Chapter 588 - Almighty Sword Technique (1/2)
Right at this moment, Ding Hao slowly pressed down. An invisible force gently brought everyone back to the ground. He shook his head slightly and said, “Don’t worry, I alone am more than enough to deal with these good-for-nothings!”
Before he had finished speaking.
“How arrogant!” a sword pract.i.tioner roared and made a move.
Ding Hao moved gently like a catkin in the wind and casually pointed with one finger.
“Whoos.h.!.+”
Sword Intent was cast.
The sword pract.i.tioner held the sword with both hands. Great force burst out of his body, forming a round s.h.i.+eld of sword Qi in front of him.
“Bang!”
The Sword Intent struck the s.h.i.+eld; it paused for a second, then ran through it.
The sword pract.i.tioner was stunned for a moment. He then looked down and saw a golden flickering flame jumping out from his chest like a naughty little elf.
He opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out.
Instead, he spewed a burning flame.
In an instant, flames burst out from his face, and then out of his body. The fire burned his clothes. Even the magic weapon, the long sword in his hand, was melted and fell to the ground.
Just in a split second, the sword pract.i.tioner who had reached the Primary nine-apertured Martial King realm turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared from the world.
“Flame Sword Intent?” The old man shouted incredulously, “You have mastered two kinds of Sword Intent? “How is this possible?”
Ding Hao laughed loudly. He moved in the air like an exiled immortal and pointed twice in succession.
“Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+”
The Sword Intent flashed as fast as lightning.
In a split of a second, the Sword Intent filled the void.
More sword pract.i.tioners were injured. Ice grew out in some of their bodies. They fell to the ground shrieking and breaking into pieces, while others burst into flames and disappeared as clouds of smoke. Some died of surging vitality: their hair and beards grew crazily until all their vitality was consumed, and decayed in an instant, while others aged beyond recognition and died of exhaustion…
The sword pract.i.tioners panicked at these terrifying ways of dying.
“Ah, Devil. What a devil…!” One of the sword pract.i.tioners was so frightened that he almost lost his mind. Being completely discouraged, he turned around to flee, but his body had been pierced by a wisp of Sword Intent. The next moment, he was engulfed in flames and disappeared into a fireball.
This was a brutal ma.s.sacre.
The condescending sword pract.i.tioners of the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmans.h.i.+p Sect, who had gone to Snow Province as if they were emperors visiting beggars, became powerless as poor lambs. They couldn’t even approach within ten meters of Ding Hao, while he killed them one by one in the blink of an eye as if crus.h.i.+ng ants.
It all happened too fast.
By the time the old man made a move to rescue them, only he and Han Yangjian remained in the sky.
There was a terrifying silence between heaven and earth.
Down below.
Even w.a.n.g Juefeng rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
Was Ding Hao really the young man in the sky who so easily killed the sword pract.i.tioners at the peak of the Martial King realm?
Could it be a trick played by a peerless expert pretending to be him?
Those who were killed like livestock were true masters at the peak level of the Martial King realm. Any of them could make a name in Snow Province and definitely enter the top five of the experts list. But in front of Ding Hao, they were easily crushed like insects.
What kind of opportunity had he stumbled upon in the Sage Battlefield?
How did he become so powerful?
Although he had comprehended the Sword Intents before, he had not yet reached such a formidable level.
Other people reacted almost the same as w.a.n.g Juefeng, all looking stunned. Some of them went blank and had yet to even figure out what had happened. Was it true? Had those nearly invincible sword pract.i.tioners been defeated one by one?
The next moment.
Someone took the lead and shouted; the whole landfill area then burst into a thunder-like cheer.
The Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect’s disciples laughed in tears. They jumped wildly and hugged each other.
“Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking! Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking! Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking! Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking! Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking!”
The crowd shouted this name as if it had a magical power that allowed them to vent their emotions to their heart’s content.
At that moment, everyone was full of tears. “All our brothers and sisters who sacrificed their lives to protect the sect, who now rest in peace under the starry sky, did they see this?” The Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect had not fallen. It still existed in this world.
“Ding Hao! Ding Hao! Ding Hao! Ding Hao! Ding Hao…”
