The sword light was as bright as the silver sky.
Sharp, as if it could pierce through anything hard.
Domineering, as if it could suppress all resistance.
Violent, as if it could destroy all resistance.
Fast, unparalleled!
Strong, unparalleled!
This sword, unparalleled, invincible!
The bright silver light filled Gu Yaoyang's eyes and continued to enlarge. In the end, it took over the world in front of him. That kind of arrogance made Gu Yaoyang's heart tremble uncontrollably.
Using his ultimate move, the Sun Millstone's defense was torn apart in an instant.
The sword light didn't dissipate and continued to attack.
It was unstoppable.
Gu Yaoyang felt as if he had been split into four pieces. He was in extreme pain and flew backwards. He couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
Gu Yaoyang's mind was in a mess. He was actually forced back and was even injured.
Unbelievable.
Ever since he stepped onto the path of a warrior, he had never been defeated by someone whose cultivation was lower than his. Even if they were of the same cultivation, they would at most be on par with him.
Stunned, Gu Yaoyang was stunned. He flew backwards and couldn't react for a while.
The silver sword light attacked again. The killing intent was like ice and snow, causing Gu Yaoyang to tremble and wake up.
"He wants to kill me …" Just as this thought appeared, a chill spread throughout his body. He couldn't help but shiver.
Gu Yaoyang didn't want to die. His talent and background both meant that he could climb to a higher peak. He couldn't die here.
"True Sun Blood Light Escape!" With a shout, Gu Yaoyang's palm hit his chest. With a groan, he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was like gold paper.
After the blood was spat out, it didn't fall. Instead, it exploded and turned into a cloud of blood mist. Then, it wrapped around Gu Yaoyang's body and made a sizzling sound as if it was ignited by fire.
With a boom, Gu Yaoyang, who had not yet landed, turned into a blood-red ray of light and exploded with a shocking force. The air behind him seemed to have been ignited, creating a shocking explosion that blasted out in all directions. The ground below was also blasted open, creating a crater that was a few meters long.
Fast, incomparably fast. It was several times faster than Gu Yaoyang's own speed. In the blink of an eye, the blood-red light had already shot forward several thousand meters.
The air in front of him was compressed into a wave of air that surged to the left and right. The wind whistled, and the cyclone rotated, bringing up dust. The center of the air wave was like a vacuum zone.
"Gone … gone …"
"Gu Yaoyang of the Ten Rising Stars was … defeated …"
The spectators were all dumbfounded, unable to react for a moment. They were in a mess in the wind.
From the moment Gu Yaoyang hit his chest and spat out his blood to the moment he turned into a streak of bloody light and fled, the whole process took less than a blink of an eye. It was too fast. Chen Zong's two swords missed, but his reaction was very fast. He directly performed the Sweeping in All Directions Body Movement and quickly flew forward.
In the battle just now, Gu Yaoyang was merciless and had a strong killing intent. Since Chen Zong had injured him and gained the upper hand, he would not allow his opponent to escape.
As for the True Yang Sect's reaction after killing Gu Yaoyang, that was another matter.
However, after using the True Yang Blood Light Escape Technique, Gu Yaoyang's speed was too fast. He was at least two to three times faster than Chen Zong, who was using the Sweeping in All Directions Body Movement. The distance between the two grew bigger and bigger. Gradually, Chen Zong could not see Gu Yaoyang anymore. He could only chase after him by following the aura left behind by his opponent.
That kind of secret technique was destined to not last for long. Once it ended, Gu Yaoyang's injuries would be even worse. At that time, he would not be able to escape.
A sharp sound broke through the air. From afar, Chen Zong saw a streak of light shoot into the sky and then explode. The red light was as dazzling as a flame, emitting an aura of extreme Yang.
"That's …" Chen Zong's pupils shrank, "True Yang Sect's signal flare."
Without a doubt, that was the signal flare released by Gu Yaoyang. The purpose was to call for help and let the True Yang Sect disciples who saw it come to help.
"Let's go."
Making a quick decision, Chen Zong gave up the chase and changed his direction.
If he continued to chase, he might be able to catch up to Gu Yaoyang. However, he did not know how long it would take. After all, Gu Yaoyang was too fast. He was already far ahead. It would not be good if he encountered other powerful True Yang Sect disciples when he caught up.
It was a bit of a pity that he had missed a chance to kill Gu Yaoyang. However, it was better to be careful in order to not fail miserably.
…
"You even dared to kill my people." Riding on the Golden Scale Beast, Long Shaojun looked at Long Zhangzhi's corpse not far away. His expression became even calmer. However, a shocking killing intent spread out from his body. This kind of killing intent was extremely cold, as if it could freeze everything.
"Vice Mansion Master, I've inquired clearly." A skinny young man in soft armor quickly walked over and bowed respectfully as he spoke.
"Speak." Long Shaojun's tone was calm, but his eyes were as cold as ice.
"Long Zhangzhi was defeated by Chen Zong. He swore to kill Chen Zong but was killed instead. Gu Yaoyang, one of the Ten Rising Stars, fought with Chen Zong. In the end, he was defeated by Chen Zong and had to use a secret technique to escape. However, Chen Zong chased after him." The skinny young man said concisely, "In this battle, Gu Yaoyang showed that he was at the early stage of Lv 5 True Martial Realm. However, Chen Zong was at the early stage of Lv 4 True Martial Realm. During the battle, he broke through to the middle stage of Lv 4 True Martial Realm and defeated Gu Yaoyang with one strike."
"Early stage of Lv 4 True Martial Realm … Middle stage of Lv 4 True Martial Realm …" Long Shaojun's expression changed slightly, and his eyes became colder.
He didn't know Chen Zong's cultivation before. Now that he knew, he wasn't surprised. What really surprised him was that Chen Zong's cultivation was one level lower than Gu Yaoyang's, but he was able to tie with him. In the end, he broke through a small level and defeated Gu Yaoyang.
"No wonder he is the Sword Son of this generation. His talent is enough to be mentioned in the same breath as the Five Chosen Ones," Long Shaojun thought to himself. He couldn't help but feel jealous. Jealousy burned like fire.
He boasted that he had a chance to become a Chosen One in three years, but in fact, he wasn't very sure. At most, he only had a 50% chance. However, with Chen Zong's talent, as long as there were no accidents, there was at least an 80% chance that he would become a Chosen One in the future.
Long Shaojun couldn't accept that someone who was weaker than him now had a greater chance of becoming a Chosen One. Especially when he wanted to recruit Chen Zong as his subordinate.
A trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes. It was full of killing intent.
"Go after him," Long Shaojun said softly.
"Yes," his subordinates responded immediately. They followed the scent left by Chen Zong.
Including Long Shaojun, there were eight people in total. Each of them was at least at Lv 6 of the Genuine Martial Realm.
After Long Shaojun and the others were far away, the crowd finally dared to speak. Otherwise, the atmosphere would have been too oppressive.
First, it was Long Shaojun's identity. Second, it was Long Shaojun's strength.
"It's over. That guy is done for."
"Yeah, he's doomed this time. The Vice Mansion Master is after him. There's no way he can survive."
"Did you hear that guy's name?"
Long Shaojun and the others didn't try to hide it when they were talking. They also mentioned Chen Zong a few times.
"I think he's called Chen Zong."
"That's right. He's called Chen Zong."
"Chen Zong. That's a strange name."
"No, I've heard this name before." Suddenly, a person's eyes flashed. He said with a flaunting tone, "This guy is undoubtedly a disciple of the Zongzheng Sword Sect. His name is Chen Zong. He's the current Sword Son of the Zongzheng Sword Sect."
"What? He's the Sword Son of the Zongzheng Sword Sect?"
"The new Sword Son after the Cold Rain Sword Lin Yuye and the Subtle Fragrance Sword Zuo Shanmei?"
"So he's the current Sword Son of the Zongzheng Sword Sect. No wonder he's so powerful. He even defeated Gu Yaoyang."
"Since he defeated Gu Yaoyang, doesn't that mean he's replacing Gu Yaoyang as one of the Ten Rising Stars?"
"That's right. Chen Zong defeated Gu Yaoyang. He's going to replace Gu Yaoyang as one of the Ten Rising Stars. Let's quickly spread the news to the Tianchi Tower." One of the men, who looked very smart, thought to himself. He quickly sped up and headed towards the Tianjiang City.
The Tianchi Tower was an organization that specialized in buying and selling information. It had a branch in the Tianjiang City. The battle between Chen Zong and Gu Yaoyang had just happened. One of them was the current Sword Son of the Zongzheng Sword Sect, while the other was the son of the leader of the Zhenyang Sect, the younger brother of Gu Zhiyang, one of the Five Heaven's Favorites, and one of the Ten Rising Stars.
Most importantly, the Sword Son of the Zongzheng Sword Sect had defeated Gu Yaoyang with a lower cultivation. This was enough to shock the world. With this kind of news, the Tianchi Tower would definitely give him a good price.
Quick, he had to be quick. He didn't want anyone else to react and steal this business.
After a period of time, Chen Zong didn't execute the Sweeping All Directions movement technique to hasten his journey and instead switched to Riding the Wind and Treading on Water. Although his speed was slightly slower than Sweeping All Directions, the consumption of strength was reduced to the lowest. With Chen Zong's current body refinement cultivation and qi refinement cultivation, it was sufficient to maintain the balance between consumption and recovery, allowing his strength to be at its peak state at all times.
Killing Long Zhangzhi was tantamount to offending Long Shaojun. In the future, he probably couldn't go to the Tianjiang City anymore.
In that case, where should he go next in order to better improve himself?
…
The blood-red light streaked across the sky and then fell, smashing a hole in the ground. When the blood-red light dissipated, an extremely wretched figure was lying in the hole. His face was like a sheet of gold, and his aura was weak.
A strong sense of dizziness spread, but Gu Yaoyang had to endure it. As a Super Genius, his will was much stronger than that of ordinary warriors. He took out a healing elixir from his mustard seed bag and took it. Then, he used his Cultivation Method to help him heal.
Two figures came from afar at an amazing speed. They emitted a strong Qi, which was as high as the Lv 7 True Martial Realm. They stopped at the edge of the hole.
"Senior Brother Lin."
"Junior Brother Yang."
These two were both disciples of the Zhenyang Sect. They both saw the person at the bottom of the hole, and their faces changed.
"Junior Brother Gu!" Their voices were full of concern.
"Senior Brothers, take me back to the sect." Gu Yaoyang's voice was still very weak.
The heart's blood was the essence of blood. The essence of blood couldn't be used easily. Otherwise, the consequences would be very serious. Just like now, he was very weak and couldn't summon much energy. He needed a long time to recover.
