Chapter 246: Another Battle with the Wave Devourer

The Jinghong Sword vibrated "buzzing", and the sword in the simple scabbard made a crisp sound, as if it had life, and seemed to respond to Shen Yun in a unique way. At first, the sound was still low, and then it became more and more rapid, like the thunder of war drums on the battlefield, exciting people and making people's hearts surge. The light emitted by the sword body also became stronger and stronger with the sound, dazzling and shining, reflecting Shen Yun's angular face more and more resolute, as if blessed by the light of God.

The wind blew mercilessly, lifting Shen Yun's sleeves and making a rustling sound. However, he stood still like an unshakable mountain. He stood tall and straight, looking straight ahead with a firm gaze, exuding a powerful aura that could not be ignored.

Opposite him, the Wave Devourer felt the strong pressure from Shen Yun. This invisible pressure made the usually ferocious and fearless Wave Devourer feel fear. There was a hint of uneasiness and anxiety in its roar. But out of its instinctive ferocity, it still bared its teeth and claws, trying to intimidate the powerful opponent in front of it with its fierce appearance.

It bared its fangs, its eyes wide open, and the hot air from its mouth formed white mist. Its strong limbs kept digging at the ground, raising clouds of dust, as if it would pounce on Shen Yun at any time and make a final desperate struggle.

Shen Yun's eyes became colder and colder, like ice that had not melted for a thousand years. He tightly grasped the hilt of the Jinghong Sword, and his palms turned white due to the force. The spiritual power in his body was like a surging river, continuously pouring into the sword body. The light on the sword body flowed, as if it was joyfully welcoming the infusion of this powerful force.

At this moment, everything between heaven and earth seemed to be still. The wind stopped blowing, the clouds stopped floating, and the surrounding noise disappeared without a trace. Only Shen Yun and his Jinghong Sword remained in the silence, preparing for the upcoming life-and-death duel.

Shen Yun suddenly pulled the Jinghong Sword out of its scabbard, and a flash of cold light flashed by, just like lightning tearing through the night sky, dazzling people. Then, he flashed, as fast as a ghost, and instantly turned into a phantom and rushed towards the Devouring Wave Beast.

The Wave Devouring Beast was not to be outdone, it opened its bloody mouth, and a powerful column of water gushed out of its mouth, rushing straight towards Shen Yun. The water column was so powerful that the air made a "hissing" sound wherever it passed.

However, Shen Yun was not in a hurry, and there was no fear on his face. He only saw him use one hand to form a sword finger, and use his best "Sword Controlling Technique" to control the Jinghong Sword. In an instant, the Jinghong Sword turned into ten. He waved the sword in his hand, and a sharp sword energy whistled out, splitting the water column with an unstoppable force. In an instant, the water column turned into a sky full of water mist, reflecting colorful light under the sunlight, like a dream. But in this seemingly beautiful scene, there is endless danger and murderous intent hidden.

Taking advantage of the mist, Shen Yun quickly approached the Wave Devourer, and stabbed the Wave Devourer's abdomen with his sword. The Wave Devourer reacted very quickly, and its thick tail swept over with a whirring sound. Shen Yun tapped his toes lightly, jumped into the air, and easily dodged this fierce attack.

In the air, Shen Yun held the sword with both hands, infusing all his spiritual power, and the Jinghong Sword shone brightly. He shouted loudly and slashed at the head of the Wave Devouring Beast fiercely. The Wave Devouring Beast raised its head to attack, and the sharp horns on its head collided with the Jinghong Sword, making a sharp metal sound and sparks flying.

Shen Yun was knocked back dozens of steps by the recoil force, and after landing on one knee, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. The Wave Devouring Beast was also in trouble, and a tiny crack appeared on its sharp horn.

"You beast, I will take your life today!" Shen Yun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and rushed forward with the sword again.

The Wave Devourer roared, and the surrounding river water was stirred up by its power into huge waves, rolling towards Shen Yun. Shen Yun's eyes were determined, and his figure shuttled through the waves, constantly swinging his sword to slash at the Wave Devourer.

The man and the beast were engaged in an extremely fierce and bitter battle. The battle was thrilling and every confrontation was terrifying.

The fierce attacks of the Wave-Devouring Beast were as dense and fierce as a violent storm. Shen Yun, relying on his agility like a monkey and superb swordsmanship, dodged and fought back in the midst of danger.

Lin Ruyi was watching the battle nervously from the side, her hands tightly clenching the corners of her clothes, which were wrinkled. She didn't dare to take her eyes off Shen Yun for a moment. Her heart was in her throat, and she was ready to help at any time according to Shen Yun's instructions.

Shen Yun kept changing his moves, his figure was as erratic as a ghost, and he was trying hard to find the flaw of the Wave-Devouring Beast.

Sweat poured down his forehead, ran down his cheeks, and soaked his clothes, but his eyes remained firm and focused, revealing a determination not to back down. However, the Wave Devouring Beast was strong, and its defense was tight and flawless. For a moment, Shen Yun could not find the key weakness that could lead to victory.

As time slowly passed, Shen Yun saw that he was unable to defeat the Wave-Devouring Beast, so he made up his mind and decided to take a risk.

He activated the lightning seed hidden deep within his body, and in an instant, lightning spiritual power surged like a surging torrent, madly pouring into his body. Blue arcs of electricity jumped and flashed around his body, crackling, and his momentum suddenly increased, as if the god of thunder had descended to the earth.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Yun performed the Seven Styles of Qiankun.

The first move is "Qian Yuan Breaking Dawn".

The Jinghong Sword, which carried the power of thunder and lightning, instantly shone brightly, like an extremely agile dragon, carrying the majestic momentum of thunder and lightning, and stabbed at the Devouring Wave Beast with an unstoppable posture. Wherever the sword passed, the air seemed to be distorted by this powerful force, shining with a frightening light.

The Wave Devouring Beast sensed this powerful force and dodged sideways. At the same time, it opened its bloody mouth and sprayed out a powerful stream of water, trying to block Shen Yun's attack. However, the Jinghong Sword continued to move forward, directly splitting the water column and continuing to stab the Wave Devouring Beast. The Wave Devouring Beast quickly swung its thick front claws, colliding with the Jinghong Sword, making a dull loud noise.

Immediately afterwards, the second move "Kun Ling Hui Zhuan" was performed.

The sword shadows overlapped and intertwined with each other, like a dream scene, dazzling.

The complex sword shadows made the Wave-Devouring Beast instantly confused, unable to distinguish the true from the false, as if it was drawn into an illusory sword maze.

The Wave Devourer roared angrily, and powerful waves surged around its body, trying to disperse the sword shadows. But the sword shadows were like a thorn in its flesh, tightly surrounding it and constantly leaving shallow scars on its body.

The third move is “Shifting the Universe”. The powerful sword force is accompanied by the roar of thunder and lightning, like a flash of lightning that cuts through the darkness.

Shen Yun's figure and the sword shadow were perfectly integrated. He was as fast as a ghost, changing direction in an instant, and striking forward with the might of splitting mountains and cracking rocks. The fierce momentum seemed to completely crush all obstacles in front of him. The Wave Devouring Beast kept twisting its body, trying to keep up with Shen Yun's speed, but its movements seemed clumsy and slow under this extremely fast attack.

Despite this, the Wave-Devouring Beast still managed to withstand some of the attacks with its tough skin and flesh.

But the Wave-Devouring Beast was also very strong. Although it was beaten a little bit by these three moves, with wounds of various sizes all over its body and blood constantly oozing out, it still did not reveal any fatal flaws. Instead, it fought back even more fiercely.
