Chu Mu vs Li Yi

"Senior Brother's Cloud Sea Sword Technique is really powerful."

Many disciples below the stage exclaimed as they looked at the ten-meter-wide stage that was filled with a faint white color. It was like a miniature version of the sea of clouds.

"Ordinary people wouldn't be able to see anything if they were trapped inside, only a vast expanse of whiteness. Eldest brother, however, is hiding inside, moving in and out at high speed. Each of his sword attacks is unpredictable. Winning is only a matter of time." Yuwen Wenhua and Wang Tinghao thought. They had also experienced the power of the Cloud Sea Sword Technique and had also lost to it. They knew the feeling of being trapped in it and that kind of helplessness.

No matter how you looked, it was all white. It was as if countless clouds were surrounding you. You couldn't tell the direction and couldn't see other colors. It was as if your eyes had lost their function.

This kind of feeling was very uncomfortable. After a while, it would be unbearable and would become impatient. This was a big taboo for swordsmen. In the end, it was inevitable that they would lose.

However, Chu Mu had already lasted for a few breaths of time and hadn't lost yet. This surprised Yuwen Wenhua and Wang Tinghao.

"Sect Master, it looks like Chu Mu is going to lose," Elder Lin said with a regretful expression.

"Yes. Although it's only an incomplete high-level sword technique, its power is still above many mid-level sword techniques. Li Yi's Sword Qi Art is also of the cloud element, so it complements each other." Sect Master Lingfeng nodded with a serious expression. "Trapped in the sea of clouds, all he can see is a vast expanse of white. Without a target, he can't use his sword at all. This is very disadvantageous for Chu Mu. There are only two ways to break out of this predicament. The first is to use a Sword Qi cultivation level that surpasses Li Yi's and forcefully break out of it. However, I estimate that this requires a cultivation level that is at least at the peak of Tenth Stage or even half a step into Qi Transformation. The second is to use an even more powerful Sword Technique to break through it. "

Xiao Qianfeng narrowed his eyes as a faint golden light circulated within them. It was as if it was about to transform into a sword aura and shoot out in an attempt to see through the sea of clouds. However, he could only see a vast expanse of white swirling and changing. He couldn't help but frown slightly.

 

"No matter what, you cannot be defeated. I am still waiting for you to fight me with your full strength," Xiao Qianfeng said with a voice that only he could hear.

In the sea of clouds, Chu Mu stood still with his sword in hand. No matter how the sea of clouds changed, he did not move at all.

As he stared ahead, all he could see were the shifting clouds. He could not see Li Yi's figure.

"In here, the effects of the Vision Sword are greatly weakened. Unless one reaches the consummation of the Vision Sword, they won't be able to do much here," Chu Mu thought to himself. He slowly closed his eyes, not allowing the shifting clouds to interfere with his judgement.

"He actually closed his eyes? Is he going to give up? "Li Yi, who was in the sea of clouds, was puzzled.

Chu Mu could not see him, but he could see Chu Mu. This was the ingenuity of the Sea of Clouds Sword Technique. It was also the reason why he was in an undefeatable position.

"Since that is the case, I will defeat you." With this thought, Li Yi's figure suddenly moved forward. His sword came from the vast sea of clouds, stabbing towards Chu Mu almost soundlessly.

Chu Mu's ears trembled slightly. The almost undetectable sound of the sword piercing through the air still entered his ears. It was very similar to Dacheng's Sword of Hearing. It was extraordinary. He casually swung his sword and blocked Li Yi's sword with a clang. Then, with a flick of his wrist, the Sword Light turned and knocked away Li Yi's sword. Then, he took advantage of the momentum and stabbed forward, causing the clouds to surge violently.

Li Yi was shocked and hurriedly retreated. He remembered that when he fought Chu Mu with his sword technique, not only was he unable to gain the upper hand, but the rhythm was also controlled by Chu Mu. He was powerless to advance or retreat.

In an instant, Li Yi appeared on the other side of Chu Mu. This time, his sword split into three, stabbing towards Chu Mu from the top, the middle, and the bottom. Chu Mu still swung his sword and blocked the three attacks. Then, he took advantage of the momentum to counterattack, causing Li Yi to retreat again in shock.

"How can this be? How can he still be so powerful with his eyes closed? " Li Yi's figure moved swiftly, constantly creating clouds to prevent the sea of clouds from dissipating. At the same time, he was secretly shocked.

The people outside were even more surprised, especially those who had experienced his Sea of Clouds Sword Technique. They were even more confused. It had been so long, so why was there still no winner?

Li Yi did not believe it. Ever since he cultivated the Sea of Clouds Sword Technique, his strength had multiplied. He had established himself as the Sword Sect's Great Senior Brother, and no one could surpass him. But now, even after using the Sea of Clouds Sword Technique, he still could not defeat an inner disciple whose cultivation was only at the peak of Stage Eight.

 

Unknowingly, Li Yi's heart was a little confused. Once his heart was confused, his calm and collected state of mind was naturally broken.

Li Yi's heart was in a mess, and his aura leaked out. He could no longer merge with the sea of clouds like before, and was instantly caught by Chu Mu. He opened his eyes, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes. With a low shout, his sword stirred up a gust of wind. The two cold murderous intents instantly split into sixteen. They crisscrossed and swept towards Li Yi like small tornadoes.

"Not good."

Li Yi's expression changed. The sword in front of him was like a cool breeze, and the sea of clouds shook, showing signs of being blown away. Moreover, the sixteen killing intent were extremely cold and locked onto him, causing Li Yi's hair to stand on end.

He swung his sword, and sword Qi shot out. The killing intent and sword Qi collided, and countless sword Qi shot out in all directions, piercing thousands of holes in the sea of clouds. Everyone could only see the countless sword Qi shooting out, and the sea of clouds collapsing. They were all shocked.

Immediately adjusting his state of mind, Li Yi's footsteps and body were erratic. He flew like a white cloud, rushing towards Chu Mu.

He thrust out his sword, and sword Qi was attached to the blade. As it changed, its speed was astonishing. With a bang, it actually caused the air to explode.

Chu Mu also thrust out his sword with sword Qi. The moment the two swords collided, Chu Mu's arm muscles quickly wriggled, and power passed through the sword. The Hundred Refined Swords collided at high speed, and countless sparks flew.

Li Yi's sword Qi cultivation was much stronger than Chu Mu's, and his sword Qi was purer. Under the collision, Chu Mu only felt a strong vibration from the sword to his hand. His hand was slightly numb, and he almost lost his grip on the sword.

He took the opportunity to loosen his grip, and then he slashed out with his sword, shooting out a sword Qi.

"Break!" Li Yi's left hand was like a sword, and sword Qi spread out. He pointed out with his finger, and after shattering the sword Qi, another sharp sword Qi shot out.

Chu Mu's left hand hurriedly guided the sword Qi, and its speed increased. It was like a sword Qi slashing through the void, shattering the sword Qi and slashing towards Li Yi.

Li Yi used his movement skill to the extreme, and his figure fluttered, dodging Chu Mu's sword Qi, and appeared above his head.

 

"Endless Sea of Clouds," Li Yi muttered. The moment he attacked, he used the Cloud Sea Sword Art's intermediate killer move. He knew that his state of mind was broken, and he needed some time to calm down and adjust. If he continued to fight, it would be disadvantageous for him. Therefore, he used his killer move in an attempt to end this sword battle as soon as possible.

"Eldest Senior Brother is going to win." The Main Palace disciples cheered.

However, Yuwen Wenhua and Wang Tinghao felt that something was wrong.

"Li Yi's state of mind is already in chaos. He lost the essence of the Cloud Style, and he's anxious to win." Luo Tianxiong frowned and thought to himself.

No one knew what had happened in the Cloud Sea that had caused the usually calm Li Yi to lose his state of mind.

In the blink of an eye, countless clouds appeared, forming a Cloud Sea that surrounded him again. Chu Mu could feel the endless cold murderous intent in the Cloud Sea.

When he used the Cloud Concept, Li Yi felt his killer move become sluggish, as if he had fallen into a quagmire. In an instant, he felt a cool breeze blowing, causing the Cloud Sea to churn and show signs of dissipating. Twenty-four cold murderous intents rushed into the Cloud Sea and collided, causing countless explosions.

Immediately after, a light green Wind Blade more than a meter long cut through the sea of clouds and charged towards Li Yi.

"Oh no!" Li Yi's expression changed drastically. The sharpness of the wind blade made him feel a fatal threat. However, the wind blade was too fast for him to dodge. Li Yi channeled his sword Qi to form a layer of armor in front of his chest.

With a cracking sound, like glass shattering, the wind blade shattered Li Yi's sword Qi armor. The huge force sent Li Yi flying, leaving the spectators dumbfounded.

Chu Mu quickly used Windwalk. Riding the wind, he turned into a gust of wind and chased after Li Yi.

This was the first time Chu Mu had used his movement technique with all his strength in public.

Li Yi's chest felt tight, and he almost vomited blood. Chu Mu chased after him, appearing in front of Li Yi in the blink of an eye. A dazzling Sword Light pierced through the air, creating a loud explosion. Li Yi barely raised his sword to block. Chu Mu's Sword Light spun, shaking Li Yi's sword. The sword landed on Li Yi's neck.

The two of them landed at the same time. Chu Mu's sword was still on Li Yi's neck, not moving at all. It seemed like he only needed a light slash to cut open the blood vessels on Li Yi's neck.

 

Li Yi was in a daze. Everything felt like a dream. The disciples below were silent, their faces blank, as if they had stopped breathing.

"This Chu Mu … he's about to defy the heavens …" Elder Lin was dumbstruck and subconsciously blurted out a sentence.
