From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 393 - 274 Wind Dragon Breathless Slash

Dawn.

At the foot of the Storm Cliff, in the Dragon Sleep Stone Forest.

Terres stood with closed eyes and arms crossed in front of the Stone Forest, motionless as if he were a statue.

A Mechanical Tiger flew through the sky, gradually landing beside the Stone Forest.

Lu Heng dismounted from the Mechanical Tiger and stood quietly beside Terres, not daring to interrupt him.

The night before, the three-person team had been clearing Abyss Demons in the fog of the Desolate Swamp, enduring the whole night, their bodies now saturated with the scent of the demons and the musty smell of the swamp.

After standing quietly for over ten minutes, Terres still had not moved, as if he were asleep.

Just when Lu Heng was considering whether to speak, Terres suddenly moved.

He dashed forward, conjuring a gust of wind, and sprinted into the Stone Forest.

Clang!

He rode the wind, drawing his sword in one swift motion, the sword edge passing through and multiplying the wind pressure countless times, creating a Wind Dragon that surged into the Stone Forest.

The Wind Dragon howled through the Stone Forest, furiously whipping against the stone pillars.

The fierce wind swept out, blowing the surrounding trees and sand into the air and twirling them toward the sky.

As the three were in awe of the Wind Dragon conjured by that one slash, something even more astonishing happened.

Dozens of stone pillars were lifted from the ground by the Wind Dragon, pulling them into the sky.

Upon seeing this scene, Lu Heng couldn’t help but widen his eyes, his face showing shock.

Because the pillars were two meters in diameter, five meters high, and weighed over thirty tons.

Stone pillars weighing thirty tons were actually being swept into the sky by the Wind Dragon—the power of this slash was terrifying.

Furthermore, the Wind Dragon conjured by Terres had lifted not just one stone pillar but a dozen.

What level of combat power was this?

It was almost unimaginable.

If it were just about cutting stone pillars, the difficulty would not be great.

With just an ordinary Rift Slash, Lu Heng could cut a stone pillar, but to slash in such a way that incited a Wind Dragon to lift the pillars into the sky was many times more difficult.

This Elf powerhouse, truly worthy of being a Quel’dorei Sword Saint, had enough power in one sword strike to level armies and crumble fortresses.

Seeing the power of this slash, Lu Heng was exceedingly excited.

Because before coming here, he had heard that this sword skill was one of the "Wind Dragon Breathless Slash," the three ultimate techniques of the Elf Sword Saint Terence.

He hadn’t expected to witness it with his own eyes so soon.

Terres sheathed his sword, the stone pillars swept into the sky by the Wind Dragon crashing down, some embedding in the soil, others shattering into dozens of pieces, their impacts making the ground tremble several times.

Terres exhaled and turned to look at Lu Heng, eyed him twice, then started walking up the mountain.

Lu Heng hurriedly spoke up, "Can I learn that technique?"

Terres glanced at Lu Heng sideways and replied, "Haven’t I already shown it to you?"

Lu Heng paused, then asked, "Just once?"

Suddenly, a sharp, sword-like glare pierced from Terres’ eyes straight into Lu Heng’s.

Lu Heng felt a sting in his eyes and quickly closed them, covering his eyes with his right hand.

The essence of the "Wind Dragon Breathless Slash" began to replay rapidly at the bottom of his eyes, repeating over and over as if it were being etched into his eyes, his mind, and into his sword.

Terres continued up the mountain, leaving behind a remark, "This sword skill is called the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash. When you can slice the wind pressure to lift a stone pillar, you’ll have mastered it."

Lu Heng still covered his eyes, digesting the essence of the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash.

Nearby, Su Muyu’s eyes widened and then turned to look at the Stone Forest, filled with bewildered glances.

Each of the stone pillars there weighed more than thirty tons. To slice with a sword to summon a Wind Dragon, and then for that dragon’s wind pressure to lift a thirty-ton stone pillar into the sky...

The difficulty was unimaginable.

And moreover, Terres had just demonstrated it once, essentially deeming that the teaching was complete.

To them, they really had witnessed it only once.

For Lu Heng, during that glance shared with Terres, the essence of the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash replayed countless times in his eyes.

At this moment, Lu Heng was digesting the essence of the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash, which was extraordinarily exhausting, even more so than hunting demons all night.

Exhaling,

Lu Heng let out a breath, sat down leaning against a stone pillar, closed his eyes, resting while digesting the essence of the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash.

Lin Zeyu was about to speak when Su Muyu quickly interrupted him, noticing that Lu Heng’s breathing had gradually stabilized, and he had fallen asleep.

Hunting demons all night, followed by receiving the sword technique essence from the Elf Sword Saint Terence, Lu Heng was truly tired, particularly mentally exhausted, leading him truly to fall asleep.

However, in his sleep, the wind pressure from the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash continued to howl in his dreams.

Su Muyu used Source Energy to condense a Life Tree Vine seed and knelt to bury it in the soil.

The Life Tree Vine grew from the ground and wove into a windproof and rainproof vine hut around Lu Heng.

"Don’t disturb him, let him sleep for a while. I need a nap too," Su Muyu whispered to Lin Zeyu, then leaned against the vine hut and started to doze off.

Lin Zeyu looked around, deciding to go into the woods to see if he could find something to eat.

As this expedition to the Abyss Battlefield was scheduled to last for 30 days, the food and water they had brought would suffice for sustenance, but not for satiety—additional measures would be necessary.

...

He slept until noon.

When Lu Heng woke up, he found himself in a beautifully woven vine hut, no doubt crafted from the Life Tree Vine.

"You’re awake, have something to eat first," Su Muyu served a bowl of meat soup from the pot and placed it on a low table made of Life Tree Vine.
