Chapter 147: The Sword Demon King, the Great Terror in the Dark
Under the spotlight.
The sword demon came slowly.
The scenery of the Sunset Sword Sect is magnificent, with silver waterfalls flowing. Since the rise of the Sun-Chasing Sword King, the sect has risen at an extremely rapid speed and has already become the world's number one sword holy land. It contains many holy places such as the Sword Burial Pool and the Sword King Peak.
In the past.
The Sunset Sword Sect seldom receives outsiders.
But now that the Sword Demon Challenge is a grand event, they naturally cannot show their weakness and allow many warriors to watch from the sidelines. Everyone marvels at the strength of the Sunset Sword Sect while looking forward to the upcoming battle.
No matter what the Sword Demon thinks.
Now, the Sun-Chasing Sword King is the highest ranked swordsman in the open.
Fifth on the Heavenly List!
This is the peerless strong man who truly stands at the top of the Great Flame. This is still true even if those old monsters who have hidden themselves in the world are included.
The Sword Demon stood under the Sword King Peak. His dark pupils looked over there and ripples appeared slightly. He sensed that there was an extremely powerful sword intent hidden there. If he guessed correctly, the person should be walking on a similar path as himself.
His fighting spirit rose as he realized that the Sun-Chasing Sword King was stronger than he had imagined.
The sword intent soared into the sky, sweeping across the clouds. An invisible vortex was gathering. Countless people were terrified by the devilish sword intent, especially those who had been watching every battle since the Sword Demon was born. They were extremely excited.
They are the loyal fans of the Sword Demon, and they can clearly see that the Sword Demon is even stronger than when he was first born.
This also completely confirmed everyone's speculation that the Sword Demon came into the world this time to test his sword on the strongest people in the world, in order to reach the supreme realm.
All the members of Sunset Sword Sect gathered at Sword King Peak.
They were shocked and bowed their heads in unison, shouting:
"Please come out, old ancestor!"
Countless eyes were focused on the Sword King Peak. This Sword King Peak also had many mysterious legends. It was said that this was the place where the Sun-Chasing Sword King attained enlightenment on the sword. Originally, it was just an ordinary mountain, but over time, every flower, grass, tree and stone were imbued with the powerful sword intent, and thus it was called the Sword King Peak.
In the past, people were not sure whether this legend was deliberately exaggerated by the Sunset Sword Sect to enhance its own reputation.
But what we saw today.
I know that I and others are superficial.
As the Sunset Sword Sect and others shouted together, everyone saw that the originally silent Sword King Peak seemed to come alive. Lines of sword intent rose into the air and gathered into shape. It was magnificent, like a huge sun, which was jaw-dropping.
A faint voice sounded:
"Everyone, please leave."
Everyone looked intently and saw a figure facing the Sword Demon. The old man had eyes and brows like swords, and a majestic figure. Just standing there casually gave people a sense of swallowing mountains and rivers. He was able to use "Chasing the Sun" as his name, so he was certainly not an ordinary person.
The Sun-Chasing Sword King looked at the Sword Demon opposite him, his eyes fell on the hilt of the sword at his waist with caution.
He sighed softly:
"The world is truly full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. First, there was an unheard-of Heavenly Sword Master, and now you have appeared out of nowhere, invincible. I'm afraid your sword is almost ready."
Everyone was surprised.
The Sun-Chasing Sword King also mentioned the True Man of Heavenly Sword, and his words seemed to show special respect for him.
The Sword Demon spoke slowly, his voice a little hoarse:
"Not even close. You're not bad either."
The Sun-Chasing Sword King laughed loudly, feeling the joy of having met a close friend.
"How about we decide the outcome in three moves?"
"good."
The Sword Demon's voice was still as calm as ever, but everyone was surprised. Since he was born, the Sword Demon had hardly spoken, except for a few words after the battle with the Divine Wind Sword Master. But now, before the battle even started, he was already communicating calmly with the Sun-Chasing Sword King, which showed how much he valued the Sun-Chasing Sword King.
Everyone was secretly looking forward to it.
Their eyes widened and they even slowed down their breathing, fearing that they would disturb the battle between the two peerless masters.
In an instant.
The situation is changing.
The Sun-Chasing Sword King stretched out his hand and pointed, and a majestic sword intent condensed and turned into a bright sun hanging high in the sky. Even though they were far away, everyone could feel the astonishing sense of oppression. All things in the world, even if they were sacred mountains, great peaks, ancient rivers, and deep seas, could not compare to the majesty and endlessness of the sun.
The name of the Sun-Chasing Sword King is Sun-Chasing, which does not mean he should chase the sun like Kuafu. Instead, it means he should chase his own sword intent which is as vast and boundless as the sun.
As soon as he made a move at this moment, countless people were shocked. This kind of sword intent was rare in the world. The Sun-Chasing Sword King had not made a move for a long time, and it was obvious that he had made progress.
The sword demon's dark pupils began to ripple, his fighting spirit rose in his heart, and he gently stroked the hilt of the sword.
The terrifying demonic nature was rising and sweeping, and the Sword Demon seemed to have transformed into a demonic sword. Some people recognized that this was the peerless sword that defeated the Divine Wind Sword Master, the Human Demon Sword!
With just one move, the two peerless masters were able to pull far ahead of the others.
Then everyone understood.
The top five most powerful people on the Heavenly Man List have already reached different realms, far exceeding them.
The bright sun descended from the sky, bringing with it tremendous pressure, while the pitch-black devil sword went against the current, with the invincible spirit to destroy everything.
Like oil cooking over a raging fire.
Head-numbing sizzling sounds were heard from all over the void. The Great Sun was about to devour the Demonic Sword, and the Demonic Sword was about to destroy the Great Sun. The terrifying sword intent and knife intent were both contained within it. If even the slightest fluctuation leaked out, it would be enough to destroy the Sunset Sword Sect.
But the strange thing is that the two are just dissolving each other, but there is no extra fluctuation overflowing.
A moment later.
The big sun and the devil sword disappeared together, and thousands of winds and clouds swept by. Everyone was shocked. This was the first ruthless person who could be on par with the Sword Demon. Everyone in the Sunset Sword Sect cheered in their hearts and had great respect for their ancestor.
But the Sun-Chasing Sword King's expression was slightly complicated.
Only he knew that he had lost the fight just now. Although the loss was not much, it was still a loss. The opponent's realm in the way of the sword was obviously higher than his, and the magic sword's sword intent was even stronger than his own Sun-Chasing Sword Intention.
He took a deep breath and said:
"It seems that I underestimated you."
"I have been meditating for 160 years and now have the most powerful sword. Please appreciate it."
There was a fighting spirit in his eyes.
Before, I was thinking of deciding the outcome in three moves, but now it seems that there is no need for that. It will just be a waste of time, so I might as well just do it.
"That's right!" The Sword Demon's hoarse voice sounded, and his hair flew wildly in an instant. Everyone could see that his posture was completely different from before, and he obviously regarded the Sun-Chasing Sword King as a completely different opponent.
The Sun-Chasing Sword King laughed loudly towards the sky.
Along with the smile, the Sword King Peak behind him suddenly shone brightly, and the flowers, trees, flying sand and rocks on it all seemed to come alive. Astonishing sword intent burst out from all things. The scene was so horrifying that everyone was stunned.
"Everything can be a sword? This is the highest realm of swordsmanship! Legend has it that this is the realm of the Sword Saint. Could it be that the Sun Chasing Sword King has reached this level?"
Someone's hands and feet were trembling as he pointed out the mystery in it in shock, which immediately caused an uproar among the crowd.
The Sword Demon also stared intently.
He saw the mystery, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he was eager to try.
The Sun Chasing Sword King's laughter spread all around, and he said openly:
"I have been sitting in Jianwang Peak for 160 years. Although I cannot glimpse the supreme sword realm, I have made some small gains. However, I relied on the home advantage. Please don't blame me."
Everyone seemed to be thinking about something.
It can be seen that the Sun-Chasing Sword King's "Everything Can Become a Sword" is not complete, and it relies on the Sword King Peak. This place is influenced by his sword intent day after day, so that the flowers, plants and trees can all give rise to sword intent.
But no matter what, this is a realm that is difficult for swordsmen in the world to reach.
now.
Countless sword intentions gathered on the sun, making it even brighter and several times stronger than before.
The Sun-Chasing Sword King had an extremely serious expression, his entire body had been wrapped in the sun, as if he had been transformed into the sun. Only loud laughter could be heard coming from him. He didn't care about winning or losing, he was just happy that he had an equally matched opponent today and he could go all out.
The Sword Demon brushed the hilt of the sword at his waist. He took off the "block of iron" for the first time, and there was less than half the width of his palm left. He raised the "sword" and chopped down. The sound was extremely demonic.
"This sword is called the Heavenly Demon."
He has three swords: Human Demon, Earth Demon, and Sky Demon.
Now, facing the sword of the Sun-Chasing Sword King that took one hundred and sixty years to produce, the Earth Demon Sword was unable to cope with it, so he used the Sky Demon Sword.
In an instant.
Everything was silent, and there seemed to be endless sword intent erupting in the void, making the demonic nature of the sword even more profound. The invisible vortex distorted everything, and the figure of the Sword Demon had already merged into it. The terrifying might overwhelmed the Sunset Sword Sect.
All the onlookers were trembling, as if the end of the world had come before their eyes.
The sun was hanging in the sky, and every ray of light was a terrifying sword intent. The devil's sword slashed out, distorting the void, as if a demonic world was born, ready to devour everything. No sword intent or light seemed to be able to escape this terrible cage.
Both are growing larger.
Cover up everything.
Countless people were horrified and instinctively widened their eyes. At this moment, even the fans of Tianjian Zhenren couldn't help but doubt whether Tianjian Zhenren was really as good as the two people in front of them. They had witnessed the magnificent scene of the thirty-six heavenly swords flying across the sky, but they felt that they were not as good as the Great Sun and the Demonic Sword in front of them.
The dark vortex engulfed the sun, just like a heavenly dog swallowing the sun.
The world fell into darkness.
Everyone closed their eyes and could only feel the aftermath passing through their surroundings, making them shiver.
finally.
All the fluctuations dissipated, and everyone looked far away, and saw that the Sun-Chasing Sword King was still standing there, while the Sword Demon was about to turn around and leave.
"What happened? Did the Blade Demon lose?"
This thought just occurred to everyone.
Sun Chasing Sword King showed a bitter smile on his face and shook his head helplessly:
"Your swordsmanship is the best in the world. Even with the help of Sword King Peak, you still lose. I am inferior to you."
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone was in uproar, and the Sunset Sword Sect and others were even more heartbroken. It was obvious that the Sun-Chasing Sword King had lost. Although he was not as seriously injured and defeated as the previous ones, a loss was still a loss after all.
The sword demon paused, as if he was reminiscing:
"You are stronger than the man from 20 years ago. He only took half of my Heavenly Demon Sword."
Everyone was shocked.
Who could that person from twenty years ago be? It must be the former third on the Heavenly Human List, Wuwei Ke!
Only when these secrets came out of the Sword Demon's mouth did they realize that Wuwei Ke was unable to take even half of the Heavenly Demon Sword and died at the Sword Demon's hands, while now Sun-Chasing Sword King took the sword intact. Although he was defeated, it was obvious who was superior.
The Sun-Chasing Sword King just sighed.
He has no intention of comparing himself too much with others.
"Next, are we going to fight with Master Tianjian?" he asked curiously.
He already knew the name of Tian Jian Zhenren. As a fellow peerless swordsman, he knew from the Zhenwu Sword Monument that Tian Jian Zhenren was no simple man and was not inferior to himself. As for the Sword Demon in front of him, there was no need to say more. He had just been defeated by him. Even he was looking forward to the battle between these two peerless masters.
The sword demon nodded and said:
"Yes, I was at Zhenwu Mountain before, and I was unsure about his sword intent."
Sun Chaser Sword King's eyes lit up: "Okay, I'll come and watch the battle then."
The questions and answers between the two powerful men caused waves of shock in everyone's heart. The previous mystery was finally revealed. The Sword Demon really had been to Zhenwu Mountain first, and when the Sun-Chasing Sword King said he wanted to watch the battle, the expectations were raised to the extreme.
The sword demon nodded.
Leaving in the air.
The Sun-Chasing Sword King took back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
He originally wanted to ask the Sword Demon if he had a more powerful sword, because he sensed that there was something unfulfilled in the previous Demon Sword, but in the end he did not ask. Although he and the Sword Demon had some mutual admiration, this ultimately involved other people's secrets.
Furthermore.
If there was a stronger sword, perhaps we would be able to see it right away.
It is not difficult to hear from the Sword Demon's words just now that even after witnessing his most powerful sword, the Sword Demon still feels that Master Tianjian is stronger than himself.
He was not unconvinced, but was even more curious about the Master Tianjian, whom he had never met before.
Watch the sword demon leave.
What happened today spread throughout the world at lightning speed.
The Sun-Chasing Sword King was defeated, and the Sword Demon won again!
At this point.
No one can match the might of the Sword Demon. Some people even think that even General Yanwu and Old Man Tingfeng may not be able to defeat him.
The sword demon becomes stronger and stronger as the battle goes on, and now only one person is left.
Tianjian Zhenren.
He is also a peerless strong man who suddenly appeared. Although his previous record was extremely dazzling, he is now far inferior to the Sword Demon. After all, the Sword Demon has picked almost half of the Heavenly List, including several of the top ten strong men.
This final battle.
Extremely eye-catching.
Countless people flocked to Zhenwu Mountain, and even the three forces of the imperial court, the Demon Sect, and southern Xinjiang, which were fighting fiercely, turned their attention here. After all, this was almost the strongest battle under the Martial Saint. Although such an existence did not have the final say like the Martial Saint, it also had a huge influence.
Looking at the three forces, there are only two or three such strong people in each of them.
…
Under such a craze.
The disciples of the Zhenwu School were extremely busy. Just dealing with the warriors who flocked to Zhenwu City every day required a lot of energy, but they were extremely proud in their hearts, because these people came because of Zhenren Tianjian, and this was their honor.
All foreign affairs are left to Luo Wentian.
Ning Qi himself was calm and composed.
He only had to consider one thing, how much strength to use to defeat the sword demon.
"The situation of the Great Yan Martial Saint is unclear, so it's best not to be too ostentatious. We need to win, but not overwhelmingly. Just show the realm of sword intent." Ning Qi was a little daunted by the content on the silver page he got from Wu Jianghe.
The Demon Sect and the Martial Saint who is about to be born in Southern Xinjiang are certainly enemies, but the Martial Saint of Dayan may not be much better. If he was really the one who wiped out the Martial Saint Law of the World, then he would be delivering it to his doorstep.
If his combat power close to that of a Martial Saint were revealed in advance, it would cause unnecessary trouble.
Ning Qi felt that it would be most appropriate to use the combat power he had before breaking through the Heavenly Man Realm.
Shaking his head slightly and putting aside distracting thoughts, he did not continue to waste his energy on this matter, but instead thought about his own cultivation.
After entering the realm of heaven and man.
If you want to continue to grow, you naturally need to condense the three flowers of essence, energy and spirit.
"To condense the three flowers of essence, energy and spirit, that is, to temper the physical body to condense the flower of essence, to temper the qi to condense the flower of energy, and to temper the divine will to condense the flower of spirit."
"How to refine it? It is to resonate with the power of heaven and earth. It is somewhat similar to the Heaven and Earth Great Grinding Gang Tempering Method and the Soul Tempering Method I created before, but it is not as exquisite as my previous ones."
"But it is not easy to cultivate the three realms at the same time. That is why many people only cultivate a single realm. Even so, it takes ten or even dozens of years to make some progress. I have the foundation of the Heaven and Earth Great Grinding Secret Art, so my progress is naturally incomparable to that of ordinary people, but it is still very slow."
"According to this trend, when will I be able to achieve the Three Perfections?"
Ning Qi frowned slightly.
These days, in addition to sublimating the secret art of the unity of man and nature, he has been trying to cultivate to the realm of heaven and man. He improved the Heaven and Earth Grinding Method, which allowed him to refine his essence, energy and spirit at the same time, but his progress was still very slow.
This continues.
It may take seven or eight years to achieve perfection.
This speed is naturally dozens of times faster than that of others, but for Ning Qi, it is still too slow. Now the crisis in Southern Xinjiang and the Demon Sect has not been resolved yet, and he needs to improve his strength in the shortest possible time.
"When I was in the Gang Yuan Realm before, the reason why my Heaven and Earth Great Grinding Gang Tempering Method and Soul Tempering Method were able to make rapid progress was because I had come into contact with a higher level of power in advance. Now that I am using the power of heaven and earth to temper the Three Flowers, the effect is naturally not that good."
"In other words, I need a stronger 'power'?"
Ning Qi had flashes of inspiration in his mind, and various thoughts flashed by in a flash. After he entered the realm of heaven and man, his comprehension was further improved, and he had a goal in the blink of an eye.
"Heavenly Thunder Technique!"
"I have learned the Heavenly Thunder Method with the Heavenly Thunder Sword. I can draw the thunder from the sky to use for my own benefit. The power of the Heavenly Thunder is strong and overbearing. If I can fully control it to refine my spirit, the effect will definitely be outstanding. However, the effect of ordinary Heavenly Thunder may not be much better. If I want to be efficient, I have to go to the sky!"
Ning Qi exhaled lightly.
"The forbidden area of thunder in the sky is very scary, but if I only draw the thunder at the edge and don't break into it, there shouldn't be any problem. After all, my current strength is much stronger than before."
The more Ning Qi thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
He made up his mind.
After the secret art of the unity of man and nature has been sublimated and the strength has been further improved, you can try to draw the thunder from the sky to temper your essence, energy and spirit.
Thinking of this, he felt inexplicably relieved.
Recently, after he stepped into the realm of heaven and man, the more he sensed the power of heaven and earth, the more he felt that there was a great terror hidden in the dark. This situation had never been recorded in other books related to the realm of heaven and man, and he had never had this feeling when he used the secret technique of the unity of heaven and man to control the power of heaven and earth.
Ning Qi didn't know whether it was because his perception was too sharp, or because he was able to detect it because his power over heaven and earth now far exceeded that of other celestial beings.
But he knew that this was definitely not an illusion.
"If the Heavenly Man Realm cannot sense it, then the Martial Saint Realm should be able to sense it. Could this great terror in the dark have some connection with the Martial Saint Realm?"
Ning Qi couldn't guess.
But he thought that he had to become stronger as soon as possible.
