Chapter 27: Slaying the Enemy

  Cut off the opponent's sword, Mu Yuan didn't stay any longer, his hands naturally showed no mercy, having seen the scenes of bloodshed and carnage on the battlefield, Mu Yuan's current state of mind could be said to be a hundred times more ruthless, although he was still far from being iron-blooded and merciless, killing a few people was still a trivial matter.

  A burst of dragon soul energy exploded from the sword, and in an instant, the sword aura soared, thread by thread, faintly forming a boundary like a thousand arrows shooting out, with a momentum that could shatter bamboo, piercing through the cultivator who was still dazed, without even making a sound, he died cleanly!

  The newcomer's sword broke and he died, but it was only an instant of work. Mu Yuanqi's soldiers launched a surprise attack, and with their cultivation being higher than the opponent's to begin with, their swordsmanship was also extremely strong. The Dragon Soul Sword in his hand was even more sharp and abnormal, and one strike had an extraordinary effect.

  His left hand had long been gathering a vortex of energy, and the incoming sword light was cleanly deflected. The Cha family narrowly escaped death, but they didn't relax their guard. Cha Feng's black eyes, like polished obsidian, darted back and forth as he stared at Mu Yuan in a daze.

  Zhan Cha's eyes remained fixed, his hands grasping a few wasps as Mu Yuan said in a low voice, "Uncle Cha, it's me!"

  Mu Yuan's presence at this moment was imposing yet restrained, with an air of majesty that inspired awe. His body seemed to be surrounded by a faint aura of lightning, adding to his splendor. Cha Ying couldn't see his shadow, but as soon as he heard Mu Yuan's voice, the two of them had just parted ways not long ago, and immediately knew, yet still asked, "Are you, Brother Mu?"

  Muyuan chuckled and patted the head of Cha Feng, "I've temporarily left Yun'er in a safe place, don't worry about it. I'll go take care of these two people first!"

  After saying this, Muyuan has already risen into the air, with Longhun Sword still wrapped around his body. He flies by controlling the air, which is much more agile and swift than controlling the wind. In a battle, the advantage gained is not small. Think about it, controlling the wind is like standing there, only able to passively defend, while controlling the air can float up and down freely, fully exerting one's strength. The difference in quality is clear at a glance!

  Soaring into the air, Mu Yuan said another sentence, raised his hand and a dazzling lightning sword energy came crashing down, covering the sky and earth, emitting a massive sound like a tidal wave. The two cultivators were shocked and pale, operating their talismans, bursting out with dozens of sword lights, but the two men's sword techniques were not much different from the one Mu Yuan had just casually beheaded, how could they withstand Mu Yuan's Dragon Soul Sword Energy!

  With a few casual swings, they heard several cracking sounds. The talismans on the swords of the two men shattered one after another, and their swords also cracked open with several fissures. Alarmed, the two men struck out with several palm forces in succession, creating gusts of wind that blasted open a path through the swirling sword energy, and they fled without looking back!

  Mu Yuan let out a cold snort, and the Dragon Soul Sword emitted a loud thunderclap. Electric lights flashed wildly, and in an instant, dozens of sword energies shot out like a fierce dragon baring its teeth and claws, pouncing forward with extreme sharpness, producing a piercing tearing sound in mid-air that shook one's eardrums!

  With a few crisp sounds, the two fleeing men, one of whom was a monk in dark yellow robes, had his arm cut off by Mu Yuan's double swords. The other person was shocked and suddenly shattered the long sword in his hand, which had become ordinary iron, and threw it out with a scattered flower rain technique, throwing it at Mu Yuan, intending to block him for a moment and seek an opportunity to escape!

  Mu Yuan smiled calmly, the Dragon Soul Sword danced up and down, like a divine dragon soaring and diving, turning the iron pieces into powder. He slightly flicked his fingers, and more than ten streams of true energy shot out from between his fingers, shining brightly, like several fine streams flowing rapidly, but with extreme speed, colliding with the two people's bodies, directly piercing through them like sharp swords!

  Hiss, hiss! Several streams of blood gushed out from the wounds of the two men, and even if they flew faster, they couldn't catch up with the speed of the sword energy. Mu Yuan's true energy danced rapidly, his body technique extremely fast, as he held the Dragon Soul Sword in both hands, pouring his internal energy into it without cease. The Dragon Soul Sword instantly drew out a powerful sword aura over ten zhang long, surging and churning. With a loud roar from Mu Yuan, it was like a stream flowing upside down, chopping and hacking, sending the two men crashing to the ground, spewing fresh blood from their mouths, clearly on the verge of death!

  Zha Ying's family stared blankly at Mu Yuan, who was displaying his mighty power in mid-air, cutting down the three men one after another. They were all shocked and Zha Ying thought to himself, "It turns out that Brother Mu is so formidable, fortunately I didn't underestimate him, otherwise our village would have been finished!"

  Mu Yuan killed Leng Fenghai's arm assistant, floating in mid-air, looking at the light flashing in front of Yuan Longtai's house, hesitating in his heart, but not daring to go forward again to assist, fearing that both sides would attack again. After a fierce battle, he felt another wave of scorching pain on his back, knowing that he had used too much force and torn the wound open again. He quickly descended and greeted Cha Ying, searching for an intact house to repair his injuries with the Long Life Secret!

  Zha Ying saw the light fluctuating in the bandit chief's residence and was quite worried. He saw Mu Yuan meditating and cultivating his internal energy, and cautiously approached him to ask, "Brother Mu, since the strong enemy on the bandit chief's side has not retreated yet, why don't..."

  Mu Yuan smiled and said, "Never mind, your village chief is very capable and the villagers are already safe. Come forward to help, there's no need to worry!"

  Zha Ying heard Mu Yuan say so, it's not good to ask again, had to retreat and come out. Mu Yuan shook his head, he himself had lost out to Yuan Longtai, although it wasn't worth holding a grudge, but there was no need to go back and join the commotion again!

  The true energy of longevity surged and circulated within his body, the wound on his back healed once again. The wood element churned up a tide of vitality in his meridians, forming tiny whirlpools that countered the sword energy's violent assault. The sword energy, imbued with intense yin cold properties, had originally rampaged through Mu Yuan's meridians, but was now bound by countless emerald green light beams, unable to harm his meridians. Moreover, it couldn't withstand the might of the Dragon King's power, stirred up by the Longwang sword. Gradually, all the energy was absorbed and dissolved by the whirlpools, dispersing into the most fundamental source of energy, which was then absorbed by Mu Yuan!

  "This cyclone-like energy, although a simple divine ability in the tide-like flow, is actually the ultimate simplicity of the Great Way, with infinite wonderful uses. If it were ordinary, one could only force these different sword energies out of the body, but now they can be dissipated and absorbed, and even understand some of the subtleties of swordsmanship - truly excellent!"

  Mokoto's mind was immersed in the sword energy that was being dissolved by himself, a cold and eerie feeling suddenly rose to his heart, and these sword energies that were rampaging through his meridians formed an array of attacking techniques, one after another, which complemented the lack of sinister energy in Qingmu Shenmang and Canglang Shuijian, and he felt that he had gained a lot!

  When Mu Yuan woke up from his meditation, he suddenly remembered that he had left Cha Yun'er outside and more importantly, he had used the tide to seal her breath. Others might not have noticed, but he scolded himself for being muddled. He quickly stood up and walked out in big strides. When he looked up, the fight in the distance had already ended. The various families were busy repairing their damaged houses. It seemed that Yuan Longtai had won, or perhaps it was just Cold Wind Sea and the other two who had failed to steal the chicken and instead lost three people. Seeing that things couldn't be helped, they retreated on their own. But Mu Yuan no longer cared about these things. In the darkness of night, he rushed to where Cha Yun'er was and saw that she was still safe and sound. Only then did he calm down and casually undo the spell. However, he found that Cha Yun'er's eyes were shining brightly, like ripples on water, with a kind of spiritual gaze that people from the mountainous regions often had, staring at him. He was momentarily stunned!
