Chapter 381 [Saint’s Fury]
Lu Sisi’s face was filled with shock!
Her astonishment lay in that, as a Saint, in the span of countless years, the last time someone drew a blade against her had been so long ago that the memory was nearly completely obliterated!
A mere Third Realm cultivator, almost ant-like in existence, actually drew a blade against the illustrious Saint!
How dare he?!
·
Buzz!
The blade edge descended straight down!
Lu Sisi’s pupils seemed to contract slightly, then an abrupt anomaly occurred!
She appeared to stand unmoving at the spot, yet her body slid back several inches!
As though space had lightly twisted at that moment, the pulling sensation in space was akin to an edited photo, where everything around was distorted, and the blade edge that should have landed on Lu Sisi was skewed and shortened by the spatial distortion, while she shifted back, causing the strike to miss!
The tip of the blade almost grazed Lu Sisi’s nose as it descended, then buzzed, striking the ground beneath her.
Chen Yan took a deep breath, twisted his palm forcefully, and reversed the blade edge upwards, yet Lu Sisi still did not move. Even as space distorted once again, Lu Sisi’s body was forcibly twisted sideways by the spatial pressure, causing this blade to miss again!
Chen Yan’s fingers trembled slightly, then he swung the blade horizontally once more...
Subsequently, Chen Yan delivered a rapid series of three strikes, either hacking, chopping, or slashing!
Primordial Qi surged within the blade edge, seemingly mixed with radiance, yet under the spatial distortion, whether it was the blade edge or the blade light, Lu Sisi, standing there motionless, inexplicably evaded them all!
With three consecutive strikes, Chen Yan almost unleashed his utmost skill!
He had sat still within the forest for several days, meditating and maneuvering Primordial Qi daily, focusing and Nourishing the Spirit, practicing saber techniques every day, and rehearsing this action scene in his mind hundreds of times!
At this moment, he released a flurry of consecutive strikes; both his saber technique and Essence, Qi, and Spirit had reached the peak of his current cultivation realm, even surpassing it!
Additionally, having experienced war within the Domain Realm and seen blood, his saber technique, honed over days, exploded forth, faintly carrying traces of Evil Qi!
Yet, even at such a peak, those strikes fell entirely empty!
After several failed strikes, Chen Yan’s face remained cold and resolute, but a trace of complexity flashed within his pupils. Suddenly, he stepped back and withdrew the blade in his hand.
He stared at Lu Sisi... a Saint, indeed a Saint!
Lu Sisi had already narrowed her eyes, standing there, looking sideways at Chen Yan.
At this moment, an upheaval occurred once more!
The sky was suddenly stirred with clouds and wind, like thunder striking from flat ground, exploding loudly across the sky!
Numerous billowing clouds seemed to appear out of nowhere, pressing down blackly towards the ground, rapidly accumulating currents within the clouds, and with that loud explosion, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky!!
Lu Sisi looked up at the sky, furrowed her brows lightly, and finally sighed.
She raised a hand, gently pointed towards the sky.
With a buzz, a burst of Primordial Qi ascended into the sky, blocking the falling lightning.
After the explosive thunder, Lu Sisi’s aura seemed to tremble violently, though the lightning was blocked, her aura visibly declined.
She still stood there, yet the ability to distort space effortlessly, that profound sense obvious yet elusive, was shattered under the impact of the lightning.
Chen Yan arched an eyebrow! He scoffed coldly, saying, "The Heavenly Dao of this realm does not tolerate cultivators, much less Saints! If you dare to misuse Holy Power, the Heavenly Dao will not tolerate you!"
Lu Sisi furrowed her brows, looking at Chen Yan: "Is this your calculation? Knowing that you are no match for me and attempting to suppress me with the might of the Heavenly Dao?"
She shook her head with a light laugh: "Even with just Third Realm cultivation, defeating you is as easy as turning my hand."
At her wrist, she suddenly trembled lightly on the spot.
Though her enigmatic aura dispersed, her aura became even more refined and genuine.
Chen Yan scrutinized closely, only to realize the aura surrounding Lu Sisi suddenly began to change, expanding then compressing, fluctuating, yet promptly settled.
Ultimately, these fluctuations halted precisely at the level of the Third Realm, ceasing!
She suddenly extended a hand, and within the woods, a branch flew to her palm, she grasped it and smiled at Chen Yan: "Young Chen, your saber technique is quite interesting. Show it to me again."
Saying so, she pointed the branch at Chen Yan and stepped forward!
·
Despite merely being a finger-thick fragile branch, clenched within her palm, it erupted with an edge comparable to a flying sword!
With just one step, she had already arrived before Chen Yan, thrusting the branch forward!
Chen Yan’s pupils contracted suddenly, as if this "sword" thrust banished heaven and earth from his view, his gaze locked solely on the incoming "sword"!
The sharp point of the branch grew larger and closer in his eyes, yet Chen Yan, absorbed entirely in concentration, seemed to forget action, his body rigid as stone.
Finally, as the branch was about to pierce Chen Yan’s face, he abruptly tightened all his muscles, bloodshot eyes flaring, and with a low roar, under the surging Primordial Qi, the state of mindless stupor was finally shattered!
