Chapter 2783: Chapter 1492: A Four-Tael Spiritual Sword Moves a Thousand Catties, The Ten-Thousand-Jun Supre Emperor Sword Breaks Through Defenses on Its Own
Swish!
The overwhelming ghostly energy receded like a retreating tide, morphing into whip-like tendrils, all retracting back into the body.
White hair turned black again, the nine tails shrunk back to his waist, and the three bloodlines on the forehead faded away.
Under the sword cries, i Siren, who had once been arrogantly peerless in his ghost beast form, now seemingly sheathed himself like a sharp sword, reverting to the unadorned Xu Xiaoshou.
At this mont, the ancient sword cultivators in and around Jade Capital City all tensed up simultaneously.
It’s here…
Following suit, Ye Xiaotian held his breath and concentrated, comparing the present, simplified state of Xu Xiaoshou with the surrounding Sword Deities, especially i Siren, sensing a consensus:
Indeed, it has arrived…
The external flamboyance retreated, adopting the reserved deanor characteristic of ancient sword cultivators.
“Hum—”
The Supre Emperor Sword, one of the Five Great Divine Instrunts of Chaos, touched the Grade Three spiritual sword Hidden Bitter in mid-air, emitting astounding Sword Will.
That Sword Will nearly materialized, intertwining and fusing, as if evenly matched.
Yet, within a few breaths, it turned overwhelmingly into surges of golden sword energy, sweeping across Jade Capital City and rushing in all directions.
“Ying…”
Hidden Bitter was shaken down, falling into the palm of its owner, as if lodging a grievance.
This scene, captured by Feng Zhongzui with the Dao Imparting Mirror, spread throughout the five domains of the continent.
In the first clash, with evident inferior strength, a wave of doubts arose undoubtedly:
“Hidden Bitter? It looks like just an ordinary spiritual sword… Fourth grade? Third grade? It certainly is expensive, but does it befit the distinguished status of Lord Shou?”
“Where is Xu Xiaoshou’s Fourth Sword? And the Fla Python? An ordinary spiritual sword would probably break upon contact with the Supre Emperor Sword, so is he joking around with this lousy sword?”
“Not at all, I’ve heard that Lord Shou used Hidden Bitter to slay Sword Saint Rao; Hidden Bitter is no ordinary item, it transforms into a serpent upon encountering storms!”
“Pfft! A fine serpent, but I rember he used the Fourth Sword back then?”
“Bullshit! I saw it with my own eyes; he used the Fla Python, the Fla Sword Python, combined with the Infernal White Fla. That is Lord Shou’s exclusive saber!”
“Gentlefolk, stop quarreling, maybe Lord Shou is nurturing his sword. Haven’t you seen Qingju erge just like that, nourished by its ‘na’?”
“Ridiculous! Do you think any old sword has the grace of Qingju, or just anyone has the elegance of the Eighth Sword Deity?”
“Hidden Bitter? I’ll make a bold prediction—Broken Hidden Bitter!”
Before the great battle began, Xu Xiaoshou vaguely saw the Dao of heaven and earth, from all directions, wafting towards him whisps of “Qi” like silken fog.
These qi eventually drifted into Hidden Bitter’s sword body, causing it to beco even more disheartened and its fighting spirit to wane even further.
Far from the earlier stance of defiance.
After touching the Supre Emperor Sword, its spirit weakened once it softened.
“Na…”
Perception swept the four corners, yet nobody made a move on its behalf.
Only Brother Shuangxing seed to sense sothing, stretching a finger to touch sothing in front of him.
Xu Xiaoshou instantly understood.
This was the “na” that could nourish all things, visible only to those who had practiced the Witness Sword Technique and cultivated “sword cognition.”
However, nas achieved upon completion could forge Bazhun’an and Qingju, whereas nas of decline and doubt seed only to have the opposite effect, offering no nourishnt to Hidden Bitter.
“Not so.”
Xu Xiaoshou stood still in the air, pensive.
These nearly substantive “nas” coming from the five regions, if he should ultimately face defeat, might indeed render Hidden Bitter unable to recover.
But if he won!
All doubts would then be empty.
And after reaching the point of no return, they would beco the foundation for Hidden Bitter’s leap from fish to dragon, its success and reputation.
“In the dark past before you achieved your nas, I was like this, and thus the origin of your na ‘Hidden Bitter’.”
“Besides, currently, you are rely a re Grade Three spiritual sword, right?”
“Are they wrong to doubt you?”
With silver sword cognition shining in his eyes, Xu Xiaoshou murmured while his fingers lightly caressed the sword body of Hidden Bitter.
The black sword humd and trembled, swiftly emitting satisfied moans, and in the blink of an eye, it forgot all external skepticism.
Fight!
“Ying—”
The Ying Sword tensed, rigid and straight.
Sword cognition ebbed and flowed between the swordsman and the saber, growing incessantly, and flashing a devouring brilliance.
Beibei’s gaze shifted from that black sword without acting first. Instead, she advised:
“You only have one chance. Change back to the Fourth Sword now, and it won’t break… This is not how you nurture a sword.”
Xu Xiaoshou, however, lifted his eyes with a serene smile, “This is how I ca to be.”
“Fine! Be bold and have no regrets!” Beibei exclaid sharply as the Supre Emperor Sword suddenly erupted with dazzling golden light.
She knew well Xu Xiaoshou’s level of swordsmanship and never took it lightly.
Since warnings were futile, going all out was the ultimate respect for one’s opponent!
“Ten Thousand Sword Technique…”
With palms opening, the Emperor Sword within vibrated madly, gradually elevating, and its aura rose layer by layer.
The fight was on just as soon as the stance solidified, combat erupting without delay!
The citizens of Jade Capital City, imrsed just a breath ago in Lord Shou’s Lip Spear, Tongue Sword, suddenly found every spiritual sword in the entire city airborne.
“Hum hum hum…”
All Swords to the Master.
This was truly the thousands of swords that worshipped him.
Not the Void Solidifying Sword Technique, but the real swords of Jade Capital City!
“First level, Absolute Imperial Control?”
Holding tightly to Hidden Bitter, which was also being drawn in, Xu Xiaoshou looked askance, yet didn’t imdiately intervene.
As a psychological high-placer, he indulged Beibei because he was certain she couldn’t beat him.
As soone beneath the Ten Thousand Sword Technique, he sought to learn from Beibei. He needed her to unleash her swordsmanship fully.
“Way of the Sword Disc.”
Without hesitation, Xu Xiaoshou stepped on the Way of the Sword Disc and concurrently entered the Unity of Man and the Heavens status.
