“Bang…”
A sound of falling to the ground. Although it was not very loud, it shocked every heart. One by one, they stared blankly in Gu Xing’s direction. At this moment, Gu Xing’s eyes were wide open, fresh blood gushed from his chest, and with an unwilling gaze, his breath dissipated.
A king, along with several cultivators, fell to the ground without a sound. Eyes wide open, carrying an expression of disbelief.
This result was too shocking. Just now they still carried the possibility of certain victory, but in the next instant, they were defeated so thoroughly.
The crowd’s gaze could not help but turn to Ye Chu. On Ye Chu’s finger, there was a sword glow. As the sword glow flickered, patterns of heaven and earth appeared.
The patterns trembled, pulling at space, merging into one with Ye Chu’s entire person. Divine radiance flickered on Ye Chu’s body. The patterns transformed into a green light. The green light danced. Every part of Ye Chu’s body seemed about to erupt with endless sword intent. Ye Chu’s entire person was like a peerless sword, terrifyingly sharp.
“Body transforming into a sword!”
Ye Jingyun stared blankly at Ye Chu. She knew Ye Chu had been comprehending his own path. Back when he fought the three kings, Ye Chu had nearly succeeded. Back then, he used a nearly successful strike to force back a king.
But Ye Jingyun had not imagined that when Ye Chu truly succeeded, the power of this strike would reach such a level. A king transformed from a prodigy, a combined strike from numerous cultivators, was so easily dispersed by Ye Chu.
Ye Chu just stood there quietly. Although his whole person did not emit any power, one could feel a peerless sharpness.
It was as if Ye Chu was indestructible, killing Buddhas who blocked him, killing gods who blocked him. Ye Chu’s blood, intent, body, and spirit all transformed into this intent. All were entrusted upon those flickering heaven and earth patterns. As the patterns flickered, Ye Chu’s sharpness also pulsed without end.
In outsiders’ eyes, Ye Chu had already become like an object. Spiritual sense could no longer detect Ye Chu. If not using one’s eyes, what was detected of Ye Chu was nothing but a sword.
This sword changed endlessly, sometimes fierce, sometimes forceful, sometimes soft and continuous, sometimes overbearing. The artistic conception transformed. Even just standing there, the crowd could still have an illusion of seizing all things in heaven and earth.
Nuo Ran watched as the patterns condensed in the void slowly merged into Ye Chu’s body. Ye Chu’s entire person returned to his previous lazy indifference. Her heart also held raging waves.
A person who had not even reached the king realm had actually walked out his own path and comprehended his own dao principles and mysteries. This was absolutely world shocking. Nuo Ran stared blankly at Ye Chu, watching Ye Chu stand there with hands behind his back, her expression incomparably complex.
Most importantly, she detected that Ye Chu’s dao patterns were very different, ever changing. Although like a peerless sword, they also carried a heart pounding sensation of seizing all things in heaven and earth, and also had the liveliness of nurturing all living beings. Sharpness and killing intent coexisted within, making it difficult for people to comprehend.
“This is my first dao, fusing everything I have learnt to walk out. Named Sword Slaughter!” Ye Chu muttered to himself. Reaching this step was extremely difficult.
All along, Ye Chu had trained his own artistic conception. His primordial spirit was powerful. Plus the divine effects of black iron, his comprehension was astonishing. And with the help of chaos green essence, his harmony with heaven and earth reached an extraordinary level. This allowed Ye Chu to walk out a path belonging to himself.
Seizing the essence from the dao of numerous past sages, then comprehending himself, transforming his body into a sword body.
All intents fused within himself, blended together, creating Sword Slaughter.
The dominance of Sword Slaughter naturally need not be said. Ye Chu used sword intent as the main element, fusing Burial Void Sword Art with his various artistic conceptions, and using the profundity of seizing as support, plus his own comprehension of the true meaning of sword. Only then was it successfully tempered.
If it were merely walking out his own path, Ye Chu would have succeeded long ago. But Ye Chu wanted to walk out an extraordinary path that could break through Supreme Intent. He could only head toward the strongest.
It was precisely because of this that Ye Chu constantly wanted to challenge his own limits and temper himself. Fortunately, this time he succeeded.
The terror of Sword Slaughter was fully revealed in that strike just now.
Ye Chu clearly felt that possessing his own patterns stimulated Supreme Intent, causing Supreme Intent to grow considerably as well. But the growth of Supreme Intent did not affect Ye Chu in the slightest. Ye Chu could suppress it. His mind was exceptionally clear.
Since touching the Supreme Sword, it was the first time Ye Chu felt that refreshing sensation of his entire body belonging to himself. Supreme Intent, at this moment, seemed to have disappeared.
“This is what it means to have one’s own dao and mysteries? Truly terrifying!” The heaven and earth Ye Chu felt at this moment were different. All things really seemed to have life, possessing their own rules.
Ye Chu no longer needed to cultivate autonomously. The spiritual energy of the world merged into Ye Chu’s body. The radiance of the sun shone upon Ye Chu’s body, transforming into the essence of sun and moon, tempering Ye Chu’s physical body.
Ye Chu underwent an astonishing transformation. At this moment, Ye Chu was like a carp that had leapt over the dragon gate.
“Who else wants to come?” Ye Chu stood with hands behind his back. His clothes were stained with blood, but even in such a sorry state, in the crowd’s eyes he was exceptionally tall and dangerous. Every person looked at Ye Chu with reverence. Wherever Ye Chu’s gaze passed, one by one they could not help but step back.
“Young master…” Yang Hui and Yang Ning walked to Ye Chu’s side, looking at Ye Chu excitedly. They too sensed Ye Chu’s astonishing transformation.
“What about you?” Ye Chu’s gaze turned to Nuo Ran. His eyes carried a sharp look. His gaze swept across that plump mature figure, and sword glows jumped out from his body.
Ye Chu was very clear that although this woman had not acted herself, she had directed many people to surround and attack him. Although Ye Chu himself had also provoked these people to act, he did not like people who harboured hostility toward him.
Seeing Ye Chu’s cold expression, greatly looking like he meant to strike and kill her, Nuo Ran’s face also changed. “Sir, do not bully others too much!”
Looking at this woman so charming she seemed about to drip with water, Ye Chu laughed heartily. “Bullying too much? So what if this young master bullies too much? What can you do to me?”
Ye Chu just stood there. His not loud voice constantly echoed throughout the entire space. This sentence was exceptionally overbearing. If it were in the past, countless cultivators would certainly have acted to kill Ye Chu. But at this moment all cultivators lowered their heads, including Nuo Ran. Not a single person refuted.
Nuo Ran bit her lip, feeling Ye Chu’s momentum pressing against her. She could feel as if a sharp sword hung above her head, about to stab down in the next instant.
“Now Nuo Ran understands why the young master acted this way. Speaking of which, shouldn’t the young master thank us?” Seeing Ye Chu’s finger suddenly start to move, she quickly said, “However, to celebrate the young master walking out his own cultivator’s path, I am willing to offer twenty percent of resources to the young master, and acknowledge the young master’s identity as champion this time!”
Ye Chu snorted, staring at Nuo Ran and saying, “You had best keep your promise, otherwise I will definitely kill you!”
When Ye Chu said this, his killing intent was fierce. He did not treat Nuo Ran as a charming seductive beauty.
