Chapter 0083
Wu Yu followed the five of them into the fourth level of the Dao Querying Pagoda . The five turned back at the center and spread out, surrounding Wu Yu .
He looked at them . Three men and two women . All were core disciples at the third tier of the Qi Condensation Realm . Each of their abilities were in no way inferior to Heavenly Immortal Hao Tian's .
The spiritual sources at their Chest Meridians, Heaven's Hall Meridians, and Heaven's Gate Meridians had already been activated . They had cultivated the Qi Condensation Spiritual Art and had fairly vigorous spiritual power .
This class of disciple was considered elite disciples within the whole Heavenly Sword Sect . In a few decades, they would be the solid cornerstones of the Heavenly Sword Sect .
However, their attitude towards Wu Yu was hostile . As if there was resentment and jealousy in their bones .
The guy in the lead was built like a wall . He was a crane in a flock of chickens . He wore a robe of white gold, and his firm muscles filled the robe well . In his hand he wielded a huge, golden sword that drew the eye . The huge sword's tip rested on the ground . The blade was four feet long and as wide as the palm of one's hand . It sparkled with golden light and looked extremely intimidating!
"Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth . "
Wu Yu's gaze swept out over them . Just from their auras, weaponry, and dress, he could guess their fortes .
It was believed that there were five affinities in nature, and humans followed this as well . Take Wu Yu as an example . Within the five affinities, his metal and fire were outstanding, while his water affinity was weak . That resulted in his intense and straightforward character . And the sturdily built man opposite him was much the same .
There were other elements that came out of the five affinities, such as fog, wind, or lightning . Some were even completely discrete from the five affinities . It was almost inconceivable .
The five of them being grouped together could be no coincidence . They must have had some sort of plan!
The first woman was tall and thin . She held a wooden sword that was definitely an immortal treasure .
The delicate woman held a sword that flowed like water and could change its shape .
Then there were two guys . One was as fat as a mountain, and he looked even heavier than the leader . The other was extremely gaunt . His long hair was wispy, like a flame burning .
None of them spoke a word . They stood at the positions of the five affinities, with Wu Yu surrounded in the center . From the looks in their eyes, they were all thinking of bullying Wu Yu .
"Wu Yu, we give you one last chance to reconsider . The five of us have the Five Affinities Sword Formation, which has even beaten those of the fourth tier of the Qi Condensation Realm! It's difficult even for those of the fourth tier to best us . And given your capabilities and status, if we accidentally injure you, we will be reprimanded by the elders . If you're frightened, then scram right now," the leader said in a stern voice .
"Very well!"
They were the reason why Wu Yu had come today!
In order to obtain the best dao technique, one would have to face such a caliber of challenge . Wu Yu could feel their power . To a former battle fanatic like himself, this was exactly the challenge he was hoping for!
The opponents in the previous three levels were not even worthy to take a blow from him .
Ping!
The dark gold Demon Subduing Staff was planted on the ground, sending flames up .
The Heavenly Sword Sect disciples were often affiliated to dao techniques of the sword, and these five were no exception .
"Hmph!"
They laughed coldly .
"Brothers and sisters, let us test the capabilities of the Sect Leader's personal disciple!"
"I hope you do not shame the Sect Leader . "
"Perhaps we might become the disciples of the Sect Leader as well . "
As they spoke, their longswords were already pointing at Wu Yu .
"They seem to have some sort of coordinated attack . I definitely cannot allow them to surround me . "
Wu Yu had fought military battles before and was familiar with the utility of battle formations . Once he fell into their design, he would be like a turtle in a jar .
This was a fight where the odds were against his favor!
"Break!"
Therefore, before his opponents made their move, he moved first . The Demon Subduing Staff in his hand sketched a golden trace in the air . It exploded with a ringing sound!
"Heaven-Defying Dragon Slayer!"
Because he had no dao techniques, he could only use a supreme-grade martial art . The Heaven-Defying Dragon Slayer pierced through like a sword . It had only one target: the swordswoman whose affinity was wood .
They called themselves the Five Affinities Fencers . In that case, he would send his greetings to the Fencer of Wood!
In single combat, none of them were Wu Yu's match .
Just as Wu Yu moved, the burly Fencer of Gold cried out, "Don't let him get away!" His huge, golden sword cleaved down, and it was like a mountain falling down . And the Fencer of Wood executed some footwork . All five moved at the same time, and the Five Affinities Sword Formation immediately sprung into action . All five had been trained as a cohesive body for many years, and Wu Yu's attack on the Fencer of Wood disappeared as though it had sunk in a swamp .
"Attack!"
All five speedily whirled around Wu Yu, switching positions . The five immortal treasure swords were like five demon snakes that lunged for Wu Yu at the same time, trying to take a bite out of him .
"So this is a personal disciple of the Sect Leader? He's nothing much!"
Despite Wu Yu's ferocious defense, he had still sustained a score of deep cuts after a fierce clash . And the Fencer of Water laughed strangely .
"Not even a tenth of Big Brother . " The Fencer of Fire laughed cruelly .
Wu Yu's face was solemn . He thought as he defended, "They have trained this Five Affinities Sword Formation for many years to make it a cohesive unit . With the power of all five, they are fairly equal to someone at the fourth tier of the Qi Condensation Realm . Very impressive . . . . "
He was not that familiar with sword formations . Actually, they were one of the subtypes of spirit design, belonging under the Offensive Spirit Design . But the real Offensive Spirit Design was naturally all-powerful, whereas the Five Affinities Sword Formation that they employed had been simplified many times over . It was a pale imitation .
Of course, just the form alone was difficult enough to deal with .
The spirit design was still far from Wu Yu . He did not dare to dwell on it for long . Now, all he could do was focus on reaching for a dao technique that would truly be his own!
