"You …"
"He's too arrogant. Why do I feel like beating him up?"
"Me too. I've lived for two hundred years, and I've seen countless geniuses, but I've never seen such a punching bag!"
"Did we make a mistake by bringing him here?"
Hearing those words, Sect Leader Han, Elder He, and the others nearly lost their minds.
When he heard that someone had comprehended the Gods' Sword Intent, he had gone to great lengths to search for it, even going as far as to break the rules. Yet, in the end, he had actually found his way here. This was way too infuriating!
I'll let you beat them up with your sword …
In other words, you're saying that we're no match for you even if we work together?
Arrogant!
Arrogant!
I'm Very Low Profile … Low Profile your sister!
"To be able to defeat Elder Qiu in a single move, even though he had to rely on the formation of the Elder Council, it shows that he possesses a deep understanding of combat. Allow me to give it a try …"
Suppressing the pain in his chest that was about to explode, Elder He stood up.
"He wants to challenge all of us. Let's do it together!"
Han Jianqiu shook his head and rose to his feet.
"Sect Leader …"
The rest of the elders' faces stiffened.
They were the strongest experts on the Master Teacher Continent, and yet, they were going to suppress their cultivation to challenge a Pseudo Immortal … If word of this were to spread, it would be embarrassing for them!
"The fact that he has comprehended the Gods' Sword Intent means that he is already capable of communicating with the gods. It won't be embarrassing for us to make a move together!"
Han Jianqiu said.
"Yes!"
After hesitating for a moment, everyone finally nodded.
This was the Fallen Continent, a place abandoned by the gods. The fact that he had comprehended the Gods' Sword Intent meant that his psyche had already reached an extremely profound level. Even though their cultivation bases were high, they still couldn't compare to him.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for the founder to be the only one to succeed in the several thousand years since the founding of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion.
Huala!
They all came to the hall at the same time and each took a long sword.
Sectmaster Han Jianqiu, Elder He, Elder Bai Ye, and two other elders made up a total of five people.
The five of them represented the pinnacle of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion. Even on the Master Teacher Continent, they could easily be ranked within the top thirty!
"Wait a moment …"
Zhang Xuan wasn't nervous at all. Instead, he heaved a sigh of relief. "Since all of you have agreed to fight me together, why don't we make a deal in advance … Let's make a bet!"
"Bet?"
Elder Bai Ye's eyebrows twitched as an ominous premonition rose in his heart.
Could it be that this money-grubber was up to something again and wanted to rob him?
If the Sect Master of one of the Six Great Sects and the alliance of four elders were to be snatched away by someone else … he would really be too ashamed to continue living.
If this matter were to spread, it would surely become the greatest joke in the history of the continent!
"Bet? What bet?"
Sect Leader Han Jianqiu asked.
"It's very simple. As long as I win, I'll ask you one thing. If you know, just answer me truthfully! I lost … I apologize to you all! "Zhang Xuan said.
"As long as it's not gambling …"
Hearing that the other party didn't mention anything about money, Elder Bai Ye heaved a sigh of relief.
To be honest, he was afraid of the other party's bet.
"Find out something? If I can speak, there's no harm in answering you! "
Han Jianqiu nodded. "However, there's no need for you to apologize even if you lose. As long as you keep your mouth shut about what happened today, it'll be fine."
"It's a deal!" Zhang Xuan nodded.
"It's a deal!"
Han Jianqiu said.
"Begin!"
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Xuan flicked his wrist and drew his sword from its scabbard.
Naturally, he wanted to ask about Lozosy. Since the other party had agreed to it, the rest would be easy.
Thus, he couldn't afford to lose this duel!
Even though he spoke of it casually, he knew that with their strength, it would be easy for him to defeat one of them. However, defeating all five of them at once was no easy feat.
"Begin!"
Sect Leader Han turned to the others and said, "He has comprehended the Gods' Sword Intent, so don't underestimate him. Use your full strength right from the start! "
"Yes, Sect Leader Han!"
The fact that the founder was able to snatch half a character from the Hall of Gods showed just how fearsome the Gods' Sword Intent was. Even though the other party was only at Pseudo Immortal realm, they still couldn't afford to let their guard down.
Sou!
Sect Leader Han leaped forward and thrust his sword forward.
Even though he had suppressed his Sword Intent to Pseudo Immortal realm, the endless Sword Intent felt as though an ocean. It was as if one had fallen into an abyss, unable to escape at all.
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes in astonishment.
As expected of the sect leader. His understanding of swordsmanship was far superior to that of Elder Chou Huo.
Just by making a move, he had already exerted immense pressure on Zhang Xuan.
"Flaws!"
Zhang Xuan was in no hurry to make a move.
The main reason why he was challenging so many people at once was to see their flaws, and this was a good opportunity for him to do so.
Weng!
With a light buzz, a book materialized in the Library of Heaven's Path.
"Han Jianqiu, the 23rd sect leader of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, a Semi-Divinity realm expert. He has comprehended the Emerald Tide Sword Intent, and his swordsmanship is endless. He has twelve flaws, and they are … "
"Semi-Divinity realm expert?"
Zhang Xuan widened his eyes in realization. "So, the realm above High Immortal is the Semi-Divinity realm!"
He could tell that Han Jianqiu's strength far surpassed Elder Bai Ye, Elder He, and the others, but now that he had seen it, he realized that the other party had already reached the Semi-Divinity realm.
Even though Han Jianqiu had the word 'Pseudo' in his name, the fact that there was a 'God' in his name was more than enough to show how fearsome he was.
However, as powerful as Han Jianqiu was, the other party's zhenqi cultivation was only on par with Zhang Xuan's.
As for his swordsmanship … Zhang Xuan had been completely clueless about it previously, but now that he had twelve flaws in it, he would be able to fight without any pressure.
With a flick of his wrist, he thrust his sword toward one of the flaws.
His sword qi carried the indomitable might of the Gods' Sword Intent.
Due to his low cultivation, he had not been able to use much of the Sword Intent that he had comprehended previously. However, with his cultivation at Heavenly Pseudo Immortal realm, he was able to perfectly fuse it with his body, allowing him to easily bring out seventy to eighty percent of the Sword Intent.
"Hmm?"
Not expecting the young man to see through the flaws in his moves as soon as he made a move, Han Jianqiu was stunned for a moment before he subconsciously took a step back.
"Let's attack together!"
The others also made their preparations. Without any hesitation, four swords flew toward Han Jianqiu simultaneously from four different directions.
In an instant, the room was filled with the sound of swords whimpering.
"Flaws!"
With a slight movement, Zhang Xuan dodged the combined attack. At the same time, the Library of Heaven's Path jolted, and four books fell to the ground.
It did not take long for him to gain a rough understanding of the four of them.
Other than Sect Leader Han, Elder He was the strongest among them. He had already reached Half-Semi-Divinity realm.
Elder Bai Ye and the other elder known as Huang Qing were both at Heavenly High Immortal realm, just a step away from achieving a breakthrough to Half-Semi-Divinity realm.
The remaining one shared the same surname as him, Zhang Wushang. His cultivation was clearly lower than the others, only at Heavenly High Immortal realm.
However, just because his cultivation was low did not mean that he was weak. On the contrary, his swordsmanship was superior to Elder He's. While he was still not a match for Sect Leader Han, the gap between them was not too huge. As such, he was the one who posed the greatest threat to him.
There are flaws in the swordsmanship of the five of them, but their eyes and reflexes are simply too fast. Before I can even decipher a single move, the other one will be able to make up for it …
After exchanging a few blows, Zhang Xuan's expression grew grimmer and grimmer.
He had thought that it would not be easy for him to defeat them, and it seemed like that was indeed the case.
As expected of the top figures of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, which had several thousand years of heritage. Even He Jingxuan and the others paled in comparison.
It seems like I'll have to calculate their flaws as a whole … Zhang Xuan thought.
With a thought, another book materialized in the Library of Heaven's Path.
Back on the Master Teacher Continent, Zhang Xuan had experimented with it and found that he was able to view his opponents as a whole in order to decipher their coordinated attacks.
The book materialized in the Library of Heaven's Path, and the flaws in it swiftly surfaced in his mind.
"I see …"
Knowing where the flaws in their teamwork lay, Zhang Xuan slowly walked through them.
Hu!
A piece of black cloth materialized in his palm.
"What is he trying to do?"
Han Jianqiu and the others were still in the midst of planning how they could injure Zhang Xuan when they saw his actions, and frowns surfaced on their faces.
"Sect Leader Han, Elder He, hurry up and attack! He's trying to blindfold himself!"
Elder Chou Huo, who was not participating in the battle, exclaimed.
"Blindfold himself?"
"He's trying to blindfold himself despite being attacked by the five of us?"
"The heck! I'm going to kill that brat!"
…
The crowd was stunned for a moment before smoke began to rise from their heads.
How can you humiliate us like that?
It's already shameful enough that the five of us are working together, and yet, you still want to blindfold yourself?
Sou sou sou sou!
In a fit of rage, the five of them pushed their attacks to their limits, locking down Zhang Xuan from all directions. If he were to make the slightest misstep, he would be pierced several times, and he wouldn't even know how he died.
But for some reason, as the black cloth covered his eyes, Zhang Xuan was dodging their attacks without the slightest deviation, as if he was measured with a ruler. Even though their attacks were as swift as a tidal wave, leaving no traces behind, they were unable to touch him at all.
It was as if Zhang Xuan was an insulator, swimming in the midst of their fury without suffering the slightest damage.
Hu!
With the black cloth covering his eyes, Zhang Xuan's movement technique became even more graceful.
Without the obstruction of sight, he no longer had to worry about the feints or the other party's bait. Instead, he focused on the flaws in the Library of Heaven's Path and thrust his sword forward again and again.
Deng deng deng deng!
As soon as the flaws in the formation were struck, the teamwork of the five began to crumble.
Four of the five of them were roughly equal in strength, and Sect Leader Han Jianqiu's cultivation was the highest. The Wooden Barrel Principle was the greatest flaw!
"Break!"
Infused with the Gods' Sword Intent, Han Jianqiu thrust his sword forward eight times.
Every single thrust was aimed at the flaws in the teamwork.
Dang lang! Dang lang! Dang lang!
The sound of swords falling to the ground echoed in the air. The five experts felt their arms going numb, and the swords in their hands fell to the ground simultaneously. At the center, Zhang Xuan seemed to have morphed into five silhouettes, and five surges of sword qi were aimed at their throats. As long as they moved, they would be able to pierce through their throats!
With their High Immortal realm physical bodies, it was impossible for sword qi of this level to pierce through them. However, the same could not be said for Pseudo Immortals!
If Zhang Xuan willed it, he could have killed them in a single strike!
"We have lost …"
Feeling the cold air emanating from the sword qi on his neck, Han Jianqiu shook his head bitterly.
The six strongest experts of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, including the sect leader and the First Elder, had actually been defeated by a single person and a single sword!
It seemed like Zhang Xuan's strength was far more fearsome than he had imagined!
