Pushing aside with his sword, Zong Shou was still clueless as he looked above. His eyes were filled with a surprised expression.
“Eh, why did you stab me with the sword? I didn’t make you angry…”
The people around were just shocked by Zong Shou’s reaction and sword speed. When they heard his words, their hearts clicked, thinking that this young city lord was probably dead drunk already.
The black shirt old man was both astonished and furious. He smiled as the 2 black colored swords stabbed forth, one from the back and the other from the front.
After his hidden sword killing technique was broken, he decided not to hide anymore. The sharp sword swiftly attacked, bringing with it a sharp whistle. Just as it rose into the sky, the wind that it caused caused the ground which was made up of green stone to lift.
Zong Shou blinked his eyes, instinctively lightly dotting with the long sword in his hand, hitting precisely on the sword tip of the black colored shadow.
Just as he wanted to just dot and brush it aside, he felt an entangling strength land on him. That black colored flying sword had wrapped around his sword body and started rotating, directly cutting towards his wrist.
“Hehe, this sword technique is a little interesting!”
Zong Shou’s eyes instantly lit up. He didn’t panic. It wasn’t until that sharp sword wind rushed to his wrist did the sword in his hand rise up and down like a spiritual snake, reverberating huge strength and directly shaking that black colored sword image off. Then it knocked once more and struck on the other black colored long sword.
Instantly, there was yet another loud metallic cling! The moment both sides clashed, the 2nd black sword was like the 1st one, trying to proceed upwards in a spinning motion. However, before it was able to even wrap itself around, spiral energy exploded out and forcefully blew it away.
All of a sudden, dust and sand flew up in the air and all around. A thousand feet hole was drawn around!
Pretty much forcing away these 2 swords in a simple manner. Zong Shou instinctively comprehended something and had grasped something. Then his eyes shone brightly.
“Oh, I understand. You are from Demon Mountain Sect! I killed many of you all so I don’t blame you for trying to sneak attack me. You should! You should! That Kui Qi from before was the same, in the end, I think I killed him?”
Just as the black shirt old men’s eyes seemed to be tearing up. The aura around Zong Shou’s body changed, becoming extremely sharp as his body had turned into a sword, unparalleled in the world! An uncertain violent intent was hidden within. Fury also rose up in Zong Shou’s eyes, hostility was apparent.
“However I don’t mind if you all attack me, but why did you have ideas on my Yiren. Demon sects are truly like that. I have to vent out my anger. I might not be able to win against you, but I will give you a beating before I am contented!”
The moment he said that, the nine qilin sword by his waist had already come out of its sheath and flew into the air. It suddenly showed an image of nine qilins, releasing huge amounts of fiery light. Without anything special, directly one sword slashing towards that black shirt old man.
That Wei Xu gave a surprised “Eh”, his brows slightly furrowing. He only felt like a large amount of his soul power was “borrowed” away at that moment.
“Borrowing when he wants to but being able to do so in such restraint and free manner. This ability is exceptional…”
Borrowing the power of the martial path wasn’t easy but borrowing soul power was even more difficult. The only method would be to use the help of cultivation methods or spiritual formations.
That nine qilin sword was also using the great sun sword intent. That slash of the sword covering a million miles only took an instance.
Just as Wei Xu was about to exclaim, when the black shirt old man raised his head, the nine qilin sword had already turned into light slashing towards him.
The old man retracted his gaze. Then a sword shadow shot out like a venomous snake’s tongue from within his sleeves. It was as thin as a finger, clashing with that nine qilin sword right away.
Everyone around could only hear a dense lightning explosion sound. Even the original sound of weapons clashing was totally masked.
Over 10 Xuanwu ancestors, even if they stood in front of this extremely firm Tiegang hall which had natural astral wind, able to suppress all kinds of true qi and spiritual energy, they found it hard to bear with it.
Although that black shirt old man was still standing in mid-air, 500 feet below him there was a thousand-foot wide hole with 200 odd feet deep cuts.
Only then were they astonished that what seemed like a casual and not intense engagement was actually filled with so much power! As all the true qi and spiritual power were gathered to the extreme, not leaking outside. This was why it seemed like there was no power at all and only the tip of the iceberg was shown.
“Cruel demon sunflower sword, so you’re another one without balls. When did your Demon Mountain Sect become the Demon Sunflower Sect?”
Li Sina who was below couldn’t help but burst out into a laugh. She was originally a person from a demon sect and knew about the situation within. Ten thousand years earlier the Demon Sunflower Sect used to be a pinnacle sect no weaker than Tailing Sect. In the end, their power waned and their sect scattered. One of the remnant pieces of the sect, the cruel sunflower sword manual was obtained by Demon Mountain Sect. At the start it was still okay, but as time went on 70% of the sect trained in the cruel demon sunflower sword. They were laughed by many sects and cultivators in the world.
Suddenly her hatred and dislike for this son in law were greatly reduced. However, in the next moment, her face was devoid of blood.
Only to see Zong Shou’s speed get faster and faster, not bothering about life or death at all as he headed straight for the black shirt old man.
The old man laughed coldly as he saw that. The 2 black colored sword shadows in the air directly cut over. The 2 finger soft sword in his hand slashed out. At first, it was deceitful and swift. At this moment, the sword attack paused, like on the sword body itself a giant mountain was pressing down on it. It easily forcefully smacked away the nine qilin sword that slashed over once more.
Then, he exclaimed. He saw Zong Shou’s body 400 feet in the air. It was like he disappeared from mid-air, leaving an afterimage on the ground.
In his spiritual sense, he felt extremely sharp energy, with speeds exceeding that of the limits of human comprehension surging out from the black colored sword veil, directly heading right for him.
Pretty much without hesitation, the old man dissipated his original sword intent, the two-finger sword once again becoming sly and swift.
At this moment, he couldn’t see where Zong Shou was at, directly stabbing out with all his strength at where he was roughly at..
If you want to kill me, you will have to die first!
As expected, before that light reached, it was forced to make a turn. The sword energy once again changed, sweeping downwards instead.
The black shirt old man didn’t even think this time, stabbing back with the sword. This time it clashed totally coincidentally.
Then, an energy explosion sounded out! Numerous broken sword energy daggers swept all about. Everywhere it passed, as long as it touched an actual thing, it would instantly destroy and disintegrate it. The originally very well kept and orderly mountain peak was covered in sword marks.
Zong Shou was only forced back for a short moment before the sword wind struck once more. That grade 4 lightning winged sword was pretty much used to its extreme. The lightning winged Yang snake beast soul within had actually appeared outside of the sword!
Both of their swords seemed to be similarly quick and extremely sharp. In just an instant, they had crossed swords a hundred times in mid-air.
Even the nine qilin sword was in a constant battle with those 2 black colored swords. The sound of a weapon hitting weapon was like pearls dropping on a jade plate, incessant. Only that sound was terrifyingly ear piercing. People like Xuanyuan Yiren whose cultivation wasn’t enough had already hidden into the Tiegang Hall.
The image of Zong Shou that appeared in all of their eyes was actually one that stood still on the spot. His body was slowly becoming more and more eye-catching, like a ball of the blazing sun hanging in mid-air. The sword that stabbed out was like rays of light shooting out, never-ending and continuous.
A vast amount of lightning was injected in from the air, wrapping around Zong Shou’s body, strengthening that winged lightning Ying snake to the extreme. The sword body itself started to twist and shake. The beast soul which had nearly recovered to when it was still alive, borrowed the power of the lightning to increase that sword speed by 30%.
People around didn’t feel much but the black shirt old man’s eyes were constricted to that of a needle shape. It wasn’t easy for him to adapt to Zong Shou’s speed, but who knew that he could actually go a level quicker!
At this moment, he had a huge amount of skill but no time for him to use them. He even couldn’t remember any of them. Only that cruel demon sunflower sword was in his head. He went all out to cause the sword speed to get quicker and quicker!
Wei Xu adjusted the crown on his head, muttering deep in thought, “maniac lightning sword intent, great sun sword intent. 2 sorts of sword intents actually merging into one. No wonder he has the confidence of self-creating a sword art that merged the various sword intents into one. If the second senior brother knows about it, he would be totally ashamed. When did he do it in the past? I don’t remember. Anyways, it was after the ascended realm. Who knows…if that sword sect master finds out in the future would he jump up in fury? As they say, having a bird in your hand is better than a bunch of birds in the forest. Master, like what you said I really am intelligent, smart and decisive. However, although this person isn’t a sword cultivator, his sword techniques are amazing. Zong Shou’s body isn’t collapsing…is it because of that spiral energy? To think he could think of such a miraculous technique to break through the barriers from heaven. Oh, there are 3 more breaths, at most 3 breaths and he would reach his limit. If not, this kid’s body would collapse…”
The sword energy intersecting, pretty much having a sweeping like aura like it wanted to level out the peak of the Xuan Mountain. Just the energy ripples from the battle caused this mountain peak which spread hundred thousand feet from north to south to be leveled by hundred feet!
Xuanyuan Tong, at the start, could protect and stabilize things, but just tens of breaths later he helplessly backed off into the Tiegang Hall, protecting this stone hall. Only when the sword light chopped down and was about to split this huge Xuan Mountain did he strike out with a fist to break it into pieces!
But even then, this ten thousand feet tall Xuan Mountain still trembled, mud and sand rolled down, sending Xuan Mountain City into a panic.
In the next instance, Zong Shou’s body which turned into the blazing sun was finally broken.
One two-finger soft sword spat out sword energy. Like it had swelled up a thousand times, totally breaking that sun. Zong Shou’s body was pushed back 2 thousand feet. The clothing on his body was mostly shredded, revealing several cuts so deep that one could see the bone.
The black shirt old man waved his sleeves in disdain, dissipating the blood mist in front of his body.
The people behind Xuanyuan Tong all turned ashen white. They knew that Zong Shou lost in the end. When Wei Xu shook his head and got ready to attack.
In the next instance, they heard Zong Shou’s crazy scoff, “You really have no balls. You really made me mad this time!”
