Mortal Bones

Chapter 24: Angry Lotus Emerges, Two Shadows on the Bridge Create a Scene of Their Own

But soon, the scene where he had just helped Liang Zhu break through the sword formation appeared in Xu Taiping's mind.

He thought Lin Buyu was curious about his sword skills, so he said seriously:

"If you want to see it, Junior Sister Buyu, I can demonstrate it for you after this experience is over."

Lin Buyu was also stunned when he heard this.

Obviously, although Xu Taiping heard what she was asking, he didn't fully understand it.

However, after seeing Xu Taiping's sincere look, Lin Buyu smiled sweetly, nodded and said:

"OK."

But she immediately asked Xu Taiping:

"When you demonstrate later, can you make the rain fall heavier than just now?"

"Bigger?" Lin Buyu's question made Xu Taiping a little confused.

But after seeing the look of anticipation in Lin Buyu's clear eyes, he finally nodded and said, "I'll try my best... to give it a try."

Xu Taiping explained to him very seriously:

"Although I can use a few more points of true energy when I draw the sword, if the Jueyun Sword doesn't exert its full strength, the momentum my sword can arouse will be very limited."

He then explained to Lin Buyu why he felt that Jueyun Sword was not doing its best.

Lin Buyu did not interrupt Xu Taiping.

Instead, he leaned against the railing of the stone bridge, with a slight smile on his face, watching and listening quietly.

The sun is shining and the breeze is blowing.

The double shadows by the bridge form a scene of their own.

"Zheng!"

After a moment, a loud sword sound suddenly sounded, interrupting the conversation between the two.

The two of them followed the sound of the sword sound, and soon they saw Yu Lan, a disciple of Wufeng dressed in yellow, holding a flying sword with dazzling sword light in the air with his palm, carrying a red sword like a rainbow. A sword-like energy soared into the sky.

"boom!"

When he was about to fly to a height of more than a thousand feet, he saw the flying sword in front of Yu Lan's palm suddenly rushing straight towards the sky as fast as a stream of light.

Seeing this, Lin Buyu said expressionlessly:

"Yu Lan's swordsmanship is indeed quite impressive."

Xu Taiping also nodded at this time and said:

"I'm afraid it's hard to have any rival among my peers."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the red sword light piercing three lanterns hanging high in the sky.

"Zheng!"

And almost at the same time, another sound of swords exploded.

Everyone followed the sound and saw Liang Zhu, dressed in green, rising into the air like Yu Lan just now, holding a flying sword.

From a distance, it looks like a blue dragon rising from the water and soaring into the sky.

Its momentum is no less than that of Yu Lan.

Looking at the two sword lights, one red and one green, Xu Taiping frowned and said:

"It's a pity that Yu Lan has bad character, otherwise, given time, these two swords will become the pillars of Qingxuan."

While speaking, accompanied by two harsh sounds piercing the sky, Liang Zhu's herring drew two beautiful trajectories in the sky and pierced three red lanterns in succession.

The number of lanterns shot down by Liang Zhu immediately equaled that of Yu Lan.

But soon, the red sword shadow transformed by Yu Lan's flying sword suddenly flew towards the sky again after piercing the last lantern on that floor.

"boom!"

Amidst the deafening sound of breaking through the air, Yu Lan's flying sword went up another level, directly reaching an altitude of three thousand feet.

Although for a sword cultivator in the God Refining Realm, there is no problem in wielding a sword from a distance of more than ten miles, but it is different when wielding a sword in the air.

For ordinary monks in the God Refining Realm, being able to fly a sword up to 1,000 feet in the air is considered qualified, flying a sword up to 2,000 feet into the air is considered good, and flying a sword up to 3,000 feet into the air is enough to rank among the best among sword cultivators of the same generation. among them.

And like Yu Lan at this moment, there are very few people, even among the best swordsmen of his generation, who can fly directly up to more than a thousand feet without letting the flying sword hover at the lower level.

This saves time though.

However, the pressure from heaven and the turbulent winds in the sky will also increase exponentially.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

After soaring to an altitude of three thousand feet, Yu Lan shot down three lanterns in one breath.

Seeing this, Lin Buyu, whose eyes were as calm as ever, whispered:

"This Yu Lan must have calculated that Liang Zhu's true energy was very low, so he dared to use such a radical method and rashly let the flying sword fly to an altitude of three thousand feet."

"Even if Liang Zhu can do it, he will definitely spend a lot of real energy for it."

Lifting into the sky in a straight line seems to be much closer, but it consumes more than ten times more real energy and soul power than circling into the air.

"Yeah." Xu Taiping said in a very solemn tone:

"But if you don't do this, you will definitely watch as Yu Lan shoots down all the lanterns on the level three thousand feet above."

"And the number of lanterns at an altitude of three thousand feet is twice that at an altitude of two thousand feet."

The number of these lanterns arranged by Qingxuanzong increased from two thousand feet to six thousand feet.

After 6,000 words, the number will decrease successively.

When they reached a height of 10,000 feet, only the last one was left.

"Zheng!"

At this time, just as Xu Taiping and Lin Buyu had thought, Liang Zhu followed closely behind, his sword rising straight into the sky, and forcing the flying sword to fly to an altitude of three thousand feet.

Xu Taiping used his soul to remotely sense the aura on Liang Zhu's body, then frowned and said:

"She has less than 50% of her true energy left."

On the other hand, Yu Lan still had at least 70% of his true energy left at this time.

However, Liang Zhu obviously didn't care so much anymore. After flying to an altitude of three thousand feet, he immediately desperately urged his true energy to compete with Yu Lan's flying sword.

“Bang, bang, bang!”

Amid the explosions that sounded like firecrackers, Liang Zhu shot down six lanterns hanging in the sky three thousand feet high.

For a moment, the number of lanterns shot down by the two was once again evenly matched.

But just when everyone thought that Yu Lan would compete with Liang Zhu for the remaining three lanterns on that level, Yu Lan suddenly laughed wildly and said:

“Go up another thousand feet!”

As soon as the words fell, accompanied by a loud “bang”, Yu Lan drove the red sword shadow and once again shot the sword light straight up into the sky.

In the blink of an eye, the red sword light flew to the four thousand feet high.

Immediately, with a sharp explosion, Yu Lan’s flying sword was like a wolf entering a flock of sheep, and began to shoot down the floating lanterns on that level.

For a moment, many Qingxuan Sect disciples on the bridge who had originally favored Liang Zhu sighed lightly.

Everyone thought that Liang Zhu, who had lost too much of his true essence, would not be able to outlast Yu Lan, whose true essence was much deeper than before, even if he once again let his flying sword soar into the sky.

No matter how you look at it, Liang Zhu will lose this battle.

"Zheng!"

Just as everyone guessed, with a sound of breaking through the air mixed with the sound of metal and stone breaking, Liang Zhu followed Yu Lan's "footsteps" and also flew straight into the sky with his sword. In the blink of an eye, he flew to a height of four thousand feet.

However, everyone could sense that after this sword, Liang Zhu's true essence was only less than 20%.

This undoubtedly confirmed everyone's guess.
