<h4>Chapter 326: Netherworld Lightning Cleaves the Soul, a Hundred-Foot Sword Curtain</h4>
You Tianhong’s sh was mighty, but many weren’t at all surprised.
This was a peak Grain Avoidance Realm existence, someone whose name had long since shaken the nation. He ought to have attainments in the Dao of the Sword sufficient to shock the world.
Only then could he live up to his reputation.
They were more curious to see how Su Yi nned to break through this attack. Thus, the moment You Tianhong swung his sword, the gazes of those peak experts in attendance immediatelynded on Su Yi.
They then watched as—
“Break.”
Su Yi just casually swung his fist into the distance.
Boom!
Vast, ink-dark origin power condensed, and the ck fist light transformed into a radiant pir, which charged into the snow-white sword qi.
Su Yi was a peak fourth-level Grandmaster. Recently, he’d taken to consuming a Nine Apertures Dragon Tiger Pill to temper his cultivation once every three days.
His cultivation and umtions were far greater than before. Were Li Changning here now, this fist would have shattered him effortlessly.
Rumble!
Snow-white sword intent drew on the unreadable Yin Lightning Sword Intent and shed with the dark fist force.
It was as if lightning went off on Ocean View teau. The aftershock of the collision spread out in all directions, sending the nearby rocks and trees flying and leaving deep ditches and pits in the ground, like intersecting scars. Clouds of dust filled the air.
Their sh shook both heaven and earth, and the sound spread far and wide!
“So strong!” The Grandmasters and Xiantian Martial Ancestors in attendance were, without exception, stunned. They hurriedly retreated.
It didn’t matter that they’d heard tales of Su Yi’s aplishments. When they saw his strength with their own two eyes, they nheless felt shaken. They couldn’t even imagine it.?How could a Grandmaster possess such power?
“He broke through it, just like that?” Hong Shenshang, Yun Zhongqi, Lonely River, and the other Earthly Immortals’ gazes were solemn.
However, this result was within their expectations. It would have been stranger if Su Yi?hadn’t?blocked that sh.
Amidst the clouds of dust, You Tianhong’s brow furrowed slightly. He was a Grain Avoidance cultivator, but when he saw Su Yi break through his sh so easily, his pupils unwittingly constricted.
That attack was condensed of the origin power of heaven and earth, and he controlled it with the cultivation he’d acquired through decades of hard work. His sword force was perfect, and his sword intent was concentrated. Ordinary Earthly Immortals couldn’t possibly survive such an attack.
Yet in Su Yi’s casual punch, the true essence was far greater, and the charm of the Dao embodied within the fist force was iparably concentrated. It was simply unimaginable!
“Go!” You Tianhong’s eyes shed with cold light as he struck once more.
Whoosh!
Sword qi exploded to three hundred feet, then arced through the air like a rainbow, stirring up wind and lightning. Thunder boomed throughout the peak of Nine Millet Mountain.
This sword put the true extent of You Tianhong’s attainments in the Dao of the Sword on full disy!
Furthermore, the electric sword intent that struck terror into the onlookers’ hearts descended, nketing heaven and earth, likeherworld lightning pouring down from the skies. Explosive, destructive energy spread out in all directions.
Su Yi made no attempt to dodge. He simply stepped forward and, when the sh drew near, pressed his fingers into a sword and shed the air.
This, too, was sword qi. However, Su Yi’s was as dark as the night, and although it was only three feet long, it was iparably condensed. Subtle yet grand torrents surged within it.
The force of this sh was like a tidal wave or a copsing mountain!
Crunch!
A crisp sound followed, and beneath the crowd’s disbelieving gazes, the three-foot streak of ck sword intent cleaved You Tianhong’s vast, three-hundred-foot sword qi right down the middle!
It was as if a delicate little dagger had cleaved apart a vast mountain; the size disparity alone was an enormous shock to the senses.
As for the Yin Lightning Sword Intent apanying You Tianhong’s sh? It might as well not have existed; it posed no threat to Su Yi at all.
After all, Su Yi had sword intent too. Furthermore, it was solid as a boulder. How could an Earthly Immortal’s sword intent possibly affect it?
“When tempering sword intent, bigger isn’t always better,” sneered Su Yi.
In his past life, the people of the Wilds honored him as the Swordmaster of Abstruse Force. How could someone like You Tianhongpete with him in terms of his knowledge of the Origin Dao’s sword intents?
As he spoke, he shifted positions. Soon, he was right in front of You Tianhong.
Whoosh!
Three feet of ck sword qi cleaved downward, with sharp, unblockable sharpness. The profound and inscrutable charm of the Dao lingered around it, as well as water elemental Dao light. A veritable tide of power gathered within this one sh!
When they saw this attack, Hong Shenshang, Yun Zhongqi, Shi Fengliu, and the others were stunned. It was just one attack, but it contained the power of divine sense and the charm of the Dao. Furthermore, its vast sword force struck with effortless, unstoppable ease.
Were this sh the work of an Earthly Immortal, the onlookers would still have proimed it “shocking” and “terrifying.” Yet in reality, this was the casual swing of a fourth-level Grandmaster, and a young one at that! Of course the onlookers were stunned!
Water element spiritual Dao light, a trace of the charm of the Dao gleaned from nature, and such masterful and terrifying sword intent! The white-d Featherflow King''s eyes shone with a strange light. This guy really is so strong that it’s a bit unreasonable….
When he saw this attack, even You Tianhong’s expression instantly turned solemn.
His sleeves billowed, and his aura surged into the heavens. He swung the snow-white longsword condensed of the origin energy of heaven and earth with all his might.
The Soul-Cleaving Dark Netherworld Lightning Strike!
This was the inheritance of an ancient orthodoxy. The sword guided the yin lightning of theherworld. It could kill spirits and cleave the souls of both the living and the dead!
The earth-shaking collision resounded throughout Ocean View teau. The sh of two starkly different sword intents was visible even to the naked eye. They were diametrically opposed, like water and fire, and the resulting currents of destructive power spread throughout the dome of the heavens.
Amidst the ear-splitting booms, Su Yi’s attack burst apart, bit by bit.
However, the snow-white sword You Tianhong had condensed was splitting apart too, and pieces of it fell like rain.
Boom!
In the end, the shockwaves shook even You Tianhong. His expression instantly changed.
Although he’d blocked Su Yi’s sword, Su Yi was already within three feet of him. Without any further hesitation—
ng!
You Tianhong drew his sword, Silversnow. It streaked forth, cutting through the dome of the heavens like silver lightning.
The dazzling radiance of its edge was as clear and bright as white jade, while faint lightning and cloud markings surfaced on its de, emitting an unfathomable destructive aura.
Throughout Ocean View teau, the onlookers’ eyes stung. They watched in a daze; it seemed like a snow-white hornless dragon had taken to the skies, guiding thunder and lightning. Denseyers of dark cloud instantly gathered in the skies.
When the sword left its sheath, heaven and earth changed. The clouds blotted out the sun, and thunder boomed!
Even the Earthly Immortals couldn’t help but gasp, and their eyes shed.?What a wondrous spiritual sword! Its aura alone is enough to change the weather throughout an entire region! Just what level of treasure is this?
Conversely, Su Yi’s eyes shone with understanding. Three days ago, at the Overflowing Goblet, You Tianhong once drew his sword. Su Yi immediately realized that the sword’s aura wasn’t simple.
Three dayster, just as he arrived at Ocean View teau, the Featherflow King warned him. She said that You Tianhong’s sword came from the ruins of an ancient orthodoxy deep within the Sea of Chaotic Spirits, and that its power was terrifying to the extreme.
Now, he could finally see its power for himself. The sword really wasn’t simple. From its materials to its forging methods and the lightning Edicts emzoned on its de, all were top-notch. This made it a peak-level Origin Dao spiritual weapon.
This obviously wasn’t the work of any ordinary cultivator. Only a master artificer proficient with talismans and Edicts could have forged such a sword.
Why was Su Yi’s Abstruse God Sword so powerful? Because it was made of Abstruse God Wood, and because it was carved with a Spirit-Devouring Edict. Thebination exined why its power exceeded the limits of imagination.
You Tianhong’s sword was simrly engraved with an Edict, but his was rted to lightning!
With his sword in hand, You Tianhong’s entire presence changed, and there was no longer even the slightest trace of frantess in his expression. He now looked as grave as iron.
Whoosh!
He swung his sword at Su Yi. The snow-white de shed through the sky, bringing a vast swath of crackling electricity. You Tianhong was like a god of the sword, dancing madly amidst a thunderstorm!
Even now, Su Yi met his attack barehanded. He pressed his fingers into a sword, using the pure power of his cultivation to strengthen them.
Boom!
It was as if the river of stars were pouring onto the world below.
Su Yi’s attack was obviously even stronger than before. The surrounding air copsed. The unstoppable force of this attack was such that, were an ordinary Earthly Immortal to face it, they would surely die where they stood.
But how strong was You Tianhong?
He gripped his sword and swung its snow-white, transparent sword through the air. He cut, stabbed, sliced, blocked, and crushed. In the blink of an eye, he struck several dozen times. Surging lightning shed and crisscrossed in the air, like denselyyered currents.
As far as the eye could see, dazzling white electricity illuminated Ocean View teau, and all the onlookers heard was the low rumbling of thunder!
ng! ng! ng!
It was like a duel between deities. In the blink of an eye, they shed several dozen times. Dazzling sword qi shed and sparked between them, like a tide or rain of light, assailing the senses.
The most shocking part was that even after drawing his sword, You Tianhong was at best an even match for Su Yi. Neither had an obvious advantage!
This scene shook the hearts of countless big shots, and they could no longer remain calm.
They’d anticipated that Su Yi would be strong, but they wouldn’t have guessed he’d be strong to such an unbelievable degree!
Even You Tianhong was no exception; traces of surprise shed across his face. He would never have guessed that, even bare-handed, Su Yi could block his full-force killing attack.
This made the peak Grain Avoidance Realm cultivator’s expression more solemn and focused than ever before.
Meanwhile, Su Yi felt wonderful. The will to fight boiled within him, surging like the sea. His every strike was simple but imposing, with a vast and ancient charm.
He truly seemed like an immortal descending into the mortal world to disy the power of his Sword Dao. His silhouette was reminiscent of an immortal crane, soaring proudly through the nine heavens, free and at ease.
“Cut!” bellowed You Tianhong. When Silversnow struck, it looked slow, but in truth, it shed thirty-six times in rapid session. Inbination, the attacks formed a sword curtain stretching over three hundred feet.
Within the curtain, thunder boomed, and arcs of lightning flew, manifesting strange phenomena of yin and yang.
“Excellent!” Su Yi let out a long shout, his voice booming through the overcast skies. His long hair and blue robes fluttered about as his true essence boiled, and the light in his eyes intensified.
He swung his palm, and a sword streaked forth.
The first attack of the Rejoicing Sword Sutra, Pulling Gxies!
Sword qi shot directly into the river of stars, then spread outward, nketing heaven and earth.
Boom!
The sh fell, cleaving into You Tianhong’s three-hundred-foot lightning sword curtain. The curtain instantly trembled.
In the end, it managed to withstand Su Yi’s attack, but the impact made You Tianhong’s blood and qi churn. Inwardly, he couldn’t help but cry out in rage and rm.?You’re just a paltry little Grandmaster. How could you possess such unreasonable attainments in the Dao of the Sword?
