Chapter 1109: Fusion of Man and Sword vs. Fusion of Man and Sword
"My sword path... is named Sword Sovereign!" Jian San calmly spoke, raising the Ancient Sword Concealing the Heavens for a moment. Behind him, a huge sword covered with scars and sword marks materialized.
"I started practicing the sword at the age of seven!"
"A hundred years to kill the heavens!"
"A thousand years to break the Heaven Elixir!"
"Ten thousand years to shatter the Nascent Soul!"
"Thirty thousand years, reaching the Divine Transformation!"
"All along my path, I have never suffered defeat!"
"My sword path has always been unparalleled and invincible!"
"He Yi Ming, in this battle, you will undoubtedly lose!"
Jian San's voice was calm as he raised the Ancient Sword Concealing the Heavens, slashing through the air!
This strike was completely different from the three-fold sword energy he used to test Emperor Zoro earlier!
This was a full-force strike from a Divine Transformation realm expert, condensing his sword intent to its peak!
"Boom, boom, boom!!!" A massive sword energy spanning ten thousand meters cut through the sky, shattering the palace and buildings around it, distorting the void as it bore down on He Yi Ming!
"My sword intent, named Reverse Heaven!" He Yi Ming calmly spoke, also raising the Ancient Sword Emperor's Fall. With a backhanded strike, a sword energy of three thousand meters erupted, clashing with Jian San's sword energy in the void.
"Crackling, crackling, crackling!!!" Amidst the rumbling, the sword energies on both sides shattered simultaneously, but He Yi Ming's sword energy left behind faint traces. It pierced through Jian San's sword energy and headed towards him!
Jian San's heart jolted. He swiftly dissipated the remaining traces of sword energy, but he understood.
His sword intent...
Was inferior in realm to He Yi Ming's!
"Amazing!" Emperor Zoro, who had been pushed back a kilometer by the erupting energy, watched the battle between He Yi Ming and Jian San in astonishment, unable to intervene.
Both sides' strengths and realms were genuine Divine Transformation level!
"The warm-up is about done! Let's get serious!" Jian San smiled, and his overwhelming sword intent began to retract, enveloping his entire body.
He Yi Ming naturally understood what Jian San was doing. Without further ado, he also retracted his sword intent, condensing it throughout his entire body.
In the span of a breath!
Jian San and He Yi Ming, their sword intents that had nearly torn through the sky seemed to dissipate!
Only Emperor Zoro knew that both of these were extreme experts in the path of the sword. They had condensed their previously terrifying sword intents to their peaks, achieving a level that resembled returning to their original state.
This evidently meant both were preparing for a decisive strike!
"Fusion of man and sword!!" Jian San softly spoke, erupting into a boundless radiance. Together with the Ancient Sword Concealing the Heavens, he transformed into a sword beam!
"Fusion of man and sword!" He Yi Ming likewise raised the Ancient Sword Emperor's Fall and transformed into a streak of light!
"Boom!" The two beams of light instantly intersected, passing each other!
Emperor Zoro was shocked!
Fusion of man and sword against fusion of man and sword?
Then, who would win?
"Boom!!!" A deafening metallic collision shook heaven and earth, expanding like thunder!
The point of intersection between the two beams of light caused cracks to form in the void, piercing through and creating a spatial rift!
However, quickly after, the two beams of light revealed their respective figures. Both He Yi Ming and Jian San's silhouettes appeared once more.
He Yi Ming's cheek was marked by a trail of blood, his expression slightly changed.
However, after Jian San's silhouette appeared, he lowered his head in disbelief.
In Jian San's abdomen, there was a bloodied hole that had been pierced through!
This time's exchange...
Jian San was completely defeated!
"Huff..." Jian San spat out a mouthful of blood. He utilized the power of his Divine Transformation cultivation to shatter the sword intent that had spread around the wound, completely dispelling it.
However, Jian San understood...
If this had been a pure sword intent confrontation...
He would have lost!
Jian San couldn't comprehend it!
This was his first defeat in the path of the sword after fifty thousand years of immersion!
Jian San couldn't understand!
He had devoted fifty thousand years of his life to the sword path!
And yet, this He Yi Ming before him, did he even have fifty years?
No!
The instant they clashed, Jian San realized!
He Yi Ming's comprehension of the sword path, not even five years of wandering time!
And the result was that he had lost!
Why was this?
"Why..."
"Why have I dedicated more than ten thousand times the time to studying the sword path than you?"
"Why did I lose to you?"
Jian San looked at He Yi Ming, unable to fathom the question he posed!
"Why?" He Yi Ming didn't know how to answer this question.
Did he have a system?
Had he traveled to the ancient era?
Was he a combination of gods and demons?
Did he possess the luck of a Golden Dragon?
He had so many attributes that he couldn't even count them all!
But in the end, He Yi Ming still knew how to answer.
Because, in their clash just now, which had shattered the palace and attracted countless disciples and players from the Sword Domain, He Yi Ming calmly spoke, asking the nearby Fourth-generation disciples.
"Dear Fourth-generation disciples, can you tell this Jian San... why he lost?" With a single sentence, He Yi Ming ignited the enthusiasm of the players nearby!
"A sword strike that never returns! Senior Jian San, you can't even perceive life and death. How could you possibly defeat my brother Ming, who poured everything into his sword? How could you win against my brother Ming?" One of the Five Swordsmen, Breakdown, stepped forward, his tone calm.
"What?" Jian San and the others were dumbfounded.
He had lost to He Yi Ming, but that didn't mean just any small fry could teach him a lesson!
So Jian San sneered in disbelief.
"Oh? Then tell me, what is 'a sword strike that never returns'?" Jian San disdainfully questioned.
"Damn it!"
"Damn it!"
"Damn it, we can interact with Boss too?"
"Damn it, I envy him so much!"
"Let me do it, let me!"
"Bullshit, let me do it!"
...
The sword cultivators were instantly excited, eager to perform!
However, Breakdown was the fastest to act!
Damn it!
This guy, I've already snatched him up!
"Jian San! Dare you to face my sword strike!!!" Breakdown leaped into the air, wielding his earth-element flying sword, and charged straight towards Jian San!
His Early Nascent Soul stage cultivation erupted even further!
"Seeking death!" Jian San grew furious!
He, a Divine Transformation realm powerhouse!
Even Emperor Zoro, the strongest swordsman under He Yi Ming, couldn't even scratch him!
This Fourth-generation disciple of the Flame Yellow Sect, who had only joined a couple of months ago, actually wanted to challenge him?
But in the next moment, Jian
San and the others were stupefied!
"A sword strike that never returns! Fusion of man and sword!!!" Breakdown didn't waste any words; he went all out!
A single move was a fatal strike!
A streak of brown light flashed by, and Jian San retaliated with a backhanded strike, obliterating it!
Breakdown, defeated!
However...
"!" Jian San suddenly felt a chilling sensation on his cheek. He reached up and found a trail of blood. To his shock, he realized that a blood mark had been left on his cheek by Breakdown's strike.
A Fourth-generation disciple of the Flame Yellow Sect...
Had actually injured him?
