Chapter 144: Test Each Other, Water Dragon Roar! Shock the Heavens and Earth
The sky was filled with sword shadows, and even the wind had to give way to them. Even the void could not withstand such energy, and it was actually somewhat unstable.
Seeing this, Mei Qianmeng’s pupils constricted. 10,000 Swords Returning to Their Roots was indeed quite powerful. If she were to face it head-on, it was unknown who would come up on top.
Gu Xi drew out several streaks of Sword Qi and abruptly swept towards the wind.
The wind and the Sword Qi clashed, and the two masses of energy collided in midair. In an instant, a tremendous amount of energy burst forth, causing even Mei Qianmeng to retreat a few steps.
The whistling sound of the wind by her ears disappeared, and the world returned to clarity.
The wind stopped, and the sword retracted.
With just one move, the wind was actually completely dispersed by the Sword Qi, leaving only a small portion of it. If it was not for the surrounding void fragments, it was hard to imagine what had happened here.
Gu Xi held the Black Soul Sword as if he was one with the sword. Mei Qianmeng had seen many sword masters, but no one had ever been able to release such a powerful and shocking Sword Intent like Gu Xi.
She could see that Gu Xi had not used his full strength yet. He should still have some tricks up his sleeve. Her vigilance towards him had increased by another level.
Gu Xi said with a faint smile, “The Holy Maiden I know is not some weak woman who is fragile and needs to be carried.”
Being suddenly exposed by someone, Mei Qianmeng did not feel embarrassed. Instead, she smiled coquettishly, “It was just an accident. It was all thanks to Young Master Gu’s heroic rescue.”
The moment she finished speaking, the red gauze moved together, like a sky full of red clouds. It was as if Mei Qianmeng was a person full of unspeakable temptation. Even the originally messy environment became dreamy.
However–
With a slight movement of her delicate hands, the red gauze quickly wrapped around the wind. The gauze, which was supposed to be weak, became indestructible at this moment. In the blink of an eye, all the wind was swallowed up by the red gauze.
The red gauze moved people’s hearts. Mei Qianmeng’s expression was calm, and her beautiful eyes seemed to hide a hidden well. She looked particularly charming and dangerous.
Gu Xi was also shocked. Seeing that Mei Qianmeng had effortlessly destroyed these strong gales, it could be seen that her strength was also unfathomable.
Moreover, it was estimated that she was not even using 80% of her strength with that attack just now. Both sides had a good understanding of each other’s strength, so they were more cautious.
“The Holy Maiden is so powerful. Indeed, no one can compare with her once she makes her move.”
Facing Gu Xi’s praise, Mei Qianmeng covered her mouth and laughed. “How can I compare to Young Master? The one who is truly powerful should be Young Master Gu.”
Mei Qianmeng seemed to be implying something, but Gu Xi did not care. Both of them had their own thoughts, so they looked peaceful and docile. As for what their real thoughts were, only they knew.
“This is the Ten Thousand Dragons Formation. As the name suggests, it can’t really be that ten thousand dragons have appeared, right?”
If that was really the case, Gu Xi and Mei Qianmeng would have had a tough time. Unfortunately, what they were afraid of came true. As soon as they finished speaking, another dragon’s roar sounded out, and a sky-blue light enveloped the entire space.
Gu Xi and Mei Qianmeng were prepared. They saw a huge water dragon descend from the sky, followed closely by a monstrous flood that instantly submerged the entire space.
As far as the eye could see, there was a vast expanse of ocean. The dark-colored seawater was surging with undercurrents, and there were whirlpools of various sizes floating in the water. They could vaguely see a huge black shadow flashing under the seawater.
Mei Qianmeng frowned. “Maybe you’re right.”
The temperature suddenly became extremely low. Countless small water droplets floated on the ocean, forming sharp water ridges that stabbed toward Gu Xi and Mei Qianmeng.
The water ridges were densely packed, interweaving into a huge net that covered the sky and covered the earth. There was nowhere to run and hide. Mei Qianmeng waved her red gauze, wanting to wrap them up and destroy them again.
Unfortunately, she failed. The water ridges were as good as water, and everything could be fused together again. The water ridges suddenly disappeared and broke through her encirclement and condensed again.
The red gauze was covered with water stains, and then it spread continuously as if it was alive. In just a moment, a layer of blue ice crystals condensed on it.
Even if Mei Qianmeng wanted to recall the red gauze, it had already been solidified and turned into an ice sculpture. It could not be used again. She could only give up that part to avoid causing greater losses.
Her expression was a little ugly, but this time, it was not an act. This water dragon was obviously more difficult to deal with than the previous one. Gu Xi had also noticed this.
Even though the Black Soul Sword was too sharp and could not be blocked, so what if the water was chopped apart? In the blink of an eye, it could return to its original state.
The water dragon roared and suddenly flew out of the ocean. The huge waves pushed the two back dozens of meters, almost turning them into wet chickens.
The blue scales emitted a supreme divine light, and the dragon’s eyes stared at Mei Qianmeng and Gu Xi. Countless waves were stirred up in the ocean, and even the spiritual power in the space began to turn chaotic.
Gu Xi and Mei Qianmeng almost lost their balance and were on the verge of falling. If they fell into the ocean, as the home of the water dragon, the situation would be even more unfavorable for them.
Mei Qianmeng’s clothes were a little wet, which outlined her curvaceous figure. Her snow-white skin could be vaguely seen through the gauze, covering half of her face.
At this moment, she was like a mermaid walking out of the ocean. Even though she was in a sorry state, her beauty could not be concealed. However, Gu Xi was not in the mood to appreciate it.
“Our attacks have all failed.”
The water dragon was extremely cunning. Whenever Gu Xi and Mei Qianmeng attacked, it would hide in the sea. As a result, most of their attacks were devoured by the ocean.
On the other hand, the water dragon’s attacks were unstoppable. Water merged with everything. Even if it was destroyed, it would instantly recondense. It was impossible to defend against. Most importantly, it could not be destroyed, it would even imitate both of their moves.
