After blocking Mu Xuan's attack, Lu Yan also counterattacked. Moreover, he wanted to kill Mu Xuan with one strike so that Mu Xuan wouldn't have the strength to retaliate.

"Thousand Layers of Jade Waves!"

Layers of spiritual power waves attacked Mu Xuan.

After a single round, Mu Xuan's ice screen was shattered. The remaining power didn't diminish as it continued to attack Mu Xuan.

Mu Xuan was prepared for such a situation. He sneered and released his defense against Lu Yan's Thousand Layers of Jade Waves.

Although he had learned from the unknown handkerchief that freezing ice covered thousands of miles was far more powerful than when he fought with Jiang Qing and was able to defend and attack both ways, Mu Xuan's cultivation was much lower than Lu Yan's, so he had no choice but to hold back.

After Mu Xuan unleashed his Heaven Battling Arena, Lu Yan's attack was blocked. However, Mu Xuan had paid a heavy price for it. The problem of his cultivation being weaker than his opponent was obvious.

Since Lu Yan had already attacked, how could Mu Xuan have any chance of fighting back? After launching another wave of attacks, Mu Xuan could only defend with no chance of fighting back.

He knew that he couldn't continue like this, but he could still self-destruct his spiritual tool in front of Jiang Qin's pregnancy level cultivation. But for a peak Spirit Severing expert like Lu Yan, he simply couldn't stop him.

But aside from these, what other methods did he have to block Lu Yan's attacks and counterattack?

Mu Xuan even felt that choosing to fight with Lu Yan to end this dispute was the wrong choice. Against an ordinary Spirit Severing expert, he still had the strength to fight. Facing a direct descendant like Lu Yan who was trained by a powerful force, it was hard to say if he could defeat his opponent even if he was on the same level.

Lu Yan's background was incomparable to Jiang Qin's, and the cultivation he obtained was even more incomparable. Not to mention Lu Yan, whose cultivation was much higher than his.

However, since he had already done it, there was no longer any possibility of regret. There was no room for regret, no matter how difficult it was, he still had to persevere.

Suddenly, Mu Xuan thought of the greatest treasure that Li Pan had left him, a martial skill, the Heaven Battling Nine Style. Although the grade wasn't very high, only low-rank Earth Realm, this was the only Earth Realm martial skill that he was proficient in. Furthermore, after using the advanced Green Peak, he would activate the Heaven Battling Arena with all his might to block Lu Yan's attack and create an opportunity for himself.

Lu Yan, who had realized Mu Xuan's intention, sneered, "Brat, I won't give you any chance this time. No matter how good your methods are, I won't let you escape from my palm this time!"

He knew that Lu Yan had suffered a great loss at his hands and would never give him a chance, but he was confident that he had more spirit artifacts than Lu Yan. Moreover, he actually had quite a few Earth Grade spirit artifacts, but they were not refined and could not be used well.

There were only three items that had been refined. Because the Heaven Battling Platform was widely used, it was also the one that he valued the most. However, this didn't mean that he could only use the Heaven Battling Platform for defense.

Thus, after the Heaven Battling Arena was fully activated, he even took out the handkerchief and placed it in front of him as a second defense.

However, no matter how much effort Mu Xuan put in, Lu Yan wouldn't let him succeed easily. Lu Yan snorted coldly and took out an Earth Grade spirit artifact to use the power of the spirit artifact to attack Mu Xuan again.

"Heaven Severing Incantation, Soul Severing!"

A sharp sword qi shot out at Mu Xuan. The Heaven Battling Arena was only able to resist for a bit before it was pushed back. No matter how hard Mu Xuan tried to call for it, it couldn't stop.

This was a fear that came instinctively from Battling Heavens. He felt that this attack was enough to threaten its life and could be counted as intelligent. It knew how to avoid benefits and wasn't willing to cooperate with Mu Xuan.

In order to defend against Lu Yan's attack, he had no choice but to activate his handkerchief to its fullest extent. Although the rank of his handkerchief was unclear, Mu Xuan was certain that it was definitely not low, or even an Earth Ranked Exquisite. This was because he might not be able to activate it if he did not have a close connection with the handkerchief.

However, Mu Xuan had also discovered that the spirituality within the handkerchief wasn't as strong as that of the Battling Heavens brothel. This meant that his master had suffered a great loss. Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken so long and he wouldn't have reacted at all.

Seeing that Mu Xuan had only used a handkerchief in front of him to block his Heaven Severing Art, Lu Yan felt disdain.

What, my god, is giving up just like that?" He even took out a handkerchief that a woman used to make a fool of herself? "If you don't have any spiritual tools, just say it. I have a lot of them, so I can lend you some!

However, his eyes never left the Heaven Battling Terrace because Lu Yan could not believe that the Heaven Battling Terrace with its spiritual nature would be afraid of his Heaven Severing Art. The fame of the Heaven Battling Terrace was not just for show! But what happened today? He was actually afraid of his own attacks?

Even Mu Xuan was puzzled. This had never happened before! It seemed that he had to pay attention to this matter in the future. Don't fall into his trap at such a crucial moment.

Mu Xuan didn't respond to Lu Yan's sarcasm. He had never felt that these words would have any effect on a person like him. It was just a waste of words.

He faintly smiled and tightly stared at the handkerchief. He wanted to see whether or not this handkerchief would be able to resist Lu Yan's attack and create an opportunity for him.

After all, he had done his best. If he had waited for two years, no, only one year, Mu Xuan believed that he would definitely have the strength to fight against Lu Yan. He didn't need to look at the eyes of others and act accordingly.

The seemingly weak and fragile handkerchief was actually able to withstand Lu Yan's Heaven Severing Art. Mu Xuan heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he was ready to attack. He would be able to attack once Lu Yan's Heaven Severing Art was completely neutralized.

The Heaven Severing Art was blocked by the handkerchief that he looked down upon. Lu Yan was shocked. The Battlestage, which he valued so highly, didn't display a tyrannical strength. It was only an inconspicuous handkerchief. To be able to block his attack, this was truly inconceivable.

Seeing that the Heaven Severing Art was about to be completely dissolved, the corners of Mu Xuan's mouth slightly curled. He smiled and said, "Lu Yan, this time, it's my turn to attack. Heh heh. Now that you're ready, I won't hold back like you."

Then, with a grave expression on his face, he wielded his green mountain in his hand and slashed out. An extraordinary sword qi shot out towards Lu Yan.
