Jiang Wang did not believe that in this world, someone âshould not loseâ.For every strong competitor, there is always someone stronger, and even those at the peak still look up to the sky.
The young man in the splendid robe spoke as if it were a matter of course, suggesting he truly believed he had a reason ânot to loseâ.
But Jiang Wang did not want to lose either.
Once the horn of battle sounded, Longing had already been drawn from the sheath.
Because the speed was too fast, it seemed to happen simultaneously.
As soon as Ling Yueâs words ended, the sword was already at his throat.
A single water droplet fell.
This clear process, ingeniously concluded.
The water droplet just happened to fall on the tip of the sword.
Jiang Wang felt a heaviness in his hand.
It was only a droplet, yet it was like a river!
This was a Heavy Water Technique far more sophisticated than Tian Heâs.
With Zhongxuan Shengâs current strength, even using a Heavy Technique, he might not achieve such an effect.
Longing plummeted straight down, and Jiang Wang steadied his wrist.
The direction of the sword tip changed, and thus the river reversed, the water droplet flying away.
Jiang Wang executed a direct horizontal pull, a stroke that embodied endless expressive elegance, the sword of a disheartened gentleman!
At the same time, a stunningly elaborate azure vestment robe appeared on Ling Yueâs body, flowing like water with shimmering ripples, highlighting him as an emperor among the waves.
The sword tip grazed across the blue robe, slashing it open, but ultimately failing to harm Ling Yue.
In their last encounter, neither the stroke of the disheartened gentleman nor this blue vestment robe had made an appearance.
Both were slightly surprised, yet neitherâs confidence wavered.
The water droplet that had been grazed by the sword tip fell to the ground with a âplinkâ and instantly exploded, forming a river!
Ling Yue even raised his hand, and a torrential flow surged from his palm, vast and mighty, repelling Jiang Wang who was closing in and quickly covering the dueling ground with the connected rivers within two breathsâ time.
The âWater Cageâ reappeared.
Last time, it was this almost insoluble technique that drove Jiang Wang to a dead end.
This time, using the same move, his determination to win was terrifying.
And whereas last time it took three breaths to cover the dueling ground, this time it only took two.
For a technique of this caliber, shortening the duration by one breath was a tremendous improvement.
Once again, Jiang Wang was engulfed by âwaterâ.
And the pressure of the water kept increasing as if deep underwater.
The silvery white sphere reappeared in the water, and Jiang Wang chose to protect himself by forming a circle with one sword strike.
After being tempered in the Forest Sea Source Realm, his ability to form a circular defense with his sword had greatly matured, and its resistance to pressure was incomparable to before.
But the young man in the splendid robe had grown stronger too, and the water pressure instantly intensified to a horrifying degree, making it impossible for him to hold out for long.
Jiang Wang, with a single hand gesture, called forth âJealous Flameâ!
Stirring emotions, it incited jealousy in the young man in the splendid robe.
But since he was waiting for a rematch with Jiang Wang, he certainly had targeted this particular Dao Technique.
His eyes began to whirl with a vortex, all emotions stirred by the âJealous Flameâ technique, just as they arose, were sucked away by that vortex.
However, with Jiang Wangâs combat ingenuity, how could he pin his hopes on the success of âJealous Flameâ for a second time?
He was never one to place his hopes on his opponent.
So, his use of this technique was simply to draw the young man in the splendid robe into a response.
The Jealous Flame still burned; the sword circle still stood.
But at this moment, within the young manâs Tongtian Palace, suddenly hundreds of black snakes slithered in!
This was a Dao Technique Jiang Wang had personally experienced from the Hidden Snake King in the Forest Sea Source Realm.
After his own analysis and reinforced through the simulation on the cultivation platform, he was ready to use it.
It was a Dao Technique that acted solely on the spiritual soul level, known as the Soul Stealth Snake!
From the very beginning, he had devised a plan, not to contend with the young man in the vestment robe on the level of Dao Technique, not even on the flesh body level, but to directly pull the battlefield into the realm of the spirit and soul!
Although one enters the Taixu Illusion Realm with oneâs mind and spirit, it is a place that fully reflects reality.
That is to say, it possessed both âflesh bodyâ and âspirit soul.â
In the last battle, Jiang Wang had already discovered that emotions were this youth in the vestment robeâs weakness.
No matter how much he fortified himself, no matter how talented he was, at most he would only guard against Dao Techniques related to emotions.
And the God Soul Technique was a whole new battlefield!
Having survived the trial of the Red Mirrorâs flying snow, Jiang Wang was confident in his divine soul strength.
However, before the Dao Technique of Soul Stealth Snake appeared, Jiang Wang could not engage in a duel on the spiritual soul level, unless he was invaded and fought on his own turf.
Now, he had the ability to invade othersâ spirits and souls.
In battles on the spiritual soul level, the invader always had to withstand greater pressure, constantly resisting the rejection from the opponentâs Tongtian Palace.
So Jiang Wang was in a ârush for time.â
His current limit was controlling three hundred black snakes, so he drove all three hundred at once!
Three hundred black snakes surged in at high speed, intent on choosing their victim.
Just then, inside the splendid Tongtian Palace, a small blue dragon leaped from the dome and roared loudly!
It forcefully repelled the swarm of black snakes.
This was the young manâs Dao veinâs True Spirit!
It actually possessed the capability on the spiritual soul level and was already able to protect its own Tongtian Palace!
The blue dragonâs size rapidly grew, and the youth in the vestment robe, materialized from the spirit soul, stood atop the blue dragonâs head, overlooking the swarm of black snakes.
The swarm of black snakes hesitated and trembled under the pressure from the Tongtian Palace and the blue dragon.
This was due to âfighting on foreign territoryâ and the suppression of their rank.
The blue dragon swooped down, and with a single paw, more than ten black snakes dissipated into smoke.
It pounced to the left and right, savagely hunting.
However, at that moment, one of the black snakes suddenly leaped out, transforming into Jiang Wangâs form.
He personally used the Soul Stealth Snake as a medium, with the power of his spirit and soul, to enter someone elseâs Tongtian Palace!
In the real world, he might not dare to attempt this because the spirit soul is very fragile, and rashly entering the opponentâs âhome fieldâ is akin to suicide.
But in the Taixu Illusion Realm, it was worth exploring this kind of battle beforehand.
The real world is vast and boundless, with all sorts of Cultivation Techniques and secret techniques, more plentiful than the stars in the sky, and you never know when you might encounter them.
PerhapsâŚ
this kind of uninhibited attempt is the greatest significance of fighting in the Taixu Illusion Realm.
The youthâs Tongtian Palace was entirely different from Jiang Wangâs own, not only in style.
This was not the time to study these differences.
When Jiang Wang materialized his form, he immediately felt an omnipresent oppressive force.
This place did not welcome him; it was quietly and silently expelling him!
Not only was the spirit soul being expelled, but âOne Sword to Complete the Circleâ couldnât fight against the terrible water pressure for too much time either.
He absolutely couldnât delay any longer!
Jiang Wang made his decision in his heart, and with a wave of his hand, flames of divine soul strength flew out, instantly expanding into a Divine Soul Flower Sea!
The youth atop the blue dragon paused noticeably, then suddenly, both he and the blue dragon were engulfed within the Divine Soul Flower Sea within their own Tongtian Palace.
And Jiang Wang immediately followed the omnipresent ârejection,â directly exiting the Tongtian Palace.
With âOne Sword to Complete the Circleâ halted, Jiang Wang unleashed a dazzling sword strike, tearing through the momentarily uncontrolled water flow, shooting straight at his opponent!
He did not expect to overcome his adversary within the youthâs Tongtian Palace with the God Soul Technique.
All he needed was the âsiegeâ on the spiritual soul level!
With the advantage on the spirit soul battlefield, he could guide the victory in the external battlefield.
The omnipresent water, becoming stronger and stronger water pressure, was an almost unsolvable problem, but when it lost control, breaking it required only a brief burst of explosive power.
As the sword reached the youthâs forehead, the youth in the vestment robe suddenly opened his eyes.
âI lost,â he said.
The water that filled the dueling field receded all at once, surging back into his palm.
Thus, the swordâs tip came to a halt.
