“No wonder Master Si Yin gave you special treatment. You truly do have the qualifications to warrant it!” Ji Ou said with a face full of admiration. “However, being at the second level of the Myriad Methods realm, it would be utterly humiliating if I couldn’t defeat you.”
“Brother Ye, from this point on, I’m going to get truly serious.”
From a distance, Shi Wuchen muttered under his breath, “What a chatterbox.” He had already claimed he was going to get serious, and now he was saying it again. How many times did he need to repeat himself?
Masters Mu Yeyun and Rong Siyan, however, exchanged an amused glance. Although Shi Wuchen was complaining about Ji Ou, everyone in Lingjian Mountain knew that Ji Ou and Jiang Yihan often acted recklessly and caused trouble, leading to numerous punishments from Shi Wuchen. But in reality, Shi Wuchen cared deeply for his two disciples.
In the training ground, Ji Ou clenched his hand, and a surging energy erupted from within him. The Leihuang Dongtian Blade’s blade glow coalesced, and a terrifying force raged outward.
“Eight Desolations Heaven-Splitting Blade!”
Ji Ou’s momentum rose to its peak, and an overwhelming pressure bore down on Ye Wushuang. This strike was more domineering and aggressive than any of his previous attacks.
Ye Wushuang’s entire body also gathered and elevated its strength. His Sword Intent was at its perfect state, merging with the Tianya Sword and integrating with the Tian Gang Seven Elements Sword Technique.
“Tian Gang Seven Stars Style!”
With a mental command, he swung his sword down. The sword emerged like a star, its radiance dazzling. As Ye Wushuang’s sword struck, seven sword glows rose into the air, forming a pattern like the Big Dipper in the sky, each seemingly independent yet part of a whole.
The terrifying sword energy collided once more with Ji Ou’s condensed knife energy. In mid-air, the Seven Stars sword energy and the knife energy clashed, drawing the attention of everyone present. But soon, everyone realized that Ji Ou’s knife energy was actually being suppressed by Ye Wushuang’s sword energy. This was simply inconceivable. Moreover, the suppression continued to grow stronger.
Eventually, Ye Wushuang’s condensed sword energy completely devoured Ji Ou’s knife energy. Ji Ou was pushed back dozens of meters, his face filled with shock. He had actually been repelled by Ye Wushuang. This was truly unimaginable!
Ji Ou snorted and said again, “Brother Ye, I still have my ultimate move. If you can block it, then I, Ji Ou, will admit that I am no match for you!”
As Ji Ou spoke, his entire body erupted with power. At this moment, it seemed as if all of Ji Ou’s strength had become one, as if he had achieved a state of unity between himself and his knife. He was the knife, and the knife was him, inseparable!
In this moment, Ji Ou had become completely different. It was as if, in some mysterious way, he and the knife were constantly shifting, sometimes being the person, sometimes being the knife.
“Damn it, something feels off!” one disciple muttered.
“I don’t know… but there’s something eerie about Senior Ji’s strike…” another replied.
“It’s more than eerie. It feels like he’s become… a knife capable of splitting the heavens and cleaving the earth!” a third disciple added.
Everyone present could sense the strange transformation in Ji Ou. It wasn’t a change in his technique, but something uniquely different about him. It was mysterious and eerie, yet indescribable.
“Shi Wuchen, you’re quite generous, aren’t you? Teaching Ji Ou your ultimate skills!” Mu Yeyun remarked with a hint of surprise.
Shi Wuchen chuckled and replied, “Even if I taught him, he still had to be able to learn it. I taught Jiang Yihan too, but that boy… he just couldn’t grasp it.”
No one knew what Master Shi Wuchen’s ultimate skill was. But the state that Ji Ou was now displaying was indeed very strange. It was mysterious, yet no one could quite put their finger on why.
However, when Ji Ou’s strike came down, everyone’s confusion turned into astonishment.
