Chapter 1023 Strong Will
On the battlefield, the terrifying pressure of the sword enveloped the vast area, and sharp sword lights raged in the storm, cutting everything.
Jie stood in the storm, with shocking knife marks on his body, and blood shot out, dyeing the void red.
A flash of violence flashed in Jie's eyes. In an instant, a terrifying pressure broke out around him, revealing an extremely ancient breath. His palm stretched forward, and golden shields flew around him. Sharp knife marks fell on the shields. The shields trembled, but did not break. They were extremely solid and seemed indestructible.
"It's my turn."
An indifferent voice came from Jie's mouth. After the voice fell, Jie stepped directly into the void and strode towards the direction of the knife maniac.
The golden shield flew endlessly, protecting him, and a thick earth-like breath permeated from it. The knife maniac's eyes became particularly solemn, realizing that the real battle was about to begin.
"Boom." As Jie's footsteps fell, a terrible pressure instantly descended on Dao Kuang, and the spiritual energy in the space gathered and turned into a golden halberd.
Reaching out and holding it, Jie directly inserted the halberd downwards. A sharp sound suddenly came out in the air, making the crowd feel that their eardrums were about to be torn apart. Then they saw that the golden halberd actually penetrated the void directly, shot down rapidly, and stabbed Dao Kuang's body with an unstoppable momentum.
"Thousands of slashes!"
Dao Kuang uttered a sound, and the long sword in his hand slashed upwards. A flash of sword light bloomed, so bright that people could not open their eyes. The sword light continued to spread, as if it was endless, and thousands of sword lights wrapped around the golden halberd at the same time.
With a loud bang, the halberd penetrated the sword light, and the sword light broke from it. The speed of the halberd did not slow down, and it shot directly at Dao Kuang's body.
The halberd was too fast, so fast that it was unbelievable, like a ray of light.
Dao Kuang's expression changed drastically, and the Yuan Soul behind him blossomed into a long sword. At this moment, his body directly merged with the long sword, and his momentum soared again. A terrifying pressure swept over, and with a loud hum, the long sword slashed forward, trying to break everything.
Seeing this moment, the crowd seemed to stop breathing, it was too thrilling.
Just now, Jie's attack was simply terrible, directly breaking through the heavy sword light released by Dao Kuang. What a terrible attack power it requires, even a person in the second level of Yuanhuang realm can't resist it, right?
What shocked everyone even more was that Dao Kuang did not retreat, but instead advanced and merged with his own Yuan Soul. This can be said to be a fight to the death.
Dao Wutian's eyes were stern. He could see that Dao Kuang had tried his best. If he couldn't win this time, he could only admit defeat. As the son of the Sword God Palace, he certainly didn't want to see this scene happen.
"Boom!" There was another loud and violent sound. Jie's body shot down and stepped heavily on the void, causing the surrounding sword energy to be annihilated instantly. He held the long halberd again, his arm trembling, and the long halberd danced wildly, stirring up the wind and clouds, and the sky and the earth changed color.
Everyone stared at the sharp and peerless figure in the void, feeling like looking at an invincible god, unstoppable.
On the other side, the knife maniac merged with the Yuanhun, and his body turned into a divine sword, standing in the void. The sun's light shone down and fell on the blade, and the cold light refracted out, containing extremely terrifying sword intent, which was about to blind people's eyes.
"One strike, decide the outcome."
Jie looked at the long sword, and then his body began to run, surrounded by the golden shield. His huge body and extreme speed made a golden storm blow around him. He suddenly stabbed out with the long halberd, carrying the golden storm directly to the divine sword, trying to completely annihilate and destroy it.
"Buzz." With a loud hum, the long sword fell down, the space shook, and a stream of light appeared in the void, dazzling to the extreme.
At this moment, time and space seemed to freeze, leaving only this sword light.
The sword light cut into the storm, and the space collapsed instantly. The storm enveloped everything. The people outside could not see what was happening inside, but could only sense that an extremely terrible attack was erupting inside.
After a while, the space gradually calmed down, the storm dissipated, and the crowd's eyes focused, only to see two figures standing in it, facing each other in silence.
"Who won?" Everyone's eyes flashed with a look of doubt, which was what they were most concerned about at the moment.
"Tick."
A drop of blood dripped into the void, instantly attracting everyone's attention, and finally all gathered on the fingertips of the knife maniac.
I saw blood dripping down continuously, not just the fingers, many parts began to bleed, and the more and more blood flowed, the more the knife maniac's body did not move at all, still standing there straight, revealing a spirit of never giving up.
On the other hand, Jie looked calm, but his breath was a little unstable. There were many deep knife marks on his body, but this kind of injury was nothing for him who had super recovery ability.
The result was obvious. Jie won and entered the top four first.
Jie looked at Dao Kuang, and his eyes changed a little. He was no longer as contemptuous as before, but more respectful. He said: "You are stronger than I thought. Although I won this battle, I won in blood, not a complete victory."
"If you lose, you lose. There is nothing to say." Dao Kuang shook his head and uttered a voice with a slightly sad tone.
Then he turned and walked off the stage, stopping in the top eight.
The crowd followed Dao Kuang's footsteps and walked away, with admiration in their eyes. Although Dao Kuang lost this battle, he let the world witness his unyielding will and strong strength. If it weren't for Jie's terrifying recovery ability, the result would be hard to say.
"Bang."
A bang sounded, and everyone was shocked. Dao Kuang knelt directly on the ground, his face as pale as paper, covering his chest with his hands. At this time, he seemed to have no strength to stand up.
It was not until this moment that he began to put away all his disguises and reveal his true self. He was just holding on before.
In his opinion, if he didn't step down from the stage, he had no reason to fall down and had to keep fighting.
"What a strong willpower!" Qin Xuan's eyes flashed with a solemn look, and he couldn't help but admire Dao Kuang. The two most important points for a warrior are talent and Taoism.
Taoism is reflected in willpower.
If the opponent was defeated without fighting before, it proved that the person's Tao heart was unstable and his willpower was too weak, but Dao Kuang's willpower was extraordinary, which might be related to his practice of the power of the sword, making his Tao heart as tough and sharp as the sword, and he would not be easily defeated.
"This battle, Jie wins." Song Ming announced loudly, looking at Jie, and said: "You first find a battle platform to practice and prepare for the final decisive battle."
Jie nodded, looked around, and randomly found a battle platform to rest and recover from the injuries he had just suffered. Although he had a strong recovery ability, it would take some time to recover to his peak state.
