Mo Chen waved his hand, casually pointing his wooden sword towards the ground, “Make your move.”
David took a deep breath, channeled his spiritual energy, and the Dragon Slayer Sword buzzed, its golden light radiating.
He knew this battle was inevitable, and he had no choice but to go all out.
With a swift movement, he unleashed his sword moves, sword light flowing like a gentle stream, bringing about endless attacks that swept towards Mo Chen.
Mo Chen’s eyes lit up slightly, and he praised, “Good.”
With a light and seemingly slow swing of the wooden sword in his hand, he always managed to parry the Dragon Slayer Sword at the last possible moment.
The clanging sounds continued, and although David’s sword movements were fast, he was unable to penetrate Mo Chen’s defense.
The ordinary wooden sword seemed to come alive in his hands, sometimes as strong as an old tree with its intertwined roots, and sometimes as fast as a snake emerging from its hole.
After dozens of moves, David was sweating profusely and was very shocked.
He could feel that Mo Chen had not used his full strength at all. Every parry was executed with perfect timing, neutralizing his attacks without injuring him in the slightest, as if Mo Chen was teaching him swordsmanship.
“Senior, if you don’t give it your all, I will admit defeat.”
David sheathed his sword and took a step back, speaking in a deep voice.
Mo Chen smiled and said, “Okay, then I will show you the true essence of the Sword Sect’s sword techniques.”
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure became blurry, and the wooden sword shot towards him with a powerful aura.
This sword attack seemed ordinary, but it gave David the feeling that he couldn’t dodge it and could only parry it with his sword.
“clang!”
With a loud bang, David felt a tremendous force, and the Dragon Slayer Sword almost flew out of his hand. He was shaken and forced to retreat, his blood boiling.
Just then, Mo Chen suddenly withdrew his left hand, holding only the sword with his right hand, and said calmly, “I will use one hand. Try again.”
A glimmer of stubbornness flashed in David’s eyes as he drew his sword and stepped forward once more.
He combined the “Flowing Cloud Sword Technique” with his own understanding of sword intent, making his sword moves even fiercer and dazzling with golden light.
However, even with just one hand, Mo Chen’s sword remained as impregnable as a fortress, unshakable by David’s attacks. In contrast, David repeatedly found himself in dangerous situations during Mo Chen’s seemingly relaxed counterattacks.
After several dozen more moves, Mo Chenmu swung his wooden sword, and it landed right on the Dragon Slayer Sword’s back.
David felt numbness in his wrist, and he could no longer hold the Dragon Slayer Sword. The sword slipped from his hand and fell with a thud in the vegetable garden not far away.
David stood there, stunned, staring at his empty hands, feeling a mixture of emotions.
He exerted all his strength, even burning some of his spiritual power, but he couldn’t even defeat his opponent with just one hand. Was this the strength of a top level sword cultivator?
