"I used to be extremely weak. Becoming as strong as Anonymous was my ultimate goal. Through blood, sweat, and tears, I became a Grandmaster. After that, I managed to pass the Cangming Grotto-Heaven's entrance exam to become one of their disciples! Finally, I'm here now, having broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm of both paths! I'm already stronger than you now! You're already an outdated old thing and should have been buried in history. I'm the new martial arts legend!" Lu Qianshang spoke slowly, and he became more and more confident. The fear and respect he had earlier gradually disappeared. "Today, I'm going to kill you! I'm going to use this as a learning experience to take me one step forward to becoming the greatest martial artist in this world!"
Jiang Ming looked at the person in front of him in surprise. Was he crazy?
His words made Jiang Ming cringe. Wasn't he embarrassed to make such a declaration?
"If you want to fight me, then go ahead. Don't be a coward!" He turned his wrist, and a long blade condensed by blood Qi swept out. He looked at Lu Qianshang calmly.
Although the other party's blood Qi was much stronger than his, Jiang Ming did not panic at all. Although his talent was average, the foundation he had built over the past two hundred years was extremely solid. Jiang Ming admitted that no one could ever be his match.
"Hmph! Today is the day you die!"
Lu Qianshang sneered and moved directly. He wielded his sword and slashed. Rays of blood Qi turned into blades and shot out at Jiang Ming.
"Your technique is really exquisite," Jiang Ming commented casually and waved his blade gently. Wisps of blood Qi rose like a breeze and brushed against every attack that was coming at him.
The attacks collided with each other and exploded.
"Little Lu, I'm very disappointed in you." Jiang Ming shook his head.
"You were just lucky. I'd like to see how many more of my moves you can block!" Lu Qianshang's eyes were cold. Without saying a word, he raised his sword and attacked Jiang Ming with all his might.
The two figures fought at a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye.
Jiang Ming laughed out loud as his blood Qi erupted and he slashed at Lu Qianshang.
It had been a while since he had fought someone this strong. Today was a good time to test the results of his cultivation.
The swords collided with each other, and each strike produced a fierce sound of metal clashing.
"How could his blood Qi be so condensed?"
Lu Qianshang's expression changed slightly. The more he fought, the more frightened he became. He could clearly feel the density of his opponent's blood Qi. He was only at the Foundation Establishment Realm. However, it was so condensed that even Lu Qianshang's heart palpitated. It was even purer and more condensed than his own blood Qi at the advanced level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
"My blood Qi is actually at a disadvantage."
Lu Qianshang looked at his sword. Every time it collided with Jiang Ming's blade, a wave of blood Qi would ripple and spread in the air. It looked majestic and imposing. However, in fact, it was because his blood Qi was not condensed enough.
"And his moves are also so vicious!"
Lu Qianshang felt more and more uncomfortable. He had seen many exquisite martial arts methods in the Cangming Grotto-Heaven. Every strike of Jiang Ming's seemed ordinary. However, it seemed to target Lu Qianshang's weak points without fail.
"Damn it." Lu Qianshang's face was unsightly. He knew that this was because his opponent's combat experience far exceeded his. However, he was reluctant to admit it.
The blade brushed past Lu Qianshang's shoulder and blood splattered everywhere. If he hadn't dodged quickly enough, the blade would have cut off one of his arms.
After hundreds of moves, Jiang Ming was unscathed, while Lu Qianshang was already covered in blood. Although his injuries were not fatal, if this continued, he would be defeated sooner or later.
"How could this be?"
Lu Qianshang was at a loss. He had been fighting all the way until now, and his cultivation had long surpassed that of a martial arts legend. Today had started out as a way for him to become even stronger.
