Swoosh!

The long sword was illuminated by a blinding ray of light. The weapon resembled a shooting star that tore through the sky and penetrated the air as it rushed toward Ling Xiao at the speed of lightning!

Nobody could see the sword’s path, much less describe the way that this weapon looked like now!

The sword light nearly illuminated the entire continent.

As the crowd watched, they could only see a bright stretch of white light that appeared before Ling Xiao in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, Ling Xiao’s mental power was also condensed to its limit.

When a sky-shattering sound rang out, Ling Xiao extended two of his fingers.

Bam!

As if the sword had hit an air wall, Jian Wuque felt that he could not move his long sword forward at all. Then, he realized that Ling Xiao was already grasping the tip of his sword with two of his fingers.

The tip of the sword was only half an inch away from Ling Xiao’s throat.

“I’ve lost!”

Jian Wuque seemed slightly dejected, but he returned to his calm state soon after.

“You’re right, you lost, but you were this close to winning!” Ling Xiao spoke slowly while droplets of fresh blood trickled down his fingers and stained them.

Ling Xiao was secretly filled with emotions before a hint of admiration seeped through his gaze when he looked at Jian Wuque.

Aside from Ling Xiao, nobody else could understand how scary Jian Wuque’s sword was. The attack of Twinkling Seven Swords had always been fast, but it was even quicker and sharper because Jian Wuque had fully comprehended the seventh sword.

Since Ling Xiao had cultivated the Legendary Dragon’s Body, his physical body had reached a stage where it was incredibly sturdy. However, that piercing sword energy had still sliced through his fingers.

It would not have been so easy for Ling Xiao to defend himself from Jian Wuque’s sword if the latter had grasped the sword intent. On the contrary, Ling Xiao would have had to pay a very heavy price.

“Senior Brother Lin, I’ve been defeated, so the debt between us is settled.”

Jian Wuque faintly glanced at Lin Haoyu before he turned and left, completely ignoring the solemn look on Lin Haoyu’s face.

In Ling Xiao’s opinion, it seemed like Jian Wuque had freed himself. Jian Wuque’s entire body had become much cleaner as a burst of pure sword intent drifted out, allowing his back to stand much straighter now.

“Not bad! You’re a good successor!”

Ling Xiao nodded. He could sense that Jian Wuque was about to grasp a sword intent that he could soon call his own. When that happened, Jian Wuque’s combat power would be extremely terrifying.

“Good! Very good! Hahaha…”

Lin Haoyu was so furious that he burst out laughing. Although his heart was filled with dread because of Ling Xiao, his murderous intent simultaneously burned brighter.

Not only did Ling Xiao defeat Zuo Zhen and Jian Wuque, but he had even caused them to leave Lin Haoyu in the blink of an eye. These schemes of Ling Xiao’s terrified and infuriated Lin Haoyu at the same time.

“Release her!” Ling Xiao glanced coldly at Lin Haoyu as he spat out those two words.

“You want me to release her? That will be easy, as long as you can defeat me!”

Lin Haoyu took long strides forward while a powerful aura radiated from his body. His aura was like continuous ocean waves that were oppressively crashing toward Ling Xiao.

“Make your move!” Ling Xiao growled sternly with a flash of murderous look in his eyes.

Although Lin Haoyu disliked Ling Xiao, it was wrong for him to kidnap Xue Wei. After all, Lin Haoyu had no right to involve other people when he was merely upset with Ling Xiao. From this, it was obvious that Lin Haoyu was a petty and unscrupulous person.

There was only one word that crossed Ling Xiao’s mind in regards to people like him.

That word was “kill”!

Lin Haoyu’s fate had already been sealed today, no matter if he released Xue Wei or not.

At the same time, Ling Xiao turned to Liu Piaopiao and said telepathically, “Once I’ve attacked, you can charge into the palace and save Xue Wei. I don’t think these people can stop you because they’re just a bunch of True Qi Boundary scumbags!”

Liu Piaopiao was shocked, but she nodded.

Indeed, it would be fine for her to rush in and save Xue Wei because of her first tier Spiritualization Boundary cultivation.

“Little brat, I have to admit that you’re terribly reckless. You’ve merely achieved third tier True Qi Boundary cultivation, yet you’re trying to become Longevity Sect’s Saint? Why don’t you ask the sword in my hand if it agrees too!”

Lin Haoyu sneered coldly before he unsheathed a blue long sword. A dazzling and blinding burst of divine light twinkled as the sword released an aggressively cold light.

“It’s the Blue Ice Sword! Senior Brother Lin will definitely win if he uses that spirit tool!”

With a flash in his eyes, Ling Kun was instantly filled with enthusiasm.

The Blue Ice Sword was actually the sword that Lin Shan, the Grand Supreme Elder of Longevity Sect, used when he was younger. It was also forged with steel that had been frozen for a thousand years and melted azurite. Not only could this sword cut through metal as though it was mud, but it could also produce intense cold air.

With this Blue Ice Sword, Lin Haoyu was thirty percent stronger — strong enough that he could fight Dragon Tiger Boundary masters too.

“It’s no wonder you were so confident. You had a spirit tool with you all along! But weapons are merely objects while humans are living things. You may have a spirit tool, but that won’t change your destiny today!” Ling Xiao laughed snarkily as his eyes twinkled.

Ling Xiao’s ruthless gaze immediately noticed the blue long sword that Lin Haoyu was wielding. This sword was also a superior spirit tool that could naturally produce an explosive and powerful force when combined with Lin Haoyu’s ninth tier Spiritualization Boundary cultivation.

Although the Seven Stars to Moon Sword that Lin Haoyu cultivated was merely an Earthly level inferior martial arts, it was still one of the Longevity Sect’s martial arts.

Nonetheless, Ling Xiao was getting increasingly excited. Since he had crystallized his Sky Devouring Spiritual Seed and cultivated his Legendary Dragon’s Body, Ling Xiao wanted to test his combat power to witness the true extent of his strength.

Standing before him, Lin Haoyu was certainly the best training partner.

“Little brat, stop running your mouth!”

The cold light in Lin Haoyu’s gaze flashed. His Blue Ice Sword made a humming noise before a burst of sword energy quickly shot toward Ling Xiao.

Swoosh!

With a brief move of his feet, Ling Xiao had instantly moved ten feet towards the side. The blue sword energy immediately drilled a hole into the large rock in the distance and left behind blue-colored shards of ice.

Swish swish swish!

Lin Haoyu swung his sword a few more times. Supported by his intense True Qi, the Blue Ice Sword emitted a bright light before its sword energy shot into the void at an impressive momentum while giving off a bright glow.

However, since Ling Xiao had managed to leisurely and elegantly float away using his Longevity Footwork, Lin Haoyu’s sword energy could not land on his body at all.

“Your sword technique is so inferior compared to Jian Wuque! You should use the Seven Stars to Moon Sword. Otherwise, you won’t even stand a single chance!” Ling Xiao boldly insulted him before he sneered.

“Little brat, you’re courting death!”

It seemed like Lin Haoyu was truly enraged. The cold light in his gaze twinkled before the powerful True Qi around his body surged and spread everywhere. The Blue Ice Sword produced a dazzling and blinding light before it made a humming noise and quivered. Tiny specs of sword light in the air converged and surrounded the Blue Ice Sword as though they were forming a bright star.

Swoosh!

Lin Haoyu wielded his sword and rushed over like a shooting star that was still far, far away. He was moving at an extremely fast speed while emitting sharp energy that seemed to pierce through everything.

This star was merely the Seven Stars to Moon Sword that he had just learned. Once this Earthly level inferior martial arts was fully cultivated, the seven stars would turn into a full moon that would temporarily form a Full Moon Sword Domain. This weapon was extremely powerful and terrifying.

Indeed, this “star” was incredibly impressive. In terms of speed, it was probably slightly slower than Jian Wuque’s seventh sword that moved at the speed of light.

“Very good!”

A ray of light flashed in Ling Xiao’s eyes before he could feel a faint cold pressure that the sharp sword light produced.

However, when this sensation grew more intense, it also aroused the desire to fight in Ling Xiao’s heart.

Boom!

A frightening thunderclap echoed before the innate True Qi around Ling Xiao’s body seemingly exploded. A ray of dim gold-colored light was emitted in all four directions and a separate gold-colored light shot out from his punch, exploding in the sky like a bomb. After that, the light shot directly toward Lin Haoyu.
