805. The Unrivaled Gale / 806. Mysterious and Melodious

Izayoi’s strength surged. With a sudden burst of power, he left countless wounds on the burly man.

Not only that, but the more he fought, the fiercer he became. The sword in his hand swung without pause as he launched one move after another at the burly man, every strike containing immense power.

Though the burly man was also a first-rate expert, he was forced back step by step when facing Izayoi. In the end, Izayoi knocked him to the ground.

Izayoi straddled the burly man, looking down at him as he planted a foot on his face.

"Do you still want to kill me?" Izayoi sneered.

"Don’t get ahead of yourself! I’ll never let you off! I’ll tear you to pieces!" the burly man roared.

Izayoi burst out laughing. "Do you think you can kill me? You think someone like you can kill me?" He stretched out his right hand, grabbed the burly man viciously, and pinned him into the grass.

His fists rained down on the burly man, quickly beating him until he was severely injured.

Chapter 805: Gale Invincible

The burly man shoved Izayoi away and fumbled around inside his clothes. Before long, a pill appeared in his hand. Its color was an unusually rare black. "Kid, you forced my hand!" The burly man swallowed the pill, and black, evil energy swirled around him, making the surroundings seem as though a demon had descended.

A streak of sword light flashed from the burly man’s hand, cutting Izayoi’s arm. He mocked, "Kid, weren’t you arrogant? This time, I’ll kill you!"

The burly man’s speed suddenly reached an extreme. In the blink of an eye, he was already beside Izayoi. A flying sword in Izayoi’s hand shot straight forward.

It collided directly with the sword in the burly man’s hand. The powerful shockwave transmitted through the blade made Izayoi’s entire right arm go numb.

Izayoi was secretly shocked. This burly man’s swordsmanship was actually so formidable. He was completely different from before.

Knowing he was no match for the burly man, Izayoi hurriedly retreated. Yet as he backed away, the burly man relentlessly pursued him, attacking fiercely without giving him any respite. Izayoi had no choice but to use his flying sword to defend himself.

Boom!

Izayoi’s flying sword collided with the burly man’s sword, and enormous energy erupted from the blades. Izayoi was blasted away by that force. After landing, he staggered back several more steps before steadying himself.

Izayoi was utterly stunned. This burly man truly was far stronger than him. He was no match for him at all.

Izayoi’s expression darkened. He knew that he had to escape now. If he remained here any longer, he would definitely die. A long saber appeared in Izayoi’s hand.

A cold flash gleamed as he slashed at the burly man. A blade aura tore through the air, carrying piercing killing intent as it viciously cut toward the burly man’s throat.

The burly man snorted coldly and stepped forward, his body shooting at Izayoi like a cannonball. Izayoi’s heart tightened.

He hurriedly swung his saber to meet him. He knew that if this strike failed to cut the burly man in two, he would surely die at the other man’s hands.

Bang!

The saber and sword collided. The burly man’s steps paused slightly, while Izayoi was sent flying backward and crashed heavily onto the ground.

This gave the burly man an opportunity. His longsword instantly arrived before Izayoi. Izayoi hurriedly raised his saber to block, but he had no chance of winning. The webs between his thumbs and forefingers split open.

Blood flowed freely as the flying sword in his hand slipped out of his control and fell from the sky. Izayoi hurriedly picked it up, but he did not dare draw his saber, fearing that the burly man would cut his flying sword in half with a single strike.

Fine beads of sweat had appeared on Izayoi’s forehead. He knew that he no longer had any chance of victory. He knew that as long as this burly man slashed at his neck, his head would roll to the ground.

Yet he had no way to stop him now. All he could do was wait for death.

The burly man sneered. "Kid, what do you have to say now?"

Izayoi ignored him. The only thing he could do now was stall for time.

"What? Kid, there’s no room for resistance now, is there?"

"Hmph. If I can leave this place alive, I’ll definitely take revenge."

Izayoi forced himself to sound tough. He did not want to lose in terms of momentum either. After all, he was someone of standing and could not afford to lose face.

"Haha, you really are arrogant. You don’t even know how the word ‘death’ is written!"

"Then let’s see who dies first and who lives."

"Fine!" With that, the burly man thrust his longsword at Izayoi’s throat.

Izayoi’s eyes shifted as he decided to use his ultimate move.

Chapter 806: Mysterious and Melodious

Izayoi’s ultimate move was an enhancement technique called Gale Invincible. After using it, he would receive the favor of the wind element and be greatly strengthened. "Gale Invincible!" Izayoi roared, and a surge of Gale Force formed around his body. His aura rose steadily.

Izayoi looked at the burly man. There was now more confidence between his brows, as though victory was already within his grasp.

"Burly man! It’s not too late to surrender now. Otherwise, death will be your only path."

The burly man replied arrogantly, "Kid, who do you think you’re talking to? Believe it or not, I’ll smash your head apart with one punch!"

Izayoi did not take the burly man’s arrogance to heart. A smile played on his lips as he said calmly, "Want to try? Then go ahead."

The burly man snorted. He knew Izayoi was trying to provoke him, but he still chose to take the bait.

"Fine! Since you’re looking to die, I’ll grant your wish!"

The burly man threw a punch at Izayoi’s face, moving as fast as lightning.

Izayoi smiled disdainfully and flashed aside, avoiding the attack.

When the burly man saw Izayoi evade his strike, he was greatly shocked. He had not expected Izayoi to be so powerful that he could even dodge his attack.

"Kid, you’re fast! Not bad! Judging by your skills, you should be an expert! No wonder you dared to be so arrogant!"

Izayoi smiled faintly. "Who I am is none of your business. You only need to know that you will definitely die tonight."

"Hmph! Anyone can talk big!" The burly man snorted and continued attacking.

Izayoi easily avoided his attacks, then counterattacked. His speed was extremely fast.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The two clashed continuously, collision after violent collision.

Their attacks were both fierce. Every exchange produced deafening explosions that shook the entire valley.

"Haha! This kid really is impressive. No wonder he dared to be so arrogant. So he does have some real skill. Let me see what abilities he has that make him dare act so arrogantly. But do you think you can defeat me? Dream on!"

The burly man spoke as he dodged.

A cold smile hung on his face, as though he believed Izayoi could never defeat him.

Izayoi cast the burly man a casual glance. He said nothing and attacked directly, every move filled with dominance.

Bang!

A fist slammed viciously into the burly man’s chest. The burly man was sent flying and crashed heavily to the ground with a dull thud.

Pain appeared on the burly man’s face. He climbed to his feet, his eyes bloodshot.

"Brat, you’re courting death!"

Bang!

The moment the burly man got up, Izayoi was already before him. He threw another kick. This time, the burly man did not dodge and instead took it head-on with his body.

Crack!

With the sound of bones shattering, the burly man was sent flying backward and smashed into a pile of firewood in the distance with a dull impact.

He spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes bloodshot as he glared viciously at Izayoi. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Brat, you’re courting death!"

At that moment, Izayoi had already arrived beside him. The sword in Izayoi’s hand emitted a brilliant glow, shining as brightly as the sun.

The longsword sliced directly through the burly man’s throat. He could not even resist before Izayoi killed him on the spot, his eyes still wide open.

Even at the moment of his death, he did not understand what he had done wrong. He could only die with regret.

Chapter 807: My Ultimate Move

A ray of light caught Izayoi’s attention. It resembled stars and the moon, looking mysterious and melodious, delighting Izayoi’s spirit. Only after approaching did he discover that it was a sword. He picked it up, and a surge of power flowed from the sword into his body, making him shudder. "This sword is truly miraculous. This is great!"

His strength had been greatly enhanced, which came as a pleasant surprise to him. "Wonderful! This way, I won’t have to fear powerful enemies anymore!"

Suddenly, a muscular burly man appeared before Izayoi. His muscles twitched continuously as though they were alive. His eyes were wide open, and he was clearly no kind person.

Izayoi asked, "Who are you?" His hand secretly tightened around his sword. He knew a fierce battle was about to begin.

The muscular burly man swept his longsword, slicing toward Izayoi’s neck at an astonishing speed.

Clang!

Izayoi blocked the other man’s sword with a strike of his own, but the force was so great that he could not help taking several steps back.

Izayoi cursed inwardly, Damn it!

Seeing Izayoi retreat several steps, the muscular burly man’s eyes revealed intense killing intent. His attacks did not stop. Instead, he kept stabbing at Izayoi, every move lethal, as though determined to kill him.

Bang!

At that moment, Izayoi’s true energy erupted. He gathered the true energy within his body and struck back viciously, sending the muscular burly man flying.

The muscular burly man landed on the ground, stomped on it again, and shot back up, charging at Izayoi once more. Izayoi snorted coldly and swung his sword again, slashing at the muscular burly man.

Clang!

The muscular burly man was knocked down again, crashing heavily to the ground. Yet he showed no sign of giving up. He climbed back up and charged at Izayoi once more.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Izayoi swung his sword continuously, one strike after another. Every strike carried tremendous force and could knock his opponent down in an instant, but the other man’s reaction speed was exceptionally sharp.

Each time, he could evade at the most critical moment. Furthermore, his angles were incredibly tricky, always causing Izayoi’s attacks to miss. This made Izayoi struggle more and more.

Seeing this, the muscular burly man charged at Izayoi again. Cold flashes flickered in his hand as a short blade appeared.

He viciously chopped at Izayoi’s waist, immediately opening a bloody gash.

Izayoi endured the pain and swung his sword down again. However, because of his earlier mistake, he was once again cut down to the ground.

This time, the other man gave him no chance to catch his breath. He charged over again, constantly swinging the short blade in his hand, every blow aimed at Izayoi’s body.

The short blade severed Izayoi’s hands, and blood streamed from his arms. Enduring the agonizing pain, he leaped up and kicked viciously at the other man’s head, sending him flying with a single kick.

However, even after being kicked away, the other man’s attacks continued to rush at Izayoi, making him extremely furious.

Izayoi roared, "Damn it, I’ll tear you to pieces!" He swung his sword at the other man, intending to destroy him completely.

However, at that moment, a figure appeared before him and blocked Izayoi’s sword. It was that burly man. The two sides continued exchanging blows with the swords in their hands.

Chapter 808: A Fierce Ghost from Hell

Izayoi stared at the muscular burly man, light gleaming in his eyes as though he were looking at a novel toy. He was extremely excited about this opponent. "Not bad. You’re a decent opponent, very strong. But this battle should end now! Let me show you my ultimate move!"

The muscular burly man was unconcerned. He believed Izayoi was merely bluffing. What ultimate move could the other party possibly have? It was surely a lie!

Izayoi’s longsword was like a soaring dragon. Looking at the burly man, he said, "Next, I’ll show you my true strength! Dragon-Soaring Sword Technique!"

The moment Izayoi finished speaking, his sword shot forth like an arrow released from its bow, stabbing directly toward the burly man’s throat. The muscular burly man’s eyes widened, filled with fear and shock. He seemed not to have expected the youth before him to possess such strength!

The muscular burly man held an enormous saber, half a meter long. He swung it at Izayoi, but Izayoi dodged the attack.

Izayoi lightly tapped the ground with his toes, his figure flickering unpredictably as he evaded strike after strike from the burly man. The muscular burly man could only watch helplessly as Izayoi blocked his saber, unable to hit Izayoi at all.

Izayoi unleashed three consecutive strikes, all evaded by the burly man. Yet he did not stop attacking. Instead, he became increasingly violent. The muscles in his arms bulged, veins covered his arms, and his entire face twisted into a savage expression.

Watching the muscular burly man’s ferocious face, Izayoi thought, Interesting! Then his wrist flicked, and he pushed the Dragon-Soaring Sword Technique to its limit. Sword light flashed like lightning, so swift it was impossible to track.

Yet the burly man’s great saber always blocked it at the last possible instant. A faint smile rose on Izayoi’s lips. "Now this is getting interesting!"

Izayoi gripped his sword with both hands and charged swiftly at the burly man. The burly man rushed forward as well. His speed was not the slightest bit slower than Izayoi’s and even seemed somewhat faster.

This surprised Izayoi. He had not expected the burly man before him to be so formidable. Not only could he block three of Izayoi’s sword strikes, but he could also barely fight him to a draw.

"Haha! Little Brother Izayoi, it seems you’re no match for me either. Why don’t you just admit defeat?"

"Admit defeat?" Izayoi snorted coldly upon hearing that. "I’ve never known what admitting defeat means. I only know that victory is victory only when you win. So I will never give up!"

The moment Izayoi finished speaking, the Dragon-Soaring Sword in his hand stabbed out again. This time, its trajectory changed endlessly as it rapidly stabbed toward the burly man’s chest. The burly man swung his enormous saber.

…Please send flowers…

He blocked Izayoi’s Dragon-Soaring Sword, but Izayoi took the opportunity to kick out with his right leg, striking the burly man directly in the stomach. The burly man was sent flying dozens of meters away, crashing heavily onto the grass and spitting out a large mouthful of blood.

"Damn it, Izayoi! You’re far too despicable!" the burly man roared furiously.

Izayoi looked at the burly man and smiled.
