The system asked me, a weak woman, to challenge a saint

Things did not develop as Chen Subaru expected. Five hundred households followed closely and chased towards the military town of Puyang County. The Qianhu who were originally waiting and watching saw that the five Hundreds were pursuing a little far away, so they followed up. At the same time, they also mobilized the other five Hundreds who stayed behind, as well as thousands of puppets, to press towards the military town.

Faced with this situation, Chen Subaru was not surprised. He knew very well that the puppet army could not sit back and watch the Puyang County military town on his flank and turn a deaf ear. Chen Subaru originally expected that the other party might send one thousand to three thousand people to conduct a diversionary attack on the military town of Puyang County.

Although this was a diversionary attack, they certainly wouldn't mind taking the opportunity to destroy the military town in one fell swoop.

Chen Subaru had not yet planned to reveal any of his cards, so when he lured five hundred households to the Puyang County trap area, he suddenly changed direction.

It was a bit difficult for the five hundred households to chase Chen Subaru. They were secretly shocked when they saw Chen Subaru suddenly speeding up and changing direction. It was obvious that the monk they were chasing was hiding.

At the moment when they hesitated, Xue'er, who was hiding her aura, suddenly appeared in front of a puppet Baihu. With the blessing of Chen Subaru's spiritual power, the Liangyi Sky Ice Sword faintly penetrated the puppet's head. With one tremor, his upper body spirit body and Nascent Soul were all crushed to pieces.

The remaining four hundred households subconsciously stopped the pursuit and used defensive weapons to defend themselves. Then they looked at the half of the corpse falling to the ground and analyzed what happened.

Naturally, Chen Subaru would not give them time to analyze. Four powerful superimposed consciousnesses immediately locked onto the four people, which gave the four hundred households the illusion of being ambushed.

While being completely suppressed by their spiritual consciousness, and at the same time having to guard against the secret ambush, the movements of the four hundred households immediately became uncoordinated. Serious loopholes appeared in their defenses. The defense formations that originally supported each other were disrupted due to concerns about their own safety. It became useless. With the speed of Chen Subaru and Xue'er, they had no time to support their companions.

Chen Subaru looked at the four of them indifferently and said in a contemptuous tone: "Do you look down on sword cultivators?"

Before the sound reached the ears of the four people, Chen Subaru had already rushed in front of one person and struck down with his sword. The man had no time to dodge and could only use his spiritual power to control the defensive magic weapon to catch Chen Subaru's sword.

However, Chen Subaru's target was not him at all. The seemingly powerful and heavy sword quietly changed its direction under his full defense. Chen Subaru just dropped his right hand empty-handed. The spiritual power in his hand gathered, and a small black sword came from him. Condensed in his hand, he shot flatly at the hundred households above the key defense point.

At this time, the Liangyi Tianbing Sword nimbly changed direction from Chen Subaru's hand and stabbed another Baihu who came to support him. He temporarily replaced the defensive magic weapon with a magic sword and prepared to sneak attack Chen Subaru who was attacking his companion with all his strength. .

However, the momentary delay when he temporarily changed the magic weapon gave Xueer an opportunity. At the same time that the sword-wielding Baihu planned to sneak attack Chen Subaru from the side, the Liangyi Tianbing Sword also came to the side of his head.

The Liangyi Tianbing Sword, which shattered the head of Baihu holding the sword, continued to exert its power, drawing an arc around Chen Subaru and swiping back a Baihu who was supporting him on the other side.

Under the continuous attacks of Chen Subaru's Xuanbing Sword, Baihu, who diverted half of his spiritual power from above to the front, struggled to maintain the balance of offense and defense.

At this time, the Liangyi Heavenly Ice Sword that circled around came to Chen Subaru's left hand side. Chen Subaru suddenly stopped attacking with the Xuanbing Sword with his right hand, poured spiritual power into the Liangyi Heavenly Ice Sword, and thrust it straight from the side. Defend Baihu's waist.

Since the spiritual power of the defensive magic weapon was concentrated on the front, the side defenses could not withstand the thrust of the Liangyi Tianbing Sword. This sword pierced the waist of the hundred households.

Chen Subaru stepped forward and stepped on the defensive magic weapon that could no longer maintain his spiritual power. With the shock of spiritual power, the defense of the magic weapon collapsed. Chen Subaru rushed to Baihu's side and grabbed the Liangyi Tianbing Sword with his right hand. With the handle, he swung forward with force, and the hundred households were immediately cut into two pieces. When the Yuanying in his upper half of the spirit body had just separated from the spirit body and was about to escape, Chen Subaru stabbed the sword backwards, and the Yuanying He happened to be stabbed and killed.

Chen Subaru reversed his right hand, holding the sword from backhand to forehand. He stepped on his right foot in the air, and his whole body surged with spiritual power, and he rushed forward quickly.

Opposite, a Baihu man holding a knife in both hands was rushing towards Chen Subaru with all his strength. Everything happened so fast before him that he had no time to come up with a complete countermeasure.

Although the external performances of high-level sword cultivators and great sword masters are similar, monks who have cultivated to the Nascent Soul realm can detect the differences between the two.

The great swordsman is good at controlling magic weapons. Whether it is a set of magic weapons or a single top-quality magic weapon, he can perfectly combine his own spiritual power with the magic weapon, giving his opponent the illusion that the sword and man are one.

However, an illusion is an illusion after all. The essential difference between a great swordsman and a swordsman lies in the person who uses the magic weapon. They have fundamental differences in the fundamental concepts of using the magic weapon.

The great swordsman is committed to exploring the limits of the sword in his hand. The limit of the magic weapon is the limit of the great swordsman. In contrast, a sword cultivator takes the use of a sword to the extreme. Even without a sword in his hand, a sword cultivator can still stand proudly in front of any opponent.

On the path of cultivation, the existence of various weapon spirits makes the upper limit of the growth of magic weapons extremely high, and it is difficult to distinguish the advantages and disadvantages between great sword masters and sword cultivators.

However, when facing a real sword cultivator, one cannot evaluate combat power based on cultivation alone. The biggest bottleneck why it is difficult to achieve great success in sword cultivation is that swordsmanship and cultivation are two completely different training systems that often restrict each other.

For example, some swordsmen have attained the level of sword-slaying Nascent Soul, but their cultivation level only remains at the Qi Gathering realm. Although he was confident of killing his opponent, he was unable to get close to his opponent due to lack of strength. Unless the Nascent Soul cultivator takes the initiative to bring his neck forward for him to cut, it will be difficult for him to perform sword skills. Even in this case, he still needs to control the spirit body to cater to him to avoid accidental injury.

It is rare for a monk to have a cultivation level much higher than his kendo attainment, as this shows that the monk has no talent in kendo. In this case, switching to another genre may be a better option.

Although a Qi Gathering Realm monk looks funny when facing a Nascent Soul cultivator, he is extremely intimidating when facing a Qi Gathering Realm or Concentrating Spirit Realm monk.

Therefore, when Baihu, who was holding a knife with both hands, chose to confront Chen Subaru in close combat at the critical moment, his fate seemed to have been doomed.

Chen Subaru has the strength to compete head-on with the monks who transform themselves into gods. Perhaps his true swordsmanship is enough to kill Sanxian with a sword, but his cultivation is not yet able to support him in accomplishing such a feat.

However, facing the monks at the early stage of Nascent Soul Realm, Chen Subaru could easily deal with them. He didn't even need to use the small tricks he used to defeat the other three hundred households before.

Baihu, who had been forced back by Xue'er before, adjusted his posture and quickly searched for countermeasures in his mind. They are obviously at a disadvantage in close combat, so perhaps using long-range magic attacks is the best strategy. But the problem is, whether they can hold Chen Subaru in place with their strength is still a headache.

At the moment when he was thinking hard about countermeasures, the winner was decided in a head-on fight not far away, and he witnessed an extremely shocking scene.
