Luck taken away? It doesn't matter, I quietly become a god

At the summit of Misty Mountain, the air was thick with the clash of swords and their energies.

Facing Jiu Xiao, the strongest student in the academy in this generation, Rong Shu didn't waste any words and grasped the Wind and Fire Elephant Blade in his hand.

With a swift slash of his sword!

It was a crescent moon that tore through the sky and slashed down!

[The First Strike of the Nameless Sword Technique: Breaking the Sky Mountain]

On the other side, Jiu Xiao did not draw her sword. Instead, she simply picked up an ordinary tree branch and casually swung her sword, thus dissolving the powerful blade energy.

As Rong Shu's two swords clashed, wind, fire, and spiritual energy erupted simultaneously, like two dragons emerging from the sea, shaking the heavens and the earth.

A fine, dense drizzle began to fall from the horizon. The seemingly harmless raindrops, upon hitting the ground, shattered pebbles and crushed flowers and grass...

Every drop of rain contains a wisp of sword energy.

Rong Shu took a step forward, and the next second her figure disappeared into the rain, leaving not even a trace.

It leaves no trace when it treads the wind, and breaks through the water without leaving a gap.

[The initial mudra of the Nine Syllable Mantra - Mayfly Step]

"Hmm? Movement technique? Supernatural power?" A slight fluctuation appeared in Jiuxiao's eyes.

But that's about it.

She swung her sword to the left!

Suddenly, a shadow appeared beneath the rain.

"Your supernatural abilities are remarkable, but unfortunately you haven't mastered them yet. It's inevitable that geese will leave traces as they fly by, but to think of using the rain to conceal yourself is both clever and foolish."

While rain can obscure shadows, it can also reveal one's whereabouts.

At least in the eyes of a powerful figure like Jiuxiao, it cannot be hidden.

"Your supernatural power is very unique. I imagine you must have another supernatural power to conceal the secrets of heaven. If you use them together, you will be invincible."

Jiuxiao's voice pierced through the rain and reached Rong Shu's ears, whose breathing was slightly disordered.

Her mind was racing.

Thinking of the array seal of the Nine True Words... that supernatural power should be the matching supernatural power technique that Jiuxiao mentioned.

Upon realizing he had been discovered, Rong Shu quickly changed his sword technique.

Replace the Fire Elephant Blade with the Ice Elephant Blade.

With a single swing of the blade, a thousand waves of energy surged forth!

As the layers of sword energy passed by, the ground crumbled and even the sound of the wind was torn apart!

[Nameless Sword Technique, Third Strike: The Sea is Wide Enough for Fish to Leap]

The wind and waves roared, carrying an overwhelming force.

With a flick of his wrist, Jiu Xiao sent a few leaves fluttering down as he swung the branch out again.

The tip of the branch touched the center of the storm.

Take point arrancar.

In the blink of an eye, the enormous waves were pierced through by an invisible hand and vanished without a trace.

Jiuxiao said, "The True Martial Alliance of Military Strategists gathers all kinds of weapons from all over the world. The first leader of the True Martial Alliance was also a master of the sword."

"But before he entered the Dao, he was just an ordinary pig butcher."

"The sword techniques summarized by the first leader of the alliance, no matter how varied they may be, all boil down to swinging the sword, cutting down, and then swinging the sword again..."

There are only two types of swordsmanship.

"Firstly, it is bold and sweeping, capable of sweeping away thousands of troops and uprooting mountains."

"To unleash such power, you need a broadsword with a blade that is wide and long, about ten feet long. You have chosen a horizontal sword, and your swordsmanship is more inclined towards the second type. Like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, leaving half the tree intact, it requires speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness."

"Can your knife get any faster?" Jiuxiao challenged.

He remained silent, seemingly unresponsive.

The response from Jiuxiao was an even faster strike.

Jiuxiao remained calm, flicked his wrist, and the seemingly fragile tree branch in his hand, imbued with sword energy, easily pierced through the blade energy.

"Not fast enough."

"Faster!"

"Is this all you've got? It's not enough."

"..."

From the tree, Jiuyin, who was watching the battle, tilted his head and waved: "Little turtle, good luck! If you lose, you'll have to wait another sixty years before you can leave the mountain."

Rong Shu retreated several feet, her toes landing on the rock face. She turned her head, her eyes wide, and asked Jiu Yin, "Really?"

Jiuyin: "Of course it's... fake."

Rong Shu: "..."

Rong Shu turned back to look at Jiu Xiao again. The other party had only used a fragile branch, but she just couldn't cut it off.

It seems like it's just a little bit off.

In reality, the difference was vast, so vast that Rong Shu seemed truly unable to defeat the person before him.

"No! There must be a way!"

Both are at the Nascent Soul stage, Rong Shu refuses to believe he can't beat them!

Method……

What exactly is the solution...?

Something flashed through Rong Shu's mind so fast that she almost couldn't grasp it.

"Chief Jiuxiao has been pointing out my flaws, but what about herself? No one is perfect, and Jiuxiao must also have her weaknesses!"

Dual swords cannot break through the defense.

Rong Shu then switched to the Fire Feather Bow.

A blazing fire bow was revealed, like a phoenix about to take flight, its cry echoing through the sky.
