Martial Hero Rebirth

Qiankun!

Lin Yi's face took on a complex expression. Three years earlier, in Lanzhou City, Qiankun, along with others from the Five Heavenly Talents, was a person who was worshiped by everyone as an idol. Even Lin Yi had to bow to them then.

How quickly time flies.

In just four years in this world, he became the top celestial talent, accepted challenges from everyone at the Hero Conference, and Qiankun himself, the being to whom he should have bowed his head not long ago, challenged him.

The amazing thing is time. She turned small people into big ones, and leveled the mountains with the sea.

In the past, when Lin Yi was only a third-class expert, Qiankun was already at the peak of the second. The crowds adored him and called him their idol, while Lin Yi had to stand aside.

Cruel, heartless times. In just three years they swapped places.

It must be very unpleasant to challenge someone you wouldn't even notice until recently..

But no matter how strong and proud he was, now Qiankun could only take up arms and enter the ring.

“To fight!” exclaimed Qiankun, expressing a thousand feelings in two syllables.

“To fight!” Lin Yi accepted his challenge, understanding each of them perfectly.

What could be better than a fight against someone you once admired? What else can prove your development, and that everything is not in vain, than a victory over an invincible opponent from the past??

Snatching the sword from its sheath, Qiankun struck such a strong blow that the blade vibrated, tearing the air in its path..

Such a blow could not be deflected, otherwise it would immediately turn into a lunge, so Lin Yi put up a solid block.

«Bam!»

Sparks flew out in all directions, Lin Yi shrank slightly under the force despite the full power of the Violet Mist Divine Skill in his veins.

Tai Chi!

A thought suddenly flashed through his head. Mount Wudang had several flawless sutras, but only one of them concentrated so much on power.

Wudang Mountain in a sense included two schools, but Qiankun chose the martial art of one and the inner strength of the other, either by accident or through someone's tip, discovering one of the best synergies in the fist world!

Therefore, his inner strength was deeper, and his sword art allowed him to use this advantage to its fullest potential..

Lin Yi was surprised, but not afraid. Using his inner strength, he immediately counterattacked.

While the enemy relied on brute force, he had subtle cunning at his disposal. Nine Lonely Swords is one of the greatest techniques of this world and just one mistake in a duel against it led to defeat.

But Qiankun was not afraid, his sword suddenly changed its trajectory at some unimaginable angle, repelling Lin Yi’s blade.

You could say his defense was indestructible. Both in it and in attack he reached incredible heights.

Tai Chi swordsmanship, the highest art of Wudang, is one of the best in their sect and the strongest when combined with the inner strength of Tai Chi.

But as Lin Yi always said, there are no strongest arts, only the strongest people! Although this combination posed a great threat, he was not afraid.

“The Wudang arts are about slow, clumsy power!” Lin Yi grinned. “So now I will show you a quick and easy agility!”

Activating the speed to full, he delivered two dozen blows in an instant.

Techniques overlapped techniques, traps intersected with sudden attacks and dissolved like mirages, covering attacks from the opposite direction.

He used Death Chain, a supreme art, but it could not be underestimated. The techniques were layered on top of each other, each stronger than the previous one..

Qiankun's hands made turns, repelling one attack after another, sometimes defending against two swings with one block.

Naturally, Lin Yi did not stand still. He attacked from the side, then from behind, then from above, forcing the opponent to spin like a top and wonder which of the attacks was real. In one-on-one combat, the same principles apply as in the siege of fortresses. There are simple attacks, the strength of which lies on the surface, and there are cunning ones, at the same time going around from the rear.

Qiankun seemed to be fighting alone against the army. Attacks rained down on him from all directions, and if it weren’t for the aura of inner strength telling him from which direction the cold blade was approaching, he would have lost long ago.

Shiny blades surrounded him like an endless forest, they shone, blinding his eyes, and left behind afterimages that suddenly changed from one position to another..

Lin Yi’s speed was shocking. It was scary to think how slow the world must seem to him.

«Klang-klang-klang!»

The sparks sparkled as if fireworks were exploding, but suddenly everything stopped and all that was left of the afterimages was one person who had retreated a few steps.

Lin Yi did not expect that Qiankun had reached such incredible heights in defense. None of his attacks went through, there was no point in exhausting himself further.

Well, failure in battle was not yet a loss in the war. It just meant that a different approach was required.

You can't despair in battle. Only calm allows you to watch the fight soberly. The ability to keep your head cool is one of the main skills for martial arts experts. Without it, no matter what success a person achieves, he will never become a real master.

“Tai Chi fencing deserves its reputation,” praised Lin Yi.

“The arts of Huashan are also something to be envied,” Qiankun smiled. “You have reached amazing heights in the Three Heavenly Swords Deadly Chain. You are a true genius, Lin Yi.”

This was not an empty compliment, but sincere admiration.

How many other people in the world could reach such a level in the highest martial arts that they practically stood at the level of flawless? Qiankun was born only a little over twenty years ago, but in his life, it seems, he has never met anyone who has achieved the same heights.

“Lin Yi, if you respect me, then show your will of the sword,” Qiankun smiled. “Rumors say that just a few years ago, you achieved what countless masters at the peak of martial arts dream of. So show it to us!”

Lin Yi chuckled.

He wanted to save it for last, but he didn't want to disrespect a worthy opponent..

Without hesitation, he allowed his aura to fill the blade and his entire being suddenly changed.

The people around were blown by the wind, their clothes fluttered, and their hearts began to beat faster.

The aura of inner strength distorted the senses, it seemed that the whole world had gone dark, except for one shiny blade in its center.

At the same time, the higher their level of internal strength, the more clearly they felt it and the more terrible the sharpness of the blade seemed, which did not receive a single chip during all these fights..

Countless people opened their mouths in amazement.

“This... this is the will of the sword?”

People stuck their eyes out.

The will of the sword, whether small or great, exists in a thousand forms. Despite the name, it was actually an extension of the will of man becoming one with the weapon. Therefore, for each, the will of the sword took on its own form.

People with weak inner strength shrank, without understanding why. They couldn’t move, it became scary to even breathe.

Lin Yi himself knew how shallow his will was, but the others were shocked. This was a level that almost no one present in the city would touch..
