However, the Taiyi Sword Emperor was ultimately a figure of the Great Emperor level. Although he was now only an avatar, or rather a projection of his divine thoughts, he still possessed great magnanimity.
He didn't show any displeasure; instead, he became more determined to fight.
"If you're going to test your sword on me, then you'd better be able to withstand it."
As soon as he finished speaking, a massive sword intent rose up.
A light flashed between the brows of the Taiyi Sword Emperor, and suddenly an eye appeared, with terrifying pressure materializing and pressing outwards.
A thousand-foot-long sword domain, formed by his supreme swordsmanship, enveloped him and Li Ming within it.
Li Ming's expression changed drastically; he could clearly sense that the opponent's strength had suddenly surged.
It was as if their previous battles were just a warm-up!
The other party's cultivation level was no different from his.
But this single sword pressure was enough to prevent a sword cultivator below the Great Perfection of Swordsmanship from drawing his sword.
Li Ming had no doubt that even sword cultivators at the Unity Realm would have to temporarily avoid the limelight if their swordsmanship had not reached a certain level.
It seems he underestimated the emperor's strength.
That's true. In terms of talent alone, the Taiyi Sword Emperor is absolutely outstanding even in the long history of the world.
Moreover, he is passionate about swordsmanship, and his methods are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Even without inheriting the legacy of his predecessors, he has carved out his own path of swordsmanship by relying solely on the sword in his hand.
In the distance, the Taiyi Sword Emperor's eyes flashed with sword light, and in an instant, his body shone with boundless brilliance.
Amidst the astonished gazes of countless people, a surging, towering sword aura swept across the sky, slashing towards Li Ming!
When the sword unites with yin and yang, and the mind and will become one, all paths can be slain!
For a moment, the crowd of spectators outside the Sword Tower erupted in an uproar.
Even someone as powerful as the Sword Sect Master was excited.
Seeing their patriarch use the Taiyi Sword Sect's signature sword technique, how could they not be excited?
This is the Taiyi Sword Technique. Even though he is only using an incomplete version of the Taiyi Sword Technique at this moment, its power is still not to be underestimated in his hands.
Under the force and intent of this sword, Li Ming's aura was completely suppressed.
Even the countless golden lights surrounding him were dimming at a visible speed.
Those sword shadows covered the sky and were incredibly powerful!
Seeing this, the Sword Sect Master on the stands outside the Sword Tower shook his head and said:
"Who is the Taiyi Ancestor? Unless Li Ming can unleash his full power, it will be difficult for him to borrow this sword."
"If we don't admit defeat, we're likely to suffer a crushing defeat."
Everyone who heard this seemed to take it for granted.
No matter what, Li Ming is an "outsider," while the Taiyi Sword Emperor is their ancestor. They hope that their sword sect will produce an unparalleled genius who can surpass their ancestor and lead the Taiyi Sword Sect to greater glory, but they do not want an outsider to surpass him.
Just when everyone thought Li Ming was out of options.
With a startling clang of the sword, Li Ming launched his attack.
He reacted quickly, realizing that the other party was serious and had no intention of playing "house" with him anymore. He also activated all his true energy and used the Emperor's Sword Technique, the third sword of the Nine Swords of the Primordial Beginning.
This is the strongest sword move he can currently use. Although he had comprehended all of the Nine Swords of Tai Shi before, he could only use the first two perfectly at his level, and even the third one was a bit difficult.
This is only because his physique, true essence, and blood qi are all far superior to those of other cultivators at the same level; otherwise, he would not have been able to unleash this sword strike at all!
"boom!"
In a fraction of a second, the sword's momentum, intent, and energy merged into one, transforming into a golden sword light that collided with the overwhelming sword shadows.
Li Ming's advantage lies in his experience.
It's not that he has extensive practical experience, but rather his experience in swordsmanship.
The Great Emperor's Sword Techniques he learned were built on the shoulders of giants!
No matter how brilliant the Taiyi Sword Emperor was, it was impossible for him to create a technique stronger than the Great Emperor's sword moves at the Heaven and Earth Realm.
boom!
With a series of thunderous explosions, the two attacks collided violently, unleashing a terrifying storm of sword energy. The endless starry sky seemed to burst into flames, and everything turned to ashes.
Their true strength far exceeds what can be measured by their apparent cultivation levels; this is what it means to be a true prodigy.
Countless sword lights shattered, engulfing the area where the two were.
Ye Lin stared intently at the area shrouded in sword light. He was extremely worried about Li Ming's situation. After all, Li Ming was the Taiyi Sword Emperor, a legendary figure that countless people in the sword world had heard about since childhood. Many people probably wouldn't have the courage to fight him!
Not only Ye Lin, but countless eyes were fixed on that area.
I want to know who won.
The people of Taiyi Sword Sect had mixed feelings and were filled with unease.
That was their ancestor. Even if it was just an avatar or a thought, it couldn't represent the true Taiyi Sword Emperor, but it could still prove something.
If Li Ming, this outsider, loses, that would be fine.
If they win, wouldn't that prove that Li Ming's talent is even stronger than that of the Taiyi Sword Emperor?
At the very least, Li Ming at this time was stronger than the Taiyi Sword Emperor!
Inside the Sword Tower, in a mysterious space at the top floor, a figure was also staring intently at the battle in the starry sky.
Boom!
At this moment, the Milky Way trembled, and a terrifying shockwave erupted from the area where the sword light surged, the explosion resounding for thousands of miles across the Milky Way.
Countless sword energies dissipated.
Li Ming and Taiyi Sword Emperor faced each other from afar.
At this moment, countless people felt their hearts leap into their throats, not daring to utter a single word or even breathe too loudly, for fear of not seeing the final outcome.
Ye Shuang was extremely nervous at this moment and asked, "Father, will Lord Li win?"
Ye Lin didn't turn around: "I don't want to talk."
"..."
Wang Chen wanted to say something, but he shut his mouth when he saw this.
Inside the Sword Tower.
"call……"
Li Ming let out a soft breath.
Pale golden blood kept flowing from the corner of his mouth, and his breath continued to decline.
"Still can't do it?"
Ye Lin also witnessed this scene and felt somewhat down.
The members of the Taiyi Sword Sect breathed a sigh of relief.
Then I felt a pang of shame.
After all, to have achieved this level already surpasses countless others.
Even if someone else were in that position, they wouldn't dare say they could do a better job.
"etc……"
Suddenly, someone exclaimed.
They could see that the protective sword energy surrounding the Taiyi Sword Emperor shattered layer upon layer.
Finally, the sword in his hand, formed from true essence, shattered.
Taiyi Sword Emperor smiled:
"sharp."
"If it were you, your future achievements would certainly not be less than mine."
Li Ming could tell that the Taiyi Sword Emperor was sincere when he said those words.
Even in his current state of mind, he couldn't help but feel a little arrogant.
If an ordinary person said this, he naturally wouldn't take it seriously.
But this man is the number one emperor in the sword world, the founder of the Taiyi Sword Sect, and a former leader in swordsmanship. The old man's praise of him is incredibly valuable!
If the people of the Taiyi Sword Sect heard this, they would be green with envy!
It is no exaggeration to say that if a disciple received this evaluation in the era of the Taiyi Sword Emperor, he would definitely be hailed as a god by countless people.
Just as he finished speaking, the figure of the Taiyi Sword Emperor became blurry and then dissipated into a wisp of green smoke.
Seeing this, Li Ming was in a much better mood.
This battle was indeed quite dangerous.
To challenge a Sword Emperor in his strongest domain seemed a bit presumptuous in retrospect.
If it were a contest against the true Taiyi Sword Emperor, the outcome would be quite uncertain.
The two were roughly equal in their swordsmanship skills.
But Li Ming has another crucial advantage.
That means he can become stronger, while the other party is ultimately an illusory existence, whose strength has long been limited to this level and cannot be improved further.
At the last moment, he had a sudden inspiration.
He took another step forward in the realm of swordsmanship, entering the realm of 91% swordsmanship.
Don't underestimate this extra half-tenth.
But there's a saying that goes something like that.
The higher the path, the more boundless it becomes.
