Watch out! Something's wrong with this guard.

Chapter 165 Pre-Battle Preparations! The Decline is Fully Exposed!

"Um, wait a minute, don't rush. I know you're very capable, so let me prepare first."

Lu Yunshi raised his hand, signaling the other party not to move. Tianyi didn't say anything, but simply lowered his hand, letting Lu Yunshi do as he pleased. Perhaps to him, it was just a waste of some meaningless time.

it's the same.

Seeing that the other party was not going to say a word, Lu Yunshi couldn't help but laugh. He then took out a jade bottle and poured the pills inside without saying a word.

Instantly, Lu Yunshi's aura surged wildly, almost unable to suppress the sudden appearance of spiritual energy. In terms of sheer strength, Lu Yunshi was probably already at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

"Hiss! Can we handle taking so many pills?"

"Yes, they all look like pills that increase spiritual energy. Taking too many of them might damage your foundation."

Lu Yunshi was certainly aware of the possibility of damaging one's very foundation, but don't forget, he is now also an alchemist.

He is very good at using drugs rationally, and now he is taking drugs at the limit of his body's capacity.

Of course, that alone is not enough.

Without any hesitation, Lu Yunshi digested the effects of the medicine in his stomach and then affixed the talismans to his body one by one. In just a few seconds, five Iron Body Talismans, three Extreme Travel Talismans, and four Shadow Concealment Talismans began to take effect.

This move might seem absurd to others, but before a major battle, it's common sense to maximize all beneficial buffs.

Finally, Lu Yunshi took a deep breath, gripped his longsword, and his gaze suddenly sharpened.

"bring it on!"

Before the words had even finished, a blur appeared before Lu Yunshi's eyes. A fierce gust of wind howled in, and a hand was already on Lu Yunshi's body.

Boom!

The sound of shattering rang out, but it wasn't Lu Yunshi's physical body; it was merely a puppet. Tianyi's speed was extremely fast, so fast that even a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator could hardly react. However, Lu Yunshi was not slow either, and unexpectedly, he replaced himself with a puppet.

call out!call out!call out!

More than a dozen iron arrows shot out simultaneously, streaking like meteors. Tianyi turned around upon hearing the sound, flicked his long sleeves, and the arrows fell to the ground with a thud.

At this moment, Lu Yunshi wielded his sword and pierced through the air, his figure flashing as he took tiger-like strides, like a dragon soaring, and struck Tianyi with a heavy blow.

Tianyi glanced over indifferently, and a golden aura rose up, emitting a muffled boom. He raised his left arm, and golden light condensed to block the sword. The violent vibration caused the surroundings to tremble, tearing the table surface apart like autumn leaves falling in the wind.

Lu Yunshi stopped in front of Tianyi, his expression equally indifferent. He met Tianyi's gaze for a moment, then his eyes turned cold, revealing a sharp edge, like a drawn blade, extremely sharp.

Boom!

Lu Yunshi quickly sheathed his sword, then swung his long leg, sweeping out like an iron pillar. Terrifying spiritual energy roared continuously, like a wild bull.

That day, Yi still blocked with one hand. The enormous force made him retreat, but he only took three steps before stopping. Seeing this, Lu Yunshi did not hesitate, gathered his tiger momentum, and threw a punch.

Tianyi frowned slightly, stepped forward, and slapped the ground.

collapse!

The two exchanged blows, their spiritual energy colliding with the golden aura, causing bursts of energy to erupt continuously. Two seconds later, the two were forced back together.

Lu Yunshi retreated more than ten steps, while Tianyi stopped after only three steps.

However, after regaining their footing, neither of them paused and charged forward again.

Lu Yunshi's sword light shifted and changed, moving against the wind, seemingly carrying endless spring energy, constantly returning and forth. Tianyi's body shone with golden light, and the solid golden light showed no signs of being suppressed in the face of Lu Yunshi's sword shadows. On the contrary, it was more than capable of handling it. Tianyi even raised his fists and kicked under the protection of the golden light, and for a moment, no one could tell who was the one attacking.

With a loud bang, Lu Yunshi was hit by a punch, and a talisman on his body shattered. Lu Yunshi saw no reaction and immediately grabbed Tianyi's arm, raised his long sword, concentrated his energy on the blade, and tried to cut off his arm.

Just then, a light suddenly burst forth from the back of Tianyi's hand, and a rune flashed within it. Lu Yunshi felt a shock coming from him and immediately let go of his hand and retreated.

The next second, Tianyi's loosened hand suddenly gripped tightly, and shattered light surged from all around, like countless golden needles shooting out, but all of them missed their mark.

When Tianyi looked up at Lu Yun, he seemed somewhat surprised, but the surprise didn't last long.

Whoosh!Whoosh!

Tianyi stepped forward, his fist whistling like thunder, accompanied by golden spiritual energy that grazed Lu Yunshi's face, almost slicing off his skin. Yet, he didn't slow down at all, quickly swinging his sword to counter, while simultaneously gathering coldness and swirling it around the two of them.

The two moved extremely fast, and for a time it was impossible to determine a winner. Only the sound of intertwining booms could be heard from the flashing figures, and the vast field gradually turned into ruins.

Dozens of seconds later, Tianyi clenched his right fist, and light and shadow condensed, shooting out swiftly like a crossbow bolt.

Lu Yunshi felt a golden light fly towards him, and before he could even react, he was hit in the face and sent flying hundreds of meters away.

"Your talisman is about to expire."

As Lu Yunshi caught his breath, Tianyi slowly stepped forward and uttered the first words of the battle.

The two seemed to be fighting fiercely, but when they separated, everyone realized that Tianyi had few injuries, while Lu Yunshi was bleeding from the corner of his mouth.

"I thought you were mute." Lu Yunshi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, stood up and laughed.

Hearing Lu Yunshi's sarcasm, Tianyi showed no emotion, simply saying, "You're quite interesting. If you were also at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, you might have a ten percent chance of defeating me."

"Perhaps it is now." Lu Yunshi chuckled, seemingly still holding onto his confidence.

Upon hearing this, Tianyi silently shook his head and said nothing more. In his opinion, Lu Yunshi had already lost.

He spoke to Lu Yunshi simply because he found the man somewhat amusing; compared to those weak and decadent humans, this guy was already quite good.

"Hey, your contempt seems to be hard to hide now." Lu Yunshi walked up to Tianyi, his face covered in wounds, yet as calm as the wind. "I'm not the kind of person who can't accept being looked down upon, nor am I the kind of person who would rush up to demand justice if someone said a few bad things about my human race, but I do have reasons to fight you, and preferably... to win."

Tianyi stared at Lu Yunshi, remained silent for two seconds, and then uttered two words.

"Boring!"

Having said that, Tianyi raised his hand, his aura surged, and golden light gushed out like a fountain. In an instant, he threw a punch.

This punch, though seemingly slow, came quickly and was more powerful than any of his previous attacks.

However, this punch stopped right in front of Lu Yunshi.

In that instant, everyone showed expressions of shock, even Tianyi, whose expression had remained unchanged, was slightly taken aback.
