Lin Xuan charged forward, once again colliding with the Sword Intent. He was injured again, but he imdiately activated the Dragon Vein within him, using its Dragon Power to heal his wounds. Soon, he was fully recovered.
Then, Lin Xuan charged forward once more, clashing with the Sword Intent and cracking his body open again. He continued to heal, repeating the cycle over and over. Each ti he recovered, his physique grew a little stronger. It was like a rebirth, a true Nirvana.
But the others didn’t know this. From their perspective, Lin Xuan was just being injured repeatedly, completely unable to withstand the assault of the Sword Intent.
Jian Wushuang’s lips curved into a smile. "It’s useless, Lin Xuan," he said. "Admit defeat. You are not my opponent."
"We’ve won!" the people from the Celestial Sword Sect cheered.
The rest of the crowd shook their heads and sighed. It seed the gap in their strength was simply too great.
"The Sword Intent is truly invincible. No one can defeat Jian Wushuang."
"Even if this Lin Xuan is heaven-defying, it’s useless!"
The mbers of the Star Pavilion began to sneer. "Look, the kid is in a pathetic state."
"He’s already coughed up blood several tis."
"Is there any reason to continue this fight?"
Chu Yue sneered endlessly, "Lin Xuan, just give up! Hurry up and admit defeat!" Seeing this, she was so excited she nearly jumped for joy.
Ye Qingwu fell into despair. How could it be like this?
The mbers of Wangyue Pavilion were filled with worry. The Wangyue Pavilion Master even stood up, ready to forfeit the match.
Just then, another earth-shattering roar echoed from the arena. Jian Wushuang had unleashed another sword strike, landing it squarely on Lin Xuan.
This ti, however, Lin Xuan did not retreat. He only swayed slightly. At the sa ti, a low dragon’s roar emanated from his body. When this sound rang out, it made the crowd’s blood roil, nearly causing them to faint. Everyone stared ahead in shock. What is happening?
The Wangyue Pavilion Master was stunned. Her eyes glead with a fierce light as she stared at the fighting stage.
On the other side, the Star Pavilion Master suddenly shot to his feet, exclaiming, "How is this possible?"
The rest of the audience was in an uproar. What could possibly have happened to shock two Pavilion Masters so greatly?
At that mont, even the Headmaster of the Heavenly Dao Academy stood up and exclaid, "Is this guy insane?"
Nearby, the Celestial King also rose to his feet, frowning. "I’ve never seen anyone so crazy."
The crowd grew intensely curious. What had happened to shock two Kings so profoundly? What on earth had Lin Xuan done?
Chu Yue grew nervous. He’s not going to be crippled, is he? The thought thrilled her.
The mbers of the various family clans and sects were filled with doubt. Their Clan Leaders and Sect Leaders all focused their gazes on the stage, their eyes sharp as they tried to get a clear look at Lin Xuan’s condition. The next mont, they too cried out in shock.
Sect Leader Wan Huo exclaid, "Heavens, how can this be?"
"I’ve never seen soone so insane!" Clan Leader Yan roared.
The Beiling Sect Leader added, "Does this kid intend to defy the heavens?"
The crowd beca even more curious. What could Lin Xuan have possibly done to shock so many powerful Sect Leaders?
The people of the Celestial Sword Sect were also bewildered. One of their elders said, "There’s no need to worry. No matter what that brat does, there’s no way he can win."
The words had barely left his mouth when the Celestial Sword Sect Leader roared, "Jian Wushuang, defeat him now! He’s using your Sword Intent to temper his physique!"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned. Their minds went blank.
What is Lin Xuan doing? Tempering his physique? And he’s using Sword Intent to do it?! How is that possible?
This was a life-or-death duel! How could Lin Xuan dare to cultivate in the middle of it? Damn it, the Sword Intent is terrifyingly sharp, capable of destroying anything! And he’s using it to temper his body? Does he have a death wish?
The eyes of the other first-tier geniuses nearly popped out of their sockets. When they faced Sword Intent, they didn’t dare to block it at all; their only option was to dodge. Who would be mad enough to use such a power to temper their physique?
But Lin Xuan dared. And not only did he dare, he was succeeding. This was truly heaven-defying.
Now they finally understood why so many Grandmasters and Kings were in shock. It turned out Lin Xuan was doing sothing so unbelievably insane! A madman! He was an absolute madman!
Wan Tianming was terrified. This guy’s thinking is just too crazy.
Yan Chitian gasped in shock.
Chu Yue was instantly dumbfounded. She had assud Lin Xuan was being crippled, never imagining that he was actually cultivating. This was sothing beyond her wildest dreams. For a mont, she simply stood frozen in place.
The mbers of the Celestial Sword Sect were even more devastated. The elders’ faces burned with sha. They had just declared Lin Xuan’s inevitable defeat, but in the blink of an eye, they had been brutally proven wrong.
It turned out Lin Xuan wasn’t losing at all. He was using the power of the Sword Intent to refine his physique! What was this guy thinking? Wasn’t he afraid that one careless mistake would turn him to ash?
The most shocked of all was Jian Wushuang. He was stunned for a mont before his expression turned grim. What is going on? My opponent is using my Sword Intent to temper his physique? This has to be a joke. Is he treating like a whetstone? We’re in a decisive battle, and he has the audacity to cultivate? Unforgivable!
With an enraged roar, his power exploded forth. He was truly furious now. He wanted to kill his opponent in a single blow.
BOOM!
Sword Qi surged from his body, condensing in the air into a colossal sword of energy. It floated there like a mountain range, radiating an overwhelming power.
"Slash!" Jian Wushuang roared, unleashing the sky-piercing Sword Qi. The massive blade descended, looking as if it would destroy heaven and earth.
The crowd gasped. It was clear Jian Wushuang was truly enraged and was trying to kill Lin Xuan instantly!
The mbers of Wangyue Pavilion were extrely tense. This power is too strong, Lin Xuan can’t possibly block it!
The Wangyue Pavilion Master cried out, "Lin Xuan, dodge it!"
Lin Xuan naturally sensed the imnse danger, but crisis was also opportunity. Great fortune is sought through great risk. Can I break through my limits? It all cos down to this single strike.
Roaring at the heavens, Lin Xuan did not dodge. Instead, he charged straight toward the sword. The next instant, the two collided.
A dazzling sword light enveloped everything. The glare was so bright the crowd was forced to shut their eyes, able to hear only a series of thunderous booms. Everyone lowered their heads and squeezed their eyes shut, all wondering the sa thing. Can Lin Xuan possibly withstand this?
Just then, Lin Xuan’s voice rang out from within the blinding light. "Is this all the power you have? It’s not enough. Not nearly enough!"
"Jian Wushuang, are you trash? Don’t you have any stronger attacks?"
The crowd was stunned. My god, has Lin Xuan gone completely mad? He dares to provoke Jian Wushuang at a ti like this? Does he not want to live anymore?
Hearing this, Jian Wushuang roared with even greater fury, unleashing every last bit of power left in his body. He attacked, and Lin Xuan’s figure was completely engulfed.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The sound of shattering echoed out as a spray of blood flew through the air. Lin Xuan was injured. It looked as though his physique had finally cracked. He was about to lose.
A Grandmaster cried out in alarm. The others burst into an uproar. "What? Is Lin Xuan finally going to lose?"
The Celestial Sword Sect sneered. How foolish. The mbers of the Celestial King’s Mansion were thrilled. The Star Pavilion mocked him. The people of Wangyue Pavilion despaired. Many others just sighed.
"This Lin Xuan was too arrogant, trying to cultivate with Sword Intent. Unbelievably audacious!"
"But his end is a miserable one. Ultimately defeated by the Sword Intent and possibly even crippled."
So sighed for him, while others felt he got what he deserved.
Yet, at that very mont, a heaven-shaking dragon’s roar suddenly echoed from within the dazzling sword light, accompanied by a burst of arrogant laughter.
"HAHAHA! I did it! I’ve broken through my limits!"
