Chapter 26: Sword Momentum!
In the arena, the figures of Lu Li and Fei Bin suddenly separated.
Blood flowed like a fountain from Fei Bin's left hand; one could see that three of his fingers had been sliced off by Lu Li's sword!
This outcome caused everyone on both sides of the arena to gasp, especially those from the Liu Mansion.
A glimmer of intense hope flashed in their eyes.
One must know, the opponent was a master among the Songshan Thirteen Taibao, and not some filler ranked at the bottom.
Great Songyang Hand Fei Bin, the Third Taibao of Songshan!
Such a master had three of his fingers sliced off by a single sword strike from Lu Li.
This strike did not just defeat Fei Bin; it was equivalent to completely destroying his future possibility of wielding the Great Songyang Hand.
Xiang Danian gripped his longsword tightly.
Recalling the days of learning his craft under Liu Zhengfeng, his own talent had been the most outstanding among the disciples of the Hengshan Sect.
Back then, Liu Zhengfeng and Mo Da had even personally praised him, saying he would surely surpass his master in the future.
"There's simply no comparison; he is even stronger than he was that day at the Liu Mansion..." Liang Fa, standing beside him, seemed already accustomed to this and felt not even the slightest urge to compare himself.
On the contrary, it was more of a sense of glory.
Let me introduce him, this is my senior brother.
He is just that fierce!
Are the Taibao of the Songshan Sect impressive? My senior brother hacked one into a cripple with a single sword strike!
If people of later generations were to see Liang Fa's current expression, they would surely be reminded of the soldier responsible for guarding the warehouse under Li Yunlong in the TV series *Drawing Sword*.
Smug. GIF And at this moment, intense pain traveled from Fei Bin's left hand to his body, causing even his facial features to twist for a moment.
For the first time, he felt fear from Lu Li's longsword, felt a threat to his own life.
The last time he had such an experience, his martial arts had not yet been fully perfected, and that time, it was a young him challenging a strong opponent.
In the end, he killed the opponent and achieved the reputation of his Great Songyang Hand!
But now, it was he himself being defeated by the younger generation.
And his most prideful Great Songyang Hand had actually had its fingers cut off by someone!
Ridiculous!
A dignified Songshan Taibao, actually being "violated" by a second-generation disciple of Huashan!
Such humiliation was impossible for him to accept, and it even made Fei Bin feel a trace of hallucination—the opponent was not even twenty years old, right? If this matter were to spread throughout the pugilistic world, he, Fei Bin, would never be able to hold his head up again!
Not just him; behind him, Baiban Shaxing and Qinghai Yixiao had completely set aside their previous contempt.
The master and disciple duo had roamed the pugilistic world, burning, killing, and looting, committing every evil, yet they were still able to live until now; besides relying on ruthless methods and high-level martial arts, they also possessed a cautious heart.
If they had not taken Lu Li to heart at the beginning, then now, they were treating Lu Li as a long-established master of the pugilistic world.
At the very least, he had to be on the same level as Zuo Lengchan!
Perhaps, Lu Li was even stronger.
The two reached this conclusion in their hearts, but the next moment, they were stunned themselves, feeling that the conclusion they had reached was incredible.
"No wonder Alliance Master Zuo wants to deal with Huashan and Hengshan, to unify the Five Mountains.
" The two looked at Lu Li, seemingly having found the reason for Zuo Lengchan's aggressive stance toward the other four sects.
Such a person must not be left alive!
No one mocked Fei Bin.
Immortal Crane Hand Lu Bai, White-Headed Immortal Baitou Xianweng, Bald Eagle Tuying, Qinghai Yixiao, and Baiban Shaxing.
The five of them walked silently to Fei Bin's side; the six stood together, their killing intent overflowing like mist.
Fei Bin tore off a piece of his garment, bound his left hand tightly to stop the bleeding, and then drew his longsword with his right hand.
His Great Songyang Palm could no longer be used, so he could only use a sword.
"Lu Li,
you are very strong."
"But you must die today!
Everyone here must die."
Boom!
True Qi erupted violently from the bodies of the six.
Without any communication, they surrounded Lu Li in an instant.
At the same time, the remaining masked men also launched a fierce charge against Liang Fa and the others.
A life-and-death bloody battle began in an instant!
Fei Bin charged up first, boundless killing intent pouring out along the broad blade of his sword.
A powerful sword strike that almost sealed off all of Lu Li's paths of retreat.
Facing such a sword strike, Lu Li's expression remained as usual.
A casual thrust of his sword forced Fei Bin to withdraw his attack.
But the next moment, Lu Bai's Immortal Crane Hand suddenly reached out from the sword light, the technique nimble, like the beak of an immortal crane, pecking toward Lu Li's chest.
Meanwhile, Sha Tianjiang and Bo Chen pressed forward simultaneously, surrounding Lu Li from the left and right.
These two were different from ordinary Songshan Sect disciples; they belonged to a branch, and the weapons they used were not the standard swords of the Songshan Sect, but two sabers.
The blades were sharp, with hidden murderous intent.
Even if the blades did not reach the body, one could feel the immense threat within them.
In a split second, Lu Li was caught in the encirclement of four masters.
There was almost no one in the pugilistic world who could dodge a combined attack from such four masters; if any one of these four's strikes hit Lu Li, he would have only death as an option.
Meanwhile, Qinghai Yixiao and Baiban Shaxing arrived behind Lu Li.
The martial arts styles of the two were different from the four from the Songshan Sect; if they combined, it would instead weaken their power.
Therefore, the two of them came behind Lu Li, their cold eyes, like those of venomous snakes, staring at Lu Li, ready at any moment to harvest Lu Li's life.
But Lu Li's swordsmanship had already reached its peak.
When a person can reach the extreme in a certain aspect, they can walk out a miracle that belongs to themselves.
Lu Li's sword suddenly left its sheath; the sword light pierced forward like the most magnificent silk, swift and gorgeous, stunningly beautiful yet perilously dangerous.
The four Great Protectors of the Songshan Sect saw it clearly: Lu Li's sword did not belong to any move of the Huashan Sword Technique.
Yet everyone, upon the first glance, could know that this was the swordsmanship of the Huashan Sect.
His sword moves were not Huashan Sword Technique, yet Lu Li's sword pierced out an entire Huashan!
What a terrifying sword strike!
The chilling sword wind could almost freeze one to the bone marrow, and the cold, clear sword light was even brighter than the moonlight.
This sword strike left the four of them at a loss!
In a flash of lightning, the dust had already settled.
Lu Li thrust his sword out, winning through perilous danger.
No one could describe the ingenuity and speed of this sword strike, nor could anyone imagine the ferocity and decisiveness of it.
It was precisely such a sword strike that suddenly forced back the offensive of Lu Bai and the other three.
Even with the four of them joining forces to execute the high-level moves of the Songshan Sect, they could not block the Huashan Sword Intent contained within Lu Li's long sword!
That's right, after this sword strike, one of Lu Li's feet had already stepped into the realm of Sword Intent!
He had lived on Huashan for these years, practicing sword and breathing exercises on Huashan every day.
On Huashan, he saw the waves of the forest, the sea of clouds, the ice and rime, and the Purple Qi coming from the east.
Even though Lu Li practiced the Five Mountains Sword Technique and Dugu Nine Swords, which were more exquisite than the Huashan Sword Technique, what influenced his martial path most strongly was still Huashan.
It was not just the martial arts on Huashan, but also the people and things on Huashan.
Therefore, his Sword Intent was a Sword Intent that belonged to Huashan!
This sword strike was as if a mountain were collapsing!
Facing such terrifying momentum, the four Great Protectors of Songshan held on for less than a single breath before their figures retreated violently.
One sword strike, forcing back the four Great Protectors of Songshan!
And the next moment, Baiban Shaxing and Qinghai Yixiao suddenly appeared from behind Lu Li, their Soul-Summoning Banner and Judge's Order smashing toward Lu Li's back simultaneously.
Boom—!
Violent True Qi and bizarre weapons instantly buried Lu Li.
But the next moment, both of their bodies flew out at the same time.
While in the air, fresh blood sprayed wildly from their mouths.
Bang!
With two dull thuds, their bodies landed on the ground, already turned into lifeless corpses.
One could see their chests were sunken, their bodies sprawled on the ground like tattered cotton.
It was as if they had been crushed to death by a mountain!
