#728 - Chapter 727: Fighting for supremacy in the same realm (This chapter has 4700 words. Thank you

The object Ge Yang threw was a semi-circular jade disc, similar in function to the Geng Metal Essence Qi Slip, but instead of releasing energy, it locked down space for defense.

Yuan Shisan consecutively struck out with a dozen or so blows, all of which were blocked, unable to break through this barrier.

"Retreat!"

Zhang Yuanjing shouted in a low voice, already taking out the Heavy Earth Spell Sword, conjuring several earth walls three zhang in front of Ge Yang.

Yuan Shisan transmitted his thoughts: "Yuanjing, wait for me to smash that turntable!"

The turntable he referred to was the six swords that had formed a Taiji-shaped vortex.

"He has a spatial defense magic treasure, you can't break it. Retreat first!"

Zhang Yuanjing was uncertain what changes Ge Yang, who had already reached the Great Perfection of the Core Formation stage, would have in the Myriad Swords Returning to Origin, but its power would definitely be even greater.

The Bijing Suanni beast smelled danger and quickly retreated to Zhang Yuanjing's side, but Yuan Shisan still leaped onto the earth wall, wanting to smash open the jade disc's defense with his cudgel.

At this moment, countless sword shadows shot out from the vortex, striking towards the earth wall and Yuan Shisan.

Relying on his strong protective golden light, Yuan Shisan didn't take these sword shadows seriously, and with a wave of his Hunkun Cudgel, charged against the sword shadows.

"Bang! Bang bang! Bang bang bang—"

The sword shadows crashed into him like raindrops, each strike knocking him back, and the protective golden light flickered on and off.

The golden-backed great ape roared angrily, furiously waving the long cudgel in his hand to smash the sword shadows, but the sword shadows were extremely fast, always drilling through the gaps and hitting him.

Beneath his feet, the earth wall endured a large number of sword shadows, and only lasted for a breath before three of them exploded in succession.

Zhang Yuanjing said in a deep voice: "Suanni beast, you go outwards, escape his attack range, and then find an opportunity to attack from behind!"

The Bijing Suanni beast roared softly, turned its head and darted backwards, quickly disappearing.

Zhang Yuanjing waved his sword and conjured five more earth walls, and then two more earth prisons, blocking in front of him.

"Brother Ape, retreat to my side first! Don't be reckless!"

Yuan Shisan heard his tone was a bit stern, and dared not disobey, operating the Nine Revolutions Golden Body to the extreme, his whole body shining with golden light like the sun, and then turned and leaped, landing in front of Zhang Yuanjing.

"Yuanjing, I'm not afraid of these sword shadows, let me—"

Zhang Yuanjing was too lazy to talk to him, and directly put him into the spirit beast pouch.

After fighting fiercely for more than ten breaths, Zhang Yuanjing successively conjured dozens of earth walls, all of which were broken by the sword shadows. As time passed, the sword shadows flying out from the Taiji vortex became increasingly fierce.

"Master, that jade disc is quite magical, it can absorb spiritual power from the heavens and earth."

Zhang San's voice suddenly came from his ear.

Zhang Yuanjing dropped his divine sense onto the jade disc, and indeed saw that this object, while locking the space, was also constantly condensing pure spiritual power, continuously sending it into the Taiji vortex.

No wonder Ge Yang was able to become stronger as he fought!

Zhang Yuanjing's mind turned, waving his sword to conjure several earth prisons to block behind him, and then took off his flying sword and flew away.

Back then, when fighting Ge Yang at Erlong Mountain, Yu Tianwan had specifically said that if you encounter a Thousand Swords Sect cultivator using Myriad Swords Returning to Origin, if your escape technique is not strong, you must not run away, otherwise you will be chased to death.

Zhang Yuanjing also heard the Fire Crow Daoist explain the key points afterwards. However, today's situation is different from the last time. This person has an extra jade disc, which can not only protect himself, but also replenish mana, almost making up for all the flaws in this Myriad Swords Returning to Origin.

As soon as he escaped, Ge Yang immediately put away the jade disc and chased after him from behind, with the Taiji vortex always suspended behind his head, and the release of sword shadows never stopped.

Zhang Yuanjing still needed to use Earth Defense to block the sword shadows shooting from behind, so he was only flying close to the ground, in order to use the soil layer to save mana.

The two chased and fled, escaping for ten miles, and the Bijing Suanni beast appeared behind Ge Yang, quickly approaching him.

Ge Yang's face sank, feeling a bit tricky. He pondered for a moment, seeing that the black-haired, green-eyed beast was coming extremely fast, so he hardened his heart, turned his body around, and met the beast head-on.

At the same time, thousands of sword shadows enveloped the Bijing Suanni beast.

The Bijing Suanni beast had high intelligence, and when it saw Ge Yang coming to chase it, it turned its head and ran. Its escape technique was extremely fast, and it was also good at hiding, quickly shaking off the sword shadows and disappearing.

Ge Yang had no choice but to turn his head and chase Zhang Yuanjing again.

This time, Zhang Yuanjing did not directly escape, but instead continuously used Earth Defense and Earth Control techniques to resist the sword shadows.

Ge Yang couldn't wish for him to do this, so he exerted all his strength, urging the Taiji vortex to release even more fierce sword shadows.

Moreover, although this person was attacking with hatred, he was still very calm, and released the jade disc again to protect his body, not giving the Bijing Suanni beast a chance to sneak attack.

After consuming it like this for a while, Zhang Yuanjing once again took off his flying sword and fled. Without using the Yang Refining Umbrella, he actually had no way to deal with this Ge Yang.

In the end, he still lacked sufficiently sharp attack methods. Otherwise, even if Ge Yang locked the space with the jade disc, he would just be a standing target, and would definitely die if he was attacked.

It was a pity that Yuan Shisan was not good at escape techniques and his mind was not very bright, otherwise it would be more effective to let him attack Ge Yang from behind.

The two fought and retreated, repeatedly several times. Zhang Yuanjing carefully observed and found that although Ge Yang had the jade disc to assist him, the Myriad Swords Returning to Origin technique, after all, consumed a lot of mana, so this person was ultimately not as capable of fighting for a long time as he was.

Of course, this was also related to his repeated shifting of the battlefield. During the chase, Ge Yang's Taiji vortex could not get mana replenishment from the jade disc, so it relied entirely on his mana support. After several battles like this, he naturally consumed more.

He originally wanted to exhaust his opponent in this way, but Ge Yang had already calmed the anger in his heart, knowing that the enemy in front of him was too strong, especially since this person had two demon core realm Great Perfection demon beasts, which he could not suppress without Myriad Swords Returning to Origin, and if he insisted on going his own way, he would definitely die when his mana was exhausted.

So, after feeling that his mana had been consumed by more than half, he decisively gave up the pursuit and turned around to fly towards Erlong Mountain.

How could Zhang Yuanjing let him run away like this? He turned around and chased after him.

Ge Yang sneered contemptuously, and used the sect's escape technique, like a white light, breaking through the sky, and quickly disappeared.

Zhang Yuanjing was not in a hurry, and fully deployed his escape technique, trailing far behind. With Zhang San locking onto his aura, unless this person could pull away a hundred miles in one breath, he would not escape Zhang San's spiritual sense perception.

Of course, this was only one aspect. In the mountains and fields below, the Bijing Suanni beast had already quietly followed. This beast's tracking skills were also first-rate, and it was impossible for Ge Yang to escape by relying on escape techniques.

Several hours later, Ge Yang saw that there was no sign of Zhang Yuanjing in his divine sense, so he adjusted his direction and went due east. After traveling tens of thousands of miles, he went south again, crossing a hundred thousand miles before finding a secret valley bottom to sit down and recover his mana.

Half an hour later, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew from inside the valley. Ge Yang felt something was wrong, opened his eyes, and looked warily behind him.

However, he did not find anything wrong in his vision and divine sense.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

A burst of wind howls suddenly rang out, followed by endless yellow sand rolling in.

Ge Yang's eyes narrowed, and he raised his hand to release the jade disc, protecting his body. Then he sacrificed three red and three green six flying swords to clear the yellow sand.

"Rumble!"

A muffled thunder-like sound came from overhead, followed by more than a hundred boulders falling down.

Ge Yang raised his sword to cut through a few stones above his head, and more boulders fell down.

He persisted for a few breaths, feeling that this was too passive, so he put away the jade disc, used the flying sword to protect his body, and flew towards a certain direction, avoiding the constantly falling boulders.

Suddenly, a golden figure jumped out in front of him, holding a long cudgel and劈striking at him.

He had no time to dodge, so he could only lead three swords to collide with this cudgel.

"Clang!"

The three swords were knocked away, and the long cudgel swept towards him.

After this obstruction, he found a gap and jumped to the side, dodging this blow.

However, the long cudgel was like a whirlwind, covering him, entangled and not letting go.

He had no choice but to control the six swords to fight fiercely with it. At this time, he also understood that the one attacking him was the golden-haired giant ape.

The falling rocks above had long stopped, leaving only him and this monkey fighting fiercely. He felt a burst of sadness for no reason. A dignified Core Formation Great Perfection cultivator of the Thousand Swords Sect could only fight fiercely with the opponent's spirit beast.

After fighting for several rounds, he suddenly felt a chill on his back, as if some kind of danger was approaching.

The cautious habit developed over many years of battle made him unhesitatingly sacrifice the jade disc to defend with the method of locking space.

"Bang!"

A ray of light struck the empty space behind him, and then disappeared.Ge Yang did not see clearly what kind of spirit weapon it was, but he was really startled into a cold sweat. He was disturbed by the yellow sand, his divine sense could not reach far, and he had to fight fiercely with the golden-haired monkey. If the opponent still had such a sneak attack weapon, then his situation was really precarious.

Seeing Ge Yang release the jade disc, Yuan Shisan immediately followed Zhang Yuanjing's instructions, using the Nine Revolutions Golden Body to condense protective golden light, protecting his body, and then waving the cudgel to frantically smash the space locked by the jade disc.

Seeing this, Ge Yang understood that the opponent wanted to consume the jade disc, but he did not dare to put it away, otherwise he might not be able to defend against the sneak attack of that thing just now.

Ge Yang had no choice but to gather the swords into a wheel, rotate into a momentum, and then use the Myriad Swords Returning to Origin to bombard Yuan Shisan.

Then, this golden-haired monkey only endured a few blows before disappearing.

Countless sword shadows broke through the flying sand and flew out of the formation, but they could not find the figure of the cultivator.

Ge Yang remembered that the opponent had appeared in the valley without warning before, and this time's yellow sand was also like this, guessing that he must have a kind of hidden escape technique, and based on the fact that this person was practicing earth-based techniques, this technique was earth escape.

So, he then adjusted the attack direction of the sword shadows, shooting towards the earth.

Before the sword shadow hits the target containing spiritual energy, it is a phantom, so it is not affected by the soil layer, and goes straight into the depths of the ground.

However, there is still earth power in the soil, the deeper it goes, the stronger it becomes. The sword shadow is under this pressure, and it dissipates on its own when it reaches two hundred zhang.

Ge Yang swept the soil layer within a few hundred zhang, but did not force the enemy out. Knowing that this method would not work, he then broadcasted sword shadows to clear the yellow sand, and at the same time used escape techniques to fly outwards.

However, the yellow sand seemed endless. After clearing one piece, another piece came, always trapping him in it.When he acted, he had to put away the jade disc. For a time, he could not rush out of the sand formation, so he had to release the jade disc again, first for defense.

However, once he stood still, boulders would fall from above, forcing him to consume mana.

Ge Yang tried several times, but could not escape, so he took a talisman, its color was cyan and yellow, and patted it on his back. After half a breath, a strong wind rose out of thin air, carrying him to break through the yellow sand and rush straight into the sky, and then quickly escaped to the distance.

Zhang Yuanjing drilled out of the ground, shook his head, and took off his flying sword to chase after him.

This chase lasted for several days, escaping for more than 200,000 miles, before catching up with this person on the top of a high mountain.

Ge Yang was preventing him from suddenly attacking with earth escape, so he chose a huge rock, with a wide view around and scattered rocks.

Zhang Yuanjing knew that his mana was not much, and he could not maintain a long-term high-speed escape. This place was the place he chose for a decisive battle.

"Fellow Daoist, you have forced someone into a desperate situation. I wonder if you can tell me your name?" Ge Yang took out the jade disc and suspended it above his head, with six swords lined up, slowly rotating.

He asked himself that he still had many methods, but against the enemy in front of him, except for the Myriad Swords Returning to Origin, the rest could not be used much, and using them would only waste mana.

"This poor Daoist is Zhang Yuanjing of the Xuantian Sect." Zhang Yuanjing replied with a solemn expression, "Decades ago, this poor Daoist saw Fellow Daoist show great power at Huanjian Mountain, but failed to meet!"

Ge Yang sighed: "So the Huanjian Mountain formation was destroyed by Your Excellency! No wonder, no wonder! Only Your Excellency's strange earth escape technique can quietly sneak into the mountain. In the past thirty years, someone has repeatedly heard that your sect has a rising star who has repeatedly made achievements, but unfortunately I have never been able to see him. Today I bumped into him, I didn't expect that he is already at the same realm as someone!"

Zhang Yuanjing nodded in salute: "This poor Daoist is still the first time to fight against a fellow cultivator in the same realm since entering the Great Perfection realm, and it is still a life-and-death battle with the sect's old enemy, it is really an honor. Fellow Daoist, please!"

Ge Yang solemnly said: "This is also someone's honor! Fellow Daoist has a plan in mind, then someone will take action!"

Behind his head, the Taiji vortex had already formed, and a dark and deep aura burst out from it. The familiar thousands of sword shadows did not appear, only a giant sword revealed its sharpness.

"This is the second form of Myriad Swords Returning to Origin, the pinnacle of Core Formation cultivators! Take this!"

Ge Yang shouted violently, pushing forward the dual-handed magic formula, the jade disc's color suddenly darkened, and the surrounding spiritual power surged like a tide, and the giant sword rushed forward, showing its huge body.

This was a long sword that was fifteen or sixteen zhang long and flashed with colorful light. The sword's aura jumped non-stop, as if there were countless tiny swords walking on it.

As soon as this sword came out, the surrounding spiritual power was emptied. It seemed to be strongly pushed, slowly starting, then accelerating, and soon shot towards Zhang Yuanjing like a meteor streaking across the sky.

As early as the moment the giant sword was completely revealed, Zhang Yuanjing had taken the black mud object, operated the Qingtian Art, and strengthened his body. When this sword was cut out, he immediately changed to the Moving Mountain Art, calmly waiting.

With this sword's momentum, if he did not release the Yang Refining Umbrella, he would actually have no confidence to block it. If he released the Yang Refining Umbrella, it would inevitably affect his state of mind, which was tantamount to admitting that he was inferior to his opponent. Both were Great Perfection, but he was actually not perfect! After weighing it, he decided to try to rely on his own strength to fight Ge Yang.

Seeing that Zhang Yuanjing did not escape, Ge Yang suddenly smiled gloomily, and fiercely pointed the magic formula in his hand at the jade disc above his head. This jade was already dim, but at this time it shone brightly, drawing the spiritual power of the heavens and earth like a tide, all pouring into that giant sword.

"Bang!"

The jade disc was overwhelmed and shattered, and the tide of spiritual power that was rushing over in the distance suddenly stopped. However, the giant sword at this time had already been filled with spiritual power, carrying an unparalleled momentum, and flew down towards Zhang Yuanjing.

One after another earth walls appeared in front of the giant sword, but they were cut through in an instant. There were also earth prisons, with thick walls and empty in the middle, delaying the sword's momentum. But wherever the giant sword's edge went, everything was like chickens and dogs made of clay, shattered in response.

The sword's edge was like electricity, pointing directly at Zhang Yuanjing, only a few zhang away.

At this time, a five-colored umbrella rose up, turning into an invisible wall, blocking in front of the sword's edge.

This was another umbrella-shaped spirit weapon that Zhang Yuanjing rarely used - the Evil Repelling Umbrella.

"Boom! Snap! Snap snap snap!"

The greatsword struck the Luo Umbrella, and a powerful wave of energy slammed against the umbrella's surface, producing a series of cracking sounds.

The Luo Umbrella, beneath the greatsword, was like a small boat in a raging sea, rising and falling erratically, swaying uncontrollably, as if about to capsize and sink at any moment, yet stubbornly holding up a small space.

A terrifying force pressed down from the umbrella's surface, ceaselessly, layer upon layer, attacking relentlessly.

Zhang Yuanjing stretched out both hands, supporting the umbrella's surface, using the Mountain Moving Art to divide and bear the force, stubbornly withstanding this powerful assault.

Doubt and surprise flashed in Ge Yang's eyes, but he didn't think too much about it. Instead, he unleashed another sword strike, gathering the last bit of his remaining magical power, and slashed at Zhang Yuanjing beneath the protection of the Luo Umbrella.

Zhang Yuanjing weathered the initial difficulty, the immense force divided between his shoulders, using his bones as support. With a twist of his body, he used the force of the greatsword to shatter Ge Yang's flying sword with a single blow, then turned around and swung the other side of the great force, smashing it towards Ge Yang.

Even from dozens of feet away, Ge Yang could feel the wind pressure rushing towards him. He was already exhausted, but at this critical moment of life and death, in order to seek a glimmer of hope, he still activated all of his potential, urging the Tai Chi vortex formed by the six swords to meet the attack head-on.

"Boom!"

The immense force erupted, the Tai Chi shattered, and the six swords flew in all directions, breaking apart inch by inch.

Ge Yang had no more means of defense and was smashed into a pulp by the blow.

However, for Zhang Yuanjing, the crisis had not been eliminated. After the greatsword detached from the Tai Chi vortex, it existed independently. Therefore, even with the destruction of the Tai Chi, the sword remained, and the two forces that Zhang Yuanjing had divided still had not dissipated.

Zhang Yuanjing gritted his teeth and swallowed more of the black mud substance again. Taking advantage of the previous rotational momentum, he exerted force to attack the surrounding rocks.

For a time, only a continuous rumbling sound could be heard, with rocks flying all over the mountaintop, not stopping until half an hour later.

At this time, the mountaintop had been shortened by half, as if it had suffered a catastrophe.

Zhang Yuanjing, on the other hand, collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted, without even the strength to move a finger.
