Chapter 470 True Control
Sword Demon's gaze fell on the [Sword of Royal Authority].
A swordsman who lets his sword slip from his hand is, in his view, utterly unforgivable.
But that's Xu Si and the Sword of Kings' fighting style.
Only after the Sword of Kingship was released from his hand did Xu Si truly feel liberated.
His swordsmanship was already rather loose, which actually made both of them feel more relaxed.
Or rather, the Sword Demon is now facing two opponents.
The guidance that Xu Si wanted was more like the guidance that the Sword of Kings wanted.
It can't just stick its sword inside the enemy's stomach and wreak havoc every time!
Wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing?
Xu Si, on the other hand, focused more on accumulating combat experience.
"This is not the way of the sword."
These words seemed to be directed at Xu Si, but Jian Gui's gaze never left the [Sword of Kingship].
"..." Xu Si didn't know what to say.
The sword of the King's Power hummed softly, which served as an answer for Xu Si.
A second wave of clashes has begun.
Xu Si took the initiative again, his right palm clenching loosely, and star power condensed into a scarlet ball of light in his palm.
The Starlink Mark was launched simultaneously, this time not on the ground, but directly in the air within a three-meter radius around the Sword Demon.
After advancing to a higher rank, his control over stellar power had become so precise as to be almost pathological, at least in his opinion.
Sword Demon is faster than Xu Si.
It didn't even give Xu Si a chance to continue gathering power. Its figure left a silvery-white afterimage in the air, and its five fingers were joined together like a sword, stabbing straight at Xu Si's face.
It was that same simple, straightforward thrust once again.
Simple, direct, and fast to the point of being unreasonable.
Xu Si's starry eyes caught its trajectory, but his body didn't have enough time to react.
He had no choice but to initiate Starlink Jump again.
The moment his figure vanished from his spot, Jian Gui's fingers swept across three inches from his forehead, leaving a thin, hair-like bloodstain between his brows with that sharp sword intent.
Ten meters away, Xu Si's figure appeared in the air.
He raised his hand and touched his brow, his fingertip stained with a little scarlet.
"Can you dodge this time?"
The sword demon's voice came from beside him again.
Xu Si's star pulse perception couldn't even keep up with the speed of the sword ghost.
Xu Si did not hesitate at all and jumped directly, without even specifying the jump location.
The speed of the King's Sword could not keep up with the Sword Demon; it was almost running alongside the Sword Demon's figure.
Only after Xu Si leaped over did he discover that a sword-wielding figure had already swung a sword at the spot.
Xu Sixing sensed three more sword demons.
This guy can even create clones?
Xu Si's pupils suddenly contracted.
There were four sword-wielding figures in total, each one so realistic that it didn't seem like an afterimage.
The silvery-white sword intent intertwined in the air, forming an impenetrable net, waiting for Xu Si to walk right into it.
Time freezes
Sword Demon's figure paused for a moment.
But it was only a brief pause.
The silvery-white sword intent had already surged in from all directions, enveloping Xu Si.
Xu Si barely managed to dodge the attack.
Meanwhile, the other three sword demons surged toward Xu Si during this pause, and the four sword demons completely locked down all possible spaces in which Xu Si could move.
The spatial anchor point that Xu Si had landed on earlier seemed to have been cleared or locked by Jian Gui in some unknown way.
There is no escape route.
Starlight swirled wildly across his body, enveloping him in a dazzling, crimson glow.
The sword of kingship returned from afar, its dark golden light leaving a long trail in the air, like a shooting star moving in reverse.
But it was too late.
The sword intent of the sword demon had already adhered to his skin.
The feeling wasn't like being cut by a sharp instrument, but rather like being pierced by countless needles as thin as hairs at the same time, from the skin to the fascia, from the fascia to the bone, every inch felt like it was being dismantled.
"Gravity Anchor Point Leap"
Xu Si had no choice but to use warp again. In those few short moments, Xu Si used warp to evade attacks almost the entire time.
They didn't even have a chance to fight back.
Fortunately, before he jumped, he dropped the Starburst he had been holding for who knows how long.
This was Xu Si's first effective attack.
boom--
Crimson energy exploded in the very center of the sword demon's encirclement.
The power of the Starburst was amplified many times after advancing to Sequence 7. The diameter of the light sphere at the center of the explosion exceeded tens of meters, and this was the result of Xu Si intentionally controlling the power.
The intense torrent of energy spread outwards, evaporating all the gravel and moss on the ground into grayish-white smoke and dust.
Before the smoke and dust had even cleared, the four figures of the Sword Demon merged back into one, and that silver-white body was already standing on the edge of the explosion.
Her slender figure remained completely still, not even the hem of her skirt was lifted—if you could call it a skirt.
It glanced down at its own arm.
On its silvery-white metallic skin, there was a distinct scorch mark, like silk burned by a cigarette butt.
"Not bad attack," the swordsman said, a rare compliment.
Although it wasn't his most admired swordsmanship, it was still quite remarkable.
"But it's still a long way off."
Xu Si was being a bit too arrogant.
The reason he was so eager to fight was because his target was the enemy, [Mist Mound Giant Tuo], whom he had killed with a single blow.
Compared to [Sword Ghost], these two oddities, both of which are Sequence 7, are simply incomparable.
Therefore, not only are there differences in the sequences, but the differences between the odd ones are even greater.
Xu Si thought of what Wan Liuchun had said, realizing that his understanding of high-order sequences was still too shallow.
The power of high-order sequences is still only partially understood.
So, how exactly can we unleash the full potential of the high-order sequence?
This was the first time Xu Si had seriously considered this issue.
After advancing to Sequence 7, his biggest feeling was not the increase in power, but the disappearance of a certain constraint.
It's like a person who has always been walking in shackles suddenly having their burden removed; every step feels so light it's almost unreal.
The most obvious difference is that before the high-level sequence, he still needs to rely on star attraction to float.
However, after advancing to Sequence 7, he will be able to achieve it through his own power.
This is just the simplest change.
However, these changes, when applied to combat, became obstacles.
Before reaching the higher ranks, he was used to a meticulous and calculated fighting style, always thinking about how to put himself in the most advantageous position and launch the easiest attacks.
However, since his battle with Mei Lin, his thoughts, mindset, and fighting style have undergone subtle changes.
Now, everything seems different.
First, his sequence energy has reached an indescribable level.
The key material for advancing to a higher rank—the star core.
It seemed that the moment he advanced to Sequence 7, he transformed into the purest liquid energy, reshaping his very essence as a human being.
His previously awakened characteristics also seem to have merged into the instincts of the sequence, his instincts.
He can control Starfall, Starburst, and Seiya with ease, without even needing to prepare.
But he's still using the same fighting style as before.
As Wanliuchun said, he has not yet truly mastered Sequence 7.
