Chapter 146: One Sword

Yuan Rou's figure appeared in Mo Xiu's Divine Consciousness, "Brother Xiu, I gave him that sword, do you want to take it back?"

Mo Xiu looked at the sword in Cen Danqiu's hand, shook his head secretly, and replied, "No."

Cen Danqiu's current strength had a lot to do with that sword, because that sword was a Divine weapon.

Spiritual rank, Magic rank, Artifact rank, Treasure rank, Profound rank, Divine rank...

Although it was only a low-grade Divine rank, it was still very powerful for most people who had never touched a treasure.

Of course, even if it was a Divine rank weapon, with Cen Danqiu's current strength, he would not be able to fully display its power, at most only one percent.

For Mo Xiu, the rank of the weapon in the opponent's hand was not important, anyway, it was no better than the weapon he used.

He only needed to confirm that Cen Danqiu's cultivation was only in the Great Perfection-stage of the Essence Converging Realm, and the others were not very important.

Cen Danqiu didn't know that Mo Xiu had a conversation with Yuan Rou, let alone that the sword in his hand was almost taken back by Yuan Rou.

Hearing Mo Xiu said that the battle would end in the shortest time, he smiled disdainfully, "Base on a weakling like you?"

After finishing speaking, he felt that it was not quite right, and said to himself, "Even if you can end the battle in the shortest time, that only means that you will lose instead of win."

As he said, looking at Mo Xiu again, "So you still have this realization, don't worry, for the sake of your sincerity, I will fulfill you."

"Did you misunderstand something?"

Mo Xiu glanced at that guy slightly, "Since I agreed to fight against the core disciple of your level, I never thought I would lose."

Cen Danqiu was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "You are only in the Profound Spirit Realm. Allowing you to challenge me, a master in the Essence Converging Realm, is already considered the greatest tolerance. Haven't you thought that you will lose?"

Under the ring, the crowd also felt a little speechless and began to discuss.

"This Wu Jue is a bit crazy."

"At the beginning of his cultivation, he was able to easily defeat Hu Bugui, a Great Perfection-stage Profound Spirit Realm disciple, and he could cut off an arm of Zhuo Yuchen in the Early-stage of the Essence Converging Realm. So it's justified that he can indeed be a bit arrogant, but it is a pity that he meets Cen Danqiu this time."

"I believe that he and Senior Brother Cen have the strength to fight, but it is absolutely impossible to say that he can defeat Senior Brother Cen."

"Heh, such an arrogant and ignorant guy also wants to become a core disciple? Wait for Senior Brother Cen to teach him how to be a man and let him know what modesty is."

...

Mo Xiu naturally heard the discussion from everyone below, but he didn't take it seriously, just waiting for Mo Chong to announce the start of the competition.

After seeing the two standing up, Mo Chong raised his hand and said, "This is a friendly competition, you can't hurt each other's life."

Then he waved his hand, "Start!"

The competition had already begun, but neither of the two in the ring took any action.

Mo Xiu was gathering momentum. He had already burned the True Energy in his body, mobilized all of them, injected it into the sword, and prepared to perform the strongest blow to end the battle in the shortest time.

Cen Danqiu didn't know what Mo Xiu was doing, and he even thought that Mo Xiu was letting him make the first move.

His own cultivation base was much higher than Mo Xiu, naturally, he didn't need Mo Xiu to let him move first, even he thought that he should let Mo Xiu take action first, otherwise, he would lose his demeanor.

Seeing that Mo Xiu hadn't moved for a long time, he said, "You should take action first. You have a lower level of cultivation."

Mo Xiu was ready to attack at any time.

Hearing that, he shook his head, "You can just do it first."

"Ridiculous!"

Cen Danqiu snorted coldly, "I'm just letting you do it first. Do you really think you're that awesome with your big words? It's just too easy for me to beat you!"

"You can try it," Mo Xiu also snorted back.

Cen Danqiu frowned, "Whatever, my cultivation base is higher than yours. It was originally unfair. But since you don't want to make a move, I will do it first. When the time comes, the sect will punish you, and I will help you intercede."

As he said, he swung his sword and rushed towards Mo Xiu.

He didn't use any sword skills, because in his opinion, Mo Xiu was really vulnerable, and he didn't need to use sword skills at all, otherwise, it would be an insult to himself.

The speed of an Essence Converging Realm cultivator was naturally very fast, almost in a flash, Cen Danqiu had already arrived in front of Mo Xiu.

Only in the next moment, the sword in Mo Xiu's hand was raised, and a dazzling light burst out, instantly drowning the entire combat field.

"Boom!"

A shocking sound rang out, and the entire Divine Sword Sect was shocked.

Many Divine Consciousnesses came across and probed the situation on the ring. It only took a short time, and everyone was stunned.

"How... how is it possible!"

The sword light converged, making the entire arena disappear except for the small piece at Mo Xiu's feet.

As for Cen Danqiu, who was in the Great Perfection-stage of the Essence Converging Realm, he was already in rags at the moment. His whole body was in an awkward state. He was lying on the ground straight, unable to move, and his breath was still very disordered. He had obviously suffered very serious injuries.

"Senior Brother Cen lost?"

"A single sword can cause such a large amount of destructive power. What kind of sword art is this?"

"It's too strong, is this a Sky-level sword art?"

"The Sky-level sword art shouldn't be so powerful."

"I just heard him say that he would end the battle in the shortest possible time. I didn't expect it to be true."

...

The onlookers were all surprised and talked about it for a while.

Mo Chong rushed over instantly, took out a pill, and used his True Energy to help Cen Danqiu take it down. Then he said, "Two people will help and carry him back."

They were all core disciples, so they usually had close contacts. In addition, Cen Danqiu was quite respected among the core disciples. Therefore, after Mo Chong's order, many people rushed to help Cen Danqiu without delay.

More people look at Mo Xiu with jealousy, admiration, awe, fear... all kinds of emotions in their eyes.

Mo Xiu stood on the small ring, put away the sword in his hand, immediately looked at Mo Chong, and asked, "Did I win?"

"Of course."

Mo Chong nodded, looking at the small ring, a little depressed.

If he knew the power of Mo Xiu's sword was so terrifying, he would've added a barrier to the ring, now, he had to recreate another one.

After hearing Mo Chong's words, Mo Xiu jumped off the ring where there was only a small piece of it left.

At this time, a voice came into his ears, "Come to the Boundless Hall."

Mo Xiu knew that this was the Divine Consciousness Transmission of the Sect Master, so he was not surprised, said to Mo Chong, and then walked in the direction where the Boundless Hall was located.

...

Boundless Hall was the place where the Sect Master and a group of elders gathered previously.

At this moment, in the Boundless Hall.

The Sect Master looked at everyone and said, "Everyone has seen the battle. Wu Jue does have the strength to easily defeat an Essence Converging Realm expert, so what he said should be true."

Whether it was fake or not, only Mo Xiu knew it himself, and no one could guarantee it.

However, Mo Xiu had already proven his strength with actions. He could indeed kill any Essence Converging Realm experts without colluding with the people from Inferno Martial sect. Even if there were still opinions in their hearts, everyone had nothing to say.

The Sect Master then finalized, "According to the agreement just now, Wu Jue will be the core disciple of the sect and enjoy the treatment of the core disciple. After one year in the sect, he can worship an elder of the sect as his teacher."

...

The core disciples lived in a different place from the inner disciples, and the jade badges they used and the patterns of the clothes they wore were also different.

Before going to change his identity, Mo Xiu was called by the Sect Master.

"Something?" Mo Xiu asked.

Even if the Sect Master stood in front of him, he did not show the slightest behavior that a Seraphic Sword Sect's disciple should have.

The Sect Master didn't care, and even thought it was good.

He nodded, and immediately asked, "Do you know the Spirit Island Trial?"

"I know some about it," Mo Xiu replied truthfully.

The Sect Master nodded, "That's good. In another seven days, I will personally lead the team and take the flying boat to Spirit Island. You will also participate in this trial."

It was about half a month before the start of the Spirit Island Trial, but it must take several days to get from the Seraphic Sword Sect to Spirit Island, so it was about the same time to set off in another seven days.

Mo Xiu had already learned from Song Shenxue that he was going to participate in the Spirit Island Trial, so he was not surprised.

He just looked at the Sect Master and waited for the following.

The Sect Master stared at Mo Xiu for a while, and continued, "When you have time, go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. There is a book called "Spirit Island's Secrets". Take that book and read it."

Mo Xiu really didn't pay attention to such a book.

He didn't know what was really recorded in the book to make the Sect Master to urge him to check it out, but the core disciple's identity could enter and leave the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion at will.

He didn't ask, but nodded, "I see."

The Sect Master was silent for a while before he tentatively said, "The sword technique you used to defeat Cen Danqiu before..."

"Essence Bursting Sword Art, in the entire Seraphic Sword Sect, it can only be used by me," Mo Xiu said bluntly.

The Sect Master really wanted Mo Xiu to hand over the manual of that sword skill to see, but he still couldn't say what he said.

After all, he was the lord of a sect, so he needed to save some face, and that sword technique was no more than that, it was not worth letting him do this kind of reputation destruction.

He just sighed, "You are already the core disciple of our Seraphic Sword Sect anyway. It's not good to always use your own techniques. When you go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, remember to learn a few techniques of the Seraphic Sword Sect by the way."
