Chapter 264 Breakthrough
Back in their former training ground, Fu Le and Jing Liu's sword duel begins once again.

Both Fu Le and Jing Liu, who were aware of their own condition, fought without holding back, unleashing their full strength in this battle.

Therefore, although the battle was intense, it was not an aesthetically pleasing one.

With swordsmanship alone, a fully-fledged Jingliu could completely overwhelm Fule.

Moreover, Jingliu herself is also growing. After learning about swordsmanship concepts from other worlds, she has also learned a lot.

Therefore, Fu Le found it extremely difficult to resist Jing Liu.

If he hadn't relied on his immortality to withstand the attack, Jingliu would probably have defeated him in just a few rounds.

But thanks to his immortality, Fu Le withstood the attack.

Then, he used the Mirror Style swordsmanship as pressure, hoping to break through under such pressure.

This was Fu Le's purpose.

The battle lasted for several days, and those days were the process of Fu Le's transformation.

Under the immense pressure of the Mirror School, Fu Le both imitated the Mirror School's swordsmanship and perfected his own.

Then comes continuous improvement, improvement, and more improvement.

By constantly refining his swordsmanship through 'death,' Fu Le has concentrated all his understanding of the sword into one.

It then continued to evolve, grow, and surpass itself.

The artistic conception that Fu Le once mastered was 'flying light'.

That represents speed, one of the seven aspects of the Emperor's Bow and Fate.

Using this artistic conception as a framework, Fu Le continuously refines his own flesh and blood in the way of the sword, or rather, in all martial arts.

"Faster, faster, even faster."

"Accelerate, accelerate again, keep accelerating."

Fu Le kept repeating these words in his mind, urging himself on.

Fu Le walked firmly on this path.

Gradually, Fu Le could feel everything around him slowing down.

Fu Le finally took that step.

Fast and slow are relative terms.

When Fu Le's speed becomes unimaginably fast, objects relative to him will appear slow.

In short, the flow of time is slowing down.

Thus, Fu Le, who had been unable to withstand the full power of the Mirror Flow, blocked one of her fatal stabs.

That was no ordinary parry.

Rather, it is a collision in a space where the flow of time is completely different.

At this moment, the two finally stood on the same level, in the same dimension.

Although Jingliu is going further than him in this realm, the kind of crushing dominance between them is no longer possible.

"Let's begin the second battle!"

Having just entered a new realm, Fu Le, who was extremely excited, shouted to Jing Liu.

In response, Jingliu merely raised the corners of his mouth.

Although she gave it her all just now, that was all she did.

But at this moment, Fu Le's provocation and her own excitement at seeing Fu Le's breakthrough ignited her fighting spirit.

"bring it on!"

Without further ado, Jingliu immediately swung his sword and slashed at the enemy.

She was even more formidable than before.

"Well done!"

Fu Le was not afraid at all, and he went straight to meet him.

"Hahaha."

"I won this time!"

Fu Le sat on the ground without any regard for his image, panting heavily.

Opposite him, Jingliu was lying on the ground, breathing softly.

Although Fu Le still lagged behind Jing Liu after his swordsmanship breakthrough, he would immediately start another challenge after each defeat, and the two would continue fighting. With each battle, Fu Le's strength grew, making it increasingly difficult for Jing Liu to defeat him.

Finally, after countless failures, Fu Le won a game.

Although this victory was due to Kagami's exhaustion.

Exhaustion is an extremely unfamiliar term for powerhouses like Fu Le and his group.

But it was precisely this that became the key to Fu Le's victory.

This shows how long the two fought.

Although the victory was not honorable, Fu Le was still very happy.

He can turn the tide by exhausting Kagami's stamina, something others can't do even if they wanted to.

Mirror Flow actually thinks so too.

She wasn't angry about her defeat and wanted to continue.

Lying on the ground, panting, she looked at Fu Le, who was smiling brightly beside her, and felt nothing but approval.

If her previous acceptance of Fu Le stemmed from Elio's prophecy and Ruan Mei's promise, her current acceptance of Fu Le comes from her recognition of Fu Le himself.

Fu Le's growth rate is simply too fast.

That was faster than she could have imagined.

Such talent, coupled with the grand stage of another world.

"Perhaps one day he really will be able to cut down 'Fertility'!"

Jingliu thought to himself.

"You won."

A hint of joy was evident in Jingliu's tone.

This surprised Fu Le.

After all, in his impression, Jingliu should be the kind of person who would never give up no matter how many setbacks he experienced.

He didn't expect that Jingliu would admit defeat after only losing this one time.

This made his eyes look extremely strange.

"What? Weren't you just confidently saying you won? Why are you less happy now that I admit you won?"

Jingliu slowly sat up.

She asked Fu Le with a light laugh.

The chuckled Jingliu was unlike any other Jingliu.

Jingliu is usually serious and doesn't smile.

Although Jingliu was no longer as eccentric and murderous as before after Fu Le removed the effects of her demonic body, she became much more relaxed.

But that doesn't mean she likes to laugh.

Jingliu doesn't like to smile, or rather, she doesn't like to express her inner emotions.

She survived the destruction of the Cangcheng Immortal Ship in her childhood and was sent to the Luofu Immortal Ship. From then on, she always held the will of revenge in her heart.

So she took up her sword and joined the Cloud Cavalry, unleashing her hatred in constant battles against the bountiful people.

This upbringing made her feel extremely repressed.

So much so that even Jing Yuan, her apprentice, never truly entered her heart.

After all, Jingyuan was a rational person. He thought too much before doing anything, and Jingliu was his master, which made him afraid to do anything.

Only those with an unconventional style can influence the Kagami-ryu.

For example, Bai Heng.

Dan Heng's past life, Dan Feng, and Ren's former star were also influenced by Bai Heng.

Therefore, the most core figure of the once famous Five Heroes of the Clouds was neither the most intelligent Jing Yuan, nor the strongest Jing Liu, nor the most noble Dan Feng, nor the most skilled in production Ying Xing.

Instead, it was Bai Heng, who didn't seem particularly outstanding.

Therefore, her death led to the disbandment of the Five Heroes of the Clouds.

At this time, Fu Le also became another person who could influence Jing Liu.
