In the face of Bai Tao's sword, Xiao Chen did not dodge nor did he have any intention of replying. It was as if he did not hear Bai Tao's words at all.
At the same time, when Bai Tao's sword was about to attack Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen also slashed out with his sword. Just like Bai Tao, it looked like a simple sword without the slightest power. It was not as sharp as before.
However, when he saw Xiao Chen's sword, Bai Tao's eyes flashed with amazement. No Sword in the Heart. Xiao Chen had finally taken the last step and successfully reached the state of No Sword in the Heart.
The two swords collided fiercely. This time, they were not directly crushed like before. On the contrary, Xiao Chen's sword and Bai Tao's sword were evenly matched.
Although Bai Tao still had the upper hand, it was undeniable that Xiao Chen's sword was no longer the same as before.
Looking at Xiao Chen's sword, Bai Tao nodded in satisfaction. At the same time, he became more and more interested in Xiao Chen. He did not expect this kid to be so talented.
From Bai Tao's point of view, Xiao Chen had almost caught up with Mu Lingxian in all other aspects, regardless of strength and cultivation level.
Who was Mu Lingxian? He was the World Lord of the Hong Meng World. Back then, Bai Tao and the other three were defeated by Mu Lingxian. It could be said that Mu Lingxian had completely stepped on the four of them to become the World Lord.
Although he had been defeated by Mu Lingxian, Bai Tao did not have much hatred for Mu Lingxian. On the contrary, he had a trace of admiration because Mu Lingxian was indeed amazing. Bai Tao was also willing to be defeated by him.
In Bai Tao's opinion, Xiao Chen was completely capable of competing with Mu Lingxian in the future. In other words, Mu Lingxian's position as the World Lord was going to be challenged in the future.
Bai Tao naturally did not know that Xiao Chen was not from the Hong Meng World, but from the Great Thousand World. In Bai Tao's opinion, with Xiao Chen's talent, as long as he did not die, he would definitely be able to compete with Mu Lingxian in the future.
The two swords collided. In the end, although Bai Tao was slightly better and defeated Xiao Chen's sword, Xiao Chen's second sword also shattered Bai Tao's sword.
Xiao Chen was able to block Bai Tao's all-out attack with just two swords. This was something that Xiao Chen would not have been able to do in the past. However, after making a breakthrough in the way of the sword, Xiao Chen had succeeded in doing so. At the same time, Xiao Chen's comprehension of the way of the sword had also risen to a whole new level. It was completely different from before. At this moment, Xiao Chen could be considered a top swordsman in the universe.
.......... Only the top group of sword cultivators could break through the Swordless Heart State. This was also one of the symbolic characteristics of many sword cultivators.
Of course, above the Swordless Heart State, there was the Sword Principle Godhood State. However, that step was too difficult. Even people like Bai Tao and Qin Feng could not do it now.
Although they had been immersed in the Swordless Heart State for many years, it was very difficult to break through to the Sword Principle Godhood State. It could even be said that there was no possibility. This was no longer something that could be achieved with talent and hard work. It was more likely that it depended on opportunity and luck.
Of course, the Sword Principle Godhood State was still too far away from Xiao Chen. After all, Xiao Chen had just broken through the Swordless Heart State and had not had the time to completely stabilize it.
Bai Tao did not continue to attack after his sword was successfully blocked by Xiao Chen. The long sword in his hand slowly dissipated as he looked at Xiao Chen with a smile.
"Not bad. You've won this battle."
Hearing Bai Tao's words, Xiao Chen cupped his hands and bowed. "Thank you for your guidance, senior."
Bai Tao had indeed been guiding Xiao Chen most of the time in this battle. Without Bai Tao's guidance, it would not have been so easy for Xiao Chen to break through the Swordless Heart State. Therefore, Xiao Chen was still grateful to Bai Tao.
In response, Bai Tao merely smiled and waved his hand nonchalantly. "Don't be happy too early. I've already said earlier that if you want to pass this test, you have to defeat two out of the four of us. As for the other three, their tempers aren't as good as mine."
Xiao Chen had only defeated Bai Tao, which was not considered a real success. Xiao Chen still needed to defeat at least one more person. Bai Tao knew the tempers of the other three very well, and it was obvious that they were not as good-tempered as Bai Tao.
Bai Tao reminded Xiao Chen. As soon as he finished his words, one of the remaining three golden statues began to tremble violently. Soon, cracks spread all over the statue. Then, the statue shattered and a young man who looked like Bai Tao appeared in front of Xiao Chen.
The feeling he gave off was completely different from Bai Tao. This young man was wearing a purple-gold robe, giving off a domineering feeling that he was looking down on the world. It was impossible for people to look at him directly. As soon as he appeared, there was an overwhelming pressure pressing towards Xiao Chen.
Looking at the young man, Bai Tao laughed. "Di Jun, little guy, you're really unlucky. He is stubborn and will not go easy on you."
While Bai Tao was speaking, Di Jun had already arrived in front of Xiao Chen. He snorted and said, "You still talk so much nonsense."
After saying that, he ignored Bai Tao and turned to look at Xiao Chen. He said coldly, "My name is Di Jun. Cut the crap. If you want to pass, you have to defeat me. But I'm not Bai Tao. I won't go easy on you. If you can't beat me, I'll definitely kill you here."
After saying that, Di Jun threw out a punch without giving Xiao Chen a chance to reply.
The aura of the fist appeared all of a sudden, giving off a domineering aura that seemed capable of splitting the sky with a single punch. Xiao Chen reacted quickly, lashing out with his sword right away. However, when the fist and sword collided, Xiao Chen was sent flying backward.
Di Jun had indeed only used his half-step Emperor Realm cultivation. But as Bai Tao said, Di Jun was not a person who would go easy on Xiao Chen, let alone instruct Xiao Chen like Bai Tao.
Di Jun used his full strength right from the start. After sending Xiao Chen flying, Di Jun had no intention of stopping. He took a step forward and his figure disappeared in an instant.
Unlike Xiao Chen and Bai Tao, Di Jun did not have a special physique like Sword Body. Therefore, Di Jun did not comprehend World Force. Naturally, he could not use World Flash.
However, even without World Flash, Di Jun's speed was extremely fast. Xiao Chen did not dare to hesitate and directly used Sword Realm. At the same time, he used World Flash to escape from Di Jun's pursuit.
"Sword Body, Sword Realm at the Grand Perfection Stage, World Flash. Not bad. But do you really think you're foolproof with World Flash?" Di Jun's expression remained unchanged after Xiao Chen successfully escaped from his pursuit.
