Ice Face was expressionless like a robot, but Gu Xi’s actions finally caused a reaction. it finally stirred up waves. He said in surprise, “What kind of sword is this? It actually triggered a Heaven and Earth phenomenon.”
This sword was quite astounding. It even caused this fanatic to stop fighting.
“Nine Heavens Meteorite Sword.”
Ice Face showed a strange expression. He was puzzled and said, “There are not many divine swords in the world, and each of them has a name. Any sword that can trigger a Heaven and Earth phenomenon must be a rare famous sword. Why have I never heard of this name?”
It would be strange if he had heard of it. After all, it had been extracted by the system. Gu Xi did not answer. “Are you going to fight or not? If you want to fight, hurry up. I’m rushing to find my next victim.”
Ice Face did not understand the meaning of the last sentence, but his sharp intuition told him that it was not a good thing.
“Come and fight!”
Even if Gu Xi had a famous sword in his hand, he was not afraid. After all, the sword in his hand was not an ordinary one. It was the ‘Frost Sword’ that Xie Daofeng had personally given him.
He had the attributes of a mutated-ice spirit root. Wielding the Frost Sword, he was like a tiger with wings. There were very few people who could defeat him.
The Ice Face swung the sword downwards. It was as if even the surrounding temperature had become much lower.
With him as the center, the light blue crystal rapidly spread out in the surroundings. Wherever the sword aura passed, the green leaves and branches would condense into a faint frost.
A cold aura blew towards them, like the wind whistling in the cold winter months, making their faces hurt. The disciples of the Heavy Sword Peak were indeed not to be underestimated. Gu Xi did not dare to underestimate his opponent.
Gu Xi gently swung the Nine Heavens Meteorite Sword downward, and the power of lightning in the air gathered together. Tiny sparks flickered, and crackling sounds could be vaguely heard.
Buzz!
The two different sword Qis collided with each other, producing a loud sound of contention. The enormous energy that it brought forth caused the air to become distorted, and it pounced fiercely at the two people.
Countless crushed stones and fallen leaves were swept up, forming a huge vortex. It was as if a calm sponge suddenly raised a monstrous wave, but the two people in the center of the storm were incomparably calm. Neither of them took the initiative to attack, it was as if they were waiting for an opportunity.
The sword Qi alone had caused such a huge commotion. They did not dare to imagine what would happen if they actually fought.
Blue crystals floated down from the sky, forming countless icicles. Tens of thousands of them were almost ready to attack. They surrounded Ice Face.
At the same time, there was a violent power of lightning that brought with it the power to destroy the world. The Lightning Dragons appeared and roared continuously.
Gu Xi and Ice Face stared at each other. Immediately, the air was filled with a thick smell of gunpowder.
“Your sword intent is very good.”
Seeing this, Ice Face’s eyes were burning with fighting spirit. He could not wait to have a match with Gu Xi.
“You’re not bad either.”
A trace of wind blew from somewhere, causing the sleeves of their clothes to flutter as if they were Immortals holding swords. However, at this moment, the Ice Face suddenly moved.
The Frost Sword slashed down from the sky. It was like a crescent moon that moved at lightning speed. In an instant, snow and wind blew, leaving only an afterimage in the air.
Gu Xi did not choose to defend or dodge. Instead, he faced it head-on. An attack was the best defense!
The Nine Heavens Meteorite Sword flickered with a black-gold luster. Lightning Dragons roared, and purple lightning bolts were extremely dense. It was like Heaven’s punishment, bringing with it the power to crush everything in its path.
The two forces collided, and everything in the surroundings was instantly turned into powder. Countless boulders shattered with a sound, like fireworks.
Ice Face took half a step back, but Gu Xi did not move at all. Seeing this scene, Ice Face’s gaze changed slightly. He did not dare to believe that his attack was easily neutralized by Gu Xi.
This time, he withdrew the contempt in his eyes, and the frosty power surging around his body became even denser. His entire person seemed to be carved out of ice and snow. He waved the Frost Sword, and countless fallen leaves floated down like snowflakes in the sky.
“Three Feet of Ice!” Ice Face shouted.
However, in the next second, the Frost Sword fell to the ground. The powerful aura gathered at the tip of the sword dissipated just like that. Even the palm of the tiger that had been hit felt a slight numbness.
“Who is it?”
Gu Xi suddenly realized that Ice Face had been disarmed by a single fallen leaf. In his heart, he praised this person’s profound skill. This person could disarm an opponent with a mere leaf?
“Leng Yun, don’t be rude. Did you forget what I taught you?”
The old voice was full of vigor. Only then did Gu Xi realize that Ice Face’s name was Leng Yun.
Leng Yun’s expression instantly became respectful. “Your disciple doesn’t dare neglect Master’s teachings.”
Gu Xi felt someone pat his shoulder. He turned his head around and saw that an old man had appeared behind him. He stroked his beard and said, “Young man, you’re not bad. It seems that Shen Tianyi’s disciple this time is quite talented.”
The old man had an ordinary aura. He wore a gray robe without any markings and did not carry a sword. He looked like an ordinary old man who was just walking around.
However, his every move carried a sense of extraordinariness. Moreover, there were not many people in the sect who could call Shen Tianyi by his name. When Gu Xi met his turbid eyes, he seemed to see a sharp sword intent. The old man in front of him was not simple.
“Greetings, Elder Xie.”
The dim light in Xie Daofeng’s eyes flashed and disappeared. That familiar feeling of being watched once again surged into Gu Xi’s heart. Gu Xi thought that this old man had suddenly appeared behind him, but then again, he could have already been lurking here long ago.
