In the great hall, Gongsun Sheng looked at Nie Tian with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
He guessed that Guiwu Kuangsha brought Nie Tian to the Shenwu City to join the Shenwu Sword Pagoda.
In fact, most swordsmen who came to the Shenwu City were here to join the Shenwu Sword Pagoda.
Gongsun Sheng had never seen someone as talented as Nie Tian at such a young age. As long as Nie Tian asked to join the Shenwu Sword Pagoda, Gongsun Sheng would agree without hesitation.
Gongsun Sheng even had another idea: to take Nie Tian as his disciple!
He felt that Nie Tian's talent in swordsmanship was even greater than Lian Wuyi's. He would have no regrets if he could take in such an outstanding disciple.
Unfortunately, Gongsun Sheng was completely wrong. Nie Tian didn't come to the Shenwu City to join the Shenwu Sword Pagoda.
Xuan Zangfeng looked at Nie Tian with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth. His eyes flickered, as if he was waiting for a good show.
He had worked with Gongsun Sheng for many years and knew the latter very well.
Gongsun Sheng looked gentle and amiable, but he was a very arrogant and stubborn person. He would never allow anyone to break the rules of the Shenwu Sword Pagoda.
Nie Tian wanted to bring forward the Evil Edge Sword Competition, which was challenging Gongsun Sheng's bottom line!
Guiwu Kuangsha's heart was in his throat. He was also worried about how Gongsun Sheng would react after Nie Tian revealed his real purpose.
Nie Tian nodded and said calmly, "Sword Master, I came to the Shenwu Sword Pagoda in hopes that you can bring forward the Evil Edge Sword Competition."
"Hmm?" Before Nie Tian could finish, Gongsun Sheng's face darkened. His eyes were extremely gloomy and an imperceptible sword intent surged around him.
Noticing Gongsun Sheng's reaction, Xuan Zangfeng could not help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He sneered inwardly and said, "Nie Tian, let's see how you deal with this. Old Man Gong Sun's tiger butt is not something that anyone can touch. "
The expression on Guiwu Kuang Sha's face changed, as his nerves instantly tensed up.
He was even worried that Gongsun Sheng would suddenly attack and kill Nie Tian.
Gongsun Sheng's face was extremely gloomy as he coldly stared at Nie Tian. After a long while, he coldly said, "Kid, your talent is not bad. This old man will pretend that I didn't hear what you just said."
The Evil Edge Sword Duel was held once every 30,000 years. This was a rule that had been set since the Shenwu Sword Pagoda was founded. It had never changed in the past million years.
Nie Tian had requested Gongsun Shengji to hold the Evil Edge Sword Competition in front of him, which was a blatant provocation in the latter's eyes.
If not for the fact that Nie Tian was brought here by the Ghost Martial Wild Sand, and that his talent in swordsmanship was monstrous and terrifying, Gongsun Sheng would have definitely killed him.
Anyone who had heard of Gongsun Shengji knew that this old man was outrageously stubborn!
Nie Tian was stunned. He could feel the suppressed anger and even the suppressed killing intent in Gongsun Shengji's eyes. He did not expect Gongsun Shengji to be so troublesome. Before he could say anything, the latter was already on fire.
"Divine Sword Master, I came to Evil Edge Island for the Evil Edge Sword Duel. I must complete it," Nie Tian calmed down a little, took a step forward, and said faintly.
He had said the same thing to Xuan Zangfeng before. The latter's reaction at that time was to kill Nie Tian. He did not know how Gongsun Shengji would react at this moment.
"How dare you!" Suddenly, Gongsun Sheng let out a low roar and stood up. His sword momentum surged out, and the entire Assembly Hall was on the verge of collapse. If it were not for the protection of the Sword Formation, it would have collapsed into ruins.
"Boom!" A violent pressure was suddenly released, pressing down on Nie Tian.
In an instant, Nie Tian felt an endless and terrifying pressure coming from the space around him. He could not avoid it at all and could only bear it.
"Puff!" Nie Tian's body trembled, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face twisted under the enormous pressure. Only the firmness in his eyes did not change.
Seeing this, Jian Jingyun and Gui Wucan stood up at the same time and exclaimed, "Nie Tian!"
Gongsun Shengji was the number one swordsman in the Nine Zones. The sword aura he released was enough to kill ordinary Paramount Gods.
At this moment, Nie Tian did not even have the chance to use his three forbidden skills. Could he resist such a terrifying sword aura?
Guiwu Kuang Sha's eyes trembled, and his face was also filled with horror. However, he did not dare to make a move, because he knew that if he did, Gongsun Shengji would definitely kill Nie Tian without hesitation.
"What a powerful martial constitution!" Xuan Zangfeng looked at Nie Tian with a serious expression.
He could sense that the pressure Gongsun Shengji was releasing was enough to kill an early Paramount God, but the fact that Nie Tian could withstand it showed how powerful his martial constitution was.
"Take back what you said just now, boy, and I'll spare your life." Gongsun Shengji's expression flickered, shocked by the strength of Nie Tian's martial constitution. Then he said in a low voice, giving Nie Tian a second chance to live.
Nie Tian looked like he was in pain, but the sharpness in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest. Unable to speak, he could only shake his head.
He had to bring forward the Evil Peak Sword Competition. That was his goal, and it would not change.
"Hmm?" Gongsun Shengji's face suddenly darkened. Killing intent flashed in his eyes. He growled, "Boy, you're forcing me to attack you. Don't blame me for what happens next."
As his deep, murderous voice echoed out, Gongsun Sheng unleashed an even more powerful sword aura, which slammed into Nie Tian like torrential waves.
At that moment, black runes seeped out of Nie Tian's body. At the same time, a strange power surged inside him.
He forcibly released his Fiendgod Energy, intending to activate his three forbidden skills to resist Gongsun Shengji's aura.
Given Gongsun Shengji's status, if his sword aura couldn't kill Nie Tian, he would be too embarrassed to attack.
Gongsun Shengji suddenly sensed that Nie Tian's aura was growing stronger. His face fell, and he was horrified.
He could not imagine that a Highgod martial artist could actually resist under his pressure!
"Boom!" But in the next moment, Nie Tian's body suddenly released violent black runes. His sword aura suddenly rose, and a terrifying sword aura bloomed.
At that moment, everyone's eyes trembled, and their faces were filled with extreme shock.
Gongsun Shengji's eyes turned slightly cold, as though he had discovered something. He stretched out his hand and released an enormous sword essence, directly suppressing Nie Tian's sword aura.
Nie Tian's body trembled, and he spat out another mouthful of blood. His face turned as white as a sheet.
But he still raised his head and stared at Gongsun Shengji with a pair of resolute eyes.
He didn't expect that Gongsun Shengji, an expert at the peak of the Sword World, would not only use his sword aura to suppress a junior, but also attack him directly.
