Chapter 87: A Sword Severing Mountains and Rivers
Chapter 87: A Sword Severing Mountains and Rivers
Fan Xian wanted to add something to the plan.
Ye Chengfeng's expression suddenly changed drastically, and Fan Xian naturally noticed this change.
"What's wrong, Lao Ye?"
"Look over there!"
Fan Xian looked in the direction Ye Chengfeng was pointing.
A white line appeared on the river surface a mile or two away from them.
No, that's not a white line, that's a wave, and it's coming towards the ship at an extremely fast speed.
"What's going on? How can there be such big waves on the river?"
Ye Chengfeng was speechless upon hearing Fan Xian's words.
"Are you blind? Didn't you see the fight downstream? Besides, whose waves go upstream?"
"Forehead!"
Fan Xian quickly observed carefully, and sure enough, there were two people fighting on the river.
They were moving too fast; if he hadn't observed them carefully, he wouldn't have been able to see them at all.
"Could it be two grandmasters fighting?"
Fan Xian asked Ye Chengfeng with suspicion, though he already had a guess in his heart.
"Hmm, it should be Ye Liuyun and Old Li. It's a pity that Old Li's strength is still a bit lacking compared to a Grandmaster. I'll go help him."
Before Fan Xian could ask any further questions, Ye Chengfeng took off on his sword and headed straight for the place where the two had fought.
Fan Xian originally wanted to ask why Li Chengzhu was able to fight against a Grandmaster.
Unexpectedly, Ye Chengfeng still dared to approach him.
Even the aftershocks could cause such a celestial phenomenon; Fan Xian was truly afraid that Ye Chengfeng would die from the aftershocks of their fight!
But then I saw that Ye Chengfeng actually flew over on a sword.
Fan Xian was no longer calm!
As Ye Chengfeng flew away on his sword, Fan Ruoruo also came to the deck.
"Brother, what happened? Was that Chengfeng just now?"
"The two grandmasters are fighting, and Old Ye has gone to help."
"Oh no! Is Brother Chengfeng in danger?!"
Fan Ruoruo looked nervously at the towering waves.
"He can fly, what danger could he possibly be in?"
Fan Xian's words had a double meaning; he not only comforted his sister but also expressed his envy and jealousy!
Meanwhile, when Ye Chengfeng arrived, Ye Liuyun and Li Chengzhu temporarily stopped fighting.
Both of them looked in the direction where Ye Chengfeng was.
Li Chengzhu had only been separated from Ye Chengfeng for a short time.
He knew Ye Chengfeng's previous cultivation level; because of saving Fan Xian, it was only at the initial ninth rank.
But at this moment, Ye Chengfeng gave him a completely different feeling.
It was a feeling of being on par with him!
"Grandmaster? No, weaker than a Grandmaster."
Previously, Li Chengzhu might not have been able to determine this, but after fighting Ye Liuyun, he was able to judge the strength of a Grandmaster.
"Why are you here?"
"I was afraid you'd get beaten to death by Old Master Ye, so I came to check on you."
Li Chengzhu snorted coldly; he was indeed no match for Ye Liuyun.
The Temple Messenger is indeed the same model of robot as Wu Zhu, but Wu Zhu has awakened self-awareness.
At the same time, Wu Zhu also has a lot of data on his battles with Grandmasters, making him much stronger than other temple messengers.
Ye Liuyun glanced at Ye Chengfeng, then stared intently at Li Chengzhu.
He was utterly shocked!
Before Ye Liuyun became a Grandmaster, he was often beaten by Wu Zhu.
Li Chengzhu's fighting style is undoubtedly very similar to Wu Zhu's.
How could this not make Ye Liuyun think too much?
"Greetings, senior. I am Ye Chengfeng, Ye Ling'er's fiancé."
"You're Ye Chengfeng, the little swordsman from Dongyi City who kidnapped Xiao Ling'er?"
Ye Liuyun frowned and looked at Ye Chengfeng.
"Um, well, senior, Ling'er and I are mutually in love."
"Hmph, mutual affection my foot! Do you really think I'm someone who doesn't care about worldly affairs?"
The wooden boat wreckage he was standing on shattered into pieces in an instant.
Ye Liuyun struck Ye Chengfeng with incredible speed.
"Let me test your mettle!"
Ye Liuyun was using the Flowing Cloud Scattered Hand technique, which Ye Chengfeng was very familiar with.
Ye Chengfeng naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait to die. He lightly tapped his foot and flew his flying sword to Ye Liuyun's front, intending to use the toughness of the Xuanhun Sword to resist Ye Liuyun's palm strike.
The fight between Ye Chengfeng and Ye Liuyun was not as intense as the fight with Li Chengzhu before.
After all, Li Chengzhu fought with his strong physical strength and even greater power.
At this moment, Ye Chengfeng and Ye Liuyun were competing in terms of internal energy.
A vacuum zone, completely interwoven with true energy, was formed around them.
Everything around him was shut out, including Li Chengzhu.
The river beneath their feet was also like that; the riverbed mud was now visible.
The surrounding river water could not flow back in due to the influence of the true energy.
If Ye Chengfeng were to compete with Ye Liuyun in terms of internal energy, he would definitely be at a disadvantage.
At this time, his cultivation level was only half a step into the Grandmaster realm, and his true energy was far inferior to Ye Liuyun's.
Ye Chengfeng was filled with mixed emotions, and he was thinking about how to break the deadlock.
"I wonder if I can condense water into a sword?"
Ye Chengfeng thought to himself, "I have no other choice now."
Moreover, he could see that Ye Liuyun had no intention of killing him, which might be an opportunity for him to test what he had learned.
Once the thought was clear, Ye Chengfeng was seen to be surrounded by endless, invisible sword intent and sword momentum.
Thin streams began to enter the vacuum zone that water could not previously penetrate.
At the same time, these streams began to slowly form water swords with somewhat unstable shapes.
Ye Liuyun was somewhat surprised, as he had been practicing swordsmanship before breaking through to the Grandmaster level.
His swordsmanship was only slightly inferior to that of Si Gu Jian.
"Not bad, lad. Your swordsmanship is truly unique."
"This is something I've recently come to understand; would you please take a look and critique it, senior?"
Continuing to compete in internal energy was becoming too much for Ye Chengfeng, and he wanted Ye Liuyun to give up competing with him in internal energy.
Ye Liuyun naturally saw through his little scheme, but did not refuse Ye Chengfeng's suggestion.
"Alright, let me see how much this sword of yours really weighs."
Ye Liuyun withdrew his true energy without hesitation and retreated to a distance of over 100 meters.
Ye Chengfeng's sword strike clearly required a period of preparation.
Without direct pressure, the water swords around him became much more stable, and their number steadily increased.
After about fifteen minutes, Ye Chengfeng felt that he had reached his limit and could no longer perfectly control the water sword as he continued to condense it.
Continuing to condense the water sword would not increase its power, so he stopped.
"Senior, please accept this challenge!"
"A myriad of swords gather, man and sword become one!"
Ye Chengfeng wielded the Xuanhun Sword, and the surrounding water swords moved accordingly!
Countless water swords, like armor, completely enveloped Ye Chengfeng, eventually forming an enormous water sword.
Sword pointed at Ye Liuyun!
"One sword can cleave mountains and rivers!"
As soon as the sword was drawn, the surrounding river water, which had been flowing back, was completely swept away by the powerful sword force, forming a huge ravine, and even the riverbed silt was stirred up.
"What a sword! What a move, a single strike that can cleave mountains and rivers!"
Ye Liuyun's expression brightened, and he praised her.
At the same time, he unleashed his true energy, striking out with an invisible palm force.
Compared to Ye Chengfeng's magnificent and vast sword techniques, Ye Liuyun's palm force was formless and intangible, and one could only vaguely sense its vastness.
This is what makes the world of Joy of Life special: true qi cannot be seen with the naked eye, and the palm force condensed from true qi cannot be observed with the naked eye either!
"Bang!"
The enormous water sword collided with the palm force, causing the riverbed to break. At the center of the collision, the water slowly sank in a spiral!
*Thump!*
*Thump!*
Two consecutive sounds caused the surrounding riverbed to sink at least three meters, with the central area sinking by about five meters!
