Ye Shouxin was moving very slowly, not deliberately speeding up, only his sword in hand was fast. At a quick glance, Ye Shouxin didn't seem to be fighting, but rather strolling!
Yet upon seeing Ye Shouxin at this moment, Lin Kongxian's face broke into a bright smile.
Only he knew that the reason Ye Shouxin was slow was to confuse his opponent; his sword was so fast that it looked as if it wasn't moving. In fact, when you're close to Ye Shouxin, you might not even know what happened before you're dead beneath his sword!
To achieve this feat requires an extremely high level of control over speed. After all, when someone's hand speed increases, their footwork naturally follows suit.
But Ye Shouxin was different; his hands were hands, his feet were feet, each doing their own job, like drawing a circle with the right hand and a square with the left. This ability was something Lin Fan couldn't achieve as of now!
"Old Ye, you've grown a lot stronger in the past twenty years!"
Lin Kongxian chuckled with amusement!
Ye Shouxin said nothing, holding his breath and focusing, his sword speed grew faster and faster, like a sky full of falling stars. Not long after, Ye Shouxin finally reached close to Lin Kongxian!
Swoosh~
A tearing sound was heard as a brilliant beam of cold light sliced through the void, striking towards Lin Kongxian!
The sword speed was so fast that it fell atop Lin Kongxian's head in no time!
But soon~
With a crisp "tear," the sharp blade merely sliced through the air, not even brushing Lin Kongxian's coat hem, as Lin Kongxian deftly dodged to the side like a specter!
Ye Shouxin's eyes narrowed in surprise, not expecting Lin Kongxian to avoid such a swift strike without harm. With a flick of his wrist holding the Long Sword, Ye Shouxin swung it horizontally towards Lin Kongxian's waist, mercilessly wishing to cut Lin Kongxian in two!
"You're going to lose!" Lin Kongxian said nonchalantly.
"Why?" Ye Shouxin asked in confusion.
"Because you're anxious to kill me, your emotions are off. The more anxious you are to defeat me, the quicker you'll end up losing." Lin Kongxian responded with a calm smile.
"Take a sword from me first then talk." Ye Shouxin coldly shouted, swinging his sword faster and faster!
But Lin Kongxian was unfazed, extending two fingers suddenly wrapped in a layer of Powerful Qi, flicking them to meet the incoming Long Sword!
A crisp "clang" was heard!
Lin Kongxian's fingers and Ye Shouxin's Long Sword collided crazily like two streaks of lightning, a boiling stream of air spread in between the point of collision!
Ye Shouxin's Long Sword was knocked out of his hand, the powerful force causing his palm to sting.
Witnessing this, Nie Lei couldn't help but click his tongue: "Boss, what kind of technique did our Master train in, that his fingers are tougher than a sword? This is like a superhero from a United States blockbuster."
"This is One-Finger Zen!" Lin Fan said eagerly.
As Lin Kongxian's direct disciple, Lin Fan knew well the terrifying power of One-Finger Zen. Lin Fan had only trained to fifty percent mastery, allowing him to easily penetrate steel, not to mention Lin Kongxian's near-century mastery of One-Finger Zen!
It's simply terrifying!
Yet just as Lin Fan and Nie Lei chatted idly, Ye Shouxin acted again!
He tapped the ground with his feet, leaping up, his right hand tilting the Long Sword downwards, tearing the surrounding air open with a "hiss"!
Originally, Ye Shouxin's sword was bright, and now with the tilt estimation, it reflected a blinding white light, making it almost impossible to look at with bare eyes!
But this time, as the blade approached Lin Kongxian's head, he once again dodged with his strange Body Technique!
The sword fiercely slammed into the ground, shattering ice and snow, leaving a deep sword mark on the ground. The strong Sword Wind swept up the snowflakes like a storm, scattering them like fairy petals falling to the side!
"Impressive Sword Force!" Lin Kongxian smiled softly.
"Old Lin, show all your strength; I know you haven't attacked yet. Even in defeat, let me lose convincingly." Ye Shouxin roared, his eyes full of fighting spirit!
Swoosh swoosh swoosh~
Several sharp wind sounds echoed as Ye Shouxin rapidly swung his Long Sword again. This time, Ye Shouxin's sword speed soared, creating sword shadows around him, like forming a cocoon enveloping Ye Shouxin. Those sharp Sword Qi, touching them meant death!
Everyone else watching was shaken, hardly imagining such rapid sword speed reaching this effect, almost like watching a special effects movie!
However, reality was more real, vivid, and thrilling than any movie scene!
Ye Shouxin swiftly approached Lin Kongxian, the Sword Qi sweeping up the ground's snow like a sudden blizzard, with flying snowflakes filling the sky, blocking out the sun!
At this moment, Lin Kongxian also finally moved!
He extended his index finger on the right hand, wrapped in a layer of Powerful Qi, extremely sharp, One-Finger Zen unleashed!
His finger swiftly pierced forward, each piercing making a "sizzling" sound as if a knife was cutting through skin, evoking a chilling sensation in listeners!
Ye Shouxin's sword speed was fast, Lin Kongxian's finger speed was also fast. The fingers continuously collided with Ye Shouxin's Long Sword, producing "clanging" metallic sounds, linking together like a metal symphony, becoming the only sound on the mountaintop!
Lin Fan and others watched in awe; in just a few blinks, Lin Kongxian and Ye Shouxin had already clashed over a hundred rounds.
Their long hair tossed by the wind, their facial muscles twisted by the air currents, looked fierce as two tigers competing for territory, engaged in an intense struggle, where it's either you die or I die!
Bang~
At this moment, a muffled echo sounded!
Lin Kongxian and Ye Shouxin clashed for the hundred-and-eighth time, the powerful impact forced them back three steps, leaving three distinct footprints on the ground!
Lin Kongxian's white robe was cut open with three tiny slits, but Ye Shouxin fared no better, his clothes pierced by Lin Kongxian's One-Finger Zen with four holes!
Upon inspection of Ye Shouxin's Long Sword, the originally bright and sharp blade was now riddled with uneven notches, resembling a piece of scrap metal ready to be melted down and reforged, rather than a menacing treasure sword. Even the sword body had several small round holes punctured by Lin Kongxian!
One of the small round holes was just above the sword hilt, a hair's breadth away from Ye Shouxin's grip. If Ye Shouxin had been even a fraction of a second slower, this finger would have pierced through his palm!
