Above the wharf, the bright moon hung in the sky, cold wind cut to the bone, not a cloud in sight.

The seawater, mind-controlled by Antonio, turned into lethal arrows, slicing through air resistance, whistling as they suddenly appeared in front of Ye Xunhuan.

Numerous arrows of water, dazzling and eerily unpredictable.

Facing the water arrows condensed from the sea, Ye Xunhuan’s face filled with an unprecedented solemnity, hastily gathering all the True Qi in his body onto the blade, and swiftly slashed out!

"Swoosh!"

The longsword immediately burst into brilliance, illuminating the night like a bright pearl, lighting up the darkness!

"Boom!"

Several fierce Sword Qi clashed with the water arrows, instantly creating a thunderous noise, followed by droplets rapidly falling from the sky, as if a fine rain had suddenly started, leaving the ground damp.

Just as Ye Xunhuan unleashed his sword, Antonio had already reached him, his hand-held meteor radiating a demonic red glow, like a bloodthirsty beast that suddenly opened its gaping maw, lunging at Ye Xunhuan as if to swallow him whole!

"Ssslah..."

As the meteor stabbed toward Ye Xunhuan, a piercing tearing sound suddenly echoed all around, as if a piece of fabric had been ripped apart.

This was the sound of Ye Xunhuan’s defensive chi-energy shield being torn, the noise made by the meteor ripping through it.

Just as the meteor was about to hit Ye Xunhuan, a look of excitement flashed in Antonio’s eyes, and a thrilled expression slowly surfaced on his face!

In Antonio’s view, it seemed certain that this blow would strike Ye Xunhuan.

Qianhuan Lanqin, witnessing this scene, immediately showed a look of horror on her face. If Ye Xunhuan were pierced, he would surely have no grave to bury him!

But in the next moment, a bizarre scene unfolded. After Antonio’s meteor pierced through Ye Xunhuan’s body, not a single drop of blood spilled out, and Ye Xunhuan’s body, like a woven tapestry, like special effects from countless movies, began to disintegrate into particles and slowly vanished!

Seeing this, a bad premonition suddenly surged in Antonio’s heart.

Before he could react, a terrifying murderous intent enveloped him instantly, accompanied by an intense sense of impending death, causing Antonio to feel as if he had plunged into an icy cave!

"Swoosh!"

Immediately after, a cold gleam plummeted from the sky like a falling meteor!

With danger descending, Antonio almost instinctively dodged to the side.

Although Antonio, relying on his years of combat experience, managed to dodge on instinct, it was already a moment too late!

"Pfft!"

A dull sound echoed as a gaping wound suddenly appeared on Antonio’s right shoulder, blood running down his arm, and in an instant, his entire right arm was soaked red with blood.

The blood trailing down his fingers did not drop to the ground but was completely absorbed by the meteor in his hand, eerily so.

Qianhuan Lanqin and her sister Qianhuan Liuyun were completely astonished by this sight.

Just now, like Antonio, they had believed that Ye Xunhuan was dead for sure, but who could have anticipated such a dramatic reversal!

Not only was Ye Xunhuan unharmed, but it was Antonio whose arm had been gravely wounded by Ye Xunhuan. Had he not dodged swiftly, he might already be a corpse.

Even at his worst, it’s likely that Antonio had already suffered severe damage, but even so, Antonio’s strength has already been greatly discounted!

The next moment, Ye Xunhuan’s figure descended from mid-air, whole person wielding a longsword, like a War God himself!

"Teleportation!" Antonio looked at Ye Xunhuan with a grim face, "Legend has it, in the ancient Qinggong of Huaxia, there’s a Cultivation Technique known as ’Shrinking Earth into Inches,’ which at a high level allows a practitioner to move with teleportation-like speed!"

"Marshal, is this that legendary ’Shrinking Earth into Inches’?"

"I do know a bit about ’Shrinking Earth into Inches,’ but I’m still quite a distance away from it!" Ye Xunhuan said in a low voice, "But even so, it’s enough to deal with you!"

"It seems I must bring out a hundred percent of my combat power!" Antonio said intently, staring at Ye Xunhuan.

"Were you only using half your power to fight me until now?"

Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, the color in Antonio’s face turned black in an instant, not knowing what to say.

If he had been using only half of his strength against Ye Xunhuan until now, then he probably would already be a dead man by this point.

After that, Antonio didn’t say much more, his bloodstained right hand directly channeling the meteor in his hand towards Ye Xunhuan.

At this moment, perhaps because the meteor was tainted with Antonio’s own blood, the demon blade meteor looked even more bizarre, not to mention that the eerie bloodlight appeared as if an ancient, slumbering beast had awakened!

"Whoosh!"

A swing of the blade immediately kicked up a gale, the wind swept up a ripple of air, rushing towards Ye Xunhuan.

Ye Xunhuan snorted coldly, then fearlessly swung his sword to meet the attack head-on!

Qianhuan Lan Qin and Qianhuan Liu Yun, watching this scene unfold, felt their hearts shocked beyond belief. These two people were simply too terrifying. If they were to face people like them, apart from death, was there really any other path to take?

The sword in Ye Xunhuan’s hand was like lightning, whistling past as it flashed across mid-air, while Antonio utilized his own unique abilities and strength to fight a desperate battle against Ye Xunhuan, turning the entire dock into complete ruins.

Powerful fluctuations of True Qi, as well as Antonio’s unique abilities, flipped everything around them, especially at the moment when the Sword Qi and the unique abilities collided. The resulting energy waves were incredibly terrifying, as if they were about to shatter the surrounding space itself.

The speed of Ye Xunhuan and Antonio’s attacks grew faster and more urgent, and before one beam of sword light had even fallen, another cold gleam was already streaking toward them.

Suddenly, Ye Xunhuan’s swordplay shifted, he swung fiercely, directly drawing out a symbol of Tai Chi and rapidly chopped towards Antonio!

"Huff, huff..."

With this sword stroke, Antonio’s face underwent a tremendous change, and he felt completely engulfed by a dreadful Sword Intent, which seemed to also transport him to another parallel dimension, isolating everything around!

Danger!

An unprecedented sense of danger surged in his heart!

Antonio urgently raised his hands, and the ground seemed to start shaking, soon after, as if bamboo shoots were sprouting from the ground below, they shot up directly in front of him as a shield!

"Boom!"

The Tai Chi-like Sword Qi unleashed by Ye Xunhuan destroyed it entirely, its power undiminished as it bore down rapidly on Antonio!

"Bang!"

The Sword Qi struck Antonio’s chest directly, the agonizing pain there was one thing, but the sensation of his insides churning like a turbulent sea forced him to spew out a mouthful of fresh blood, and his body, like a kite with a snapped string, flew backwards into the waters behind him!
