After Geng Yi broke through to the combined armor stage, the power of his sword made a qualitative leap. The combination of human and sword he used could easily suppress or even crush the cold light spear force used on the first night. In other words, the attack on the first night was against He poses no threat at all.
Nangong Bingyu also knew this, but she was more curious about what would happen after receiving Geng Yi's knife on the first night, so she asked again.
"Although my attack cannot hurt him, the cold light should be able to weaken his sword by 70 to 80%."
First Night said, he chuckled lightly when he saw Nangong Bingyu nodding, his heroic face revealing strong self-confidence: "The Dao Gang, which only has 10% or 20% of its power, will definitely not be able to do anything to me."
"Indeed, after all, your defense has been qualitatively improved after comprehending the Thunder Golden Bell. A sword with only 20% to 30% power is not enough to break your defense."
Nangong Bingyu Zhen nodded, her pretty face full of envy: "This is the benefit of understanding more secret techniques. I'm a little envious of you."
"What is there to be envious of? If you had used the body-protecting sword during the previous battle with Geng Yi, how could you have been so seriously injured?"
The first night I couldn't help but complain again, but I felt more distressed.
Yes, Nangong Bingyu can use the Protective Sword Gang because her attainments in sword intent have improved a lot compared to before, and the Golden Light Curse for Protective Body has also improved a bit, so her defense of the Protective Sword Gang is no better than the first night. The difference between the Thunder and the Golden Bell can definitely withstand the remaining sword attack with this method.
"A monk in the combined armor stage can condense energy armor, and its defense should be no worse than my body-protecting sword."
Nangong Bingyu said, looking in the direction of Geng Yi: "If Geng Yi doesn't use the energy armor, naturally I won't be able to use the body-protecting sword."
The combined armor stage, as the name suggests, means that after the monks break through to this realm, they can use their majestic Qi to condense energy armor, and the solid armor covers the whole body. This is much more powerful than defensive means such as body protection ice armor, and I am afraid it will only last the first night. The Thunder Golden Bell and Nangong Bingyu's body-protecting sword are comparable to them.
"Why bother."
I said this again on the first night.
"The discussion must be fair."
Nangong Bingyu still insisted.
"Brother Geng is at a higher level than you, so this competition is no longer fair."
"I don't care, what I pursue is fairness."
"You're a bit clumsy."
"Have I been a little too gentle to you recently? I find that you are a little too arrogant."
"Um?"
"We will have a good discussion after I recover to my peak. I recently learned a new swordsmanship, and you will be the first one to try it. How about I treat you well?"
"No, please don't just let your strength speak for itself, okay?"
"What's the point of not speaking with strength? In this era, isn't it all about strength? Could it be that with your mouth, you can kill powerful beasts with just a few words?"
"Uh, this..."
"What, are you running out of words?"
"I feel like you are a bit unreasonable, or you can only bully me."
"It's your honor for me to bully you, young lady. I don't even bother to bully others if they ask me to bully them."
"I'm a little flattered when you say that."
"It's okay, you can bear it."
"You really know how to climb along the pole..."
"What, you don't accept it?!"
"I accept it, I accept it, of course I accept it."
…
After a period of silence, Yi Ye was the first to break the silence. He asked curiously: "You said before that you understood a sword skill. It should be very powerful. Why didn't you use it on Brother Geng before?"
"I said I want you to be the first to try, so naturally I can't take advantage of others."
Nangong Bingyu looked at the first night without any intention of joking.
"Well, I don't care if you take advantage of others, and I feel like you don't have the confidence to perform it perfectly, so you're training with me."
On the first night, he said sarcastically. Seeing Nangong Bingyu's pretty face with a sad expression, he hurriedly changed his tone: "Okay, let me see you if you have time."
Only then was Nangong Bingyu satisfied, and then she continued to cling to Qi Ye, mobilizing Qi to repair the damaged meridians while receiving treatment from Murong Xiaoxiao.
Although Nangong Bingyu's injury was a bit serious, Murong Xiaoxiao's treatment effect improved a lot after breaking through to the bone-tempering stage, especially after absorbing a lot of herbal essences, so she was cured quickly.
Then Murong Xiaoxiao did not stay and continued to treat Geng Yi.
Because Geng Yi's injury was slightly lighter, and because Murong Xiaoxiao was also mobilizing Qi to heal the injury while Murong Xiaoxiao was treating Nangong Bingyu, he recovered quickly.
After completing the treatment for the two of them, Murong Xiaoxiao is still in good condition. From this, it can be seen that her current treatment ability is much improved than before.
Everyone saw Murong Xiaoxiao's condition in their eyes, and for a while they felt more confident about their future actions.
Although the battle between Geng Yi and Nangong Bingyu ended in a draw, everyone would not underestimate the improvement in strength achieved by breaking through to the combined armor stage.
Thinking about it, Geng Yi had just made a breakthrough and had not tempered the Qi in the crystal soul at all. He could not even condense the energy armor. This naturally could not reflect the true strength of the combined armor stage.
Once Geng Yi completely stabilizes his realm, his combat power will make a qualitative leap, and defeating Nangong Bingyu will be a piece of cake.
In addition, everyone is also very aware of Nangong Bingyu's strength and methods. After breaking through to the late stage of bone tempering, her strength has made a qualitative leap. Geng Yi can draw with her, which is enough to prove that he is strong. After all, they have competed before. They were all defeated by him.
After Geng Yi and the two broke through, Tong Wei, Long Yuan and Yaksha felt more or less pressure, and they couldn't wait to break through.
Of course, Nangong Bingyu and Second Meng also felt some pressure, especially Nangong Bingyu.
Nangong Bingyu has always been strong, she doesn't want to be defeated by Geng Yi, and she also knows very well that even if she can use the ancient sword to refine it to improve the sword's will and even strength, it will be far less than the improvement of Geng Yi's solid state. She is even more eager to break through to a higher realm.
As for the first night, let alone him. He, who is the lowest among the people, undoubtedly hopes to break through the realm the most.
In this way, everyone continued to be immersed in cultivation.
Because Geng Yi and Yang Xiao successfully broke through to the combined armor stage and then made a qualitative leap in strength, this made them further relax on the first night, and they no longer worried about the powerful alien beast coming to sneak attack.
Of course, on the first night, they still hope that the powerful beast will attack as late as possible. It is best to wait until Geng Yi and Yang Xiao have completely stabilized their realm, because at that time, the strength of the two of them will be much stronger than now, and they will have a better chance of resisting it. Resist or even kill them.
Soon it was night again, and everyone continued to spar and recover after dinner.
"Brother Geng, don't compete with others in the next few days. It's best to stay at your peak."
When he came to Geng Yi on the first night, he deliberately lowered his voice so that only the two of them could hear it.
Staring at the first night, Geng asked after a moment: "Did you also feel that dangerous aura?"
Although he was asking, Geng Yi's tone was very firm. Before the first night opened his mouth, he nodded: "I understand, and I am not suitable for discussing with others before I have completely stabilized my realm."
Obviously, like Nangong Bingyu, although Geng Yi did not sense any powerful beasts around him, he still instinctively felt the danger. However, he was indifferent by nature and did not tell anyone about it.
Now that he heard the first night's instructions, Geng understood his intention in an instant.
Thinking about it, if it were anyone else, after hearing First Night's instructions, they would definitely think that he was worried that the sparring would affect the speed of stabilizing the state, and only Geng Yi understood that he was worried that there would be a powerful alien beast in front of him. Come for a sneak attack.
At this time, Geng Yi is undoubtedly the most powerful person among the people, and he is the absolute main force in dealing with powerful beasts, so he needs to remain in peak condition.
"Yes, that's why I set up so many warning traps. You know, I didn't set them up when I stopped in other places."
The first night nodded, and after a short pause, he continued: "So you need to stay at your peak."
"clear."
Geng Yi nodded lightly, then said no more, and continued to temper the Qi in the crystal soul with all his strength to stabilize his state.
He didn't say much on the first night and turned around to return to Nangong Bingyu.
"Geng Yi agreed?"
Nangong Bingyu asked, and after seeing the first night nodding, a smile appeared on her lips: "Then we can have a fun competition."
Nangong Bingyu also knew that there were powerful beasts around. She did not dare to compete with Qi Ye unscrupulously when Geng Yi was not at his peak. It was precisely because of this that she and Qi Ye decided to let him go after discussion. I went to discuss it with Geng Yi on the first night.
"Although Brother Geng agreed, there is no need for us to fight with all our strength."
The first night shook his head, and when he saw Nangong Bingyu's face turned slightly cold, he hurriedly changed his tone: "It's always right to be cautious, especially since Brother Geng has just broken through and hasn't stabilized his realm yet. Besides, you didn't say that you have mastered a sword skill. Well, wouldn’t it be enough to just show this sword?”
Thinking that the first night was already familiar with his other sword skills, and the most important thing was that he was a cautious person, Nangong Bingyu nodded and said: "Okay, let's decide the outcome with one sword."
After that, the two of them didn't say much on the first night. They came to the center of the square and stood still. Although they didn't take action, their aura kept rising, and the surrounding void became stagnant under the terrifying pressure.
Because he knew that Nangong Bingyu could only perform one sword move, he was prepared to use all his strength to perform one strike on the first night, and his strongest strike was undoubtedly Han Mang.
That's right, in terms of single target attack, Han Mang is undoubtedly the strongest.
Although Fuyao's power is also very powerful, even more powerful than Hanmang to some extent, because this kind of marksmanship is used on air targets, and Nangong Bingyu obviously has no intention of taking off, it is naturally not suitable for use.
The actions of Nangong Bingyu and Nangong Bingyu immediately attracted everyone's attention, including Geng Yi, because they knew very well that the competition between the two would be exciting.
Of course, the most important thing is that the first night has not sparred with anyone for a while, and they want to know how strong he is.
"Bingyu, just in case, use the body-protecting sword."
The first night said, and while saying this, he did not hesitate to use the Thunder Golden Bell.
On the first night, it was clear that Nangong Bingyu was an extremely strong person. If he didn't use the Thunder Golden Bell, she would definitely not use defensive methods. After all, this was fair, so he would use it first.
Sure enough, after seeing Nangong Bingyu use the Thunder Golden Bell on the first night, he also used the Protective Sword Gang.
What's more, a bone-chilling chill condensed around Nangong Bingyu's body. Snowflakes were falling all over the sky, and there was a faint feeling of being frozen for thousands of miles.
Some people died, but not completely...
