Chapter 934: Sword Saint Meet
Chapter 934: Sword Saint Meet
After returning to Divine Leaf City, the duo went to their respective seclusion.
Werewolf Li Fuchen had to continue familiarizing himself with his energy and to excavate stronger innate abilities.
Li Fuchen had to continue studying on the Primary Extreme Sword Art and push it into a supreme rate sword art as soon as possible.
Time passed by quickly.
In the Swordsmen Guild’s martial stage.
“Sword Heart Tranquility.”
One could see that the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord’s sword move was even more profound. As compared to before, the current Sword Heart Tranquility was more proficient. Once the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord executed the sword move, there was a space-time whirlpool. Anyone who got sucked in would be in an endless cycle. If the enemy couldn’t break the sword intent, no amount of defense would be useful. The interior of the space-time whirlpool was eternal and the enemy would be crushed into pieces by the eternal attacks.
It was unfortunate that the current Li Fuchen was no longer the same as before.
When facing this absolute kill move that could instantly kill regular unparalleled saint lords in an instance, Li Fuchen smiled and didn’t even draw his sword. He allowed himself to be engulfed by the space-time whirlpool.
The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord frowned while the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess let out a bewildered gasp.
They didn’t understand Li Fuchen’s intention. Could he be trying to personally experience the Sword Heart Tranquility? Didn’t he know that the Sword Heart Tranquility was going to last for eternity even if it was only a split moment. If the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord was slow in withdrawing his move, Li Fuchen might be left without a corpse.
“Not good.” All of a sudden, the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord’s expression changed.
Li Fuchen who was originally sucked into the space-time whirlpool had suddenly reappeared. There was an explosion and the space-time whirlpool was pierced through by thousands of swords before exploding.
“How is this possible?” The Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess felt as though her brain wasn’t working hard enough.
Even if she was a fool, she knew that Li Fuchen’s strength had reached an unbelievable level and he was probably infinitely close to becoming a heaven lord.
“Primary Extreme Sword Saint Lord, how many streaks of source power can you bring forth?” The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord couldn’t hold back the question.
Li Fuchen didn’t hide and said, “999 streaks.”
“999 streaks?” The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord and the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess gasped for cold air.
As of now, the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord could only bring forth 8 streaks of source power, while the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess could only bring forth 1 steak of source power. Furthermore, this was the result of her constantly sparring with Li Fuchen and the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord. If she relied on herself to comprehend her sword dao, she would need to spend dozens of years.
Being able to bring forth more streaks of source power meant a higher proficiency level. At their cultivation realm, a slightly higher proficiency wouldn’t make much of a difference. The difference between saint lords and heaven lords was an impassable chasm. The difference between them and Li Fuchen was also an impassable chasm.
Li Fuchen was able to neutralize the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord’s Sword Heart Tranquility not because of his attack power, it was because of the proficiency level. It was the same as to compare two individuals with similar physique, but one was proficient in boxing, while the other was mediocre. In a fight, the outcome would be obvious.
Earlier on, Li Fuchen didn’t draw his sword. When he entered the space-time whirlpool, Sect Origin Sword’s sword intent activated and instantly neutralized Sword Heart Tranquility’s sword intent. With the sword intent broken, the space-time whirlpool naturally couldn’t continue and exploded.
With a bitter laugh, the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord said, “Primary Extreme Sword Saint Lord is truly god-like. I am ashamed.”
The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord was utterly convinced.
Originally, he was very impressed by Li Fuchen, more impressed than other sword dao heaven lords. But in his heart, he wasn’t willing to accept the outcome. After all, no swordsman would be willing to accept they were inferior. Even if the other party was temporarily reading, they would believe they could catch up.
But now, the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord had given up on catching up.
When he progressed by one inch, the other party progressed by ten feet. No matter how he tried to catch up, he was going to be left behind. It was already fortunate that Li Fuchen was still in sight.
The Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess had already treated Li Fuchen as a god. Therefore, she quickly came back to senses from the shock and asked in a confused tone, “Didn’t they say that one would be able to progress into a heaven lord after bringing forth 100 streaks of source power?”
“There is such a saying?” Li Fuchen was rather shocked.
The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord shook his head and said, “When breaking through into a heaven lord, there are no fixed requirements. It would depend on the potential of the comprehended martial art. Supreme rate martial arts also had differences in strength. The Primary Extreme Sword Saint Lord has shocking talents, therefore, he must have comprehended an incredible quasi-supreme rate sword art.”
“I see.” The Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess was enlightened, so was Li Fuchen.
“That’s right, Primary Extreme Sword Saint Lord, the Divine Leaf City’s Swordsmen Guild is about to host the Sword Saint Meet that happens once every 10,000 years. The top four of the Sword Saint Meet will have a chance to use the Swordsmen Guild’s teleportation array. It is headed towards a galaxy-class Swordsmen Guild and the top four will be allowed to cultivate in the Sword Pool for ten years. You better be prepared.” The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord recalled something and stated it.
“The galaxy-class Swordsmen Guild is located in which star domain? What is the Sword Pool?” Li Fuchen asked.
The Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess replied, “Our Crosswise River Star Domain is one of the ordinary star domains in the Twin Horn Galaxy. The Twin Horn Galaxy has plenty of star domains and the biggest star domain is called the Tiger Imperial Star Domain. The galaxy-class Swordsmen Guild is located in the Tiger Imperial Star Domain’s Sword Star City. That place is a gathering of sword dao heaven lords and there are countless sword dao saint lords. In the center of the Sword Star City, there is a Sword Pool and it has existed since ancient times. It has absorbed innumerable sword intents. When a sword dao saint lord enters it, they can use the countless sword intents to temper their own sword intent and allow the sword dao to ascend.”
“The Sword Pool sounds like something great!” Li Fuchen’s eyes lit up.
Reading thousands of sword dao manuals would never be as useful as to experience thousands of sword intents. He was determined to enter the Sword Pool.
“When is the Sword Saint Meet going to be hosted?” Li Fuchen asked.
The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord laughed and replied, “In another three years.”
“Three years huh? That is rather long.”
It was unknown when it started. Li Fuchen felt that time was like flowing water that would flow by unconsciously.
Once he became a heaven lord, thousands of years must also pass by without him noticing.
…
After staying in Divine Leaf City for a few months, Werewolf Li Fuchen left.
An extremely spacious place was required to familiarize with the darkness energy and to excavate innate abilities. The Divine Leaf City was obviously not suitable.
A few dozen light years away from the Divine Leaf City, there was a ruin of stars. Werewolf Li Fuchen sat on one of the dilapidated stars.
Buzz!
Buzz!
Buzz!
Waves of darkness energy spread out in all directions. Apart from the dilapidated star under his body, everything in the surroundings were slowly corroded into black substance by the darkness energy and they started to float away.
All of a sudden, Werewolf Li Fuchen opened his eyes.
“Dark Moon Claw!”
With a wave of the claw, the black claw ripped out a deep wound in the void and it wouldn’t heal for a long time.
As compared to before, the Dark Moon Claw was much easier to control.
From the start, before Werewolf Li Fuchen progressed into a heaven lord, the Dark Moon Claw’s darkness energy was too scattered. With a wave of the claw, the entire place would be trapped in darkness. It might look intimidating, but when facing a heaven lord of similar strength, it would be useless. Right now, if the Dark Moon Claw was clawed on a heaven lord of the same level, a gigantic wound would be produced.
“Dark Blood Claw!”
After executing a claw strike, Werewolf Li Fuchen followed up with another claw attack. It was a dark red claw that was stunning to the sight and it felt as though the universe was dripping with blood.
It was the combination of Blood Moon Claw and Dark Moon Claw. It contained the ripping power and darkness power.
When struck by the claw, the victim wouldn’t just suffer from the constant ripping force, they would also suffer the corrosion of the darkness energy.
Of course, the amount of energy exhausted to execute this claw was 100 times more than the Dark Moon Claw. It was considered a heaven lord kill move…
As the Sword Saint Meet was near, several sword dao saint lords rushed back to the Crosswise River Star Domain.
They had been training outside for this moment.
“I wonder which four can win in this Sword Saint Meet?”
“The previous time was the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord, the Sacred Heart Sword Saint Lord, the Heartless Sword Saint Lord, and the Black River Sword Saint Lord. This time, it is probably going to be them again.”
“It might not be the case. 10,000 years have passed and no one knows what happened. The other unparalleled sword dao saint lords wouldn’t let the top four spots get taken over so easily.”
“That is true. The Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess is also getting more limelight recently. She will probably make it to the top four.”
Most of the sword dao saint lords rushed back to witness the sword arts of unparalleled sword dao saint lords. Only a minority was here for the Sword Saint Meet.
As days passed by, the incidents that involved Li Fuchen were ultimately spread out.
“There is actually another unparalleled sword dao saint lord. It seems like this year’s Sword Saint Meet is more intense.”
“A newly progressed unparalleled sword dao saint lord wouldn’t be able to cause a commotion right?”
“Didn’t you hear it from the Thunderclap Sword Saint Lord and the Blast Wind Sword Saint Lord? The Primary Extreme Sword Saint Lord repelled the giant spirit saint lord and the Flame Destruction Demon Liege.”
“It is not counted if he used the supreme rate artifact sword. During the Sword Saint Meet, no one is allowed to use the supreme rate artifact sword.”
No one else knew about the sparring matches between Li Fuchen, the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lord and also the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord. Therefore, everyone’s assumption of Li Fuchen was still at the beginning the stage.
“If these people knew about the Primary Extreme Sword Saint Lord’s strength, their jaws would drop.”
The Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess smiled when hearing the statement.
The martial stage arena was filled with people.
After venturing outside for so many years, I want everyone to witness my strength level.
“Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord, please teach me.”
In the middle of the martial stage, two figures stared at each other.
The two figures were rather famous. The challenger was a pinnacle sword dao saint lord in the Swordsmen Guild. He was called Slash Wind Sword Saint Lord. He might not have high hopes in shining greatly in the Sword Saint Meet, but his strength must not be underestimated.
As the Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord, he was even more famous. He was an unparalleled sword dao saint lord and it was unknown why he would accept the challenge.
“Make your move then!” The Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord nodded.
“Thousand Swords Slice!”
The Slash Wind Sword Saint Lord immediately used his signature move as thousands of sword shadows were all slicing at the Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord.
The Shadow Stalk Sword Saint felt his body losing weight. It seemed like they had lost their true body. Thousands of sword shadows flew across his body and didn’t injure him at all.
“Incredible, the Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord is indeed incredible.”
Everyone was shocked, the Slash Wind Sword Saint Lord was a pinnacle sword dao saint lord after all. If they couldn’t attack the Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord, what was there to fight for?
“Wind Cleave, Sea Slash!”
The Slash Wind Sword Saint Lord yelled out and burst out with his kill move.
The sword intent was already close to becoming a quasi-supreme rate sword move. Once there was an intent of primal chaos and one would be able to progress into an unparalleled sword dao saint lord.
“It is useless.” The Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord shook his head and allowed the sword qi to pass through his body and he was unscathed.
“I lost.”
The Slash Wind Sword Saint Lord didn’t make any more move as he let out a bitter laugh.
If attacks couldn’t hit the target, what was there to fight?
“Incredible, the Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord was definitely going to make it to the top four rankers.”
“More or less. He is incredible.
Everyone who watched the show was cheering with excitement.
“I have already connected the source power and I will not miss another opportunity.” When hearing the discussions around, the Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord said to himself.
