Chapter 254: Come and Kill Me
The Invincible Sword Soul!
A powerful aura erupted out of Ye Guan, causing the spacetime around him to tremble violently. Ye Guan didn’t make a breakthrough into the Mortal Sword Realm, but his Sword Dao had reached a greater height.
His Sword Intent had become a Sword Soul, and it wasn’t just an ordinary Sword Soul—it was the Invincible Sword Soul!
Needless to say, everyone was stunned. Did he just cultivate a Sword Soul right in front of us and just like that? What in the hell?
The Divine Spirits were filled with disbelief, while the denizens of the Guanxuan Universe felt dizzy from the excitement and joy.
Ye Guan’s strength reached a new height after transforming his Sword Intent into a Sword Soul.
An Nanjing looked down at Ye Guan with mirthful light in her eyes.
Ruler An silently stared at Ye Guan. Her expression was indifferent, but she was inwardly impressed. H-he’s truly a heaven-defying monstrous talent!
Little Pagoda exclaimed, “He’s so talented that it’s actually ridiculous!”
The mysterious voice agreed. “True.”
They didn’t expect that Ye Guan would cultivate his Sword Soul during such an intense battle.
However, the shock that Xuan Yong felt was greater than the shock that gripped anyone else’s heart.
Sword Soul!
Xuan Yong wouldn’t have been so shocked if Ye Guan already had a Sword Soul prior to the fight. After all, there was nothing surprising about someone as talented as Ye Guan cultivating a Sword Soul, but Ye Guan was enlightened about his Sword Soul after seeing Xuan Yong’s Spear Soul!
And that was exactly why it was terrifying…
Xuan Yong stared deeply at Ye Guan. He had ignited his fleshly body in exchange for power, and he was already running on fumes. In fact, his aura was weakening as time went on.
Xuan Yong swept his gaze across the Divine Spirits. They were also staring at him.
Moments later, Xuan Yong smiled.
Boom!
A pillar of flame burst out of his divine soul and rushed toward the heavens.
He had chosen to ignite his soul!
He knew that he would not be able to defeat Ye Guan, who was now able to use his sword soul. Furthermore, Ye Guan still had not exerted all of his power and energy.
Xuan Yong knew that there was no way he could still defeat Ye Guan when the latter had just cultivated a Sword Soul. In addition, Ye Guan had never really gone all-out against him.
In other words, Xuan Yong only had two choices left—surrender or perish.
He had evidently chosen the latter!
The onlookers went silent upon seeing Xuan Yong ignite his soul in exchange for power. The eyes of every Divine Spirit converged on him. They already knew the outcome of this fight the moment Ye Guan transformed his Sword Intent into a Sword Soul.
The Sword Master’s son was much stronger than they thought.
“Xuan Yong!” someone abruptly yelled from the crowd.
“Xuan Yong!” someone else shouted, and the Divine Spirits eventually chanted Xuan Yong’s name.
Xuan Yong turned to look at the Divine Spirits chanting his name. He smiled at them before his gaze fell on the golden spacetime tunnel. Melancholy and regret fleeted across his eyes as he muttered, “Farewell, Man’er.”
He stomped and turned into a beam of concentrated fire that shot toward Ye Guan.
Whoosh!
Powerful flames transformed Xuan Yong’s wooden spear into a towering flaming spear that rushed toward Ye Guan.
In response, Ye Guan slashed out with his sword.
Boom!
Beneath countless gazes, Ye Guan was sent flying at least a hundred meters away.
The flames were soon extinguished, and Xuan Yong was no longer there.
All that remained was a wooden spear...
Xuan Yong was dead!
Everyone fell silent.
Just then, a young woman charged out of the golden spacetime tunnel, and she went beyond pallid upon seeing the wooden spear on the ground. She abruptly came to a halt and stared at the wooden spear in a daze.
Moments later, she ran over to the wooden spear as if she had lost her mind. Tears were streaming down her face, and her voice was trembling as she lamented out loud, “I’m sorry! I was too late!”
The nearby Divine Spirits could only stare at her in silence.
Just then, the young woman smiled sadly and muttered, “We promised that we would be together forever… but it’s fine, we’ll be together in our next lives. Wait for me—”
Boom!contemporary romance
The young woman had ignited her fleshly body and soul!
The faces of the Divine Spirits changed drastically. They wanted to help her, but she had already been reduced to ashes. Only the wooden spear could be seen at where the young woman was last seen.
The faces of the Divine Spirits turned ugly.
Swoosh!
Ruler An abruptly appeared in front of Ye Guan. She picked up the wooden spear and looked down at it with a complicated light in her eyes.
“Someone!” she shouted.
A black-robed old man appeared behind her.
Ruler An handed the wooden spear over to the black-robed old man and said, “Send it to the Heroic Spirits Hall.”
Xuan Yong definitely deserved to enter the Heroic Spirits Hall.
The black-robed old man took the wooden spear and turned around before disappearing into the golden spacetime tunnel.
Ruler An turned to look at Ye Guan.
She was about to say something when Ye Guan shouted, “Shut up!”
Ruler An froze with her words stuck in her throat.
Ye Guan added, “I’m not interested in your nonsense.”
With that, he turned around and walked over to the crowd of young Divine Spirits.
Ruler An was so angry that her chest was hurting.
“Who’s next?” Ye Guan asked the crowd. His voice sounded calm and soft, but every Divine Spirit had heard him.
However, they didn’t dare to say anything.
Xuan Yong was in the top ten of the True Martial List, but Ye Guan had just killed him. In other words, most of them weren’t Ye Guan’s match.
A man walked out of the golden spacetime tunnel. The man was extremely tall, towering almost three meters tall. His face was like a square with lush eyebrows and big eyes, while his arms were like large pillars. His chest was broad, his muscles were bulging with veins.
Overall, he looked like a man to be reckoned with.
He was Heng Shanwu, and he was ranked ninth on the True Martial List!
Most importantly, he was a Physique Cultivator!
The Divine Spirits moved aside to let him pass.
Heng Shanwu walked up to Ye Guan. His voice boomed as he said, “The few people above me on the True Martial List really want to fight you, but I feel like I should fight you first since I’m ranked directly above Xuan Yong.”
Ye Guan looked at him and asked, “Why don’t I just fight the first placer on the True Martial List? I don’t mind it.”
The Divine Spirits were furious. Was Ye Guan playing with them?
The Divine Spirits thought about it and realized that Ye Guan was extremely powerful to the point that they couldn’t say for sure if the True Martial List’s first placer could even defeat Ye Guan.
The Divine Spirits went silent. One had to be strong enough to rebuke others. If one were too weak to argue with others, one could be said to be arguing just for the sake of it.
Heng Shanwu shook his head and said, “If you want to challenge the number one cultivator among the younger generation of the True Universe, then you’ll have to work your way up by defeating us first.”
Heng Shanwu balled his right hand into a fist.
Boom!
A powerful shockwave that sent tremors throughout the surrounding spacetime burst out of his fist. Heng Shanwu charged forward, aiming a punch at Ye Guan.
Ye Guan felt as if mountains were plummeting toward him.
Heng Shanwu was indeed an elite Physique Cultivator.
Ye Guan stared with narrowed eyes at the oncoming fist. The fist contained nothing but Fist Force, but it was already capable of sundering the heavens and splitting the earth.
Ye Guan found himself stuck in a powerful vortex that was created by Heng Shanwu’s Fist Force, and he realized that he was feeling suffocated.
Of course, it was mostly because Heng Shanwu didn’t dare to hold back against Ye Guan, and he decisively used a killing move for his first attack.
Just then, Ye Guan’s Invincible Sword Intent rushed out of him and resisted Heng Shanwu’s Fist Force. At the same time, Ye Guan thrust out with his sword.
Thirty-five swords!
Boom!
A dazzling sword light collided with Heng Shanwu’s Fist Force, creating a massive explosion that sent Ye Guan at least a few kilometers away. When he stopped and recovered, the spacetime around him was still quivering violently from the impact.
However, the spacetime didn’t shatter, and it was all thanks to Mu Tiandao reinforcing the spacetime on the Xuzhen Battlefield.
The people of the Guanxuan Universe frowned. Heng Shanwu was just ranked ninth on the True Martial List, but he was already so terrifying. They could only imagine just how horrifying were those higher than him on the list.
Ye Guan looked down at his right hand and found that it was badly mangled; blood incessantly dripped to the ground.
His thirty-five swords were too weak against Heng Shanwu!
Ye Guan stared at Heng Shanwu and shouted, “Again!”
With that, he rushed forward with his sword in hand.
Schwing!
A brilliant sword light erupted and rushed toward\ Heng Shanwu.
Thirty-seven swords!
The surrounding spacetime quivered violently under the influence of Ye Guan’s terrifying power.
Heng Shanwu saw that, but he didn’t retreat. He advanced and aimed a punch at Ye Guan’s sword. He had decided to face Ye Guan’s attack head-on.
Boom!
A deafening explosion rocketed across the Xuzhen Battlefield.
Both Ye Guan and Heng Shanwu were blasted away upon impact.
Ye Guan flew for thousands of meters, while Heng Shanwu only flew for hundreds of meters.
However, Ye Guan wasn’t idle while he was flying across the air.
His flying swords left dazzling lights in their trails as they made a beeline for Heng Shanwu.
Heng Shanwu crossed his arms in front of his chest to defend himself.
Clang!
The flying swords bounced away as if they had encountered the sturdiest metal in existence rather than flesh. Heng Shanwu emerged unscathed from the attack, and it made him look like he had an invincible physique.
Heng Shanwu glared furiously at Ye Guan. He lunged forward like a tiger pouncing on its prey. He soon appeared in front of Ye Guan and punched out.
“One Fundamental Principle!” he roared.
Heng Shanwu’s move looked ordinary and tacky at first impression, but it was the amalgamation of Heng Shanwu’s training as a Physique Cultivator. A Physique Cultivator need not embellish their moves, and Heng Shanwu had always only cared about cultivating his fist and punches.
He had thrown the same punch over a million times over the course of his life.
The spacetime around Ye Guan abruptly distorted, and even the onlookers who were kilometers away from them could feel Heng Shanwu’s terrifying Fist Force. They took a few steps backward to escape the influence of Heng Shanwu’s Fist Force.
However, Ye Guan remained undeterred. He didn’t retreat. He stood still, and when it was time, he took a step forward to unleash one move.
Forty swords!
However, his sword move was empowered by both his Invincible Sword Intent and Invincible Sword Soul rather than just his Invincible Sword Intent.
Everything trembled—the heavens up above, the ground, and everything in between.
Boom!
A dazzling light blinded everyone as a fist and a sword collided with each other.
Ye Guan and Heng Shanwu were blasted away in the blink of an eye.
However, Ye Guan abruptly vanished into thin air as if he were a ghost. Far in the distance, Heng Shanwu’s eyes shot wide open, and he was about to make a move when he saw a sword hurtling toward him, targeting his eyes.
Heng Shanwu hurriedly closed his eyes.
Schwing!
A blinding ray of sword light struck his glabella, and the force behind the attack made Heng Shanwu retreat frantically. A myriad of sword lights pelted down on him as he retreated.
Heng Shanwu raised his arms above his head and allowed his body to withstand the sharp sword lights. Fortunately, his body was like a fortress wall, and he remained unscathed no matter how many sword lights struck him.
His physique was practically invincible!
A sense of foreboding abruptly gripped Heng Shanwu’s heart.
He opened his eyes, and he saw a sword rushing toward him.
Incredibly, the lone sword[1] contained the power of forty-one swords!
Ye Guan shattered his limits and went beyond forty swords. The power of his attack underwent a qualitative change. There was a huge chasm between the forty swords and the forty-one swords, and Ye Guan had just crossed that chasm.
However, the chasm would only get bigger and bigger, and Ye Guan would find it increasingly difficult to condense the power of multiple swords into one. Fortunately, condensing the full prowess of one more sword into one would drastically improve his overall prowess, so it was worth the trouble.
In the blink of an eye, three more swords made a beeline for Heng Shanwu, and each sword contained the condensed power of forty-one swords.
Ye Guan had unleashed four sword attacks at once, and they were all aimed at Heng Shanwu’s head.
Alarm bells rang in Heng Shanwu’s head, and he responded by stomping with his right foot and yelling, “Immovable Divine Power!”
A mysterious golden band of light filled with runes enveloped Heng Shanwu.
The four swords struck the golden light.
Clang!
The golden band of light immediately shattered, and Heng Shanwu was sent flying away. A crack appeared on his forehead, and blood haphazardly spurted out of it.
Heng Shanwu’s eyes narrowed. He clenched his fists to ignite his fleshly body and soul, but a sword pierced his glabella.
Heng Shanwu abruptly froze.
His fists were still clenched, but he could no longer move. Heng Shanwu had lost!
A deathly silence blanketed the Xuzhen Battlefield.
Everyone’s eyes landed on Ye Guan.
A stream of fresh blood flowed down the corner of his lips.
He had exhausted a ton of energy to unleash such powerful sword attacks. More importantly, Heng Shanwu’s defense was just too strong. Even though Ye Guan managed to shatter it, he still couldn’t avoid suffering injuries as a result.
Ye Guan wiped away the blood on the corner of his lips before sweeping his gaze across the Divine Spirits.
“Who wants to die next?”
The Divine Spirits were rendered speechless.
A fierce light flashed in Ye Guan’s eyes as he roared, “Just call the first placer on the True Martial List here! I want to fight the strongest! Come here! Come and kill me! I’m right here!”
Everyone had no idea what to say.
1. This means Ye Guan doesn’t have to physically wield multiple swords to display the power of multiple swords. He can just wield one and make it as powerful as a certain number of swords ☜
