Countless boulders shattered one after another. But they suspended mid-air and infused with sword qi, reversed direction and hurtled back toward the Great Liang Emperor.
At this mont, the last cyan flying sword was also shattered. The Great Liang Emperor, facing the incoming barrage of rock fragnts, swung both fists, dispersing the stones in all directions. Distant mountains, tall and short alike, were struck by the debris. Countless trees smashed and the fragnts embedded deep into the mountain faces.
The Great Liang Emperor arrived in front of the Sword Sect's Sect Master, unleashing a relentless barrage of punches upon this number one master of sword dao.
In response, the Sword Sect's Sect Master t every attack with sweeping sword qi from every movent of his hands.
In re monts, the two had already fought dozens of rounds.
The Great Liang Emperor brought his palm down toward the top of the Sword Sect's Sect Master's head, while the Sword Sect's Sect Master countered, using his fingers like a sword and slashing across the Great Liang Emperor's abdon.
The flow of qi fluctuated violently. The Great Liang Emperor's palm strike did not land, nor did the Sword Sect's Sect Master's sword strike reach the Great Liang Emperor.
Yet even so, several wounds appeared on the Great Liang Emperor's body.
It turned out that the shattered flying swords, seemingly destroyed by the Great Liang Emperor, were not completely gone. After the swords shattered, they quickly condensed into a single multicolored flying sword. At this mont, it suddenly appeared and pierced directly through the Great Liang Emperor's abdon.
A sword plunged deep into his body.
The Great Liang Emperor took several steps back, lowered his head to glance at the sword, and remarked with vicissitudes of emotion, "Sect Master is indeed worthy of being the foremost in the world's Sword Dao."
The Sword Sect's Sect Master's complexion turned sowhat pale. Hearing this, he could only shake his head with difficulty.
This battle was unbearably grueling.
However, no one expected what happened next. The sword that had pierced through the Great Liang Emperor's abdon was grasped by his hand. Then, she slowly pulled it out, then slapped the hilt, sending the flying sword hurtling back toward the Sword Sect's Sect Master.
The Sword Sect's Sect Master's expression darkened. He was connected to the flying swords in mind and spirit, the Great Liang Emperor should not have been able to control it. Yet now, for so unknown reason, he could not control this particular flying sword at all.
His own sword returned to him, but the Sword Sect's Sect Master could not manage the sa calm composure as the Great Liang Emperor. Unlike the world's top martial artist, his body was far from being as resilient.
Fortunately, the flying sword began to disintegrate mid-flight. By the ti it reached him, only the hilt remained.
Struck by the sword hilt, the Sword Sect's Sect Master staggered back several steps.
Ripples spread behind him in waves.
Initially, he had thought it might end there, but the Great Liang Emperor's next punch arrived. This ti, it landed solidly on his chest. The overwhelming force of the qi sent the Sword Sect's Sect Master flying backward once more.
He smashed through a low mountain.
And pierced straight through it.
The Great Liang Emperor shot out and pursued without hesitation.
The Sword Sect's Sect Master kept retreating rapidly, paying no attention to what scenery lay behind him. Regardless of whether trees or mountains, everything was shattered to pieces in his wake.
It was not that the Sword Sect's Sect Master's body was exceptionally tough, but as he retreated, he had already infused a stream of sword qi behind him. At this mont, he resembled a sharp sword; though he was retreating, it was also an act of drawing the sword.
In an instant, the two of them fought across tens of thousands of miles.
They had likely traversed a large portion of the Great Liang.
Along the way, countless cultivators witnessed this scene. Yet, as they watched in shock, the two powerhouses of the current era streaked across the sky like teors, far beyond what ordinary cultivators could hope to follow.
The two ascended and descended repeatedly, fighting ceaselessly. The Great Liang Emperor's blood vitality surged as his relentless punches landed, each strike carrying the force of ten thousand pounds, pumling until the Sword Sect's Sect Master's expression was incredibly ugly.
Although the Sword Sect's Sect Master managed to parry with his sword strikes, he was now clearly falling behind in all fronts.
It was hard to say whether or not the Great Liang Emperor was angered, but at this mont, even if he was not exerting his full strength, he was at least using 90% of it.
The Sword Sect's Sect Master ford seals with both hands and once again thrust a sword forward before him. A brilliant white line extended outward as his figure transford into a streak of sword light, pulling away from the Great Liang Emperor and instantly creating a distance of a thousand feet.
After that, the distance grew to thousands of miles.
The two of them fought their way into the borders of Yellow Dragon Prefecture.
The Sword Sect's Sect Master had no idea where they were, but he could feel sword qi lingering in the air nearby. It was only then that he realized they had arrived near Sword Qi Mountain.
Taking a deep breath, the Sword Sect's Sect Master looked into the distance. At the edge of his vision, the Great Liang Emperor was approaching with overwhelming montum. The Sword Sect's Sect Master suddenly raised his voice and shouted, “Lend a sword!”
The place with the most sword cultivators in the world was undoubtedly the Sword Sect. But the place with the most flying swords was naturally the Sword Qi Mountain.
A loud voice echoed down from the sea of clouds.
On Sword Qi Mountain, countless flying swords began to tremble and hum.
Yang Furen stood atop the mountain peak, listening to the voice descending from the sea of clouds. Looking into the depths of the cloud sea at the imnse surge of sword intent, he furrowed his brows.
Even without leaving Sword Qi Mountain, Yang Furen already knew most of what had transpired today.
The mountain peak quickly filled with countless swordsmiths. Hearing the Sword Sect's Sect Master's request, these swordsmiths all turned their gazes toward Yang Furen.
Yang Furen suddenly burst out cursing, “Your Father isn't lending a thing!”
Hearing this, the swordsmiths all widened their eyes in shock, seemingly unable to believe their mountain lord would make such a choice.
Yang Furen was expressionless, “Activate the mountain-protecting grand array! Not even one flying sword from Sword Qi Mountain can fall into that old bastard's hands!”
At this mont, Yang Furen even regretted not driving the Sword Sect's Sect Master off the mountain when he first arrived.
Back then, he had assud the Sect Master only intended to face the Great Liang Emperor in a final battle to attain enlightennt in Sword Dao. Who would have thought he would exploit the situation and set a trap to kill the Emperor?
As his words sounded out, ripples suddenly spread across the sky above Sword Qi Mountain, enveloping the entire mountain.
At the sa ti, the flying swords on the mountain finally broke free from the ground and rushed toward the sky. However, before they could pass the mountain-protecting grand array, they all fell back down again, creating what seed like a rain of swords.
“Mountain Lord, why are you doing this?!”
One of the swordsmiths voiced their concern. As the number one sword cultivator sect in the world, Sword Qi Mountain should not be offending the Sword Sect. Even if today, every sword on the mountain was borrowed by the Sword Sect's Sect Master, and fewer than 20% returned, the favor gained from the Sword Sect's Sect Master would make this trade undeniably very worthwhile.
"This shaless old bastard may not care about his reputation, but Your Father cares about mine! Even if my Sword Qi Mountain does nothing today, we cannot stoop to the level of this old bastard!" "If he's really so capable, why doesn't he go kill the Demon Emperor? What skill is there in fighting his own kind?!"
Yang Furen was furious, gritting his teeth as he said, "From this day forward, disciples of the Sword Sect are forbidden to take swords from Sword Qi Mountain!"
"Mountain Lord, please reconsider!"
Countless swordsmiths spoke up. Regardless of the outco of today's battle, the Great Liang Emperor was already the public enemy, and would likely face a grim end. For Sword Qi Mountain to make such a decision now, it would seem to outsiders as if they were aligning with the Great Liang Dynasty. This move might bring disaster upon Sword Qi Mountain.
"Reconsider your mother!"
Yang Furen thought of the words Li Heng had not spoken when he climbed the mountain back then. His expression suddenly beca resolutely firm.
The Sword Sect's Sect Master, failing to borrow a sword, was montarily stunned but had no ti to ponder why. Monts later, he no longer hesitated and exhaled lightly.
It was ti to unleash that sword strike.
That sword had reached nine parts of completion. With the battle raging on until now, unleashing it might just complete it.
At this thought, even the Sword Sect's Sect Master felt a mont of inner turmoil.
It was the culmination of his life's cultivation, all for that one sword.
Now that it was about to appear in the world, how could he not feel excited?!
As the Sword Sect's Sect Master focused his mind, waves of vast sword intent began radiating from his body. Simultaneously, countless flying swords burst forth from the ground!
Sword Qi Mountain might refuse to lend its flying swords, but the world had flying swords beyond just those of Sword Qi Mountain.
The entirety of Yellow Dragon Prefecture boasted tens of thousands of sword cultivators!
The companion swords of countless sword cultivators rushed toward the sky at this mont.
At first, these sword cultivators were shocked and furious. But after seeing countless flying swords rising from the ground across the entirety of Yellow Dragon Prefecture, their minds shook.
"It’s the Sword Sect's Sect Master's ultimate sword!"
The sword cultivators quickly grasped the situation, focusing their attention toward the sky. Having their swords borrowed was no longer a concern. To exchange their flying swords for a chance to witness this sword was more than worth it!
As countless flying swords continuously rushed to the sky, the once-clear heavens suddenly erupted with lightning and thunder. Countless purple lightning streaked across the sea of clouds.
The Sword Sect's Sect Master's sword strike seed to have just started building montum, but had already invoked the might of heaven and earth.
It was undoubtedly no ordinary sword art of the mortal realm!
Rumors had long claid that once this sword was perfected, the Sword Sect's Sect Master would transcend Nepenthe and reach an even higher realm. Looking at it now, it seed those rumors were not unfounded.
How could the techniques of ordinary sword immortals compare to the unparalleled grandeur of the Sword Sect's Sect Master's sword strike?!
Sword Sect.
Countless sword cultivators fixed their gaze on the heavens, knowing that the Sword Sect's Sect Master's sword strike was finally about to be unleashed.
For sword cultivators, this was a rare and monuntal opportunity. Gaining even a hint of insight from witnessing this sword would undoubtedly provide imnse benefits to their comprehension of Sword Dao.
Thus, countless people were paying attention to that strike in the heavens.
Only Yu Xiyi who was gravely injured never looked up. Even though he knew this was a once-in-a-lifeti sword, he just lowered his head, gently stroking his sword, Wild Grass, with a calm expression.
Such an unparalleled sword, even if mastered, what of it?
To , Yu Xiyi, it holds no aning.
