BOOM—
Above Luo ng’s head, his Profound Tier Ninth Grade Martial Soul, the Fiery Demon Blade, hung in the air like a blazing sun in full glory.
Streaks of fla, like writhing Fire Dragons, billowed out from it, heating the surrounding air.
Luo ng released his grip on the Tiger Demon Mountain-breaking Saber.
The Advanced Profound Tier Profound Weapon hovered before him as he slowly spread his arms to his sides like a cross.
Sparks fell from the Fiery Demon Blade, landing on his palms.
They crawled up his arms!
Luo ng’s gaze was cold, his expression solemn. The True Essence in his body surged and swelled. "Martial Soul Talent—Soul Attachnt!"
BUZZ!
The Fiery Demon Blade Martial Soul trembled, its crimson light flaring intensely.
Luo ng brought his hands together at his center, and streams of crimson fla surged into the Tiger Demon Mountain-breaking Saber.
The Fiery Demon Blade Martial Soul above him also transford into a streak of red light, shooting down and rging with the Tiger Demon Mountain-breaking Saber!
SHING—
An unparalleled saber aura soared into the sky, threatening to split the Celestial Vault itself!
This was Luo ng’s Martial Soul Talent—Soul Attachnt!
It allowed him to attach his Fiery Demon Blade Martial Soul to his Profound Weapon, completely fusing himself with the weapon.
Not only did it enhance the Profound Weapon’s power, but more importantly, once he used his Soul Attachnt talent, Luo ng would also grasp the power of Blazing Fire Saber Intent!
Overflowing with confidence, Luo ng now gripped the saber in one hand, his cold eyes sweeping over Jiang Chen. "Jiang Chen, let’s settle this with one battle, to the death!"
"Just what I wanted! Bring it on!"
Jiang Chen roared and shot into the air.
BOOM—
A hundred-ter-long pillar of wind trailed behind Jiang Chen as he slashed out with his sword. "Gale Break!"
A spherical ball of Sword Qi shot forward.
Luo ng sneered and swung his long saber. "Fiery Sun Slash!"
The crimson saber aura shone like a blazing sun, radiant as a rainbow, and stirred the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi into a frenzy.
RIIIP!
A sound like tearing cloth suddenly erupted.
The power of the crimson saber aura had increased severalfold. The peerless saber flash brutally slashed through the sphere of Sword Qi, blowing it apart.
’The power of Saber Intent?’ Jiang Chen’s pupils constricted slightly.
Luo ng burst out laughing. "That’s right, Saber Intent! Jiang Chen, now that I wield Blazing Fire Saber Intent, you’re no match for at all! Die!"
Before his voice had even faded, Luo ng had already unleashed three consecutive slashes.
Fiery Sun Slash!
Three Flas Sea Splitting Blade!
Burning Fla Nine Waves Slash...
RUMBLE!
The terrifying and unparalleled Saber Intent crisscrossed the battlefield, increasing the power of each saber flash several tis over, rendering them unstoppable!
"Fuck, is that Blazing Fire Saber Intent? It’s terrifying! Just a wisp of that Saber Intent leaking out is enough to make my soul tremble!"
"No wonder everyone calls Luo ng a Natural Saber Master! So his Blazing Fire Saber Intent cos from his Martial Soul Talent. Tsk tsk, a Martial Soul Talent like that is just too heaven-defying!"
"Jiang Chen is definitely going to lose!"
Jiang Chen ignored the crowd’s taunts and chatter as if they were air, his expression calm as he raised his sword to et the attack.
He raised his arm, his longsword sweeping across the sky.
Wind Fluctuation!
A storm without ripples, a furious dragon coiling back.
Gale Break!
A spherical ball of Sword Qi shot out, rumbling as it flew.
Divine Wind Extre...
His strongest sword technique, utterly invincible!
Three saber strikes against three sword techniques!
Just when everyone thought that Luo ng, who wielded Blazing Fire Saber Intent, was sure to win, the terrifying saber flashes were brutally broken by the sword auras, dissipating into nothing.
Watching Jiang Chen shatter the imposing attacks, the crowd erupted in an uproar, their faces filled with shock. "S-Sword Intent? Jiang Chen has actually grasped Sword Intent? Fuck... Are you kidding ? Luo ng has Blazing Fire Saber Intent because of his Martial Soul Talent, but how old is Jiang Chen? How can he be this strong?"
"Bullshit Natural Saber Master! Jiang Chen is the real Natural Swordsman!"
"This is a clash of true martial intents! Who will co out on top?"
In the crowd, Yun Jianshen’s gaze was dark and cold, his eyes glinting with killing intent. ’Saber Intent, Sword Intent... I, Yun Jianshen, have pondered the Martial Dao for decades and never comprehended them. By what right do these two brats possess such power?’
Outside the battlefield, Xiao Qingyi listened to the crowd’s words, her bright eyes revealing her worry. She looked at Aunt Yun and asked nervously, "Aunt Yun, Brother Chen will definitely win, right?"
"Well..."
Aunt Yun was taken aback, then gave a bitter smile. "Even though Jiang Chen has an Earth-tier Profound Weapon and has even grasped Sword Intent, Luo ng also has Saber Intent. And after being empowered by his Martial Soul, his Tiger Demon Mountain-breaking Saber is no less powerful than the sword in Jiang Chen’s hands. Jiang Chen has almost no advantages, while Luo ng’s cultivation is far greater than his. For Jiang Chen to win this fight... it will be very, very difficult!"
Xiao Qingyi’s expression changed. Her misty eyes flickered, and she clenched her fair hands, saying resolutely, "Brother Chen is the strongest. He will definitely win!"
Aunt Yun forced a smile. "Let’s hope so..."
「anwhile...」
Luo ng had also recovered from his shock. He stared at Jiang Chen, a flash of jealousy in the depths of his eyes as he roared angrily in his heart: ’On what grounds? Why was *he* able to comprehend Sword Intent? I’ve had a natural affinity for Saber Intent ever since I awakened my Martial Soul Talent, but after all these years, I still haven’t truly mastered this power. On what grounds does this kid get to?’
He thought of how the world called him a Natural Saber Master.
That title, once a symbol of glory, now felt like a brand of sha, making Luo ng’s face burn.
He only had Saber Intent because of his Martial Soul Talent.
But what about Jiang Chen?
He was younger than him, and his cultivation was far weaker, yet Jiang Chen had comprehended true Sword Intent.
Didn’t that an his talent, Luo ng’s talent, was inferior to Jiang Chen’s?
How could Luo ng tolerate that?
"Mad Demon Saber Technique, First Technique—Dance of the Demons!" Luo ng roared, his face contorted in a ferocious snarl.
A red light erupted from his body, transforming him into a giant of fla.
His body moved like the wind, spinning wildly. Amidst the WHOOSH of licking flas, he slashed out again and again. Each slash transford into a savage Fla Demon that flew toward Jiang Chen. It was a true Dance of the Demons, poised to devour Jiang Chen and burn him to ashes.
Jiang Chen’s gaze was icy. He swept his longsword, and the sword light fanned out like a peacock’s tail, forming a Sword Curtain to block the Fla Demons.
Each beam of sword light shattered a Fla Demon.
But he couldn’t withstand the endless tide of Fla Demons. There were too many. He fought as he retreated, his mind racing. ’As expected of a genius from the Saint Martial Sword Sect, Luo ng’s combat power is truly heaven-defying. My cultivation is still too weak to kill him. It seems I’ll have to use my trump card.’
At this thought, Jiang Chen unleashed a powerful sword strike. A destructive storm materialized out of thin air where his blade pointed.
He tore an opening through the swarm of Fla Demons.
Seizing this brief mont to catch his breath, Jiang Chen’s gaze shifted. The qi and blood in his body began to boil like a soaring dragon and a leaping tiger. Within him, his Martial Soul, the God-slaying Sword, trembled slightly, releasing a terrifying radiance.
Jiang Chen’s long hair whipped about, and his robes fluttered noisily. The Spirit-Slaying Sword in his hand humd as he let out a thunderous roar, "Luo ng, you’re not the only one with a Martial Soul Talent! I’ll show you that in my presence, your so-called pride is nothing but a pathetic joke!"
"Talent—Devouring God!"
Jiang Chen bellowed.
BOOM—
A terrifying power spread through his entire body, which had beco like a giant black hole, madly drawing in all the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
The Martial Artists whose cultivation was below the True Martial Realm Fifth Stage felt the qi and blood in their bodies boil, as if being sucked away by a terrifying Devouring Power.
RUMBLE—
The fluctuations of Jiang Chen’s aura grew stronger and stronger, already surpassing the True Martial Realm Sixth Stage, Seventh Stage, Eighth Stage...
Talent Devouring God, after devouring the Spiritual Qi within a five-hundred-zhang radius, had forcefully and temporarily raised his cultivation by three Small Realms, causing his power to surge.
Jiang Chen’s eyes shone with a brilliant divine light. His long robes fluttered, and his battle intent soared. He clenched his hand in mid-air, and the Spiritual Qi exploded, causing the very air to tremble.
The feeling of being filled with power made Jiang Chen cry out, "Aweso!"
He suddenly turned his head to look at Luo ng and roared, "Luo ng, take my strongest sword strike—Divine Wind Extre!"
As soon as his voice fell, the Spirit-Slaying Sword had already been swung.
WHOOSH!
Within a hundred-zhang radius, a fierce wind howled and a storm raged as waves of Sword Qi Storms swept forth. The world itself seed to beco a cage of storms, closing in on Luo ng.
Luo ng’s expression changed drastically. The Storm Sword Qi made him feel the threat of death. His eyes turned crimson as he roared repeatedly, "Get away from —"
He unleashed one attack after another!
The first technique of the Mad Demon Saber Technique...
The second technique...
The third technique...
Each technique was stronger than the last, and every move was enough to slay an expert of the sa realm.
However...
Faced with this strongest sword strike from the now-empowered Jiang Chen, all of his attacks were like tofu, crushed and obliterated with ease.
A sharp, black Sword Qi grew larger and larger in his pupils, piercing through the sky-like curtain of saber light and slashing directly onto Luo ng’s body.
"No—"
Luo ng let out a roar of defiance, his whole body jolting violently.
A thin, red line appeared, running down from the top of his head, across his neck, his chest... all the way between his legs. Droplets of blood trickled down as Luo ng’s body split into two halves!
The great Luo ng, a True Martial Realm Ninth Stage expert known as the Natural Saber Master.
Was slain by a single sword strike from Jiang Chen in Yunxian Valley!
Gazing at Luo ng’s body, split in two by a single strike and falling from the sky, everyone in Yunxian Valley was dumbfounded.
One after another, horrified gazes turned to the sword-wielding youth standing in mid-air, all of them filled with reverence, as if looking upon a god!
P.S. Second update is here. The third will be out shortly, please be patient!
