Chapter 798: Innate Body Break Sword Qi
Translator: jinzeffect
Be it a mule or a horse, once it was brought on a ride, the outcome would be obvious.
After the introductions, the selection was starting.
The venue was the plaza in the peach forest.
The five would take turns to fight each other and the person that won all fights would be appointed as a preparatory elder.
The reason for being a preparatory elder was to prevent any fraud. For example, everyone could take turns nominating one individual and that individual could become a main elder. That would allow the Swordsmen Guild to have too many main elders. By then, the guild would be made up of inferior members, making them a joke.
Therefore, after the selection, there would be another selection. It was very simple and it was to fight with a sword saint puppet for 10 minutes. Those who fail wouldn’t be qualified to become the main elder.
“I will go first, who is willing to be my opponent.” The short youth beside the gray-haired man, Wei Yijian said loudly.
“Let me try your skills.” The red-clothed young woman, Zhuge Yihua’s figure flashed and appeared in front of Wei Yijian.
“Be careful now.” Wei Yijian turned into a black smoke and suddenly vanished.
Cling!
Zhuge Yihua’s senses were very acute and blocked the slash that came out of nowhere.
“This is the phantom sword dao?” The Mystic Deep Sword Saint let his mouth slip after seeing the shocking talent.
The phantom sword dao was an incredible sword dao used for assassination and was always untraceable.
The gray-haired man laughed and said, “Wei Yijian’s phantom sword dao is a fusion of sword shift and sword art. Even if his opponent is more powerful but couldn’t deal with the phantom sword dao, they would be defeated.”
If you couldn’t hit your opponent, but your opponent could hit you easily, once the battle extended, you would naturally lose.
“That might not be the case.” The beautiful lady didn’t mind and was seemingly confident towards Zhuge Yihua.
“Safflower Life and Death!”
After over a dozen moves, Zhuge Yihua who was gradually declining had a sudden change in sword aura. A safflower bloomed in the void and there was a diminishing sword shadow that shuttled between various spatial zones.
“Safflower sword dao huh?”
Li Fuchen could see that Zhuge Yihua’s safflower sword dao was obviously the same as the Safflower Empress’ safflower sword dao. However, Zhuge Yihua’s safflower sword dao was more profound.
The safflower sword dao contained the true essence of life and death, just like how a flower blooms and withers. It was involved with the cycle of fate.
Wei Yijian’s sword dao level was obviously weaker. His movements and sword art might be phantom-like, but he still wasn’t able to escape the safflower’s restriction.
Pfff!
Fresh blood was vomited as Wei Yijian was expelled from the void.
“Thank you for letting me win.” Zhuge Yihua cupped her fist.
“Hmph!”
Wei Yijian’s expression wasn’t very good. In the Saint Moon Continent, he was the 1st ranker on the Sword Emperor Rankings, but he didn’t think that he couldn’t even defeat a woman.
The gray-haired man didn’t mind when Wei Yijian lost. Wei Yijian was barely qualifying to be nominated as a main elder, therefore, it was normal for him to lose.
“Qin Luo, please give me some advice.” After defeating Wei Yijian, Zhuge Yihua looked at Qin Luo.
Qin Luo had the legendary innate sword body, but it was unknown if it was true.
“Aright.”
Qin Luo walked out and looked at Zhuge Yihua with clear eyes.
“Safflower Life and Death!”
Zhuge Yihua used her signature move immediately. When she slashed with the sword, safflowers were scattered in the void as the sword shadow extended.
“Break!”
Qin Luo raised his right hand’s index and middle fingers before thrusting out. An overwhelming sword qi pierced through the Safflower Life and Death like a divine thunderbolt that pierced through the universe. It also sent Zhuge Yihua flying.
“Such powerful innate sword body.” The Mystic Deep Sword Saint’s eyes lit up.
Qin Luo’s strength was obviously superior to the Sword Emperor, no, it was far beyond the Sword Emperor.
Qin Luo’s body was like an absolute divine sword and could raise his strength to an unimaginable level.
“Such strength!” The originally unhappy Wei Yijian withdrew his emotions.
It didn’t matter even if he could defeat Zhuge Yihua, as he didn’t have any power to resist against Qin Luo.
“I, Pei Xinwen, will try your skills.” The young lolita Pei Xinwen jumped out.
“Please!” Qin Luo’s tender face had a trace of seriousness.
His innate sword body allowed him to clearly feel the strength of his opponent’s sword dao. Pei Xinwen felt as though she had fused with the sword dao law and was completely compatible with the great dao of sword.
“Thunder Clap!”
Qin Luo used the same move he defeated Zhuge Yihua earlier. The overwhelming thunder-like sword qi ripped through the void and blasted straight at Pei Xinwen.
“Azure Dragon Emergence.”
Pei Xinwen didn’t dodge or retreat as she countered with her own sword move.
Boom Boom Boom…
The azure dragon sword qi was tougher than Qin Luo’s imagination. The thunder clap sword qi felt as though it blasted into a pile of cotton and when it was inside the cotton, it felt like it was wrapped in stones.
Taichi sword dao!
Li Fuchen immediately recognized that Pei Xinwen’s sword art contained the taichi sword dao.
Taichi sword dao had a balance of strength and gentleness, making it the most difficult sword dao to deal with.
Unless Qin Luo was significantly stronger than Pei Xinwen, it was impossible to neutralize her sword move.
“Tide.”
Since one move wasn’t enough, Qin Luo followed up with another sweep with his sword finger.
Boom!
The sword radiance was like a tide that had undulations. It felt like an energy wave that was caused by the explosion of stars. The shocking wave spread out to the entire venue.
“Sword Transfer Yin and Yang.”
Pei Xinwen wasn’t in a hurry as two sword shadows of light and dark emitted from her body. They then revolved around her body and at the next moment, there was a constantly flowing sword light enveloping her body. The sword intent contained in the sword move was a flawless equilibrium of yin and yang.
The tidal sword radiance blasted on the sword light barrier and let out waves of loud sounds.
However, no matter how powerful the sword radiance was, the sword light barrier didn’t get any damage. At most it would only deform a little.
The beautiful lady said, “The taichi sword dao is known as the most troublesome sword dao for a reason. It is truly a headache to be her opponent.”
If it was the beautiful lady, she wouldn’t be able to deal with Pei Xinwen if they were on the same cultivation level. Perhaps, she would even lose out at the end.
“You shall break!”
Seemingly realizing the problem, Qin Luo’s figure flashed as he appeared right in front of Pei Xinwen. He then stabbed his sword finger onto the sword light barrier.
Pfff…
The sword light barrier broke along with the sound.
His innate sword body was strongest at close combat. It was the same as a divine sword slashing directly on the opponent’s body, allowing it to produce the greatest destruction.
“Sword Transfer Four Divisions!”
Pei Xinwen retreated quickly and during the retreat, four sword shadows appeared and formed an even tougher sword light barrier.
Pfff!
Qin Luo wouldn’t allow Pei Xinwen to extend the distance as he followed closely and broke the sword light barrier again.
“Sword Transfor Eight Trigrams!”
Eight sword shadows appeared under Pei Xinwen’s legs and produced the pattern of the eight divinatory trigrams.
This time, Qin Luo wasn’t able to penetrate the sword light barrier, but he sent Pei Xinwen flying.
Landing softly on the ground, Pei Xinwen wrinkled her cute nose and said, “Not bad, but to defeat me, it still isn’t enough.”
“Is that so?”
With a flip of the palm, a sword landed in Qin Luo’s hand.
He might have the innate sword body, but it didn’t mean that he didn’t need a sword.
With a sword in his hand, he was now able to pour his sword qi in without restrictions.
After all, even if his body was tough, it was still inferior to a heaven class high-tier artifact sword.
“This time, it is my turn to make a move, Taichi - Myriad Manifestation!”
Pei Xinwen acted as though she didn’t see Qin Luo’s sword and it felt like her body didn’t have any weight. In an instant, her sword art move within a split moment.
It wasn’t possible to describe the terror of this sword move.
Once the sword move was executed, the sword qi turned into all sorts of scenes and engulfed everything.
“Come on then.” Qin Luo wielded his longsword and slashed willfully.
“Li Fuchen, how confident are you in defeating them?” The Mystic Deep Sword Saint was a little uncertain as he asked Li Fuchen.
Li Fuchen watched the battle between Qin Luo and Pei Xinwen as he replied slowly, “100%.”
“Oh? But they have yet to fight at full strength.” The Mystic Deep Sword Saint was astonished.
Li Fuchen might have defeated the Scarlet Python Saint, but the Mystic Deep Sword Saint didn’t know what happened exactly.
“Unless they too comprehended an extremity sword art.”
Li Fuchen wasn’t planning to hide his comprehension of an extremity sword art. Since he was going to become a main elder after the selection, it would be exposed sooner or later.
“You really comprehended an extremity sword art?” The Mystic Deep Sword Saint looked at Li Fuchen with shock.
Even the Tiger Fang Sword Saint and Hundred Flower Sword Saint didn’t comprehend an extremity sword art. Only his Mystic Deep Sword Art reached the level of an extremity sword art.
“After entering the Sword World, my sword art has reached the extremity.” Li Fuchen nodded.
Hearing the reply, the Mystic Deep Sword Saint was even more shocked. Entering the Sword World once was enough for Li Fuchen’s sword art to reach extremity. This level of sword dao perception was truly unprecedented.
While taking a deep breath, the Mystic Deep Sword Saint felt as though he could see the scene of Li Fuchen dominating the universe.
“Perhaps, he can allow our Swordsmen Guild to reach glory again in the Deep Blue Plane.” The Mystic Deep Sword Saint said to himself.
After knowing that Li Fuchen comprehended an extremity sword art, the Mystic Deep Sword Saint was more attracted towards the battle. At the same time, he felt more at ease too.
“Taichi - Primary Return!”
Pei Xinwen used her kill move and it wasn’t just limitlessly close to extremity. It already had the fledgling form of the extreme state. It wouldn’t be exaggerated to call it a quasi-extremity sword move.
When this move was executed, Qin Luo immediately felt Pei Xinwen’s sword qi collapsing and becoming purer. It was now so pure that even his innate sword body felt the stinging pain. He knew clearly that if he was struck by this sword move, his innate sword body would be pierced through.
It was the same taichi sword dao, but Pei Xinwen’s taichi sword dao emphasized offense. Of course, Pei Xinwen’s taichi sword dao wasn’t proficient enough yet. If the taichi sword dao was at the extremity, it should have a balanced offense and defense without having any emphasis on either side.
“Innate Body Break Sword Qi.”
Since Pei Xinwen used her kill move, Qin Luo naturally wouldn’t hold back and burst out with his kill move too.
Countless mist emitted from his body and formed a terrifying sword qi that was blasted at Pei Xinwen.
Pfff!
Fresh blood was vomited and Pei Xinwen ultimately lost.
The two kill moves were almost evenly matched, but Pei Xinwen’s physical defense was inferior to Qin Luo, therefore, she couldn’t endure as much as Qin Luo.
“The innate sword body is truly dominating.” The gray-haired man praised.
The beautiful lady nodded and said, “The innate sword body is an innate bloodline. Regular bloodline constitution isn’t comparable.”
A sword dao saint’s bloodline was actually considered a sword body, but as compared to the innate sword body, it was definitely several levels more inferior.
Once Qin Luo defeated Pei Xinwen, everyone looked at Li Fuchen.
Right now, Li Fuchen was the only person that had yet to fight. If Qin Luo defeated Li Fuchen, he would be the overall victor. If Li Fuchen defeated Qin Luo, he wouldn’t need to fight the others and would be declared as the overall victor.
“Please give me some advice.”
Li Fuchen walked up the stage.
