Fairy, please let me explain.

Chapter 769 The most familiar enemy

Cultivation is the cornerstone that determines victory or defeat among cultivators, but intelligence can undermine this foundation to a certain extent.

Since Xu Yuan had always been in the spotlight in the past, his magic was no longer a secret among the clan alliance. As one of his most commonly used magics, the clan alliance had invested a lot of manpower and resources to study its basis, but so far almost no one had been able to make a perfect counter.

The original Stepping Void Slash had a fatal weakness in that the direction of its landing point was fixed and could cause the person to be crushed. However, after Xu Yuan's improvement, its landing point could now be controlled by the mind.

To fight against him, even someone as strong as Wen Xinyun would spread his source energy in the air and wait for him to emerge into the world before counterattacking.

So,
The sudden teleportation of the four phantoms was a scene beyond the expectations of everyone present.

Including Xu Yuan.

Because it's synchronized.

wrong,

Rather than being synchronized, the Four Symbols Seal seemed to be even faster than him.

Unlike other cosmic arts, Stepping on the Void Slash was instantly activated without any interruption. It would make the caster disappear briefly from the world and then reappear. This period of time was extremely short, but it was real. The Four Symbols Seal had just appeared at the point where Stepping on the Void Slash landed, just before he disappeared from the world.

But what made the sect leaders who were watching the match feel regretful was that the Four Symbols Seal could not penetrate the Void Flash, and therefore even though Xu Yuan was caught off guard, he was not affected in the slightest by the suppressing effect of the Four Symbols Seal.

In a flash, Xu Yuan had already used the virtual flash to teleport again, but when he was about to counterattack, something he caught a glimpse of out of the corner of his eye made him even more surprised.

The four phantoms once again appeared around the point where he landed his Step into the Void Slash.

The golden-eyed girl's black hair fluttered in the violent wind of Qi Ji.

During the interval between the flashes, Xu Yuan's eyes were fixed on her flawless face, with a trace of unspeakable loneliness in his eyes.

Perhaps it was because they knew each other too well in the past, and in just this brief exchange, she surprised him even more than Wen Xinyun.

After all, Tian Yan had always been bullied by him in the past.

No matter how big the gap in cultivation was between him and her, Tian Yan had never defeated him and was completely defeated in every sense of the word.

This memory has become a habit ingrained in his bones, but at this moment it is suddenly shattered along with the murderous intent before the battle.

Because the girl in front of him was already the Holy Maiden of Jiantian Pavilion who was given the name 'Tian Yan', and was no longer the always impotent and furious girl in his memory.

Xu Yuan gradually suppressed the joking look in his eyes.

The fact that the four phantom images can teleport instantly should be a derivative of the mantra of "instant", and the predictive ability that seems to be able to foretell the future may be the Taoist essence possessed by Tian Yan.

He made several attempts to break free, and as expected, the Four Symbols' phantoms still appeared accurately at his landing point.

As a trapping technique, the Four Symbols Phantom is a continuous range technique. In order to avoid its suppressing effect, Xu Yuan must continuously perform virtual dodges. If he continues like this, this fight will become a boring war of attrition from the very beginning.

A war of attrition between Treading on the Void and the Instant Mantra.

If it were just him and Tian Yan at the scene, Xu Yuan wouldn't mind giving this washboard saint a little bit of her source energy shock, but the problem was that he still had to leave enough room to guard against Wen Xinyun and Luo Wei.

This cannot go on any longer.

As the thought flashed through his mind, Xu Yuan suddenly spoke:
"You really surprised me a lot."

Tian Yan looked down at the young man in blood-stained shirt surrounded by the four symbols. His golden eyes were ruthless and his voice was clear:

"Xu Changtian, you are not the only one in this world who is getting stronger. If you don't take it seriously, you will really die here."

Die here.
Looking at the cold murderous intent that seemed to be stated, Xu Yuan pulled up a smile at the corner of his lips, then lowered his eyes and remained silent.

The world was silent for a moment.
The four phantoms gradually pressed towards Xu Yuan.

Just when the trap was about to be completely solidified, Xu Yuan's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of her.

And this time,
The Four Symbols Seal did not teleport again.

Because the weakness of the Four Symbols Seal is that it does not distinguish between friend and foe.

Even if the caster is in it, the circulation of the source Qi will be suppressed, so Tian Yan cannot trap himself in it.

Xu Yuan leaned forward slightly to her ear, his blood-red pupils glancing at the girl's flawless profile.

Tian Yan's gorgeous golden eyes moved slightly. The two were very close, but they stared at each other without saying a word.

Time seemed to have fallen silent at this moment.

A rotating halo gradually formed in the girl's golden pupils.

A bloody blade quietly appeared in the young man's hand.

In silence, he whispered to her:

"Sorry."

next moment,
The light in her eyes spread.

at the same time,

The bloody blade is waving.

Countless ink-splashed sword marks bloomed in the sky, accompanied by enchanting blood, like a magnificent blooming flower of the other shore!
There is no clash of magic.

Because both of them were aiming directly at each other's body.

Xu Yuan simply used his body to withstand the magic. The piercing pain and the sight of blood and flesh splattering entered his brain.

Tian Yan is different from this monster.

The girl's body could not contain his enormous sword skills.

Countless slashing attacks came from all directions, and the girl's figure standing in the air was instantly knocked down, and her petite figure flew backwards towards the top of the mountain at a high speed!

But if you look closely, Tian Yan was not hurt at all, and even her holy white dress was not stained with a speck of dust.

A pair of golden eyes quickly captured the trajectory of the sword marks. Before each sword mark hit her body, it would be blocked by an invisible mirror. However, the overbearing force of the sword made her retreat continuously until she fell into a ruined palace hall on the top of Tianjian Peak!

But just as the smoke was about to rise, a white silk thread stretched out from where the dome of the hall had fallen, and like rolling waves, it rushed towards Xu Yuan against the ink-splashed sea of ​​swords, and suddenly tightened when it reached him!
Cut the sky!

This lightning-fast strike prevented most of the transcendental warriors present from reacting in time, but Xu Yuan, who was involved, saw it all clearly.

hum-

His body slightly tilted, and the Heaven-Slaying True Words brushed against his cheek, leaving a trail of blood, which was then healed by the Dao of Life in an instant.

But the next moment,
puff! !
The pure white silk thread that had already flown towards the sky suddenly teleported and passed over the neck of the young man in the blood-stained shirt without any warning!

Feeling the pain of his torn neck and the weakness of his life force constantly draining away, there was no sign of nervousness in Xu Yuan's eyes. After all, if his neck was cut he would die, so how could it be called an eternal night catastrophe?
The current scene just made him want to laugh.

Laugh at the impermanence of the world and the cycle of cause and effect.

The disappearance of the memory of the illusion of the goddess of charm made his attitude towards her almost cold-blooded and ruthless, but the situation now seemed to be just the opposite.

Fuck it.

However, facing Tian Yan, Xu Yuan did not have much time to feel sentimental.

If the halo in his pupils was the result of him deliberately resisting in order to exchange injuries for injuries, then the Heaven-Slaying Mantra just now was the result of his inability to dodge.

As an enemy, Tian Yan is tricky.

Because she knew him too well.

After thousands of days and nights of living together, no one in the world knows him better than this washboard saint.

And this one,

Naturally, this also includes the weaknesses of the magic.

The world is silent,

Tian Yan flew out from the damaged dome of the hall, his voice as clear as ever:
"Xu Yuan, have you forgotten that the Secret Art of Overlapping Patterns was a technique that I helped you develop in the Charming Goddess Illusion?"
