150 Chapter 150 Sword Flying in the Sky (1/2)
When that sword light dissipated, a ball of sword mist seemed to cover Hu Qianqiu under the night sky. Zong Shou's entire body seemed to turn into a mist, moving along with the sword, hard to discern whether it was real or fake. All of a sudden there seemed to be more then ten Zong Shou's in their view, no one knew where his true body was at.
The sword energy warped and weaved like clouds and mist, moving left and right between the saber images. This time that Tiger King Saber was unable to hit them back in one strike. Instead it was unusually lingering and exceptionally gentle.
That sword stance was so soft it seemed to hold no strength at all, but it was filled with hidden power which clashed with the Tiger King Saber, slowly but surely swallowing the space between the two of them.
In a short twenty-odd stroke encounter, Hu Qianqiu's seven-foot saber had less and less space to move.
Pretty much every sword that stabbed out hit the crucial point of the astral air around Hu Qianqiu, making the energy chaotic. Every point that the sword pointed to was one he had to save and use his saber to block. The Tiger King Saber was trapped around Hu Qianqiu's body and he was unable to use it.
Hu Qianqiu could only feel like he could use less and less energy. After he ninety percent of his own strength was restricted, he still had around a hundred kilograms of power. However, even if he still had many times the strength of Zong Shou, there was no way he could use it. His overbearing tiger strength was being stabbed, cut, and pierced, breaking into pieces.
He didn't feel depressed, but instead really excited, his blood slowly starting to boil. Originally he was just trying to test out Zong Shou's ability, now he couldn't help but be filled with fighting spirit.
”Is this Xie Jun's Mist Sword? No, that fellow isn't as good as you. I know, this is Lingyun Sect's Cloud Shocking God Destroying Sword! Where did you learn this Lingyun Sect secret art from? It's so deep! Did I see wrongly? Is this your true ability? From sword rhythm to sword strength to displaying the true sword intent...”
When Hu Qianqiu said that, Hu Zhongyuan, who was sitting on the carriage, felt his heart start palpitating, his eyes shining brightly.
Lingyun Sect's Cloud Shocking God Destroying sword was one of the legendary techniques in Donglin Cloud Continent. They said that when one cultivated it, they would be able to reach nine meridians of the Heaven Chakra Realm, the spiritual Grandmaster level.
In ancient times, even Celestial Realm experts had been hurt by that sword before.
There were only three to five direct disciples in Lingyun Sect that succeeded in cultivating it. In the entire Sect, there were less than ten people.
However that sentence was not as shocking as what came after.
From sword rhythm to sword strength to displaying the true sword intent... doesn't that mean that Zong Shou has comprehended the intent of the Cloud Shocking God Destroying sword, and he had reached a really high level?
Zong Ling's face was ashen white and green, feeling that Hu Qianqiu's voice was really ear-piercing. The two illusionary shadows in front of him pierced his eyes, but he couldn't shift his gaze away.
The light that exploded out from this half-Monster teen was just too eye-catching, so much that it was hard to accept!
”Good sword! What future ascended, what top talent outside of the Donglin Cloud Continent top sects, that Zong Shi is scum compared to you! No, he isn't even qualified to be scum! An outsider actually daring to try to plot for the Ruler's hard work, what does he think he is...”
Hu Qianqiu burst out laughing, the saber in his hand seemed to be wrapped up by a dozen iron chains, becoming more and more cumbersome and slower.
But the more so, the happier he felt. He felt that his entire life added up wasn't as happy as this moment.
His best friend's son, who everyone viewed as trash, was actually a top sword expert with hidden skill.
The uncertain and unstable Gantian Mountain had a chance to rise up once more, how could he not feel happy about that?
”... that Zong Shi needs to be at least fifty before he can reach the Ascended Realm. I think Young Master can do it by thirty! As expected from the son of the Ruler! However, although your sword is One with the Spirit, today I am going to get serious! Tiger roar, chop!”
His saber that seemed to have been slowing down and was getting tied up, suddenly exploded out under what seemed to be a really impossible situation.
A sharp saber glow wrapped out in all directions, cutting all the illusionary sword shadows into pieces.
Like a tiger that was sleeping allowing a spider to make its web next to it. When it woke up, it causally clawed and destroyed the web, with ease and without using any energy. The overbearing power was apparent!
However just as that saber glow exploded to the maximum and was about to dissipate the last bit of mist, a sword pierced in from behind Hu Qianqiu. Without any sign or sound, it was almost indiscernible, suddenly pushed to the maximum! Like a part of the moonlight, all the killing intent and energy was hidden within.
Hu Qianqiu didn't feel anything, only when that sword light was three inches away from him did his eyes open wide in astonishment. The saber glow swiftly turned back, but he was only able to use his saber handle to block the cold gleam of the sword tip.
A huge strength exploded out. Hu Qianqiu was caught off guard and unable to use much strength to block it. His body was pushed forward several inches.
The two of them had fought for close to fifteen minutes, but this was the first time that Hu Qianqiu's body moved. The glow in his eyes, apart from a little fear, was only excited.
”What a Rising Moon Sword! How exquisite, I nearly died under your sword! If you used it to assassinate no one can block it. If it was that dumb brat Zhongyuan, this sword would most likely have killed him!”
Zhongyuan was speechless; he was close to forty so how could his father still call him a little brat...
