Borrowing a sword

Chapter 335 The Power of the Sword Master
boom--!
The entire training ground erupted in chaos, a commotion that was impossible to stop.

Once the Eastern Continent Decree appeared, the situation spiraled out of control once again!

The holder of this decree can indeed command the four major sects once.

But few people would use such an opportunity in this kind of situation!

The nature of the incident has actually escalated further.

Now that the four major sects have agreed to this matter, it is no longer a simple matter of personal grudges.

Now, it's as if the great cultivators of the Mirror Kingdom are openly arm wrestling with the great cultivators of the Moon Kingdom!

There were quite a few intelligent people present who immediately understood the meaning behind Chu Huai's preface.

The key is the phrase "fight to the death"!
He said he didn't want to be interfered with by external forces, simply because he didn't want his opponent to be saved when his life was hanging by a thread, like in the previous matches.

Qin Xuanxiao, as the crown prince and a member of the imperial family, and Chu Huaixu, having mobilized the four major sects in one fell swoop, undoubtedly meant the external interference he was referring to as the great cultivators of the Moon Kingdom sitting on the high platform!
Including those four Ninth Realm cultivators standing at the peak of Xuanhuang!
The spectators below the ring felt their scalps tingle.

No one expected that what was supposed to be a battle for the top spot in the third realm would turn out like this!

The deathmatch agreement was one thing, but why did they also come up with the Eastern Continent Token, and the four major sects actually accepted it!
Some people who were unaware of the truth were still wondering, "I've never understood why Chu Huaixu has the Eastern Continent Token?"

"What is his cultivation level? How could he have made such a great contribution to the Eastern Continent?"

"Logically speaking, someone with his cultivation level shouldn't be able to do that! What major issues could he possibly resolve?"

But now is certainly not the time to consider these things.

Everyone began to concentrate, eager to witness what would happen next!
Once Luo Tiangu's [Tianluo] made its statement, the significance of the event escalated.

More importantly, his open statement, saying "the four major sects have agreed to this matter," actually showed a rather tough and resolute attitude.

At least in terms of sheer presence, it's quite impressive!

This prompted Xiahou Yue, the Protector of the Nation clad in golden armor, to let out a cold snort.

The sound wasn't loud, but tens of thousands of people at the scene could all hear it.

He exuded a powerful aura, which was extremely oppressive, and his momentum continued to rise.

"What a fine combination of the four major sects!" Xiahou Yue said coldly.

His voice was slightly hoarse, and his gaze was like that of a hawk.

The Moon Emperor, seated in the very center, appeared somewhat distracted, as if this elderly emperor was not overly concerned about the matter.

In this battle among cultivators, Xiahou Yue, as the strongest person in the Moon Kingdom on the surface, has undoubtedly become the representative at this moment.

This is the capital of the Moon Kingdom, their territory. If they don't make a statement, they risk being laughed at by the world!
The protector continued, "This is the Moon Kingdom! If we truly wish to intervene, what will you use to stop us!"

After speaking, he glanced at Zhuge Boyue and Li Fu of [Tianxia Mountain], and the two nodded in agreement.

Until his gaze fell upon the last person present, a ninth-realm cultivator from the Moon Kingdom—Cheng Yuyan.

After making eye contact with the Guardian of the Nation, this number one rogue cultivator immediately stopped gently waving his folding fan and looked away.

This scholar, Cheng, who "fears nothing more than a peaceful world" and only wants to watch the excitement, transmitted his voice to all the great cultivators present except for the Moon Emperor:

"Senior Xiahou, cough cough, as you know, I owe the Daoist sect a huge favor."

After making this statement, it's unclear whether he's a neutral party or a fence-sitter.

But they definitely won't attack the Taoist sect!
This caused Xiahou Yue's square face to instantly turn cold.

However, even if Cheng Yuyan doesn't make a move, on the surface, the Yue Kingdom still has the upper hand.

Once you enter the Nine Realms, the difference between each level is significant.

Xiahou Yue was practically invincible among these people.

Unless Jiang Zhi, this peerless killing god, suddenly goes mad, disregards everything, stops sealing his sword, and risks his life to unleash the "Heaven and Earth Sword" that he has nurtured for many years!
Otherwise, no one present could have stopped Xiahou Yue!

Moreover, this is the capital city.

The old Imperial Advisor Ming Xuanji merged with the formation, which is capable of activating the Imperial Capital's grand formation!

The power of the Imperial Capital Formation is even greater than that of Xiahou Yue!

Your four major sects of the Eastern Continent speak with such arrogance.

But what makes you think you can agree to this?!
Faced with the oppressive aura emanating from Xiahou Yue, Jiang Zhi couldn't help but snort coldly.

Just as this peerless killer was about to take a step forward, he was stopped by the middle-aged scholar beside him.

“Senior Jiang, I know the painstaking effort you put into nurturing that sword.”

“It’s not worth it,” he said softly.

The current Sword Master of the Sword Sect glanced at his junior brother, whose hair was half-white.

Everyone says that the contemporary master swordsman is a late bloomer.

Little did he know that he simply hadn't focused his mind on swordsmanship when he was young.

It wasn't until that time when he and his junior brother went down the mountain for training that they survived thanks to Situ Cheng burning his life force.

Only then did he understand:
"Thirty years have passed in a blur, and I have achieved nothing in either scholarship or swordsmanship."

Once he became obsessed with swords, he couldn't stop.

He deliberately stayed at the eighth realm, waiting for his junior brother to catch up; it had been quite a while.

But today is different.

He looked at Chu Huaixu on the arena with admiration in his eyes.

He raised his hand and waved it gently, and the Eastern Continent Token in the young man's hand floated up and fell into his hand.

This order was to command the four major sects, yet he accepted it alone at this moment.

The two hair ribbons of the middle-aged scholar fluttered backward in the wind.

He smiled at Chu Huaixu, his voice gentle and mild:

"A gentleman honors his promise."

"Now that this matter has been agreed upon, young friend Chu can proceed with the task."

The Sword Master of the Sword Sect, gentle and refined as jade, uttered the following words:

"At worst, I'll just enter the Ninth Realm."

It was as if they were talking about a trivial matter.

On the arena, Chu Huaixu received the Sword Master's promise and had a general idea of ​​what to expect. Legend has it that the current Sword Master of the Sword Sect, with only the eighth realm cultivation, once killed a ninth realm cultivator and even mastered the [Ten Thousand Swords Return to One] technique.

Many people say that once the Sword Master enters the Ninth Realm, he will probably become the number one swordsman in the world!

Chu Huaixu knew in his heart that there might be some exaggeration involved. For example, Jiang Zhi's [Heaven and Earth Sword] might be unstoppable.

However, setting aside these specific circumstances, the exaggeration in this rumor is not significant.

And this is something that these great cultivators of the Moon Kingdom are probably aware of as well.

Even Xiahou Yue, who was wearing golden armor, couldn't help but feel a chill.

"But with the Imperial Capital's grand formation here, what can he do even if he enters the Ninth Realm!"

Therefore, Xiahou Yue remained incredibly resolute:

"So what if you reach the Ninth Realm!"

The middle-aged Confucian scholar was clearly not the type to enjoy verbal sparring.

He simply smiled faintly, then carefully put away the Eastern Continent Token without offering any rebuttal.

Just then, Ming Xuanji suddenly spoke.

"The auspicious time has come."

"It's time for the competition."

All eyes once again turned to Chu Huaixu and Qin Xuanxiao.

The Crown Prince of Rui stared intently at his opponent.

He simply couldn't understand how a lackey cultivated by the organization could gain such a high level of attention in the Eastern Continent Mirror Kingdom in such a short period of time!
The four major sects openly supported him!

But now, none of that matters.

"Because you won't live past today!" Qin Xuanxiao thought to himself.

But for some reason, he felt a strange sense of anxiety and apprehension.

Recent events have made him feel that many things are extremely strange.

He always felt that the founding emperor was hiding something from him.

Born into the imperial family, he understood from a young age that there were many things he was not worthy of knowing.

"But what is the cause of this unease in my heart?"

Qin Xuanxiao felt that even if he killed Chu Huaixu today, the development of the situation had already become unknown.

He felt very confused.

Recently, his fear of the ancestral emperor and even his grandfather has been growing deeper and deeper.

I can't explain why, it's just a gut feeling.

At this very moment, the Crown Prince Rui immediately activated the spiritual power connected to Lin Zixuan.

The petite girl immediately began casting a spell on the stage, performing a "spiritual energy loan".

However, she had always had a decent impression of Chu Huaixu.

The girl never imagined that things would suddenly turn into a deadly battle.

Moreover, neither side left themselves any room for maneuver!
Before the match, Chu Huaixu and Qin Xuanxiao didn't even bother to politely bow.

Now that all the contradictions are out in the open, there's no need for pretense.

If you really want to pay respects, you should save it for when you sweep your grave!
Before the fight even began, Qin Xuanxiao took out a pill. Only after taking this pill could the Emperor's divine sense fight on his behalf.

Chu Huaixu looked at him and said calmly, "Very smart, you know to eat now. Otherwise, you wouldn't have a chance to eat."

If he were to unleash his full power and concentrate all his supernatural abilities into a single sword strike, even the protagonist of the world would be unable to withstand it!

He won't even have a chance to take the pill once the fight officially begins!

A purple moon mark appeared on Qin Xuanxiao's forehead, and a purple moon phantom began to condense behind him.

He closed his eyes, then slowly opened them.

His eyes have changed, and his entire demeanor has changed as well.

Chu Huaixu knew clearly that from this moment on, he was no longer facing a simple protagonist of a world.

His opponent was someone who had stood at the pinnacle of the Xuanhuang Realm hundreds of years ago.

The founding emperor of the Moon Kingdom!
The two locked eyes, each seeing endless anger and resentment in the other's gaze.

Four strands of divine consciousness were seized.

If it weren't for the resurrection coin, it would have already died.

Facing such a person, Chu Huaixu would certainly not be presumptuous.

A golden mark instantly appeared between his eyebrows.

Golden flames began to burn fiercely in a pair of jet-black eyes.

This was the first time he had used his body-refining supernatural power on the arena of the grand competition: physical sainthood!

This was also the first time he had used this divine power at full strength after his [Physique] had increased by 2 points.

For a moment, even the group of great cultivators on the high platform were utterly astonished.

"This is... a body-refining divine technique!?"

With their strength, they could easily see at a glance how incredible the improvement in Chu Huaixu's physical body was after he used his supernatural powers!

"Such a powerful body-refining technique exists in the world!"

This was a mind-blowing experience for some of the highly accomplished practitioners present.

The reason why body cultivators are labeled as vulgar is that most of them cannot awaken supernatural powers, and even if they do, their power is far inferior to that of spiritual embryo supernatural powers.

However, the power of blood and qi emanating from Chu Huaixu's body was simply too exaggerated, which was quite astonishing!
At this moment, "Qin Xuanxiao" began to float into the air.

As a crude and unsophisticated physical cultivator, Chu Huaixu naturally did not possess such abilities.

But it doesn't matter.

"Just punch him down!"
