Nie Tian hovered there in midair, his sword will swirling around him, making him look like a sharp sword that seemed capable of ripping apart anything in existence.
Jian Jingyun could sense Nie Tian's sword will, and couldn't help but shiver in astonishment. "What a sharp sword will!"
As a sword cultivator who had reached the level of selflessness, it was only natural that he could tell how terrifying Nie Tian's sword will was.
Although his cultivation base was higher than Nie Tian's, he had the feeling that his own sword will wasn't as strong as Nie Tian's.
How could a sword cultivator who had reached the level of selflessness not be as strong as a sword cultivator who had reached the quintessence of the sword?
Jian Jingyun was extremely talented in the dao of the sword. He was only twelve thousand years old, but his cultivation base had already reached the level of selflessness. Therefore, he was very confident that before he reached the peak of the Paramount God level, he would be able to reach the pinnacle of the sword and the martial arts.
Jian Jingyun would never dare to claim that his sword will was the strongest among sword cultivators in the Nine Realms, but he was definitely in the top ten.
But now, a sword cultivator with the quintessence of the sword had appeared, whose sword will was even stronger than his own.
Of all the sword cultivators Jian Jingyun had ever encountered, Nie Tian's sword will wasn't the strongest, but it was definitely the most terrifying!
That was because Nie Tian was only at the quintessence of the sword level, and yet his sword will was already so terrifying. Once he reached the level of the martial arts and the sword, his sword will would be even more terrifying.
"There's something strange about this brat!" Jian Jingyun thought, his expression flickering.
That said, he was still very confused. Although Nie Tian's sword will was terrifying, it was impossible for him to defeat Zhou Qing with the power of the sword alone!
Jian Jingyun had defeated Zhou Qing not only because of his cultivation base in the dao of the sword, but also because he was a peak Overgod.
Nie Tian's sword will was strong, but he was still too weak to be a match for Zhou Qing.
"Swordsman, I hate people who use swords the most!" At this moment, Zhou Qing sensed Nie Tian's Sword Will, and the rage in his heart intensified. With a roar, his figure moved. Instantly, the Yellow Sand Giant in the air began to run wildly, causing the heavens and earth to tremble and the space to tremble.
"Die!" Zhou Qing roared, and the Yellow Sand Giant slammed down with its palm. Its terrifying aura seemed to be able to shatter the heavens and rend the earth. Endless amounts of sand pressed down on Nie Tian, it was extremely terrifying.
Nie Tian stood tall in the air. His eyes suddenly flickered. What he revealed was not fear, but an intense desire to fight.
In the blink of an eye, strange runes surged around his body. His strength rose explosively, and his aura surged like the sea.
"I'll defeat you with one sword!" The moment his aura surged to the extreme, Nie Tian let out a low roar and stabbed out with his sword. Suddenly, the sword intent condensed and a sword shadow whizzed out, like a giant dragon, rolling in the air.
"Boom!" In the next moment, the sword shadow bombarded the Yellow Sand Giant, and with a boom, the Yellow Sand Giant was directly shattered. The terrifying sword light shot out, and the Sword Will circulated in the endless space.
The crowd's gazes became dull in that instant, and their faces stiffened. They could not believe what they had just seen.
"Argh!" Immediately after, a miserable cry sounded, and Zhou Qing's figure was directly sent flying, leaving behind a trail of blood in the air.
The entire place was dead silent.
Everyone stared at the scene in the air in a daze, unable to make a sound for a long time.
Zhou Qing had lost! He had been defeated by a Highgod!
A peak Overgod, the tenth expert on the Overgod Ranking, had actually lost to a Highgod. This was just too unbelievable.
This result had exceeded everyone's expectations.
Nie Tian stood in the air, and the runes around him dissipated. His strength had returned to the mid-stage Highgod level.
On the other side, Zhou Qing stabilized his body, but he was covered in blood and looked extremely miserable.
"This is impossible! This is impossible! This is absolutely impossible! "Zhou Qing yelled madly. He seemed to have gone mad.
He was unable to accept everything that had just happened. He could not accept the fact that Nie Tian had defeated him.
How could he have imagined that an ant that he did not even want to look at could actually defeat him? Moreover, it had been so easy, with just a casual strike.
He could lose to Jian Jingyun, because the latter was an influential figure on the Overgod Ranking.
However, he could not lose to Nie Tian, because the latter was nothing.
Nie Tian looked at Zhou Qing, who had almost gone mad, and could not help but shake his head. He thought to himself, "It's quite a miracle that such a weak heart of martial arts has made it this far."
Nie Tian had not used his full strength in the previous strike. Otherwise, Zhou Qing would have been a corpse a long time ago.
Zhou Qing was a member of the Nine Great Clans. Nie Tian did not want to kill him, as it would cause unnecessary trouble.
Nie Tian glanced at Zhou Qing and shook his head with a smile. He then turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait!" However, at that moment, a figure suddenly descended. He stared at Nie Tian with a dark gaze and said coldly, "You're not allowed to leave!"
"Hmm?" Nie Tian's eyes narrowed slightly. He then turned around and looked at the person who had spoken. It was Jian Jingyun!
Jian Jingyun had also been stunned by Nie Tian's strike. He had not reacted for a long time.
He had never thought that Nie Tian's trump card would be so powerful. It had completely exceeded his expectations.
He could tell that Nie Tian had not used his full strength in the previous strike. However, even under such circumstances, Nie Tian had defeated Zhou Qing with a single strike more easily than him.
"Jian Jingyun!" Gui Wucan could not help but cry out as he watched from below. He was very surprised that Jian Jingyun would speak at that moment.
"What do you want?" Nie Tian's reaction was very calm. He smiled at Jian Jingyun and asked.
"I want to fight with you!" Jian Jingyun's eyes flickered as he said in a deep voice.
The crowd burst into an uproar when they heard his words. Their eyes lit up as they looked forward to the battle between Nie Tian and Jian Jingyun.
Jian Jingyun and Nie Tian had both defeated Zhou Qing not long ago. Moreover, they had defeated their opponents with a single strike.
The battle between the two of them would definitely be very exciting.
The corner of Nie Tian's mouth curled up into a smile as he said, "There's no enmity between us. We're just strangers. Why would I want to fight you?"
Jian Jingyun was stunned. He did not expect Nie Tian to answer like that.
His thinking was very simple. Was there a need for a reason for a battle between two swordsmen?
Nie Tian smiled again and said, "You're interested in my sword intent, right? How about this, I can fight with you. However, there is a precondition. We will only compete in sword intent, not strength. "
Jian Jingyun was stunned for a moment. In the next moment, a fiery light flickered in his eyes as he nodded heavily, "Fine!"
He wanted to see how strong Nie Tian's sword intent was, but he did not want to offend Nie Tian or cause Nie Tian to misunderstand.
Nie Tian's suggestion was very good. Only competing in sword intent, not strength, was in line with Jian Jingyun's intentions.
The so-called competing in sword intent meant that both sides would only use the sword intent in their bodies without using their true meridians or godheads. It was purely a battle of sword intent.
Nie Tian knew that Jian Jingyun was very strong. He guessed that Jian Jingyun might be related to the Elder Sword. Hence, he chose this safer method. Both sides would not fight too fiercely.
"Jian Jingyun, are you ready?" Nie Tian sucked in a deep breath and said, "We will only compete in one strike. One strike to determine the winner!"
"En!" Jian Jingyun nodded his head vigorously, appearing very excited.
