The Mirror Master

Lu Bai’s move completely took Yun Luo by surprise.

As her Flying Sword missed, Lu Bai had already rushed in close.

Lu Bai was already tall and imposing. Having cultivated two Ultimate Skills, the White Tiger Stance and the Dragon Elephant Suppression Skill, he exuded the terrifying aura of a tiger descending a mountain, a True Dragon emerging from the sea, and a Giant Elephant charging!

Yun Luo had never seen such a display. She froze on the spot, completely forgetting to cast her Magic or use her Talismans.

Back on the island, her senior brothers and sisters had always just played around with her, never fighting for real.

In a flash, Lu Bai threw a punch!

That massive iron fist nearly covered her entire small face.

Yun Luo’s vision went black.

A vicious wind rushed at her, the force of the punch blowing her dangling hair buns upward.

Lu Bai’s fist stopped just in time, not harming Yun Luo in the slightest.

But even so, the rims of Yun Luo’s eyes turned slightly red.

She had been genuinely frightened just now. Her nose tingled, and she almost burst into tears.

But she quickly pursed her lips, clenched her fists, and her gaze hardened. "Brother Lu, you win! But I was careless. I didn’t dodge. Let’s go again."

"Alright!"

Lu Bai retreated, creating distance between them again.

Just as he steadied himself, Lu Bai noticed something strange.

He had just used Vajra Earth Splitting and shattered the ground beneath his feet.

But in the blink of an eye, the ground had returned to its original state, as if it had never been damaged.

Lu Bai subconsciously glanced at Yu Daoxuan, who was not far away.

From start to finish, she hadn’t looked up, still focused on the Mountain Demon Skin in her hands.

"Brother Lu, watch out!"

Yun Luo called out a reminder.

In their second exchange, Lu Bai repeated his tactic, dodging Yun Luo’s first sword strike and immediately using Vajra Earth Splitting to charge forward several dozen feet.

Yun Luo was prepared this time. After sending out her Flying Sword, she retreated to create more distance.

At the same time, she formed a hand seal for a Technique, preparing to cast Magic.

However, for those in the Qi Refining Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage, casting Magic wasn’t instantaneous; it required a casting process.

It was a short period, lasting one or two breaths depending on the strength of the Magic.

Seeing Yun Luo form the Technique seal, Lu Bai realized this. He gave her no chance to cast, suddenly unleashing the Silence Shocking Secret Technique.

A great roar!

Yun Luo’s entire body shook. The Magical Power that had just begun to gather at her fingertips was directly scattered by the ’Silent Shock’!

In her daze, her Flying Sword also lost control, unable to pursue Lu Bai.

Lu Bai charged forward once more.

Yun Luo slapped her Storage Pouch, and a Talisman appeared in her palm, which she instantly tore apart.

A burst of Magical Power erupted from her palm, swiftly enveloping her.

The two were now just inches apart!

Lu Bai stepped forward, bent his elbow, and executed the ’Armor-Breaking Demon-Subduing’ stance from the Vajra Demon-Subduing Fist.

This stance originated from the Vajra Demon-Slaying Pestle.

When unarmed, one didn’t need to be rigid about the form; the elbow, fingers, or edge of the fist could all unleash the power of the Vajra Demon-Slaying Pestle.

It concentrated the body’s entire strength into a single point, erupting with Armor Piercing force!

A glint of golden light surged from the tip of Lu Bai’s elbow. Combined with the Inner Strength from his Dragon Elephant Suppression Skill, it slammed heavily into the magical light shield in front of Yun Luo.

BANG!

The collision of flesh and blood against a magical Talisman erupted with a tremendous noise.

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

Immediately after, cracks appeared on the Protective Barrier around Yun Luo. They spread rapidly like a spiderweb before the barrier shattered in an instant, its Magical Power dissipating.

They stood face to face.

Lu Bai could knock Yun Luo down with a single move.

The match was decided.

Yun Luo stood frozen in place.

’Everything was fine yesterday. How did Brother Lu suddenly get so strong overnight?’

After these two exchanges, Lu Bai now had a clear understanding of a Qi Refiner’s methods and some of their weaknesses and openings.

’With the Silence Shocking Secret Technique and Vajra Earth Splitting, getting in close isn’t a problem.’

’The Dragon Elephant Suppression Skill, combined with Armor-Breaking Demon-Subduing, can break through their Protective Barrier.’

"Brother Lu, let’s go again."

Yun Luo found it a little hard to accept.

After all, she had finally found someone she could bully, and after just one night, she couldn’t beat him anymore.

Yun Luo said, "I wasn’t using my full strength just now. I underestimated you, Brother Lu. This time, I won’t hold back."

"Sounds good."

Lu Bai smiled.

The stronger Yun Luo was, the more excited he became, as it would better stimulate his own potential.

Yun Luo retrieved her Flying Sword, then secretly swapped it for another one from her Storage Pouch.

The previous one was only a Tier One Middle Grade Flying Sword.

This time, she switched to a Tier One Upper Grade Flying Sword.

Yun Luo thought for a moment, then put the Upper Grade Flying Sword back and went all out, switching to a Tier One Top Grade Flying Sword!

The two clashed again.

Lu Bai could clearly feel that Yun Luo’s Flying Sword was much faster and more difficult to deal with.

This time, let alone forcing out Yun Luo’s Protective Talisman, it was difficult to even get close without the Silence Shocking Secret Technique.

’So the little girl really was holding back before.’

Lu Bai was secretly amazed.

After beating Lu Bai several more times, Yun Luo became happy again.

Yun Luo said, a little smugly, "Brother Lu, why aren’t you using that Sound Wave Secret Technique from before? You don’t have to hold back."

"Let me catch my breath..."

Lu Bai said, "All that shouting is killing my throat."

The two fought for another two hours. Lu Bai once again unleashed the Silence Shocking Secret Technique, managing to find an opportunity to get close again.

In a panic, Yun Luo took out another Talisman from her Storage Pouch and tore it.

BANG!

Lu Bai once again used Armor-Breaking Demon-Subduing.

But this time, when it hit Yun Luo’s Magic Barrier, it only created a series of ripples.

Instead, Yun Luo used the force of the blow to retreat, create distance again, and pin Lu Bai down with her Flying Sword and Magic.

’I couldn’t break her Protective Talisman this time.’

Lu Bai frowned slightly.

Although Yun Luo had pinned Lu Bai, her face flushed red. Feeling a little embarrassed, she secretly glanced at Yu Daoxuan.

The Protective Talisman she had just used was actually a Tier Two Talisman, capable of withstanding a full-force attack from a Great Cultivator at the Early or Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment.

Strictly speaking, Lu Bai had already won.

She had cheated.

Yu Daoxuan just smiled and shook her head, not exposing her.

Lu Bai didn’t know the specifics of the Talisman. He just assumed that Yun Luo had been holding back before and wasn’t this time.

The two of them trained until evening.

If he couldn’t use the Silence Shocking Secret Technique, Lu Bai found it very difficult to get close.

Even when he did use the Silence Shocking Secret Technique to get close, he still couldn’t break Yun Luo’s Protective Talisman.

"I’ll rest for the night and try again tomorrow."

Lu Bai said, "I should be able to open my Seven Acupoints tonight."

Yun Luo snickered to herself.

’Forget opening the Seven Acupoints. Even if he opened all Nine Acupoints, he still wouldn’t be able to break my Tier Two Protective Talisman.’

Night fell.

Lu Bai cultivated the Dragon Elephant Suppression Skill, and before long, he smoothly opened his seventh acupoint.

The past two days of fighting with Yun Luo had consumed a massive amount of energy and stimulated his great potential, allowing him to open the seventh acupoint in such a short time.

Now, only the Double Yin Acupoint remained.

When dawn came, Lu Bai returned with some breakfast and toys. After playing with Yun Luo for a while, they began to spar again.

The day of the scheduled battle was tomorrow.

Time was short.

He had to find a way to break Yun Luo’s Protective Talisman!

Today, Yu Daoxuan wasn’t holding the Mountain Demon Skin. Instead, she sat quietly on a cushion, watching the two of them fight.

The morning passed.

Lu Bai’s Cultivation had improved, but the situation was no different from yesterday.

Even with the help of the Silence Shocking Secret Technique, allowing him to charge right in front of Yun Luo and unleash the entire Vajra Demon-Subduing Fist, he still couldn’t break through that Protective Talisman.
