The once-renowned Martial Artist, Lu Xinting, the ‘Glowing Body’ of the Chimei True Heritage, who held the status of Heavenly Man and fought against the Refining God Heavenly Man’s prodigy, now looked somewhat like a clown in the eyes of the other martial artists, venting his rage impotently.
On the other hand, Xu Yan portrayed a calm and composed attitude, standing arrogantly with his hands crossed behind his back, as if he were looking down on a furious locust.
The Second Elder of the Chimei Sect killed the Martial Artist who unabashedly expressed his feelings. Although the remaining martial artists dared not speak out, they were thinking the same.
Even the Refining God Martial Artists from the Spirit Sect’s noble families had similar suspicions.
Zhu Liang, the Sect Master of the Yushen Sect, and the others also thought it was absurd. They dared not reveal any trace of their emotions and instead showed a grave expression.
Does Xu Yan’s arrogance indicate that he has something to back him up?
Doesn’t the prodigy, Lu Xinting, of the Chimei True Heritage, the ‘Glowing Body’ prove to be inferior to Xu Yan?
No!
Absolutely impossible!
Xu Yan is merely putting up a show, pretending to be arrogant.
“Be careful, Xu Yan might be deceptive, and there might be a stronger opponent lying in ambush for Lu Xinting!”
Zhu Liang solemnly looked towards the Second Elder of the Chimei Sect.
“I’m keeping an eye.”
The Second Elder of the Chimei Sect replied coldly.
His Divine Soul strength scanned all four directions, and the range covered every part of the battlefield. No one could escape his surveillance!
If anyone dared to make a move and kill Lu Xinting, they would have to get through him first.
And he was confident because he had just recently reached the peak of the Refining God Heavenly Man!
“Xu Yan, you lowly vermin, daring to be so arrogant, die!”
Lu Xinting roared and hurled his battle-ax towards Xu Yan.
Xu Yan still had his hands crossed behind his back, maintaining a calm expression. Suddenly, with a rustling sound, in front of the appalled martial artists, grass, trees, and gravel began to fly upwards.
And they transformed into sharp swords.
All things under heaven and earth be my sword!
“What is this?”
“I don’t know!”
Boom!
In the shocked view of the martial artists, the surrounding grass and trees uprooted, transforming into swords. The sword light illuminated all directions.
“Watch closely, what the Sword Dao is all about!” Xu Yan said arrogantly.
His hands were still crossed behind his back. On either side, there were swords made out of grass and trees that were extraordinarily sharp.
Thousands of swords, like a flood, were shot towards Lu Xinting, who was attacking him!
“Ridiculous tricks!”
Lu Xinting cried out loudly. His golden glow was radiant, and his battle-ax swept across, countering the massive attack. Despite his dismissive words, he was actually shocked inside.
What kind of Sword Dao is this?
“Incredible, incredible! What kind of Sword Dao is this? No wonder he is so arrogant!” Cui Huayu exclaimed in surprise.
All the martial artists were so shocked that words eluded them.
At this moment, a thought seemed to occur to everyone: If I had this Sword Dao, I would also be arrogant!
“Grandfather, what kind of Sword Dao is this?” Yue’er looked at her grandfather in shock.
At this moment, the old man was already shocked. He opened his eyes wide, showing disbelief on his face.
“This is Sword Dao? Grass, trees, and gravel can all become swords? How is that possible?”
He had seen quite a few powerful Sword Dao practitioners, but none of them had this terrifying Sword Dao technique.
Turning everything into a sword?
Such a thing had never been heard of!
“Die!”
Lu Xinting burst out in rage but, regardless of how he activated his Cultivation Technique and stimulated his Glowing Body, he couldn’t break free from the flood of swords.
“This fellow, he must die!”
Zhu Liang and the others had expressions of fear on their faces.
If Xu Yan didn’t die, they would feel uneasy, and if there was going to be a death, it would certainly be them!
They must seize the opportunity to kill Xu Yan before he becomes too powerful!
The Second Elder of the Chimei Sect was shocked but didn’t immediately kill Xu Yan and had other ideas.
“Such a powerful Sword Dao, it’s a must to capture Xu Yan. This Sword Dao must belong to my Chimei Sect!”
He stepped forward, ready to make his move at any moment.
Lu Xinting was still in the fight. Although he hadn’t broken out from the flood of swords, he wasn’t in any immediately danger either.
Xu Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly when he noticed the Second Elder of the Chimei Sect’s movement. He sneered to himself, feeling that it was almost time.
He rose up into the air, looking at a not too distant small hill.
The hill wasn’t large, only about twenty feet high, and was a small stone mountain— the size was just right.
“When encountering a mountain, the mountain becomes a sword. Today, I will use this mountain as a sword to kill Lu Xinting and let the Ling Domain martial artists know what the real Sword Dao is!”
He raised his hand and beckoned towards the small hill.
The martial artists, upon seeing his gesture, couldn’t help but be taken aback. Was he going to uproot that small hill and hurl it on Lu Xinting?
Some people also came up with a far-fetched idea.
Was Xu Yan going to turn this mountain into a sword?
How could a mountain be turned into a sword?
Yue’er was staring wide-eyed, closely scrutinising Xu Yan’s every move. Upon seeing him beckoning at the small hill, she was at a loss for words.
“Can he turn the mountain into a sword? How can a mountain become a sword?”
The old man’s breathing became heavier, and his mind was filled with shock.
Cui Huayu had already come out of the small palace, muttering to herself, “This is incredible. This is unbelievable. Has another monstrous talent appeared in the Ling Domain?”
“Sword, rise!”
Xu Yan commanded in a low voice.
Boom!
Under the shocked gaze of the martial artists, the small hill ripped itself from the ground and flew towards the sky, transforming into a huge stone-gray sword in mid-air!
“All of you, observe carefully. This is the Sword Dao!”
Xu Yan looked at Lu Xinting, “It’s an honor for you to die under this sword!”
Lu Xinting was greatly startled, all of this was beyond his understanding.
“Impossible, absolutely impossible, this is illusion, you’re trying to deceive me!”
