It's an irrefutable fact that only Sword Saints can create Sword Domains.
There had never once been an instance in the history of cultivation when a cultivator below the Half Saint Realm reached the threshold of Sword Domain.
So when a sudden pressure descended upon the Silver Mist City, almost everyone had one single thought - this was a Sword Saint!
Even the heavens agreed to this as the clouds began to cover the sky, and the land was lit up by lightning.
"This…"
Everyone in the city looked at the sky. Some were horrified, a few were overjoyed, but all were shocked.
The last time a Sword Saint appeared in the Silver Mist City was when trees could walk, and rocks would talk.
And today, people of this city felt as if they were witnessing a historical moment.
However, not everyone was excited about this -
Outside the city, the two guards and Peak Master Duan stopped in their tracks and stared at the sky.
"This… this is a huge Sword Domain!" Peak Master Duan said aloud.
Suddenly, a bad premonition popped in his mind, 'There's no Sword Saint among us… don't tell me a Sword Saint is guarding the Princess!? Fuck!"
However, a similar thought flashed through the minds of the guards -
'There's no Sword Saint amongst us… don't tell me there's a Sword Saint here to assassinate the princess!? Fuck!'
However, when the three stared at each other - it didn't take a long time before they judged from each other's expression that this Sword Saint didn't belong to anyone's party.
This made all three of them think of the same conclusion -
'Don't tell me we have disturbed a reclusive Sword Saint hidden in the city? Fuck, I will never come back here if I can leave alive today.'
Without any further thoughts, all three of them dropped fighting and rushed back to the Ao Ba Clan.
'I need to protect the Princess!'
The same thought flashed through them once again.
Albeit, for the guards, the princess was Wu Qingwu, but for Peak Master Duan, the princess was Yuan Shuchun.
….
While the whole city and everyone in the surroundings were stunned by the pressure and the dark sky, one group was shocked by something else.
It was the Ao Ba Clan guards and the Gracious Sword Sect entourage.
They were not staring at the sky but rather at a figure in the middle of the ground.
It was the figure of a young man, who had suddenly turned himself into the God of the sky - his eyes turned white, and his upper robs turned into smithereens, revealing his bulging muscles, his hair flying backward, while his whole body was wrapped with lightning!
And the worst of all, this was a never-seen-before colored lightning - Black Lightning!
'Sword Saint….'
A single thought flashed through everyone's mind.
Yuan Shuchun stared at the scene with her eyes open as wide as they could be. She was whispering one single word, "Impossible… Impossible… Impossible… "
With every passing second, it was getting harder for her to believe that the young man in front of her, whom she had never even considered her equal, was actually a Sword Saint!
Just like everyone else in the city, she felt like she was dreaming.
How could there be such a young Sword Saint!? And weird of all, his cultivation was barely reaching the peak of Qi Stabilization Realm!
'But this can't be fake…'
She could see from the corner of her eyes that the lightning striking from the sky was doing big damage to the ground around them.
Even the guard, a Core Formation Realm cultivator, was heavily injured after a single strike from the Black Lightning!
'How could such a thing be faked?'
She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. Not because of her unstable emotions, but rather, she needed help!
After a second, she opened her palm, and something plopped on the ground - it was hard to define what it was because it was crushed.
In the valley, Peak Master Duan paused for a moment and then doubled his speed.
Similar to her, Fu Kai was looking at the scene in pure shock and amazement. Finally, he felt like there was some hope and then remembered the task Ye Tian Yun had whispered to him a few minutes earlier. Fu Kai gulped and began moving once again.
…
The Core Formation Realm guard, who had been thrown back by the sudden lightning attack, stood back up on his feet and got ready to attack.
Even though he knew that the chances of leaving this place were now unexpectedly minimal, he was not going down very easily.
"I will take you with me," He gritted his teeth as he stared at Ye Tian Yun.
Ye Tian Yun, on the other hand, was trying to get used to the Sword Intent.
'Fuck, the first thing I will do after all this is done is practice Sword Domain. I shouldn't have hurried too much. I never got the chance to use it before this fight.'
The guard took Ye Tian Yun's silence as a sign of arrogance.
"You fucker! Just because you have Lightning Sword Domain, you think you can beat me?" The guard gritted his teeth while saying, "There's no way you will be able to handle Sword Domain for long - your cultivation is still in the Qi Condensation Realm!"
It didn't take long for the guard to get a hold of himself from shock and anger to assess the situation.
Having gone through many life and death battles in his life, the guard was a veteran, and he could regain his composure and fight.
The guard prepared himself for another attack.
"Fuck it, as I said, even if I die, I won't go down this easily." The guard gritted his teeth and headed straight towards the young man wrapped in lightning.
However, just as he reached - the young man suddenly disappeared!
"What the fuc- ugh!"
In the next instant - the guard was immediately cut into blocks!
"NOOOO!!!" A shout echoed through half of the city.
