Cao Mingjin sank his body and looked in the direction of the golden sword energy.
"Lan Bu!"
Cao Mingjin stomped on the ground and then shot forward, showing no intention of retreating, but instead charging towards the golden sword energy!
At the moment the golden sword energy was about to strike, Cao Mingjin's figure suddenly flickered. He moved half a step sideways, dodging the golden sword energy and heading straight for Bai Ye.
Bai Ye lowered his sword and looked at Cao Mingjin.
A wise choice!
The Xuanyuan Sword was powerful!
But it was only the Xuanyuan Sword that was powerful, not Bai Ye himself.
Cao Mingjin wasn't without hope of winning. As long as he dodged the Xuanyuan Sword's attack and then attacked Bai Ye, it would be enough.
"That's what you thought, right?"
Bai Ye slowly curled his lips, watching Cao Mingjin leap in front of him. As his palms crossed, a large amount of wind appeared, entangling Cao Mingjin's arms.
Bai Ye suddenly lifted his foot and stomped on the ground!
With a boom!
A large expanse of flames surged up, enveloping Bai Ye's body and forming a pillar of fire.
Cao Mingjin's fists shot forward. The constantly rotating wind formed sharp blades, slicing through the flames surrounding Bai Ye.
But…
"Yan Bao!"
The moment the flames dispersed, Bai Ye decisively detonated the scattered flames.
The roar of the explosion sounded, and layered shockwaves pushed outwards, shattering the wind currents stirred up by Cao Mingjin.
Cao Mingjin could feel a significant impact rushing towards him. His body tumbled in the air before landing back on the ground.
On the other side, Bai Ye emerged from the flames and said to Cao Mingjin, "You didn't think I had no other skills besides this sword, did you?"
As Bai Ye spoke, he raised the Xuanyuan Sword.
He was really being underestimated!
Bai Ye slashed the Xuanyuan Sword forward again, and a sword's hum immediately arose.
Golden sword energy reappeared, heading towards Cao Mingjin.
Cao Mingjin dared not delay and quickly retreated backward.
For Cao Mingjin, the power of the golden sword energy was terrifying, so terrifying that Cao Mingjin didn't dare to face it head-on. One, two, three?
Cao Mingjin wasn't sure how many golden sword energies he could withstand if he faced them directly, but it certainly wouldn't be many.
However, for Cao Mingjin, there was good news: the attack speed of the golden sword energy wasn't very fast. With the explosive instant acceleration of Lan Bu, Cao Mingjin was confident he could dodge the golden sword energy.
Thinking this, Cao Mingjin's feet once again generated wind currents.
Lan Bu activated!
Cao Mingjin judged the timing and leaped to the side, but…
The next moment…
As Cao Mingjin looked up, he was shocked to find that Bai Ye had appeared right in front of him.
Explosive instant acceleration?
What Bai Ye used was…
Teleportation!
This time, the moment Bai Ye unleashed the golden sword energy, he didn't stay in place but immediately activated teleportation.
The space Cao Mingjin could dodge into was either the sides of the golden sword energy, or above it.
A one-third probability!
Bai Ye had bet correctly!
Hand raised, sword falls!
Seeing Cao Mingjin charging towards him, Bai Ye unhesitatingly slashed down with his sword.
Cao Mingjin's heart leaped in alarm.
At the critical moment, Cao Mingjin suddenly crossed his hands and met the Xuanyuan Sword.
"Hmm?"
Strangely, Cao Mingjin's hands didn't touch the Xuanyuan Sword. His crossed hands were positioned on either side of the Xuanyuan Sword, with empty space in between.
However, Bai Ye felt like he had struck something, and the Xuanyuan Sword was intercepted.
Moreover, Cao Mingjin's face contorted in a grimace, clearly resisting with all his might.
As Bai Ye pondered this, he lightly scraped the Xuanyuan Sword, and a piercing sound arose. Bai Ye then realized that Cao Mingjin was wearing rings on his hands, and between these rings were almost transparent threads.
Bai Ye couldn't help but grin, and with a sharp pull, he sliced across the thin threads.
Almost instantly, the thin threads snapped. After slicing across Cao Mingjin's arm and neck, they left behind bright red blood lines.
Cao Mingjin retreated, wiping his neck.
Looking at the crimson on his palm, Cao Mingjin couldn't help but curse under his breath, then quickly retreated…
Because Bai Ye's Xuanyuan Sword was coming again!
Bai Ye gave Cao Mingjin no chance to breathe. With a flick of his wrist, the Xuanyuan Sword drew a sword flower before thrusting forward again.
As Cao Mingjin retreated, he pulled up his sleeve, revealing a silver mechanical arm guard.
He placed the mechanical arm guard in front of him. A mechanical whirring sound then arose, and metal plates popped out from around the arm guard, quickly forming a rhombus-shaped metal shield.
Clang!
The Xuanyuan Sword descended, and a crisp clashing sound erupted.
The sharpness of the Xuanyuan Sword was unimaginable. With that one slash, the rhombus shield was directly cut open.
However, it had at least been blocked!
Cao Mingjin quickly brushed past, and from his other sleeve, a wrist blade shot out unexpectedly, then stabbed towards Bai Ye's abdomen.
However, at the moment of impact…
Teleportation!
Bai Ye's figure suddenly disappeared and then reappeared directly behind Cao Mingjin, his Xuanyuan Sword slashing again.
Cao Mingjin's reaction was extremely fast. He quickly turned his body and brought the wrist blade in front of him.
Clang!
The crisp clashing sound occurred again.
But the moment Cao Mingjin blocked the wrist blade, Bai Ye swept his leg horizontally, kicking Cao Mingjin in the waist.
Flames blazed fiercely, wrapping around Bai Ye's calf, and the moment they struck Cao Mingjin…
Yan Bao!
The flames wrapped around Bai Ye's leg detonated.
A massive fireball exploded, and the shockwaves rolled outwards, sending Cao Mingjin flying and crashing into the wall on the side.
Then…
Golden sword energy!
Bai Ye raised his hand and slashed forcefully.
Golden sword energy once again shot forward.
Where the sword energy passed, the ground continuously cracked and exploded.
Cao Mingjin had just caught his breath when the golden sword energy arrived.
Cao Mingjin could only hold his wrist shield in front of him and shout, "Defense Field!"
Around the rhombus shield, a nearly transparent barrier appeared, increasing the defensive range and strengthening the defensive power.
But…
The moment the golden sword energy struck the shield, Cao Mingjin still felt immense pressure.
The tremendous force caused Cao Mingjin's arm to tremble, and even the wrist shield shook and made noise, and then…
Crack!
A sound like shattering glass rang out.
The barrier surrounding the wrist shield shattered, and then the wrist shield itself was torn to pieces.
The golden sword energy exploded, and the wall behind Cao Mingjin collapsed, falling outwards. Cao Mingjin himself was then blown from inside the room into the corridor outside.
