Chapter 216 – Complete Victory
As the sword sliced through Yun Che’s power impact and then stabbed at Yun Che’s shoulder, the corners of Xiao Nan’s mouth also hooked up slightly……. The sharpness of this sword was enough to pierce through fine steel, and he was one million percent certain that under this sword, Yun Che’s shoulder would be pierced straight through.
He felt the Wind Spirit Sword slice through the power that Yun Che had blasted out, slicing through his protective Xuan Force and outer clothing before stabbing at his body, and the arc of his mouth slowly grew wider, but in the next instant, his expression completely froze on his face.
As the Wind Spirit Sword pierced into the flesh, blood splattered on Yun Che’s left shoulder, but the Wind Spirit Sword, too, was firmly stopped at that moment, no longer able to advance by half a point. As if underneath that half-finger thick flesh was simply impenetrable ten-thousand year old metaphysical iron!
What …… what! Xiao Nan was horrified in his heart and could hardly believe his perception.
Yun Che’s counterattack also roared at that moment, as he moved his heavy sword, the air currents in the surrounding ten feet of space were all stirred up in a powerful manner, and the violent air currents that came in his face caused Xiao Nan’s entire body to stand up in sweats, and without even thinking about it, he withdrew his sword at the last possible speed, and flipped backwards with all of his strength, and retreated straight back to ten feet away, and then, out of breath, he looked with shocked eyes at Yun Che’s shoulder.
On the clothes at Yun Che’s left shoulder, a small flower of blood slowly spread, but it only spread for a few breaths of time before stopping, judging from the bloodstains, that wound wasn’t serious, and it had already completely stopped bleeding……. Xiao Nan’s corners of his eyes twitched one after the other, it was a strike that he had made with almost all of his strength, and in conjunction with the Wind Spirit Sword, which was still being a Ground Xuan Artifact and was incomparably sharp, a frontal stab with a sword. Even boulders and steel can be like piercing through tofu, but did not pierce his body, it seems that even his bones have not touched …… only flesh wounds.
Not only him, everyone outside the arena, including Ling Wushu who had seen it most clearly were all filled with disbelief. They had all watched with their own eyes as Xiao Nan stabbed Yun Che’s body with a sword with his full strength. The severity of this sword was such that even with a peak Spirit Xuan Realm Xuan Force protection, there was a possibility that it would be pierced through, but on Yun Che, who was only at the True Xuan Realm, it was obvious that it had only injured the skin and flesh.
“What’s going on?” The smile on Xiao Manyu’s face tightened and he frowned tightly.
“…… It should be that Yun Che’s body is wearing some kind of protective armor! That’s the only explanation!” Xiao Maniac Lei said.
Yun Che’s body naturally did not have any protective armor, only a thin layer of outerwear. Although his protective Xuan power was only at the True Xuan Realm, not only did he have the second realm’s Great Dao Faustian Skill to protect his body, he had also just had his body quenched by the blood of the Dragon God – it wasn’t just any ordinary dragon’s blood, but rather, it was the blood of the Dragon God! Now, Yun Che’s bloodline strength and body strength in the “Dragon” lineage was completely no less than that of an ordinary true dragon……. And, could the Earthly Xuan Sword, which was catalyzed by the Xuan Force of the Spirit Xuan Realm, pierce through the body of a true dragon?
Of course not!
Not to mention that Yun Che still had the True Xuan Realm’s Xuan power to protect his body, even if he didn’t have this layer of protective Xuan power, and was just standing there defenselessly and letting him stab him, he wouldn’t be able to use the Wind Spirit Sword to pierce through Yun Che’s body.
“A very good sword.” Yun Che glanced at the wound on his shoulder with a flat expression and said in an appreciative tone. This sword had also sounded an alarm for him, the reason why the four great sects were powerful, the power of their sect’s Xuan Gong Xuan Techniques was one of the main reasons, and even though this Xiao Nan in front of him could only be considered the bottom of the list amongst the disciples of the four great sects, he must not be careless. If it wasn’t for the fact that his body was extremely strong, if it was someone else, he would have already suffered a great loss just now.
Yun Che stopped talking nonsense, took a step forward, and blasted out with a sword.
Along with the trajectory of the heavy sword swing, the air wave that seemed to turn into substance accompanied by a slight distortion of space rushed straight at Xiao Nan, Xiao Nan quickly collected his mind from the shock he had just experienced, his eyes glared, and his Wind Spirit Sword chopped out one after another, waving out a storm of sword shadows that quickly dispersed the impact that came his way……. However, Yun Che’s simple sword, Xiao Nan swung out more than twenty swords before resisting all of them. More than twenty swords before he was able to resist the full force of it, a fact that caused Xiao Nan’s heart to tighten once again.
In the previous two rounds of the group stage, he had also paid attention to Yun Che’s matches, and had completely scoffed at those sect disciples who had easily lost to Yun Che.
And now, having personally fought against them himself, he clearly understood why those people always lost so quickly …… because he understood how much terrifying power lay beneath Yun Che’s simple sword.
He had only exchanged a few glances with Yun Che, and the continuous shock had already caused his mental defenses to be close to collapsing, and when he looked at Yun Che and the pitch-black giant sword in his hand, the horrifying feeling of “simply impossible to defeat” quickly grew in his heart.
“Storm Eagle!!!”
Xiao Nan took in a huge breath, and the sword qi on his Wind Spirit Sword stirred, each strand of breath as sharp and piercing as a steel needle, as he let out a long whistle and flew up, stabbing Yun Che’s Heavenly Spirit with his sword. And Yun Che didn’t dodge or avoid at all, meeting his Wind Spirit Sword with a sword swing ……
Boom!
The heavy sword impacted the air, surprisingly bringing up a dull roar, that terrifying air wave Xiao Nan, although he had already personally experienced it, was still shocked, the green light on his body flashed, and his body quickly turned, his attacking orientation suddenly changed, turning to attack Yun Che’s lower plate, but Yun Che’s heavy sword also followed him as if he were a shadow, quickly chopping downwards, forcing Xiao Nan to fall back with all his might, dangerously close to death.
He was certain that if he was swept by his opponent’s heavy sword storm, serious injuries would be light!
From the terrifying heavy sword blast, Xiao Nan could imagine how heavy that heavy should be, and harnessing such a large sword, the movement should be relatively sluggish, and the breakage and consumption should be much greater, then, the most suitable tactic was naturally to use speed to hold back and find the breakage for a sure-kill one on one strike.
Xiao Zong’s Xuan Li attributes were “Wind” and “Thunder”, with the most of them practicing “Wind”. The “Heavenly Eagle Skill” was also a magical Xuan Gong that could greatly increase the agility of the body. Xiao Nan started to circle around Yun Che with his swift stance and light and swift sword techniques, but he immediately realized that Yun Che was dragging such a heavy sword, and the swiftness of his stance was not even the slightest bit better than his …… That’s all, even the speed of swinging the sword was not at all better than his. Although he was unable to instantly swing several swords in a row, his heavy sword only took a short moment to swing from a standstill to completely swinging out, and completely retracting after swinging out, making it impossible for people to see a trace of heaviness in it.
Xiao Nan attacked more than a dozen times in a row, but was forced back by Yun Che’s light-hearted sword, not only was it ineffective, but he also retreated time and time again in a state of distress and danger.
Although the power of the heavy sword was enormous, shouldn’t it also have a great deal of flaws! Why is this person who uses a heavy sword, unexpectedly without a break …… Xiao Nan’s forehead was dripping with sweat, gritting his teeth and secretly laughing.
“Heavenly Eagle Infinity Sword!”
Xiao Nan leapt up high, the eagle shadow reappeared behind him, and stabbed Yun Che’s chest with a sword in the air……. This was the sword that he had used to cut through Yun Che’s strength just now, and he knew in his heart that the first time he was able to make it work was a surprise, and the second time would be difficult to make it work like the first time, but the longer he faced Yun Che, the more he felt a deep sense of powerlessness, and the only thing that he could rely on was this sword. The only thing he could rely on was this sword.
Puffing ~~~~~
The Wind Spirit Sword sliced through the air, sliced through space, and stabbed straight down with an ear-piercing tearing sound, this was a sword that could slice through all the power, and with the previous lesson, Yun Che should have immediately avoided and flanked the counter-attack, but Yun Che still stood still, the Overlord Giant Sword ferociously ruffled upwards, and a flat whisper came out of his mouth: ”You slice through my sword and try it! ”
Yun Che’s sword used six points of force, if the previous sword was a gale, then, this sword was a hurricane no less, Xiao Nan’s strength could break through the wind in a gale, but if he faced a hurricane, he would only end up being crushed.
The Wind Spirit Sword’s sword qi and sword momentum was destroyed cleanly in an instant, the sword body emitted a warbling buzz, Xiao Nan was shocked, his swooping body flipped violently, his entire body’s Xuan Power surged crazily, but he was still unable to completely resist the impact of Yun Che’s sword, his Xuan Power defense was weakened by layer upon layer, and in the end, it finally collapsed completely, and a force that wasn’t canceled out rushed into his body, causing his entire body to quake tremendously.
Xiao Nan landed ten feet away, his face was pale, a mouthful of reverse blood rushed out and slowly slid down along the corner of his mouth.
The surroundings were silent as all six people from the Xiao Sect stood up, their faces filled with shock.
Yun Che did not take advantage of the opportunity to chase after him, and stood in place …… And it was only at this moment that people were shocked to realize that throughout the entire process, both of his feet had remained in one place, and had not moved at all!!!!
Xiao Nan’s face was frightening, his mouth was roughly panting like a cow, on the contrary, Yun Che was breathing steadily, his face was flat and unperturbed, and he could not see any exertion at all. The corners of Xiao Nan’s mouth moved, and his arm eventually dropped down ……
“You are much more powerful than I imagined, …… I admit defeat.” Xiao Nan disheveled.
“The same goes for you, you’re a bit more powerful than I imagined.” Yun Che smiled faintly and glanced at the wound on his shoulder.
Being said so by Yun Che, Xiao Nan’s heart actually suddenly felt a faint sense of fulfillment, and even the loss of the tragic defeat faded away a lot as he raised his head and smiled at Yun Che.
“Xiao Nan admits defeat, Cang Feng Royal Family Yun Che wins …… into tomorrow’s sixteen position elimination match!”
As soon as this result came out, the Sword Argument Stage that had been quiet for some time was once again replaced by clamor, and as they looked at Yun Che, who had walked off the stage peacefully, a pair of eyes all went completely straight …… that’s right! This penultimate person among all the disciples, after entering the thirty-two position battle, had actually killed another Xiao Sect disciple and killed his way into the top sixteen!
“Nan Di, don’t be discouraged, if it wasn’t for the fact that he was wearing high-level armor, you would have won by the time you had your second sword. It’s a pity that I was in the second group, otherwise I might have been able to avenge you.” Xiao Maniac Lei patted Xiao Nan’s shoulder and comforted him.
“No,” Xiao Nan shook his head, “He wasn’t wearing any armor at all. That sword, he completely blocked it with his own body. His body, it’s almost like it’s made of iron!”
“What!!!” Xiao Maniac Lei’s brows furrowed as he and Xiao Maniac Yu exchanged glances, both of them showing shocked expressions.
“Senior Brother Yun, are you alright? Are you seriously injured?” As soon as Yun Che came down, Cang Yue greeted him full of panic and worry, grasping a large handful of long-prepared healing pills and Xuanxuan Recovery Pills in her hand.
“It’s fine,” Yun Che smiled unconcernedly, “It’s only a flesh wound, the bleeding has already stopped, and there’s no need to put on any medicine, it’ll be all healed before the sun goes down.”
Yun Che’s words were definitely not an exaggeration, with his Great Dao Faust Skill that had currently reached the second realm, this kind of light injury would be able to recover in a matter of minutes.
But of course, Cang Yue would not be so simply relieved, and Yun Che was eventually pulled to the side by her, carefully and cautiously wounding the medicine once more, and wrapping a bandage around it.
On the Sword Discussion Stage, the second match had already begun.
The two sides of the match were Ling Jie of Heavenly Sword Villa, and Mu Xiongyi of Heavenly Pistol Thunderfire Fort. The former was at the sixth level of the Spirit Xuan Realm, while the latter, was at the eighth level of the Spirit Xuan Realm. In terms of Xuan power level, it ranked at the top of the list outside of the disciples of the four major sects!
