Chapter 643 - Spitting Blood From Anger

Chapter 643 - Spitting Blood From Anger

Thousands of people rose to their feet in unison, creating a majestic and awe-inspiring scene. None could believe what they were witnessing: the Grand Supreme Sword of the Heavenly Origin Sect.

Long ago, one of the Heavenly Origin Sect's ancestors had accidentally ventured into the Grand Supreme Haven and returned with this sword technique. The Grand Supreme Heaven was so mysterious that ordinary people could scarcely enter.

This sword technique had transformed the Heavenly Origin Sect from a minor sect to one of the ten major sects, allowing one to imagine its power.

"The Heavenly Origin Sect has spared no effort to stop Liu Wuxie," someone remarked. "If Liu Wuxie manages to decipher the complete version of the Grand Supreme Sword, the Heavenly Origin Sect would lose their foundation in the Southern Province."

The Azure Crimson Gate was bound to decline after losing the Seven-Lethals Sword Array. Similarly, if the Grand Supreme Sword were completely deciphered by Liu Wuxie, the Heavenly Origin Sect's ultimate technique would be reduced to a joke. After all, the Grand Supreme Sword had maintained an unshakable legacy for the Heavenly Origin Sect for countless years.

A flicker of panic flashed across Bai Jin's eyes. If the sect's grand elders learned that the Grand Supreme Sword had been leaked to the public, they would undoubtedly impeach him and hold him accountable.

There was no turning back now unless Liu Wuxie gave up deciphering the Grand Supreme Sword—an implausible possibility. The hostility between the two had reached the point of no return, especially when the Heavenly Origin Sect provoked Liu Wuxie repeatedly. So how could Liu Wuxie give up such a golden opportunity to strike back at them?

Standing on the tenth level, Liu Wuxie wasn't in a hurry to decipher the Grand Supreme Sword and gazed at it silently instead. The Grand Supreme Sword consisted of thirty-six moves, but there was only one move etched on the stone wall.

"Death Strike!" A cold smirk rose on Liu Wuxie's lips. True to its name, the sword was highly fatal once executed. The users' victims rarely survived, and this sword technique was known to be vicious and tricky to deal with.

Finding the flaw in such a powerful technique was nearly impossible, but Liu Wuxie was no ordinary man. He had encountered all sorts of martial techniques worldwide and found several flaws without needing the Heavenly Dao Book.

As a result, deciphering the sword technique alone wasn't Liu Wuxie's actual goal. He wanted to replicate the complete version of the Grand Supreme Sword and engrave it on the wall for the world to see.

With the help of the Heavenly Dao Book, Liu Wuxie ran numerous simulations. It didn't take long before the complete version of the Grand Supreme Sword appeared in Liu Wuxie's soul sea.

"Heavenly Origin Sect, I bet you didn't imagine this day would come, did you?" Liu Wuxie murmured with a grin and vanished with the Heretic Blade, manifesting countless afterimages.

"Not good!" Wang Ba cried out. This Ten Grand Ceremony had already turned into the most humiliating event in Wang Ba's life as an elder of the Heavenly Origin Sect.

Qian Chong and Zhang Bei felt uneasy as the Grand Supreme Sword was the Heavenly Origin Sect's strongest sword technique. If their ultimate technique was exposed for the world to see, how could the Heavenly Origin Sect maintain its position in the future?

Once everyone learned the Grand Supreme Sword, the Heavenly Origin Sect would lose their monopoly over this sword technique. Worse still, others could use this very technique to target their disciples.

"Sect Master, what should we do now?" Qian Chong asked in a panic.

Wang Ba had been the one handling most challenges, but he had pulled out from getting involved in the trials. Qian Chong and Zhang Bei now handled the trials, but their efforts had backfired spectacularly.

The Heavenly Origin Sect had planned to use this technique to stop all the other contestants in their tracks, but they had dug their graves instead.

Bai Jin remained silent, but his eyes showed a terrifying, murderous intent.

The other members of the Heavenly Origin Sect in the surroundings didn't dare to get too close, fearing Bai Jin might kill them. The latter was like an enraged tiger at this moment, ready to pounce on anyone who dared to provoke him.

Meanwhile, Mu Tianli watched with a faint smirk. He knew that Liu Wuxie was about to create a miracle in the Southern Province in a few minutes, claiming first place across all five trials—an unprecedented feat in the history of the Ten Grand Ceremonies.

The elders and disciples of the second-tier sects widened their eyes with excitement. They were finally about to witness the complete Grand Supreme Sword. If they could comprehend and learn it, it would become the ultimate technique for their sects.

When Bai Yuan completed the trial, he was confused when he looked at the surroundings.

"Elder Qian, what's going on?" Bai Yuan asked with a grim face. He could feel that something wasn't right.

"Our Grand Supreme Sword has been completely deciphered," Qian Chong said, not daring to hide anything. He even pointed at a stone wall on the tenth level. There, Liu Wuxie had etched the complete, flawless depiction of the Grand Supreme Sword plain for everyone to see.

Bai Yuan stumbled and nearly collapsed to the ground. He yelled, "How could this happen?"

He retraced Liu Wuxie's footsteps, and his eyes deepened with shock each time. By the time he reached the tenth level, his heart was pounding with fear. Liu Wuxie's comprehension of martial techniques was beyond anything Bai Yuan had ever encountered. It was as though there wasn't a single martial technique he couldn't decipher.

This made Bai Yuan wonder if Liu Wuxie was someone in the True Profound Realm. But even powerhouses in the True Profound Realm couldn't decipher all thirty-six moves of the Grand Supreme Sword from just one move—and in such a short time.

"Young master, time is running out. That brat has obtained first place across all five trials and will obtain double his rewards, which means ten Ascension Pills. His cultivation will grow rapidly during this time," Qian Chong said, his face laced with worry.

Liu Wuxie's understanding of martial techniques had surpassed everyone present, and they had to kill him before he could grow. If they allowed him to grow, no one would be his match based on his insight into martial techniques.

"I will kill him myself!" Bai Yuan clenched his fists, and his murderous intent surged as he returned to the Heavenly Origin Sect's region with Qian Chong.

"Father, I have brought you shame!" Bai Yuan exclaimed as he fell to his knees upon returning. He knew his father would ultimately bear the blame for the exposure of the Grand Supreme Sword.

The sect might have overlooked the incident if Bai Yuan had secured first place in all five trials. However, not only did he fail to achieve a good result, but his performance also tarnished his father’s reputation. The weight of guilt pressed heavily on him.

"This has nothing to do with you," Bai Jin sighed and motioned for his son to rise. His gaze lingered on Liu Wuxie's tent, but Mu Tianli had set up a barrier that prevented any divine sense from penetrating.

"Saving the entire sect by himself. The Heavenly Treasure Pavilion has stolen the show this time." The second-tier sects began to discuss among themselves.

The past few days had been dominated by Liu Wuxie, turning the trials into a one-man show as he crushed all the contestants with an overwhelming advantage.

"But what good will it do? It doesn't change the fact that his cultivation is too low. The Heavenly Origin Sect and Azure Crimson Gate won't let him leave alive in the final battle tomorrow." While Liu Wuxie’s talent earned the respect of many, it also drew envy in equal measure. Such was the complexity of human nature—admiration and jealousy walking hand in hand.

"I have a feeling that it won't be simple. With ten Ascension Pills, Liu Wuxie's cultivation will continue to rise, and it won't be easy for him to be killed unless numerous experts gang up on him!"

Everyone had witnessed Liu Wuxie's strength, especially how he had killed a fifth-level Astral River Realm disciple from the Heavenly Origin Sect.

"The Heavenly Origin Sect will most likely join forces with the other sects to target and kill him."

Even if Liu Wuxie was strong, there was no way he could confront so many people alone. It wasn't a secret that the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion was internally fragmented and disorganized, making it impossible for them to join hands with Liu Wuxie. Many of his fellow disciples were more than happy to see him dead.

When the final tower trial concluded in the evening, news of Liu Wuxie's act of deciphering the complete version of the Grand Supreme Sword reached Xu Lingxue, who was stunned by the news.

She knew how powerful the Grand Supreme Sword was. Bai Yuan had once promised to teach her the Grand Supreme Sword if she agreed to marry him. This ultimate technique of the Heavenly Origin Sect had become public for everyone to learn.

The trial ended with Liu Wuxie claiming first place, Bai Yuan second, and Qu Yang third.

When Liu Wuxie came out of his tent, he had recovered from all the exhaustion after an afternoon of rest. All that remained was the Ascension Pills, which would allow him to reach the third level of the Astral River Realm.
