Rising from Small Cloud Rain Technique

The Sword Qi swept across in all directions, silver radiance flashing in their eyes. Ji An understood that even though this attack seemed grand, his opponent was still holding back significantly.

An attack from a Sword Cultivator with or without Sword Intent is a completely different concept.

Moreover, during a duel between two people, there’s no need to release such superficial attacks when one isn’t moving.

A focused assault that breaks through at a single point is always stronger than a wide-range strike.

’Looks like if I don’t show some skills, Senior Brother will be testing me for a while longer!’

Ji An held back no longer, driving his Magical Power wildly through his Immortal Veins, the Metal Dao Seed in his acupoints shining brightly.

He aligned his right index and middle fingers, raising and lowering his arm. The pale golden Metal Qi radiated like a river running against the current.

Attack against attack, without any trickery.

His choice in response would plainly reveal the difference between the two.

The moment the golden torrent flashed, Li Haoran’s flying sword rang in excitement and joy.

A sharp aura pervaded, converging a lethal Divine Intent of All Things Wither. Li Haoran felt the frost wind cutting across his face, like cold air slicing through.

His eyes shone brightly with delight; being a Metal Element Dao Body, he easily sensed the contained Divine Intent, comparable to his understanding of the First Layer of Sword Intent!

’This is the level of a Spirit Farmer? With such skills, I could believe he’s a Sword Cultivator! Finally, a worthy opponent at the same tier.’

The golden and silver light streams crashed into each other like two high-speed trains on the same track colliding fiercely.

Silence thundered, leaving the world in stillness.

The golden surge scattered the silver torrent, rolling back towards his opponent.

This outcome was within Ji An’s expectations. His Magic Technique carried an abundant Geng Metal Technique Intent, to some extent amounting to an attack augmented with Sword Intent like that of a Sword Cultivator.

Li Haoran became even more exhilarated, laughing loudly. Without dodging, he charged downward, a silver line emerging brilliantly, overshadowing everything else.

Light condensed into a blade, a single sword splits the waves!

The golden torrent was severed in half by the Dual Sword Intent attack, Ji An’s pupils suddenly contracted.

’Very strong, but I wasn’t using my full strength either!’

Ji An again wielded the Geng Metal Spirit-Slaying Sword, intensively infusing it with magic.

Miniature flying swords hovered in the air, forming a sword array, dragging golden light towards the target.

The opponent’s speed was too fast, he still needed to employ wide-range strikes to hit, though this time the attack was much more focused than before.

There is no doubt about the Sword Cultivator’s strength, but they specialize in attack against attack, speed over slowness, with weaker defenses.

If their speed can be slowed, and a saturated strike applied, theoretically, they could be easily taken down.

Of course, this is just a theory.

Ji An’s hands blurred in motion, another Spell was released.

A white fog several meters wide surged like a torrent of bleeding, clawing its way towards Li Haoran.

The Profound Nether Daoist Qi, this Magic Technique has only one effect; its endless cold can instantly freeze the opponent.

If one cannot timely escape this area, they will soon turn into an ice sculpture.

Water nourishes all things, but when Spirit Water turns to ice, it can freeze everything.

As the white mist rolled out, frost extended over the black rock, and heavy snowflakes danced over this fiery landscape.

Li Haoran’s eyes shone brighter; merging with his sword and blending with light, he swung a blade through the Profound Nether Daoist Qi with Dual Sword Intent.

Inwardly he understood his junior brother’s intention, aiming to slow his speed with extreme cold, and typically, this approach was flawless.

Had it been before his journey to the Far North, such an attack would indeed hinder him greatly.

But now, having comprehended the Icy Cold Sword Intent, he had strong immunity against attacks leaning more towards Magic Intent than tangible forces.

As long as he remains in such an environment for a short period, the damage is minimal.

His vertical sword speed completely allowed him to reduce the damage to a manageable and battle-uninterrupted level.

This approach contrasts with other cultivators seeking unscathed victories. Li Haoran prefers a tactic where minor injuries trade for greater wounds or even lives.

Such practice improves efficiency and conserves Magical Power.

His strategy resulted from countless real-world experiences testing this conclusion.

Ji An’s eyes narrowed instinctively, being locked onto by sharp sword lights, raising a sensation in him of inevitability and indefensibility.

He gathered his will, realizing that his opponent’s Sword Intent was accompanied by a slight spirit soul attack, which astonished him.

Yet, it wasn’t the time for surprise. Responding instinctively, he cast another Spell, firing the Fire Dragon Heaven-Burning Technique.

A red dragon surged forth like a living creature, waves of heat following closely.

At the same time, the Earth-Departing Flame Banner suddenly unfurled, revealing the elegance of this previously dormant Spiritual Artifact.

Heavenly flames fell like a river of stars, tailing after the fire dragon.

Ice and fire in two realms. I wonder how it feels for the opponent!

The firelight expanded in his vision, and Li Haoran’s surprise exceeded Ji An’s; he felt as if he stood on an erupting volcano, engulfed by overwhelming fire fiends.

Metal, Water, and Fire Elements, his opponent successively demonstrated three high-level Magic Techniques, seamlessly interconnected.

’Excellent response!’

He exclaimed inwardly; possessing control over so many Magic Techniques is unsurprising, but the potent Technique Intent power each holds was alarming even to him.

Due to his special physique, he had profound insights into the Metal Element, allowing him to comprehend Dual Sword Intent smoothly.

The second layer’s icy trait isn’t actually from the Water Element but rather power simulated by Metal Element, adding a layer of transformation.
