Bang!
With an extremely heavy thud, Li Jingxing’s hands suddenly clamped together, forcibly trapping the sword strike from Jian San between his palms.
Hiss!
The entire audience collectively gasped, their faces showing expressions of shock.
Because it was simply too unbelievable.
It must be known that this was a sword strike executed by a top master of the Sword Dao!
Its unparalleled sharpness was enough to annihilate anything daring to stand before it, yet it was forcibly blocked by Li Jingxing’s hands.
Even Jian San couldn’t help but show a serious expression, then shouted loudly.
"Open!"
Boom!
The sword beam she wielded shattered inch by inch and quickly spread to Li Jingxing’s hands.
Li Jingxing’s body swayed slightly, feeling like an angry dragon was trying to break free from his grip, he couldn’t help but shout coldly.
"Seal!"
With those words, an extremely brilliant light shot from Li Jingxing’s eyes, and unparalleled pressure descended, sealing the impending explosive sword beam into nothingness.
Jian San let out a muffled groan, retreating half a step back, clearly at a disadvantage in this move.
But she was not frightened at all; instead, she took another step forward.
With that step, the entire Sword Palace Sector shook.
The spectators trembled incessantly, and those with weaker cultivation levels even directly fell from the stands.
In an instant, the whole world fell silent.
Li Jingxing’s eyes also showed a trace of seriousness.
Because at this moment, in Jian San’s eyes, a radiant sword light was rapidly forming.
In just a moment, a snow-like sword light floated above Jian San’s eyebrows, reflecting her expression as increasingly ethereal and elusive.
Then Jian San spoke in a voice as cold as ice without a trace of emotion, "With my sword... cut through the azure sky!"
Boom!
A noble Sword Intent soared into the sky, shaking the Starry Domain, swaying the heavens and earth.
Sword light like a sea followed, carrying ultimate elegance, directly slashing toward Li Jingxing!
Wherever it passed, even space was cleaved in two.
Li Jingxing’s robes fluttered like they were about to take flight under the blowing of Sword Qi, and the golden band that held his hair in place was shattered by the sharp Sword Intent, leaving his long hair flowing down, appearing as if it could rise with the wind at any moment.
And his eyes were tinged with a faint brilliance from this stunning sword strike’s light.
Then he calmly intoned, "Hidden Sword!"
As the words fell, countless tiny Sword Qi vortices appeared around him.
These vortices spun wildly, creating an extremely powerful tearing force.
At the same time, Jian San’s sword strike was already close at hand.
Upon contact, this originally magnificent sword strike seemed to fall into a quagmire, instantly slowing down and continuously weakening.
In a flash, the sword light was forcibly weakened by more than half, and the remaining didn’t form a sword stance.
"Hidden Sword Form! It’s the Hidden Sword Form from the Buried Sword Twelve Forms!" Someone in the distant onlookers shouted in astonishment.
The rest of the crowd also burst into a commotion.
"But the situation is quite clear now!"
"Hehe, this is just the beginning, everything can only be determined when the dust settles!"
As he spoke, Xue An gazed steadily at that figure in the field, softly murmuring, "Show me all your strength, let me see if you’ve made any progress recently!"
It seemed Jian San sensed Xue An’s gaze and casually glanced toward the stands, then raised her eyes to look at Li Jingxing surrounded by the vortex of Sword Qi.
"It seems that the ranking of the Multiverse Sword Cultivators means nothing, although you are only one rank higher than Qiu Yuye, you are much stronger!"
Li Jingxing said indifferently, "You praise me too much, you are quite good too, but if this is all you have, then there is no need for this duel to continue!"
"Because you’ve already lost!"
Such firm words stirred up a commotion among the crowd.
Jian San laughed.
With that laugh, the ethereal and elusive quality of her face vanished instantly, replaced by a touch of subtle longing.
Especially in her eyes, that longing seemed to overflow.
"If it were before, I might have admitted defeat, but now it’s not certain, because I haven’t unleashed my strongest sword yet!"
"Oh? Your strongest sword?" Li Jingxing was slightly taken aback.
"Indeed, I have named this sword... Longing!"
After speaking, in front of Jian San, a delicate, blood-red Dao Sword Dharma Aspect formed in an instant.
Yet, from this exquisite small sword resembling a work of art, you couldn’t sense any killing intent.
There was only endless yearning.
Jian San’s jade-like fingers gently caressed the sword, then said in a soft murmur, "This sword was taught to me by him, now... let me show you the power of this sword!"
