Book one, chapter one: Chapter 16
The sword clone coldly looked at Xia Nian. It raised a hand and the sword in its hand flew into the sky. Heaven and Earth power quickly gathered and poured into the sword, causing it to continuously grow in size until it became a 1,000-meter-long greatsword.
The greatsword gave off an immense sense of pressure, causing the surrounding air to become heavy.
Xia Nian had a faint smile on his face as he stood there and looked at the greatsword.
The sword clone grabbed out with its raised hand and the greatsword gave off an even more powerful sword power, causing the heavens and earth to dim.
The sword clone coldly looked at the evil spirit and its raised hand descended.
Boom!
A massive explosion shook the surroundings as the greatsword shot towards Xia Nian, bringing with it the power to split the heavens and earth. It was so powerful that not even Gods or Ghosts would be able to block it.
Everything around the evil spirit was collapsing, unable to withstand the pressure of the giant sword.
However, Xia Nian showed no fear. In fact, he did not seem nervous at all. He maintained his calm demeanor.
The greatsword was about to reach Xia Nian when Xia Nian attacked. A terrifying power burst out from his arm, causing it to be dyed black and blood-red as he stabbed out.
Bang!
A formless sword power swept out in all directions and the 1,000-meter-long greatsword was struck by an unimaginable power. It shattered inch by inch and fell from the sky, transforming into motes of light before dissipating.
Seeing this, the spectators could not help but start discussing.
"Xia Nian's power is too terrifying. That sword clone is not a match for Xia Nian. Only the main body has a chance of winning."
"Mm, I didn't expect Xia Nian to be so powerful either. He has exceeded our expectations."
"This battle has disappointed me. I thought there would be an intense battle, but in the end, it was a one-sided suppression. Even now, Xia Nian hasn't used Heaven's Wrath."
"I'm also very disappointed. This sword clone's power feels so ordinary."
"It's not that the sword clone's power is ordinary, alright? It's that Xia Nian is too powerful. No one would dare call him the number one swordsman. "
"Yes. The swords he possesses are the number one evil swords in the entire chaosworld."
"Do you guys want to leave? There's no way we can win this battle. You might as well go look at the other clones."
"Wait, maybe my main body will come. That will be interesting."
Xia Nian looked at the sword clone and said arrogantly, "This move is not bad. If you used it with your real body, it would be even more powerful."
The sword clone ignored Xia Nian's words and slashed at Xia Nian with its sword.
Xia Nian swung the sword in his hand and a huge sword light slashed out.
The Sword Clone was immediately forced back. After dodging the attack, the Sword Clone immediately charged at Xia Nian. The Sword Clone swung its sword twice, sending two sword lights towards Xia Nian.
Xia Nian casually slashed out and a sharp sword light sliced the two sword lights in half. The sword light then continued to slash towards the sword clone.
The Sword Clone disappeared and reappeared behind Xia Nian, slashing towards Xia Nian.
Xia Nian had expected this. He swung his sword backwards, sending out a crescent sword light that cut the Sword Clone in half.
However, what Xia Nian had hit was an illusory image. In the next second, the Sword Clone appeared in front of Xia Nian. Its sword gave off a sword light as it stabbed towards Xia Nian. It was as fast as lightning.
However, Xia Nian had long since sensed the Sword Clone's attack. He swung his sword forward, sending out a sharp sword arc.
In that instant, a supreme sword intent that surpassed the mortal world spread out from the Sword Clone. Sensing this sword intent, Xia Nian's expression changed and he panicked. He wanted to defend, but it was too late.
The sword that Xia Nian swung was cut in half by the Sword Clone, and Xia Nian's body was also cut by the sword. A very deep wound appeared, and blood flowed out like a fountain.
Xia Nian fell to the ground with a look of disbelief, and his aura became extremely weak. That attack had heavily injured Xia Nian, causing Xia Nian to lose the ability to fight.
The experts' eyes widened in shock.
"What just happened? Are my eyes playing tricks on me? Did I just see the Sword Clone cut down Xia Nian in one strike? "
"Your eyes aren't playing tricks on you. That Sword Clone really did cut down Xia Nian in one strike. We underestimated the Sword Clone, and he didn't use his full strength from the start."
"Yes, that supreme sword intent that he just unleashed made me feel as if the laws of the world were twisting. How could there be such a terrifying sword intent?"
"I'm not sure either. I've never heard of it before. Now that Xia Nian lost, he was too careless. He didn't even use the first evil sword."
"I think the Sword Clone has been suppressing this power this entire time, and at the critical moment, he heavily injured his opponent. That wound is so deep; he'll probably need to rest for a while."
"That's not bad. I sensed that the Sword Clone held back, or else Xia Nian might have died to that sword."
"It's a pity that this battle ended in such a manner."
…
Xia Nian weakly looked at the Sword Clone, feeling extremely sullen and unwilling. He hadn't even unleashed his strongest power before losing.
Xia Nian admitted that he had been careless and underestimated the Sword Clone's power. However, that sudden burst of sword intent had exceeded his expectations. Even if he had used his full power, he would have been injured.
The Sword Clone acknowledged Xia Nian's strength; he definitely ranked within the top three in the Primal Chaos World, and he might even be number one. In other words, he was the most powerful genius in the Primal Chaos World.
If he wanted to deal with such a powerhouse, it would indeed be very difficult for the sword clone to do so. However, if he could catch Evil Spirit off guard, he could still severely injure Evil Spirit in one blow.
What the Sword Clone had used just then was the terrifying sword intent created by fusing three rays of sword intent.
"I refuse to accept this!" Xia Nian said weakly.
The Sword Clone ignored him; he could sense Xia Nian's Fate weakening, and his body started to dissipate.
Xia Nian said angrily, "I'll definitely find your main body to fight. I definitely won't be so careless then."
Now that Xia Nian had suffered a loss, he firmly believed in the saying that he could not underestimate his opponent.
Seeing this, the various experts all sighed. Now that the victor had been decided, there was no need for them to stay here.
Some of the higher-beings went up to examine Xia Nian's injuries. From Xia Nian's injuries, they could sense how powerful the sword intent was; even high-grade healing medicines were useless.
The news quickly spread; no one had expected that Xia Nian would lose like this, and they felt that it was quite a pity.
However, no one said anything; a loss was a loss. Sometimes, one only had one life, and there was no chance for regret.
Fortunately, the Sword Clone had not killed Xia Nian, or Xia Nian would not even have had the chance to regret it.
The people outside the golden aura flames were discussing this matter. Now, two peerless geniuses had been defeated by Zhao Fu's clone, leaving five. Who would the remaining five be?
