Chapter 1987: Chapter 1984: The Eerie Lan Yuxin!
"Single-Stroke Sword Skill!"
"Four Gods Sword Slash!"
On the Twelfth Island, Lin Bai’s sword light continuously slashed out, fiercely attacking forward.
But every strike of sword qi and sword glow was easily evaded by Lan Yuxin at the moment it approached her.
"Lan Yuxin can so easily dodge Lin Bai’s sword qi and sword glow. Her figure is as graceful as a butterfly among flowers."
"Indeed, it’s so beautiful."
"Lin Bai is already going all out, yet still hasn’t harmed Lan Yuxin in the slightest. It seems impossible for Lin Bai to defeat Lan Yuxin and pass the Twelfth Island."
"Indeed, even Blackstone Roland Sword Nine’s Tyrant Sword Skill and Yin Jiuling couldn’t shake Lan Yuxin. No one will likely pass the Twelfth Island this year."
An old disciple from the First Island said in a low voice.
They held higher hopes for Blackstone Roland Sword Nine and Yin Jiuling than for Lin Bai, even more so for Wu He and Shi Zhongxian than for Lin Bai.
Since Wu He and Shi Zhongxian were trapped on the Eleventh Island, and Blackstone Roland and Yin Jiuling were defeated by Lan Yuxin, these seasoned disciples almost concluded that no new warriors would conquer the twelve islands this year.
Swish, swish, swish—
Brilliant sword lights slashed towards Lan Yuxin.
Sword shadows appeared all around her, covering the sky and earth.
Just as those veteran disciples said, she was like a butterfly among flowers, gracefully evading all of Lin Bai’s attacks.
"How is this possible?" Lin Bai stared wide-eyed at Lan Yuxin, "My sword qi and sword shadows were impenetrable, like a Heavenly Spider Web. Even if I were ensnared, I wouldn’t find a flaw in an instant."
"Why can she so easily find flaws and evade them?"
Lin Bai was utterly perplexed, his expression filled with shock.
Hundreds of sword qi slashed towards Lan Yuxin, yet not one harmed her.
"Your sword technique seems unable to hurt me," Lan Yuxin said with a calm smile.
Lin Bai’s eyes narrowed, revealing a hint of astonishment.
Lan Yuxin chuckled softly, "Now it’s my time."
Boom—
As soon as Lan Yuxin finished speaking, a powerful force burst from her, her figure darting across the arena like a meteor, carrying the power to shatter the earth, attacking Lin Bai.
"Not good." Lin Bai cried out, instantly using his movement technique to retreat.
But Lan Yuxin’s speed was lightning-fast, catching up to Lin Bai in the blink of an eye. A palm strike delivered with solid force hit Lin Bai squarely in the chest.
Thud—
Lin Bai’s form flew backward, landing a hundred meters away, staggering on his feet.
"Three Feet Qingfeng." As Lin Bai landed, he immediately launched into a counterattack, "Earlier, she let me strike first, able to evade my sword technique with preparedness. But now that she takes the initiative, she surely will be distracted."
"This sword strike will hit."
Lin Bai gritted his teeth, launching an attack at Lan Yuxin.
Lin Bai thought that since Lan Yuxin let him strike first, she must have been prepared, enabling her to evade his sword technique easily; but now as Lan Yuxin was attacking him, she would undoubtedly be distracted, thus he was absolutely confident in hitting her with this strike.
This sword flew across the sky like a startling swan.
But just in an instant, when the sword approached Lan Yuxin, she sidestepped, easily evading it once more.
"Trying to attack me while I strike? Good idea, but for me... it’s still useless." Lan Yuxin coldly smiled and struck Lin Bai in the chest with a palm.
Lin Bai spat blood, flying backward and crashing a thousand meters away.
"What on earth is going on? She seems able to see through all the flaws in my attacks!"
Lin Bai supported himself with his sword, standing up without pursuing further attacks, silently pondering.
"Ah..." Brother Harper lightly shook his head, "Lin Bai’s sword technique is strong, but after hundreds of moves, he still hasn’t harmed Lan Yuxin at all."
Ren Tingga said, "Indeed, this is the strength of the Lan Clan."
Brother Harper said, "The Lan Clan’s Bloodline Legacy Martial Soul is indeed very strong."
Lin Bai stood silently, staring at Lan Yuxin for a long time.
Suddenly, Lin Bai launched another sword attack, this time faster, integrating all the speed of the Aurora Realm, attacking Lan Yuxin with a violent stab.
"I said, your attacks are useless against me." Lan Yuxin chuckled, lightly sidestepping to evade.
At that moment, Lin Bai saw a blue glow flash in Lan Yuxin’s clear eyes as she dodged his sword technique.
"Is it that blue glow allowing her to see through my attacks?"
Lin Bai thought quietly in his heart.
Yet again, Lan Yuxin evaded the attack, but Lin Bai wasn’t anxious.
At that moment, Lin Bai’s eyes flashed with light.
A plan formed in his mind.
Immediately, Lin Bai stomped his feet, his body flying up, sword shadows and sword glows converged into a terrifying sword net, directly attacking Lan Yuxin.
"So stubborn. I said, your attacks are useless against me." Lan Yuxin chuckled, her body flightily slipping forward, easily threading through the gaps of the sword net.
These sword qi surprisingly failed to harm Lan Yuxin at all.
Lin Bai chuckled, "I know my sword techniques can’t harm you directly, but I don’t believe... I’m wasting my effort!"
Lan Yuxin frowned, coldly asking, "What do you mean?"
Lin Bai’s lips curled into an icy smile, he spoke softly, "Tai Chi Dual Elemental Sword Array! Kill array, activate!"
Boom! Boom!
As Lin Bai finished speaking, from the mud of the Twelfth Island’s Martial Arts Competition Arena, two Flying Swords suddenly emerged, thrusting straight towards Lan Yuxin’s back.
Lan Yuxin’s expression changed, urgently turning to check, activating all her spiritual power to form a shield.
But those two Flying Swords pierced through effortlessly, striking Lan Yuxin’s shield with a loud boom, shattering her shield, and simultaneously sending Lan Yuxin flying.
Thump—
Lan Yuxin fell a hundred meters away, her white robe stained with blood, a trace of blood at her lips.
The two Flying Swords returned by Lin Bai’s side.
Lin Bai chuckled, "Senior Sister of the Southern Yard, don’t accuse me of a sneak attack. I had no choice since you can see through all direct attacks!"
"But it seems you can’t see attacks from behind."
Lin Bai said with a faint smile.
Lan Yuxin climbed to her feet, wiped the blood from her lips, and coldly looked at Lin Bai...
