After being reborn, all I want to do is run away.

Chapter 50 The Spirit of Indomitable Will

On the central battle platform of Fengming Terrace, Shen Xu and Chen Kaijia stood facing each other.

"Junior Brother Shen, your Five Waves technique is strong, but it's still not enough to deal with me. I know you have another very powerful move called Mirror Flower Water Moon. I wonder if I would have the honor of experiencing it?" Chen Kaijia said excitedly.

"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint Senior Brother Chen. Against your defense, that move won't be very effective," Shen Xu said, shaking his head.

He didn't lie to Chen Kaijia. The Mirror Flower Water Moon technique was not suitable for dealing with someone like Chen Kaijia who was good at defense. No matter how many water swords there were, they were useless if they couldn't break through his defense.

Of course, quantitative change in anything will lead to qualitative change. If the water sword could keep attacking, or if the water sword became sharp enough, it could definitely turn Chen Kaijia into a sieve. However, his understanding of the meaning of water and his limited reserves of vital energy were not enough to support him to do so.

However, if he could use the Blood Mist Sword Technique, he would like to test whether the Blood Sword could break through Chen Kaijia's defense, but unfortunately he cannot use it here.

"That's a pity. It seems that Junior Brother Shen can only go this far today." Chen Kaijia drew the greatsword from behind him.

"The matter is not over yet, and the outcome is still unknown. Perhaps this is the last place you can go for Senior Brother Chen today!" Shen Xu also drew his long sword, and white energy gradually wrapped around the blade.

"Haha, let's see who stands here until the end!" After saying that, Chen Kaijia dragged his giant sword and slashed at Shen Xu.

Shen Xu used the Soaring Dragon Body technique to maintain his distance from Chen Kaijia, while white waves surged on his sword, leaving graceful trails on the battle stage as he dodged.

"This must be the first time Shen Xu has been forced into such a sorry state!"

"How can a reasonable dodge be considered disheveled? Stacking waves doesn't take time!"

"But is he really going to use the Five Waves technique to directly confront Chen Kaijia's defense?"

"That seems to be the case, but I'm not very optimistic about him."

As the white waves emanating from Shen Xujian's body grew increasingly intense, everyone present couldn't help but focus their attention. They knew that Shen Xujian was about to unleash his fifth wave, and they were all eager to see whether Shen Xujian's fifth wave would be overwhelming or Chen Kaijia's defense would remain unshaken!

Seeing that Shen Xu's five waves were about to be completed, Chen Kaijia gradually gave up his attack on him.

All the onlookers saw was Chen Kaijia, holding the giant sword, standing steadily in the center of the battle arena like a mountain, his muscles bulging, as if endless power was surging within him.

A faint, earthy yellow light gently covered his entire body, making him look as if he were carved from incredibly hard mountain rocks, indestructible.

At the same time, an indomitable will emanated from his body, like a majestic mountain that, despite countless hardships, always stands tall on the vast earth.

This aura immediately filled the disciples with boundless admiration for Chen Kaijia on the stage. Deep in their hearts, they couldn't help but think: no matter how many difficulties they faced, Chen Kaijia would never fall, because he was an invincible warrior forged by an indomitable will.

The elders, sensing this indomitable spirit, were so awestruck that they could hardly contain their excitement, their smiles impossible to hide.

"It is an indomitable spirit born from the spirit of the mountain. Chen Kaijia's future achievements are probably limitless!" Wang Yuanyue couldn't help but stand up slightly and exclaim in amazement.

"Sect Leader, this is a sign of the heavens revitalizing our sect!"

"Chen Feng, you're really good at hiding things! You didn't even tell us that such a genius had appeared in your family!"

"I just found out too." Chen Feng was also a little confused looking at the somewhat unfamiliar Chen Kaijia. But now he could only sigh that this kid was really good at hiding things.

"Since you've already accepted Qiqi as your disciple, why not take on another one?" an elder suggested.

“That’s not appropriate. I’ve already accepted Qiqi as my last disciple, how can I go back on my word? It would be better to hand this child over to the Grand Elder,” Song Qi refused.

"The Grand Elder is quite good too!" everyone laughed and echoed.

Among the crowd, only Yang Qiqi looked at Shen Xu on the stage with a hint of worry on her face.

Shen Xu, who was the first to sense this indomitable spirit, immediately felt uneasy. His trump card was two five-wave attacks, but the appearance of this indomitable spirit made him feel that even if he played the second five-wave attack, he would still be unable to do anything to Chen Kaijia. He had encountered a type that could counter all his trump cards.

If Shen Xu encountered such an enemy outside, he could simply ignore him, but on the battle stage, he had to directly break through Chen Kaijia's defenses.

"I have no choice but to try that move!" Shen Xu calmed himself down and made up his mind.

Now that Chen Kaijia has stopped attacking him, he has the means to unleash that move. However, once he does, he will be completely exhausted, and if he fails to defeat Chen Kaijia by then, he will definitely lose the duel.

But he had no choice. Chen Kaijia could play it safe, but he couldn't. If he was going to win, he had to win spectacularly.

While almost everyone was immersed in the shock brought by Chen Kaijia's indomitable spirit, only a few people keenly noticed something unusual—the white waves on the blade of Shen Xu's longsword became increasingly dense. The original five waves on his sword had unknowingly increased to six, and then quickly became seven, eight...

Shen Xu's figure was gradually enveloped by a thick white mist, and even the entire battle stage was shrouded in a thin layer of mist.

"What is Shen Xu trying to do?"

"I heard he also has an illusion sword technique hidden in the mist. I wonder if he's going to use that one?"

"I think that given Chen Kaijia's current state, nothing Shen Xu can do will make a difference. I estimate that only an inner disciple could break through his defenses. Although Shen Xu is already incredibly talented, there's always someone better, and there's nothing we can do about that."

Shen Xu on the stage was completely shrouded in a thick, almost dripping white fog. From the outside, all that could be seen was a vast expanse of white, and the scene inside the fog was completely obscured.

At this moment, he was completely oblivious to the opinions of others; all his attention was focused on his sword, or more precisely, on the ten white waves that were undulating slightly.

Shen Xu took a deep breath and instantly unleashed the "Layered Waves" technique.

In an instant, the five white waves that were originally separated at the front of the sword rapidly converged and condensed into a surging five-layered wave at an astonishing speed.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Xu swung his long sword without hesitation. Accompanied by a clear sword sound that resounded throughout the entire arena, a five-fold wave carrying the force of thunder and lightning rushed towards Chen Kaijia opposite him with lightning speed!

At the same time, Chen Kaijia, who had been on high alert, also keenly sensed that the powerful aura brought by Shen Xu's five-fold wave was rapidly approaching him.

He dared not be negligent in the slightest, and immediately circulated his internal energy to the fullest extent, continuously pouring it into the key parts of his meridians.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Kaijia's body was no longer in an earthy yellow tone, but instead was covered with a dazzling golden light, as if his whole body was cast from gold and iron, exuding unparalleled majesty and domineering aura!

But what Shen Xu needs to do is not just a simple five-wave formation.

Just as the five waves completely detached from the sword, Shen Xu unleashed another wave attack without hesitation. A flash of light appeared on his sword, and the other five white waves on its surface instantly coalesced into another five-wave attack.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Xu's figure blurred, and his sword slashed out like lightning. The newly formed five waves, with unparalleled power and speed, crashed into the five waves that had not yet moved away from him before.

"Bang!!" A loud bang suddenly rang out, as if the entire Fengming Platform trembled, startling everyone present.

Then, they saw a colossal wave appear out of nowhere, like an enraged dragon, roaring and howling as it violently charged towards Chen Kaijia's location. The wave swept away everything around it, devastating the areas of the battle arena not covered by the array patterns.

At this moment, Chen Kaijia, who was closest to this terrifying giant wave, felt its suffocating momentum and domineering power most deeply, as if the might of heaven had descended, making him waver in his mind.

He knew he couldn't withstand such a heavenly attack; if he tried to meet the giant wave head-on, he would likely only face certain death.

Should he run? There's no way he can escape! What should he do? Chen Kaijia's indomitable spirit was waning; he was wavering, he was questioning himself.

"No, absolutely not! I cannot give up! My ambition is not yet fulfilled, I have not yet reached that place! I must win!!"

Chen Kaijia roared inwardly, as if gathering all his strength into one. In an instant, his indomitable will burned like a raging fire, growing ever stronger.

At this moment, he stared firmly at the towering wave rushing towards him, his eyes showing no fear.

Just as the giant wave was about to touch Chen Kaijia, a streak of azure light pierced the sky and flashed to the front of the wave. The newcomer casually extended a finger and pointed, and the seemingly invincible, towering wave instantly turned into countless water vapors, dissipating like smoke and clouds between the Wind-Sounding Platform.

This sudden turn of events stunned everyone present. For a moment, a damp mist filled the entire platform, accompanied by a cool breeze that brought an unprecedented sense of refreshment.

"Shen Xu wins this battle!" Song Qi's majestic voice resounded throughout the entire Wind Howling Platform. After speaking, he transformed into a long rainbow and returned to the suspended platform.

Upon hearing these words, Chen Kaijia collapsed onto the battle stage, the indomitable spirit he had just unleashed having consumed too much of his soul power.

Shen Xu looked at Chen Kaijia lying in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

He certainly sensed Chen Kaijia's final burst of indomitable spirit, which shone like a bright star even amidst his raging waves.

Moreover, in a situation where there was no chance of survival, Chen Kaijia was able to make the decision to face the giant waves head-on, demonstrating what true resilience is!
