Shenwu Yutianlei

Chapter 241 Escaped?

The battle between the man and the monster reached a stalemate. Both sides fought back and forth, neither giving in. Every attack of Shen Yun was as fierce as the wind, with a resolute momentum, but the defense of the Wave Devouring Beast was also indestructible. Its huge body flexibly dodged Shen Yun's deadly sword moves, and at the same time tried to break through Shen Yun's defense with a fierce counterattack.

Shen Yun also began to have some wounds on his body. Some of those wounds were scratched by the sharp claws of the Wave Devourer, and some were hit by its wildly swinging tail. Blood oozed from the wounds, staining his clothes red, but there was no fear or retreat in Shen Yun's eyes.

This made Lin Ruyi, who was watching from the side, look worried. He tightly grasped the long sword in his right hand.

Of course, the Wave Devourer had many wounds on its body. Shen Yun's sharp sword energy left deep marks on its body, and some of the wounds were bleeding, staining its fur red. But the Wave Devourer's ferocity did not diminish at all. It still roared and attacked, with desperate madness in its eyes.

Sweat slid down Shen Yun's forehead, mixed with blood, and dripped into the turbulent river water under his feet. But his heart was full of excitement and joy, because this was also a hearty battle. Every time he fought with the Wave Devourer, he felt that the limit of his own strength was constantly challenged, and every time he narrowly avoided the attack of the Wave Devourer, his fighting skills became more proficient.

In this life-and-death battle, Shen Yun seemed to have forgotten everything. He had only one belief in his heart, which was to defeat the powerful opponent in front of him. The sword energy in his hand became more and more fierce, and the spiritual power around him became more and more turbulent. He wanted to use this battle to prove his strength and determination.

The Wave Devourer was not to be outdone, its roar resounded through the sky, and every movement of its huge body created huge waves. It believed that Shen Yun was a powerful enemy that was difficult to deal with, but its pride as a demon beast did not allow it to retreat in the slightest. It would rely on its own powerful strength and fighting instinct to completely defeat this human who dared to challenge it.

The entire river surface was turned upside down by their fight, with splashing waves and surging spiritual energy. This fierce battle seemed to have no end, but Shen Yun firmly believed that the final victory would belong to him.

The fierce battle between the man and the beast continued, and Shen Yun performed the first four moves of "Seven Styles of Qiankun" back and forth. His figure was as fast as lightning, and his sword was as powerful as the wind. The light of "Qianyuan Dawn" was dazzling, the sword energy of "Kunling Turning" was treacherous and changeable, the figure of "Qiankun Moving" was illusory, and the heat of "Qianyang Fiery Fire" was rolling. He used every move to the fullest, and fought a desperate battle with the Devouring Wave Beast.

Some people may ask, why didn't he use the fifth move?

This is a good question, because Shen Yun has only mastered the first four moves. Despite this, he still showed extraordinary strength and tenacious fighting spirit in this thrilling battle with his profound understanding and superb application of these four moves.

The Wave Devourer also sensed Shen Yun's tenacity, and it attacked more and more frantically, trying to break through Shen Yun's defense. But Shen Yun constantly adjusted his rhythm and tactics in each attack, and cleverly resolved the fierce offensive of the Wave Devourer.

Sweat soaked Shen Yun's clothes and the pain from the wound stimulated his nerves, but he held the sword tighter and his moves became more fierce.

After the man and the beast exchanged one move again, they each retreated. The powerful impact made their bodies somewhat unstable. As Shen Yun retreated, his footsteps created ripples on the water surface. With each step, the water beneath his feet bloomed like a lotus and quickly dissipated. The Wave Devouring Beast violently churned in the water, creating huge waves. The waves were like a white giant beast, pouncing around with its fangs and claws bared. Neither side could do anything to the other, and both consumed a lot of physical and spiritual energy in this fierce collision.

The Wave Devourer roared at Shen Yun, and the sound seemed to penetrate the sky, shaking the surrounding river water violently. The sound waves spread on the water surface, forming circles of ripples visible to the naked eye. The breath from its bloody mouth turned into a gust of wind, blowing Shen Yun's clothes. Then, its huge body turned around, bringing up a piece of turbid muddy water, and instantly dived into the water, without any movement.

Seeing the Wave Devourer hiding in the water, Shen Yun vigilantly grasped the Jinghong Sword in his hand, the sword flashing with a cold light, reflecting his alert face. Veins on his forehead bulged, sweat slid down his cheeks, dripped into the water, and disappeared in an instant. His eyes were like torches, staring at the water surface, not daring to relax at all, and his breathing became rapid. The heavy breathing sounded particularly clear in this silent atmosphere, and the heartbeat sounded like a war drum beating in his chest.

But after waiting for a long time, the attack of the Wave Devouring Beast did not come. Shen Yun did not dare to relax his vigilance. He manipulated the Jinghong Sword to transform it into ten again. Ten shining sword shadows instantly appeared around him. Driven by his thoughts, the ten swords stabbed into the water below like meteors, attacking indiscriminately. The swords entered the water, stirring up huge water columns. The water columns soared into the sky and then fell heavily. The river water was stirred up and turned upside down, forming huge whirlpools. The whirlpools spun wildly, swallowing everything around them. Crushed water plants and fish and shrimps floated on the water.

After the attack, there was still no movement in the water. Shen Yun frowned, his doubts growing deeper and deeper, his eyes revealing anxiety and uneasiness. He did not dare to act rashly, and still maintained a defensive posture, leaning forward slightly, his muscles tense, like a fully drawn bowstring, ready to respond to possible attacks at any time. After a while, there was still no movement, and Shen Yun realized that the evil beast, the Wave Devourer, had actually escaped.

He let out a long sigh, his tense body gradually relaxed, and his shoulders drooped. But there was still a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.

Looking at the undulating water surface, Shen Yun thought that if he let the Wave Devourer escape this time, it would definitely cause trouble in the future, but he should still be in this area of ​​water, and he would definitely meet it again in the future. The next time he meets it, he will definitely defeat it thoroughly.

Shen Yun flashed back to the shore. Lin Ruyi hurried forward to show concern, her eyebrows furrowed, her eyes full of worry: "Shen Yun, are you okay? Are you seriously injured?"

Shen Yun shook his head slightly, panting and said, "I'm fine, but it's a pity that the Wave Devouring Beast escaped."

Lin Ruyi sighed softly and reached out to wipe the sweat off Shen Yun's forehead: "You are already very powerful, to be able to fight with that ferocious monster to such an extent. After all, it is a half-step third-level monster. An ordinary Foundation Establishment Realm expert would probably not be able to survive more than three moves in front of it."

Shen Yun looked at Lin Ruyi with a firm gaze: "This evil beast is very cunning, I will not let it escape next time."

Lin Ruyi nodded, trust in her beautiful eyes: "I believe you, but right now it is more important to heal your injuries first."
