Chapter 305: Chapter 205: Domain of the Sword (2nd Update)
After a series of light and shadow changes, what appeared before Xue An was actually a small-scale platform.
And his first opponent was none other than a pair of delicate and charming sisters.
“Big brother, this is our first time participating in the trial, please show us some mercy!” One of the women pleaded in a delicate voice.
Xue An slightly smiled and said in an amused tone, “Someone over a hundred years old still acting like a child, don’t you find it disgusting?”
These words caused both women’s faces to change abruptly.
“Boy, you look quite good, it’s a pity, we can’t pamper you today because someone wants you dead!”
With that said, both women disappeared from the spot.
Faced with this scene, Xue An was not the least bit flustered; instead, he closed his eyes.
Suddenly.
At Xue An’s lower back, a dagger emanating a dense omen of ill fortune appeared out of nowhere, then thrust forward violently.
It almost pierced through Xue An’s hairs.
Xue An said indifferently, “Your Void Evasion technique is quite good, but unfortunately, it’s useless in front of me!”
As he spoke, a strand of Sword Qi directly cut through the void.
A woman screamed in agony, followed by blood dripping to the ground and speeding away.
“Still trying to run?”
Xue An only took one step to appear in the distance, then stretched out his hand, and plunged it directly into the void.
“Come out for me…!”
As Xue An’s voice fell, the two women were forcibly yanked out of the void by him.
The two women were terrified, “Save us…”
Their cries for help ceased abruptly as they were pierced through by a strand of Sword Qi and died on the spot.
Meanwhile, the platform began to flicker violently, and as many as thirty or forty people appeared on the platform.
Xue An released his hand, and the bodies of the two women fell to the ground with a dull thud.
This caused the group of thirty or forty to be simultaneously startled.
“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, have you finally shown up?” Xue An said coolly.
The leader of the group had an uncertain look on his face and said coldly, “You’re on the brink of death and still so arrogant?!”
“I said I would let the Ai Family off the hook, but now since he’s seeking his own death, don’t blame me!” Xue An spoke calmly, taking a step forward.
“Come at me together, I’m in a hurry!”
These people glanced at each other, their faces hesitant.
The two women just killed by Xue An were known as the Witch Twin Shas, notorious and tough figures in the eastern region of Kunlun, yet they were directly annihilated by a single sword strike from Xue An.
This suddenly made those who were initially full of confidence lose their nerve.
“Kill him! The Family Head of the Ai Family will reward us handsomely! Otherwise, none of us will leave!” the leader shouted coldly.
Hearing this, they gritted their teeth and charged forward.
These people were mostly at the Half-step Loose Immortal cultivation level, and the leaders were Loose Immortals!
The combined attack of so many was extremely formidable.
Even the trial platform itself seemed unable to bear it, beginning to gradually crack.
Meanwhile, those outside could only see the light screen of the entire trial space flickering intensely.
“What’s happening?”
“Yes, such a thing has never happened before!”
The onlookers outside were full of confusion and uncertainty.
Only a few from the Ai Family looked at each other, their faces filled with glee.
It was certain that a fight had broken out inside, and now, that man will have no place to be buried.
But their hopes were destined to be dashed.
Because inside, facing this terrifying strike.
Xue An’s eyebrows raised slightly, “Sword… Domain!”
Numerous Sword Qi blades suddenly appeared, densely filling the entire space.
Everyone felt a heaviness in their bodies, as if they were unable to use their cultivation levels at all, and naturally, the terrifying strike dissipated into nothing.
In this space, Sword Qi was the absolute ruler!
These people were in utter shock.
Xue An softly commanded, “Kill!”
As the word “kill” came out.
All the Sword Qi, like bone-corroding maggots, immediately engulfed these people.
After a few brief screams of agony, all fell silent.
When the sword light dispersed, nothing but stark white bones remained on the ground.
“Is this all you’re capable of? It’s becoming more and more boring. Let’s finish this quickly!”
Xue An said impatiently, casually waving his hand to slice through the light curtain, then stepped forward and walked in.
At this moment, Shang Tianhe was fighting with a burly man.
The burly man’s offensive was extremely fierce, but regrettably, with just a slight dodge, Shang Tianhe easily kept all the fists and kicks from so much as touching a single hair on him.
A few moments later.
The burly man’s attacks gradually slowed down, and beads of sweat started to appear on his face.
Just then, Shang Tianhe suddenly struck the burly man’s neck with the scabbard of his sword.
“Don’t move!”
The burly man’s body stiffened. After taking a deep breath, he said in resignation, “I admit defeat!”
Shang Tianhe, with an indifferent expression, stepped back half a step and nodded slightly, “You’re gracious.”
From beginning to end, Shang Tianhe never drew his sword.
All his fights were won using the scabbard to defeat his opponents.
Many opponents were greatly irritated by this, thinking that Shang Tianhe was too arrogant, actually hoping to win the trial without even drawing his sword.
But only Shang Tianhe himself understood.
He wanted to nurture the Sword Qi in his chest to the utmost limit; only in this way could he unleash the greatest lethality and annihilate that man in one strike!
As the burly man admitted defeat, the scene before Shang Tianhe shifted, and an old man with white hair appeared opposite him.
Seeing the old man, Shang Tianhe’s expression changed slightly.
“So it is the Diviner. Tianhe pays his respects!”
The Diviner laughed, “This trial, I’m merely here to join in the fun. Go ahead, Young Master Shang!”
Just as the two were about to fight, the platform fluctuated, and then Xue An emerged from it.
“Good, I’ve finally found you!” Xue An said indifferently.
Shang Tianhe looked at Xue An with a dark expression, “What’s going on? The fight isn’t over yet, how could you appear here?”
“I got tired of waiting! All the others have already been defeated by me, now you’re the only one left!”
Xue An’s words left Shang Tianhe stunned.
The Diviner snorted coldly, “Such arrogance at a young age, it’s indeed laughable.”
Xue An turned his head to glance at the old man, frowning slightly, “And who might you be?”
The Diviner proudly said, “I am the Sect Leader of the Diviner Sect from the eastern region of Kunlun, the Diviner himself, young man, you….”
Xue An had no patience for this old man’s haughtiness, “Scram!”
The Diviner, infuriated, was about to scold Xue An for not knowing how to respect his elders.
Xue An waved his hand casually.
A fearsome Sword Qi then pierced directly toward the Diviner’s forehead.
The Diviner, shocked, twisted his body with all his might and narrowly dodged the strike!
Then, his whole body was soaked in cold sweat, his gaze filled with fear as he looked at Xue An.
Xue An said indifferently, “Still dare to talk nonsense?”
The Diviner, pale-faced, shook his head repeatedly and hastily left the trial grounds.
Only Xue An and Shang Tianhe remained on the platform.
Shang Tianhe’s expression grew solemn.
The Sword Dao Cultivation that Xue An revealed with that casual strike had also taken him aback.
Could this fellow also be a Sword Cultivator?
“Draw your sword, let me see just how extraordinary your so-called unparalleled Sword Dao is,” Xue An said, standing with his hands behind his back and speaking nonchalantly.
