No hope for eternal life

Chapter 390: Fighting Lin Yu Again

Fan Lihua dodged left and right in the formation, trying to resist, but she had no strength left to break it.

So, when Mu Changsheng completed the third level of the killing array, the three killing arrays worked together to strangle Fan Lihua, who could no longer hold on and gave up.

After Fan Lihua, Mu Changsheng won ten games in a row and was promoted to 29th place. Above Mu Changsheng were Lin Yu at 28th place and Ruan Xiong at 27th place.

Moreover, Lin Yu has already lost to Ruan Xiong, and Ruan Xiong has also lost to a senior brother named Fang who ranked 26th. Their rankings have already been fixed.

"Those senior brothers who have reached the peak of tribulation are really powerful. Even Senior Brother Ruan was defeated." Mu Changsheng sighed in his heart. He had discovered while watching the battle that those senior brothers and sisters who had reached the peak of tribulation were only one step away from the Divine Sea Realm, and their strength was infinitely close to the Divine Sea Realm.

Even if Mu Changsheng had the seventh-grade Shadow Divine Talisman as his trump card, he felt that he could not be a match for those senior brothers and sisters who were at the peak of tribulation.

Therefore, Mu Changsheng now only has room for improvement in the ranking by two places, and his final opponents are Lin Yu and Ruan Xiong.

Mu Changsheng took a deep breath and said, "I want to challenge Senior Sister Lin Yu."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Changsheng and Lin Yu were pulled into the illusion by the sect protection spirit.

In the illusion, Mu Changsheng was speechless for a moment, and it was Lin Yu who spoke first: "Today's sect competition, fellow disciples competing with each other, is a grand event that promotes each other, please do not show mercy, Junior Brother Mu."

"Of course." Mu Changsheng nodded in response, then clasped his fists and said, "Senior sister, please draw your sword first."

Lin Yu nodded slightly, without any more politeness, he drew out the green sword in his hand, controlled the sword with his Qi, and attacked Mu Changsheng directly.

Mu Changsheng immediately responded with punches, and his punches hit the flying sword, but could not shake it at all.

Although both are natal swords, Lin Yu's is far superior to the natal swords of the brothers Mu Changsheng met who were in the late stage of tribulation. It is hard to believe that this is the natal sword of a cultivator in the early stage of tribulation.

The flying sword was also extremely fast. It arrived in front of Mu Changsheng in the moment when Mu Changsheng threw a punch.

Seeing this, Mu Changsheng could only activate the defense of the sixth-grade top-level Zhoutian Talisman. He had previously refined ten Zhoutian Talismans to help him overcome the tribulation, and now only this last one is left.

The flying sword carried an overwhelming force, shaking continuously, and hit the Zhoutian Star Clothes transformed from the Zhoutian Talisman. The starlight on the Zhoutian Star Clothes dimmed a lot in an instant, which showed how powerful this sword was. If this sword hit Mu Changsheng's body, it would be no different from chopping melons and vegetables.

"This should be the sixth secret technique among the Nine Profound Secret Techniques." Mu Changsheng thought to himself. The last time he fought with Lin Yu was when he was at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. At that time, Lin Yu was limited by his cultivation and could not use this secret technique. But now, Lin Yu can naturally use the sixth secret technique at will.

The so-called Sixth Secret Technique of the Nine Profound Formations is closely related to formations, and is known as a technique that specifically defeats formations!

Once this move is made, the flying sword will vibrate at high speed, and the power of the flying sword will spread by the vibration. The destructive power of the flying sword will no longer be focused on one point, but will carry out overall destruction.

If a formation is to be stable, the most important thing is to ensure the overall balance and stability of the formation. If this kind of means is encountered, the balance will be easily destroyed. Therefore, the Sixth Secret Technique of Jiuxuan has the reputation of being the nemesis of formations.

This is why Mu Changsheng did not use the God-Slaying Formation to defend himself. If he had used the God-Slaying Formation, he would probably have been defeated in an instant.

The reason why Mu Changsheng was able to win eleven consecutive competitions against his senior brothers and sisters who were in the late stage of tribulation was because of his proficient coordination of formations. From this perspective, Lin Yu's methods were still quite restraining to Mu Changsheng.

Mu Changsheng was afraid to use the formation plate at will, and his physical training was not enough to block Lin Yu's flying sword, so he could only use talismans to fight.

Among the three thousand great ways, the sword way is the most popular. Mu Changsheng has long known that he will definitely encounter many sword cultivator opponents in this sect competition, so he has also refined a number of talismans specifically for restraining sword cultivators, and now is the time for them to come in handy.

Mu Changsheng saw a golden talisman burning in his hand, and a pair of golden scissors suddenly appeared and cut Lin Yu's flying sword hard.

This is a top-grade sixth-grade golden scissors talisman. The golden scissors are extremely sharp and are said to be able to break all kinds of spiritual weapons, including flying swords.

The natal sword is connected to the life of its owner. If the golden scissors talisman can destroy Lin Yu's natal flying sword, Lin Yu will naturally be seriously injured and defeated without a fight.

However, to Mu Changsheng's disappointment, the golden scissors talisman cut on the blade of the green sword, but failed to cut the flying sword in half, and even failed to leave any trace. Even when the power of the golden scissors was exhausted, it was unable to damage the flying sword in the slightest.

Although Mu Changsheng was a little disappointed, he was not too surprised. After all, Lin Yu was the only disciple of Elder Shangguan and the only disciple of Sect Master Fengrui. Her natal sword was naturally not an ordinary thing and would not break easily.

Mu Changsheng used the golden scissors talisman only hoping to damage the flying sword a little, because if the flying sword was damaged it would mean that Lin Yu would also be injured.

Seeing that the Golden Scissors Talisman had no effect at all, Mu Changsheng changed his strategy in time and stopped using the Golden Scissors Talisman. He replaced the talisman in his hand with the Sword Sealing Talisman.

After the sword-sealing talisman was activated, it immediately turned into a black stream of light, and like a maggot attached to the bone, tightly wrapped around Lin Yu's flying sword.

Seeing this, Lin Yu frowned slightly. She recognized at a glance that Mu Changsheng was using the Sword Sealing Talisman, because the Sword Sealing Talisman was extremely famous. From the name of the talisman, it can be seen that this talisman is specifically used to counter flying swords.

The reason why the flying sword can burst out with powerful force is due to two points. The first is that the flying sword is extremely fast. The terrifying speed brings terrifying power. The second is because of the sharpness of the flying sword itself. The combination of the two gives the flying sword a destructive power far beyond that of the cultivators of the same level. The saying that one sword can break all laws also comes from this.

The Sword-Sealing Talisman is specifically designed to address these two points. The power of the Sword-Sealing Talisman is wrapped around the flying sword, like a mountain pressing down on top of one's head. The flying sword is flying with a heavy mountain on its back, so its speed will naturally be greatly reduced. Moreover, the power of the Sword-Sealing Talisman will also weaken the sharpness of the flying sword to a certain extent.

However, Lin Yu remained calm in the face of this situation because she had already thought of a way to deal with it.

"Sword Five, Sword Six." Lin Yu clasped his hands together and used the fifth and sixth secret techniques of the Nine Profound Secret Techniques together. The fifth secret technique enhanced the power of the flying sword, while the sixth secret technique made the flying sword vibrate at high speed. With the combined power of the two, he quickly shook off and expelled the power of the sword-sealing talisman attached to the sword body.

At the same time, Lin Yu's mantra suddenly changed: "Sword Seven!"

Suddenly, countless sword shadows appeared around the flying sword, and these sword shadows attacked Mu Changsheng in an overwhelming manner.

"This is the seventh secret art!" Mu Changsheng's expression finally changed. Normally, only when one's cultivation reaches the peak of tribulation can one perform the seventh secret art. Lin Yu's cultivation is only at the initial stage of tribulation, so Mu Changsheng never expected that Lin Yu could perform the seventh secret art.

Those sword shadows were not ordinary sword shadows that were just showing off their power. With the blessing of the seventh secret technique, each sword shadow had at least 30% of the power of the natal flying sword.

Don't underestimate that 30% of the power. With so many sword shadows attacking at the same time, their power is far greater than Lin Yu's natal sword.

Seeing the attack coming, Mu Changsheng thought quickly: "Even a sixth-grade top-level Zhoutian Talisman will definitely not be able to block this attack. Since I can't defend, I will attack it."
