Chapter 292: What? Their Grand Elder Had Actually Lost
“This is impossible!”
Jian Wentian rejected the idea on the spot. No one knew better than him how difficult it was to become an Emperor.
This was not something that could be achieved just by relying on the accumulation of one’s cultivation base. The most important thing was the deepening of one’s comprehension and understanding of the Dao.
This was not something that could be achieved in a short period of time.
Before the ruins, his realm was even higher than Su Yun’s. Now that he had not broken through, there was no need to mention Su Yun.
However, her aura had clearly become stronger.
She must have had a fortuitous encounter at the thousand-foot cliff that allowed her to increase her realm. She should not be too far away from becoming a half-step Great Emperor.
As long as she was not a Great Emperor, it was fine. With his current realm, even a half-step great Emperor would not be able to take advantage of him.
Right now, the Desert Sword Sect’s aura was like the sun in the sky. In the entire eastern region, apart from the Heavenly Snow Palace, they had already accepted everyone as their subordinates. As long as they conquered the Heavenly Snow Palace, the Desert Sword Sect would be able to dominate the eastern region.
No one could stop them.
Jian Wentian looked at Su Yun. Right now, the most difficult person to deal with was Su Yun. Presumably, this was also the reason why Wen Jiandao summoned him here. As for Ye Changge and the others, he could not even be bothered to look at them.
They were merely ants without any cultivation.
Although it was somewhat strange for a man to appear in the Heavenly Snow Palace, since he did not pose any threat, he did not mind.
“Elder Su Yun, we haven’t met for a hundred years. I wonder how your cultivation and Dao arts are progressing. Why don’t we take this opportunity to have a Dao discussion?”
Jian Wentian spoke in a rather heroic manner.
Looking at the smiles between the two of them, those who did not know better would think that they were really just discussing Dao. However, those who knew the two sides understood that this battle determined the life and death of the great Desert Sword Sect.
If Jian Wentian was defeated, the great Desert Sword Sect would end up in a miserable state.
If Su Yun of the Snow Palace was defeated, the Heavenly Snow Palace would cease to exist.
The people of the great Desert Sword Sect did not think that the Heavenly Snow Palace would be able to win. In fact, they had already predicted that after the Heavenly Snow Palace lost, they would kneel down and beg for mercy.
However, what they did not know was that this battle had already ended. From the moment they stepped into the Heavenly Snow Palace, the outcome was already decided.
The Desert Sword Sect was about to suffer a crushing defeat!
In the plaza!
The expressions of the people from both camps were all different.
Looking at the two people who were fighting in the plaza, the Heavenly Snow Palace’s expression was calm, without the slightest hint of panic. They were even looking forward to what would happen if Jian Wentian, who was regarded as a god by the Desert Sword Sect, lost.
On the other side, the Desert Sword Sect was looking at the Heavenly Snow Palace provocatively, as if they could already see the Heavenly Snow Palace kneeling on the ground, crying and begging for mercy.
Su Yun was no match for their grand elder at all. The reason why she continued to fight was to destroy the morale of the Heavenly Snow Palace and make them completely despair.
However, compared to the other disciples, Wen Jiandao’s thoughts were different.
He did not look at the scene immediately. Instead, he secretly observed the people of the Heavenly Snow Palace. For some reason, he felt uneasy. He did not know where this feeling of unease came from, however, this unease lingered in his heart.
What was going on?
Why were the people from the Snow Heavenly Palace so calm? If it was said that Su Yun’s appearance gave them confidence, this was understandable. However, with the appearance of their grand elder, this confidence should have been shattered.
Unable to figure it out, he continued to pay attention to the crowd.
“Elder Su Yun, please!”
Looking at Elder Su Yun’s figure, Jian Wentian cupped his hands.
No matter what, although he did not know how much Su Yun’s strength had improved, her calm attitude made him admire her.
Even now, her expression did not change. Could it be that she really had some trump card?
Hmph!
Impossible!
She was no match for him a hundred years ago, and he still was not a hundred years later. Furthermore, he had obtained a sword Dao technique in the ruins, which could greatly increase his strength.
So what if Su Yun had become a half-step Great Emperor? In the end, she would still be defeated by him.
Then, his fingers were like knives, and a sword hum sounded. His aura swept out abruptly, causing the sky and earth to change color and the void to tremble.
This was the secret technique he had obtained from the ruins, the Void Sword Technique!
After successfully refining it, he could cut through the void,
“Please!”
Su Yun didn’t say anything else. She cupped her hands and performed the Ice Heart Technique.
The moment she released her energy, icy cold air swept out in all directions. Everyone could feel this cold air, and they felt as if they were in an ice cellar.
The person who could feel it the most was Jian Wentian. He was the closest to Su Yun, so he had to bear most of the icy cold air.
This…
His eyes were filled with shock.
This ice qi was actually able to slow down the circulation of his true essence. One had to know that his cultivation base had been tempered over and over again. Even before the battle had begun, he was already at a slight disadvantage.
However, he did not care. He was only half a step away from becoming a true Emperor, and the mere Su Yun was nothing in his eyes.
As he spoke, he circulated his true essence rapidly, and the spiritual energy in the world instantly surged over. A heavenly and earthly sword gradually condensed in front of him, and it charged toward Su Yun.
This attack carried a destructive power, and the void trembled as if it was about to shatter.
The people of the Desert Sword Sect were already on the edge of their seats when they saw such a fierce attack.
“The grand elder’s cultivation is indeed powerful. He can even make the void tremble. He’s probably not far from becoming a true Emperor!”
“That’s right. Our grand elder is the strongest. The mere Su Yun is no match for our elder.”
“The end of the Heavenly Snow Palace has already been decided. No one can avoid submitting to the hands of the great Desert Sword Sect.”
“At this moment, the entire eastern region is ours. The Desert Sword Sect is mighty, the first elder is mighty!”
Everyone was discussing animatedly. It was as if they had already seen Elder Su Yun’s defeat.
They saw the Heavenly Snow Palace submit and bow to their feet. Their sect dominated the entire eastern region. Wherever their sword intent pointed, they would dominate the world.
At this moment…
Facing this attack, Su Yun’s expression was calm. She merely waved her finger and an icy attack gradually condensed in front of her. It directly blasted towards this sword intent.
“Boom!”
An explosion rang out in the sky, and a shockwave shot out in all directions.
Some of the weaker cultivators immediately sent out their own magic treasures to resist this attack.
Smoke and dust rose up in the arena. The people of the Desert Sword Sect all watched nervously to see who would win and who would lose.
This was a crucial battle, and it represented the end of their dominance over the eastern region.
If they won, the Heavenly Snow Palace would be destroyed in an instant.
However, at this moment, when the dust settled, they were all stunned. Their eyes were filled with disbelief.
How was this possible?
The supreme elder that they had always called invincible had actually lost!
