High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late-Chapter 105 - 101: Silver Sword Shield, an Earth-Shattering Strike!
"It wasn’t aimed directly at me!"
It happened in a flash. By the time Su Mu reacted, it was already too late.
As Tantai Yan’s powerful spiritual force arrived, the scattered spiritual power within the Silver Sword solidified once again, enveloping Su Mu from all directions, forming a prison that trapped him inside.
"Huangfu Xue, did you teach her this move?" Shi Hao was quite surprised.
This move, the Multi-Layer Secret Prison, was Huangfu Xue’s signature secret technique. Its greatest feature was the ability of the secret prison to repair itself, meaning even if you broke through it, the prison could regenerate itself anew.
Unless your attack could reach several times the power needed to destroy the secret prison, you couldn’t prevent its repair. However, Tantai Yan’s spiritual purity was not low, making it unrealistic to achieve multiple times the power needed to destroy the prison.
Moreover, once this secret technique formed, it no longer had any connection with its caster, meaning even if the prison was broken, there would be no backlash.
This was the most troublesome aspect of this secret technique, and its value could rival that of a grandmaster-level spiritual secret technique!
The trapped individual must break the prison multiple times to regain mobility, but would Tantai Yan just stand by and leave Su Mu time to break free?
The answer was, of course, no.
So, in the moments after the secret technique formed, in the eyes of Shi Hao, Xu Zhi, and Huangfu Xue, Su Mu had already lost.
With the formation of the Multi-Layer Secret Prison, Tantai Yan felt at ease and exhaled lightly.
"A prison, huh?"
Su Mu swung the second saber strike without hesitation, his aura rising once again.
Surging Waves Saber Technique Second Form: Breaking Waves!
With one slash, the blade gleamed and the secret prison was breached, but Su Mu found that things were far from simple, as the prison returned as soon as he broke it.
In a moment of trance, Tantai Yan in Su Mu’s eyes overlapped with the purple phantom in his mind.
When everyone came back to their senses, they saw Su Mu in a dire situation, just as the Silver Sword shot toward him once more.
"Can someone tell me what happened, didn’t Su Mu just force back the Silver Sword?"
No one could answer, as everyone realized the situation had dramatically reversed, and Su Mu seemed trapped and near defeat.
"Alas, what a pity," Shi Hao couldn’t help but sigh.
Nearby, Huangfu Xue was highly focused, her eyes flashing with silver radiance, ready to step in to save Su Mu at any moment.
At this moment, Su Mu looked at Tantai Yan, their eyes meeting.
Su Mu understood Tantai Yan’s gaze, as if saying, in their agreed battle, Tantai Yan had won.
"Have you won?"
"No, I have one more strike, my strongest strike still hasn’t been unleashed!"
Madness filled Su Mu’s eyes, his whole body quivering slightly, not from fear, but from sheer excitement, so he raised his saber once more.
At this moment, his heart pounded like a war drum, and everyone could faintly hear the strong beats of his heart.
Hiss!
Without reservation, he ignited the Condensed Blood within his heart, then retracted the rampant sword momentum, caressing the blade as he gathered all the momentum back into the Red Sun Saber, infusing it completely!
The Red Sun Saber that nurtured the Nine Heavens Blade Qi displayed its most powerful form at that moment.
The half-meter blade radiance doubled instantly, forming a terrifying one-meter blade radiance, which expanded the secret prison confining Su Mu, buying him time.
In an instant, Su Mu fully activated the Secret of Power, delivering what would be the most powerful strike of his life.
Once the Secret of Power was activated.
Su Mu’s eyes were immediately bloodshot, as he felt like his entire body was being torn apart. His unrefined organs, flesh, and meridians in his body were on the brink of collapse.
But Su Mu did not stop. He suppressed the pain and resolutely unleashed this final strike.
Surging Waves Saber Technique Third Form: Overturning River!
As the saber came down, everyone present seemed to hear a surging wave roaring, as this strike would be the most breathtaking one most of them had ever seen.
For a moment, everyone held their breath, eyes wide open, intently watching the two people.
In that split second, the secret prison was utterly annihilated under this strike, unable to regenerate.
Then the Silver Sword rapidly approached.
A terrifying scene unfolded.
Hiss!
Without a jarring sound, the Silver Sword hurtling toward Su Mu was cleanly sliced in two by this strike, the cut smooth as a mirror!
Pft.
After the Silver Sword was severed, Tantai Yan’s delicate body trembled violently, her face turning ashen, and she spat out a mouthful of blood, splattering onto her white garment, blooming into blood flowers.
After unleashing this strike, Su Mu could no longer suppress the turbulent qi and blood within him, as his vision began to blur and his steps staggered, with the strong backlash from using the Secret of Power and Surging Waves Saber Technique sweeping through him.
It was as if a huge wave was about to swallow him, dragging him into a depthless sea.
Gah!
Su Mu spewed out a large mouthful of blood, looking even more miserable than Tantai Yan.
But he didn’t fall. Su Mu glanced at the unconscious Tantai Yan, gasping heavily as he gripped the Red Sun Saber, driving it into the ground, standing firm and proud.
On the field, Tantai Yan was unconscious.
Su Mu stood unyielding, the outcome decided.
