Chongxu couldn't help but sharpen his gaze, feeling quite astonished.
"Sect Leader Yue is indeed a man of great hidden talent."
Fang Zheng couldn't help but say.
"I've heard that when the Purple Cloud Divine Skill is first unleashed, it's faint, but later it becomes continuous and eventually covers the sky. The person who uses the skill will also have their face covered in purple clouds. But when Sect Leader Yue makes such a big move, there's no purple cloud on his face. Could it be that Sect Leader Yue isn't using the Purple Cloud Divine Skill?"
Kunlun Sect Leader Zhenshanzi frowned.
"Yes, Sect Leader Yue used the Purple Cloud Divine Skill."
Fang Zheng, however, affirmed.
Although he was old, his eyesight was still good. He could see that although Yue Buqun's face was fair, there was still a trace of purple aura swirling on his face.
Upon hearing Fang Zheng's words, Zhen Shanzi observed carefully again and indeed found a trace of purple aura swirling on Yue Buqun's face, though it was not obvious and would not be noticed if one did not look closely.
"Whenever the Purple Cloud Divine Skill is activated, it will be reflected on the face of the person activating it. However, the purple aura of Sect Leader Yue is very weak. Why is that? Could it be that Sect Leader Yue has already mastered the Purple Cloud Divine Skill to the point of perfection and reached the realm of returning to simplicity?"
Chongxu couldn't help but ask.
Fang Zheng shook his head.
He doesn't know either.
Although they didn't know why Yue Buqun's current technique differed from the Zixia Divine Skill, everyone was still amazed by Yue Buqun's profound internal strength.
Especially Zuo Lengchan.
At this moment, Zuo Lengchan frowned, his gaze fixed on Yue Buqun and Ren Woxing in the arena, but mostly on Yue Buqun.
After Lu Bai and the others returned from Mount Hua, they brought him details of how Yue Buqun defeated Feng Buping. Zuo Lengchan had already overestimated Yue Buqun enough, but now he realized that he had underestimated Yue Buqun's strength.
The onlookers had various thoughts about this battle between top experts, while the two in the arena continued their contest.
Ren Woxing looked coldly at Yue Buqun, their eyes meeting.
Ren Woxing's face remained expressionless, but he was inwardly startled.
No wonder the other party was so confident; their inner strength was so profound.
There was no warmth in Yue Buqun's eyes either.
call out!
After exchanging internal energy with Yue Buqun, Ren Woxing realized he hadn't gained the upper hand, so he stopped and attacked Yue Buqun.
Yue Buqun drew his sword and stepped forward.
Ren Woxing moved with incredible speed, appearing in front of Yue Buqun in a flash. He raised his hand and struck Yue Buqun's face with a palm strike as fast as lightning.
call!
The wind howled.
Yue Buqun remained expressionless, leaned back, and simultaneously raised his sword to deliver a thrusting stroke resembling the phoenix's arrival, aiming for Ren Woxing's throat.
Ren Woxing's expression was cold. After his first attack failed, he withdrew and immediately launched a new offensive.
Ren Woxing's attacks were extremely fierce, unleashing gusts of palm wind.
Yue Buqun moved with graceful ease, as if strolling leisurely in a garden, his steps ethereal. No matter how fierce Ren Woxing's attacks were, not a single one landed on Yue Buqun.
"Hey Yue, if you can't beat them, just admit defeat. Don't hide here and be afraid to fight the sect leader, or you'll make a fool of yourself."
At this moment, some members of the Sun Moon Sect who were watching shouted loudly.
Which dog is barking?
Linghu Chong immediately retorted with a curse.
The members of the Sun Moon Sect were furious upon hearing this and began hurling insults at Linghu Chong.
Bang!Bang!Bang!
With each move Ren Woxing made, a loud explosion followed.
Ren Woxing's moves appeared fierce, but they did not harm Yue Buqun in the slightest.
"Sect Leader Yue's movement technique is quite good."
Ren Woxing sneered.
Yue Buqun knew that Ren Woxing was mocking him, but he still smiled calmly and was not affected by the other party's words.
The opponent possessed the Star Absorbing Technique, which could absorb the enemy's internal energy. Although Yue Buqun had already cultivated the Innate Skill to the fourth level, he was still very cautious. Moreover, Ren Woxing was no ordinary character, and Yue Buqun would not be arrogant.
The two fought faster and faster, until they were no longer visible to onlookers, who could only see afterimages alternating in the arena.
Ren Woxing's palm strike missed again. Perhaps due to his inability to gain the upper hand after a long attack, Ren Woxing became impatient and his move was too forceful, leaving a small opening under his armpit.
Zheng!
The sword tip tinkled, and Yue Buqun flicked his wrist, raising the sword to stab Ren Woxing under the armpit.
Chapter 383: Fierce Battle
A cold light suddenly appeared.
Yue Buqun's sword strike was swift and urgent, carrying a chilling aura; it was just a moment away from piercing Ren Woxing.
At that moment, Ren Woxing had too much space to react and it was too late to retaliate.
Is the battle about to be decided?
Fang Zheng, Chongxu, and the others watched the battle intently.
At that moment, Ren Woxing revealed a cold smile. The next second, his figure blurred, as if he had been prepared in advance, and he dodged the fatal move.
"It's a trap!"
Chongxu couldn't help but exclaim softly.
"Sect Leader Yue is in danger."
Zhen Shanzi, the leader of the Kunlun Sect, frowned.
After dodging the sword, Ren Woxing did not stop. Instead, he pressed forward and closed the distance with Yue Buqun.
With a fierce gust of wind, Ren Woxing struck Yue Buqun's chest with a palm strike.
Ren Woxing's attack was swift and ruthless, as if he had planned it for a long time.
At this critical moment, Yue Buqun remained calm and did not panic. He took a step back and at the same time turned his wrist, changing his attack from a thrust to a slash.
"Humph!"
Ren Woxing snorted coldly, but his figure retreated, and he did not continue to pursue.
He deliberately created a weakness, but he didn't expect the other party to react so quickly.
The two were once again locked in a protracted battle.
"Keep it up, Master!"
The disciples of Mount Hua silently cheered for Yue Buqun.
"Junior brother, who do you think will win, Master or that demon?"
Linghu Chong appeared beside Jiang Ning without anyone noticing and asked.
Jiang Ning had been watching the battle closely, and when he heard Linghu Chong speak, he didn't even turn his head.
"Naturally, it's my master."
Jiang Ning and Yue Buqun practiced the same innate skill and were very familiar with it. Jiang Ning knew that Yue Buqun was not using his full strength at the moment.
Zheng!
Yue Buqun gripped his sword with one hand and slashed down, the blade gleaming coldly.
Ren Woxing glanced at it and dodged without thinking. However, Yue Buqun twisted his wrist, and the long sword spun in his palm. He slashed horizontally, and Ren Woxing frowned slightly. He leaped and dodged the sword again, but the long sword followed him like a shadow.
Yue Buqun gripped his sword and thrust it upwards, aiming straight for Ren Woxing's back.
"Deadly chain of three immortal swords!"
Feng Buping and Ning Zhongze were shocked. As members of the Huashan Sect, they immediately recognized that Yue Buqun was now using the Sword Sect's ultimate move, the Deadly Three Immortal Swords.
Jiang Ning also knew this move and used it frequently, but unlike Yue Buqun, Jiang Ning always leaped up and stabbed down from above to open the opponent's back when using the last sword strike, while Yue Buqun did it from below.
The deadly triple sword strike was extremely ruthless, and Ren Woxing was caught off guard and had no time to react. In a flash, he forcefully used his internal energy to escape the area.
thump.
After landing, Ren Woxing couldn't help but take a step back, his chest heaving slightly.
Before he could make his next move, Yue Buqun had already leaped forward, thrusting his longsword repeatedly.
Ren Woxing's face was gloomy. In the face of Yue Buqun's offensive, he retreated and kept blocking.
At this moment, he felt a slight pain in his dantian.
He had rushed his internal energy too quickly and hadn't managed to get his breath back up. Now, Yue Buqun was pressing him relentlessly, giving him no chance to catch his breath. Ren Woxing could only forcefully suppress his anger and struggle to resist.
The battle on the field changed so quickly that the onlookers were caught off guard. Only top experts like Fang Zheng could see the reason, while some martial arts practitioners with low skill levels couldn't understand how the two who were evenly matched just a moment ago were now about to determine a winner.
"Just now, Master Ren used his internal energy too hastily, which caused his internal energy to become stagnant. Now, Sect Leader Yue is pressing him relentlessly, and Master Ren is showing signs of defeat."
Fang Zheng said.
In a battle between masters, victory or defeat often hinges on a single moment. Ren Woxing made a careless move and Yue Buqun seized the opportunity to relentlessly pursue him. Given the current situation, defeat is only a matter of time, and he may even lose his life on Mount Song.
"Master is about to win!"
Linghu Chong's eyes lit up.
It's clear to anyone with eyes that Yue Buqun has gained the upper hand, while Ren Woxing is being suppressed and is clearly in a losing position.
"This is bad. When the leader was using his internal energy to dodge Yue Buqun's sword, he didn't catch his breath. Yue Buqun is relentlessly attacking. The leader can't hold on for much longer."
Despite the pain of losing an arm, Xiang Wentian carefully observed the battle between the two. Now, seeing the situation on the field suddenly change, he couldn't help but frown.
Ren Yingying was even more anxious at this moment. She had just rescued Ren Woxing from the West Lake prison not long ago. If he died in Songshan, all her efforts over the years would be in vain.
Ren Yingying gave a wink to a member of the Sun Moon Sect not far from her.
The man nodded in understanding, raised his hand, and the Sun Moon Sect members behind him simultaneously raised their crossbows and fired, sending more than a dozen arrows flying towards the center of the field.
"not good!"
Many people in the righteous path were shocked by what they saw. Ning Zhongze, Tianmen Daoist, Master Mo Da, and Abbess Dingxian and Abbess Qingzhu all changed their expressions and were about to take action.
"Master, be careful!"
The disciples of Mount Hua were shocked by the scene and couldn't help but want to draw their swords and rush over.
Lu Da was furious and instinctively reached for his sword at his waist. The next second, a figure swept past him.
"Huh? Where's my sword?"
Lu Dayou reached for his sword but grasped at empty air. He couldn't help but look down and saw that he only had the scabbard left in his hand; the sword was nowhere to be found. When he looked up again, a figure was already rushing towards the center of the arena, still holding his sword in his hand.
"Junior Brother Jiang Ning!"
Lu Dayou shouted.
Jiang Ning moved with incredible speed, unleashing his full power of innate skill, and in a few leaps he rushed into the arena.
when!when!when!
Jiang Ning flew into the air and struck repeatedly with his longsword, knocking all the dozen or so arrows to the ground.
"it is good!"
The martial arts practitioners couldn't help but cheer when they saw Jiang Ning resolve the situation, and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Jiang Ning did not stop after landing; he rushed towards the Sun Moon Sect without stopping.
"Junior Brother Jiang Ning!"
Everyone was shocked by what they saw. The Huashan disciples exclaimed in surprise, not understanding what Jiang Ning was going to do.
Jiang Ning moved with incredible speed, leaving only a blur, and soon he rushed into the Sun Moon Sect's camp.
