Chapter 5248
Kai was stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect Mo Chen to invite him to join the Sword Sect.
He thought for a moment and said, “I appreciate your kindness, but I only want revenge now, so I’m afraid I don’t have time to stay in the Sword Sect to practice.”
Hearing this, Mo Chen stroked his gray beard, his smile remained, but his eyes were more serious: “Young man, I know you have concerns and are afraid of being involved in the dispute between our Sword Sect and Divine Sword Villa.
But you are proficient in the swordsmanship of the Sword Sect, and you have a close relationship with our Sword Sect. How can I watch you bury this great talent?”
He stepped aside to make way for the open space in the middle of the yard, and in his hand, he found an ordinary wooden sword. The blade was mottled, and it was obvious that it had been used for many years.
“Come on, let’s just spar for a bit, and stop when you’re done. If you can last a hundred moves under my hand, or beat me by one or two moves, I will never again mention letting you join the Sword Sect, and I will let you go immediately.”
Kai frowned. He didn’t want to be an enemy of the former Sword Sect leader, but the other party was determined and obviously didn’t intend to let them go easily.
He glanced at Hu Mazi beside him and saw that he was also helpless. He could only bite the bullet and said, “Senior, my strength is low and I am afraid I cannot be in your eyes.”
“It’s okay, just do your best.”
Mo Chen waved his hand, pointing the wooden sword casually at the ground, “Go ahead.”
Kai took a deep breath, and the spiritual power in his body circulated. The Dragon Slaying Sword hummed and golden light flowed.
He knew that this battle was unavoidable and he had to fight with all his strength.
His body moved, and his sword skills were unleashed. The sword light was like a gurgling stream, sweeping towards Mo Chen with an endless attack.
Mo Chen’s eyes lit up and he praised, “Good.”
The wooden sword in his hand was swung lightly, seemingly slowly, but he was always able to block the Dragon-Slaying Sword at the critical moment.
The sound of “ding ding dang dang” continued to ring out. Although Kai’s sword moves were fast, he was still unable to break through Mo Chen’s defense.
That ordinary wooden sword seemed to have life in his hands. Sometimes it was like the roots of an old tree, steady as Mount Tai; sometimes it was like a snake emerging from a cave, incredibly swift.
After dozens of moves, Kai’s forehead was covered with sweat and he was shocked.
He could feel that Mo Chen was not using his full strength at all. Every block he made was just right, which not only neutralized his attacks but also did not hurt him at all, as if he was instructing him on his swordsmanship.
“Senior, if you don’t try your best, I will admit defeat.”
Kai put away his sword and stepped back, saying in a deep voice.
Mo Chen smiled and said, “Okay, then I will show you the true essence of the Sword Sect’s swordsmanship.”
As soon as he finished speaking, his body shook and the wooden sword attacked with a powerful momentum.
This sword seemed ordinary, but it made Kai feel that there was no way to avoid it, and he could only hold his sword horizontally to block it.
“clang!”
With a loud bang, Kai felt a huge force coming, and the Dragon Slaying Sword almost slipped out of his hand. He was shocked and retreated repeatedly, with his blood surging.
At this moment, Mo Chen suddenly put away his left hand, holding the sword with only his right hand, and said lightly: “I will use one hand, you try again.”
A hint of stubbornness and unwillingness to admit defeat flashed in Kai’s eyes, and he raised his sword and stepped forward again.
He combined the “Liuyun Sword Technique” with the sword intent he had comprehended, and his sword moves became more fierce and the golden light was more dazzling.
However, even though Mo Chen only used one hand, his sword was still as strong as a copper wall and no matter how Kai attacked, he could not shake it at all. Instead, he was repeatedly in danger during Mo Chen’s seemingly random counterattacks.
After dozens of moves, Mo Chen raised his wooden sword and it landed accurately on the spine of the Dragon Slaying Sword.
Kai felt his wrist go numb and he could no longer hold the Dragon Slaying Sword. It flew out of his hand and stuck into a vegetable field not far away with a clang.
Kai stood there in a daze, looking at his empty hands, feeling mixed emotions.
He tried his best, even at the cost of burning some of his spiritual energy, but he couldn’t even defeat one hand of the opponent. Is this the strength of a top swordsman?
