Chapter 744 - Myriad Sword Formation (1/2)
<strong>Translator: </strong>CKtalon
After Tyrant Behemoth appeared, it directly activated Absolute Strength. Space distorted as the Pure Hook and Evil-Slaying swords were attracted towards Tyrant Behemoth.
Although Xia Liuchuan had tried his best to escape this situation, Tyrant Behemoth’s Absolute Strength was just too powerful. He couldn’t escape the two Mythical swords as he flew towards Tyrant Behemoth with his sword.
Zhou Wen didn’t stop as he ran towards the Gate of Supreme Harmony without waiting for the outcome.
Zhou Wen couldn’t run fast while carrying the wooden log. Before he reached the Gate of Supreme Harmony, he suddenly heard a terrifying sound. The shock wave broke through the sound barrier and produced a terrifying sonic boom.
Zhou Wen turned his head and saw Xia Liuchuan levitating in midair. He was wearing a strange black armor that resembled some kind of black jade. It also emitted a mysterious black light.
Xia Liuchuan held Pure Hook and Evil-Slaying with both hands as he crossed them in front of him, blocking Tyrant Behemoth’s punch. He wasn’t sent flying.
That’s… Guardian… Zhou Wen could tell that the armor was somewhat odd. Its aura didn’t seem like a Companion Beast but resembled more of a Guardian.
Furthermore, Xia Liuchuan was able to withstand Tyrant Behemoth in its Absolute Strength state. This wasn’t something an ordinary Companion Beast armor could do.
Xia Liuchuan wasn’t at a disadvantage when fighting Tyrant Behemoth. The two swords in his hands criss-crossed as he fought Tyrant Behemoth.
When Zhou Wen saw that Xia Liuchuan didn’t have the upper hand, he immediately continued running towards the Gate of Supreme Harmony. He had to first escape the log. Otherwise, even if the Guardian was in front of him, he wouldn’t be able to kill the Guardian while carrying it.
Zhou Wen rushed past the Gate of Supreme Harmony and couldn’t help but stop. This was because after passing the gates, there were many people standing in the open space. There were probably more than ten thousand of them.
The ten thousand people stood in a square formation on the empty ground. Each of them held a sword in their hands, but no one spoke. They were silent.
Upon seeing Zhou Wen walk over, the eyes of the ten thousand people looked at him in unison.
In front of the square formation stood a woman in black. She was none other than the Xia Xuanyue whom Zhou Wen knew.
“Zhou Wen, why are you here instead of dueling Xia Liuchuan?” Xia Xuanyue asked Zhou Wen.
“Ahem, I’m just taking a stroll. It’s rare to come to the legendary Forbidden City. I want to see the legendary Hall of Supreme Harmony,” Zhou Wen said with a light cough.
“It’s best you go back and fight. Forbidden City isn’t a place outsiders can enter as they wish,” Xia Xuanyue said.
“Since I’m already here, let me take a look.” Zhou Wen naturally wasn’t willing to retreat. Although the Xia family was already wary of him, he had to make an attempt on the Hall of Supreme Harmony regardless.
Just as Zhou Wen took two steps forward, Xia Xuanyue raised the ancient sword in her hand. The ten thousand people raised the sword in their hands at the same time. In an instant, countless sword beams surged into the sky and condensed towards the ancient sword in Xia Xuanyue’s hand.
With the augmentation of more than ten thousand ancient swords, the sword beam produced by the ancient sword in Xia Xuanyue’s hand was already terrifying beyond imagination. Even the Golden Overlord Sword paled in comparison.
Zhou Wen could roughly tell that the ancient sword in Xia Xuanyue’s hand was similar to the Golden Harp. They could gather some kind of power.
The difference was that the Golden Harp allowed sound waves to resonate, while the ancient sword in Xia Xuanyue’s hand could condense the sword beams of other sword-type Companion Beasts.
Every sword in the sword formation of more than ten thousand people was probably an Epic Companion Beast. With the augmentation of more than ten thousand sword beams, and the fact that the ancient sword might be at the Mythical stage, the might of the sword was probably not inferior to a top-notch Mythical creature.
