"It's too difficult, I can only last for three breaths.
"If the battle does not end within this period of time, and the spiritual energy is exhausted after three breaths of time, I will be at the mercy of others." Ling Yun smiled bitterly.
The sword technique he executed was called the 'Azure Lotus Sword Art', and it was a high grade Earth Realm martial skill. It could be used for attack, defense, and unparalleled strength.
Moreover, the sword technique's spiritual energy could be used by martial artists, and body cultivation could be used as well. Without the restriction of cultivation, it consumed the least amount of spiritual energy in an Earth Ranked Martial Technique.
That move was the simplest move of the Green Lotus Sword Spell. It was called the Green Lotus Awakening. It was a defensive move that was condensed from the spirit energy of the heaven and earth, and was intended to block the attack.
"How did you train?" Just as Ling Yun was deep in thought and was shaking his head, he heard a clear voice.
He raised his head slightly and looked at the shock in the young girl's eyes. With a slight curve of his lips, he said with a faint smile, "This is how you train!"
Ling'er's face darkened as she looked angrily at Ling Yun. Her beautiful eyes were staring at him, as if she wanted to devour him.
Lingyun let out a hollow laugh and quickly shifted his gaze. He could not afford to offend this girl.
Using the sword to prop himself up, his body swayed unsteadily. He felt weak, without any strength left in him. The spiritual energy in his meridians dried up, and his physical strength was depleted.
"You overestimate yourself!" Seeing his expression, Ling'er curled her lips, her eyes filled with schadenfreude.
Even a Martial King could only execute an Earth Rank martial skill around five times, and the spiritual energy in their body would be exhausted.
You are a Body Transformation cultivator, yet you haven't even broken through a single acupoint. Without a single strand of Supreme Qi, it would be good enough for you to barely be able to perform a elementary form.
If you can still be alive after using it, then others won't have to live anymore.
Lingyun gritted his teeth in anger. He used his power to support his body and slowly stood up, but his legs were still shaking.
"Looks like I'll have to start breaking through my acupoints." Lingyun thought to himself. He slowly clenched his fists and revealed an excited expression. After breaking through his acupoints, his strength should also increase dramatically.
The Heaven-Devouring Divine Light Sword was raised, slashing through the air slowly before transforming into a sword and thrusted out.
However, without the support of the spiritual Qi, his physical strength was gone as well, and his power was weaker than before. Even so, the sword remained steady and did not tremble.
Ling'er opened her mouth, but didn't say anything else. In her eyes, there was a trace of admiration.
She knew that with Ling Yun's current state, it would be extremely difficult for him to do such a thing.
Such a simple action was enough to show Lingyun's control over his strength, and how familiar his opponent was with the Breaking Sword Technique.
If it was anyone else, even if their body was filled with spiritual energy and their physical body didn't lose any strength, it would still be difficult for them to remain stable.
Although his speed was slow, Ling Yun still practiced tirelessly, relying entirely on his willpower.
He was sweating profusely until he lost consciousness. He could no longer hold on and was close to fainting.
Lingyun bit the tip of his tongue and a pain hit him. Maintaining the last sliver of consciousness, he sat down cross-legged and channeled the Grandmist Sovereign Technique to recover his condition.
Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth rushed into his body. It was like a raging river surging through his meridians. Finally, it poured into the Supreme Pagoda in his Qi Sea.
A thunderous sound came from within his body as his body trembled. The veins on his forehead throbbed as if he was enduring an indescribable pain.
His consciousness woke up.
