There was no choice.

Chen Yao didn't expect Lan Xin to use such a lose-lose tactic.

Watching as the Thousand Edge Sword pierced through Lan Xin's shoulder and continued stabbing toward his throat, Chen Yao turned his defense and aimed for the Thousand Edge Sword that was stabbing at him.

"Zheng."

The Thousand Edge Sword struck the blade of the Heaven's Slaying Sword. Chen Yao stood horizontally in front of him as he endured the immense force coming from the Heaven's Slaying Sword. His figure continuously retreated until he was a thousand feet away.

What surprised Chen Yao was that the Thousand Edge Sword had also followed him. It stretched out to a distance of a hundred zhang, and as Chen Yao steadied himself, the power of the Thousand Edge Sword was also exhausted.

Then, the Thousand Edge Sword began to shrink backwards.

"Swish."

After the Thousand Edge Sword passed through Lan Xin's shoulder, it left her body. A gush of blood shot out. Lan Xin slightly frowned and turned around to look at Chen Yao. There was a trace of pain in her eyes, as well as a trace of admiration.

She looked at Chen Yao and said.

"It has been a long time since someone has forced me to this state, and your cultivation is not as high as mine. A Brilliant Sword Heart is indeed extraordinary."

Hearing Lan Xin's words, Chen Yao was slightly surprised. Lan Xin could actually see the brightness in his Sword Heart.

But come to think of it, Lan Xin already had a sword to break through all kinds of techniques. Just now, he had seen the flaws in the Yin Yang sword net and the Yin Yang sword shield consecutively, so it was reasonable for Lan Xin to see that he was a Brilliant Sword Heart.

After the surprise, he looked at Lan Xin with admiration.

A woman with such a strong temperament was truly not simple.

That was definitely something to sigh about.

If Lan Xin hadn't paid the price of getting injured, then the Thousand Edge Sword would have pierced through her shoulder and blocked her sword's momentum.

Even though Lan Xin was injured, Chen Yao was clear that the intense battle had just begun.

Chen Yao looked at Lan Xin.

"Since you can tell that I am Brilliant Sword Heart. "Then, please enlighten me."

The Heaven's Slaying Sword in Chen Yao's hand had already been inserted into the Sword of Rejuvenation's sheath. His tone turned sharp and a terrifying energy was gathering in his body.

"Of course."

Lan Xin snorted lightly, and her body disappeared from the spot.

In the next instant, he appeared in front of Chen Yao in a ghostly manner, less than thirty feet away from him.

Two small fishes appeared between her eyebrows.

Her entire body seemed to have been split into two. The left side of her body was filled with an extremely cold and sinister energy, while the right side of her body was filled with scorching energy.

He was like a god, but also like a devil.

The two forces on her body were entangled, and her long hair was flying wildly.

On the other hand, the Thousand Edge Sword in her hand revolved around crazily, as if it was a living entity.

It was like a stalk of seaweed growing on its own accord.

It was like an enlarged version of the cudgel, enveloping Lan Xin's body within.

It was created to be the free extension of the Thousand Edge Sword's blade with thousands of edges …

Lan Xin's two hands, which represented the power of yin and yang, intertwined together.

The instant when both hands were clasped together, it was also a moment where the yin and yang powers fused together … ….

"Tai."

Lan Xin snorted lightly.

Crackling sounds suddenly came from the entire sword ball. Following that, the sword ball was dyed with the two colors of Yin and Yang.

This was not only a color stain, but also a transfer of energy.

At this moment, Lan Xin, the Yin and Yang energies, and the sword ball formed by the Thousand Edge Sword, had magically merged into one.

"Annihilate."

Lan Xin's two fists, which were locked together, suddenly swung in Chen Yao's direction.

The sword ball wrapped around Lan Xin's body began to spin crazily. The black and white light emitted by the entire sword ball brought along a terrifying might. Like a mutated sun, it shot towards Chen Yao.

"False Saint rank sword skill."

When Lan Xin displayed this move, Chen Yao was greatly astonished.

Because of the Brilliant Sword Heart, he was extremely sensitive towards sword skills.

The power of yin and yang was different from the power of the five elements and was extremely difficult to control.

Yin Yang energy was not a simple source of elemental energy, but the power of the Dao. One had to comprehend it on their own, otherwise it would be difficult for even chaotic origin energy to evolve into yin and yang energy.

Therefore, even if Chen Yao could instantly clone and learn many powerful sword techniques, he did not have Yin Yang energy. Therefore, Chen Yao was unable to imitate Lan Xin's Yin Yang sword technique.

False Saint rank sword skill.

Looking at the incoming sword ball which was filled with Yin Yang energy, a trace of determination appeared in Chen Dazhi's eyes.

If he were to use the power of his meridian and the two hundred lines of Sword Drawing Arts combined, he would similarly be able to unleash a power equivalent to that of a False Saint level sword skill.

However, the key point was that Lan Xin's level was higher than his.

A peak Genuine Force cultivator and a peak Martial King cultivator. If they used a sword technique of the same level, the final result would be obvious even if there was just a little bit of thought.

"Flawless."

That's right, Chen Yao could only defeat Lan Xin by finding the flaw of her pseudo-Saint level sword skill, and then using the combined power of two hundred Sword Drawing Arts.

It was impossible for them to fight head on.

After he had used the power of his meridians and performed the two hundred parts of the Sword Drawing Arts, no matter what Lan Xin did, he would be exhausted and would have no fighting strength left.

Furthermore, when Lan Xin displayed her False Saint level sword skill, even if he were to directly cancel it out, Lan Xin would still be in a better condition than he was.

Only when he found the flaw in her sword technique and attacked her directly, causing her to suffer a backlash, would he be able to win.

Of course, this did not include using some trump cards.

"..."

He watched as the huge sword flew towards him.

Chen Yao gripped the Heaven's Severing Sword tightly, not moving at all.

He stared intently at the sword ball.

In Chen Yao's eyes, it was as if that sword ball had been gouged out. Every point, every line, and the energy fluctuations on it were clearly reflected in Chen Yao's eyes.

However, the key point was that the speed of the sword ball was extremely fast. Even though Chen Yao's sword heart was bright, it was still somewhat strenuous.

The faster the sword ball spun, the more Chen Yao was certain that this pseudo-Saint-level sword skill had quite a few flaws.

Since the Yin Yang energy was constant, what was the point of spinning it? Naturally, it was to cover up the flaw.

"Here."

Suddenly, Chen Yao's eyes lit up.

His entire body soared into the sky.

The sword ball was about to follow Chen Yao into the sky.

However, the Heaven Severing Sword had already been unsheathed from the Sword of Rejuvenation.

"Slash!"

Holding the sword in both his hands, Chen Yao descended from the sky like a bolt of lightning, chopping down with his Heaven Cleaving Sword in the direction of the sword ball.

"Whap."

When the Heaven's Slaying Sword landed on the sword ball, it did not emit much energy to resist the impact. Instead, it simply produced a sound like an eggshell being broken.
