Chapter 1470: Battle in the Tunnel

The violet light was dazzling and resplendent. It outshone the sun, illuminating the collapsing tunnel. The terrifying sword Qi was filled with destruction. As it pressed against the space in the tunnel, the tunnel almost fell apart. Three meters of space, near the exit to the Tian Yuan Continent, fell apart. The space there had completely collapsed. All that was visible was a pitch-black void. Strands of invisible laws clung to the ends of the uncollapsed space, connecting the two portions together.

The moment the violet light appeared, the six experts, who were hurrying toward the exit, all revealed different expressions. Even though the space around them had severely collapsed, they could not help but stop and sternly stare at the shocking violet light obstructing them.

“I sense it. It’s the Spiritking’s laws. The person that the Spiritking has warned us about has come,” a Receival expert said with a heavy voice. Before now, they had not really attached much importance to the person that the Spiritking had mentioned, because they were the strongest among the experts of the Receival realm, having all reached late Receival. Even if the Spiritking had described the person as powerful, he was still in the Receival realm, the same level of cultivation as them. Even if he was powerful, it was impossible for him to be too powerful. They may not be able to defeat him, but they were confident they could protect themselves.

However, they truly understood just how powerful the person mentioned by the Spiritking was when they sensed the terrifying sword Qi within the violet light.

The sword Qi had surprised the six of them very much.

As soon as the resplendent violet light appeared in the tunnel, it immediately shot toward the six of them with lightning-like speed. Just the sword Qi was enough to crush the streams of energy.

The streams of energy that even Saint Emperors needed to avoid in the tunnel vanished wherever the violet light passed. It was a strange scene. At the same time, wherever the violet sword light went, a thin layer of cracks would appear in the surrounding tunnel, increasing the rate at which the tunnel was collapsing.

The six Receival experts all narrowed their eyes. They stared at the violet light as it rapidly approached them. They could clearly see a sword encased in the violet glow. Both the dazzling light and shocking sword Qi originated from the sword.

“Let me handle it. Let me witness this person’s Way of the Sword and see just how powerful it is,” sneered Ku Mu. He took a step forward and a terrifying, tremendous presence radiated from him. It pushed the violet streams of energy far away. They were unable to get any closer than three hundred meters from him.

Ku Mu’s skinny figure seemed to become extremely large. His presence was as heavy as a mountain, vaguely dominating. A crescent blade had appeared in his hand. It flickered with a pressing cold light. Mysterious inscriptions carved had been into it.

Suddenly, Ku Mu seemed to have fused with the crescent blade, causing it to shine brighter. It began to radiate with an extremely brutal blade Qi. Afterward, he fused with the sword and sent a terrifying blow toward the violet light.

The strike contained all his power at late Receival. He did not hold back at all.

Ding!

The crescent blade entered the area illuminated by the violet light and collided with the Zi Ying Sword. The clear ringing sound of a collision rang out, immediately causing the tunnel to tremble even more violently. Terrifying cracks filled the entire tunnel. Many spots were so damaged that the vast, endless darkness outside the tunnel was visible.

The Zi Ying Sword’s advance was stopped by that attack. Its dazzling violet light dispersed and the Zi Ying Sword was revealed. It drifted back like a fallen leaf.

Ku Mu was blown back. His silver hair was ruffled and a few slashes even appeared on the clothes near his chest. Some traces of blood could vaguely be seen near the cuts.

“No wonder the Spiritking warned us about him. He really is powerful. The Way of the Sword really is powerful,” Ku Mu said in a cold voice. He grew sterner and stared ahead.

A figure had silently appeared at the entrance of the tunnel. The sword that let out a violet light hovered above his head with another sword, which glowed with an azure light. They loudly thrummed together.
