A passing traveler through the heavens

Chapter 211 The Battle of Grandmasters 4

The battlefield where Baihu and Ye Liuyun were located was now completely shrouded in thick smoke. The billowing smoke was like a thick curtain, completely obscuring everything on the battlefield.

People watched from a distance, and for a moment it was difficult to tell who had the upper hand and who was at a disadvantage in this fierce battle.

Meanwhile, in this hazy and chaotic scene, on the other side of the battlefield, the battle between Qinglong and Sigu Jian had already come to an end.

The duel between these two masters was truly breathtaking; their sword intent and saber intent clashed and intertwined, making it difficult to determine who was superior.

After a brief standoff, Qinglong's figure flashed, as swift as lightning across the night sky, and in the blink of an eye, he had already closed in on Si Gu Jian.

The massive cleaver in his hand, composed of the Fourteen Forms of the Great Ming Dynasty, gleamed with a chilling light. With a swing of his arm, it transformed into a sharp arc, stabbing straight toward Si Gu Jian's throat.

Faced with such a swift and deadly attack, Si Gu Jian remained calm and composed. His movements were light and elegant. With just a slight sidestep, he casually swung his iron sword and effortlessly neutralized the Azure Dragon's fierce offensive.

With that single swing, the sword wind howled, swirling up countless withered yellow leaves from the ground. These leaves danced and swirled in the air, instantly forming a natural barrier that blocked all of Azure Dragon's subsequent attacks.

Seeing this, Qinglong did not hesitate and immediately changed his moves.

He brandished his broadsword, the blade flashing continuously, like a torrential downpour, as he frantically attacked Si Gu Jian.

Each strike was so fierce and ruthless, carrying an indomitable momentum, clearly aiming to find a weakness in Si Gu Jian's defense through this storm of attacks.

Si Gu Jian's countermeasures were equally ingenious. His footwork was light and agile, and he skillfully dodged the Azure Dragon's relentless attacks with a unique and unconventional movement technique.

Moreover, whenever he finds an opening, Si Gu Jian will suddenly strike back with his sword.

Each of his sword strikes contained immense power and unfathomable sword intent, often forcing Qinglong to temporarily retreat and avoid his sharp edge.

Qinglong took a deep breath, and his true energy instantly flowed to his limbs and bones. He stomped on the ground and shot out like an arrow.

At the same time, he suddenly swung his long sword, and in an instant, the light of the sword flew like snowflakes, densely covering the area where Si Gu Jian was located.

The fierce blade strike created an illusion, as if countless incredibly sharp swords were simultaneously slashing fiercely at Si Gu Jian.

Despite the fierce attack, Si Gu Jian showed no fear. His eyes were wide open, and he exuded an unparalleled aura of power.

The already powerful and majestic sword intent erupted like a volcano, surging forth wildly. The iron sword in his hand seemed to transform into an ancient behemoth awakened, baring its fangs and claws as it pounced on the surging blades.

Si Gu Jian's swordsmanship is expansive and powerful, with each strike containing immense force.

His moves seemed simple and direct, but the variations they contained were endless. As he wielded his iron sword, streaks of sword energy roared out and clashed fiercely with the Azure Dragon's blade light.

A deafening roar erupted, and the surrounding air seemed to be torn apart by the violent collision, raising clouds of dust.

Just as the two sides were locked in a stalemate, Qinglong keenly seized a fleeting opportunity. He suddenly roared, and all the power in his body surged into the long sword in his hand like a tidal wave.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling blade of light shot into the sky from the blade, like a blazing sun shining overhead. This blade of light, carrying a world-destroying power, slashed down fiercely towards Si Gu Jian with lightning speed.

This strike embodies all of Qinglong's beliefs and his unwavering pursuit of fulfilling his mission.

He firmly believed that with this sword, he could overcome all obstacles and defeat powerful enemies. After seeing this astonishing sword strike, Si Gu Jian couldn't help but show a hint of admiration in his eyes.

But he did not back down; instead, he faced the challenge head-on.

He gripped the sword hilt with both hands, poured all his strength into the blade, and then swung it with all his might.

In an instant, it seemed as if only a sword shadow remained in the entire world.

This sword shadow was as fast as lightning and as swift as a meteor. Its speed had exceeded the comprehension of ordinary people. Moreover, the power contained in this sword was also unimaginably enormous, as if it could cut through everything in the world.

The knife and sword collided with a deafening roar in mid-air, like two bolts of lightning!

In an instant, the sound of metal clashing resounded through the sky, bursting forth with dazzling light, as if a brilliant star had exploded.

At the same time, an extremely violent airflow suddenly erupted, sweeping outwards from the two people as the core. Wherever it passed, whether it was boulders, trees or houses, it was all leveled by this powerful shockwave, leaving only a scene of utter devastation.

After the light gradually faded, people finally saw what was happening in the scene.

Qinglong and Sigu Jian stood steadily in place, but both of them had wounds of varying degrees.

However, despite Si Gu Jian's best efforts, Qinglong's combat power far surpassed his.

Just as the final, fatal blows collided, the vast, ocean-like true essence within the Azure Dragon's body surged forth, transforming into an unparalleled force that slammed fiercely into the blade of the Four-Looking Sword.

With a loud "bang," Si Gu Jian was sent flying like a kite with a broken string by the powerful force.

He flew through the air in an arc before crashing heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Upon landing, Si Gu Jian's face was ashen, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood, staining the ground in front of him red. Clearly, he had suffered extremely serious injuries in that attack.

Azure Dragon walked forward with steady and slow steps, each step seemingly carrying immense weight.

His gaze fell on Si Gu Jian not far away, his eyes showing no murderous intent, only deep respect for this tenacious opponent.

Although Si Gu Jian was ultimately defeated, his fearless courage and formidable strength still moved Qinglong deeply and filled him with emotion.

After a brief moment of staring, Qinglong no longer focused his gaze on Si Gujian, but quickly surveyed the surrounding battle situation.

Soon, he noticed that the battle on the White Tiger's side had ended. Without hesitation, he turned around and sped off like lightning towards the location of the Vermilion Bird and the Black Tortoise.

At this moment, Zhuque and Xuanwu are engaged in a fierce battle with Emperor Qing.

However, even with the two joining forces, they still failed to gain much advantage against Emperor Qing.

It should be noted that although Zhuque and Xuanwu are both powerful figures at the Grandmaster level, they are not dedicated combat personnel within the massive organization of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Therefore, when they faced Emperor Qing, who was a veteran of countless battles and ranked first among the four grandmasters, the contest could only be considered a draw at best.

After all, Emperor Qing had an absolute advantage in terms of cultivation level and combat experience.

However, since stepping into the Dragon Kingdom, Emperor Qing has always had a huge question in his mind: where did all these Grandmaster-level experts who suddenly appeared come from?

Could it be that all of this is somehow related to the temple? This question weighed heavily on Emperor Qing's mind like a dark cloud, leaving him completely baffled.
