Exhilarating!

Since he first began practicing Chess Swordsmanship, Wang Junze had never executed this sword move with such ease and comfort.

Whether at Broken Dragon Cliff or in the Cloud Mirror Sect, whenever Wang Junze executed this sword technique, it always involved some element of luck. Even when successful, it felt quite awkward, serving more as a defensive move than an offensive one.

It wasn't until this moment, leveraging the power of wind and snow, that Wang Junze truly realized that this sword was not merely a simple defensive technique. Even when used offensively, it possessed terrifying power.

Perhaps this is what the sword was meant to be like all along.

It's like playing chess; even in the opening stage, the situation is ever-changing. It doesn't mean that a careful layout lacks aggression. Often, it doesn't even require reaching the mid-game to secure a decisive victory right from the beginning.

And so it is now; there is no need to transition the sword technique into strangulation. Just by employing this sword move with the power of wind and snow, Wang Junze can suppress, and even... kill the opponent!

With a flip of his wrist, Wang Junze immediately switched from defense to offense, actively charging towards his opponent.

Escape!

Upon seeing Wang Junze charging, the Deserter Refining Spirit Powerhouse dared not hesitate for a moment and turned around to flee.

Among those of the Refining Spirit Realm, his strength was not particularly strong. It was only because he was more skilled in concealing his presence and assassinations that he was sent to ambush Wang Junze. This blizzard was ideal for him to display his skills.

Initially, everything proceeded smoothly. Although he hadn't achieved a successful ambush, he was still confident he could kill Wang Junze. But who would have thought that in just this moment, Wang Junze seemed like a different person, with abilities completely beyond what Condensing Truth should possess, overturning his understanding entirely.

In any case, he was not the only Deserter Refining Spirit Powerhouse. As long as he escaped and brought back the news, it would already count as a great achievement.

The strength of a Refining Spirit practitioner still had a significant advantage. In a full burst of strength, even the surrounding wind and snow could hardly pose a significant obstacle as he swiftly escaped tens of meters away with the blizzard.

This was already a very safe distance. Under normal circumstances, a Condensing Truth Powerhouse would barely be able to stabilize themselves in such wind and snow; their True Qi wouldn't support reckless movements.

However, what he never expected was just when he thought he had reached safety, a terrifying sword light suddenly attacked from behind, even faster than before!

"Impossible! How can you ignore the wind and snow?"

With a trace of horror in his eyes, the Deserter Refining Spirit Powerhouse couldn't help but exclaim, forcing himself to burn his Divine Soul to barely block this sword!

Ignoring the wind and snow?!

Of course, Wang Junze couldn't ignore the wind and snow. Even with the Hundred Meridians Opening, where his internal True Qi far exceeded that of an ordinary Condensing Truth Martial Artist, he couldn't possess such explosive power to advance so quickly against the wind and snow.

But... why force it?

Wang Junze didn't need to withstand the power of the wind and snow forcibly. In just one step, he leapt directly into the blizzard, moving with the flow of the wind and snow.

It felt as if he had merged into the wind and snow itself, propelled by it, allowing for greater speed than before.

Naturally, Wang Junze wasn't going to explain any of this to his opponent.

Without any hesitation, Wang Junze struck again, effortlessly executing the sword move Yu Luo.

The Sword Qi fell like rain, mixed within the wind and snow, rushing forward as if carrying the immense power of the heavens and earth, crashing down magnificently!

This sword, not only embodied the power of the Yu Luo move itself, but through leveraging the power of wind and snow, completed a strategic layout, merging the Rain Sword Intent, Power of Wind and Snow, and the essence of the layout from this sword move into one, reaching an extremely terrifying realm.

To say without any exaggeration, the power of this sword certainly didn't pale in comparison to the full-force execution of the strangulation move back in the Cloud Mirror Sect.

Even though the opponent had burned their Divine Soul, unleashing their full power, they still couldn't withstand this sword.

"Poof!"

In an instant, countless Sword Qi pierced through the opponent's body, blood blooming like blood plum, scattering as the Deserter Refining Spirit Powerhouse was almost torn to pieces by this sword.

Slain!

Compared to the previous slaying of a Refining Spirit Powerhouse, this time Wang Junze appeared more at ease. He had expended hardly any True Qi to easily kill the opponent.

Of course, it wasn't that Wang Junze's strength had truly grown so much. To a large extent, he was leveraging the power of the wind and snow. If changed to another setting, even if victory were possible, it wouldn't be so effortless.

He exhaled a long breath, even Wang Junze himself was somewhat surprised by the power of this sword.

Originally thinking of the blizzard as a massive danger, who would have thought it would become an opportunity, truly a case of life's unpredictability.

After a moment's reflection, Wang Junze came to a realization.

This might not be an accident at all!

Chess Swordsmanship!

If this relic truly has ties to the Sect that created Chess Swordsmanship, then for those who practice Chess Swordsmanship, this is home ground, and even this blizzard might have been intentionally left by those ancient powerhouses of old.

Upon this realization, a surge of killing intent arose in Wang Junze's heart!

If this was truly not a coincidence, then this was the best opportunity for him.

The death of one Refining Spirit doesn't affect the Deserters much, but... what if he kills three or five, or even more Refining Spirit Powerhouses leveraging this blizzard?

Even if the Deserters are united, handling such losses would be difficult, wouldn't it?

In terms of pure strength, the Human Race side is stronger than the Deserters. However, the alliance formed by various sects each have their own agendas and lack the execution power of the Deserters.

But... battling against the wind is one thing, fighting with the wind behind is entirely different.

As long as they can manage to kill more Deserters, and others see hope in defeating them, driven by interest, they would easily unite and unleash even stronger combat power to crush the Deserters in one blow!

This is what this battle is truly about!

With a step forward, Wang Junze immediately leapt again, moving with the blizzard towards the positions of the other Deserters.

This is a true life-or-death battle, allowing for no softness of heart. Only with the most dominating stance, slaughtering his way through can shake the confidence of the Deserters.

Since this blizzard can provide him with a tremendous advantage, he must kill as many opponents before the snow stops to gain greater advantage.

Moreover, Wang Junze vaguely felt that this blizzard was also a training opportunity. By continuously engaging the Deserters, it might deepen his understanding of Chess Swordsmanship, making it a training opportunity as well!
