Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Tuoba Liuming and Yun Mu were both annoyed at Gongsun Jia for helping Su Mo.
However, they were not too frustrated. After all, with the two of their strengths, they were still confident about winning even if Gongsun Jia helped Su Mo.
“Yun Mu, Brother Qin is my good friend. I am just helping him!” Gongsun Jia revealed in a low voice. He greatly admired Su Mo and knew that Su Mo’s talents were nothing an average Favored One could compare to. Even the ten greatest Supreme Beings could not compare to Su Mo back in their day.
As such, Gongsun Jia was determined to be on good terms with Su Mo.
“Brother Gong, thank you!” Su Mo cupped his fists towards Gongsun Jia. He was not Tuoba Liuming’s match anyway but he wouldn’t reject Gongsun Jia’s help
“You don’t know your place!”
Tuoba Liuming scoffed and he strode down slowly. Origin Energy rolled out in waves around his body, surrounding him like a tornado.
Inside the whirlwind, Sword Force surged wildly like a ferocious beast.
As Tuoba Liuming took more steps, the aura from his body became stronger and stronger. The increase in distance between him and the mountain peak allowed his combat strength to increase.
Su Mo and Gongsun Jia’s face were completely serious. Although they had joined forces, they did not dare to relax.
After all, their opponent was Tuoba Liuming who was not only talented, he was also a Rank 4.
“Defeat!”
With a loud battle cry, Tuoba Liuming raised the sword in his hand to make valiant Sword Force shoot towards the sky.
Shoos.h.!.+
The emergence of the sword split the air above him and terrifying Sword Qi forced a long wind dragon to sweep through the sky and engulf everything.
Yun Mu had not attacked yet. As she took note of what was happening, she also kept her eyes focused on Han Sheng.
She was in no hurry and she wanted to see how long Tuoba Liumign would need to defeat Su Mo and Gongsun Jia.
Facing Tuoba Liuming’s attack, Su Mo and Gongsun Jia simultaneously did their counters.
Su Mo unleashed the Chaotic Rotating Sword. He had used all his strength, leaving only the minimum portion to withstand the Sword Mountain.
The ma.s.sive Chaotic Rotating Sword struck the giant wind dragon with shocking force.
Gongsun Jia was slightly weaker than Su Mo, but he was still very strong.
With a wave of his sword, Sword Qi flew across the sky like a rainbow.
Gongsun Jia cultivated Sword Arts that were purely metallic. The sharpness and hardness of his Sword Art was strong.
Furthermore, Gongsun Jia comprehended Time Ultimacy, hence a mysterious force was held in his Sword Qi that increased the speed of his attack.
After the high-speed attack-based Metallic Sword Qi, a golden bolt of lightning flashed through the sky.
Boom!
In an instant, the Sword Qi struck the wind dragon, causing its body to shake violently.
However, the power of the wind dragon far exceeded anyone’s expectations and the strong wind force in the attack sliced the Sword Qi apart.
Kaboom!
As the strength of the wind dragon became weaker, it continued on its path to meet the Chaotic Rotating Sword.
Bam!
With another loud explosion, the wind dragon and Chaotic Rotating Sword exploded apart like a grenade.
Strong shockwaves swept out and the piercing howl of the wind caused eardrums to s.h.i.+ver.
Shoosh shoos.h.!.+
A powerful shockwave swept Su Mo and Gongsun Jia, causing them to retreat back over two hundred feet.
“So strong!”
Su Mo’s face turned dark. He had not expected that even with him combining forces with Gongsun Jia, he would still not be a match for Tuoba Liuming.
“Die!”
Tuoba Liuming was utterly enraged and he yelled again. Sword Radiance flashed continuously and countless streaks of Sword Qi flew through the sky.
The immeasurable Sword Qi was like tiny sharp swords that harbored intense killing intent and they flooded the air in front of Su Mo and Gongsun Jia.
Tuoba Liuming intended to defeat Su Mo and Gongsun Jia in this blow by not giving them any room to breathe.
Bam boom clang!
As the cloud of Swords swam through the sky, the Empty s.p.a.ce exploded continuously.
Under the terrifying wave of attacks, Su Mo and Gongsun Jia both felt a wave of danger upon them.
While Su Mo had the Immortal Chaotic Body and was not worried about his own safety, he was worried for Gongsun Jia.
“Retreat!”
In the blink of an eye, Su Mo ordered Gongsun Jia to retreat backward.
Without retreating, it was very likely that Gongsun jia would be injured by the attack and hence, Su Mo had to retreat.
Shoos.h.!.+ Shoos.h.!.+
Gongsun Jia did not hesitate to retreat upon hearing Su Mo’s orders.
As they retreated, the two continuously unleashed strikes to counter the downpour of Sword Qi upon them.
Bam! Clang clang clang!!
These loud explosions rang in their ears and caused the Sword Mountain to shake violently. As the rolls of shockwaves streamed through the air, destructive auras filled the environment.
Su Mo and Gongsun Jia retreated unstoppably and it was evident that they were weaker. The two of them combined were strong, but since Tuoba Liuming had suffered a lower pressure from the Sword Mountain, the combat strength he could display was strong.
The cultivation rank difference between them could not be overcome and despite how exceptional Su Mo was, he could not take Tuoba Liuming head on.
Boom boom boom!
At the same time, Tuoba Liuming moved down the Sword Mountain as well. With every step he took, he unleashed an attack that was like the release of a downpour of rain.
Su Mo and Gongsun Jia retreated and countered the onslaught of attacks against them.
The speed of them retreating was much higher than when they had gone up the mountain. A short while later, the three of them had almost reached the midpoint of the mountain.
However, although Su Mo and Gongsun Jia retreated, they were not injured.
Tuoba Liuming’s face was as hard as steel. He could see the facts for himself. He could only force Su Mo and Gongsun Jia backward but was not able to injure them.
This intense ongoing battle directed everyone’s attention to it. Qin Yun was too exceptional to be able to stand his ground against Tuoba Liuming.
Although Gongsun Jia helped him, the crowd could still see that Qin Yun was strong enough as well.
“Brother Qin, we should retreat first and take a breather. Once they enter a hundred feet of the Sword Mountain peak, we will move up together!”
Gongsun Jia suggested to Su Mo. Things were not in their favor and struggling desperately would be of no use.
When Tuoba Liuming was within a hundred feet of the peak, it would be hard for him to take action against the two.
“Alright!”
Su Mo sighed to himself. There was no way for the battle to continue anyway as it was a waste of time. He could only wait things out.
However, with him around, he would definitely not allow Tuoba Liuming to reach the mountain peak.
Shoos.h.!.+ Shoos.h.!.+
With that, the two flew quickly to the bottom of the mountain.
In the next instant, they landed at the foot of the mountain.
Tuoba Liuming stopped himself at the sight and stopped his attacks.. Standing where he was, he glared down at Su Mo and Gongsun Jia.
