Chapter 259: Twenty Years of Refinement, A Sword Saint Slays a Martial Saint (Part 1)
Chapter 259: Twenty Years of Refinement, A Sword Saint Slays a Martial Saint (Part 1)
Boom!!!
A terrifying explosion shook the entire city, and countless raindrops fell, shattering into black-colored powder.
The ground began to crack, and the city crumbled endlessly!
The entire Ink City seemed unable to withstand this terrifying impact, as if it were about to shatter into pieces.
Two mushroom clouds, each towering a hundred zhang high, rose and slowly merged, intertwining to form a layer of mushroom clouds filled with scorching destruction, which then flowed down from both sides.
On the ground, however, there was a figure as swift as lightning, tearing through the air like a thunderbolt.
It was as if the entire city had been split in two, separating heaven and earth!
Against the surging ripples and waves!
The shockwave that shattered everything struck his body, but it couldn't move him an inch, as if an invisible force had directly pushed him away!
Eight steps across, eight steps as swift as thunder!
Li Che unleashed his full power, revealing all his hidden cards!
The straw hat exploded in the raging wind, but the Ox Demon mask remained intact, shimmering with light, as if arcs of electricity were dancing out of his eyes, constantly crackling and writhing!
Ascending!
Dragon Elephant!
Uniting Form!
Heavenly Trigram!
At this moment, Li Che was like a fully ignited bullet, unleashing the most extreme burst of power and strength!
His martial will was refined to the extreme!
Li Che's martial realm, though only at the Primordial Grand Master level of Heaven Man Unity,
However, in terms of combat power, he was no less than any Supreme Grand Master.
But when facing a Martial Saint, he was still a bit lacking, feeling a bit stretched.
Even now, with several Divine Lineage Martial Arts cultivated to the Great Accomplishment level, he was still a bit short! But Li Che had no fear!
His various hidden cards poured out, and even a Martial Saint would have to shed a layer of skin!
Moreover, Li Che believed that with the Dragon Elephant Vajra Fruit, he would definitely gain a great deal of growth and improvement in its maturity!
Even if it was just for the maturity of the fruit, it was enough to make Li Che fight with all his strength against Su Wenxi.
Not to mention, Su Wenxi was the head of the Su Family...
That Su Family head that Li Che detested so much!
With a clench of his five fingers, the Mysterious Gold Eight Treasures Thunder Dragon Staff immediately fell into Li Che's hands. His tall figure stretched, his muscles bulging like tubers, and the thick veins on his body roared and trembled.
The surging Primordial True Energy gushed out from his meridians, wrapping around the Mysterious Gold Eight Treasures Thunder Dragon Staff!
In an instant, the Primordial True Energy seemed to merge with the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Pole, erupting with ferocity!
Huff! Huff! Huff! Huff!!!
Li Che took a heavy step forward!
In an instant!
In the two mushroom clouds that had exploded and risen a hundred zhang high, a sudden void appeared, as if torn open by infinite power. Su Wenxi's black hair danced wildly, and his skin seemed scorched by extreme heat, turning red, and one could even see the blood within his veins, solidified like pearls!
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss...
Much of his flesh was scorched and blurred, revealing charred blackness.
Even a Martial Saint's body suffered significant injuries at this moment!
"Injured..."
"I actually... got injured!"
Su Wenxi opened his mouth, and with each breath, dragon-like energy flowed out.
The twin mushroom clouds' bombing had terrifying power, and what harmed him was not the scorching energy or shockwaves from the explosion, but the force that distorted the field, causing an extremely intense Divine Essence Crystal impact on his Primordial Spirit! It was a strange radiation force, like the Divine Essence Crystal radiation from the Strange Temple compressed to the extreme and then released!
Terrifying!
Extremely terrifying!
This Netherworld had countless strange and formidable means, not to be underestimated!
Bang!
Su Wenxi's body moved, and in an instant, he charged like thunder towards the exploding mushroom cloud.
He wanted to break out of this field that disturbed his Primordial Spirit!
Su Wenxi's biggest weakness wasn't his physical body or martial skills, but his Divine Essence Crystal! His Divine Essence Crystal cultivation was only at the Divine Essence Transformation Great True Person realm, which was his greatest flaw and the most likely defect to be exposed in this battle.
If it were a battle between Martial Saints, Su Wenxi wouldn't be afraid unless both martial arts and Divine Essence Crystal had reached a breakthrough, shedding the mortal Divine Embryo. If it were a pure clash between Martial Saints, everyone's Divine Essence Crystal cultivation was equal, and he wouldn't worry.
But in this confrontation with the Netherworld's siege, he felt a hint of unease!
This explosion of strange Divine Essence Crystal...
Actually injured him!
Boom!!!
Divine Essence Crystal particles raged wildly, and the Divine Essence Crystal was extremely active, as if it were burning the void into nothingness, making it almost impossible for one's Primordial Spirit to expand even a bit.
It was as if his spiritual sense was about to be severed!
At this moment, Su Wenxi's five senses and six perceptions were as if completely severed!
This sense of unease made him tear through the center of the Divine Essence Crystal explosion without regard for anything!
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!!!
As soon as he burst out of the twin mushroom cloud explosion.
Su Wenxi felt a thunderous blast!
At this moment, he was at his weakest state.
The power of heaven and earth countered the twin mushroom cloud explosion, and the impact of blood qi and strength broke through the Golden Monkey and You Liqing...
At this moment, he was exhausted, temporarily unable to regenerate.
Although a Martial Saint's power was endless, constantly generating new strength, but... it still needed to be regenerated!
And at this moment...
The assault appeared!
Despicable!
Su Wenxi was shocked, his anger surging, reaching an extreme he couldn't suppress!
All kinds of countless mechanisms and hidden weapons, numerous automaton beasts, the unkillable You Liqing, and various long-range sniping...
Now, there was also an ambush!
It had to be said that the timing of this ambush...
Was extremely well-calculated, as if everything had been planned!
It made Su Wenxi think of the Hunter Pavilion's Stellar-level assassin's assassination!
That grasp of opportunity, that control of timing...
Perfect to the extreme!
Su Wenxi's eyes widened, like two rolling suns!
He saw the approaching thunderbolt clearly!
He saw the figure wrapped in blood qi after the lightning dissipated, and that adorable cute ox mask!
"Netherworld..."
"Ox Demon!!!
The explosion of rage echoed from Su Wenxi's mouth!
According to the investigation of Netherworld information, the earliest member of the Netherworld to appear! The cunning and sinister, vicious and ruthless... Ox Demon!
Li Che didn't respond.
His gaze was cold and ruthless, and on his towering body, scorching blood surged like raging waves, flowing like molten iron, turning his exposed skin a deep crimson with black streaks. Even more so, there were patterns like dragon elephants spreading across his body.
It was like a mandala blooming in the depths of hell.
Pressure—
An overwhelming pressure akin to moving mountains and overturning seas!
Li Che's body trembled, and his hairs stood on end. Even with such a perfect opportunity and a decisive killing chance, he still felt a chilling sensation spreading from the top of his head, enveloping his spine.
Martial Saint...
This was the Martial Saint!
In Li Che's chest, the Dragon Elephant Vajra Fruit trembled. With each beat, his blood surged like thunder, resonating within him.
It was the excitement of facing a formidable foe!
It was the anticipation of an impending clash!
The Dragon Elephant Vajra Fruit's horizontal cultivation enhancement was immense, urging Li Che to tirelessly challenge stronger opponents.
Unfortunately, this fruit had fallen into the hands of Li Che, a man who was always cautious and timid.
Without at least a 90% certainty, Li Che would never take action lightly. This had always been his approach.
As a result, the fruit rarely found satisfaction, joy, or release.
But today...
Li Che faced a Martial Saint, and even though he had carefully calculated his moves, he was still at a disadvantage. At this moment, the fruit finally came to life!
If one is a hero, one should challenge the strong!
"Seeking death!"
Su Wenxi stood tall, his body covered in blood, yet his aura at this moment was unwavering, showing no signs of weakness.
Su Wenxi was enraged to the extreme!
Ox Demon?!
Sensing the aura, a mere Primordial Grand Master who had achieved unity with heaven and man dared to assassinate a Martial Saint?!
How audacious! Who gave him the courage...
Was he worthy?!
Su Wenxi's pores seemed to emit scorching heat waves, and his powerful martial will, strong enough to freeze the air, descended upon Li Che.
The heavens and earth seemed to be stirred, and a pillar of energy spontaneously emerged from nothingness!
Su Wenxi's arms, burned and scarred, suddenly swung up, and as his five fingers clenched, blood mist exploded from his wounds!
"Divine Lineage Nine Heavens Dark Eagle Rending Sky Fist!"
Screecchhhh!
A piercing shriek filled the air!
The fist strike created an ear-splitting sonic boom!
As the Divine Lineage rotated, it was as if an enormous dark eagle spread its wings and smashed into the Ox Demon, who was charging with the might of a dragon elephant.
This was the power of heaven and earth that only a Martial Saint could harness!
It slammed into Li Che's body, intending to freeze him in place.
Just as Su Wenxi had previously suppressed You Liqing, he now intended to crush the Ox Demon and finish him off with a single punch!
Li Che's fingers tightly gripped the Dark Golden Eight Treasures Thunder Dragon Staff.
At this moment, his mind was crystal clear!
Thunder Magnetic Body!
Buzzzzz!
It was as if arcs of lightning were dancing, distorting the field around him, instantly freeing Li Che from the control and influence of the Martial Saint's harnessed power.
The Thunder Dragon Staff in his hand, entwined with the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Pole and Primordial True Pole, vibrated and shook.
In an instant, a terrifying demon python emerged from behind Li Che, accompanied by a Dragon Elephant shadow, and crashed into the domineering dark eagle!
The eagle clashed with the dragon elephant and the demon python!
The collision occurred almost instantly!
Boom! Boom!
The wind raged, and clouds burst!
As the two forces collided, streams of energy resembling dancing dragons ravaged the ground around them.
Terrifying ripples spread, forming concentric circles of waves.
They unleashed one wave of impact after another, shattering even the shockwaves from the twin mushroom clouds.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The ground, already reduced to ruins, shattered under Su Wenxi's foot, and cracks spread in all directions.
Su Wenxi, at a disadvantage, retaliated at this moment, meeting Li Che's fierce attack head-on!
Behind the two of them, the twin mushroom clouds continued to flicker, and the intertwining streams of energy from their clash were a sight to behold.
Su Wenxi's body trembled, and his eyes revealed a look of disbelief.
A Primordial Grand Master?!
What formidable power!
He, a dignified Martial Saint, had his overwhelming fist intent, infused with the might of heaven and earth, blocked!
A Primordial Grand Master's strength had countered a Martial Saint's fist intent?!
This Ox Demon...
What an arrogant genius!
With his powerful physique, domineering true pole, and unmatched will, he was truly...
A marvel to behold!
Bang!
Li Che's eyes beneath the Ox Demon mask sank slightly.
Still not enough?!
With all his power unleashed, his all-out strike, and the ultimate display of the Divine Lineage Martial Arts...
Was it still not enough to kill this Martial Saint?
This was the Martial Saint! Even at Su Wenxi's lowest point, he was still the pinnacle of power that Li Che could match at this moment!
Since it had come to this...
He could only use his ultimate move!
A flash of extreme sharpness appeared in Li Che's eyes.
The next moment...
His mind moved...
Thick fog surged and roared from the Ink City, enveloping the entire city in violent tremors, as if the earth itself was enraged.
Su Wenxi's black hair whipped in the wind, and his body, exposed to the fierce winds, showed a furrowed brow.
He looked around, and his eyes flashed with an unusual light.
Was this...
Knowing that he couldn't kill him, was he going to throw him out?!
Suddenly, his expression changed abruptly.
Deep down, a sense of unease trembled within him.
Boom!
The surrounding black ink mist swirled, and a powerful sense of falling engulfed the area.
...
...
"Huang Jianjiu!"
A furious roar echoed.
Three of the Su family's supreme Grand Masters joined forces to counter Huang Jianjiu's sword, but they were all severely injured and sent flying, bleeding profusely.
Their faces were a ghastly shade of yellow, reaching the epitome of ugliness.
It was just a single sword strike, yet it nearly killed all three of them!
Too powerful!
At this moment, Huang Jianjiu's strength was at its peak!
Is Su Wuming strong?
Ranked third in the Genuine Transmission List of the Heavenly Origin Sect, his cultivation had reached the pinnacle of the Three Flowers, yet he was still beheaded by Huang Jianjiu's sword!
And now, the entire Su family was drenched in blood!
Countless Su family members met their tragic deaths at the hands of Huang Jianjiu.
Huang Jianjiu seemed to know every member of the Su family intimately. Those who had married and broken their chastity seals, those who had absorbed the cultivation talents of women, all had their heads severed by his sword!
The Su family, with its three thousand years of history, was now immersed in a bloody tide!
This was an unprecedented disaster for the Su family!
Huang Jianjiu didn't engage in a prolonged battle with the Divine Essence Great True Person of the Su family, nor did he confront the Grand Master. Instead, he specifically targeted members of the Su family with his sword strikes.
Each sword took a life, and the blood flowed like a river!
Heads fell to the ground, making a dull thud with each impact.
Accompanied by the shrill cheers from the sealed courtyards, it was as if a unique and bizarre celebration had begun.
Suddenly, Huang Jianjiu paused in his drinking, and his eyes narrowed sharply.
He abruptly looked towards a spot in the void. The crimson irises in his dark eyes spun, and the nearly extinguished sword Qi between his eyebrows instantly ignited into the most terrifying sword light!
"He's here!"
Huang Jianjiu's sword slashed out, and a terrifying sword intent burst forth from his body in an instant!
It was like the most dazzling moonlight in the night sky!
The Sword Immortal's sword seemed to be undergoing its final glorious transformation, as if it had consumed all of Huang Jianjiu's vitality!
At this moment, Huang Jianjiu closed his eyes.
He hung his wine gourd at his waist.
Countless scenes flashed through his mind.
"In my youth, I was dull and slow in martial arts. After meeting Zhu Qing and obtaining my first sword, holding it felt like holding onto love..."
"Later, my sword talent awakened. Practicing the sword, observing the sword, anything related to the sword, I could learn it with a single thought. My sword gradually revealed its sharpness, but in truth, I only wanted to use my progress in the sword path to earn her praise and admiration..."
A sigh echoed throughout the Su family manor.
In one of the courtyards, someone had already covered their face, sobbing uncontrollably.
"When my beloved married, my heart withered, and I devoted myself entirely to the sword. I entered Lu Xuan Sword Immortal's temple to practice and observe the sword, and eventually obtained the Sword Immortal's legacy..."
"With this sword, I should have understood the true essence of the sword path and achieved the realm of the Sword Saint!"
"But the divination in my heart made me hesitate for twenty years with this sword."
"Today, I let it go."
"For twenty years."
"I polished a sword."
"This sword, polished nine times."
"With this ninth sword, I enter the realm of the Martial Saint!"
Huang Jianjiu held the Sword Immortal's sword at an angle, and in an instant, countless rays of light dissipated, as if cleansing the sword of dust!
With a tremor, the sword intent soared towards the heavens!
In that instant, the sword light divided into nine.
The sword light shimmered, resembling a thousand trees in full bloom with pear blossoms!
