This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!-Chapter 350 - 76: Clouds Rise and Fall
Chapter 350 -76: Clouds Rise and Fall
“Jiang Jin—”
Atop Iron Blade Mountain, three hundred meters in the sky, the besieged “Sword King” Gu Xianfeng suddenly shouted loudly,
“Why?!”
Gu Xianfeng loudly questioned, wanting to know why.
Why did Bian Jingru choose to give up on him, a Martial Arts Master of crucial tactical significance?
“Sigh.”
At the foot of the mountain, Jiang Jin, who was remotely controlling a Flying Sword with closed eyes, sighed and did not answer Gu Xianfeng’s question.
In this world as tumultuous as tides, under the grand scheme, even a Martial Arts Master could only be drowned by the tidal waves!
“Gu Xianfeng, you dare to be distracted while fighting with me?”
At the summit, Xu Jing’s voice resonated.
As his words fell, Gu Xianfeng suddenly plummeted downwards!
He dropped for over a hundred meters before he regained control of his posture.
Taking advantage of his distraction, Xu Jing had used his Water Control Divine Power to manipulate the clouds around him and forcibly dragged him down a distance!
Now the two of them had entered a stalemate once again.
The last time they fought, Gu Xianfeng didn’t want to compete with Xu Jing in a battle of attrition, so he chose to land and fight Xu Jing on the ground.
This time, with Gu Xianfeng in the air and also being attacked by four Mages in the Possession Stage, positioned within a Big Array, his energy expenditure would only be greater.
If he continued to compete with Xu Jing, he would undoubtedly be the one to lose.
Gu Xianfeng, unwilling, glanced at the sky above and suddenly descended from the heavens, bringing with him a vast amount of bluish cloud vapor swiftly plunging towards Xu Jing.
“Good, no one interfere!”
Xu Jing laughed heartily and abruptly leapt into the air.
His feet were on the black tile roof of the Great Hall, the tiles cracking into tiny pieces, completely collapsing under his force!
Xu Jing turned into a dark blue meteor soaring into the sky, the air freezing wherever he passed, with countless frost particles dancing in the air.
Gu Xianfeng’s surrounding cloud vapor churned wildly, transforming into a wave of bluish surf, seemingly pulling down the sea of clouds from the heavens to the human world!
The two Martial Arts Masters collided in midair.
Boom—
Centered at their point of collision, a visible ‘mirror surface’ spread outwards, and the fierce wind blew the trees on the distant mountains rustling loudly!
The next second, Xu Jing fell from the sky, crashing into the Great Hall where Gu Xianfeng had been secluding himself.
Seeing this scene, the captured disciples of the Iron Blade Sect, who had ceased their resistance, all brightened up, showing hopeful expressions.
Boom boom boom—
The Great Hall where Xu Jing crashed thunderously collapsed, tiles, debris, and broken wood flew all around, and dust filled the sky.
“Hahahahaha—”
Xu Jing’s laughter echoed from the ruins.
The next second, a streak of sword light, carrying a sea of clouds, descended from the sky, crashing onto the ruins.
Boom!!!!
The earth shook.
The bluish cloud vapor enveloped the space of several hundred meters around, continuous thunderous sounds emanating from within it, the ground shaking repeatedly!
Two hundred soldiers of the Imperial Camp Army stood on the perimeter, their Military Formation pre-set, their powerful Military Evil ready but unreleased.
If they worked together to activate the Military Evil, it was potent enough to threaten a Martial Arts Master, so they were responsible for holding their positions in this battle.
If Xu Jing were to be defeated by Gu Xianfeng, or if Gu Xianfeng attempted to flee, they would strike.
At the foot of the mountain, Jiang Jin was sensing the situation of the two Martial Arts Masters’ combat through his Flying Sword.
In his perception, the summit of Iron Blade Mountain seemed to host two intense mini suns colliding again and again!
Martial Arts Masters, divinely proficient in Martial Arts, every move a perfect blend of “essence,” “Qi,” and “spirit,” are like a furnace to snow when facing Magic Artifacts that haven’t produced a True Spirit.
Thus, Jiang Jin could not “see” clearly the detailed exchange between Gu Xianfeng and Xu Jing.
This made him somewhat worried.
Defeating a Martial Arts Master and killing a Martial Arts Master were completely different difficulties, even if Xu Jing’s Divine Skills perfectly countered Gu Xianfeng’s, allowing him to defeat Gu Xianfeng, he might not necessarily manage to kill Gu Xianfeng.
Originally, when Bian Jingru sought help from Wuda, he hoped that Wuda would send two Martial Arts Masters to deal with Iron Blade Sect, but in the end, only Xu Jing arrived.
There was no helping it; Wuda’s status was simply too transcendent. Even Bian Jingru, the Garrison Commander, couldn’t forcefully order Wuda to do anything.
“Is this Xu Jing so sure of himself?”
Jiang Jin couldn’t afford to be careless, still maintaining the Four Symbols Star Constellation Sealing.
Should Gu Xianfeng escape today, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Atop Iron Blade Mountain, that large clump of cloud vapor began to move, any building enveloped by it turning into ruins once it moved away.
The cloud vapor, like a fearsome beast, crushed and devoured everything in its path.
Cloud Ascension Divine Power might seem to only carry people in flight, but in reality, the cloud vapor itself contained extremely powerful forces.
Gu Xianfeng, known as the “Sword King,” had already combined his Saber Technique with the Cloud Ascension Divine Power, able to turn the cloud vapor into a blade edge slashing at the enemy.
Thus, being inside the range covered by the cloud vapor was like being surrounded by countless blades that could strike at you anytime!
This was originally an extremely terrifying ability, but evidently, it was useless against Xu Jing.
The cloud vapor contained moisture, which Xu Jing could directly influence with his Water Control Divine Power, making him feel like he was in his own home field while inside the cloud vapor!
In the mist, Gu Xianfeng swung his saber towards Xu Jing, and the surrounding mist transformed into saber edges slashing at Xu Jing from all directions.
However, these originally sharp mists softened upon contact with Xu Jing’s body, losing all their strength.
Xu Jing dodged to the side, avoiding Gu Xianfeng’s chop, and pressed his palm against the other’s saber edge.
The next second, the layer of mist on Gu Xianfeng’s saber edge froze, and as Xu Jing’s palm vibrated, it shattered with a bang.
In their last encounter, Gu Xianfeng had intentionally held back, ultimately losing to Xu Jing.
This time, he held nothing back, fully releasing his power.
Yet, he despaired to discover that Xu Jing had also held back last time…
Gu Xianfeng had been famous for many years, becoming a Martial Arts Master over a dozen years ago, while Xu Jing likely had his breakthrough in the past year or two.
Normally speaking, Gu Xianfeng’s foundation and accumulation should have been much deeper than Xu Jing’s, but in this contest of Divine Skills, he couldn’t win against Xu Jing.
After over ten minutes of fighting, Gu Xianfeng was completely at a disadvantage!
“Since you call yourself ‘Sword King,’ I will kill you with a sword.”
Xu Jing suddenly said.
Then, he waved one hand, and a blue mist originally controlled by Gu Xianfeng suddenly freed itself, forming a saber blade in his hand.
At this moment, Gu Xianfeng’s black robe was completely shattered, and the protective clothing he wore underneath was also torn apart, his body bearing numerous wounds.
His gaze remained calm, not shaken by Xu Jing’s words.
Even in a disadvantaged position, he didn’t believe he had no chance of winning.
As long as he could defeat Xu Jing, he would have a chance to escape today.
The next second, the mist between Gu Xianfeng and Xu Jing shattered, and Xu Jing came at him with his saber!
The two transformed into two afterimages, fiercely dueling in the mist.
The glint of sabers constantly flashed, their unparalleled Sword Force completely churned the mist, leaving deep ravines on the ground!

Suddenly, a streak of saber light pierced through the mist, its strong Sword Force slicing through a corner of a Great Hall.
The next second, an entire wall and the roof above of that hall were sliced open, the cut surface smooth as a mirror.
In the mist, fresh blood constantly splashed from both Xu Jing and Gu Xianfeng.
Xu Jing chose a tactic of exchanging injury for injury, relying on their strong physiques and Life Force, which meant any injury was not fatal unless it was a shattered heart or a beheaded head.
However, after a brief exchange, Gu Xianfeng could hardly withstand it because each time a wound was inflicted, Xu Jing influenced the blood using Water Control Divine Power, even if it was only during the moment the saber passed by, causing Gu Xianfeng to lose more blood.
Martial Arts Masters are human too, and excessive blood loss could lead to death!
Purely in terms of Saber Technique, Xu Jing was actually inferior to Gu Xianfeng.
But with this method of exchanging injuries, Gu Xianfeng was at a great disadvantage.
Both possessed self-healing Extraordinary Abilities of Core Level; thus while fighting, their wounds also quickly healed.
However, due to Gu Xianfeng’s greater blood loss, his consumption was greater than Xu Jing’s.
After a while, Gu Xianfeng suddenly, recklessly swung his saber at Xu Jing’s head!
At this moment, Xu Jing also swung his saber at his head, and was quicker to act, so normally, Gu Xianfeng would die first.
But Xu Jing’s saber blade, formed from the mist, suddenly slowed just before touching Gu Xianfeng.
It turned out that during the earlier fight, Gu Xianfeng had incessantly been quietly leaving some mist on that blade, thereby exerting influence over the saber at a critical moment.
In high-level fights, victory is often by a hair’s breadth.
If Gu Xianfeng could make Xu Jing slow by 0.1 seconds, he could win.
“I won!”
Gu Xianfeng’s long saber successfully fell on Xu Jing’s head, and he was thrilled.
However, the next instant, he felt like his saber had struck into a bottomless swamp and did not manage to slice open Xu Jing’s head as hoped.
“You?!”
Gu Xianfeng’s eyes widened dramatically, disbelief written all over his face.
Xu Jing, with a somewhat crazed look, watched Gu Xianfeng, his mouth curving into a smirk.
The saber blade he held, formed from the mist, suddenly exploded, engulfing Gu Xianfeng in a massive burst of black fluid!
“How is this possible…”
The last words of Gu Xianfeng echoed through the mist.
Moments later, the blue mist gradually dispersed.
A kilometer away on the training grounds, hundreds of disciples from Iron Blade Sect, who had discarded their weapons, stared intently in this direction.
When they clearly saw the scene here, some suddenly fell to their knees, weeping loudly.
The ground was marked with crisscrossed ravines, surrounded by ruins.
On top of the ruins, Xu Jing held Gu Xianfeng’s severed head in one hand, the headless body lying at his feet!
Xu Jing lifted Gu Xianfeng’s head high, laughing loudly:
“Traitor Gu Xianfeng, has been slain by me—”
The Four Symbols Star Constellation Sealing above disbanded, the sky cleared up, and sunlight shone down.
The mundane world is like a tide, and people are like water; who will return from the World?
The blue clouds that had successfully soared to the peak of Datong Prefecture mountain some decades ago, fell today.
