"Marquis Sword Star's Seven Star Point Kill Sword Art had already reached the fourth strike three years ago. I wonder if he has succeeded in cultivating the fifth strike. If he has, then Ye Chen has no hope of victory."
Luo Tiandu creased his brows. As the second ranker of the last Life and Death Substitute List, it was impossible for him to not have exchanged blows with Marquis Sword Star. Ten years ago, Marquis Sword Star had only managed to complete the third strike, but it was precisely this strike that made his defense unable to withstand a single blow. In the following seven years, Luo Tiandu's strength had improved greatly. He originally wanted to exchange pointers with Marquis Sword Star, but after learning that Marquis Sword Star had successfully cultivated the fourth strike, he gave up on the idea.
"Marquis Sword Star and Ye Chen?"
A trace of graveness appeared on Marquis Sword Snow's delicate face. These two couldn't be underestimated, especially Marquis Sword Star. His Seven Star Point Kill Sword Art was an ancient sword art with boundless might. It was said that the second strike of the Seven Star Point Kill Sword Art was twice as powerful as the first strike, and the third strike was twice as powerful as the second strike, and so on. At the sixth strike realm, one could kill a dragon of the same level, and at the seventh strike realm, one could kill an ordinary Life and Death King with the strength of a 'strongest' half-step King.
Marquis Sword Star looked to be in his thirties. He had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and was rather handsome. He wore a spacious spruce robe that fluttered in the wind as if it was weightless, giving off a feeling that he was as light as a feather.
Ye Chen, on the other hand, looked much younger. He looked to be in his early twenties, clad in blue robes. His eyes were calm, but not shallow. His pitch-black pupils seemed like an abyss that could contain everything.
The two sword artists slowly walked toward each other. When they were a hundred meters apart, the two stopped.
"This sword … Greedy Wolf Sword!"
Marquis Sword Star unsheathed his longsword, which flickered with a cold light and overflowed with killing intent. Indeed, a sword also had a killing intent, and it was even purer than a human's.
"Evil Vanquishing Sword!"
Although Ye Chen's Evil Vanquishing Sword wasn't unsheathed, under Ye Chen's urging, it was still slightly unsheathed. Just a little bit caused an upright and imposing sword Qi to spread out.
"Good sword!"
Marquis Sword Star's eyes lit up. Ye Chen's Evil Vanquishing Sword was not inferior to his Greedy Wolf Sword. It could be said to be one of the best pseudo supreme grade swords.
"Be careful, I will do my best."
Holding Sword of Greedy Wolf in his hand, Marquis Sword Star's eyes gradually turned cold.
"Seven Star Instant Kill, first kill!"
Originally, everyone thought that Marquis Sword Star would use other sword arts to probe Ye Chen. Who would have thought that he would directly use the Seven Star Point Kill Sword Art?
Puff!
The Seven Star's Point Kill was killing lives.
Starlight flashed before Ye Chen's eyes, and he felt a cold and merciless sword qi rushing towards him. This sword qi came so suddenly and so strangely.
Ding!
Unsheathing his evil-vanquishing sword, Ye Chen looked straight ahead. His sword flew and broke through the Sword Qi.
"Second Strike, Star Flash!"
Swish!
Marquis Sword Star's figure flickered like a star. He suddenly darkened, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of Ye Chen. Sword of Greedy Wolf, carrying the purest killing intent, stabbed forward.
The second strike contained a footwork art within the sword art, and the two complemented each other.
This sword was unbelievably fast. The footwork and sword art seemed to have fused into one, and borrowing the momentum of the charge, the sword art's might was raised to a whole new level.
If Lan Sanmei's blade art was a vibrational power, then Marquis Sword Snow's Freezing Sword was a compressed power. Marquis Sword Star's was a piercing power, which could pierce through even more powerful objects.
Clang!
Sparks flew everywhere!
Ye Chen raised the Evil Vanquishing Sword horizontally and blocked Marquis Sword Star's second strike.
However, the piercing power contained in Sword of Greedy Wolf was not so easy to deal with. Ye Chen's feet rubbed against the ground and slid forward, leaving behind dazzling sparks.
"Third Strike, Star Extinction!"
Marquis Sword Star was unforgiving. Retracting Sword of Greedy Wolf, he thrust out once again. This time, the speed of the piercing power was even faster than the previous one.
"Is this Marquis Sword Star? Too ruthless! Sword after sword, Ye Chen simply can't retaliate. "
"Worthy of being Marquis Sword Star. When he makes his move, it's a killing strike."
In such a short period of time, the spectators naturally didn't have the time to speak. However, the same thought flashed through their minds.
Swish …
Marquis Sword Star's strike had missed, not because his accuracy was lacking, but because Ye Chen's Evil Vanquishing Sword had collided with his Sword of Greedy Wolf. What shocked him was that Ye Chen's sword actually contained a high-frequency vibration power. The vibration power was transmitted to Sword of Greedy Wolf through the point of collision, causing his strike to lose more than half of its power.
"Vibration power!"
Lan Sanmei's eyes opened wide.
When did he learn a sword art containing vibration power? Moreover, it didn't seem to be much weaker than hers.
"Learned it on the spur of the moment? Impossible! Are there still some differences between the two?"
Marquis Sword Snow's first thought was that Ye Chen had learned Lan Sanmei's Demonic Blade Arts and then transformed it into a sword art. However, he immediately denied this thought. Demonic Blade Arts were not comprehending profound, and required thousands of tempering before one could make any progress. If one's body wasn't familiar with the vibration power, it would be impossible to use Vibration Sword Arts in a short period of time.
Moreover, he could see the difference between Ye Chen's Vibration Sword Arts and Lan Sanmei's Demonic Blade Arts. Demonic Blade Arts used the vibration of the blade to push the energy vibration from inside to outside, while Ye Chen's Vibration Sword Arts seemed to use the metal profound to push the sword art from outside to inside. It was hard to say which one was better.
Swish!
Failing his strike, Marquis Sword Star's figure flickered as he retreated and looked at Ye Chen in bewilderment.
Ye Chen didn't look at Marquis Sword Star. Instead, he raised his head and looked at Lashan Mei's small chamber. Although the chamber's transparent crystal couldn't be seen from the outside,
"Looking at me?"
Lan Sanmei noticed Ye Chen's gaze.
Retracting his gaze, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Ye Chen's mouth. Speaking of which, this Vibration Sword Art was inspired by Lan Sanmei's Demonic Blade Arts.
In his early years, he had once bought a profound martial art, Golden Resonant Radiance, in an auction.
Golden Resonant Radiance, from its name, had the word 'vibration' in it, so it naturally contained the power of vibration.
However, Golden Resonant Radiance made energy vibrate, which was sword light or sword Qi. It didn't involve the vibration of the blade itself. Relying on this sword art, Ye Chen had always been successful. However, as time passed, Golden Resonant Radiance had gradually fallen behind. Relying on energy vibrations alone, it was hard for him to deal with experts at the same level.
However, Lan Sanmei's Demonic Blade Arts had given Ye Chen a new inspiration.
The Demonic Blade Arts allowed the blade to vibrate first, and then used the blade as a medium to vibrate the energy. With the two stacked together, its power would be shocking. Be it close combat or long range combat, it would be ridiculously powerful. In that case, why didn't he change his Golden Resonant Radiance?
It should be known that his gold profound had already reached ninety percent completion, which gave him a huge innate advantage. Even normal Golden Resonant Radiance would not be weak in his hands. Barring the fact that the opponent was a top martial genius, even a normal top half step king warrior might not be able to block it.
Once the Golden Resonant Radiance was improved, its power would increase by several times, or even ten times, becoming yet another powerful ace of Ye Chen.
"A lot of things require an opportunity. This time, it can be considered as an opportunity for the Golden Resonant Radiance to be reborn."
Previously, when cultivating Golden Resonant Radiance, Ye Chen had a deep understanding of vibration power. Coupled with his ninety percent completion of gold profound, his foundation was extremely solid. Therefore, merely by observing Lan Sanmei's Demonic Blade Arts, Ye Chen grasped a unique vibration sword art. He used energy vibrations to vibrate the blade, from outside to inside, and then from inside to outside.
"I understand a lot about vibration power, but my body still can't adapt to it. I can't push it to a higher realm."
Ye Chen sighed inwardly.
Knowing was one thing, but being able to use it was another. He was not Lan Sanmei, who had cultivated Demonic Blade Arts for so many years that his body had adapted to the vibration power.
"Powerful! You actually broke my third strike with vibration sword arts!"
Marquis Sword Star's eyes flickered with a cold fanaticism.
"Fourth strike, Star Shower!"
Taking a deep breath, Marquis Sword Star took a step forward and launched a sneak attack. The Sword of Greedy Wolf in his hand pierced out hundreds of times in an instant. Each strike contained a powerful force, and each strike blossomed with resplendent starlight. This starlight rubbed against the space, making it as hard as a diamond.
"This is the fourth strike?"
Luo Tiandu stared at the scene below through the crystal.
"Let's call you Vibrational Sword Arts!"
Ye Chen gave up on the idea of using Vibrational Sword Arts to deal with Marquis Sword Star's fourth strike. He wasn't too familiar with Vibrational Sword Arts, and couldn't use them to perfection. Using the unfamiliar Vibrational Sword Arts against the enemy would clearly be using his weak point to deal with the enemy's strong point. After all, the might of the fourth strike was more than double that of the third strike.
"Sword Domain!"
An enormous sword pressure burst out of Ye Chen's body and instantly acted on Marquis Sword Star.
"It's sword pressure!"
Marquis Sword Star would never forget the scene of Ye Chen killing Young Undying Demon Lord with a single strike. However, he had still underestimated the might of this sword pressure. His body suddenly turned sluggish, and a flaw appeared in the fourth strike.
A cold star shone as Ye Chen took out his sword.
Puchi!
Blood sprayed out as a sword scar appeared on Marquis Sword Star's cheek.
At the critical moment, he had forcefully shifted his body, dodging the sure-kill strike.
"Break!"
Blood leaked out of the corner of Marquis Sword Star's mouth. Having his fourth strike interrupted made him suffer a huge backlash. His Zhen Yuan surged, and the Sword of Greedy Wolf in his hand burst out with an intense yet not dazzling moonlight. With a sweep of the sword, a large amount of moonlight burst out, covering the entire secret chamber in a flash.
Moonlight Chop!
Marquis Sword Star's self-created profound sword art.
"Waning Moon!"
Marquis Sword Star's Moonlight Chop was pale yellow, while Ye Chen's Waning Moon was immeasurably black. One black and one pale yellow, two different colors collided, each occupying half of the chamber.
Peng!
Qi waves erupted as the two were sent flying back.
The only difference was that Marquis Sword Star had spurted out a huge mouthful of blood. Forcefully shifting his body had already injured his internal organs, and the interruption of his fourth strike aggravated his injuries. Then, he clashed with Ye Chen, causing him to finally lose control.
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Marquis Sword Star said coldly, "You should be honored to be the first person to witness the fifth strike of Seven Star Point Kill Sword Art. Once I use this sword, even I can't control it."
