Chapter 189 Battle for the Top
Without a doubt, it was the wood spirit!
It was also the energy source of the old tree, and even the root of the old tree's transformation into a spirit and into a real person.
The slender roots intertwined and wrapped the spirit inside, absorbing the wood energy from it continuously.
Now that the tree demon was dead, the spirit had returned to being ownerless.
Just as Wang Yu was about to reach out and grab it, Jiang Shenyi and Gu Youying above him withdrew at the same time.
Jiang Shenyi raised his finger and pointed at Wang Yu, and with his action.
A gravity instantly covered his body, making him unable to move.
Gu Youying slapped a palm, and the palm print hit his chest, trying to repel him.
Although they were fighting, they were also paying attention to the situation below, and it was impossible for others to pick peaches easily.
Bang!
Wang Yu stood still, resisting the palm, but never retreated a step.
"Hmm!" Jiang Shenyi's eyes flashed, "Northern Barbarian?"
Wang Yu was surrounded by blood evil, with unparalleled physical strength and huge condensed blood and qi. He looked like a unique symbol of the Northern Barbarians living on the ice field.
However, Wang Yu's facial features seemed to have nothing to do with the Northern Barbarians.
"Hmph!" Wang Yu relied on his physical strength, and his blood and qi rose a hundred times. He forcibly broke through the gravity suppression set by Jiang Shenyi and grabbed again.
The wood spirit was in hand, and the two geniuses failed to stop Wang Yu!
Of course, this was also related to their underestimation of Wang Yu.
"Interesting!" Jiang Shenyi's expression moved slightly. Seeing Bai Hao and Gu Youying confronting each other, he simply pulled himself away and flew down, raising his hand to press Wang Yu.
He wanted to test Wang Yu's quality.
After putting away the wood spirit, Wang Yu saw that Jiang Shenyi was facing him, and he did not dare to be careless, and directly drew out the Star Blade.
Activate the thunder bridge and water bridge in the body simultaneously.
Innate sword technique·Thunder Wave!
Incorporating the two true meanings of thunder and water, this sword technique was once a killer move of Wang Yu.
It is also the innate sword technique that he is most proficient in using.
On that day, he defeated Lan Yanfeng with this sword and became famous in one fell swoop!
With one sword strike, thunder and raging waves intertwined, forming a huge thunder vortex, which instantly engulfed the falling Jiang Shenyi.
"So he is the inheritor of the way of nature, no wonder he wants spirit spirit, not tree heart." The witch smiled.
Obviously he also knows something about the inheritance of Wuzong Zizhu's lineage.
"With his cultivation and age, it is really amazing that he can operate two true meanings to this extent at the same time. No wonder, no wonder..."
The witch understood that the old master had got another precious disciple and was showing off to them.
"Perhaps he can enter the realm of heaven and man that Zizhu can't enter." The old master smiled and had a very high evaluation of Wang Yu.
If Wang Yu had not been valued, he would not have given the Earth Spirit to Wang Yu as a reward.
There was a flash of lightning and thunder, and the vortex could draw the enemy into it and make it difficult to escape.
The muddy water in the swamp below was also pulled by the vortex and was constantly pulled into it, making the vortex turbid.
Suddenly, a huge destructive force erupted from the inside of the vortex, and the impact force shook everything apart.
Wang Yu was hit back by the impact and was also knocked back.
He suffered some injuries on his body, but he quickly recovered on his own.
Looking at Jiang Shenyi who was hit by his knife, the other party looked intact as well, and was not injured in the thunder wave just now.
"It's really not easy to deal with..." Wang Yu said inwardly.
It's been a while since he encountered a strong enemy. This time, fighting Jiang Shenyi is basically equivalent to challenging a real person. It's not an exaggeration to say that he is a strong enemy.
Jiang Shenyi lowered his head slightly. He glanced at his collar calmly, and there were some stains on it.
He was not completely unharmed. The surface of his skin was burning hot, as if he had just been frying in oil. The numbness that penetrated into his bones was caused by the raging power of thunder.
"I was careless!" Jiang Shenyi murmured, and with a flick of his fingertips, he neatly cut off the stained collar.
At the same time, tiny stones floated around him on the swamp.
Seeing this, Wang Yu's mind moved, and his mental power gathered, and seven purple bamboos appeared.
Jiang Shenyi raised his hand, and the stones suddenly shot towards Wang Yu.
The seven purple bamboos burst out with a large piece of purple light, and the barrage of attacks covered all the areas in front of him.
However, the purple bamboo leaves hit the stones, and they shattered like eggs hitting stones, and they could not be stopped very well.
Seeing this, a flash of lightning flashed, and Wang Yu disappeared at full speed.
"This stone also has true meaning attached to it!"
Wang Yu was amazed at Jiang Shenyi's various techniques for using true meaning, and was also amazed at the variety and power of this kind of true meaning he mastered.
Obviously just ordinary stones, but in the other party's hands, they fell like meteorites.
Jiang Shenyi waved his hand again, and those stones quickly drew an arc and chased Wang Yu.
Along the way, the stones could easily penetrate anything, and the kinetic energy did not decrease, and soon caught up with Wang Yu.
Wang Yu swung the knife continuously, and a large area of strong wind swept through. The knife also had true meaning attached to it, and then he broke the stones one by one.
"Do I need to use my true intention to fight against my true intention?" Wang Yu suddenly realized.
In fact, this is a fighting method that only the real person can use.
Seeing Jiang Shenyi move again, Wang Yu kept his pace, and a series of lightning exploded between his legs.
Soon, he approached Jiang Shenyi, and activated the four true intentions alternately, attaching them to the knife.
The sharpness of the wind, the destructive power of thunder, the flow of water, and the heaviness of the earth.
It was dazzling and overwhelming.
Jiang Shenyi had to look serious.
For the first time, he pinched his hands and used the innate fighting method.
Star repulsion!
Boom!
The knife light exploded, and thousands of thunders covered the entire swamp. At the same time, Wang Yu was bounced thousands of meters away by an invisible force and disappeared directly from the screen.
The thunder dissipated, and Jiang Shenyi was surrounded by innate energy, but his face was no longer as leisurely as before.
On his body, the luxurious water purple brocade clothes were torn, and the four knife wounds were extremely eye-catching, on the chest, abdomen, arms and thighs, and blood was pouring out.
In the impression left to the world, Jiang Shenyi had almost never been injured.
Now, he was injured.
At this moment, he had no time to care about the long-lost injuries on his body, and his eyes were fixed on the distance.
That was the direction where Wang Yu was knocked away by him.
Boom!
There was a dull sound of footsteps on the ground, and the next moment a strong wind whistled, and a flash of lightning came in the wind in an instant.
It was Wang Yu.
Jiang Shenyi frowned, facing Wang Yu, he seemed to have no advantage in close combat.
Pinch the formula and use the star repulsion again.
Feeling the irresistible force coming again, Wang Yu also pinched the formula at the same time.
The wind bridge and the thunder bridge in the body were activated at the same time.
The way of nature · the body of wind and thunder!
Taking a deep breath, a large amount of energy was taken into his mouth like mist.
The next moment.
Boom!
Wang Yu's eyes burst out with two blue-purple lightnings. From a distance, his pupils looked like two dazzling lightning beads!
The wild wind turned into an extremely solid air column, gushing around him, and his wild figure was like a god descending to the world!
The two true meanings protected him and he withstood this huge repulsive force, and he was not blown away like before.
The body of wind and thunder is an innate combat method in the way of nature.
The conditions for casting are quite harsh. Not only does the wind bridge and the thunder bridge need to be cultivated to the extreme, but also the two natural true meanings need to be perfectly integrated and released.
And a strong and indestructible physique is also needed to withstand the infusion of wind and thunder power.
It happened that Wang Yu met all the conditions, so this innate combat method was also one of his main training in the future.
Now it is the first time he has cast this combat method after learning it.
"Don't die!" Wang Yu said to Jiang Shenyi. This was what he was worried about!
Then, he slashed with a knife.
The huge thunder power merged into the sword energy, turning into a thunder chain hundreds of meters long, carrying the momentum of splitting the world and falling down.
Jiang Shenyi's face was a little moved, and he stepped back.
In the battle, he rarely avoided the sharp edge, but facing the violent Wang Yu, he did not dare to be careless.
Under the body of wind and thunder, Wang Yu only felt that his blood was boiling, and the strong fighting spirit hit his mind, bringing him excitement that he had not experienced in previous battles.
He had not experienced this kind of hearty feeling of releasing everything for a long time.
It must be said that Jiang Shenyi is a very high-quality whetstone.
This is the new definition Wang Yu gave him.
The hundreds of meters of sword energy and thunder chain swung wildly, and the destructive power caused was undoubtedly quite exaggerated.
Even the battle between Bai Hao and Gu Youying above was affected by him and slowed down a little.
"Uh, this..."
Bai Hao was speechless as he looked at Wang Yu in excitement.
He had never expected that Wang Yu's fighting power would be so strong after letting himself go.
Even Jiang Shenyi was suppressed for a while.
Innate fighting method: Wind Lock Ring!
Wang Yu stretched out his left hand, and several winds shot out, rolling up Jiang Shenyi who had a slight flaw, and bound him in place.
Then, the sword energy lightning chain spanned hundreds of meters and fell from high.
All this seemed slow, but in fact it only happened in a few seconds.
The speed of the two people's battle was too fast, resulting in many changes in a moment.
Jiang Shenyi put his hands together, and a black sword was summoned out of thin air by him, floating between his palms.
This sword is not made of material materials, but condensed into shape with special energy.
Under the sense of heaven and man, Wang Yu sensed an inexplicable threat from this sword.
Jiang Shenyi raised his sword and easily cut off the wind ring that bound him, regaining his freedom.
In the battle state, Wang Yu saw clearly that the moment the sword touched the wind ring, a large amount of wind energy on the wind ring was swallowed by the black sword.
The lightning chain of the sword energy he dropped also swallowed up the thunder energy when it touched the sword, and even the sword energy was swallowed by nearly half.
The energy was unbalanced, and the sword energy and lightning chain were broken.
"What kind of energy is this? It has such a devouring power."
Wang Yu suppressed the rising blood and regained his clarity of mind.
Ordinary fighting methods and swordsmanship would probably be devoured and weakened in front of this sword, and their power would be greatly reduced. In this way, they would not pose a threat to Jiang Shenyi.
"If the body refining method breaks through to the third level, it can be directly hammered and blasted by physical strength, but now..."
Wang Yu thought quickly in his mind, and the four bridges of earth, water, wind, and thunder in his body lit up and were activated at the same time.
The surrounding elemental energy resonated.
"The last knife!" Wang Yu made up his mind and integrated the four true meanings into the knife. Without any delay, he suddenly slashed out.
In an instant, the earth shook.
Raging waves, thunder, earth rumbling, wind whistling...
This knife is the ultimate output power that Wang Yu can burst out at the moment.
There was no superposition of tactics, because he had not yet mastered it...
It was just the purest power of the fusion of the four true meanings.
Facing this overwhelming torrent of energy, Jiang Shenyi clenched the black sword in his right hand.
Innate sword technique: star-destroying!
He slashed down with his sword, silently, and a piece of space in front of him solidified in vain.
Then it suddenly broke, and a black slender sword energy more than ten meters long took shape, and then passed through, causing repeated vibrations in the space.
It collided with Wang Yu's sword at one position.
Boom!
The energy was exploding, and the black sword energy was constantly devouring and wiping out the sword energy.
Until the sword energy completely wrapped it up and enveloped Jiang Shenyi.
Jiang Shenyi pursed his lips and quickly retreated.
The black sword energy disappeared, and Wang Yu's sword energy that fused the four elements of natural true meaning also calmed down after a minute of continuous rage.
Wang Yu was panting.
To be honest, he didn't really want to use the fusion of the four elements.
With his current cultivation level, it was a bit difficult to mobilize such a huge energy tide.
Especially when he exerted all his strength like this time, the consumption was too terrifying, almost draining him dry.
And although the destructive power was huge, it was a waste if he only used it to deal with one person.
Not to mention, Jiang Shenyi escaped unscathed. In this way, if the winner was really to be determined, he should actually be considered the loser.
After all, he consumed a lot of energy, and it was difficult to recover his mental power or innate energy in a short time.
With his combat power reduced sharply, he would probably have to run away if he continued to fight.
"I lost." Wang Yu thought so, and he accepted the defeat calmly.
He was not a person who could not afford to lose, and he was confident that if he was given more time to practice, he would be able to crush back in an invincible manner sooner or later.
After all, the time he had practiced now was still not long compared to others.
On the other side, Jiang Shenyi stood in the air, his expression was complicated and uncertain.
"I lost..."
In his opinion, Wang Yu did not retreat even a step in the last attack, while he was forced to retreat and escape.
If he stood still, he would be the only one seriously injured.
With his arrogance, he thought that he would be the loser in this duel.
It was strange that both of them felt that they had lost.
On the top, the Godly Witch looked at Wang Yu again and again with an expression of discovering a new world.
"I misjudged you, I really misjudged you."
The Godly Witch was amazed at Wang Yu's amazing performance. He was able to fight against an opponent of Jiang Shenyi's level with his cultivation in the middle stage of the Xiantian Realm, and he did not lose to the end.
This was enough to surprise the few celestial beings.
In the long years, they have seen so many young heroes and human pride.
But those as outstanding as Wang Yu are still rare.
"Congratulations, Master. I hope that such a talent will not be buried in the future." The Pope said to the old master with a smile.
"Haha." The old master stroked his beard with a smile.
Jiang Tianya, who was standing aside, was also looking at Wang Yu steadily at this time.
He knew Jiang Shenyi's strength better than anyone else, and therefore he could feel the huge potential hidden in Wang Yu.
"This is a seedling of a celestial being."
"Yes."
"Indeed."
...
In the black forest, many practitioners stopped and looked in the same direction.
"What's the sound?"
The huge noise caused by Wang Yu and Jiang Shenyi's last attack just now not only spread throughout the swamp, but also heard the noise in the black forest area farther away, and many practitioners were alarmed.
In the swamp area, many strange beasts were in turmoil.
However, this is the territory of the tree demon, and most of the strange beasts dare not approach rashly.
In the field, the four people have ceased fire and restrained each other.
Gu Youying blinked and stared at Wang Yu, as if he wanted to see through the details of this man who was initially very low-key.
"Junior brother, you didn't tell me that you have such strength..." Bai Hao said in a voice transmission.
The younger brother of the sect who he thought needed his care turned out to be an absolutely strong man whom he couldn't even see through.
"I remember saying that." Wang Yu spread his hands and silently recovered from the huge consumption of the previous battle.
Bai Hao vaguely remembered that Wang Yu did mention that he could fight against either Gu Youying or Jiang Shenyi.
But he didn't really believe it at the time...
Who would have thought that what Wang Yu said was true.
"Brother, if you still want to fight for the tree heart, I can hold one person for a while." Wang Yu suddenly said.
After having time to catch his breath, he weighed it and estimated that if he faced Jiang Shenyi again, he could still hold him for a while with the strength of his physical body.
This was also a return for Bai Hao's promised help, after all, his wood spirit was already in hand.
Just as Bai Hao was about to say something, the two halves of the tree monster's trunk suddenly shattered after being impacted by the previous battle between Wang Yu and Jiang Shenyi.
A dark green light ball emerged from it, about the size of a head, releasing some special energy from it, with faint ripples, silently spreading to the surroundings.
Wang Yu's face condensed, and the tree heart suddenly appeared.
Almost instantly, Gu Youying, Jiang Shenyi, and Bai Hao all rushed to the tree heart.
"Junior brother, you don't have to make a move again. It's okay if you can't get the tree heart." Bai Hao said in a voice transmission.
He was surrounded by three golden suns, and his fierce innate energy was very powerful when he exerted it, which was quite domineering.
In the fierce competition among the three people, Wang Yu had some difficulties even if he wanted to intervene.
The three people restrained each other. If he helped Bai Hao at this time, it might not be beneficial to Bai Hao.
Instead, it might push Gu Youying and Jiang Shenyi into the same camp.
And Bai Hao obviously realized this and did not let Wang Yu, who was over-consumed, make another move.
Soon, a faint light spread across the sky.
In the dim light, blue butterflies flew out of Gu Youying's body like phantoms.
Jiang Shenyi and Bai Hao left the range covered by the dim light.
Jiang Shenyi frowned slightly, while Bai Hao was as if he was facing a great enemy.
Until the dim light faded, those blue butterflies full of psychedelic colors disappeared, revealing the figure of Gu Youying, who was still holding the tree heart in her hand.
"The successor of the witch god, she is really worthy of her reputation." Bai Hao landed beside Wang Yu and sighed.
He had suffered a small loss just now and had to retreat.
Wang Yu nodded, and under the sense of heaven and man, the dim blue butterfly also made him feel a little threatened.
Although he had never faced Gu Youying head-on, it was probably that this woman was no less difficult than Jiang Shenyi.
