Guarding the border: I am sanctified in the flesh

Chapter 182 A strong swordsman, the highest state of swordsmanship
Two days later, in the morning.

Lu Fan stood on the competition stage again and faced the next round of opponents.

Wei Cheng, a strong person in the early stage of integration.

This battle attracted countless people to watch.

Many monks who advanced to the next round also mingled with the crowd and secretly observed Lu Fan.

They have regarded Lu Fan as a potential opponent.

Wei He also stood high in the sky, silently paying attention to Lu Fan.

"The battle begins."

Before he finished speaking, Wei Cheng took the lead.

A rope flew towards Lu Fan, about to tie him up.

Is this a fairy binding rope?
Lu Fan was a little surprised, but after thinking about it for a moment, he understood that it was just a fake.

The power is far inferior to the real Immortal Binding Rope.

"Shh!"

The black sword light flashed past, and the rope was cut into several pieces and scattered downwards.

The sword did not stop and continued to move forward.

A giant bell appeared out of thin air and stood in front of Wei Cheng.

However, Kunwu's sword easily passed through the giant bell and continued to slash forward.

As if it doesn't exist at all.

A thick ice shield suddenly appeared, like a mountain, blocking Wei Cheng.

"Oh!"

The ice shield was instantly shattered and turned into ice shards all over the sky, falling with the wind.

Kunwu's sword continued to slash forward.

"Crack!"

Countless lightnings gathered together to form a black lightning, which struck the Kunwu sword with great power.

But it only made Kunwu Dao pause for a moment.

In the astonished eyes of everyone, the Kunwu sword fell gently.

"Oh!"

Wei Chengfei flew out.

Lu Fan still only used one knife.

"it is good!"

Cheers all over the place.

Everyone looked at Lu Fan with a little more awe.

Impressed!

Even the strong men in the early stage of the alliance could not stop Lu Fan's sword. One can imagine Lu Fan's strength.

At least it is in the late integration stage, or even higher.

too strong!
It turns out that Lu Fan's strength is so terrifying.

Not even weaker than Song Yanqiu and others.

But his age is much younger.

He is indeed the most outstanding genius in the world of immortality!
The speed of entry is astonishing.

"Good boy!"

Wei He also secretly praised in his heart.

Lu Fan's strength turned out to be stronger than he imagined.

Moreover, the realm of using the sword has far exceeded his understanding of the sword technique.

As far as the sword strike just now was concerned, one could even get a glimpse of the highest realm of swordsmanship.

Way of the knife!
Although it is far from reaching it, at least a door has been opened and the scenery inside can be seen.

His talent is truly incredible.

Especially his understanding is top-notch!

Today, Wei He also admires Lu Fan a little more.

At this time, the sky was above the competition stage.

Shang Xingtian and others were hiding in the dark, observing Lu Fan.

"Ugh!"

Zhao Muyang suddenly sighed, "Unexpectedly, I also misjudged him sometimes, and even I couldn't understand Lu Fan's strength."

"Yes."

Meng Yunchang answered: "He must have some secret method to hide his strength, which is why all of us underestimated him."

"This little guy!"

Shang Xingtian looked pleased, "It's unexpected every time."

"Actually, he may not be hiding his strength."

Qiu Cheng sighed: "It's that he keeps breaking through himself, so that we make wrong judgments every time."

"But he entered the country too quickly."

Liu Mantang was very puzzled, "Is there really such a talented person in this world?"

"Of course there is, it's just that we haven't seen it before."

Qiu Chengxin shook his head gently, "Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I may find it difficult to accept it, or even believe it."

"But it is true."

"You may not know that Lu Fan only started practicing martial arts when he was 16 years old."

"By the age of 19, you will have reached the golden elixir stage."

“It took more than two years to grow to where it is today.”

"That is to say, it has been less than six years since he started practicing martial arts."

"Our strength is almost catching up with ours."

Speaking of this, Qiu Chengxin glanced at everyone, "And those of us who are the strongest in the world of cultivating immortals have been cultivating for at least 150 years. The difference can be imagined."

Everyone was silent, even a little ashamed.

Compared with Lu Fan, even they were far inferior.

Not to mention others.

"It's a good thing!"

Zhao Muyang was the first to react and said with a smile: "What we were most worried about before was that Lu Fan did not have enough time to grow up. Now that he is about to grow up, what are we afraid of?"

"Correct."

"Yes."

"well said!"

The crowd joined in.

"I just hope that Lu Fan can stay in the human world for a few more years, so that he can lead others to grow up better."

Qiu Chengxin said: "It doesn't take long, just 100 years is enough."

"hope so."

"I hope he won't be in a hurry to overcome the disaster."

"Don't rush to ascend."

In everyone's eyes, it was a certainty that Lu Fan would be promoted to the Tribulation Stage.

And, that day won’t be long.

……

……

Two days passed quickly.

In the afternoon, the battle continued.

Compared to two days ago, more people came to watch the game today.

The sky and the earth are densely packed with people.

Song Yanqiu, Su Xiaomo, Ye Wentian, and Cheng Ying had never watched a game before.

It even came today.

They all had a new understanding of Lu Fan's strength and regarded Lu Fan as a potential opponent.

Today I took the opportunity to find out the reality.

After all, they had only heard about it before, but had never seen Lu Fan take action.

"Next, the ones who will be fighting are Lu Fan and Lin Mubai."

"I would like to invite two fellow Taoists to come on stage."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Fan and Lin Mubai flew onto the competition stage and stood face to face.

Both of them were looking at each other.

Lin Mubai looked to be in his 20s, with an extremely delicate face and a bit of indifference.

A strong person in the middle stage of integration.

Lu Fan could easily see through the opponent's strength.

He could also tell the other person's age, he should be in his 40s.

It can be regarded as an extremely rare talent.

Today is sixteen to eight, which is a crucial battle.

The winner will directly advance to the top eight and get a place to enter the ancient battlefield.

Of course, the loser also has the opportunity to continue competing for the only two places.

The difficulty is much greater.

Neither Lu Fan nor Lin Mubai spoke, but their faces showed strong confidence.

This battle must be won!

The top ten spots must be won.

"Battle begins!"

With an announcement, Lin Mubai already held the sword in his hand.

Without seeing any movement from him, sword light suddenly appeared in the sky, slashing at Lu Fan from all directions.

Sword repair?

Lu Fan instantly understood the other party's training method.

Different from martial arts, sword cultivation is a common method of cultivating immortals in the world of immortality.

Others include law cultivation, alchemy cultivation, talisman cultivation, weapon cultivation, witch cultivation, demon cultivation, and even body cultivation, etc.

The most common one is Dharma cultivation, followed by sword cultivation.

This has to do with personal talent.

Especially it has a great relationship with everyone’s spiritual roots.

But martial arts cultivation is different.

Martial arts cultivators are mortals without spiritual roots, a path they only take as a last resort.

The difficulty of cultivation is undoubtedly much greater.

But if you truly cultivate to the extreme, you will be no worse than any immortal cultivator.Especially people like Lu Fan, who not only cultivates martial arts, but also cultivates his body.

He even practices swordsmanship.

Although the methods of cultivation are different, they achieve the same goal through different paths.

Because the final avenue is the same.

"Shh!"

The black sword light flashed past, and the sword light in the sky disappeared instantly.

However, the sword power did not stop and continued to slash at Lin Mubai.

Lin Mubai did not panic and slashed continuously with the sword in his hand.

A huge sword suddenly appeared out of thin air, facing the Kunwu sword, and slashed it down hard.

"boom!"

A loud bang.

The giant sword disappeared instantly.

Kunwu Dao continued to move forward.

Lin Mubai finally had a hint of panic in his eyes, and he slashed out with the long sword in his hand.

"boom!"

Countless sword energy surged out, merged into thousands of sword intentions, and turned into violent sword movements.

Finally, it transformed into a powerful sword domain, like a vast sea of ​​swords, sweeping towards Lu Fan with endless momentum.

The Kunwu knife still fell gently and silently.

In front of the powerful sword domain, it seems so small and powerless.

It was as if a drop of black water was thrown into the vast sea of ​​swords.

It only caused a slight ripple.

However, the vast sea of ​​swords instantly turned into nothingness, as if it had never appeared before.

The next moment, the Kunwu sword appeared in front of Lin Mubai, and in his horrified eyes, he chopped it down gently.

"Oh!"

Lin Mubai flew out.

Momentary silence.

Everyone watching the battle looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief.

Lin Mubai, who was as strong as the middle stage of the integration, still couldn't stop Lu Fan's sword?

What kind of knife technique is this?
As if he could ignore everything.

Could it be that Lu Fan has understood the highest realm of swordsmanship, the Dao of the sword?
How can it be?

"Lu Fansheng!"

An announcement interrupted everyone's thoughts.

"it is good!"

The entire trial ground erupted in the warmest cheers.

Song Yanqiu and others looked at Lu Fan with a bit more dignity.

Only by seeing it with their own eyes can they feel how powerful Lu Fan is.

At least it’s the Dzogchen of the integration period!
Even higher.

Even they weren't sure they could take the blow just now.

What a formidable opponent!

Once a martial artist breaks through the shackles, he can become so powerful.

Even they will feel great pressure.

Wei He was like this, and so was Lu Fan.

"it is good!"

Shang Xingtian, who was high up in the sky, also let out a sigh of admiration, "This kid Lu Fan is no longer weaker than me."

"Maybe this is not Lu Fan's strongest sword."

Zhao Muyang answered: "In my opinion, the number one winner in this competition is none other than Lu Fan."

"He's the best."

Meng Yunchang nodded, "With Lu Fan's talent, giving him another god-level skill will further enhance his strength."

"Yes."

Shang Xingtian agreed: "When we enter the ancient battlefield, maybe Lu Fan will bring us additional surprises."

"exactly."

Qiu Chengxin smiled and said: "When we entered the ancient battlefield, we only stayed there for less than a month. We explored a small part of the area, but we had to come out early because of those powerful spirits."

"But even then, we gained a lot."

"It's hard to imagine what you would gain if you could stay for three months."

Speaking of this, Qiu Chengxin looked at everyone, "I'm looking forward to Lu Fan's performance at that time."

"Me too."

"Hopefully he can do the things we want to do but can't."

"He will."

……

……

That night.

Lu Fan, Wei He, and Liu Mei were sitting at the dinner table, drinking wine and eating meat as usual.

The opponents for the next round have already come out.

Wei He will fight against Cheng Ying, and Lu Fan will fight against Ye Wentian.

"Come on, I respect you."

Liu Mei was the first to hold up the wine glass, "Congratulations on your successful promotion and the qualification to enter the ancient battlefield."

"it is good."

"cheers."

After the three clinked glasses, they drank the wine in one gulp.

"It's a good thing you two are not in the same group."

Putting down the wine glass, Liu Mei smiled and said, "Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to compete in the finals."

"Yes."

Wei He nodded, "But I'm quite looking forward to fighting Lu Fan."

"Me too."

Lu Fan spoke and looked at Wei He.

Wei He happened to be looking at him too.

The two smiled at each other and said nothing.

In fact, they both know that only the other person is their most rare opponent.

Because both of them are martial arts cultivators, and also physical cultivators, their strength is almost the same.

Being in the public eye can stimulate the potential of the two of them.

It would be of great benefit to both sides if they could fight with real swords and guns on the martial arts stage.

Maybe you can take the opportunity to break through and take your strength even further.

"Although we are brothers, I won't let you go when it comes to the competition stage."

Wei He smiled and said, "You have to be mentally prepared."

"I think so too."

Lu Fan also laughed, "When the time comes, brother must not hold back."

"Good boy!"

Wei He praised, picked up the wine glass, "Come on, let's have a drink."

"I respect you, big brother."

Lu Fan also raised his glass, "Cheers!"

"cheers!"

The two put down their wine glasses and took a few bites of the food.

Liu Mei was a little curious and asked: "Senior, who is stronger, Cheng Ying or Ye Wentian?"

"Based on my observation, Ye Wentian is still stronger."

Wei He glanced at Lu Fan and told him, "Brother, you have to be more careful. Ye Wentian is likely to have the same strength as you in the Great Perfection of the Fusion Stage. I'm afraid he won't be that easy to deal with."

"Ok, I know."

Lu Fan nodded. Since Ye Wentian came last time, he had gone to observe Ye Wentian.

He knew that the opponent was very strong and a sword cultivator.

"Actually, our most powerful opponent should be Song Yanqiu."

Wei He said: "His strength is unfathomable, and even I am not sure I can beat him."

"It's really strong."

Lu Fan also had to admit that this opponent was powerful.

He is indeed the most outstanding genius in the world of immortality.

Of course, with his current strength, there is nothing to worry about.

Not to mention that Song Yanqiu was only in the Dzogchen stage of integration, even if he was a strong man in the Mahayana stage, he was confident that he could defeat the opponent.

He took the time to watch Song Yanqiu's actions and knew that the other party was a Dharma cultivator who only possessed one attribute, but could cultivate this attribute to the extreme.

"There is also Su Xiaomo, who should not be underestimated either."

Wei He continued: "In terms of cultivation talent, she is actually not weaker than Song Yanqiu, but she is younger and a little less powerful."

"really."

Lu Fan nodded in agreement.

He also knew about Su Xiaomo.

Different from law cultivators and sword cultivators, Su Xiaomo is a talisman cultivator.

It is said that she is extremely talented in drawing talismans and can draw various long-lost talismans.

Moreover, she is also a body practitioner.

Like Lu Fan, he has a powerful body.

She possesses the strengths of both factions and can both attack and defend.

There are also countless spiritual talismans as assistance, making it an extremely difficult opponent.

"No matter how strong others are, they can't be stronger than you."

Liu Mei picked up the wine glass again and said with a smile: "Come on, I'll toast you with another drink. I wish you all the way to the finals."

"it is good."

"cheers!"
