"Among the ten guards under the swordmaster's command, my overall ability is the weakest and I know the most miscellaneous things. I don't have a fixed learning style and I don't like to specialize in one direction. However, I'm ranked second among the swordmaster's guards in terms of the number of sword skills I know. I know a thing or two about almost all types of sword skills.
"When you entered the door earlier, that sword attack of yours was considered to be at the threshold of rapid speed. Let's see how good your rapid speed is! "
Sword10 mumbled to himself. Without waiting for Lin Huang to respond, he had already swung his sword.
To the onlookers, it seemed like he had only swung his sword once.
However, to Lin Huang, Sword10 had actually swung his sword up to a hundred times in an instant. Because each blade had a change that was almost invisible to the naked eye, the hundreds of blades looked a bit like a single blade. A cultivator with amazing eyesight, even if they were not proficient in Sword Dao, would be able to see that the battle sword in Sword10's hand had trembled for a moment the moment he swung his sword. The tremors created up to a hundred afterimages in an extremely weak manner.
From that swing alone, Lin Huang could tell that Sword10's Sword Dao foundation was far above his own.
It was not just about the speed of swinging his sword, it was also about extreme control under extreme speed.
At the very least, Lin Huang could not do what Sword10 had done. He estimated that he could only hide fifty swings with one swing at most for a similar technique. If he hid any more, it would be obvious that he had swung more than one swing.
When Sword10 swung his sword, up to a hundred colorless and invisible sword gleams shot through the air. It was exactly the same as the swing he had swung at the door earlier, except that there were a hundred times more of them.
Although Lin Huang could not do what Sword10 had done, he did not mind. He lifted his sword and swung it again and again, creating dense sword shadows in the air.
One could say that his technique was nothing compared to Sword10's swing. Lin Huang knew that he was no match for his opponent in this aspect, so he did not bother to compete with his technique. Although he was completely defeated in terms of technique, it was enough as long as his combat effectiveness was no worse than Sword10's.
Moreover, to an outsider, Lin Huang's swing was even cooler.
To them, Sword10's attack was just an ordinary swing of the sword. On the other hand, Lin Huang's attack looked like he had added a special effect to it. The visual impact was much stronger than Sword10's attack.
Countless blood-colored electric arcs spread out like a spider web, quickly colliding with the colorless saber radiance, exploding into a sky full of blood-colored fireworks.
Looking at the blood-colored fireworks that exploded in the air, Lin Huang revealed a thoughtful expression.
Although Lin Huang knew that Sword10's attack at the door earlier was rapid speed, he did not have the time to determine the specifics of the attack.
But this time, he finally figured out something.
"It seems to be a wind-attribute elemental profound. The effect of this blade's extreme speed seems to be brought about by the wind elemental profound …"
In a broad sense, Elemental Enlightenment was also a type of God Rule Power. However, unlike most God Rule Powers, the elemental category was a large category with very clear rules. Therefore, someone later separated it from the chaotic God Rule Power system and made it into a separate system. Later on, people called it Elemental Enlightenment.
In reality, earlier on, in a broad sense, all sorts of Martial Dao true meanings belonged to God Rule Power as well. It was later made into a separate system.
Elemental Enlightenment type of power usually had very clear elemental characteristics.
For example, the attack that Sword10 was using now. His sword gleam that contained Wind Elemental Enlightenment not only inherited the wind's extreme speed completely, but it also inherited the colorless and formless characteristic.
Just when Lin Huang figured out the truth behind Sword10's attack, Sword10's laughter came from not far away all of a sudden.
"It's rare to see someone who achieved rapid speed purely from Sword Dao skills!
"If I'm not mistaken, your attack doesn't contain lightning elemental profound. You only imitated the concept of thunder and lightning and created a saber move that is similar to the Rapid Flow of Thunder and Lightning.
Lin Huang was not surprised that Sword10 had figured out Thunder Eclipse's secret.
No matter how his opponent's cultivation base was suppressed, he was still a top heavenly god-level sword cultivator. His judgment was still there.
Before Lin Huang could confirm his speculation, Sword10 continued.
"I'm a lazy person. It takes a lot of time and effort to imitate and create sword techniques. I have to make mistakes and adjust again and again. That's why my rapid speed is activated directly with Elemental Enlightenment, which saves a lot of time and effort.
"You should've seen that attack earlier. It's the rapid speed effect from Wind Elemental Enlightenment. I have another sword technique that's also rapid speed. It's somewhat similar to your sword technique … "In reality, Lin Huang had a rough guess as soon as Sword10 said that.
"Let's see if the rapid speed activated by my Lightning Elemental Enlightenment or the rapid speed that you created by imitating lightning is more powerful!"
As soon as he said that, purple electric arcs began flashing on Sword10's body.
Purple electric arcs that were visible to the naked eye spread rapidly from his body. Even the silver battle sword in his hand was soon covered in a layer of purple plasma.
From far away, Lin Huang could sense the dangerous aura coming from the purple electric arcs. Lightning was the Elemental Enlightenment with the most powerful attack. Techniques activated with this type of Enlightenment were terrifyingly powerful.
Just as Lin Huang was on full alert, the corners of Sword10's lips curled up slightly. He suddenly thrust the battle sword in his hand forward.
It was a stab!
The speed of the technique activated by Lightning Elemental Enlightenment was already at its peak. Sword10's stab had further accelerated the sword's speed.
This extremely fast blade gave people the illusion that it was moving very slowly.
It was as if Sword10's attack had been executed slowly. Every frame of the attack could be seen clearly.
All of a sudden, the tip of the sword seemed to have frozen in the air. Countless purple electric arcs began surging out of the tip of the sword in a frenzy. They turned into a tight, inescapable net that covered the sky and covered the earth, heading toward where Lin Huang was.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Lin Huang seemed to have grown tens of thousands of arms all of a sudden. He was waving tens of thousands of blood-red battle swords. With each swing of the sword, a blood-red Thunder bloomed. It was as if tens of thousands of blood-red trees of Thunder were extending their branches into the air.
In the air, the blood-red and purple colors occupied half of the sky. They then expanded toward each other's territories. The two colors shone in the air, entangling with each other.
The interior of the palace was as bright as day under the illumination of the red and purple lights. There was almost no haze at all.
After a long while, the two colors faded away as they collided with each other. The deafening explosions finally stopped.
Lin Huang stood where he was with a serious expression on his face.
He had held nothing back in the two attacks earlier. At least, he had not held anything back in Sword Dao. Sword Dao true meaning and God-slaying Power were unleashed at the same time, and the Divine Power in his body was pushed to its limit. Even so, he could do nothing to Sword10.
On the other hand, Sword10 still wore a faint smile on his face. He seemed to have some energy left.
"There's still a lot of room for improvement in your rapid speed sword skill. It's a sword skill that imitates the concept of Thunder. If you add in Lightning Elemental Enlightenment, the speed and power of this sword skill will be incomparable to what you have now.
"Out of the ten guards under the swordmaster's command, four of them have perfectly integrated sword skills and Elemental Enlightenment. Sword2 is the best among them. His rapid speed sword skill is integrated with Light Elemental Enlightenment. His sword speed isn't something you or I can compare with. I can say without exaggeration that if you were to encounter him now, you'd be killed in one hit!
"Also, my two attacks earlier were just a warm-up. My sword can be even faster! "
