Lie Kong Yang seemed to feel that this was not enough. He waved his sword again and a third cyan phoenix shadow appeared. It spread its wings and rushed out, circling around and attacking Chu Mu from the side.
From the left, from the right, and from the sky, there was a cyan phoenix shadow rushing out from three different directions. The people of the Great Kun Sword Palace immediately turned pale and stood up one by one.
Even though they knew that Elder Long would save Chu Mu at the most crucial moment, they were still worried.
The cyan phoenix's terror was unimaginable. Not to mention being hit, even the slightest bit of impact would cause one to be severely injured.
Elder Long was also prepared. His eyes flickered as he stared below. Once Chu Mu was in danger, he would immediately intervene. Otherwise, the Eastern Sword Region would suffer a great loss.
Seeing that Chu Mu was about to be hit by the three cyan phoenix shadows, the cyan flame in Lie Kong Yang's eyes flickered and dimmed as if it was about to be extinguished. A smile also appeared on his face.
He knew that Chu Mu had nowhere to run.
Perhaps his footwork was amazing, but he would not be able to avoid the pursuit of the three phoenix shadows. Lie Kong Yang was 100% confident about this.
He also knew that Chu Mu wouldn't die. In fact, he wouldn't even be injured. However, that didn't matter, because as long as he defeated Chu Mu, everything would be fine. This was him defeating Chu Mu with absolute strength. The crown of Sword Hero King would still be on his head.
After this, he would break through to the Qi Hai Realm. Because he had accumulated enough strength, Lie Kong Yang felt that he could no longer suppress it.
Therefore, he wanted to defeat Chu Mu with absolute strength and let the Eastern Sword Region know that his position as the King of Sword Heroes was unshakable. He wanted to break through the Qi Hai Realm and enter the Ninth Transformation Realm. When that time came, he would be able to break through the Ninth Transformation Realm and reach the Origin Realm faster.
Only then would he be qualified to enter the Central Sword Region again and compete with the true young swordsmen.
Chu Mu was only a stepping stone for him to break through.
Everyone from the Great Qian Sword Mansion clenched their fists tightly as excitement filled their faces.
With Lie Kong Yang's victory, this year's Battle of Providence would come to an end. Just like the previous years, the Great Qian Sword Mansion would emerge victorious. Not only would this allow the Great Qian Sword Mansion to obtain more power of providence, it would also greatly motivate the Great Qian Sword Mansion. This would motivate the Great Qian Sword Mansion's students to work even harder in their cultivation and improve by leaps and bounds.
"As expected, compared to Lie Kong Yang, Chu Mu is still not enough."
"Although Chu Mu is extremely talented, he doesn't have enough time."
The spectators all sighed. Although the Eastern Sage Hall Palace Master and the others who were hiding in the shadows didn't say anything, their thoughts were more or less the same. They felt that this time around, Chu Mu would definitely lose.
However, they all thought that Chu Mu was too young, and that he had only become a Sword Hero for a short period of time. If he had become a Sword Hero a few years earlier, the chances of him defeating Lie Kong Yang would have been much higher.
However, this didn't affect Chu Mu's position in their hearts.
As expected, Chu Mu gave up on dodging. He stood on the spot as if he was going to let the three green phoenixes attack him.
"Lie Kong Yang, you are indeed very strong," Chu Mu said softly with a sincere smile on his face.
In the next moment, just when everyone thought that Chu Mu would definitely lose and Elder Long was about to make a move, there was a loud boom that seemed to shake the heavens and earth.
"What!?"
"Impossible!"
"This can't be real!"
All sorts of exclamations rang out uncontrollably. Every single one of them was extremely sharp. Their eyes were wide open, and the smile on Lie Kong Yang's face froze. The green flames in his eyes were at their weakest, and they were filled with disbelief.
What was that?
Sword intent. Chu Mu was bursting with sword intent, sword intent that soared into the heavens.
They already knew that Chu Mu possessed sword intent, and Lie Kong Yang had also personally experienced it. However, at this moment, Chu Mu wasn't bursting with 10% sword intent, but 12%.
When he attacked, three dark golden crescent moons that were a few meters long tore through the air and slashed towards the left, right, and top.
Three Crescent Moons!
With popping sounds, the three green phoenixes were all shattered by the Crescent Moons. After they were shattered, the Crescent Moons exploded and turned into a dark golden membrane that blocked the impact of the green flames.
In the end, the green flames and dark golden flames disappeared without a trace.
"This … This …" Lie Kong Yang stared at Chu Mu in a daze. The green flames on his body rose and fell, just like his current mood.
Elder Long released his sword fingers and a smile appeared on his old-fashioned face. The people from the East Sanctuary also secretly heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, they paid more attention to Chu Mu.
The people from the Great Kun Sword Palace also heaved a sigh of relief. However, their bodies were tense and their blood was boiling. If not for the occasion, they would have already shouted loudly.
"12% sword intent. Chu Mu shouldn't lose, right?" Baili Jiang said after a long time. However, the word "win" kept lingering in his heart, as if it was about to rush out.
The difference between a 12% sword intent and a 10% sword intent was very obvious.
Originally, Chu Mu wanted to hold back, but Lie Kong Yang was too strong, so he couldn't hold back.
A 12% Crescent Moons could break the green phoenixes' shadows and block the impact of the green flames, so Chu Mu wasn't affected at all.
"Lie Kong Yang, I will defeat you in your strongest state and make you accept your loss wholeheartedly," Chu Mu said firmly as he waved the Monster Slaying Sword and pointed it at Lie Kong Yang.
"Let's see how you will defeat me!" Lie Kong Yang shouted. The green flames on his body, which were almost extinguished, sprang up like oil was poured on them. They burned fiercely as if they wanted to burn the sky.
Lie Kong Yang was very clear that the green flames around him were terrifyingly hot. Not only did they possess terrifying might, but they were also the best defense. Even if the Crescent Moons struck him, the Crescent Moons would be destroyed by the Sky-burning Green Flames and would not be able to deal any real damage to Lie Kong Yang.
Even a peak grade sword would soften under such terrifyingly high temperatures. After some time, it would turn into red-hot iron. Once the Sky-burning Triplet reached the third layer, the flames could directly melt a peak grade sword into molten iron.
"Whoosh!" Chu Mu's figure seemed to be retreating. However, he was actually charging at Lie Kong Yang at an extremely fast speed. His movements were as unpredictable as a white cloud, unpredictable.
In just a flash, Chu Mu appeared before Lie Kong Yang.
Lie Kong Yang stared straight at Chu Mu. Right now, he was using all his strength to activate the Sky-burning Triplet Triplet secret technique. He did not have any energy left to counterattack or dodge. He could only passively endure Chu Mu's incoming attack.
However, Lie Kong Yang believed that with the Sky-burning Green Flames, Chu Mu's attack would not be effective. If his sword pierced into the green flames, not to mention whether the sword would soften, just the terrifying heat alone would make Chu Mu unable to hold the sword.
"Lie Kong Yang, accept your defeat," Chu Mu said in a low voice as he stabbed forward with the Monster Slaying Sword.
It was an ordinary stab that did not seem to have any energy fluctuations. Lie Kong Yang could not help but feel puzzled. The spectators were also puzzled. Only Elder Long, who was in the air, was startled at first, then his expression changed greatly. This was because he could vaguely feel the terrifying power contained in Chu Mu's stab.
It was a power that had been compressed to the extreme. It was all compressed within the sword, as if it had become one with the sword when it was forged.
Elder Long believed that once this power was unleashed, its might could only be described with the word 'terrifying'.
The stab just happened to stop outside the Sky-burning Green Flames. The tip of the sword had only touched the flames for a brief moment, but Chu Mu felt a terrifying heat quickly spread from the tip of the sword to the body of the sword.
At the same time, an indescribable power pierced through the Sky-burning Green Flames, directly piercing through Lie Kong Yang's protective sword Qi. It then struck the supreme quality armor on Lie Kong Yang's body, right where his heart was.
An uncontrollable groan rang out. Lie Kong Yang only felt as if his heart had been pierced by a sharp sword. Intense pain spread through his entire body. His body swayed, and he lost consciousness. His vision turned black, and the green flames in his eyes extinguished. The Sky-burning Green Flames on his body also went out in the blink of an eye due to his loss of control.
Blood leaked from the corner of his mouth as Lie Kong Yang staggered back a few steps, barely managing to stand firm. He stared with great effort, and his vision was blurry. After a while, this incomparably uncomfortable feeling finally disappeared. However, there was still an incomparable pain in his heart, and even breathing was difficult.
"What is this sword skill called?" Lie Kong Yang asked with a slightly hoarse voice.
"Point Kill," Chu Mu replied indifferently.
"Point Kill … Thank you for showing mercy." Lie Kong Yang still said with difficulty in his hoarse voice. He covered his chest with one hand, and didn't dare to breathe too hard. "You win. You are the new Sword Hero King."
Lie Kong Yang's expression and voice were filled with unconcealable loneliness.
As his voice fell, Chu Mu's fate dragon rushed out from his body and pounced onto Lie Kong Yang's body. When it rushed out again, its length broke through again, nearing fifteen meters.
When the nearly fifteen meter long fate dragon returned to Chu Mu's side, it didn't enter Chu Mu's body. Instead, it coiled around Chu Mu's body and quickly rushed up into the sky. When it reached the highest altitude, the fate dragon raised its head and let out a dragon's roar that resounded throughout the Heaven-Deciding Sword Arena.
Following that, a fate dragon condensed on each of the ninety-nine Sword Heroes. For those Sword Heroes with too little fate, their fate dragons were not only small, but also blurry, as if they would scatter with the wind.
As if a king had given the order, each of the ninety-nine fate dragons spat out one percent of their own fate power, and all of them flew towards the fate dragon in the sky above the arena.
Chu Mu's fate dragon quickly swam and swallowed all ninety-nine fate powers. Its body rapidly expanded, and in the blink of an eye, it was more than fifteen meters long, and then even longer.
Finally, Chu Mu's fate dragon reached nearly fifteen meters long. After circling in the sky once, it rushed down and rushed into Chu Mu's body.
Lie Kong Yang slowly walked down the arena, and his back seemed a little bleak. The Heaven-Deciding Sword Arena was silent. Most of the people looked at Lie Kong Yang's figure, and then at Chu Mu with some reverence. They knew that from now on, the Sword Hero King of the Eastern Sword Region was no longer Lie Kong Yang, but Chu Mu. (To be continued.
