulled Shen Qi down from the roof. With a loud bang, the broken sword turned into a meteor and smashed a huge hole in the roof of the Wind Listening Tower.
Chu Wenxian knew it was time. He turned his sword against the light of the setting sun. The sound of a sword whistling could be heard. The frost true energy shot out from the tip of the sword, connecting more than ten layers of frost true energy. It collided with Xiao Minglie's whip, but it didn't seem to be at a disadvantage.
Xiao Minglie was surprised by both Wang Zhi's unfathomable abilities and Chu Wenxian's marvelous sword technique.""You really have some skills!" With a whip, he asked Wang Zhi calmly,"Who are you?"
The blade in Wang Zhi's hand disappeared. He chuckled and said,"Your opponent is Chu Wenxian. I'm afraid you might not be able to defeat Chu Wenxian and me if we join forces, right?”His words were very sharp, and it was exactly what Xiao Minglie was worried about.
Xiao Minglie was defeated by him, but he was helpless. He knew that what the other party said was true, so he snorted heavily. "Wait for me to take care of this brat, then I'll come and experience your brilliant moves!"”Before this, he had been calling Chu Wenxian Brother Chu, but in his anger, he had become a brat.
Chu Wenxian smiled faintly but didn't say anything.
Xiao Minglie pondered for a while and closed his eyes."Brother Chu, did you just use the Wudang sword technique? Presumably, there was no sword technique above Wudang that could congeal sword qi!”
Chu Wenxian pointed his long sword and floated to a spot three feet away from Xiao Minglie. He smiled and said,""Brother Xiao, please give me some pointers on the Wudang Sect's Celestial Seeking Sword Technique!”
