C96 (1/2)
Swish!
Cang Yun's fingers slightly rotated on the light bridge as a dark-black short sword quietly appeared in his palm.
He slightly bent his legs. His eyes were as sharp as a leopard's as he coldly stared at the prey in front of him.
”Sword Draw?”
The crowd was stunned. Cang Yun's actions had confused them. What was he trying to do? A person that could pull out a sword in the lowest difficulty … could it be that he wanted to attack a Spiritual Beast? Isn't this courting death!
”He must be scared. He's holding a sword to strengthen his courage.” The short and fat youth laughed coldly. His face that was covered in fat was filled with a disdainful expression. He didn't even dare to raise the difficulty of his cultivation base to the fourth layer, he didn't believe that the weak Cang Yun had the qualifications to do so.
”Roar!”
At this moment, the tiger-shaped spirit beast was activated. It let out a roar and pounced towards the azure cloud.
Cang Yun's pupils constricted. He stomped his foot and leaped into the air. His body rolled in the air like a dandelion fluttering in the wind, and he was filled with a gentle aura.
Swoosh!
As the tiger-shaped Spiritual Beast passed by Cang Yun, the scarlet flames on its gigantic body rose. Cang Yun could clearly feel the scorching heat coming from within.
As his body rolled in the air above the tiger's back, Cang Yun's gaze became sharp as a picture of the body of a tiger-shaped spirit beast appeared in his mind.
This pattern was different from the others. Strands of strange patterns circulated on its surface, and they intertwined together like meridians. These patterns were filled with a mysterious ability, and under its guidance, countless energies were deeply bound, forming the body of a tiger-shaped spirit beast.
This was a formation!
Suddenly, Cang Yun's eyes lit up. The long sword in his hand stabbed straight down, and like a galaxy, it accurately hit the third section of the tiger back.
Clang!
Golden sounds exploded out with an ear-piercing buzzing sound. The Azure Cloud Sword bent deeply and then bounced back like a spring. Under the force of the bounce, the Azure Cloud Sword flipped over and slowly floated down like a fallen leaf.
Hm? He dodged it?
Everyone was startled as they did not expect Cang Yun to be so agile. Originally, people thought that even if Cang Yun could dodge an attack, he would still be in a sorry state. However, they did not expect him to not only dodge a frontal attack, but also stab forward.
”So what if your movement technique is good? You're not greedy enough to attack the spirit beasts. You're simply seeking your own death!”
Cang Yun's performance just now had far surpassed his expectations, and he was quite unhappy about it. However, thinking that the strength of the Spiritual Beasts would definitely soar, he let out a cold laugh. This Azure Cloud was simply digging its own grave.
At this moment, Peng Kong reminded Cang Yun, ”Senior Brother Cang Yun, quickly increase the distance. This spirit beast's only weakness is its speed. Try your best to delay it and don't meet it head on.”
Peng Kong's view of Cang Yun was completely different from the others. Before this, he had always been by Cang Yun's side, and the latter's calmness and tranquility had left a deep impression on him. He faintly believed that Cang Yun was not as terrible as the others claimed.
”No matter how much you remind him, it's useless. With the difference in strength, it's impossible for him to pass the test.” The violet-clothed youth glanced at Peng Kong as he spoke indifferently.
Amongst everyone present, the purple-clothed youth was the only one who had passed the test. He was the one who had understood the difficulty of the test the best.
To Peng Kong's kind reminder, Cang Yun gave a friendly smile. In the face of this torrential storm of attacks, he seemed to be unconcerned about them.
”You're about to die, and you can still laugh.” The violet-clothed youth frowned slightly.
Roar!
The tiger-shaped spirit beast pounced once again. The azure cloud swirled in the air like a nimble spirit bird, always finding an opening at an incredible angle and drilling out of the attacking range.
Ding ding ding!
During the process of dodging, the long sword in Cang Yun's hand did not hesitate and thrusted out from time to time. It was like a vicious snake, accurately striking the body of the tiger-shaped Spiritual Beast.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
The power of the Azure Cloud Sword was not great, but what was strange was that with every thrust, although the tiger-shaped spirit beast was not injured, it still grimaced in pain, as if it was undergoing some kind of torture.
However, this scene did not attract the attention of the crowd. In their eyes, this was only the angry roar of the tiger-shaped spirit beast. After all, the successive attacks had not been able to injure the azure cloud.
What was really interesting was that Cang Yun could still persist?
”This Cang Yun's movement technique is actually so profound, the spirit beasts can't even touch him!”
”It is indeed mysterious. With such a low level of cultivation, he is able to do it this quickly. It is simply unimaginable.” Many people exclaimed in their hearts. Their attitudes also gradually changed. From their previous disdain, there was now a trace of admiration.
In the world of martial dao, strength was revered. The methods that Cang Yun had displayed were like a sigh, gaining respect.
”I didn't expect the Vastheaven Realm's sector lord to be so protective of his child, even allowing him to learn such a precious movement technique. Truly enviable.” The violet-clothed youth's eyes slightly narrowed as he spoke with some jealousy.
