Chapter 1497 The Gap (2)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Energy sabers slashed at Hua Yin one after another. He had no choice but to withdraw his energy sabers and leaped back.
Yu Zhenghai said, “This is the moment I’ve been waiting for. Great Dark Heaven Memorial!”
Yu Zhenghai did not stop. He pushed his hand out and unleashed the Dark Heaven Starlight.
Energy sabers spun in the air.
Hua Yin frowned; he could sense the powerful force from the energy sabers. He muttered, “He’s so much stronger than before…”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Hua Yin kept releasing energy sabers to resist Yu Zhenghai’s attacks.
At this time, Yu Zhenghai swooped down and unleashed a huge energy saber. “You’re right. Saber technique, or to be precise, energy sabers, isn’t about quant.i.ty, but quality.”
“This…”
“Every energy saber of mine is filled with force regardless of their number.”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
At this time, Hua Yin could sense that the force of Yu Zhenghai’s energy sabers had reached an unimaginable level. He could only continue to neutralize them without having a chance to breathe. As he fought back, he
retreated.
Yu Zhenghai dove from the sky and unleashed a huge energy saber again.
Bang!
Hua Yin activated his protective energy and unleashed an energy saber of his own to meet the incoming attack.
Alas, Yu Zhenghai’s energy saber was unstoppable. It split Hua Yin’s energy saber and breached Hua Yin’s barrier before it came to a stop above Hua Yin’s shoulder, next to Hua Yin’s face.
At this moment, all the energy sabers vanished. Only Yu Zhenghai’s energy saber hovered next to Hua Yin’s face.
Hua Yin’s hands trembled violently. A red b.l.o.o.d.y line appeared on his palm.
The Autumn Dew Mountain’s training hall was abnormally quiet.
The disciples of the Autumn Dew Mountain looked at their Eldest Senior Brother in shock and disbelief. They found it hard to believe that their Eldest Senior Brother had lost.
Even Hua Yin himself found it hard to believe that he had lost so cleanly. He did not lose because of Yu Zhenghai’s exquisite saber techniques or whatever; he lost to Yu Zhenghai’s absolute strength. From the beginning
to the end, Yu Zhenghai’s attacks and rhythm had been overbearing. Although he found it hard to accept, he still said, “I lost.”
Yu Zhenghai said, “To be honest, I’m not very good at control. My Second Senior Brother is far better than me in this aspect. If you had fought with him, you’d have no chance of winning at all. However, if it’s a real
battle, I’m afraid you won’t be able to withstand three moves from me.”
Hua Yin: “…”
‘It’s fine that you won. Is there a need to mock me?’
Hua Yin felt rather uncomfortable. He really had nothing to say. The winner was the king, and the loser would find an excuse to justify himself.
On the contrary, Yu Zhenghai felt rather happy.
“Thank you for the sparring session,” Hua Yin said before he retreated to the side. However, his expression did not look too good.
After Yu Zhenghai’s energy saber vanished, he waved his hand, and the Jasper Saber flew back into his hand.
At this moment, Yu Shangrong looked at Hua Yin and said, “There’s no need to be upset. Although my Eldest Senior Brother has always been blunt with his words, his words are always fair.”
Yu Shangrong’s movements were elegant and agile as he flew out and landed in the arena. Then, he used his right hand to draw the Longevity Sword out from its sheath on his back. He looked at Liang Yufeng, the
second disciple of the Autumn Dew Mountain, and said, “I hope you’ll be able to satisfy my sword.”
Liang Yufeng leaped into the arena and said, “Please advise me.”
As soon as Liang Yufeng’s voice fell, Yu Shangrong moved as quick as lightning. His figure split into three.
Liang Yufeng’s vision turned blurry for a moment. He smiled and said, “This kind of sword technique can’t do anything to me.”
Then, Liang Yufeng flew out to meet Yu Shangrong.
Their swords clashed.
Yu Shangrong’s sword speed was at its peak. He attacked like a violent storm, slas.h.i.+ng at Liang Yufeng.
While Liang Yufeng countered the attacks and looked for an opportunity to attack, he heard a buzzing noise. ‘Avatar?’
Liang Yufeng felt a chill at his back. When he spun around, he saw an energy sword coming at him.
“What?” Liang Yufeng shot higher up into the sky. However, when he spun around, he did not see the avatar.
At the side.
The disciples of the Autumn Dew Mountain who were watching the battle rubbed their eyes.
“Is that his avatar?”
“I think so. It appeared only for a moment.”
“Is it an illusion?”
“No. It’s a Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar! How could someone with a Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar spar with Second Senior Brother?”
It was so fast that no one saw it clearly.
Everyone thought Yu Shangrong would fly up and fight Liang Yufeng. Contrary to their expectations, he did not move at all.
Back in the arena.
Liang Yufeng looked down and said with a frown, “Very well. Stay there then.”
“You speak too carelessly.”
At this moment, golden energy swords appeared in the sky.
At the same time, energy swords revolved around Liang Yufeng.
“What terrifying control. He can control them from so far away?”
n their opinion, it was impossible to control energy swords from so far away, and yet, Yu Shangrong was able to control them from so far away. Based on this alone, it seemed like Yu Shangrong had the upper hand.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Energy swords attacked Liang Yufeng continuously.
Liang Yufeng was taken aback. He waved his sword to block the attacks. Then, he said, “I don’t believe I can’t make you come up here.”
Following that, Liang Yufeng flew 1,000 meters up in the sky. Ordinary people would find it difficult to see him at that height. However, they would surely be able to see the energy swords that were chasing after him.
“How’s this possible?!”
Everyone was shocked as they looked at Yu Shangrong standing at the same spot and looking at the sky with a focused gaze.
If the duo fought like this, no matter how they looked at it, Yu Shangrong was in an undefeatable position.
Liang Yufeng refused to accept this before raising his alt.i.tude again. “Again!”
At this time, Chen Fu, who had been watching the battle silently, said, “This child’s way of controlling the sword is extraordinary. It’s truly unique.”
“This disciple of mine has long reached the peak of the sword path. Although this way of controlling the sword looks awkward, it’s his own creation,” Lu Zhou said.
“His own creation?” Chen Fu was shocked.
The others from Autumn Dew Mountain were even more shocked.
At this time, Yu Zhenghai shook his head and said, “I also have a saber technique I created, but I was too lazy to use it earlier.”
Everyone from both the Evil Sky Pavilion and the Autumn Dew Mountain: “…”
‘What a pity! Second Junior Brother usually doesn’t use this move, but today, he decided to change his style?’ Yu Zhenghai felt somewhat regretful that he did not use his original creation earlier. He only wanted to win
cleanly. Now, all the limelight was stolen.
The number of energy swords continued to increase in the sky.
No matter how high Liang Yufeng flew, Yu Shangrong’s energy swords would still be able to follow him.
Energy swords gradually stacked up and formed a long dragon that flew 10,000 meters up in the sky.
The sword control technique thoroughly shocked everyone.
Liang Yufeng thought about descending, but when he recalled the chill he felt at his back earlier, he was slightly worried. It seemed like he would lose even more miserably if they fought at close range. Finally, he waved
his sword with all his might, trying to destroy the energy swords. Then, a 10,000-feet-long energy sword appeared and spun in the air, blocking the energy swords.
However, Yu Shangrong’s energy swords perfectly dodged Liang Yufeng’s counterattack. Moreover, they moved at the same speed and frequency as Liang Yufeng.
“I don’t believe this!” Liang Yufeng flew horizontally toward the distant mountain peak. In just a moment, he flew out of Autumn Dew Mountain.
“Second Senior Brother!” the disciples of the Autumn Dew Mountain cried out.
Liang Yufeng was so eager to win that he no longer cared about anything else. In just a moment, he had flown half a mile away.
Yu Shangrong’s energy swords followed closely behind like a dragon.
As the distance grew, Yu Shangrong closed his eyes. He stood in the arena as he joined his palms together with a focused expression.
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
At this moment, the speed of Yu Shangrong’s energy swords increased by several times.
After flying 10 miles out, Liang Yufeng turned around. His eyes widened when he saw the energy swords behind him. He flew another 50 miles before he turned back again. He said through gritted teeth, “What’s his
limit?”
After flying 100 miles away, Liang Yufeng’s eyelids began to twitch violently. His expression was unsightly as well. If he was honest with himself, he was not sure he would win even if he continued to fly and the energy
swords disappeared. However, if the energy swords did not disappear, then he would lose even more miserably. At this moment, it felt like he was riding on the back of the tiger and could not dismount.
It was also at this time that Chen Fu said, “Come back.”
Liang Yufeng replied through Voice Transmission, “Master?”
“This child’s control can reach up to 1,000 miles. Do you plan to continue?” Chen Fu asked.
“A… A thousand miles?!” Liang Yufeng exclaimed. That was ten times the distance he had flown so far.
When Chen Fu sensed that Liang Yufeng had not moved, he said bitterly, “Are you going to continue embarra.s.sing yourself?”
At this time, all energy swords chasing after Liang Yufeng shot up into the sky. One turned into two; two turned into four… There were countless energies swords. They swooped down and circled the distant mountain
peak before they shot in and out of the trees in the forest, heading back to Autumn Dew Mountain.
Liang Yufeng: “…”
Even if Liang Yufeng did not believe Yu Shangrong’s limit was 1,000 miles, this demonstration alone was enough to show Yu Shangrong’s exquisite and perfect control. This could be seen how not even one tree or leaf
was damaged despite the number of energy swords. Moreover, it also showed he had a lot of energy left.
“This gap is… too big!”
In the end, Liang Yufeng could only bow and say, “Yes.”
