Chapter 302: Chapter 284: Creation of a Sacred Tier Swordsmanship! (4K)
“The kid from Mount Shu actually plans to cross swords with Sun Jian from Thousand Swords Manor? He truly doesn’t know his limitations; he has no idea about the huge gap between a peak Unity Realm expert and an ordinary Unity Realm cultivator.”
Sect Leader Zhang Qinglong of Dragon Tiger Sect crossed his arms in front of his chest and watched indifferently as Lu Changsheng and Sun Jian were about to clash.
Even he wasn’t absolutely confident he could defeat Sun Jian, let alone Lu Changsheng, who he perceived to be of a lower realm.
“Kid, to deal with you, this sword will suffice.”
Sun Jian reached out, and a longsword behind his back was unsheathed, surprisingly an Immortal Sword of medium quality.
To the master of Thousand Swords Manor, a medium-quality Immortal Sword was nothing special.
Lu Changsheng raised his right hand, and the Jade Balance Sword was unsheathed amid flashes of lightning and peals of thunder.
The Jade Balance Sword was likewise a medium-quality Immortal Artifact.
“Oh? Are you planning to use the Seven Star Sword Formation against me? A sword array composed of seven medium-quality Immortal Swords could rival the power of a higher-quality Immortal Sword. That must be your strongest attack.”
Sun Jian knew that the strongest attack Lu Changsheng had used in the previous five rounds of the competition was the Seven Star Sword Formation, and thought that Lu Changsheng was planning to repeat the tactic.
However, Lu Changsheng indifferently said, “I will only use this one sword.”
“Wow.”
There was a stir among the spectators on the viewing platform.
Lu Changsheng was too arrogant. Sun Jian had intended to underestimate him, but he didn’t expect to be immediately countered, with Lu Changsheng likewise showing disdain for Sun Jian.
“Doesn’t he fear death? Sun Jian is only using a medium-quality Immortal Sword because he possesses the peak Unity Realm cultivation. Yet, Mount Shu’s Sect Leader dares to use just one medium-quality Immortal Sword despite being inferior to Sun Jian in terms of cultivation. If Sun Jian were to suddenly harbor a killing intent, Lu Changsheng could end up dead without a complete corpse.”
“The Sect Leader of Mount Shu is too arrogant for his own good; he’s going to suffer a heavy loss.”
Strong cultivators from various states whispered among themselves, none of them optimistic about Lu Changsheng’s chances.
Sun Jian had the peak Unity Realm cultivation and even mastered the Supreme Sword Skills of Thousand Swords Manor. Using the same medium-quality Immortal Sword, their power was worlds apart.
“The opponent is of a higher cultivation; Changsheng is being too presumptuous.”
Even the people from Mount Shu were secretly worried for Lu Changsheng.
The abilities that Lu Changsheng had previously demonstrated fell far short of Sun Jian’s. In a fair fight, Lu Changsheng was at a significant disadvantage.
“The master will definitely be able to do it.”
Disciples such as Lin Qingzhi and Lu Qinglian had unwavering confidence in Lu Changsheng.
“Seeking death.”
Sun Jian’s figure blurred, and in half a breath, he was before Lu Changsheng, thrusting his Immortal Sword!
Lu Changsheng blocked Sun Jian’s attack with the Jade Balance Sword.
The collision of the two Immortal Swords echoed deafeningly.
Lu Changsheng used the Sacred Tier Swordsmanship “Divine Sword Thunder Commanding Art,” summoning Nine Heavens Divine Thunder to annihilate formidable enemies!
“Divine Sword Thunder Commanding Art” was one of the top Cultivation Techniques in this realm, second only to Sacred Tier Techniques.
Lu Changsheng and Sun Jian, united with their swords, clashed continuously in the sky, their black and white figures intertwined, their fierce Sword Qi sweeping in all directions. Nine Heavens Divine Thunder descended from above, pulverizing mountains. The Four Rams Square Venerable Array of the viewing platform was activated to protect the disciples from the various states’ Sects.
“Incredible, Mount Shu’s Sect Leader seems to be on par with the master of Thousand Swords Manor.”
“How is this possible! What exactly is the strength of Mount Shu’s Sect Leader?”
“It must be that Sun Jian hasn’t gone all out yet; he’s just probing.”
“That’s right, he hasn’t used the Supreme Swordsmanship of Thousand Swords Manor yet. As soon as he does, Mount Shu’s Sect Leader will undoubtedly be defeated.”
“However, the Sect Leader of Mount Shu’s insight into the Sword Dao is truly astonishing. Aside from the Seven Star Sword Formation, he has mastered a Sacred Tier Sword Technique. Mount Shu’s heritage is indeed unfathomable, second only to the likes of Star Pavilion, Dragon Tiger Sect, and Thousand Swords Manor.”
The strong cultivators from various states were greatly shocked and dared not underestimate Lu Changsheng anymore.
Lu Changsheng, displaying the Sacred Tier Swordsmanship “Divine Sword Thunder Commanding Art,” summoned Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, causing the ground to shake and mountains to tremble. With such strength, he had every right to be proud.
Even many Sword Cultivators were engrossed in observing Lu Changsheng’s use of “Divine Sword Thunder Commanding Art,” seeking to comprehend the essence of swordsmanship.
“This is a Sacred Tier Sword Technique!”
Mount Shu, Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, Hidden Dragon Temple, and others were deeply astonished.
They had never seen Lu Changsheng use a Sacred Tier Sword Technique before.
“Changsheng’s understanding of the Sword Dao has far surpassed mine. It’s unbelievable. His growth rate is so fast, I’m afraid even the Ancestral Master of Mount Shu wasn’t like this. In fact, Changsheng’s talent might even surpass that of the Ancestral Master.”
Situ Kong had never seen such an exceptional genius whose cultivation and Sword Dao improved so rapidly.
After clashing with Lu Changsheng for the time it takes to drink three cups of tea, Sun Jian disengaged and once again faced off against Lu Changsheng.
Sun Jian had originally planned to casually strike, defeat Lu Changsheng, and then cripple his cultivation.
But for some reason, Lu Changsheng saw through his swordsmanship. He countered every move, thwarting every sword stroke Sun Jian sent his way.
“It seems you are worth me employing our Thousand Swords Manor’s Sect-Defending Skills.”
Sun Jian still looked at ease; he had only been probing until now.
With a flick of two fingers, Sun Jian’s medium-quality Immortal Sword returned to its sheath, and it was replaced by a high-quality Immortal Sword that soared into the sky.
The moment the high-quality Immortal Sword left its sheath, a brilliant cold light burst forth, and a domineering aura of unrivaled supremacy spread out!
The flying swords and magical treasures of all the Sword Cultivators trembled and seethed once more, and even the Jade Balance Sword in Lu Changsheng’s hand uncontrollably swayed as if this high-quality Immortal Sword were the emperor of swords.
“Could it be that this is the Sect-Defending Immortal Sword of Thousand Swords Manor—Imperial Shadow?”
“It is said to be a supreme Immortal Sword born within the Sword Tomb, having absorbed the spirits of countless Flying Swords, ranking as a top-tier treasure even among high-quality Immortal Artifacts!”
