"The fifth floor?"

On the stone stairs, Cang Yun watched the black-clothed youth's disappearing back and was slightly startled. After which, he raised his head, as the fighting spirit in his eyes once again surged.

The current him thirsted to fight!

Without any hesitation, Cang Yun climbed up the stone stairs. At the end of the stairs, the thick mist also dissipated with a rumble. At the end of the stairs, a transmission light screen was emitting a dazzling light.

Cang Yun leapt forward and walked in with large strides.

Weng! *

The next moment, the scene spun and appeared again. The azure cloud was still in a stone room.

However, it was different from the stone chamber on the first floor. This stone chamber was much larger than the previous one. It was about three thousand feet wide and looked like a huge square.

Cang Yun's eyes swept across the area before focusing on a stone staircase at the side. He then proceeded to walk up.

Suddenly, the black-robed youth appeared once again. He gazed at Cang Yun and smiled, "Welcome to the fifth floor of the Sword Tower!"

The fifth floor?

Cang Yun was stunned for a moment before reacting. The first layer's teleportation formation must have been teleported here by the black-robed youth.

Cang Yun seriously looked at the black-robed youth in front of him. The latter's cultivation did not increase in the slightest, but the current him had an indescribable temperament. Cang Yun was in a trance, and felt that the black-clothed youth himself was a sword.

And this aura, gave Cang Yun a sense of extreme danger!

"Let's fight!" Cang Yun's gaze became serious, an unprecedented look of concentration on his face. However, the fighting spirit in his heart was surging, and his unyielding heart of martial arts was burning. The greater the pressure, the stronger his unyielding will!

"As you wish." A light flashed in the youth's eyes as he slightly tilted his sword.

In the next moment, the black-clothed youth struck out with his sword. He did the same sword strike as before, upright and upright, without the slightest bit of gaudiness.

Cang Yun's eyes narrowed. It was precisely this seemingly ordinary sword strike. Ten days ago, he simply didn't have the strength to resist at all.

This sword strike contained the black-clothed youth's martial arts Concept. Although it wasn't much, it was not something that an ordinary person could resist. It was filled with an incomparably domineering aura.

"The me here can unleash a total of three sword strikes. This is the first sword attack!"

The black-clothed youth turned the tip of his sword and an incomparably sharp sword qi brazenly shot out!

This sword Qi was incomparably domineering. Wherever it passed, the air would emit ear-piercing tremors, as if it had submitted to the domineering aura of the sword as if it was an emperor.

Facing this sword strike, Cang Yun held his breath as he concentrated. The two bright suns shone faintly in his eyes, and in that instant, the sword move seemed to slow down.

Cang Yun did not attack, but suddenly, six soul imprints appeared in front of him!

Yes, a total of six soul imprints. After a long period of non-stop comprehension, Cang Yun's soul force had also unknowingly increased greatly. As a result, it formed a sixth soul imprint, as if it was natural to do so.

This was not strange at all. From Cang Yun's results, he was able to form five soul seals for the first time. His talent in cultivating the soul was even greater than his talent. With this progress, it wasn't strange at all.

"You're not going to use your sword, are you …?" As the black-clothed youth watched Cang Yun's movements, his eyes narrowed, but he did not pay too much attention to it. This was only his first sword strike, if Cang Yun were to use his ultimate move, then the rest of the battle would be meaningless.

The black-clothed youth also knew that Cang Yun must also have had the same thought.

Cang Yun remained silent. With a thought, the six soul imprints formed a circular barrier in the blink of an eye, blocking in front of him like a sturdy fortress.

Swoosh!

A cold light flashed before the sword qi shot out like a rainbow. In the blink of an eye, the black-robed youth's sword qi stabbed right into the barrier in front of Cang Yun.

BOOM!

The astral wind surged. The sword ray that was condensed to the limit exploded on the barrier. Countless energies were like sharp swords that shot in all directions, causing the entire stone room to rumble.

Countless small sword marks appeared on the surrounding stone wall. The barrier in front of Cang Yun was also trembling violently, as if there was an endless amount of pressure pressing down on him. The tyrannical aura forced Cang Yun to retreat.

If it was any other person, they would have already chosen to retreat to escape from the black-clothed youth's sword energy.

However, Cang Yun did not do so. He clenched his teeth and his spirit power surged out crazily, continuously pouring into the barrier in front of him. It was as if his feet were rooted to the ground, and he would not retreat even half a step!

Cang Yun knew that this was a contest of wills of Mandates. The black-robed youth's Mandate was incomparably tyrannical, and if he retreated, not only would he be unable to break free of the latter's sword might, it would also be like adding oil to the fire, causing the tyrannical sword aura to surge even more violently.

Fear was the best nourishment for being tyrannical. There was no arrogance in people. Those tyrannical people had absorbed the fear of countless others in their lives, so they could become tyrannical.

Cang Yun understood this, and was naturally unwilling to become someone's stepping stone. His martial will was unyielding, unyielding soul. It wasn't the slightest bit weaker than his domineering heart, and it was even stronger!

Wang Hou is like Xiang Ning? With an unyielding soul, even the emperor dared to pull Wang Lin down. The greater the pressure, the stronger the unyielding soul would become!

So at this moment, not only did Cang Yun not have any thoughts of retreating, he even wanted to use the pressure of the black-clothed youth's overbearing sword force to sharpen his unyielding soul.

After the treasured sword had been trained, the plum blossom fragrance came from the bitter cold. Cang Yun wanted to use this method to strengthen his unyielding soul. That way, his heart of martial arts would be purer, and his future path would be even more distant.

"Hm?" "So this is the true nature of martial arts …"

The black-clothed youth saw through Cang Yun's intentions. His deep eyes flashed for a moment as he considered whether he should withdraw his sword energy.

Every martial artist had their own pride. No one was willing to become a stepping stone for others to succeed, and the black-clothed youth was no exception. Cang Yun's method was obviously to use him as a stepping stone, causing the black-clothed youth to hesitate.

However, after pondering for a long time, the black-clothed youth finally did not make a choice.

A choice without a choice was the greatest favor to Cang Yun at this moment!

Cang Yun was completely focused on resisting the black-clothed youth's tyrannical sword qi. Under the pressure of the latter, his unyielding will continued to grow stronger, like a spark about to ignite.

After a long while, the boy in black faded away, and Cang Yun's sunken mind gradually recovered, along with his growing unyielding will!

"Ah …!"

Suddenly, Cang Yun let out a loud shout. The sound was like a thunderclap that tore through the clouds, and it abruptly exploded within the stone chamber!

And following his whistle, the last bit of the black-clothed youth's sword energy suddenly collapsed!
