This was the first time he praised an opponent , making everyone glance over in surprise. Although the Divine Wind Blade Venerate was defeated, he was still honored.
However, the Divine Wind Blade Venerate felt somewhat uncomfortable. He had roamed the world for many years and never expected to suffer such a crushing defeat today. Such praise might be an honor to others, but to him, it was quite unsettling. However, he had to accept that his skills were inferior, and there was nothing more to say.
Watching the barefoot old man turn away, the Divine Wind Blade Venerate couldn’t help but ask:
"How much further do you have to go?"
The Blade Demon paused, knowing he was asking about the highest realm of the Blade Demon.
He continued walking, his voice faintly trailing behind:
The Divine Wind Blade Venerate was impressed.
He himself was still one step away from the realm where ’everything could be a blade’, and the difference between one step and half a step, though seemingly small, was actually significant.
The opponent could already be called the world’s number one blademan!
He noticed that the Blade Demon’s blade handle was shorter than when he arrived, and he was even more impressed, lamenting how the world could have such a blade path genius who could gain insight from one battle. Who in the world could stop his progress?
The result of this battle spread.
The name of the Blade Demon as the number one blademan was no longer under any doubt.
There were only three people left.
And these three were all swordsmen: the Vast Sea Sword Sect, the Sun Chasing Sword King, and the True Man Tianjian.
The blademen were confident and hopeful that the Blade Demon could sweep through all three, cementing his invincible reputation.
Unexpectedly, however,
the Blade Demon did not appear soon after his battle with the Divine Wind Blade Venerate. Normally, there was a battle about every half month, except for a delay when he faced the True Man Tianjian, but this time, the delay was even longer, and unknowingly, more than half a month had passed.
"Could it be that the Blade Demon was also injured in that battle?"
Countless people speculated, feeling anxious.
They feared the Blade Demon might disappear, making this unprecedented event end with a whimper.
Fortunately, this anxious mood did not last long.
A month after the battle with the Divine Wind Blade Venerate, the Blade Demon finally reappeared.
He challenged the sixth-ranked on the Celestial Being List from the Vast Sea Sword Sect. He traveled to the near-sea Vast Sea Pearl Island, where martial artists had gathered in anticipation, some choosing the reefs, some choosing deserted islands, and others settling on large ships. The area around Vast Sea Pearl Island was unprecedentedly lively.
Everyone realized why the Blade Demon took so long to appear this time.
He battled fiercely with the Vast Sea Sword Sect.
Everyone could clearly see that the Vast Sea Sword Sect was slightly stronger than the Divine Wind Blade Venerate, but unexpectedly, the Blade Demon won even more easily!
Watching the Blade Demon stride over the sea.
Countless people were astonished.
This indicated that the Blade Demon had gained great insight from the previous battle with the Divine Wind Blade Venerate, which explained the month’s delay.
Observant people noticed.
The Blade Demon’s blade handle was now very short, probably only half the width of a palm, looking like a piece of iron.
The result of this battle spread once again throughout the world.
Only two people remained.
One was the True Man Tianjian, and the other was the Sun Chasing Sword King.
At this point, no one knew whom the Blade Demon would challenge next.
If he challenged the True Man Tianjian first, it would indicate that the Blade Demon believed the Sun Chasing Sword King to be the strongest swordsman, and vice versa, if he challenged the Sun Chasing Sword King first.
The swordsmen argued endlessly, as both had a considerable number of supporters.
Which site should be chosen for the next battle’s audience?
The crowd was at a loss.
Thus, a ridiculous scene occurred. Thıs content belongs to 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹~𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮~𝚗𝚎𝚝
Supporters of the True Man Tianjian headed towards the Sunset Sword Sect, convinced that the next battle would be between the True Man Tianjian and the Sun Chasing Sword King and not wanting to miss such a grand event.
While supporters of the Sun Chasing Sword King flocked to the True Martial Mountain.
The world’s martial artists were divided in half.
Both True Martial Mountain and the Sunset Sword Sect were crowded.
When Ning Qi learned of all this, he couldn’t help but shake his head and smile.
He was in high spirits, and although the shadows of the Demon Sect and Southern Border Martial Saint were not yet visible, he was just about to break through to the Celestial Human Realm.
