Three avatars.
Each was holding a sharp sword in their hand.
The swords aid at Xu Nian ca slashing towards him, each wielding imnse might.
Xu Nian swept the area with his Spiritual Sense.
He discovered that all three avatars were corporeal.
Which ant that, all three attacks could indeed harm him.
"Interesting, to think there's such a powerful secret technique."
Xu Nian chuckled lightly.
He imdiately produced a sharp sword in his hand.
If Xia Zhenglei were here, he would certainly recognize that the sword in Xu Nian's hand was his Immortal Sword.
That's right, after slaying Xia Zhenglei in the Demon Emperor's Tomb, he took this Immortal Sword for himself.
After all, it was an Immortal Artifact—how could Xu Nian possibly discard it?
Now that the Immortal Sword was unsheathed, a terrifying Sword Qi suddenly burst forth from Xu Nian's body.
"Hum!"
Xu Nian turned the edge of his sword.
Instantly, two streams of Azure Dragon Sword Qi surged out from the edge of his sword, transforming into two Azure Dragons and charging at the three Dark Ancestors.
"Roar!"
The Azure Dragon Sword Qi roared, sweeping across all directions.
All three Dark Ancestors were pushed back by Xu Nian's sword strike.
"Clang clang clang!"
A series of clashing Sword Qi sounds echoed in quick succession.
The Sword Qi was chilling, and the Elder was forced to retreat.
The three avatars stood suspended in the air, watching intently.
As Xu Nian's Azure Dragon Sword Qi dissipated, he looked up at the three Elders in the sky with a trace of mockery in his eyes.
"Xu Nian, what do you think? How is my Avatar Technique? I advise you to surrender and avoid unnecessary pain," the Elder said with a cold snort.
His Dark Triple Clone Technique could create two avatars with the sa strength as himself for a limited ti.
This effectively tripled his own strength.
Moreover, with the avatars' seamless cooperation, their attack power was amplified even further.
He did not know how many Battle King Level fighters had perished under this move.
He believed Xu Nian would be no exception.
However, upon hearing his words, Xu Nian scoffed.
"So this is your Avatar Technique? I don't see much power in it. To , it's just a matter of swinging a couple more swords," Xu Nian said disdainfully.
No hint of pressure could be felt from him due to the appearance of the Elder's avatars.
The Elder was fuming with rage at these words.
Xu Nian was simply too arrogant for words.
"Die for !"
The three avatars glared furiously, swinging their swords at Xu Nian simultaneously.
This ti, the Dark Ancestor did not hold back and directly unleashed his strongest sword move.
Every swing contained an extrely terrifying dark aura.
"Let show you my newly created sword move!"
A flicker of a sharp light passed through Xu Nian's eyes, and his grip on the Immortal Sword suddenly tightened.
He slashed out with his sword.
A flash of extre azure light passed in the blink of an eye.
So fast that all those around didn't have ti to react.
As if from the beginning to end, Xu Nian's body hadn't moved at all.
"How... how is this possible?"
However, the Dark Ancestor heading towards Xu Nian and his two avatars stood frozen in mid-air.
Following that, under the shocked gazes of the onlookers, their bodies along with the swords in their hands, were severed into two.
"Thud!"
Two avatars disappeared.
And the original body of the Dark Ancestor fell from the sky.
```
His body was severed at the waist, blood spraying wildly, lying on the ground unable to move an inch.
But the Dark Ancestor did not die imdiately.
He stared at Xu Nian, his eyes filled with intense disbelief.
Xu Nian's last sword had been too fast.
So fast that he hadn't even managed a response before he was killed.
He simply couldn't believe that such a sword strike was executed by soone at the Battle King Level.
"What... What sword technique is this?" the Dark Ancestor asked, full of unwillingness.
"I created it myself, it's my highest understanding of montum, nad One Slash Hair," Xu Nian replied with a smile.
The Dark Ancestor's complexion beca fixed, and then he completely expired.
Only at the mont of his death did he truly realize.
What was truly terrifying about the youth before him was not his cultivation.
But his realm of comprehension.
Such a sword strike had already taken the use of montum to its peak.
Only one step away from the Unity of Heaven and Man in the Saint Realm.
Xu Nian looked at the now lifeless Dark Ancestor, smiled, and sheathed the Immortal Sword in his hand.
This sword's power was indeed terrifying, firstly because his use of montum had reached the pinnacle.
Secondly, it was the might of this Immortal Sword.
Without this Immortal Sword, he feared his sharp sword wouldn't have been able to cleave the Dark Ancestor's Strange tal Sword.
The crowd around them was full of complex emotions, but even more so, they were excited.
Although they had not been able to see Xu Nian's final sword strike clearly,
it did not hinder their recognition of Xu Nian's strength.
Now, in the eyes of these students, Xu Nian's standing had reached a very high level.
"Xu Nian, are you alright?" Leng Yanran ca over and asked with concern.
"I'm fine, how about you?" Xu Nian asked with a smile.
Leng Yanran shook her head.
Looking at Xu Nian's resolute face,
she found that the current Xu Nian was much more mature than the one who had first left Qinglin Academy.
In the past, Xu Nian's gaze would flicker and shy away upon seeing her.
Now, however, he had the courage to et her eyes directly without a hint of timidity.
Considering this, it was evident that Xu Nian had been through a lot over the past year.
"Xu Nian, long ti no see!"
Chen Xifeng and Dugu Jingcheng also stepped forward at this mont to greet Xu Nian.
"Long ti no see!"
Xu Nian responded with a smile.
Seeing Chen Xifeng and Dugu Jingcheng made him very happy.
Since parting ways in the Commandery City, Xu Nian had suspected they had likely returned to Qinglin Academy upon not seeing them around.
Now, it turned out they had indeed beco teaching Elders in the Commandery City.
"Why did you suddenly co back?" Leng Yanran asked.
Xu Nian replied with a smile, "On my way here, I encountered people from the Desolate Hall and learned from them that they wanted to use you to deal with . Fearing for your safety, I hurried back here and, to my surprise, arrived just in ti."
Upon hearing this, Leng Yanran's heart skipped a beat, her innermost depths suddenly surging with emotion.
So Xu Nian had specifically rushed back for her.
Xu Nian, seeing the expression on Leng Yanran's face, couldn't help but rember the scene when he first appeared, and she was moved to tears.
He guessed he would never forget that mont in his life.
It was truly beautiful.
That beautiful image deeply pierced his nerves.
"The Desolate Hall definitely won't let this go; you have to be careful," Leng Yanran seed to realize she had been sowhat compromised and quickly changed the subject.
However, a cold glint flashed in Xu Nian's eyes, and he burst out with killing intent, "Hmph, even if you did not ntion it, I would rember. If they do not co, well and good; if they do, I will ensure they will never return. Using the people I care about to threaten is just asking for death!"
Hearing this, Leng Yanran was montarily stunned.
The people he cared about?
Was he referring to her?
Leng Yanran started to laugh, not seductive, but still devastatingly captivating.
