He didn't pause for even a moment, his gaze instantly sharpening.
Jin An took a deep breath, adjusted his stance, and spun his body rapidly, using the momentum to launch another fierce attack.
This time, his sword's angle became even more cunning, and the speed suddenly increased, the blade's light creating a violent storm that assaulted the Five Elders' defenses.
However, the Five Elders reacted extremely quickly.
"Not bad, but still not enough..."
His figure flickered slightly, disappearing from the spot as if turning into a gust of wind.
"咻~"
Jin An's eyes twitched, he quickly turned around, relying on his extraordinary agility, reacted, and then raised his sword to meet the attack.
The Five Elders had already appeared behind him, his hands gathering a chilling aura, and he unhesitatingly attacked Jin An's back.
The air vibrated violently at the moment of his attack, and the surrounding space seemed to collapse in an instant, rushing towards Jin An with the power to destroy everything.
Jin An felt instantly alert, and his body almost instinctively turned, quickly avoiding the blow.
He felt the powerful force behind him brush past his skin, as if even the air had been shattered.
However, Jin An's heart did not relax, because he knew this was not the end.
He instantly counterattacked again, his blade sweeping out, slashing directly at the Five Elders' figure with infinite momentum.
However, the Five Elders reacted even faster, and at the moment the blade was about to make contact, he suddenly bounced up and jumped up, easily avoiding this deadly blow.
Jin An couldn't help but sink into thought again.
He didn't really want to hurt the Five Elders, but wanted to test his limits.
With each contact, Jin An was trying to deduce the opponent's strength and attack method through subtle reactions.
Now, he could clearly feel that the strength of this group of Five Elders should not be underestimated.
"This power is completely different from the previous Five Elders' brute-force attacks."
Jin An frowned, and gradually made a judgment in his heart.
The previous Five Elders relied more on suppressing with massive power, while this new batch of Five Elders not only had powerful attack power, but also had extraordinary reaction speed and control, with a balance of offense and defense, making Jin An's attacks even difficult to deal with.
He slowed down slightly, observing every reaction of the Five Elders. At this moment, he noticed that the Five Elders' attacks were not just simply fighting him, but more like probing Jin An's defense and flaws in a tentative way.
"Sure enough, every step on the battlefield must be cautious."
Jin An was secretly alert, and his eyes became sharper.
The duel between the two seemed to have entered a new level.
Jin An understood that this was not just a simple hand-to-hand combat, but more of a contest of wisdom and strength.
Faced with this group of elite Five Elders, he had to be careful, and any negligence could become an opportunity for them to counterattack.
However, the Five Elders didn't give Jin An too much time to breathe.
His figure disappeared again like the wind, and almost instantly, he appeared on the other side of Jin An.
His hands waved out, and waves of energy surged towards Jin An like rapids, as if to devour him whole.
Jin An instantly realized that the Five Elders had fully launched the attack, and the force was far greater than before.
Everything in front of him became more and more complicated, and every action became crucial.
He gritted his teeth, gathered all his strength, and swung his long sword again. This time, a sharper light burst out from the blade than before, and the blade instantly tore through the air, charging forward with a powerful air wave.
This sword was not only to defeat the opponent, but also to break through the powerful aura surrounding him.
"As long as I break through this line of defense, victory is at hand!"
Jin An cried out in his heart, the determination in his eyes becoming more and more intense.
Jin An's long sword drew a brilliant arc in the air, and the violent power carried by the blade was like lightning tearing through the air, pointing directly at the Five Elders' defense core.
However, just as he was about to strike with all his strength, a cold sneer suddenly came from his ear—
"Want to break through our defense? Wishful thinking."
This voice was low and cold, like a sharp blade piercing directly into the depths of Jin An's heart.
His brow furrowed slightly, and the movement of the long sword did not stop at all, but a trace of surprise flashed in his heart.
He knew that he had never revealed any extra emotions, but the other party seemed to be able to see through his mind and see his intentions clearly.
The Five Elders stood in the distance, with a mocking sneer on his face.
His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, staring at Jin An, and the surrounding air twisted and churned because of his existence, as if everything about him was wrapped in an invisible field.
The moment Jin An's blade approached him, it seemed to be blocked by a huge invisible barrier. Although the sword energy was still violent, it was still unable to tear through that solid defense.
The Five Elders raised his chin, with condescending arrogance, and spoke again:
"Do you think you can shake our power with just a sword? Too naive."
Jin An did not respond, his eyes were as sharp as a blade, his hands were holding the sword, and the fighting spirit in his eyes became more and more intense.
He never underestimated any enemy, especially this group of new Five Elders whose strength was unfathomable.
But the other party's words were clearly a provocation.
Jin An took a deep breath, the blade in his hand raised slightly, and the aura gathered even more intensely.
However, at this moment, another Five Elders slowly stepped out.
His steps were steady, and every step carried an undeniable pressure, as if the entire earth was trembling because of his appearance.
There was a sinister smile on his face, and his voice was as low as if it came from the abyss:
"Stay here forever, it wouldn't be bad to add some fertilizer to our flowers and plants."
His tone was contemptuous, even a little cynical, as if Jin An's existence was not worth mentioning to him at all.
As soon as he finished speaking, he began to condense a dark red energy light in his hand. The light was like a burning flame, but with a corrosive aura. The surrounding air became hot and oppressive at this moment.
Jin An's eyes narrowed slightly, and he could clearly feel the destructive power contained in that energy.
This was not an ordinary attack, but a deadly force that directly eroded the body and spirit.
He gripped the long sword in his hand, leaned his body back slightly, and then quickly adjusted his posture, with no wavering in his eyes.
The Five Elders looked at Jin An coldly, and the energy light in his hand gradually took shape.
With a gentle wave of his hands, the dark red beam of light wrapped around the air like a chain, and suddenly swept towards Jin An.
This attack carried an irresistible sense of oppression, as if it wanted to devour the entire battlefield.
"Looks like you're planning to come at me together."
Jin An raised his head slightly, with a sneer in his tone.
His voice was not loud, but it carried an undeniable majesty,
"Alright, I want to see how capable you really are."
As soon as he finished speaking, the long sword in Jin An's hand suddenly vibrated, and the aura on the blade instantly erupted, as if a pillar of light soaring into the sky shot straight up.
The sword energy was like a dragon, instantly tearing the air and colliding head-on with the dark red energy beam.
In the center of the battlefield, the huge shock wave swept around like a storm, the stones on the ground were blasted into fragments and splashed into the air, and everyone who approached was shaken back by the aftermath of this force.
Another Five Elders looked at this scene, the corner of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a cold smile:
"Jin An, you are indeed powerful, but don't forget, this is Mariejois, our home field."
After saying that, his figure suddenly flashed, and he disappeared directly in place.
In the next instant, he had already appeared on Jin An's side, and the long sword in his hand suddenly swung out, sweeping across with a sharp sword energy.
The sword energy was extremely sharp, and it almost cut through the air in an instant, heading straight for Jin An's shoulder.
Jin An turned around suddenly, and the long sword in his hand accurately blocked the sword.
At the moment when the swords collided, sparks splashed, accompanied by a deafening metallic crash.
A huge force came from the blade, shaking Jin An's arm for a while, but he stood firmly in place, without taking a step back.
