"Were you able to dodge Ling Tian's attack just then?" Against the Sky asked Skyfall in a low voice.
"No." Skyfall shook his head. "At such a close distance, with that kind of explosive power, there's no way I could dodge his attack. If I were to fight him, just based on that attack, if he could close the distance, I would definitely lose. "
Anyone would be shocked to hear such words coming out of the mouth of the almost invincible Doomsday Skyfall, who was ranked third on the Heaven Leaderboard.
"This Ling Tian really hid his strength well. Everyone underestimated him. Looking at it now, it seems that the arrogance he displayed before was done on purpose. Challenging the Sword Emperor was also done with sufficient preparation and purpose. As for the incredibly intelligent Long Tian Yun, he has been led by the nose the entire time, "Skyfall said in a low voice as he looked at Ling Tian. "This person is probably an esper with explosive power, or … a complete freak. Long Tian Yun is probably going to die today. "
"You're saying that Ling Tian has a chance of defeating the Sword Emperor?" Against the Sky asked in surprise.
"Originally, I also thought that it was impossible, but now it seems that it's possible. Long Tian Yun himself is starting to panic. "Skyfall said as he coldly laughed. He squinted his eyes, waiting to watch a good show. There was no doubt that the Sword Emperor was strong. If Ling Tian could defeat the Sword Emperor today, the Yan Huang Alliance would definitely suffer a great setback. Naturally, he would be happy to see this happen.
"The Sword Emperor is the Xuanyuan family's strongest player in this generation. His sword skills and sword intent are unparalleled. You've fought him before, so you should know. The explosive power that Ling Tian displayed just then was indeed shocking, but I still don't think he can defeat the Sword Emperor … However, boss, you're right. At least, there's a possibility, and it's not 'absolutely impossible'. "Against the Sky said.
It wasn't just them who thought this. From the expressions of the surrounding players, it could be seen that their expectations for this duel had completely changed. A person who could deal over 10,000 damage in one hit and insta-kill the 4th ranked Flame Emperor on the Heaven Rankings, he might really be able to defeat the Sword Emperor. If he really won, then Ling Tian would become Hua Xia's first person to defeat the Sword Emperor, and would replace the Sword Emperor as the new number one on the Heavenly Rankings!
With the Sword Emperor's strength, was it really possible for her to lose? Could Ling Tian really defeat the Sword Emperor?
"Compared to whether or not Ling Tian can defeat the Sword Emperor, I'm more interested in the fact that he just insta-killed the Flame Emperor. Just based on this, no matter what the result is, he has completely offended the entire Yan Huang Alliance. At least with Cang Yan's personality, he will hate him to the bone and will not rest until he is dead. However, when Ling Tian destroyed Cang Yan, he did it cleanly and without hesitation. If he wasn't a fool, he would know the consequences of doing so. Thinking back to what had happened yesterday, it seemed that he didn't care about offending the Yan Huang Alliance, and even seemed to be doing it on purpose. That's interesting, "Skyfall said as he tapped his chin.
"Offending the Yan Huang Alliance is already inevitable, but we can pull him over to our Skyfall Dynasty. With his level, equipment, fame, and the ability to insta-kill the Flame Emperor, he will be a great help to us! "Against The Sky said.
"That's right," Skyfall nodded, and looked straight at Ling Tian, thinking about how to pull him over to the Skyfall Dynasty.
The plains filled with countless players quietened down.
Originally, almost everyone thought that the Sword Emperor would definitely win, but now, their expectations had changed. The atmosphere, in the moment before the battle between Ling Tian and the Sword Emperor, became incomparably tense.
"Big brother, do your best!" Ling Shui Ruo clasped her hands in front of her chest, her starry eyes unblinkingly staring at her big brother on the screen, nervously muttering. She believed that he would definitely win, because in her heart, her big brother was always so omnipotent. However, she still couldn't control her nervousness. After all, the opponent was the publicly acknowledged number one expert of Hua Xia.
"Big brother Ling Tian, you must win! Even if it's the Sword Emperor, you must defeat him! "
"Big brother Ling Tian, do your best."
Hearing the girls' nervous shouts, Mu Bing Yao slightly raised her eyebrows, and expressionlessly said four words, "The Sword Emperor will lose."
Packed with countless players, the second district of the plains was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop, with only the occasional sound of the wind. Ling Tian and the Sword Emperor stood facing each other for a long time, but neither of them made a move. As the number one on the Heaven Rankings, the Sword Emperor naturally wouldn't be willing to take the initiative to attack the challenger. As for Ling Chen, he was even more unwilling to do so.
"I don't want to delay, and I don't think you want to either. This battle was initiated by me, so you should make the first move, "Ling Chen said, slightly raising his right hand, the tip of his sword pointing 45 degrees towards the ground.
A gust of wind blew past, causing the Sword Emperor's grey cloak to ripple. The Sword Emperor, who had been silent this entire time, finally moved. He was as calm as still water, but when he moved, he moved like a gale … no, it was even faster than a gale, just like how Ling Chen had killed the Flame Emperor. In a flash, the Sword Emperor disappeared and rushed in front of Ling Chen. He waved his hand, which was wrapped in grey cloth, and countless sword images appeared, stabbing towards Ling Chen's body.
"Ah!!" The crowd let out cries of shock.
This was the Sword Emperor's sword, capable of shaking the heavens and earth.
The Sword Emperor's strength was not only in his swordplay, but also in his battle instincts and explosive power. Ling Chen's vision blurred, and countless illusory swords appeared in front of him. Although the Sword Emperor only had a single sword, there were countless illusory swords in front of him, left, right, above and below him. Moreover, every single one of the illusory swords gave off a sharp aura, as if every illusory sword was a real sword, and not just an illusory image.
Of course, this wasn't a skill that belonged to the Mystic Moon world, but the Sword Emperor's own sword skills.
What entered the game world wasn't the player's body, but the player's mind. When a normal player entered the game world, they would follow the rules of the game and use the skills of their profession. However, if they were an expert swordsman in the real world, they would still be an expert swordsman in the game world. The game couldn't take away a player's memory, which meant that they wouldn't be able to control their swords, nor would they be able to make a player forget the sword skills they had learned in the real world. Similarly, Cang Yan was an extremely powerful Fire esper in the real world, and his abilities were all controlled by his mind. In the game world, he was also an expert in controlling fire. Those experts that far surpassed normal players in the game world definitely weren't so powerful for no reason.
With the Sword Emperor's first attack, the players saw countless illusory swords cutting off all of Ling Chen's paths of retreat. He clearly only had one sword, but it was as if there were countless swords cutting into Ling Chen's body. Some players who had never seen the Sword Emperor fight for the first time let out cries of shock. In that instant, they understood why the Sword Emperor was called the Sword Emperor.
In the past, when the Sword Emperor's sword came out, he would be able to slash his opponent several times … or even ten times. Ten attacks in an instant, and all of them hit their target. No matter how strong a player's HP was, they wouldn't be able to take it. As such, when the Sword Emperor killed someone, it was almost always an instant kill. Ling Tian, who had already been covered by the sword images, would be instantly killed unless his defense and HP were strong enough to withstand ten strikes from the Sword Emperor.
However …
Within the sky full of sword images, everyone could clearly see that Ling Tian's body was becoming blurry … this feeling was as if his body was behind a screen of light, becoming fleeting and blurry. The sword images seemed to pass through his body, but he still stood there without a single damage figure appearing on his body. His position was also changing due to this strange fleeting. Then, within the sword images that hadn't disappeared, the silver sword in his hand suddenly rose up, and a "Ling Tian Slash" brought out a 5 metre wide arc, cutting towards the Sword Emperor's body.
Ling Tian Slash had a 5 metre attack range, and his attack speed was incomparably fast. Enemies that were close to him had almost no chance of dodging. Just as his sword was about to touch the Sword Emperor's body, a "ding" sound rang out beside his ear.
The Sword Emperor's sword images had disappeared. The Sword Emperor's silver sword was slanted in front of his chest, firmly blocking Ling Chen's one-handed sword that had been forcefully interrupted halfway. Ling Tian's eyebrows furrowed, and he exerted force in his hand, pushing the Sword Emperor away. He also leapt backwards, separating the two of them. Then, they looked at each other, motionless.
The crowd was deathly silent.
The first exchange between Ling Tian and the Sword Emperor had shocked all of the players to the point of being tongue-tied.
Ling Tian was completely unharmed, and the Sword Emperor was completely unharmed. They hadn't seen a single damage figure appear.
"He was clearly locked down by the Sword Emperor's sword images, how could he …" Looking at the completely unharmed Ling Tian, Xiao Qiu Feng muttered, not daring to believe his own eyes. He clearly knew what the Sword Emperor's sword images were capable of.
"Heh, as expected of you!" Yun Feng clenched his fists, his eyes burning like flames. Just then, when the Sword Emperor's sword images had enveloped Ling Chen, he had been completely shocked. However, Ling Chen was completely unharmed … this meant that none of the sword images had touched his body. This made him even more shocked. According to what he knew, the Sword Emperor's sword speed could reach the terrifying height of thirteen swords per second. If he wanted to dodge all of the sword shadows, he would either have to accurately block the Sword Emperor's sword, or he would have to accurately change his position more than ten times within a second!
This definitely wasn't something that a normal human could do!
However, Ling Tian hadn't been hit even once.
The other players didn't know how terrifying the Sword Emperor's sword images were, but those who knew were the most shocked, and couldn't believe it.
"This … can't … be … possible!!"
This time, Long Tian Yun was completely shocked, and Flame Shadow was also completely dumbfounded. No matter what, they couldn't believe what they had just seen was real.
In the entire world, there was only one person who could do this … and that was the one and only 'True God' amongst players, the one who could never be surpassed … Eve!
Could it be that this Ling Tian's strength was comparable to Eve's?! Impossible, this was definitely impossible! There could only be one Eve! How could someone surpass the Sword Emperor and approach her level? Impossible!!
"As expected of the Sword Emperor, to be able to use a Silver grade sword to block." Ling Chen said as he looked at the Sword Emperor, as if he wanted to see through the cloak and see the Sword Emperor's true appearance. In the game, only Celestial grade or higher weapons could be used to block. However, the Sword Emperor had used the Silver grade sword in his hand to accurately block.
His ability to control the sword was indeed terrifying. No matter how ordinary a sword was, in his hands, it would be a terrifying godly weapon.
