"Sword 37!"
After breaking Chen Zong's defense with multiple swords, Gu Jianxie felt a great pressure.
His attack paused, and his tyrannical aura also stopped. It was like a candle in the wind that was about to be extinguished, but it suddenly surged.
Boom!
There was a faint roar that went straight to the Ninth Heaven and shattered the vacuum.
Gu Jianxie held the quaint longsword in front of him. The sword trembled slightly and emitted a rapid sword hum. Amazing Super Spiritual Power fluctuated on the sword.
Kill!
In just a split second, Gu Jianxie had already unleashed twenty-one sword strikes. The power of each strike had reached its peak, and the power of each strike was extremely terrifying.
Regardless of whether it was in terms of subtlety, power, or speed, this move had reached an astonishing height. Chen Zong's eyes suddenly lit up.
Superb!
Gu Jianxie's swordsmanship was indeed very superb.
However, it was still not enough to defeat him. After all, Chen Zong's swordsmanship was not inferior to Gu Jianxie's. There were also differences between Super Spiritual Powers.
In order to form Super Spiritual Power, one needed to cultivate a Saint Level Cultivation Technique.
The more superb a Saint Level Cultivation Technique was, the more difficult it was to replace the original Spiritual Level Cultivation Technique. For example, Chen Zong's Taiyuan Cloud Shattering Technique could not replace the White Cloud Technique without the help of the Great Abyss King's memory and the Ice Spirit Mysterious Fruit. Even with a secret technique like the Nine Rotation Technique, Chen Zong could not replace the White Cloud Technique.
Gu Jianxie cultivated the Intermediate Saint Level Cultivation Technique of the Five Extinction Heavenly Palace's Sword Extinction Lineage. He had also received the help of an expert from the Sword Extinction Lineage. Therefore, not only had he cultivated the Intermediate Saint Level Cultivation Technique to the fifth level, but he had also continuously fused and transformed his Spiritual Wheels.
However, with the help of an expert, the consumption of energy was too great. In the end, Gu Jianxie wasn't able to completely transform the spiritual wheels. It was only the initial transformation. After entering the Ice Emperor's Secret Realm, Gu Jianxie had some fortuitous encounters and finally took the final step. He completely transformed the nine spiritual wheels and truly possessed super spiritual power.
However, a fifth level Intermediate Saint Level Cultivation Technique could not compare to a fifth level Upper Saint Level Cultivation Technique.
Unable to do anything to Chen Zong, Gu Jianxie's expression became more and more solemn.
Then, the solemn expression on his face completely disappeared.
"Chen Zong, if you can withstand my attack, I'll admit defeat." Gu Jianxie's voice became faintly discernible. His entire body seemed to have become weightless as he floated up into the air. His body seemed to be swaying, and the air around him rippled like water, giving off an indescribably mysterious fluctuation.
Chen Zong didn't make the first move. Instead, he waited for Gu Jianxie to make his move. This was because Chen Zong wanted to see what kind of sword technique and attack Gu Jianxie would use next.
He guessed that it should be a Saint-level sword technique.
Gu Jianxie, who had amazing talent in Sword Principle, must have comprehended and cultivated a Saint Level Sword Art.
However, he didn't know what level of Saint Class Sword Art Gu Jianxie was practicing. It should be a Saint Class Lower Class Sword Art, but he didn't know what level it was at.
Among his peers, Chen Zong had only seen the first move of the Mountain Shifting Sword Art performed by Sword Marquis Mountain. It was a low-grade saint level sword art with great power.
"First Sword … Drifting Snow!"
Gu Jianxie's voice also became erratic. The moment he finished speaking, his swaying body also stopped. Whistling sounds suddenly rang out from all directions. It was the sound of a cold wind blowing wildly, and ice and snow that filled the sky swept over from the heavens and the earth. The wind carried an inexplicable heavenly might, and it froze the sky and the earth.
In just an instant, the area within a radius of several hundred meters was covered by extremely violent and chaotic ice and snow. Chen Zong and Gu Jianxie's bodies also disappeared, as if they were swallowed up.
Cold!
Astonishingly cold!
The First Sword, Drifting Snow, was the first move of a low-grade saint level sword art. Once performed, it would create a scene of snowflakes all over the sky. The coldness was astonishing. Especially when performed in the Ice Emperor's Secret Realm, it would cause the temperature to drop even more.
If Chen Zong wasn't strong enough, the coldness caused by this move would be enough to freeze Chen Zong's body, causing him to lose all ability to resist.
However, at this moment, Chen Zong could completely withstand the attack of this astonishing coldness. It was just that his super spiritual energy was slowly circulating in his body.
Chen Zong still didn't move, allowing Gu Jianxie to perform.
Gu Jianxie also knew this, so he wasn't in a hurry to perform this move. Instead, he kept accumulating his aura and increasing it.
In an instant, Gu Jianxie could also perform the First Sword, Drifting Snow. However, there was still a big gap between this and having time to accumulate his aura. At the very least, the power of this move would increase by 10% or 20%.
With Gu Jianxie's strength, an increase of 10% or 20% would be extremely terrifying.
Kill!
After three breaths, Gu Jianxie's aura had accumulated to the extreme. He couldn't hold it back anymore and stabbed out with his sword.
The extremely bright sword-light tore through the sky. The moment the sword appeared, the snow and ice that were fluttering in the sky also stopped, and the fierce wind stopped.
Immediately after, the fierce wind and snow that had stopped bombarded Chen Zong with even more astonishing speed and power, as if they wanted to suppress Chen Zong. An extremely cold sword-light pierced through the chaotic snow and ice and silently attacked Chen Zong.
It wasn't fast, but it blended in with the snow and ice in the sky, making it difficult to distinguish. Of course, this was relative.
However, it was nothing to Chen Zong. With his powerful perception, Chen Zong had already "seen" it clearly.
After the Taiyuan Cloud-scraping Skill replaced the White Cloud Ultimate Skill, Chen Zong's spiritual energy had turned into super spiritual energy, allowing his perception to break through the original limit and become even more powerful.
With a shake of the Heavy Dragon Sword, an astonishing dragon roar resounded in the sky. Immediately after, a pitch-black sword-light shattered the surrounding snow and ice, as if it had bombarded a vacuum, and heavily slashed down with the terrifying power of an ancient mountain.
This sword made Gu Jianxie's expression change drastically. He felt as if he had become insignificant in front of it, even if he had used a Saint Level sword technique like the Snowflake Sword with all his strength. It was as if he was standing in front of a tall mountain.
This was the gap between their levels and realms.
The Taiyuan Cloud-scraping Skill was a top Saint Level Upper Level technique, while Chen Zong's swordsmanship realm had reached the fourth level. No matter in which aspect, he was superior to Gu Jianxie.
This gap was the suppression of realms, an unsurpassable suppression.
Break!
The power of the Snowflake Sword was instantly broken by Chen Zong's sword. The terrifying impact caused Gu Jianxie to retreat continuously. His long sword was shaking, and his arm was numb. His blood and Qi were surging, and his super spiritual energy was chaotic.
Defeated!
Unavoidably, this was a real defeat.
One had to know that this was already his strongest sword move.
Of course, he still had secret arts that he hadn't used yet. However, his opponent hadn't used any secret arts either.
"You win." Gu Jianxie's expression was extremely complicated. He said to Chen Zong with both unwillingness and admiration.
Ever since he was a child, Gu Jianxie's cultivation had always been smooth sailing. He had defeated countless people of the same generation and surpassed many of the previous generation. Fortunately, his temperament was very tenacious, and he wouldn't go crazy from failure.
Chen Zong nodded inwardly. A person like Gu Jianxie would make great progress after experiencing setbacks.
"Goodbye." Gu Jianxie's figure flickered and disappeared in the fluttering snow.
Gazing at Gu Jianxie's departing figure, Chen Zong withdrew his gaze and continued forward.
Gu Jianxie's strength was indeed not bad. He wasn't any weaker than Marquis Sword Mountain. In fact, Chen Zong felt that Gu Jianxie had a higher chance of winning.
Of course, the premise was that Gu Jianxie also had a quasi-saint tool.
Collecting his thoughts, Chen Zong had a clearer understanding of his current strength.
Gu Jianxie's strength wasn't any weaker than Marquis Sword Mountain, but he couldn't do anything to Chen Zong. Moreover, Chen Zong didn't even use the low-grade saint level Thousand Men Extreme Beheading Sword Art. He only used his super spiritual energy, and Gu Jianxie couldn't do anything to him.
However, he still didn't know how strong he was.
"But I wonder how many geniuses from Tian Yuan Sacred Region entered the Ice Emperor Secret Domain this time?" Chen Zong's eyes flickered, "I wonder if there are any geniuses stronger than Marquis Sword Mountain?"
Chen Zong sincerely hoped that there were. He also hoped that he could exchange blows with them to verify his strength and see the level of Tian Yuan Sacred Region's geniuses.
…
"Ancient Battle Stele, a ten-meter-tall Ancient Battle Stele has appeared this time. Could it be a king level Ancient Battle Stele? This King is indeed a man of great luck. " King Eclipse of Tian Yuan Sacred Region stared at the ten-meter-tall Black Stele in front of him. Sensing the astonishing and mysterious aura it emitted, he immediately smiled.
Ancient Battle Stele was a kind of ancient stele left behind by an ancient expert. It contained an unfathomable power, and was also a kind of test. If one could pass the test, they would be able to obtain benefits from it.
"This Ancient Battle Stele hasn't been challenged yet, so I'll be the one to break through it." King Eclipse smiled. His smile was filled with unparalleled confidence, as if he was a god looking down on the mortal world.
Shortly after, King Eclipse's figure flashed and directly charged at the Ancient Battle Stele. There was no collision. His body instantly melted into the Ancient Battle Stele, disappearing as if he had entered water.
With a flicker of light, the Ancient Battle Stele's aura was also restrained, becoming ordinary.
…
"What is this?" Green Dragon stared at the six-meter-tall Black Stele in front of him, puzzled.
"Brother Green Dragon, this Stele looks extraordinary," another disciple of the East Li Clan said.
This was a reflection of the Sky Pillar Upper Region's overall foundation as compared to Tian Yuan Sacred Region. They couldn't recognize it as an Ancient Battle Stele and didn't know it was an opportunity. It had been a long time since an Ancient Battle Stele had appeared in the Ice Emperor Secret Realm, so the supreme experts of the East Li Clan didn't mention it either.
"Let me have a look." Green Dragon's figure flashed like a snake and instantly approached the Stele. He reached out his left hand wrapped in a layer of spiritual power and gently touched the Stele.
However, the Stele was like a reflection on the water surface. Layers of thin ripples spread out from it, which shocked Green Dragon.
Immediately, Green Dragon's left hand moved forward, disappearing into the Stele.
"Could it be …" A guess popped up in Green Dragon's mind. He also stepped forward, disappearing into the Stele.
"It's gone?" Behind him, the genius of the East Li Clan stared with his eyes wide open. He shouted in surprise, "Brother Green Dragon!"
No one responded. The genius of the East Li Clan also approached the Stele. He reached out his hand to touch it, but all he felt was coldness and hardness. It was so cold that he couldn't help but shiver. He quickly let go of his hand.
He didn't dare to touch it again. Instead, he circled the Black Stele and observed it carefully. However, he couldn't find anything special about it.
