Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!

The man in blue was heavily injured. He retreated, bleeding, his gaze fixed intently on Guang Xiaoyu. This girl… she's not simple… Supreme Mystery Realm?

"I told you before, your swordsmanship is inadequate," another figure, also a young man with ordinary looks, stepped out from the Void on the left.

As his voice fell, he raised his hand and slashed with his sword, unleashing an attribute sword skill as well.

Wood!

Vegetation grew wildly, covering the skies and earth. Though it was surrounded by mighty Vitality Power, the prevalent aura was one of killing intention.

Very strong.

Guang Xiaoyu spoke again, "You need to use fire."

"Shut up!" Zhou Huaian glared at her. Although he was grateful for Guang Xiaoyu's teaching, he… truly did not cultivate attribute sword techniques.

He couldn't be blamed.

In the cultivation world, attribute sword techniques were almost all high-level cultivation methods. Although he was the number one talent of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he came from an insignificant background with meager family resources. The methods he cultivated were merely of the Heaven Rank.

This was his limit.

Guang Xiaoyu had interjected twice, making him really want to strike her with his sword.

"You don't have any?" Guang Xiaoyu frowned. "Isn't the Central Continent claimed to be the strongest of all states? How can you have nothing? Not even a few attribute sword techniques?"

Just a few? The cultivators present felt like vomiting blood upon hearing these words.

But they had no way to refute her, because Guang Xiaoyu truly possessed them.

This remark also made them realize something: this little girl came from another great state.

BANG!

Another ray of light blasted into Zhou Huaian's mind—a Blazing Fire Sword Skill.

Zhou Huaian was shaken. After a brief moment of enlightenment, he unleashed the Blazing Fire Sword Skill, shattering the second man's sword attack.

This girl…

Witnessing this scene, everyone was shocked.

Even the two formidable figures from Chong Tower showed surprise, staring intently at Guang Xiaoyu.

"How will you break my Li Fire Sword Skill?" an old man stepped forward. His face was withered and wrinkled, his eyes so deeply sunken you could hardly see his pupils.

He was also a late-stage Divine King expert.

Stepping out of the Void, he executed a slash. A mighty Sword Intent exploded, igniting raging flames.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

Everyone's gaze turned to Guang Xiaoyu. The opponent used a fire sword skill; does she also have a water sword skill?

Zhou Huaian also looked at her.

"You people from Chong Tower are really troublesome," Guang Xiaoyu frowned. "Oh well, fine. I'll pass this Five Elements Sword Skill to you." She took a few steps forward, and strands of light shot from her fingertip into Zhou Huaian's mind.

At the same time, her voice came through, "The Five Elements Sword Skill's elements can foster or counteract each other. They can also be used inversely. As long as you're strong enough... so there is no absolute invincibility. Don't rely on it too much."

She actually has it!

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Even the old man who had attacked was briefly stunned.

At that moment, Zhou Huaian opened his eyes and unleashed a water-type sword skill. The Sword Intent coalesced into a huge dragon, roaring as it rushed towards the opposing inferno.

In an instant, it dissolved the flames.

And in another instant, the scene fell quiet.

The three supreme experts from Chong Tower had taken action. This was originally an inevitable death sentence for Zhou Huaian and Princess Zi Ji, yet no one expected an enigmatic young girl to resolve it so easily.

She possessed the Five Elements Sword Skill.

Remarkable!

Zhou Huaian's eyes shone brightly, brimming with elation. Having comprehended the Five Elements Sword Skill, he felt as if he had glimpsed the threshold of Sword Taoist Perfection and faintly perceived the true Sword Dao.

It seemed within easy reach.

But… his expression soon turned solemn. Chong Tower also possessed the Five Elements Sword Skill, wielded by five people, each a late-stage Divine King of formidable strength.

As expected…

After three failures, the remaining two also stepped forward.

Zhou Huaian was speechless. "..."

Guang Xiaoyu raised an eyebrow. "I see. So you're planning to employ the Five Elements Sword Formation, huh?"

"Uh!" Zhou Huaian looked at her. "This little... lady... Senior? May I ask if there's a way to break the Five Elements Sword Formation?"

He was secretly hopeful. You've already taught me the Five Elements Sword Skill, so could it be that you also know how to break the formation…?

Guang Xiaoyu shook her head. "There is a way, but your cultivation realm is too low. You would find it difficult to comprehend in a short time. Even if you did manage to understand it, it's unlikely you could break their sword formation."

"..."

If it had been any other time, he would have burst out cursing, "Your realm is the low one! You're just a Supreme Mystery Realm cultivator, and you dare mock me, this young master?"

But now, his face was grim, and he dared not speak.

HUMMM! HUMMM! HUMMM!

Sword Intents gathered in the skies as they began to set up the formation.

Zhou Huaian's expression changed drastically. He quickly glanced back, feeling anxious. "Brother Chen, you better not run off! All my hopes are on you now!"

According to Chen Pingping's plan, he and Princess Zi Ji were to continue forward, remain calm, and wait for their formidable enemies to strike. At that point, Chen Pingping, in his guise as a "senior," would take powerful action.

He would slay them with thunderous methods, deterring the remaining powerful opponents.

Otherwise, if the hidden opponents attacked together, they would stand no chance.

And now, five late-stage Divine King experts from Chong Tower had arrived and were about to deploy the Five Elements Sword Formation. All eyes were on Chen Pingping.

Guang Xiaoyu walked over, leading Lao Huang the ox.

"Senior? Do you still have a way?" Zhou Huaian couldn't believe it. The opponents are about to execute their sword formation, and you, a mere Supreme Mystery Realm cultivator, still have a way to break it?

"Nope!" she shook her head.

"..."

If you don't have a way, then why come over here? Are you looking to die? Zhou Huaian was speechless.

Guang Xiaoyu looked at Zi Ji and smiled. "Not bad, not bad. She's indeed a promising seedling." She was in no hurry.

The Five Elements Sword Formation of the Chong Tower experts might be strong, but Lao Huang the ox's aura isn't bad either. By my estimation, Lao Huang should be able to withstand attacks from anyone below the Heaven Rank.

Moreover, my Senior Brother hasn't appeared at all. She remembered the battle in the Wasteland, near the Boundary Monument.

Zi Ji remained silent, curiously sizing Guang Xiaoyu up.

WHIZZ!

The Five Elements Sword Formation descended, five different glows enveloping the sky as if to drown everything beneath. The killing intent within was extremely strong. Even a Divine King of the Ninth Heaven might not be able to withstand it.

"Is she finally going to die?"

"To pay such a price, hehe…"

"She was never meant to exist."

「In a corner of the small town.」

Faint voices arose, audible only to themselves.

Looking towards the deadly trap on the pathway, they revealed smiles that had been absent for a long time. Zi Ji is finally going to die. Only with her death will we have the chance to ascend.

However…

The smiles on their faces didn't last long. At the very moment the Five Elements Sword Formation struck down, from afar… a large mountain entered the scene.

No!

It was a mountain shaped like a Sword Body—majestic and imposing. It inched closer with extreme slowness, yet its powerful presence had already filled the small battlefield.

A slight vibration instantly shattered one corner of the Sword Array.

Everyone shot to their feet, their pupils constricting tightly as they stared at the enormous Sword Mountain.

Even Zhou Huaian was dumbstruck.

Guang Xiaoyu smiled, uttering just two words, "As expected!"

"Attack!" Seeing this sudden development, those hiding in the shadows could hold back no longer. With a single command, the waiting experts rushed out.

Zhou Huaian cried out in alarm.

"Shut up!" Guang Xiaoyu scolded. "What are you shouting for? I'm still here!"
