After all, the late-stage ninth-tier darkness sword intent wasn't the perfect one. It didn't give Ye Chen a huge boost in strength, and it didn't allow Ye Chen to reverse the situation.
"No wonder? So he was making use of me to comprehend the darkness sword intent. "
Sensing the changes in Ye Chen's godforce, how could the Demon Sword Saint not understand Ye Chen's goal? He was enraged and his attacks became even more ferocious.
Sword like Ink, Sword Like Tides. The Demon Sword Saint didn't choose the strongest technique but chose the one with the widest range, making it impossible for Ye Chen to dodge.
Pu!
Spurting out a mouthful of fresh blood, Ye Chen's chest was pierced once more.
If the fusion of his godforce with the late-stage ninth-tier darkness sword intent increased Ye Chen's strength by a hundred times, the Demon Sword Saint's strength increased by at least a thousand times. Although he wouldn't be insta-killed, he would definitely die if the battle dragged on.
Suffering heavy blows again and again, Ye Chen suddenly felt the world stop. In his mind, the first high-grade divine inscription diagram flickered unceasingly, as though something was about to be born. Abruptly, a bright light flashed as Ye Chen subconsciously slashed out with his sword.
Dang!
Sparks flew as the Demon Sword Saint was flung backwards. The might of Ye Chen's sword strike earlier was too great, and the Demon Sword Saint felt his arm going numb as his blood and qi surged.
"What?"
The Demon Sword Saint stared at Ye Chen as he recalled the scene earlier.
"High-grade divine art?"
The Demon Sword Saint frowned, feeling uncertain.
"Is this the Crisscrossing Sword Heart?"
Ye Chen regained his senses as a look of contemplation appeared on his face.
Over a hundred million years, Ye Chen had exchanged for all three high-grade divine inscriptions. Although he couldn't comprehend them in a short period of time, he was able to memorize every stroke of the divine inscription. Every detail was engraved in his mind, and at the most crucial moment, he would be able to comprehend a trace of enlightenment.
Hard work paid off. Perhaps it was because he had seen the Supreme Sword Saint use the Crisscrossing Sword Heart countless times, or perhaps it was because his own realm was high enough, but under the pressure of the Demon Sword Saint, Ye Chen easily comprehended the first high-level sword technique — the Crisscrossing Sword Heart.
The Crisscrossing Sword Heart didn't have any specific moves. It was a kind of power, a kind of power that came from the soul. If one could comprehend it, then they would comprehend it. If one couldn't comprehend it, then they would never comprehend it. Once they comprehended the Crisscrossing Sword Heart, even the most ordinary sword moves would be able to burst forth with astonishing power.
After comprehending the Crisscrossing Sword Heart, Ye Chen had officially surpassed the Peerless Sword Saint in all aspects and was now catching up to the Idealistic Sword Saint.
"Again! I don't believe it!"
The Demon Sword Saint refused to believe it. He pounced at Ye Chen once more. The black demonic sword danced in an airtight manner, blanketing the sky as it enveloped Ye Chen with a powerful aura.
"Open!"
With a wave of the Five Elements Sword, the sky full of black sword shadows was torn apart. Stretching his body, Ye Chen launched a counterattack against the Demon Sword Saint who had transformed into a Bloodline Battle-Sage for the first time.
Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!
The Demon Sword Saint felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to vomit blood. He could clearly react with his mind, but his body couldn't keep up. His body was struck five times in a row, and each sword passed through his body.
"Crisscrossing Sword Heart, only I am undefeated."
In the beginning, Ye Chen was still a bit unfamiliar with the Crisscrossing Sword Heart. However, as time passed, Ye Chen gradually understood the true meaning of the Crisscrossing Sword Heart.
A person could be defeated, but the heart could not.
If the heart was undefeated, then nothing in this world could make one lose.
It was mysterious and contained the ultimate truth of the Sword Dao.
Sometimes, the true truth itself was very simple. As the saying went, the great Dao was the simplest.
"How is this possible? I've fused with two Ultimate Battle-Sages, yet I'm still not his opponent." The Demon Sword Saint was both shocked and angry.
…
Ye Chen had completed the reversal, but the Peerless Sword Saint wasn't so lucky.
"Peerless Sword Saint, today will be the day you die."
The Dragon Scale Demon Sage occasionally tore open the Peerless Sword Saint's throat with a claw, and at other times, punched a hole through the Peerless Sword Saint's abdomen. Many Ultimate Sword Saints nearby couldn't help but want to help. However, the Dragon Scale Demon Sage, who had transformed into a Bloodline Battle-Sage, was extremely powerful. With a wave of his hand, the Ultimate Sword Saints that rushed over immediately turned into ashes.
"Haha, even if the Idealistic Sword Saint appears, it won't help."
The Dragon Scale Demon Sage raised his head and laughed.
"Is that so?"
As soon as the Dragon Scale Demon Sage finished speaking, an inconspicuous Ultimate Sword Saint suddenly spoke. His voice wasn't loud, and in this noisy environment, it should have been easy to ignore him. However, for some reason, his voice attracted everyone's attention.
"It's the Grass Bamboo Sword Saint!"
"Grass Bamboo Sword Saint, what happened to you?"
The Sword Saints were inexplicably shocked.
The Grass Bamboo Sword Saint was an ordinary Ultimate Sword Saint in the Sword God Palace. He was a very low-key person and didn't have many friends.
"Your strength is about the same as mine, yet you dare to be so arrogant!"
The Grass Bamboo Sword Saint's opponent was somewhat disdainful. He thought that the Grass Bamboo Sword Saint had lost his mind. Taking advantage of the Grass Bamboo Sword Saint's distraction, he suddenly charged over, wanting to launch a sneak attack on the Grass Bamboo Sword Saint.
Pu!
The Grass Bamboo Sword Saint seemed to have changed into a different person. He was calm and magnanimous, and a trace of extreme dominance was hidden in his temperament. With a glare, two beams of light flashed, and the Ultimate Battle Saint from the Demon God Palace exploded.
He killed an ordinary Ultimate Battle Saint with just his gaze. Even the Limitless Sword Saint couldn't compare to such strength. Everyone was stunned, and their mouths were wide open.
"The Idealistic Sword Saint!"
The Limitless Sword Saint revealed a look of realization.
"The Idealistic Sword Saint, it's you!"
The Dragon Scale Demon Sage was the second to react, and he shouted.
"So it's the Idealistic Sword Saint. This is great. I was wondering why the Idealistic Sword Saint didn't appear. It turns out that he has always been by our side, but we couldn't discover him."
"Yes, the Idealistic Sword Saint should be observing something. That's why he hasn't shown himself."
"As long as the Idealistic Sword Saint is here, we will definitely win."
The Sword Saints discussed animatedly, and their faces were filled with joy.
"He's the Idealistic Sword Saint?" From afar, Ye Chen saw the Idealistic Sword Saint. He didn't know why, but the Idealistic Sword Saint gave him a very familiar feeling. However, he knew very well that the two of them had never met before.
As if they had a telepathic connection, the Idealistic Sword Saint also looked at Ye Chen in the distance, and a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes.
"The Idealistic Sword Saint, so what if you're here? With your strength, you're at most on par with me."
The Dragon Scale Demon Sage was very confident. The Idealistic Sword Saint was indeed very strong, ridiculously strong. He could almost defeat the Limitless Sword Saint and the Dragon Scale Demon Sage before transforming into a Bloodline Battle Saint. However, this was before transforming into a Bloodline Battle Saint. After transforming into a Bloodline Battle Saint, the Dragon Scale Demon Sage felt as if he had become a god, and his strength was about to explode.
"Whether it's true or not, we'll know once we try."
The Idealistic Sword Saint smiled faintly, and his body suddenly emitted a sword intent that was like a breeze.
This sword intent was faint and illusory, as if it came from beyond the nine heavens. Although it wasn't very powerful, it was enough to make one's soul tremble.
"Have a taste of my Sword God Palace's second advanced sword technique — Sword Traversing Taixu!"
The Idealistic Sword Saint disappeared and was replaced by a wisp of sword light, an illusory, formless, and colorless sword light.
