Ahhh!
All of a sudden, w.a.n.gu Ziyi bellowed in fury, as he was forced back by Huang Xiaolong. In an instant, a mesmerizing array of cyan swords flew out from his body.
Each of these cyan-colored swords were half a meter long and identical in shape, and their bright green jade surfaces emitted a cold l.u.s.ter. There was a total of nine hundred and ninety-nine swords!
Nine hundred and ninety-nine cyan swords swished through the air, forming a big circle above Huang Xiaolong.
“The Universe Crossing Sword Formation!” Someone in the crowd exclaimed.
That’s right, this nine hundred and ninety-nine cyan swords’ formation was w.a.n.gu Clan’s most powerful sword formation called the Universe Crossing Sword Formation!
This great Universe Crossing Sword Formation circled rapidly above Huang Xiaolong’s head. With every turn, the swords shot out nine hundred and ninety-nine sword lights. At the same time, the Universe Crossing Sword Formation emitted ripples of Buddhism luminance.
Huang Xiaolong noticed that these Buddhism luminance ripples did not only increase the power of the sword lights, but also suppressed and weakened the entrapped person’s strength!
Huang Xiaolong sneered inwardly, ‘Unfortunately, w.a.n.gu Ziyi met me!’ In an instant, the Mulberry Sword appeared in his hand. With a slash, images of wooden swords appeared. They deflected the cyan swords’ lights, while they attacked and flew towards the cyan swords.
The number of wooden swords’ images matched the exact number of w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s nine hundred and ninety-nine cyan swords. Sword lights ricocheted everywhere when the two opposing sides collided.
The crowd felt a piercing pain in their eyes from watching the ricocheting sword lights despite the protective barrier over the battle stage. It seemed like Huang Xiaolong and w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s sword lights’ power could penetrate through the barrier and take their lives at any moment.
Huang Xiaolong and w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s sword lights’ power had exceeded the limitation of the protective barrier’s s.p.a.ce.
The two on the stage had exchanged several hundred moves in the blink of an eye.
Initially, it was w.a.n.gu Ziyi who attacked first, while Huang Xiaolong defended, but later on, Huang Xiaolong gained the upper hand and attacked while w.a.n.gu Ziyi defended himself. From attack to defense, their roles switched back and forth more than a few times, their movements and speed were faster than before, akin to two sharp sword lights criss-crossing on the battle stage.
The entire s.p.a.ce of the battle stage was filled with alarming sword lights to such an extent, that no place seemed safe.
In the end, Huang Xiaolong and w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s figures seemingly disappeared from the crowd’s sight. There were countless colliding sword lights on the battle stage, which bloomed like flowers, then boomed like thunderclaps, and swirled like a hurricane, or blew like a soft breeze brus.h.i.+ng across the ground.
Everyone was astounded at the scenes on the battle stage to the point of forgetting to breathe, as if they were a part of the sword lights on the battle stage; immersed in the world of swords in front of their eyes
Sky Sword Ancestor couldn’t help but sighed, “A peerless sword genius ah!”
No one knew if he was talking about Huang Xiaolong or w.a.n.gu Ziyi.
As if influenced by Huang Xiaolong and w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s sword fight, as the time pa.s.sed, suddenly sword lights enshrouded Sky Sword Ancestor’s body like a watery mist that does not scatter, extremely illusionary.
Myriad Flames Ancestor and the others who noticed this were shocked at this sight—Huang Xiaolong and w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s sword fight could actually enlighten Sky Sword Ancestor?!
Sword qi flooded the battle stage as the fight continued.
High-level Ancestor G.o.d Realm masters could see that the sword lights filling the battle stage area had started changing. Had the power of w.a.n.gu Ziyi"s Universe Crossing Sword Formation begun weakening?!
Whereas Huang Xiaolong"s Mulberry Sword"s sword qi grew increasingly stronger. The high-level Ancient G.o.d Realm masters soon noticed this as the battle progressed and were extremely shocked.
w.a.n.gu Ziyi even displayed his Universe Crossing Sword Formation, yet he was still suppressed by Huang Xiaolong?!
All of sudden, the cyan sword lights exploded and the air reverberated with booming explosions. Right at this time, the qilin flames on w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s body flew out to attack Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong sneered seeing this; now that w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s Universe Crossing Sword Formation had failed, he had finally fallen back on his qilin flames.
‘It seems like w.a.n.gu Ziyi has reached the end of the line, otherwise, he won’t use his qilin flames despite knowing his frigid G.o.dforce could suppress it in this situation.’
Huang Xiaolong’s Archdevil Supreme G.o.dhead spun, transforming the darkness element G.o.dforce into frigid energy, and met w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s qilin flames attack head-on.
All the vigorous sword qi on the battle stage disappeared in that instant, and was taken over by flames that soared to the sky, whereas the other half of the stage was covered by ice.
w.a.n.gu Ziyi, a peak late-Sixth Order Ancient G.o.d Realm as well as w.a.n.gu Clan’s number one genius disciple, with an outstanding talent and strength, was just the right candidate for Huang Xiaolong to a.s.sess his strength. Hence, Huang Xiaolong was in no hurry to defeat w.a.n.gu Ziyi.
Huang Xiaolong had gained a better understanding of his True Dragon Physique’s potential after the purely physical power battle earlier. The subsequent sword fight between them had significantly deepened Huang Xiaolong’s understanding towards his own sword skill.
On top of that, Huang Xiaolong wanted to carve into w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s soul, regardless of the form of compet.i.tion, he could completely defeat him. He wanted to use this method to make w.a.n.gu Ziyi unable to make any excuse for his loss by making him feel despair.
……
Roughly an hour later, the crowd was staring dumbly at the dishevelled appearance of w.a.n.gu Ziyi, and his distorted face which had bloodstains at the corner of his mouth. For some reason, this sight filled their hearts with mixed and complicated feelings.
At this point, even a blind person could see w.a.n.gu Ziyi was bound to lose.
Just a moment ago, w.a.n.gu Ziyi was sent flying by a punch from Huang Xiaolong, and had rolled to the edge of the stage after cras.h.i.+ng into it.
w.a.n.gu Ziyi was actually going to lose?!
None of them had ever imagined that a peak early Sixth Order Ancient G.o.d Realm w.a.n.gu Ziyi who had successfully cultivated the Crystal Beast Body; the frightening technique of the Universe Crossing Sword Formation; and his qilin flames that were evolving into black qilin flames, would lose!
Moreover, he would lose to Huang Xiaolong.
This was the farthest thing on their minds before the compet.i.tion.
“Huang—Xiaolong!” w.a.n.gu Ziyi got up to his feet. His blood-red eyes were filled with hatred and fury as his deathly stare was fixed on Huang Xiaolong. His mouth curved into a warped smile and he said, “Do you really think you can win against me?!”
At this moment, the flesh under w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s skin stretched irregularly like something wanted to break out from his body. It seemed like he was about to use another ancient divine art.
In the last one hour, w.a.n.gu Ziyi had continuously displayed more than a dozen ancient divine arts. Even Huang Xiaolong couldn’t help but admire w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s many fortuitous adventures and the ability to successfully cultivate all of them. This was because every divine art w.a.n.gu Ziyi had used, had a great reputation.
As w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s flesh rippled, Huang Xiaolong disappeared in a flicker. When he appeared again, he had reached where w.a.n.gu Ziyi stood. Circulating the G.o.dforce from his three supreme G.o.dheads, he punched out with both fists.
A heart-wrenching scream rang on the stage as w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s chest exploded. Flesh and blood splattered into the air and onto the stage. w.a.n.gu Ziyi was helpless despite his Crystal Beast Body.
The grotesque sight left the crowd in astounded silence.
“Tell him to admit defeat.” w.a.n.gu Clan Patriarch w.a.n.gu Rui ordered with a sullen face. If the situation on the battle stage continues, w.a.n.gu Ziyi will end up being crippled by Huang Xiaolong!
According to the four mainlands’ compet.i.tion rules, only the partic.i.p.ant had the right to admit defeat and no one could do so on their behalf.
Right at this time, Huang Xiaolong swung another punch. This time, his punch was integrated with the azure dragon divine fire’s power. The crowd saw a stream of fire transformed into an azure dragon, punching a hole through w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s body as Huang Xiaolong’s fist landed.
The azure dragon wound around w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s body, burning away w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s flesh. His screams pierced the square.
Yet there was no mercy on Huang Xiaolong’s face as he said, “I repay this to you on behalf of my Brother Luo Yunjie!” Then, his fist pierced another hole through w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s body, smas.h.i.+ng w.a.n.gu Ziyi’s heart to a pulp.
“This is my gift to you.”
