Chapter 1262: Chapter 1361: Take My Sword Chapter 1262: Chapter 1361: Take My Sword The Shattered Pattern Ancient Sword returned to the hands of the ugly elder, part of its shattered pattern had disappeared, becoming extrely smooth, while another part of the blade still bore the shattered pattern.
With a sigh, the ugly elder assessed the Shattered Pattern Ancient Sword, concluding that it could likely only endure two or three more uses before it would be thoroughly damaged.
Ordinary swords with more cracks indicate a blade on the verge of collapse, but this sword was different; the more shattered the pattern, the more intact the sword. If the pattern decreased, it ant the sword’s lifespan was dwindling.
Since acquiring the sword in his younger years, the ugly elder had hesitated to unleash its true power, fearing it would wear out too quickly.
Now, faced with the formidable challenge of the Three Heroes of Tao Sky, the ugly elder could not secure a swift victory, and was compelled to deploy his true skills.
anwhile, the Three Heroes of Tao Sky were gravely injured, two of their three Peach Wood Swords were broken, and all three spewed blood, their expressions filled with shock.
Having executed their strongest techniques, they still fell to the swordplay of the ugly elder. Startled and unable to continue the fight, the idea of retreat arose in their minds,
“Let’s go!” the Three Heroes of Tao Sky shared an understanding without a word spoken and imdiately turned tail and fled.
Though it was sowhat dishonorable, the Three Heroes of Tao Sky were well aware that the ugly elder still had reserves of strength, whereas they themselves were severely wounded and unlikely to endure. Continuation of the battle might result in their unfortunate demise.
The Three Heroes of Tao Sky were not battling alone; there were yet reinforcents behind them which had not co forth. Having given their all in this battle, retreating now wouldn’t leave too much stain on their honor.
Seeing the Three Heroes of Tao Sky attempting escape, the ugly elder’s eyes narrowed, his finger twitched, and seven ancient swords flew out from behind him, whistling as they chased after the trio.
This was an attempt to utterly eradicate the Three Heroes of Tao Sky, leaving them no chance of survival!
Hearing the sound of cutting wind behind them and feeling the piercing Sword Qi, the hearts of the Three Heroes of Tao Sky panicked.
The youngest of the trio looked back and waved his hand, a purple copper mirror flew out, floating in the heavens above, scattering beams of purple radiance.
The seven ancient swords, under the illumination of the purple glow, slowed down as if the copper mirror was suppressing them.
But it lasted only for a re two breaths’ ti before the copper mirror could no longer hold back the seven ancient swords.
With a snap, the foremost ancient sword pierced through the purple copper mirror, and the six swords following shattered it into pieces, completely destroying its form.
The Three Heroes of Tao Sky continued fleeing without mourning the loss, while the seven ancient swords relentlessly pursued them, closing the distance between them rapidly.
In this chase, they soon left Qian Country, and just as the seven ancient swords were about to overtake the Three Heroes of Tao Sky, a silver Longsword soared through the sky and directly deflected the seven ancient swords.
The expression of the ugly elder in Qian Country imdiately turned into a frown, and with a wave of his hand, he recalled the seven ancient swords back to him.
The Three Heroes of Tao Sky had their lives spared and breathed a sigh of relief. Looking up, they saw a middle-aged man in blue standing above in the sky, with a ssy beard, looking sowhat dispirited, and with a large gourd hanging at his waist.
Seeing that it was this individual who had intervened, the faces of the Three Heroes of Tao Sky flushed with sha, unable to look at him directly.
Although they were all part of the Taoist Sect, deep down the Three Heroes of Tao Sky looked down on the middle-aged man, not just because they held a higher status within the sect, but also because he had once breached a major precept of the Taoist Sect, becoming its disgrace and being shunned by its mbers.
Now that the three brothers had been saved by this middle-aged man, naturally, the Three Heroes of Tao Sky felt awkward and conflicted.
The middle-aged man did not even glance at the Three Heroes of Tao Sky, tapped a foot upon the void, and his figure began to drift toward the direction of Qian Country.
The Three Heroes of Tao Sky, upon seeing this, knew the middle-aged man was about to make a move, and even though they felt quite awkward about it, they also slightly relaxed.
With him stepping in, there was no need for them to worry anymore.
“The three of you, co and heal your wounds,” the young swordsman with the sword also appeared, speaking to the Three Heroes of Tao Sky.
Elsewhere, the middle-aged man had already arrived above Qian Country, facing the ugly man head-on.
The ugly elder squinted his mismatched eyes, staring at the middle-aged man, while the latter, with his eyes hazy from drink, also looked at the ugly elder.
“Three old geezers ran off, and now one young pup has co. The Taoist Sect really is amusing,” the ugly elder grinned and said.
The middle-aged man chuckled, belched from the alcohol: “I didn’t want to co either, but I had no choice. If I didn’t show up, I couldn’t have peace of mind to enjoy my drink.”
“You like to drink? I too enjoy a fine drink, but drinking can cause troubles. Back when I was handso and dashing, it was precisely because of one misstep while drinking that I lost the most beloved girl,” the ugly elder said with a face full of nostalgia.
Though the ugly elder was spouting nonsense, it unexpectedly made the middle-aged man pause for a mont, and involuntarily, a hint of sorrow appeared in his eyes, seemingly because the ugly elder had stirred up reluctant mories within him,
“Young pup, you should just go back. You might not necessarily be able to beat ,” the ugly elder said to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man regained his composure, smiled: “Whether I can beat you or not, that’s sothing we’ll only know after we fight. The younger generation is very interested in swordsmanship, and seeing that the elder is highly skilled in Sword Tao, I feel delighted and would like to exchange so moves with the elder.”
The ugly elder curled his lips: “Exchange nothing, you young pup are too cunning. I’ve just had an intense battle with those three old geezers, significantly draining my energy, and now you co along wanting to take advantage of the situation?”
The middle-aged man remained unperturbed: “This is also sothing the younger generation can’t help. Although I would like to have a fair fight with the elder, the people from the three sects wouldn’t allow to do that.”
The ugly elder huffed: “Then let’s cut the chatter. Co on, let see how much skill this young pup has?”
The middle-aged man nodded: “Given the circumstances, then I must ask for forgiveness in advance.”
No sooner had his voice fallen than the silver longsword he carried on his back was unsheathed, instantly spraying silver light across the Nine Heavens.
The ugly elder’s expression imdiately beca serious. Both experts in the way of the sword, he could tell with a single glance that this middle-aged man’s swordsmanship was extraordinary, far stronger than the Three Heroes of Tao Sky.
The middle-aged man grasped the silver longsword and slightly raised his hand, slowly slashing the sword towards the ugly elder.
This slash was very slow, gently coming down, and at such a speed, anyone could easily dodge it.
But what was truly fearso about this slash was the Sword Intent.
Boom, boom, boom~~~
Endless Sword Intent surged out like a tempest, even causing the swords in the hands of many martial artists in Qian Country to let out cries of Sword Qi, a great many of Qian Country’s martial artists were shocked and appalled.
“Elder, receive my sword,” the middle-aged man said with a smile.
