This was his skill; the Snowy Mountain. It was named for how the energy blades would fall unceasingly like the snow. They appeared as light as snowflakes but were bitingly cold.
Yu Shangrong appeared unruffled. When he brought his sword down, the air around within dozens of meters began to stir, and energy blades appeared around him as he dove down. The energy blades of the Snowy Mountain along with the Longevity Sword stabbed Zhang Yuanshan.
At this moment, a surge of black energy appeared from where Zhang Yuanshan stood. It rose into the air like black smoke and merged with the energy blades.
Yu Shangrong’s expression did not change. He felt the force within the black energy. He was slightly confused by it but did not dwell on the matter. Instead, he focused on attacking
vigor contained within the black energy... He did not dwell upon the slight confusion in his mind. Instead, he focused on attacking. This was the attitude of a sword path elite. They might look ordinary when they were idle, but as soon as they made a move, it would be shocking. He closed the distance of several hundred meters and was upon his target in just a blink of an eye. He brought his sword down.
Bam!
Zhang Yuanshan did not dodge.
Yu Shangrong’s blade pierced Zhang Yuanshan’s heart.
Yu Shangrong’s sword that was shrouded with powerful energy wreaked havoc through Zhang Yuanshan’s Extraordinary Eight Meridians. An ordinary cultivator’s life would end once their vital organs were injured. However, Zhang Yuanshan only narrowed his eyes and joined his palms together. A peculiar wave of energy surged out of his body like a tidal wave.
Whizz!
Yu Shangrong activated his Eight-leaf Avatar and stood atop his Golden Lotus. The avatar shrunk rapidly as the Golden Lotus spun before his avatar was sent reeling when the peculiar energy landed on the Golden Lotus.
Boom!
Yu Shangrong’s avatar disappeared. He hovered in the air in the distance as he looked at Zhang Yuanshan. He murmured, “Interesting.”
Zhang Yuanshan’s palms trembled slightly, and he calmed himself down. It seemed like he was not satisfied with this attack. He discovered that he had underestimated the Sword Devil’s strength. He said in a croaky voice, “In...te...resting?”
“I’ve challenged many elites in the past from the nine provinces to the four seas. Naturally, there were a few who were quite a challenge. You seem to be one of them now,” Yu Shangrong said as he recalled what had just taken place. If he was not experienced in combat and had underestimated his opponent, the peculiar energy would have landed squarely on his chest.
Everyone knew that Hundred Tribulations Insight avatars possessed high defense abilities. However, very few knew that the greatest defense of the Hundred Tribulations avatar didn’t lie with its body but the Golden Lotus.
Yu Shangrong’s Golden Lotus had blocked Zhang Yuanshan’s attack.
Zhang Yuanshan smacked his chest, dislodging the Longevity Sword. Then, he held the sword in his hand and tried to break it with his right hand.
Bam!
A loud noise reverberated in the air as the Longevity Sword flew out of Zhang Yuanshan’s grip toward Yu Shangrong.
Yu Shangrong raised his right hand. As though it was sentient, the Longevity Sword flew right into his grasp. “Trying to break my sword with your bare hands? You’re dreaming.”
The Longevity Sword was one of the best heaven-grade weapons, after all. It had reached perfect harmony with Yu Shangrong a long time ago. It had never been inferior to any weapon that it had met. It was impossible to be broken with one’s bare hands.
Whoosh!
Black energy rose again from Zhang Yuanshan. If one looked closely, one would be able to see that the black energy was actually a dark purple. It was so dark that it seemed black.
The plants and trees within several hundred meters of Zhang Yuanshan began to wither.
Yu Shangrong was certain that Zhang Yuanshan’s body was no longer that of a human. Otherwise, even if Zhang Yuanshan did not die, he would have been severely injured by his Snowy Mountain technique or Longevity Sword earlier. However, Zhang Yuanshan was clearly unaffected by his attack.
The black energy formed a huge circle that spanned several hundred meters.
On the green jade altar, the Nether Sect’s disciples could not suppress their curiosities. They walked up to the edge and watched the battle.
The two opponents faced each other from a distance.
Whizz!
Yu Shangrong activated his avatar. The 100-foot avatar was almost as tall as the green jade altar.
The Nether Sect’s disciples were thoroughly shocked by this sight. The shining golden avatar was extremely intimidating.
Bzzt! Bzzt Bzzt!
Yu Shangrong’s Longevity Sword vibrated intensely. With a calm expression on his face, he shot toward the horizon, appearing in front of his avatar.
An awe-inspiring scene unfolded before everyone’s watchful eyes.
The avatar’s arms seemed to be moving.
The Nether Sect’s disciples were confused. They had never seen nor heard about avatars with moving body parts.
The Longevity Sword was wrapped by a powerful energy, and a massive energy blade appeared. The avatar held the energy blade between its hands.
“This is my original sword skill, merging my avatar and my sword... Hm, I haven’t thought of a name for it yet.”
Swoosh!
The avatar brought its arms down. The huge energy blade slashed at Zhang Yuanshan.
At the critical juncture, Zhang Yuanshan swung the rope in his hand, lifting the corpse up. He had used the corpsed against the energy blade!
All of a sudden, the withered corpse suddenly opened its eyes, and powerful energy surged out of it. Meanwhile, a black avatar in an upside-down position clashed with the energy blade.
Boom!
One of the Nether Sect’s disciples on the green jade altar exclaimed, “Fiend Zen!”
However, this was clearly more than just Fiend Zen.
Yu Shangrong frowned as he retreated with his avatar. ‘He knows how to defend himself using his Golden Lotus?’ It seemed like he had been too careless. Zhang Yuanshan had copied his move. As he retreated, he saw the corpse’s eyes were still open and it had joined its palm together.
“Die!” Zhang Yuanshan cried out. This was his second chance!
The black avatar flew out swiftly with the lotus in tow.
Nobody had ever witnessed such a technique before. Where could they have seen someone battling by tying a corpse to the end of the rope and to use it as a weapon?
“Don’t. Disregard. Me,” Zhang Yuanshan said stiltedly as he stomped his feet, shooting up into the air like a fired arrow. The corpse flew along with him. Along with the avatar, they formed a vertical formation.
“Mister Second!” the Nether Sect’s disciples cried out in worry.
Yu Shangrong was sent flying back at an extremely fast speed. In just an instant, his figure could no longer be seen from the green jade altar.
Zhang Yuanshan’s arms turned black. The black energy and Kong Yuan’s corpse launched wave after wave of attacks.
Zhang Yuanshan’s throat made some gurgling noise. It seemed like he was... laughing. Three beams of energy were enough to shatter Yu Shangrong’s avatar.
At this moment, a voice rang out. “Second Senior Brother!”
Then, a body of water fell from the skies like a waterfall and rained down on Yu Shangrong’s Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar.
The beams of energy landed on the incredible body of water. Above the falling water, a female avatar could be seen. It was like an ice goddess as it radiated with energy. The Amorous Hoop could be seen dancing in the body of water.
Within 1,000 meters, all the buildings were completely destroyed in just a moment.
“Blue Waves Technique? Sixth Junior Sister?” Yu Shangrong looked up. He glanced at her before he said forcefully, “Stand back!” He had already regained his footing at this time. He shot toward the opposite direction. His avatar had disappeared.
Zhang Yuanshan had a murderous expression on his face as he said in his creepy voice, “Curs.. curse you!”
The newcomer was none other than Ye Tianxin. She had done everything she could to block the attack from Kong Yuan’s corpse. However, there was still Zhang Yuanshan to contend with.
Zhang Yuanshan’s arms grew bigger and his muscles bulged. “The... third... chance... Everyone. Must... die!”
Ye Tianxin recalled her Amorous Hoop. She took Yu Shangrong’s advice and swiftly retreated with her avatar.
“Second Senior Brother, he has a grand shaman supporting him... The Enter and Return Three Souls should be able to deal with it.” As Ye Tianxin projected her voice to Yu Shangrong, she felt an energy closing in on her. Suddenly, she discovered that not only Zhang Yuanshan’s arms grew bigger, but it seemed like he had grown tentacles. Some of the tentacles were already upon her!
