Novel Full Chapter 452
Chapter 452: Chapter 85 Your senior brother is still your senior brother Chapter 452: Chapter 85 Your senior brother is still your senior brother Guan Zhan swung his attack and missed, a shock going through his heart.
How could Luo Yan let this opportunity slip by?
He immediately controlled the Huangting Kunwu Sword to thrust forward, forcing the Purple Azure Twin Swords apart, and his right hand quickly reached into the Heavenly Craft Treasure Bag.
“Give me something to deal with Flying Swords and Sword Qi!” he commanded with his Divine Sense.
The Heavenly Craft Treasure Bag immediately spat out two items.
Luo Yan quickly caught them with both hands, glanced at them, and promptly threw away the gold wound medicine elixir bottle in his left hand, while tossing up the red palace smoke Luo in his right, quickly protecting his surroundings.
Even though he had been unknown before, now that he had made it into the top twelve of White Jade Capital, people from Kunlun naturally gathered information on Luo Yan based on his previous battles.
The red palace smoke Luo was a smoke-like defensive Magical Treasure that, once unfurled, stretched three to four zhang wide.
It seemed formless and incorporeal, but in reality, it had an extremely strong defensive effect against physical attacks.
Ordinary Flying Swords that shot into the red palace smoke Luo would face resistance that doubled for every few inches they penetrated, like a tiger that falls into a swamp or birds and insects trapped in a spider web, quickly becoming unable to move.
Since Guan Zhan had access to this intelligence, he naturally wouldn’t continue to recklessly attack.
Instead, he quickly manipulated his Daoist Formula, activating Sword Dao Techniques of the Green Sword.
Suddenly, a stream of azure like lightning fiercely surged, heading straight toward Luo Yan amidst the clouds and mist.
“Be careful!” the Kunlun Mirror couldn’t help but exclaim a warning.

Luo Yan saw it clearly; that azure stream was neither Sword Light nor Sword Qi, but seemingly the form of some Daoist magic.
He didn’t dare stay put and hastily retreated using Sword Control.
However, the speed of that azure stream was even slightly faster than that of the Huangting Kunwu Sword (or perhaps because the Huangting Kunwu Sword was unwilling to fully acknowledge its master, it couldn’t exhibit its full-speed form).
In an instant, it rushed into the red palace smoke Luo, its speed slightly hindered but not rapidly reduced.
Half-real, half-illusory!
Luo Yan immediately realized in his heart.
The red palace smoke Luo was most powerful at slowing down solid objects, progressing inch by inch.
It had no slowing effect on intangibles like flames or lightning; it could only weaken their power.
This slight hesitation in the azure stream, yet not slowing down layer by layer, indicated it was in a state between reality and illusion!
With that in mind, he reached into the Heavenly Craft Treasure Bag again and quickly issued a command:
“Give me something to counter half-real, half-illusory things, no elixirs!”
The Heavenly Craft Treasure Bag quickly spat out an item, which was a small mirror the size of a palm.
“Kunlun Mirror?” Luo Yan was shocked.
“How could it be me!” the Kunlun Mirror immediately cursed, “That’s the Monitoring Heaven Mirror!”
“How do I use it?” Luo Yan hastily asked.
“Shine it!”
Luo Yan immediately felt like an idiot, quickly activated the Monitoring Heaven Mirror with True Essence Mana, and shone it on the relentlessly pursuing azure stream.
With just one shine, the stream solidified and was fixed in place.
Upon closer inspection, Luo Yan realized it was a small snake formed from the Wood System True Essence, with a triangular head and teeth sharp like knives, looking extremely fierce.
Guan Zhan was also taken by surprise and quickly activated the Sword Dao Techniques again, conjuring seven or eight azure small snakes, hissing as they shot toward Luo Yan.
Luo Yan remained calm and continued to operate the Monitoring Heaven Mirror, capturing all the snakes, and then effortlessly slaughtered them with the Huangting Kunwu Sword.
Just as he had finished off the last snake, a sudden burst of light appeared ahead, as Guan Zhan directly unleashed a full-power Man-Sword Unity attack, attempting to kill him on the spot.
The Man-Sword Unity was extremely fast, too late to reach for another Magical Treasure from the Heavenly Craft Treasure Bag, Luo Yan could only shine the Monitoring Heaven Mirror forwards.
Guan Zhan reacted swiftly as well, pulling the Sword Light to the side to dodge the mirror’s light, maintaining his speed and rapidly closing in to within several zhang!
“Junior Brother!” Shi Liuli exclaimed from the sidelines.
The disciples of Shushan had complex expressions on their faces because Guan Zhan’s Man-Sword Unity and the power of his Sword Light were even more outstanding than many among them.
If this person were in Shushan, he would certainly rank in the top ten of the Immortal Sword Ranking.
How could he have ended up in Kunlun instead!
At a distance, Lin Duanshan showed slight surprise, Duan Fenhai clicked his tongue in wonder, while only Guan Shanyue’s eyebrows were slightly frowned.
In a farther place, Linghu Chu looked anxious, but Elder Shi Ding remained calm and collected, as if convinced that Luo Yan couldn’t possibly lose.
Luo Yan was retreating at full speed with Sword Control, but how could his speed compare to the great move of Man-Sword Unity?
???G?.?0
The distance between the two was rapidly closing, but thankfully the opponent’s evasion of the mirror light had after all bought Luo Yan a moment’s respite.
He reached into the Heavenly Palace Treasure Bag like lightning with his right hand, attempting to retrieve a Magical Treasure, but little did he know that Guan Zhan was precisely waiting for this moment, and the speed of the Sword Light instantaneously surged by another threefold!
From the start of activating Man-Sword Unity, Guan Zhan had been deliberately suppressing his speed, all to mislead Luo Yan’s judgment and make him think he had the chance to retrieve a Magical Treasure.
Even the previous evasion of the Kunlun Mirror’s light was within Guan Zhan’s calculations!
The Sword Light suddenly closed in on Luo Yan’s chest, and Guan Zhan could already see the expressions of confusion, shock, fear, and unwillingness on Luo Yan’s face.
In that instant, myriad thoughts flashed through Guan Zhan’s mind.
Countless days and nights of painstaking swordsmanship practice, countless desperate fights to the death had given him his current strength and realm.
Defeating Luo Yan was only his first step.
Next, he had to defeat Elder Sister Xu, his older female cousin, as well as Chief Disciple Qiu, to eventually take the top rank in White Jade Capital’s competition and the position of Chief Disciple in the Foundation Establishment Realm.
For revenge, he needed to seize even more power!
Myriads of thoughts converged into pure killing intent.
Guan Zhan had already urged all his True Yuan, the Sword Light shining as bright as the blazing sun, piercing through Luo Yan’s chest!
Victory!
Shi Liuli outside the arena had already closed her eyes in fright, unable to watch any longer.
Elder Shi Ding still had a calm expression, but the sleeves of his clasped hands were slightly wrinkled, the fingers inside involuntarily clenching tight.
The next second, the Sword Light that had passed through Luo Yan’s body suddenly exploded into a kaleidoscope of red, green, yellow, white, and black lights!
To be precise, it was Luo Yan who had used some sort of Daoist Magic, releasing that dazzlingly brilliant five-colored light which instantly extinguished Guan Zhan’s Sword Light.
In the blink of an eye, Guan Zhan was reborn in his original place, his expression somewhat dazed.
“Shushan, Luo Yan, wins.”
Hearing the mechanical voice, Luo Yan relaxed in his heart and smiled secretly.
Sorry, Junior Brother Guan, your big brother is still your big brother after all.
Upon seeing this, Guan Zhan suddenly came back to his senses, pointing at him and exclaiming:
“You, you used…
the Postnatal Five Elements Great Extermination Divine Light!”
There was silence for a moment across the arena, and then it suddenly erupted into a thunderous roar of noise!
“Postnatal Five Elements Great Extermination Divine Light?” Guan Shanyue said in astonishment.
She had guessed that Luo Yan had a trump card, but she did not realize it was such a big one, making Guan Zhan completely unable to fight back.
“That Five Elements Divine Light, hasn’t it been lost already because it was too difficult to refine?” Duan Fenhai also looked astonished.
“Where did Luo Yan get the Postnatal Five Elements True Veins from?”
“If it truly is the Five Elements Divine Light, then this Penglai Jade Pure…” Lin Duanshan said slowly.
Although he did not finish his sentence, the people of Shushan all understood his meaning.
Given time, Luo Yan might well become another Qiu Changtian or An Zhisu, another super-powerful figure!
