480 Stopping After Being Devoid of Energy (2/2)

He counted silently in his heart. When it reached the 145th number, he came back to his senses. He heard that the sword ring was different from before. Be it the five-element spirit sword or the black broadsword in Jueyu's hand, they were crying out.

”145th sword forced back 16 thousand feet!”

...The initial grade 7 realm, actually forcing the pretty much invincible sword prince, whose name shocked the world, to retreat by 10 miles!

At that moment, everyone was silent. Apart from the sound of the swords clashing there were no more sounds. Even the sound of a pin drop could be heard.

Even the people with the lowest cultivation here realized that the most crucial moment had arrived.

Jueyu stood still on the spot, standing still and not moving. That black sword light instantly exploded, thousands of sword shadows like that of a wave, pushing the black flood forwards. A thousand feet of space was forcefully sliced open, cracks were all over. Lines of giant serpent-like black colored cracks flowed all around.

The black flood swept up, thousands of sword shadows seem to swallow up Chuxue who was tens of feet away.

At this moment, Chuxue was provoked by the sword shadow, the anxiousness in her pupils slowly recovered. She seemed to have awakened from the enlightenment state.

However, in the next instance, her eyes opened wide, seeming to return to the 1st sword, her starting state.

The aura of the 5 spirit beasts were changing. They all slightly retracted and returned to a stable state. It was like they had merged into one, many runes and gold lines appeared between the 5 spirit beasts.

It caused Chuxue to be covered in a green glow. The wings behind her which were formed shone a five-colored spiritual light, giving one a feeling of many layers.

Chuxue's sword also sliced out at this moment!

...five spirit sword beast merge!

The hardest to complete sword that Zong Shou taught her, one that Chuxue who hadn't grasped was easily slashed out at this moment.

And when this sword chopped down, it seemed like the milky way had fallen. A sky full of five-colored glow, extremely eye-catching, like the entire heaven and earth, was forcefully cut open!

The front was sliced into 2 pieces without much difficulty.

Following which there was a low 'keng' sound. The originally stable space barrier was collapsing.

Jueyu was forced to retreat, this time he seemed like he was devoid of energy, unable to stop the backward momentum.

It was a thousand feet away before he stopped. His expression was dark and ugly, there was a chip on the black colored broadsword in his hand. There were also tens of wounds on his body.

However, Chuxue surprisingly didn't chase him to strike.

When the wind storm calmed down and everyone looked over, they realized that Chuxue was standing on her original spot, panting profusely, her face was ashen white.

The five spirit god beasts behind her looked listless, shriveled up and devoid of energy.

...She was out of energy! In the end, the girl still lost.

When such a thought rose, only then did the people shockingly realize that along with that sword, Chuxue and Jueyu had fought for 146 rounds!

She had a pretty much one-sided advantage for 146 swords, forcing him back 17 thousand feet. Even that final sword caused Jueyu to be at a never before seen disadvantage.

In the end, she lost only because she was out of energy and was unable to continue!

If Chuxue's cultivation was a little higher if she was also grade 8, what would the outcome be?

Could she defeat sword prince Jueyu?

The ten thousand people here were mostly pumped up. A portion of the experts were thinking back closely to that last sword in their minds.

...So strong! It wasn't as ethereal as the first one but it pretty much merged all the 5 types of god beast sword intent into one.

Causing the strength of that sword to climb into the 9th grade, to slice open the great extinction sword and force him back!

Although the girl had lost, it was honorable!

With just the starting and final swords, under the skies, she would have a bright future!

Outside of the 6 pinnacle swords, there would probably need to be one more person! The cloud world would have yet another rising star.

Chuxue's eyes were at a loss, using all her strength to resist the deep sense of exhaustion in her body.

Looking at the wounded Jueyu she was startled. A moment later did she understand what had happened just now through the pictures in her memory.

She did it. Not only did she block the 1st sword, she even counter-attacked and forced him to be unable to fight back.

She only lost at the 146th sword! She was more than 10 times stronger than the total of Yuanfei and the others added together.

Was it her? Was she dreaming?

She secretly pinched her tights which caused her to feel pain. That pain was real so this whole thing was most probably true.

In her heart, she first felt a little regret and pity that she didn't grab the chance to defeat Jueyu.

Following which emotions surged in her heart. This was sword prince Jueyu, one of the famous three pinnacle swords.

Her strength could be discussed on the same level as him?

However, she felt a sour feeling in her nose and nearly cried out. She didn't know what kind of feeling she was having at the moment. Happiness but sad, excited but touched, disbelief, all mixed up together...
