Chapter 546: That Sword That Only Knows How to Kill Demons

In the endless wind and snow, this sentence sounded particularly harsh.

Everyone present heard it clearly.

Even though Wei Xu was being scolded, and even if he knew the person berating him was someone he never particularly liked, he still let out a sigh of relief.

A beam of sword light followed the voice, dazzling within the storm, as if it would slice open the entire heaven and earth at that very moment!

Without a doubt, that was a sword cultivator.

And the only sword cultivator who could appear here, disregard the academy and the Dean, and openly scold someone like this could only be Liu Banbi.

Liu Banbi might still carry traces of a scholar's demeanor, but his sword did not.

His sword was like the most biting wind and snow of the Northern Frontier - cold, piercing, and deadly.

This was the Sword Dao Liu Banbi had cultivated after spending many years in the Northern Frontier, killing countless demons.

His sword may not be the finest sword, but it was certainly the deadliest in the world today.

Because he trained the sword solely to kill demons, to kill more demons.

That was why Liu Banbi's sword was like this.

Unyieldingly fierce, carrying the purest, most direct killing intent.

That sword light streaked across the sky like a brilliant meteor, ultimately crashing into the giant hand.

Then, for a brief moment, the world fell silent.

The giant hand dissipated, turning into wind and snow that fell back down, blending seamlessly with the world.

A swordsman in a green slowly emerged from the snowstorm.

He held a sword in hand, with a blade of wild grass between his lips that he had found from who knows where. He spat it out and cursed loudly toward the distance, “Wei Xu, all your life, you've just been reading those damn useless books! What good are they?”

Wei Xu frowned but still responded calmly, "Say that to Teacher."

Liu Banbi sneered, “I'm scolding you, not Teacher!”

Wei Xu remained silent.

Liu Banbi was not too concerned about the towering dharma idol representing that great demon. He simply turned his head, smiling at Xie Nandu, "Little Junior Sister, how do you want him to die?"

Although both were at the Nepenthe stage, if the gap between them was not too great, it would be difficult to decide life and death. But now that Liu Banbi was determined to kill, there was no doubt that he could make it happen.

In these years at the Northern Frontier, Liu Banbi's cultivation had progressed steadily. But what truly allowed his Sword Dao to skyrocket was witnessing the final sword strike of a great sword immortal in Xuanling County before he returned to the Divine Capital. It was that night in the academy when he resolved his inner conflicts with his teacher, and later, the day he sought answers at Sword Sect.

These events were like scattered fragments that Liu Banbi gradually pieced together.

They completed his Sword Dao and made his state of mind even clearer.

At this moment, the current Liu Banbi was far stronger than the Liu Banbi of years past.

If the Great Sword Immortal Realm was a mountain, then at this moment, Liu Banbi had already glimpsed that mountain.

Since he could see it, reaching its base was only a matter of time.

Liu Banbi simply needed to stay alive and keep moving forward.

Xie Nandu's face was pale, but she still said calmly, "Senior Brother Liu, I'll leave it to your judgment."

Liu Banbi burst out laughing, "Little Junior Sister is truly still Little Junior Sister. Such composure is beyond what ordinary people can compare to."

Before he even finished speaking, a sword light shot up from the ground!

Then countless sword lights followed, rising from the snowy earth. In an instant, the entire storm was filled with sword lights piercing the heavens.

Amidst the countless sword lights, Liu Banbi laughed heartily.

Compared to Wei Xu’s earlier moves, Liu Banbi's technique displayed boundless grandeur and overwhelming momentum from the very start.

This was perhaps more in line with what people imagined from cultivators at the Nepenthe stage.

Gao Xuan watched this scene and was momentarily dazed, marveling, "This is true liberation!"

The splendor of a sword immortal should indeed be like this.

As Liu Banbi rose with the sword lights amidst the snowstorm, the Embracing Cicada in his hand hummed like the call of a winter cicada, shaking the heavens and earth!

Before the towering dharma idol, Liu Banbi might have seemed like a mere ant, but the myriad sword lights were dazzling beyond compare.

Heaven and earth was ablaze with brilliance!
