Chapter Forty-Eight: Pure Sword Essence
Su Yang's sword technique shattered the barrier, a sight that caused the onlookers to retreat in terror.
Who could have imagined that the barrier set up by the Grandmaster would one day be broken by a Xiantian martial artist?
Only when they saw Xia Fengxing personally take action and dispel the countless sword shadows did everyone feel relieved.
At the same time, the gazes directed at Su Yang changed, and they all showed reverence.
Some people couldn't help but sigh.
Is Su Yang truly about to become invincible?
As the sun set, the light in the arena began to dim, but no one left, simply because they couldn't let go.
Unable to let go of the young emperor who will embark on the path of imperial power today!
With his aura reaching its peak, Su Yang was now invincible, dominating the world.
For these champions of the Tiger Ranking, facing him as an opponent must be an ordeal.
I was terrified, but I dared not admit defeat or back down. How could anyone not be afraid?
Even though he forced himself to suppress his fear and threw a punch at Su Yang, he still couldn't unleash his full strength.
As one side gains and the other loses, Su Yang becomes unparalleled and arrogant, while the other martial artists all become stepping stones for him.
After defeating twelve people in a row, Su Yang successfully entered the top three of the Tiger List!
"Dao Ancestor, it seems that Xu Wan's path to imperial power is complete. In this world, there will be no other prodigy who can rival her!"
Su Chen, sitting below the stage, couldn't help but admire him. Before becoming a king, he had already walked the path of an emperor, looking down on all the geniuses in the world. He was truly a peerless genius!
Perhaps so. However, the remaining two are different from the previous ones. If that little girl wants to achieve a state of being free of hostility, she will probably have to get past those two first.
Su Chen asked in surprise, "Is there something extraordinary about those two?"
The second-ranked person on the Tiger List possesses pure sword energy, but he has completely withdrawn it at the moment, so you cannot sense it.
The top-ranked member of the Tiger List possesses dragon blood within him, though it is diluted, it is undoubtedly the blood of a true dragon. His ancestors likely had a connection to that fallen true dragon.
The former was fine, but when it came to the latter, Taixu Ding's expression became solemn.
Although he already knew that a true dragon had fallen in this Xuan Yuan Realm, the Tai Xu Cauldron felt somewhat familiar with the dragon blood energy in Lin Wuya's body.
Why do I sense the aura of the Primordial Era on him? Could it be that he is the one who perished here? But the Primordial Era was an Extreme Dao Emperor Realm cultivator, protected by the Yang Chi Nine Dragon Spear; who could possibly kill him?
Taixu Ding was puzzled. He only felt that something had happened during the years he was asleep, something he was unaware of.
"The Dao Ancestor? The Dao Ancestor?"
Su Chen called out to the Taixu Cauldron several times in his mind, but seeing no response, he was helpless. He wanted to ask what pure sword essence was.
But Taixu Ding ignored him, so Su Chen could only obediently continue watching Su Yang's challenge match.
On the stage, Su Yang was looking at the man sitting cross-legged with surprise, his brows slightly furrowed.
He had been on the stage for quite some time, but his opponent had not moved, which made him somewhat wary.
Such a bizarre situation suggests that the other party is either mentally ill or a highly skilled individual.
Su Yang prefers the latter.
After thinking for a moment, Su Yang called out, "Hey, are you an expert?"
The martial artist did not answer, remaining seated cross-legged with his eyes closed, which made Su Yang purse his lips.
He's now starting to think the other person is mentally ill.
With his hand raised and sword pointing upwards, a sharp sword aura shot out. If the opponent were truly insane, this sword strike would be enough to kill him.
But clearly, it's absolutely impossible for someone to be among the top two on the Tiger List.
When Su Yang's sword energy struck, the martial artist made no move before Su Yang's sword energy vanished without a trace.
Only then did the martial artist slowly open his eyes.
The moment the martial artist opened his eyes, although he was still sitting cross-legged, his aura changed instantly.
As he opened his eyes, two sharp sword intents, as tangible as real swords, pierced straight into Su Yang's mind.
Having consumed the Emerging Water Green Spirit Lotus, Su Yang's divine soul was powerful, and the sword intent that penetrated his mind had no effect on him.
But feeling the ultimate sword intent emanating from that martial artist, Su Yang was utterly astonished.
He also used a sword, so Su Yang was deeply moved by his experience.
The sword intent emanating from that cross-legged martial artist was extremely pure. How pure? It was as if he had nothing else but sword intent.
“Jian Yan has only cultivated sword intent throughout his life, without practicing sword techniques. His sword intent and true essence can be said to be pure to the extreme. Even I dare not say that I can definitely defeat him. Yang Shu, you have to be careful.”
Standing on the last arena, watching the two facing off, Lin Wuya spoke calmly.
As the top of the Tiger List, Lin Wuya surpasses other geniuses, and his strength is not weak.
A martial artist who receives such a critique from him must possess extraordinary qualities.
"It's finally Jianyan's turn. I wonder if Yang Shu can succeed in raising his heart."
"It's hard to say. Although Yang Shu is a genius, his swordsmanship is also strong. In fact, if he weren't only twenty-four years old, he would probably have entered the Dragon List long ago. How could he still be second on the Tiger List?"
"That's true, and there are rumors that the other party has a connection with the Azure Sword King, but we don't know if it's true or not."
"If the news is true, wouldn't today be a battle between the younger generation of kings? This is of great significance!"
That martial artist named Jianyan was quite famous.
With his amazing hearing, Su Yang could naturally hear the conversations of others on the audience stage.
Looking at Jian Yan, Su Yang could indeed sense the extremely pure sword intent within the other's body.
Even Su Yang was somewhat surprised that his sword intent could be so pure.
"I heard that you don't practice swordsmanship or martial arts, but only cultivate sword intent your whole life. I wonder how effective that is?"
Having never traveled this route before, Su Yang was naturally curious and asked a question.
Jian Yan reacted this time, remaining silent for a moment before saying, "You also use a sword, so you can experience it for yourself. However, my sword is a killing sword, so I cannot guarantee that it won't hurt you."
Jian Yan spoke calmly, without the slightest emotion.
However, these words left Su Yang somewhat silent.
Because he discovered that this person really did like to show off.
Whose sword cannot kill? No one's sword can kill!
He touched the ring in his hand, and a cyan spirit sword appeared in his hand.
It was none other than Xu Wan's Green Bamboo Sword.
Having a spirit sword in one's hand is not the same as not having one.
Even though the Green Bamboo Sword is only a level three sword, it can still make Su Yang's sword moves three times more powerful.
He glanced at the long sword hanging on Jian Yan's back and gestured for the other to take the sword. In his life, Su had never liked to do things like sneak attacks or taking advantage of others.
Moreover, since it's a contest of who has the stronger swordsmanship, it's only meaningful to defeat the opponent at their strongest point!
In contrast, Jian Yan glanced at the cyan spirit sword in Su Yang's hand.
Although he liked to boast, he knew Su Yang was incredibly strong in person, so he didn't dare to be arrogant.
I didn't say anything; I didn't use any presumptuous words from Kenneki.
Jian Yan touched the ring on his finger, and then an ancient longsword appeared in his hand.
However, he did not use the inferior iron sword he carried on his back.
