If these words came from anyone else, the crowd would surely deem them arrogant and brash. But coming from Ning Changge, it felt only natural.
Moments ago, the terrifying might of Jinling still lingered before their eyes, akin to a mythical demon king.
He had destroyed six of the Sword Monarch’s nine famous swords.
If the fight had continued.
Sword Seven and Sword Eight would have followed suit, although Jinling would have had to pay the price of serious injury.
Even Ning Changge’s spiritual monkey was so formidable, comparable to a peerless Heaven-Man. One could only imagine how terrifying Ning Changge himself would be.
Zhang Lingyu felt suffocated.
Previously, he heard tales of Wudang’s Young True Immortal’s incredible feats but had no concept of them. Now, witnessing Jinling’s battle with the Sword Monarch provided him a reference.
Though Ning Changge himself did not appear, the invisible pressure was overwhelming. Among all present, only the Sword Monarch could match Jinling’s strength.
But the Sword Monarch did not feel insulted.
Instead, his fighting spirit surged!
Forcing Ning Changge’s spiritual monkey to retreat and making him take action signified that he had earned Ning Changge’s acknowledgment.
Looking at the still-closed gate of the Sutra Pavilion, he shouted loudly:
“Young True Immortal, grant me a sword!”
He had not forgotten his purpose.
Using the pressure from Ning Changge to break through life and death and reach a transcendent realm. He eagerly anticipated Ning Changge’s strike, having already gained insights from battling Jinling. Ning Changge’s move would surely bring even greater enlightenment!
As for Ning Changge not showing up, he thought:
If Ning Changge could defeat him without appearing, what difference did it make whether he was seen or not?
With the Sword Monarch’s words, his sword intent surged again. Swords held by surrounding swordsmen began to tremble, astonishing everyone.
This indicated that the Sword Monarch’s sword intent was just half a step away from the Land Sword Immortal realm.
“Such a peerless master, dying in Wudang would be a regret.”
Song Yuanqiao couldn’t help but sigh.
Zhang Lingyu was taken aback.
He didn’t expect Song Yuanqiao to have such confidence in Ning Changge. Yet, he didn’t know that compared to the presence of Buddha that day, the Sword Monarch’s strength was barely even.
If his younger junior summoned heavenly thunder, the Sword Monarch would have no chance to resist.
Zhang Lingyu took a deep look at the Sutra Pavilion, anticipating Ning Changge’s action.
The Sword Monarch shouted, bringing with it the terrifying might of a thousand swords aimed at the Sutra Pavilion. He knew the Young True Immortal would strike, not letting him attack the Sutra Pavilion.
A marvelous sword light shot out like a meteor, with imposing grandeur, unstoppable.
This Sword Seven was 30% stronger than Sword Six!
The swordsmen who came with the Sword Monarch appeared tense. They were either admirers of his, former defeated opponents, or beneficiaries of his kindness, and in both sentiment and reasoning, they didn’t want him to fall here.
Facing this formidable sword light.
The Sutra Pavilion remained unmoved.
Ning Changge’s calm voice rang out:
“The sword is named Chi Xiao; it harbors Qian Fire Suzaku Sword Qi.”
A crimson ray suddenly flew out from within the Sutra Pavilion, instantly transforming into a scarlet spiritual sword, with both brilliance and scorching heat that made the Sword Monarch’s eyes light up!
With Chi Xiao Sword’s movement.
A thousand swords resounded!
Every swordsman was shocked to find their swords which had worshiped the Sword Monarch’s now singing in reverence to Chi Xiao Sword. This showed that Chi Xiao Sword’s sword intent surpassed that of the Sword Monarch!
It seemed as though the phoenix’s song echoed through the sky.
Scarlet sword qi transformed into a Suzaku, heading towards the formidable sword light.
Shock filled the Sword Monarch’s eyes.
The Suzaku sword qi effortlessly shattered Sword Seven. The famous sword disintegrated into fragments, unable to bear such terrifying intent.
The Sword Monarch stumbled back.
He spurted blood, staining the stairs beneath his feet.
But his eyes shone even brighter, filled with comprehension. With another famous sword shattered, his sword intent surged more fiercely. From Suzaku sword qi, he gained insights and opportunities.
The Suzaku sword qi, now diminished, dissipated into the air.
Chi Xiao’s spiritual sword reverted to a glimmering light, retreating back into the Sutra Pavilion.
The Sword Monarch realized Ning Changge’s words ‘you have only three sword strikes’.
These three strikes indicated that both he and Ning Changge would each make three moves.
After three strikes, failing to reach the Land Sword Immortal realm would mean the death and entry into the Heaven-Man Tomb!
The Sword Monarch bowed deeply:
“Thank you, Young True Immortal, for granting the first sword!”
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, stepping forward resolutely, like a warrior heading towards a destined death.
Without hesitation, he slapped his sword box again and another stream of light flickered!
A famous sword flew from the box, and its power surged 30% beyond Sword Seven!
The sword light shook the heavens, stirring storm clouds, heading toward the Sutra Pavilion. The Sword Monarch stood tall like a straight sword.
The Sutra Pavilion remained unmoved.
The same calm voice echoed:
“The sword is named Qing Yuan; it harbors Yi Wood Azure Dragon Sword Qi!” New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on n̷o̷v̷e̷l̷f̷i̷r̷e̷.net
A green ray emerged from the Sutra Pavilion, swiftly forming a jade-like spiritual sword, emitting not sharpness but a rich vitality, surprising many.
Song Yuanqiao and others’ eyes widened.
“This is one of the new spiritual swords crafted by our junior brother!”
They eagerly anticipated witnessing Ning Changge’s new methods.
Facing Sword Eight’s formidable force.
Qing Yuan Sword trembled slightly, releasing waves of green sword qi, instantly coalescing into an azure dragon, lifelike.
