Chapter 393: Chapter 393: Injure the Enemy at the Cost of Greater Self-Harm

There were no surprises, as Roberts’s Wind and Fire Tornado was effortlessly sliced through by Liuli Hong’s long sword, like a head of cabbage.

Feeling the swiftly approaching tip of the sword, Roberts was so frightened that his heart almost leapt out of his chest.

His strongest move had been utterly incapable of even hindering Liuli Hong for a moment.

"If that’s all you’ve got, you’d be dead," Liuli Hong’s rather smug voice echoed.

Truth be told, he was somewhat disappointed in Roberts.

He had thought that Roberts might pose some threat to him, but it now seemed he had overestimated him.

Although the Dual Mutant Ability had endowed Roberts with a more formidable offensive power, it was exactly because he focused too much on offense that his defense was extremely poor.

Full of openings.

That so-called Wind and Fire Tornado, while indeed powerful, was quite crude.

It was basically just a combination of energies that were then unleashed.

There was absolutely no subtlety to it.

Not to mention a veteran of swordsmanship who had been immersed in the art for over a century like him, even some young swordsmen could easily spot Roberts’s flaws.

Of course, spotting the flaws was one thing, exploiting them to wound Roberts was another matter altogether.

After all, Roberts’s strength was considerable.

For those below Fourth Rank, even if they saw every one of Roberts’s weaknesses, it was of no use.

"Liuli Hong! Don’t look down on people," Roberts roared angrily.

I admit that you, Liuli Hong, are incredibly strong, but I, Roberts, am not some stray dog you can just kill at will.

I am a wielder of Dual Mutant Ability, an existence rarer even than those of Super-tier Mutant Ability.

"Tornado Explosion!"

The next second, Roberts detonated the raging Wind and Fire Tornado surrounding him.

The massive superpower instantly tore through the air, sending shockwaves pulsing wildly outward.

Bang!

Liuli Hong was horizontally blasted more than ten meters by the terrifying impact, only stopping when his long sword plunged into the ground.

At the same time, a trickle of fresh blood seeped from the corner of Liuli Hong’s mouth.

Roberts’s move had indeed caught him off guard.

It was totally a tactic that harmed the enemy significantly but oneself even more so.

You must understand, the explosion of a superpower is exceptionally dangerous, especially at close range.

The shockwaves generated by a superpower explosion do not differentiate between friend and foe.

"Pfft!" As expected, Roberts was already spitting blood at this point, looking much worse off than Liuli Hong.

"Interesting, then let’s go for the second sword," Liuli Hong wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his formerly dulled eyes now bursting with astonishing light.

It had been many years since he had encountered a worthy opponent.

He was very satisfied with Roberts’s strength.

After all, it’s only with an opponent that there can be progress.

Being continuously at the peak can lead to complacency, to becoming like a salted fish.

Back when he hadn’t yet reached Super-tier, he would breakthrough every so often, but since reaching Super-tier and finding no more worthy challengers, it had been many, many years without any significant progress.

For a cultivator who seeks constant improvement, this feeling was incredibly frustrating.

"Come on! See if I don’t blast you to death!" Roberts spat out a mouthful of bloody foam, his expression maniacal.

It’s just three swords, at most I’ll just explode my superpowers three times in a row.

So it’s a severe injury, what’s there to fear!

I’ll hurt you, Liuli Hong, as well.

"Light Beam!" Liuli Hong’s long sword quivered slightly as he uttered two words.

Zhong!

Suddenly, Liuli Hong charged towards Roberts like a cannonball.

In Roberts’s eyes, Liuli Hong had even become a phantom at this moment, especially Liuli Hong’s long sword, whose layers of overlapping shadows made it seem like countless swords were striking all at once.

No wonder this move is called Light Beam...

Very apt.

"Wind and Fire, Tornado!" Roberts used the same move again, more fiercely summoning the superpower around his body.

He had already prepared to explode his superpower three times in a row.

So, no matter what sword technique Liuli Hong used, as soon as Liuli Hong approached, he would just blow it up.

Under the superpower explosion, Liuli Hong would definitely be blasted away.

As long as he was blasted away, the move would be over.

As for the damage caused to himself by the superpower explosion, he could no longer care less about that; if he didn’t do this, he might well have his neck wiped by Liuli Hong instead.

Although everyone always said that Liuli Hong’s swordsmanship was terrifying, only when you truly face it do you realize that to call it terrifying is an understatement.

Liuli Hong’s swordsmanship isn’t something humans can withstand.

That sharpness, that extreme oppressive force, is simply despair-inducing.

Before the sword arrives, your heart, your momentum, your confidence are already shattered first.

"Hmph!" Seeing that Roberts was still using the same tactics, Liuli Hong felt somewhat displeased.

Can’t you come up with something fresh?

Can’t you learn from that kid Lu Xiao, who always manages to bring something new to the table every couple of days?
