The saber was the tyrant of weapons, boundlessly tyrannical. The sword was the ancestor of all weapons, the sharpest.
One could not use the edge of the saber to block the other party's sword. Xiao Chen attacked from below.
He gently raised his saber and chopped the incoming sword intent in half.
This was the boundless Starry Heavens, dotted with stars and a picturesque heavenly river. This … was also the final battlefield of two outstanding talents.
Many people did not know what the outcome of this battle would be.
Compared to the Demonic God's vast invasion, Chu Chaoyun chose to be more hidden.
Although the mysterious phenomenon in the Kunlun Continent was strange, most cultivators did not know what was going on.
Furthermore, they did not know that a battle that would decide their fate was taking place in the depths of the Starry Heavens.
In fact, not many people knew about the name Chu Chaoyun.
However, more and more peak cultivators of the Kunlun Realm came to know about this battle. The many Sovereign Martial Emperors and Primes of the Heavenly Starry Ocean landed beside Ying Zongtian and the others.
They looked at the depths of the Starry Heavens from a great distance and saw two upright figures.
They were like two resplendent stars, making the surrounding starlight appear much dimmer, unable to cover up the sharpness of these two.
Xiao Chen and Chu Chaoyun both stored up their auras, locking their gazes on each other, not wanting to miss out on any detail.
Vaguely, there was an invisible clash between the two of them.
This resulted in the divine item that the Tianwu Emperor left buzzing and trembling continuously.
Xiao Chen did not dare to attack rashly because he did not have a deep understanding of Chu Chaoyun. He had not fought with Chu Chaoyun for so many years.
Xiao Chen did not know Chu Chaoyun's strength or combat style, so he could only wait and see.
As the two faced off, their auras soared.
"Whoosh!"
The moment their auras reached their peak, Chu Chaoyun made the first move. He thrust his sword forward, gathering all his aura at the tip of his sword.
His movements were like flowing water, incredibly smooth. His grasp of timing was very precise.
However, the most brilliant thing was his understanding of the sword.
The strength of the sword lay in its sharpness. It was indestructible and could break through anything. Chu Chaoyun was able to instantly gather all his aura at the tip of his sword without any gaps.
It was sufficient to show that his attainments in the Sword Dao had already attained perfection.
The strength of the saber lay in its tyranny and violence.
However, a tyrannical aura was not something that could be achieved in one go. He needed to keep accumulating, and the more he fought, the stronger he would become.
Of course, if the opponent was weaker, he would have the advantage right from the start. There was no need for him to accumulate his strength, so it didn't count.
Xiao Chen was the number one saber cultivator of the current Kunlun Sect. He understood this principle better than anyone else.
The best choice was to retreat, temporarily avoid the sharp edge, and wait for an opportunity to strike.
However, when faced with Chu Chaoyun's most advantageous attack, he absolutely could not retreat. Once he retreated, there would be no chance for him to make a comeback.
Even if they were at a disadvantage, they absolutely could not retreat. There was only one word, fight!
Before the sword arrived, the sword aura had already arrived. This sharp sword aura blew Xiao Chen's long hair backward.
The cold light at the tip of the sword grew closer and closer to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen shouted ferociously and chopped down with his saber. At the crucial moment, his saber coincidentally met the tip of the sword.
"Chi!"
The saber and sword clashed, and sparks flew. The two exchanged glances, both seeing the sharp light in each other's eyes.
Xiao Chen forcefully blocked this thrust. He felt his hand, which held his saber, go slightly numb.
Blood seeped out of his palm.
Needless to say, he was clearly at a disadvantage in this exchange. In such a situation, Chu Chaoyun clearly held the upper hand. He should not have clashed head-on.
"I thought that I had already improved very quickly. Unexpectedly, you were still able to keep up with me. Chu Chaoyun, it looks like you have suffered a lot in the past few years, "Xiao Chen said indifferently. Although he was at a disadvantage, he could not lose his momentum.
Chu Chaoyun's lips curled up slightly. He smiled and said, "This is talent. It is not something that can be achieved just by suffering. Take another sword strike from me."
Right after Chu Chaoyun spoke, he twisted his wrist slightly. His sword aura did not decrease, continuing to stab at Xiao Chen's forehead.
At such a close distance, Chu Chaoyun could easily send out a second sword strike. However, Xiao Chen would find it difficult to send out another saber strike to block the cold light at the tip of the sword that had yet to fade.
Because there was nowhere to store energy, Xiao Chen could not execute his saber aura smoothly. It was like an assassin using a dagger to get close to him, preventing him from using a long weapon.
"Oh no! He cannot dodge this sword strike!"
Emperor Forsaken, who was watching from a distance, exclaimed. He started to worry for Xiao Chen.
"What an incredible swordsman. It is hard to imagine that the Kunlun Realm has such a strong Sword Dao expert." Even though Ying Zongtian did not like Chu Chaoyun, he had to acknowledge Chu Chaoyun's attainments in the Sword Dao.
"Xiao Chen can only retreat."
The Heaven Punishing Corpse God shook his head slightly. Being at a disadvantage right from the start was not a good sign.
"Dang!"
However, to everyone's surprise, Xiao Chen blocked this sword strike and still sent out another saber strike.
Xiao Chen spun around at an unimaginable speed. Then, when he turned around, he sent out a dangerous saber strike.
To most people, Xiao Chen did not move at all. They only saw a saber light blocking that sword strike in an incredible fashion.
After the second sword strike was blocked, the aura gathered at the tip of Chu Chaoyun's sword slowly dispersed.
The sharpness of the sword strike was significantly weaker than it was at the start. At this moment, Xiao Chen finally turned the disadvantageous situation into a draw.
Metallic clangs rang out continuously.
Before the sword strike faded completely, Chu Chaoyun chose to attack quickly. Sword images filled the sky like a storm, charging at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen fought steadily, countering the moves as they came. In just a few breaths, the two exchanged one hundred moves.
A strong saber intent and sword intent spread out continuously as the saber and sword clashed. The saber intent turned into resplendent light that could be seen clearly from far away.
The metallic clangs of the saber and sword clashing formed a storm-like melody.
It stirred the heart and made one's blood surge. This was the most exciting melody in the world.
As the saber and sword clashed, the instant the two brushed past each other, a mysterious phenomenon appeared behind them.
A flawless moon appeared behind Xiao Chen. Under the moon was a vast sea with dragons hidden in the water.
A powerful imperial city stood behind Chu Chaoyun. The imperial banners fluttered on the city walls, commanding the world.
The two were still evenly matched. Neither side showed any signs of being at a disadvantage.
The two brushed past each other. The probing had already ended. Next, it was time to fight to the death with full power.
"Dao!"
Xiao Chen shouted, and Dao Might appeared. A Dao disk appeared behind him, giving off a faint light.
Carrying a boundless Dao Might, Xiao Chen soared into the air and took the initiative to hack down with his saber.
"Dao!"
Who knew, Chu Chaoyun shouted, and a Dao disk appeared behind him as well. He had also comprehended the Great Dao Energy of the Sword Dao and was not much weaker than Xiao Chen.
The saber and sword clashed in the air again. Blood leaked out of the two's mouths as they looked at each other in surprise.
Xiao Chen spun around, and the Taiji Saber Domain appeared. His body hid in the Taiji Saber Domain.
Holding his saber, he charged over once more.
The Yin and Yang energies in the Taiji diagram under Xiao Chen's feet each turned into a saber dragon. One was bright and one was dark, appearing and disappearing.
Chu Chaoyun pushed off with his feet, and light and darkness flickered around his body, forming a black-and-white Sword Domain.
The two started fighting again. The Taiji Saber Domain and the black-and-white Sword Domain merged, clashing endlessly, clashing intensely.
They were like two huge, invisible gears that merged together but spun in different directions. "Ka! Ka!
Ka! "
The sounds of the clash shook the air. Everyone who heard it felt their hearts tremble, reaching deep into their souls.
"These two are truly evenly matched. With their cultivation of the saber and the sword, it is hard to tell who is stronger."
"Indeed, it is hard to say who will win and who will lose in this battle."
"I really wonder, where did this Chu Chaoyun suddenly come from? He is so inconceivably strong."
"He is the Tianwu Emperor's descendant. Everything is easy to explain. Don't forget, ten thousand years ago, it was the last Tianwu Emperor who severely injured the Qing Emperor, giving the Thunder King the opportunity to sneak attack. "
The breathtaking battle in the distance deeply shocked all the spectating Primes and Sovereign Martial Emperors.
Be it Xiao Chen or Chu Chaoyun, their attainments in the way of the saber and the sword far surpassed that of their peers in the Kunlun Realm.
The exquisite Martial Techniques they displayed already baffled some of the Primes, who could not understand their true profoundness.
