Chapter 410: Chapter 410: The Sword King Physique Phenomenon, Qiao Jiaxi’s Frenzy
“Disciples of the Sword King Sect, to arms—slay our way through!”
A youth in clothing as pure as snow, wielding an ancient sword, walked through the air. His body burst forth with the profound aura of the seventh layer of the Element Gathering Realm, taking the lead.
“It’s the Sword King Sect’s chief true disciple, Jiang Baige!”
“The seventh layer of the Element Gathering Realm, such a high cultivation level!”
“It is said that this person possesses the Sword King Physique. Now that he has advanced to such a level of cultivation, I’m afraid he can sweep across the Element Gathering Realm, right?”
“That’s not necessarily true, but he could definitely kill me in an instant!”
The onlookers erupted in astonishment.
There were several hundred thousand cultivators present.
However, only about one-tenth of the cultivators actually entered the trial grounds to participate in the extermination of the Underground Cavern Alien Race.
The rest were either there for the excitement or were elders like Sect Master Ye, Liu Ming, Gong Qingqiu, and Ancestor Ning—leaders and elders of sects who were not the targets of the trials.
Young cultivators participating in the trials, like Mo Ying and Qiao Jiaxi, only numbered a few tens of thousands in total.
Clang!
Hundreds of young disciples from the Sword King Sect took the initiative to charge out.
With the top talent Jiang Baige, their chief true disciple, as the first vanguard, they moved through the enemy ranks as if entering a realm devoid of anyone, clashing first with the Underground Cavern Alien Race that surged at the forefront.
Amidst the sharp flashes of swords, dozens of the foreign beings were slain.
But behind the ten spatial gates, an endless stream of the Alien Race continued to arrive.
They were the vanguard.
Their strength might not have been strong, but they had the advantage of vast numbers.
“Aaahhh!”
On the cliffs, Qiao Jiaxi stood in place, assuming a horse stance, bellowing loudly before the crowd.
Boom!
Golden shockwaves burst forth as his hair stood on end, his whole body enveloped in a golden flame-like aura, which was jaw-dropping.
“What is he trying to do?”
Many cultivators were perplexed.
They could see that Qiao Jiaxi was brimming with vitality, with only a slight fluctuation of spiritual energy on his body, but not the kind associated with cultivating “Five Qi Dynasty Yuan”.
Thus, he was a body cultivator.
Thud!
Qiao Jiaxi’s legs pushed hard, and to the shock of hundreds of thousands, he propelled himself airborne, flying toward the trial grounds below the cliffs.
“What!”
“Do body cultivators fly now?”
Many cultivators were taken aback, some even stumbled backward in shock, and a few sat down on the ground in disbelief.
“Sect Master Ye, this disciple of your sect is a body cultivator, and he can fly?”
“Strange, aren’t body cultivators unable to fly?”
Liu Ming, Ancestor Ning, and others turned their heads to look at Ye Feng, voicing their inner questions.
“He is not an ordinary body cultivator,” Ye Feng said.
The fact that Qiao Jiaxi possessed the bloodline of an Ancient Giant God was temporarily not suitable for disclosure.
The trial grounds.
Tens of thousands of the younger generation of cultivators, some in mid-air, others standing on the ground, formed a defensive line, using spells to fight the oncoming Underground Cavern Alien Race.
The battle was fierce.
Even though the participating cultivators were all above the seventh layer of the Qi Refining Realm, and each had a spiritual artifact on their person, they were still besieged by a number of the Alien Race that far exceeded their own.
“Sword Like Soaring Clouds!”
Bai Chunfeng, the number one true disciple of the Divine Wind Sword Sect, roared. Countless swords soared into the sky from him, and in a flash of sword light, hundreds of Demon Soldiers and several Demon Generals were cut in half.
“Roar!”
Bai Chunfeng’s move drew the attention of several High-Rank Demon Generals, who rushed toward him.
Bang!
In just one exchange, Bai Chunfeng was sent flying by a Three-eyed Giant Ape, his robe stained with blood, nearly fainting on the spot.
“Sword King’s Sword, coalesce the phantom!”
At that moment, Jiang Baige, the chief true disciple of the Sword King Sect, charged to the front line.
He extended his finger, drawing an ancient character in mid-air, then grasped it and turned it into a speck of golden light to place on his forehead.
Clang!
The crisp sound of a sword ringing out followed.
Brilliant lights converged atop his head, forming a semi-transparent golden sword. As Jiang Baige pointed his finger toward the distance, this golden sword cleaved through the air, easily slicing several High-Rank Demon Generals in half.
“It’s the miraculous vision of the Sword King Physique!”
Atop the cliffs, many Spirit Sea Realm experts looked on with envy.
It was once said that so-called special constitutions are actually the indomitable will of supreme treasures from ancient times that integrated into the bodies of some cultivators, passed on through bloodlines over time.
Until one day, an appropriate descendant of the bloodline awakened this indomitable will, forming a special physique, and ultimately allowed this power to reappear in the world.
And this is the origin of most special physiques.
“It is said that Jiang Baige’s Sword King Physique was formed by merging with the unyielding will of an ancient sword known as the ‘Sword King’s Sword,’ which, once his mind moves, can summon the shadow of the Sword King’s Sword to slay powerful enemies,”
Mo Minxi stood on the edge of a cliff, speaking softly.
As the Young Alliance Leader of the Myriad Islands Alliance, her status was noble, and she didn’t need to enter the trial grounds to slay the Underground Cavern Alien Race.
Strictly speaking, she was now considered an “older generation” figure.
Mu Ruxue did not go to the trial grounds either.
It wasn’t that she disdained to take action, but she felt there was no need to act for the time being.
Within the trial grounds.
With Jiang Baige wielding the Sword King’s Sword at the forefront, the pressure on the tens of thousands of cultivators greatly decreased.
They engaged in combat with members of the Foreign Clan whose cultivation levels were not far from their own, fighting fiercely.
“Vitality Sword!”
Above in the sky, Qiao Jiaxi clenched his fists, his golden aura surged towards the heavens, drawing the attention of several Demon Generals of the Foreign Clan.
But before they could get close, Qiao Jiaxi had already made his move.
A slash of fierce crimson-gold energy swept out, beheading those few Demon Generals and casually slaying them.
Ancestor Ning watched Qiao Jiaxi attentively, exclaiming in admiration, “What a Body Cultivator, not only has he broken the taboo of Body Cultivation being unable to fly, but he can also execute a Vitality Sword similar to sword beams, his strength is simply terrifying!”
Boom!
Before his words faded, Qiao Jiaxi’s figure leaped forward, and his indestructible heavy punch rained down furiously, shattering the head of another Demon General of the Foreign Clan with domineering power.
“Qiao Junior Brother, well done!”
Long Tianxing laughed heartily.
He entered the Dragon Transformation Form, his combat style similar to that of Qiao Jiaxi, involving fierce close-range fighting, seldom attacking from afar.
His pair of silver dragon claws became even sharper, and glows of light wound around them; even a Middle-Rank Demon General Level Foreign Clan member, once touched by these sharp claws, would not die but would be seriously wounded.
“Sword Drawing Technique!”
Just then, a heart-racing roar sounded.
Everyone turned towards the source.
In the high sky, Huo Yunjie was bursting with sharp sword energy, his left hand holding the scabbard and the right hand grasping the hilt backward, he pulled with all his might, drawing a middle-grade Frost Sword enveloped in cold light.
Tear!
A dazzling blade radiance hundreds of meters long cleaved through the air, plowing a shocking trench on the ground, and any Middle-Rank Demon General that crossed its path was split in two.
“What a Sword Drawing Technique, such power, terror incarnate!”
On the cliff, the leaders of various sects changed their expressions.
“What a waste it would be for such a prodigious Sword Dao talent to not join our Sword King Sect,” murmured an elder with an Ancient Sword strapped to his back.
He was a Supreme Elder of the Sword King Sect, a Spirit Sea Realm Sword Dao expert.
“He’s the Second Disciple of Misty Sect, deeply favored by Sect Master Ye. Can your Sword King Sect offer him the position of the foremost genuine successor?” Ancestor Ning laughed.
Hearing this, the Supreme Elder of Sword King Sect fell silent.
Compete with Misty Sect for disciples?
He wouldn’t dare!
In the middle area of the trial grounds.
Mo Ying stood on a collapsed boulder, with several dozen Underground Cavern Alien Race members lying around her, each cleaved by a single sword strike.
“The aura of these Underground Cavern Aliens is identical to that of the Alien Race that has appeared in the ancestral lands of our Ancient Soul Clan. It seems they come from the same world. If I could pass through these space doors, could I possibly infiltrate their home?”
Mo Ying had a bold idea.
But soon, she quickly shook her head, dismissing the plan.
Enter the Underground Cavern World alone?
Forget it!
That was too dangerous!
Unless Ye Feng and Hu Feifei personally came, her current strength alone would mean marching to her death.
“Roar!”
At that moment, dozens more of the Alien Race rushed over.
“Sword Combat Technique!”
Mo Ying looked at them coldly, forming a sword with her fingers and tracing an arc in mid-air. The Breeze-riding Sword, pointing downward, followed this arc, instantly slaying the Aliens.
Then, she continued to move forward.
The talents of the Element Gathering Realm present had an unspoken agreement.
They led the other young cultivators, standing at the forefront, bearing the greatest pressure.
The remaining Qi Refining Realm cultivators teamed up to deal with the Demon Soldier Level Underground Cavern Aliens that they had intentionally let slip through.
On the cliff.
Ye Feng watched the battle below and quietly took out the Wind Spirit Pearl.
