When Su Yang previously crossed swords with Ye Jiansheng, Ye Jiansheng had suppressed his strength to match Su Yang’s level. However, Su Yang was truly no match for Ye Jiansheng.
As Ye Jiansheng had said, he had reached Great Perfection in every realm he cultivated, and in each realm, he was genuinely invincible!
Therefore, even if Ye Jiansheng really suppressed his strength to Su Yang’s realm, Su Yang was absolutely no match for him!
Nevertheless, Su Yang was innately proud and stubborn, knowing full well it was impossible, yet he refused to back down.
"Then let’s give it a try!" Su Yang said coldly, "If you can kill , then I will listen to everything you say!"
"If I kill you, why would I need you to listen to ?" Ye Jiansheng replied coldly.
"Let strength do the talking, no need for more words!" Su Yang shouted loudly, his aura continuously climbing, as a mass of black energy ford around him, enveloping him within.
Ye Jiansheng stopped talking and tapped the sword box behind him with his right finger, ejecting a longsword. Ye Jiansheng flicked his finger on the hilt, and the longsword imdiately tore through the void, stabbing straight at Su Yang.
By this ti, the black energy behind Su Yang had taken shape, forming a huge Shadow Phantom standing behind him. Devouring the Heavens was exhibited to its utmost by Su Yang!
With a loud shout, Su Yang extended his hand and fiercely punched towards the longsword. The Shadow Phantom behind him moved faster, also throwing a punch at it.
The Shadow Phantom’s fist collided with the longsword, but the anticipated scenario of the Shadow Phantom blocking the longsword did not happen.
The Shadow Phantom’s fist hit the longsword, however, it was as if it had encountered a mass of air. There was no sensation of contact or collision at all, the longsword passed through the fist. The Shadow Phantom’s fist remained unchanged, as did the longsword, still rapidly stabbing toward Su Yang below!
Su Yang’s expression changed dramatically; such a situation was sothing he had never encountered before. Devouring the Heavens was the strongest secret technique of the Demonic Sect, capable of devouring everything under the heavens. Even if the Shadow Phantom could not stop the longsword, it should at least block it for a mont.
But, against all odds, the Shadow Phantom seed as if it didn’t exist at all. When the Shadow Phantom and the longsword collided, there was no forceful impact, as if they were in different ti and space. It was extrely bizarre.
Now, Su Yang had no ti to think so much. The longsword was rushing towards him at high speed, and he had no choice but to strike with all his might to et it.
He didn’t know whether his punch could withstand the longsword, but he truly had no other options. Dodging was impossible—in front of Ye Jiansheng, he couldn’t possibly evade. Therefore, he could only strike back with all his might, hoping to repel the longsword!
However, since the Shadow Phantom couldn’t dissipate the power of the longsword at all, for Su Yang to punch it was like courting death.
Yet Su Yang did not retreat in the slightest.
But the longsword didn’t pierce directly through Su Yang’s fist. When his fist collided with the longsword, Su Yang was surprised to discover that the descending longsword had no strength at all.
No wonder the Shadow Phantom had passed the longsword by—the longsword didn’t even have the strength to fall, what could Devouring the Heavens devour then?
The strangest part was, Su Yang’s punch, clearly hitting the longsword, felt as if he had struck the air.
The sensation was as if Su Yang’s punch had hit a feather, completely lacking a pressure point. No matter how strong Su Yang’s punch was, what could you do to a feather?
While Su Yang was stunned, a powerful force suddenly burst from the longsword. The strength was so imnse that it crushed the stone slabs beneath Su Yang’s feet, and his legs imdiately sunk into the ground.
Su Yang’s body was slightly bent, and his arm nearly shattered. The longsword pressed on his fist, as if a mountain was suspended overhead, which could crush him completely at any mont!
At this mont, Su Yang finally understood what Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng ant by Great Perfection in each realm.
Su Yang could feel that the power of Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng was at the sa realm as his own; they were both at the interdiate stage of the Fusion Realm. However, the power in Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng’s hands had beco incredibly formidable.
Moreover, the power was elusive, impossible to grasp, fighting against him, you could not trace the trajectory of his power, let alone break it. In a battle within the sa realm, Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng truly was invincible!
Su Yang had progressed smoothly since he began his cultivation, hardly facing any setbacks.
The previous battle in the cave atop the mountain, where Su Yang nearly died, was because he was pitted against the power of the Divine Sovereign Gwu Jihan. After all, he was a Terrestrial Immortal, a realm slightly higher than his own. Therefore, despite the crushing defeat, that battle couldn’t be considered a setback for Su Yang; it was rely Gwu Jihan overpowering him with a higher realm.
But today’s battle with Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng was a real setback. With the sa realm and the sa power, he truly couldn’t withstand a single move from Ye Jiansheng.
Just as Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng had said, if he wished, a single sword stroke would be enough to take Su Yang’s life.
And now, that was exactly the case!
However, Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng didn’t press down with his sword fully. He was clearly holding back its power, as if he were pulling back a mountain, which was why Su Yang wasn’t flattened by it. But if Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng released his grip, Su Yang would be utterly crushed.
"Su Yang, do you admit defeat?" Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng said coldly.
Clamping his teeth, Su Yang responded in a deep voice, "No!"
As the power in the longsword grew, Su Yang’s lower legs sunk into the ground, the force he was enduring nearly breaking his bones.
"Now, do you admit defeat?" Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng asked again.
"No!" Su Yang let out a roar from deep within his throat.
Strength increased once more, and Su Yang’s knees buried into the ground. The imnse force brought all his bones close to their breaking point, as if just a little more and his entire skeleton would shatter.
"Do you admit defeat?" Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng asked again.
"No!" Su Yang roared with all his might.
Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng shook his head, "You should understand, you have lost. What’s the point of persisting like this?"
"I have lost, but that doesn’t an I have to accept you!" Su Yang shouted back.
"Oh?" Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng was slightly surprised, "What’s the difference?"
"Being bested in skill is due to my insufficient cultivation. However, I don’t have to agree with what you do!" Su Yang said firmly.
Sword Saint Ye Jiansheng replied coldly, "So, you still won’t leave Wan Tong alone, continuing this entanglent?"
"I have never entangled Ye Wantong; she is my friend. If she marries, I will bless her," Su Yang said coldly, "But since she is my friend, I won’t let her do things she dislikes. If in the future she accepts this marriage, then of course I will congratulate her. But if she doesn’t want this marriage, then I will do everything in my power to stop it. That’s what a friend should do!"
