I cultivate the Chaos Technique

Fang Xue stood opposite Zhang Yifan. Although she had suppressed her cultivation to the early stage of Foundation Establishment, her aura was still not to be underestimated.

The longsword in her hand was pure white, with ice and snow patterns carved on its blade, emanating a chilling aura. This sword was named "Frost Sword," perfectly complementing her ice-attribute sword technique, "Frost Sword Shadow." With each swing of the sword, it seemed to freeze the air, plunging her enemies into endless cold.

"Junior Brother Zhang, be careful!" Fang Xue smiled slightly, her eyes filled with a hint of mockery.

Although she suppressed her cultivation level, she had absolute confidence in her swordsmanship, especially when facing Zhang Yifan, who was still in the Foundation Establishment stage, she appeared even more relaxed.

Zhang Yifan didn't respond, but stared at Fang Xue with a serious expression, secretly gathering his strength. He knew that although Fang Xue appeared relaxed, it didn't mean she was careless.

Senior Sister's swordsmanship is exquisite; any underestimation will lead to defeat.

Before she could finish speaking, Fang Xue had already drawn her sword. Her figure swept towards Zhang Yifan like a cold wind, the Frost Sword in her hand flashing with a chilling light. With a thrust, a cold sword aura instantly condensed in the air.

The sword energy rapidly split in mid-air, transforming into several afterimages, like frost dancing in the air, aiming directly at Zhang Yifan's vital points. This was the first move of "Frosty Sword Shadow"—"Ice Shadow Slash".

Zhang Yifan felt the chill coming towards him and immediately activated the Profound Clarity Sword Technique. He raised the Heavenly Profound Spirit Sword high, condensing sword energy at the tip. As the sword technique was activated, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth rapidly gathered into his body, transforming into streams of clear, water-like sword intent.

He suddenly swung his sword, and a sharp sword aura rose into the wind, as if to cleave the sky. This was the first move of the "Mysterious Clear Sword Technique"—"Clear Wind Breaks the Clouds".

The sword energy of "Qingfeng Poyun" roared out like a gale, carrying boundless sharpness, and collided fiercely with Fang Xue's "Bingying Zhan" in mid-air.

The two sword energies collided, stirring up a violent fluctuation of spiritual energy, as if the surrounding air had been frozen.

The sword energies intertwined, emitting a deafening roar that caused the ground of the training ground to tremble slightly.

Fang Xue raised an eyebrow slightly, not expecting that Zhang Yifan's sword energy could actually contend with her Ice Shadow Sword Energy. But she did not stop. She stomped her foot suddenly, and the Frost Sword drew an elegant arc in the air. With flashes of sword light, she quickly changed her sword moves.

The Frost Sword seemed to come alive, constantly shifting in her hands, its sword energy sweeping out like an icy blizzard. This was the second move of "Frost Sword Shadow"—"Snow Dance Gale".

The sword technique "Snow Dance in the Gale" is ever-changing, with sword energy as swift as wind and snow, attacking Zhang Yifan layer upon layer at an unpredictable speed.

Fang Xue's figure also became illusory and unpredictable as she used her swordsmanship, as if she had merged with the sword energy, making it impossible for anyone to discern her true location.

Zhang Yifan's heart tightened. Facing the oncoming storm of sword energy, he dared not be careless in the slightest.

He quickly changed his sword moves, and the Heavenly Profound Spirit Sword unleashed clear sword light in the air, attempting to block Fang Xue's attack.

However, Fang Xue's sword energy was too fast. Although Zhang Yifan blocked most of the attacks, a few sword energies still passed through the gaps in his defense, tearing his robes and bringing a chill.

Zhang Yifan knew that if he continued to play defensively, he would only fall into an even greater disadvantage.

He took a deep breath, forcibly calming his mind and concentrating his true energy to its limit. He then exerted force with his feet, rapidly retreating to increase the distance between himself and Fang Xue. Immediately afterward, he spun around rapidly in mid-air, raising the Heavenly Profound Spirit Sword high once more. Sword energy surged around him, seemingly converging into a sea of ​​swords.

This time, Zhang Yifan used the second move of the "Mysterious Clear Sword Technique" - "Azure Dragon Emerging from the Sea".

This sword strike was as fierce as a dragon emerging from the sea, its sword energy drawing a dazzling arc in the air. The sword intent was extremely sharp, sweeping towards Fang Xue with an unstoppable momentum.

The sword energy, like a dragon, roared and charged towards Fang Xue, its momentum so strong that it seemed to tear apart all forces in its path.

A hint of admiration flashed in Fang Xue's eyes; she could feel the powerful will within Zhang Yifan's sword strike.

However, she did not panic. Instead, she calmly held the Frost Sword horizontally in front of her, rapidly circulating her true energy and concentrating her sword intent on the tip of the sword. Frosty energy surged out like a tide, instantly forming a thick ice wall.

"Frozen for Thousands of Miles!" Fang Xue shouted. This was the third move of "Frosty Sword Shadow," and also the most defensive one. The ice wall unleashed by the Frost Sword was like an indestructible ice barrier, forcefully blocking Zhang Yifan's sword energy.

The two powerful forces collided again, producing a deafening roar, with ice shards flying everywhere and sword energy crisscrossing, creating an extremely shocking scene.

Although Zhang Yifan's "Azure Dragon Emerging from the Sea" sword energy was powerful, it was still blocked by Fang Xue's "Ice Seal Ten Thousand Miles," failing to completely break through her defense. He knew that Fang Xue's strength far surpassed his own, and if he couldn't achieve a surprise victory, it would be difficult to gain the upper hand in a direct confrontation.

Just then, Zhang Yifan had a sudden thought and decided to try to integrate the Thunder Heaven-Splitting Sword technique he had just mastered.

Although he wasn't yet fully proficient in this sword technique, he had no other choice at this moment. In a flash, the Heavenly Profound Spirit Sword in Zhang Yifan's hand suddenly trembled, its sword energy transforming into the power of thunder, and a bolt of lightning burst forth from the tip of the sword.

"Thunderous Sky-Splitting!" Zhang Yifan shouted, his sword energy transforming into thunder, carrying boundless lightning power, instantly piercing through Fang Xue's ice wall and heading straight for her face.

Fang Xue was slightly surprised, clearly not expecting Zhang Yifan to be able to unleash such a swift attack.

She retreated quickly, and at the same time, she changed her sword stance, unleashing another icy sword aura in an attempt to block the thunderous sword.

However, the lightning was extremely fast. Although Fang Xue reacted in time, a trace of the lightning's power still broke through her defenses, leaving a tiny wound on her shoulder.

Fang Xue stopped and glanced at the wound on her shoulder. Although it wasn't serious, a hint of surprise and admiration appeared in her eyes. Zhang Yifan's attack, while failing to defeat her, had demonstrated potential beyond her expectations.

"Junior Brother Zhang, not bad!" Fang Xue smiled, her eyes full of admiration, but she did not continue to attack. Instead, she slowly sheathed her sword and nodded, "Let's stop here for today. Your progress has surprised me."

Zhang Yifan breathed slightly, sheathed his sword, and his mind was filled with thoughts about the battle.

Although he failed to gain the upper hand in this duel, injuring Senior Sister Fang Xue was already a great encouragement. He knew that his path of cultivation was still long, but today's battle gave him a deeper understanding and confidence in his own strength.

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Sister Fang Xue." Zhang Yifan clasped his hands in thanks.
