Whether it was Qingyuan Sword Emperor or Shi Xiaole, both had observed countess sword techniques and studied countless martial arts scriptures to reach the level they were at today.
In fact, every Martial Emperor of the Void Origin Realm was the sa, their every move concentrated the essence of hundreds, and to ordinary martial artists, they possessed an incomparable enlightening value.
Fifty swords.
One hundred swords.
Two hundred swords.
...
After successively stabbing out five thousand swords in just a few breaths’ ti, the eyes of Qingyuan Sword Emperor shot open, and the five thousand sword shadows were reborn. In an instant, they rged into one sword, like a torrent of a sword sea rushing straight ahead, filling the entire light bridge.
This was a sword that gave no room for dodging.
"In the past, it was Three Thousand Poses, now it should be called Five Thousand Poses, right?"
Earth Destroyer Knife Emperor’s hand gripping the knife tightened.
Few people knew that he had clashed with Qingyuan Sword Emperor twice, each taking victories. In his mory, the Three Thousand Poses was the most unexpected move by Qingyuan Sword Emperor, and by the ti the opponent reacted, it was already unavoidable.
Now that Three Thousand Poses had beco Five Thousand Poses, the power had increased significantly.
While thoughts flashed by, Earth Destroyer Knife Emperor stared intently at Shi Xiaole, who was engulfed by sword light, curious about his reaction.
There were no secret moves, no evasion, only to see Shi Xiaole split into five thousand, with five thousand swords stabbing out from different directions, in different stances, and at different speeds.
The only similarity was that these five thousand swords perfectly countered the five thousand swords previously unleashed by Qingyuan Sword Emperor.
Whoosh!
The sword sea torrent collapsed with a loud bang.
"It can be broken like that?"
Under the twisted shadow, Tianying Martial Emperor’s mouth hung wide open.
Not far away, Seven Slaughter Martial Emperor’s arms crossed over his chest involuntarily tensed, with veins popping out of his arms.
He wasn’t deceived by the visuals; it wasn’t that Shi Xiaole had instantly split into five thousand figures. That speed could only be achieved by a Martial Emperor of the Earthly Realm skilled in the Martial Way of Swiftness. The reason for this effect was because each of the five thousand swords that clashed with Qingyuan Sword Emperor left behind a trace of Sword Qi.
It was as if Qingyuan Sword Emperor’s Five Thousand Poses inadvertently triggered Shi Xiaole’s countermove.
What shocked and even frightened Seven Slaughter Martial Emperor was the fact that, if it had been him, he was convinced he could not break the move purely with skill, let alone, how did Shi Xiaole know that Qingyuan Sword Emperor would use this move?
In just a brief mont, the observational skills, control, and combat techniques displayed by Shi Xiaole had all surpassed what Seven Slaughter Martial Emperor could imagine.
This young man from the Flying Horse Dynasty showed everyone in an almost shocking manner that he was a master at the sa level as Qingyuan Sword Emperor, direct and beyond reason!
Everyone was stunned.
"Impossible, I don’t believe it, he can’t be that strong..."
Helian Duba’s face lost all color, and if you got closer, you’d notice his body shaking uncontrollably, unable to suppress it.
One of life’s most embarrassing monts is when soone you’ve constantly belittled and ridiculed slaps back with their actions right in front of you. Recalling his earlier words, Helian Duba’s face went from pale to green, and no words could describe his embarrassnt and helplessness.
Lotus Sword Emperor, Mysterious Ice Sword Emperor, Qizheng Martial Emperor, and others were dumbstruck, feeling like their thought processes and perspectives had been hit by a tidal wave, necessitating a reconstruction of their worldview.
Only Purple Wood Sword Emperor was so excited that his aged face turned red, and the goosebumps on his arms spoke volus of his emotions.
"Breaking the Five Thousand Poses only proves that his combat skills are very clever. Be aware that Qingyuan Sword Emperor has yet to unleash his true skills."
Mysterious Heart Blade Empress admitted she was shaken, but with the precedent set by Wudao Xuan, unless Shi Xiaole truly matched Qingyuan Sword Emperor in strength, it would all be just a flash in the pan, and the higher he jumped, the worse he’d fall.
The crowd, having experienced great trials, quickly cald down, but their eyes were glued to the light bridge with tenfold intensity than before.
"Seventy percent, I’ll use seventy percent of my strength for this sword."
Qingyuan Sword Emperor slowly raised his sword. His ultimate move had been countered without causing him the slightest stir, like a stone cast into the sea, forever unable to affect the ocean.
A sharp Sword Qi that perated heaven and earth arose from nothing, grew weak to strong in the blink of an eye, and in a mont, people felt as if a sword hung over their heads, ready to split them into two at any ti, unstoppable.
"Innate Annihilation!"
In the ti it took to say this, no one could see how Qingyuan Sword Emperor made his move. All they knew was that Shi Xiaole, thousands of ters away, was cut in half. His real body had just appeared on the other side when it was imdiately slashed again.
After nine continuous strikes, the Sword Qi was even more intense. Shi Xiaole hadn’t even stood firm when the sword ca slashing down before he could.
By the end, within a radius of ten thousand ters, all was filled with Sword Qi, stuffing every inch of the void, like countless at grinders operating at the sa ti, the squealing sound causing everyone’s scalp to tingle.
"Is this really just seventy percent?"
"The Qingyuan Sword Emperor of today, I’m afraid, may enter the top ten of Daxia’s Martial World."
The crowd couldn’t help but be astonished.
But soon, their gaze was captured by another azure sword light. The surrounding Sword Qi clashed against it, either being repelled or absorbed, almost impenetrable.
Not until Qingyuan Sword Emperor’s offensive dissipated did the sword light vanish, and inside it, Shi Xiaole was not only uninjured but his breath hadn’t even been disturbed.
"Impressive! Even if he loses to Qingyuan Sword Emperor, the Kirin lives up to the na of the Young Emperor."
"If he’s truly under forty years old, then his talent is absolutely beyond Wudao Xuan!"
Several murmurs of conversation arose around them.
"This is interesting, take my sword at eighty percent strength,"
The Qingyuan Sword Emperor’s feet remained stationary, with the sword tip pointing downward, yet the montum of his sword kept rising upon the existing foundation. A gigantic sky-piercing sword swiftly ford above his head, radiating a torrential might amidst the flowing rainbow lights. The light barrier surrounding the light bridge began to tremble violently, rippling out layer upon layer of ripples.
Spectators gaped, the Qingyuan Sword Emperor’s deanor seed less like a duel and more like the silent contempt of a frontrunner toward a weaker opponent, increasing the pressure bit by bit to see when the latter would collapse.
"Why go through so much trouble? Just go ahead and use your full strength,"
Shi Xiaole said.
"You’re not worthy yet,"
was Qingyuan Sword Emperor’s response.
"Is that so?"
Shi Xiaole smiled faintly.
In the next mont, a sword montum so powerful that it twisted the void and so swift it seed to shorten distances, burst out from within him. It was like a sky-blue tornado with a diater of ten thousand ters, unleashing a roar that seed to shatter the heavens, surging above the light bridge and causing it to shake violently.
Within the sky-blue tornado were floating swords of the sa color crystal, rapidly revolving along their trajectory, enhancing the image of Shi Xiaole at the center, resembling a Sword God amid the wind, commanding the heavens, with each sword strike following the law.
This sword montum had no sooner appeared than it completely suppressed the Qingyuan Sword Emperor’s montum, shrinking it from tens of thousands of ters in radius down to a few thousand ters and it kept retreating.
Hiss!
A chorus of sharp intakes of breath arose.
The Void Origin Realm Martial Emperors present were all experienced and knowledgeable, having gone through all sorts of strange and peculiar situations. They had long since developed the composure that would not flinch even if Mount Tai were to collapse before them.
But at that mont, they were no different from the majority of ordinary people in the world, each one more disconcerted than the last.
The mid-stage Wind Sword Way at full mastery, and this Wind Sword Way exceeded the Qingyuan Sword Way in level, was clearly a half-Supre Martial Arts!
If the crowd was astounded by Wudao Xuan comprehending the natural martial arts at mid-stage full mastery, then now, they were nearly fainting.
This was a prodigy even younger than Wudao Xuan, perhaps much younger.
Yan Si stood dumbfounded, Yan San beside him was no better off, and even Yan Yuchai lost her usual composure, fascination flickering in her beautiful eyes.
"Damn,"
The Yinyang Martial Emperor’s playful smile faded. At this point, to underestimate Shi Xiaole would be to underestimate himself. This was a young expert on an equal footing with him.
The Earth Destroyer Knife Emperor kept stroking his knife, but the rhythm was not as steady as usual.
Wudao Xuan, sitting cross-legged on the fourth floor of the Heaven Asura Tower, awoke from his enlightennt, unconsciously radiating a strong will to fight.
Ignoring the reactions of others, Shi Xiaole gripped his sword tightly, raised it high towards the sky, and then chopped down with force.
The vast tornado suddenly split into countless parts, from which countless crystal swords erupted, forming a huge semicircular arc at the front, covered in a mist of Sword Qi, causing many to avert their gaze after just one glance to avoid stinging their eyes.
Hiss.
Without any resistance, Qingyuan Sword Emperor’s sword montum was shattered. Unable to hesitate, though resentful and ashad, Qingyuan Sword Emperor had to release his full strength, brandishing his sword in a slanting counter-cut.
Boom!
It was like a Heavenly Collapse and Earth Shattering; the entire light bridge seed about to burst.
"Wind Fury!"
Shi Xiaole, seizing the initiative, launched his second sword as soon as the first was finished.
In the past at Sword Evaluation Elegant Mountain in the Sword King Valley, he had absorbed the essence of the rapid Sword Way, "Wind Wound", along with the unnoticeable adjustnt of the life-and-death martial arts, fully showcasing the advantage of sword speed.
"Sword Obliterates Buoyancy!"
Without the ti to consider, Qingyuan Sword Emperor’s sword move acted faster than his thoughts. The two Sword Qis entangled and ground against each other in mid-air, tearing open light fissures that spread out in all directions like a web of space and ti.
Whoosh.
The sword followed the body’s motion as Shi Xiaole shifted tens of thousands of ters aside. As he stopped, the third sword was already charged and lanced out in less than a fraction of a blink.
"Wind Wound."
Layers upon layers of sword shadows spread forward, more ferocious than a raging storm. The Qingyuan Sword Emperor, after two sword strikes, had only the ti to muster sixty percent strength, his emitted Sword Qi was instantly extinguished.
With a loud thud!
Qingyuan Sword Emperor’s feet scraped the bridge as Vigorous Air and the Array System sparked together. When he finally managed to steady himself, he involuntarily spurted out a mouthful of blood as he swallowed.
With fingertips whitened around his sword grip, Qingyuan Sword Emperor’s expression was as grim as it could be.
He could hardly believe that he had been injured in such a manner, by a youngster under sixty years of age from the Divine Barrier Realm.
Humiliation.
This was an imnse humiliation!
"This"
Not just the Qingyuan Sword Emperor, everyone was dumfounded, hardly able to accept such a scene.
Who could have imagined that Shi Xiaole, with the sa level of martial power, would injure the Qingyuan Sword Emperor with just three swords.
