Among the ten guards under Great Heaven's command, Sword10 learned everything but did not specialize in any particular direction. Sword9, on the other hand, specialized in rapid speed.
Apart from Wind Elemental Enlightenment, he was also proficient in a Speed God Rule. Not only that, but his Sword Dao cultivation was also inclined towards rapid speed. More than 70% of the sword skills he mastered were Speed.
Lin Huang gave it his all by using Seraphic Speed divine ability, Lightning and Light Type skills, as well as his rapid speed sword skill, Thunder Eclipse. However, he could barely keep up with his opponent's speed.
Due to Sword9's Wind Elemental Enlightenment, his figure was invisible to the naked eye during battle.
In the void, one could only see a dark red electric arc flashing continuously as if he was fighting something invisible.
Each time they collided, blood-red electric arcs spread everywhere. There were also countless invisible colorless sword gleams shooting in all directions.
Although Lin Huang was faintly suppressed, he managed to reach Sword9's standard with the use of his ever-changing Seraphic Speed divine ability.
At first, Sword9 thought that Lin Huang's rapid speed was similar to Sword10's. However, he soon realized that Lin Huang's rapid speed was not much different from his own.
He changed the rapid speed sword skill he used again and again, wanting to defeat Lin Huang completely and strip him of his heir status. However, he realized that Lin Huang's Seraphic Speed divine ability was perfect and extremely slippery. From beginning to end, he had not even touched the corner of Lin Huang's shirt.
Time flew by, and a day had passed.
Sword9 had been extremely frustrated for the entire day. Lin Huang's rapid speed was not as good as his opponent's, but Lin Huang's relentless attacks and slipperiness prevented Sword9 from gaining the upper hand.
Although Sword9 was slightly reluctant, Lin Huang's performance had actually met the criteria for passing. After all, he had not been able to do anything to his opponent even a little bit throughout the entire day as a guardian.
He suddenly retreated, ready to leave the battlefield and sheathe his sword to announce that Lin Huang had passed.
However, all he saw was Lin Huang speeding up and swinging his sword at him.
"You f * cking …"
Sword9 was enraged. His initial intention of letting Lin Huang pass was completely dispelled by that attack.
"You don't know what's good for you. I originally wanted to let you pass. Since you don't want to pass, don't blame me! "
After cursing in his heart, Sword9's eyes burned with rage as he went back into battle.
This battle lasted for three days and three nights. The two of them fought speed against speed, and they exerted the extreme speed that they had mastered to the extreme.
Three days had passed, and Sword9 felt more and more aggrieved. He had not been able to touch Lin Huang at all. Although Lin Huang had not attacked him as well, but he still felt.
However, Lin Huang clearly did not think so. After four days, he felt that he was getting more and more familiar with using his Seraphic Speed divine ability. He even had a vague feeling that his Seraphic Speed divine ability could break through to a god rule at any time.
However, Lin Huang clearly did not feel that way. After four days, he felt that his Seraphic Speed divine ability was getting more and more proficient. He even had a vague feeling that his Seraphic Speed divine ability could break through to a god rule at any time. Sword9 felt that this stalemate was a complete waste of time. He had been infuriated by Lin Huang for three days.
However, this time, he did not try to leave the battlefield. Instead, he spoke to Lin Huang.
"You and I have been fighting for four days …"
"Cut the crap. Keep fighting!"
Lin Huang already knew what Sword9 was going to say, so he interrupted him. After all, it was not easy for him to find a suitable rapid speed opponent. Moreover, his Seraphic Speed divine ability was about to break through. Of course, he would not stop the battle.
"You …" Veins popped on Sword9's forehead. He calmed himself down after taking a few deep breaths. He continued, "After four days of observation, I have a general understanding of your abilities. I feel that although you have many shortcomings, your talent and potential are not bad. I'm somewhat satisfied with that. Therefore, I've decided to recognize your abilities and let you pass the Ninth Palace. "
Sword9 thought that Lin Huang would stop after hearing what he said. However, he did not expect Lin Huang to attack again and again, not giving him a chance to leave the battlefield.
"I don't agree to pass!" The next second, Sword9 heard something that shocked him from Lin Huang.
What the h * ll?! This kid rejected the chance to pass?!
Sword9 did not come back to his senses for a long time. He did not understand what Lin Huang was thinking at all.
"Senior, you feel that I have many shortcomings. I think so too. Therefore, I've decided to learn and train here. I'll go to the next palace when I've completely made up for these shortcomings. " Lin Huang looked at Sword9 with a smirk. "I don't want to lose the next palace because of these shortcomings."
"You …" Sword9 did not expect Lin Huang to use his own words to shut him up.
"Senior, please don't be stingy with your teachings. I'll learn and correct myself." Lin Huang's words completely blocked Sword9's refusal before he could open his mouth.
In fact, the subtext of this sentence was: 'Just be an honest sparring partner for me! When the sparring session ends, you don't have the final say, only I do! '
Since Lin Huang had put it this way, Sword9 was completely unable to refute and could only continue to be a sparring partner.
Time flew by, and soon, another week had passed.
During this week, Sword9 was completely numb. He also roughly guessed why Lin Huang refused to pass and knew that he was indeed using him as a sparring partner. However, there was nothing he could do about it.
The participant refused to leave, and he could not force him to leave. He could only helplessly play the role of an emotionless sparring machine.
On this day, Lin Huang practiced his sword with Sword9 as usual.
All of a sudden, it was as if something in his brain had pierced through a layer of window paper. The next instant, a massive amount of information regarding the Seraphic Speed divine ability automatically poured into his brain. All of this information was instantly comprehended by Lin Huang.
The next second, the Seraphic Speed divine ability had automatically advanced to the Seraphic Speed God Rule.
As Lin Huang swung his sword, the speed of this attack instantly broke through his original sword speed limit and even increased by several times.
Alarms rang out in Sword9's mind. He wanted to block it, but it was too late. He could only watch as the sword slashed toward his neck.
However, the next instant, the blade suddenly changed direction. Before Sword9's Divine Telekinesis could capture the trajectory of this attack, a piece of the collar on the left side of his neck was already missing.
Sword9 only came back to his senses when he saw Lin Huang sheathing his sword. He also noticed that Lin Huang was holding a strip of white cloth between two fingers on his left hand.
"You've lost." Lin Huang grinned at Sword9.
Sword9 sheathed his sword expressionlessly and retreated hundreds of meters away. "Congratulations, you've passed the Ninth Palace."
"Thanks!" Lin Huang smiled and cupped his hands at Sword9. He sheathed his battle sword and strode toward the entrance of the palace.
