Genshin Impact: Demon God of Shura

"Thank you, Morax."

Seeing that Morax had agreed, Lan Tian smiled and thanked Morax.

"Hehe... It's alright. Appropriate sparring is beneficial to both of our martial arts skills. It not only helps us become familiar with each other's attack methods, but also helps each other find their own flaws."

Morax chuckled, then stood up and continued:

"Old friend, have you decided where we should spar? If we go too close to here, it might cause unnecessary harm to the people in our territory."

joke!

The aftershocks from the battle between demons alone could shatter an ordinary person's body just by watching from a distance. If they were to fight at such close range, what would happen?

“If it’s a friendly spar, then let’s stop here. In my opinion, why don’t we head to the border between our territory and the territory of the Dust Demon God Hargentus? When I flew here on my sword before, I noticed there was a large uninhabited area there, which should be just enough for the two of us to show off our skills.”

Lan Tian also stood up and said.

When Blue Sky chatted with Morax before, he also inquired about the situation of the nearby demons, including the dust demon, Hargentus.

Isn't this Morax's important future friend—Gui Zhong?

“Yes. But that Dust Demon God Hargentus…”

Morax clearly had some concerns.

"Don't worry, Morax. There's a reason why I suggested going there for a sparring match. Judging from your description of the Dust Demon God, he's very likely a demon god who doesn't like fighting. I've also observed that Dust Demon God with my divine sense before, and he's very likely not a demon god like us with powerful martial arts."

Seeing that Morax still seemed a little hesitant, Blue Sky pressed his advantage, saying:

"Don't worry, Morax. Besides, I helped protect her territory when I was fighting the Sandstorm Demon, so she still owes me a favor."

Blue Sky even cracked a joke at the end, which dispelled Morax's last bit of concern.

"Hehe... That's excellent. Let's go, old friend."

"I can't ask for it."

As soon as they finished speaking, the two transformed into two beams of light, one yellow and one blue, and left the place at lightning speed.

After Morax and Blue Sky left, several citizens who were hiding behind the bushes nearby immediately emerged and ran excitedly toward the center of their territory, bringing with them the news that Lord Shura was going to spar with Lord Rock God.

Morax and Blue Sky were aware of all this, but they tacitly refrained from exposing each other's true intentions, since these were their own people and wouldn't harm them.

Ten minutes later.

On an open ground, Blue Sky, clad in rave armor, and Morax, dressed in divine attire, faced each other, weapons in hand.

But rather than a standoff, it was more like a reunion between long-lost friends, because there was no tension at all.

"Come on, Morax. Let me see your marksmanship!"

Blue Sky shouted toward Morax with a fighting spirit.

"Hehe...Let me see the martial arts skills you've honed over the years, my old friend, but..."

As he spoke, Morax glanced in one direction.

"Don't worry, I'm here."

Seeing that Morax had also noticed, Blue Sky smiled and said he would take action, then closed his eyes.

On a hillside to their 2 o'clock position, a dense crowd was watching them intently.

These were naturally the people of Blue Sky and Morax who wanted to come and watch in person after learning that Lord Shura was going to spar with Lord Rock God, including those few Yakshas.

But just as everyone was eagerly anticipating what was to come, Lan Tian's gentle yet somewhat helpless voice rang in their ears:

"You lot, the battles between gods are not something you commoners can participate in casually; it's very dangerous."

Upon hearing that it was Lord Shura's voice, everyone fell silent for a moment, and then awkward expressions appeared on their faces.

After all, he had come secretly to see his two gods, and being caught red-handed by the person in question made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"Hehe... Don't worry, Morax and I have no intention of blaming you. Now you just need to stay in the barrier I've built for you. After all, if we accidentally caused any of you to lose an arm or a leg, Morax and I would feel guilty for the rest of our lives."

Seeing the awkward expressions on everyone's faces, Lan Tian couldn't help but chuckle. Then, half-jokingly, he comforted everyone while creating a semi-transparent barrier to protect them.

"Don't come out, or you lovely people will be the ones to get hurt next."

After leaving behind a final joking remark, Lan Tian's voice disappeared from everyone's ears, and everyone obeyed Lan Tian's words, obediently staying inside the barrier to watch the show.

Let's turn our attention back to the blue sky and Morax.

Blue Sky opened his eyes and shouted at Morax:

"All done, Morax."

"So good."

After they finished speaking, neither of them spoke again, but simply looked at each other quietly. The only sounds in the room were the occasional whistling of the breeze and the rustling of their robes in the wind.

Suddenly, as if by telepathy, the two nodded to each other simultaneously, and then their figures flashed and they began to spar.

clang!clang!clang!

The air was filled with the sounds of fierce collisions between cold weapons, sparks from the friction, and terrifying shockwaves.

In just over ten seconds, the two had exchanged hundreds of blows.

The result was that they were evenly matched.

The two appeared briefly, then flashed and collided again.

“Old friend, I can see that although your swordsmanship has some flaws, every move is swift, ruthless and deadly. To be able to fight me to this extent, you are quite capable.”

Morax, while wielding his Rainbow Spear to deflect the blue sky's strikes, commented with considerable admiration.

"You flatter me, Morax. Your marksmanship is superb, and you can even handle my extremely swift swordsmanship with ease, which is truly amazing."

Blue Sky, while rapidly wielding two Oaths of Purity, also affirmed Morax's marksmanship.

Both of them went all out, but it was a simple contest of their own martial arts skills, without using any elemental power; it was just a simple sparring match with cold weapons.

Soon, an hour passed.

The two figures flashed and clashed again, but this time the outcome was somewhat different.

Clang! Clang! Ring!

After a flash, the two figures separated again, but one of them looked rather disheveled.

That's the blue sky.

Now, Lantian has donned the Shura Nuo mask, but he can only kneel on one knee, barely supporting his body with the only remaining Pure Water Oath in his right hand to prevent himself from collapsing.

Several parts of his armor were severely damaged, and many pieces of armor showed marks left by gunshots.

The Oath of Purity in his left hand had been knocked away by Morax's Rainbow Spear half an hour earlier, and stuck straight into the ground behind Morax.

But Blue Sky, relying on the only remaining weapon he had, the Oath of Pure Water, and his own formidable fighting skills, once again battled Morax for half an hour, proving himself to be a remarkable war god.

Keep in mind that Morax used all his strength.

But Lan Tian was not injured; he was just exhausted.

Morax only had a few minor marks on his divine armor left by Blue Sky's blades or fist attacks, but he was not injured as a result.

It's not a life-or-death duel, there's no need to hurt the other person.

The people on the distant hillside were also ignited by the battle between the two, raising their hands excitedly and cheering, constantly shouting how exhilarating it was, as if only by doing so could they express their excitement.

"Huff... Morax... I've learned a lot... Huff! It seems... my martial arts skills... are still inferior to yours... Huff..."

Although Lan Tian was panting heavily, he still took off the Shura Nuo mask, stood up straight, and looked Morax in the eye.

Both of them had faint smiles on their faces at that moment.
