The third stage of the Unparalleled Sword Venerable Assembly had begun.
Unlike the Ancient Sword Sect's unparalleled sword arts and the Buddha Palace's unparalleled comprehension, the third stage was battle.
The glory of unparalleled battle prowess!
When the Myriad Battle Palace's Sword Saint announced the content of the third stage, many Sword Venerables were disappointed, but there were also many who were happy.
This was because the third stage was a battle between Sword Venerables. It was a battle of true strength, using strength to obtain the glory of unparalleled battle prowess.
"Hmph, this time, you are not fated to be unparalleled." Many Sword Venerables stared at Chu Mu and muttered to themselves.
The tallest tree in the forest would be destroyed by the wind!
Chu Mu obtained two unparalleled battle prowess in one go and became the focus of attention. At the same time, he also became the target of jealousy in many people's hearts.
They all knew that Chu Mu's true strength was between advanced Sword Venerable and pinnacle Sword Venerable. Among the ten thousand Sword Venerables, he was only at the middle level and was not outstanding at all.
The Myriad Battle Palace was a special palace built by the Hundred Saints Alliance for the battles between Sword Venerables. The Myriad Battle Palace had a special characteristic. The Myriad Battle Palace allowed the Sword Venerables to use their full strength, including secret techniques, to fight to the death with their opponents without any scruples.
This was because the injuries and deaths in the Myriad Battle Palace were not real. After leaving the Myriad Battle Palace, everything would be recovered.
The Myriad Battle Palace was so magical that it naturally consumed a lot of energy every time it was opened. The Hundred Saints Alliance rarely opened the Myriad Battle Palace. This time, it was opened for the Unparalleled Sword Venerable Assembly.
When the ten thousand Sword Venerables walked into the Myriad Battle Palace, they immediately felt a strange aura fluctuation in the air. This aura fluctuation was not harmful to them.
Each of the ten thousand Sword Venerables received a temporary seat. Each seat lit up with a gentle white light.
The Myriad Battle Palace's Sword Saint was an old man with red hair that burned like flames. He gave off a feeling of anger. Getting close to him felt like getting close to an active volcano.
"The third stage of the Unparalleled Sword Venerable Assembly, the glory of unparalleled battle prowess. The first round begins now." The Sword Saint of the Myriad Battles Palace announced emotionlessly. Afterwards, white light shot out from two of the ten thousand seats, enveloping the Sword Venerables. In just a few seconds, the two Sword Venerables appeared on the circular platform at the very center of the Myriad Battles Palace.
The platform was actually a Semi-Virtual Realm. It covered a large area and was surrounded by powerful seals that could be activated depending on the situation. The current strength of the seals could withstand the attack of an ordinary Sword Of Gojoseon without breaking.
The difference in strength between the Sword Venerable and the Sword Of Gojoseon was huge. No matter how strong the Sword Venerable was, his attack power could not reach the level of the Sword Of Gojoseon.
The two Sword Venerables that entered the Ten Thousand Battle Platform were randomly selected, and it was all based on luck. Maybe their strength was similar, or maybe there was a huge difference in strength. For example, a High Level Sword Venerable would encounter an Extreme Level Sword Venerable.
The Sword Venerables in the other seats could see everything in the Myriad Battle Platform clearly. Inside the Myriad Battle Palace, there were many invisible divine senses that were watching everything. They were the other Sword Saints of the Hundred Saints Alliance.
"Die!" In the Myriad Battle Platform, the two Sword Venerables unsheathed their swords and attacked each other without holding back.
However, among these two Sword Venerables, one had the battle prowess of a pinnacle Sword Venerable while the other only had the battle prowess of a high rank Sword Venerable. The difference was very obvious. When the two sword skills collided, the high rank Sword Venerable's sword skill was instantly defeated. While the high rank Sword Venerable was trying to dodge, the pinnacle Sword Venerable suddenly appeared beside the high rank Sword Venerable and sliced him in half.
Whoosh. The two halves of the high rank Sword Venerable turned into two rays of white light and disappeared. In the next breath, he appeared on his original seat. The white light on his seat dimmed like a lamp, indicating that he had been eliminated. The light on the winning Sword Venerable's seat was still as bright as before.
After the first battle ended, about ten breaths later, two more seats released rays of light. Two Sword Venerables entered the Myriad Battle Platform and started the second battle.
There were victories and defeats. The victorious Sword Venerable could enter the next battle until he was defeated.
After each battle, the next battle would take place after ten breaths of time. Very quickly, dozens of battles had already passed.
After ten breaths of time, the seat in front of Chu Mu released a white light. Chu Mu couldn't dodge it and attacked Chu Mu. Immediately after, before Chu Mu could react, he had already appeared on the Myriad Battle Platform.
Opposite him was Chu Mu's opponent. When Chu Mu saw this, he was stunned.
"I said before that I would fight you within ten years. Now, it's going to happen." Huangfu Huangtian's tone was overbearing. His eyes were filled with battle intent. He unsheathed his sword and pointed it at Chu Mu. His overbearing aura surged out like a tidal wave and attacked Chu Mu.
At this moment, it was as if he had transformed into the king of the world.
"Chu Mu and Huangfu Huangtian should have an intense battle," Chen Bu Er said to himself. Chen Bu 'er thought to himself. He felt that the combat strength of both sides should be about the same. A fierce battle was inevitable to determine the victor.
Shangguan Qinyin didn't know Chu Mu as well as Chen Bu Er, but her opinion was the same as Chen Bu Er's.
Actually, it wasn't just the two of them. Many Sword Venerables had the same opinion. They all felt that Chu Mu and Huangfu Huangtian would have an intense battle.
"Please," Chu Mu replied. He didn't unsheathe his sword, but his aura was condensed and sharp.
"Take my move first, King's Fury!" Huangfu Huangtian roared and unsheathed his sword. It was as if he was the king of the world. Under this sword, it was as if the king wanted his subject to die. The subject had no choice but to die. His aura was unparalleled. If a swordsman with the same strength as Huangfu Huangtian faced this sword, his aura would definitely weaken and he would be at a disadvantage.
This sword gave Chu Mu a feeling that he couldn't dodge it.
"Million Corpses!" After unsheathing his sword, Huangfu Huangtian followed up with a sword technique.
He knew that Chu Mu's sword technique was unparalleled. If he fought against Chu Mu with sword techniques, he would definitely lose. He might even die under Chu Mu's sword in a few moves. He wouldn't even be able to unleash his full strength.
Hence, the way to defeat Chu Mu was to attack with a powerful sword technique and kill Chu Mu with absolute battle prowess.
King's Fury was like a prelude. The power of Million Corpses instantly increased by 30%. It was even more powerful than when it was used alone.
"High-level Sword Venerable …" This sword technique revealed Huangfu Huangtian's strength.
Under Million Corpses, Chu Mu's body seemed to explode. Huangfu Huangtian's expression changed as he had a bad feeling. It was as if the Chu Mu that was killed by Million Corpses was fake.
As expected, Chu Mu appeared on the other side. He used the Flying Swan Illusory Steps under the Ultimacy. It seemed real and fake at the same time, and Huangfu Huangtian couldn't tell. In less than a blink of an eye, Chu Mu appeared beside Huangfu Huangtian and slashed with his sword.
Huangfu Huangtian immediately felt that there was a strange power on Chu Mu's sword. It wasn't Sword Origin, Sword Intent, or Ultimacy. It was a special power that could affect the surrounding space. It pulled at his body, causing his reaction to be a beat slower.
The sword slashed out, and the sword light was as cold as a cold star as it streaked across the sky. Huangfu Huangtian's head flew high into the air, and it tumbled in midair. His headless body also slowly fell forward.
In the next moment, the flying head and headless body turned into two streaks of white light and left the Myriad Battle Platform. They appeared on the seats, and the lights on the seats were extinguished at the same time.
Huangfu Huangtian's expression was pale. Although he didn't really die in the Myriad Battle Palace, the pain of having his head cut off was real. Thinking back to that pain and despair, he still had lingering fear. It made Huangfu Huangtian feel a chill on his neck as if there was an invisible sword pressed against it.
He needed some time to get rid of this "psychological shadow".
Compared to the pain of death, Huangfu Huangtian was more shocked that he had been killed by Chu Mu in a single strike. It turned out that the difference in strength between him and Chu Mu had unknowingly become so great.
How laughable. He was still delusional to think that he could compete with Chu Mu and even defeat him. It turned out that it was just a fantasy.
The other Sword Venerables were also shocked. The reality was different from what they had expected. There was no intense battle. It was just one strike, and Chu Mu had defeated Huangfu Huangtian without even using any sword techniques.
Although they were shocked, the battle still had to continue. After 10 breaths, the next battle continued.
"This Chu Mu's sword technique is really very profound. It's probably at a level that even I can't compare to."
"Very good battle talent. He grasped the timing very well."
This was the Sword Saints' Divine Consciousness talking silently.
Chu Mu didn't look happy at all after defeating Huangfu Huangtian in one strike because this was a matter of course.
He had the battle prowess of an elite Sword Venerable, while Huangfu Huangtian was an advanced Sword Venerable. There was a huge gap between the two of them. Moreover, Chu Mu's mastery of illusion and reality was very profound, so Huangfu Huangtian couldn't distinguish between the real and the fake. His battle talent was also greater than Huangfu Huangtian's, and the instantaneous sword technique domain power affected Huangfu Huangtian's reaction speed. Defeat was inevitable.
Time passed slowly. Two Sword Venerables entered the Ten Thousand Battle Platform. One won and advanced, while the other lost and was eliminated.
There were a total of 5,000 battles in the first round. Each battle lasted for only three breaths, and some took close to 15 minutes to decide the winner.
This would take a lot of time. However, to the Sword Venerables, they didn't seem to feel the flow of time. They tried their best to observe every battle because every victorious Sword Venerable could become their opponent in the next round.
As for the defeated Sword Venerables, they treated themselves as spectators. While watching, they imagined how they should react, dodge, and even counterattack to turn the situation around.
The Sword Saint of the Ten Thousand Battles Palace stood at the side and watched expressionlessly with his hands behind his back. Occasionally, a glimmer of light would flash across his eyes.
The five thousand battles had ended. The top ten Sword Venerables had displayed their astonishing strength. Their opponents were all at the peak of the Sword Venerables realm, but they had been defeated with just one sword strike.
In such a battle of different levels, it was difficult to see the true strength of these powerful Sword Venerables. Only when they encountered opponents with similar battle prowess would they erupt with their true strength.
After the first round of battles ended, the Sword Venerables were all in peak condition. Then, the second round of battles began. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
