The Remnant Light Unsheathed
The white light spread to every corner of the void before slowly dissipating. The deep sword hum also faded away and returned to normal.
At this moment, the crowd noticed that an ancient sword had appeared in Chu Xingyun's right hand.
The sword was one meter long, and there weren't any patterns on the body of the sword. It was bright as snow and faintly emitted a sharp cold aura. The tip of the sword was dyed with a touch of pure white light that gave people a feeling of being reborn.
"This is Luo Yun's sword?" Seeing the sword, the crowd was in an uproar again.
They had all heard that before Chu Xingyun entered the Wanjian Pavilion, he had used a pitch-black heavy sword. However, after soaking in the Sword Cleansing Pool, he had never used it again. Even his shadow could not be found.
At that time, some people began to suspect that Chu Xingyun had obtained an even better sword in the Sword Pagoda and wanted to see it with their own eyes.
However, Chu Xingyun was too strong. In the first round of the Heavenly Sword Trials, he had easily defeated his opponents with his sword finger. Even when he was fighting against two opponents, he had never used his sword.
At this moment, facing Teng Qing's Transient Steps, he had finally used his sword!
Teng Qing's expression changed, but not long after, he suddenly laughed and said, "This sword of yours doesn't have any divine inscriptions on it. Although the aura it emits is pure, there is nothing worthy of praise. It is neither a King Weapon nor a Magic Weapon. It can't even be considered a Treasured Weapon."
Hearing this, the crowd came to their senses and looked over. They did not see any divine patterns. At the same time, there were no fluctuations unique to Magic Weapons or Bejeweled Weapons.
Could it be that the sword was an ordinary weapon?
As soon as this thought appeared, the crowd shook their heads and denied it.
How could a Sword Master be interested in an ordinary weapon? However, there were no divine patterns on the sword. This clearly showed that the sword was not a King Weapon!
"What a strange sword. It looks extremely ordinary, but I don't know why it gives me a sense of oppression. It seems to be there and not, real and not real. I have never felt this before," Yun Changqing murmured in a low voice and subconsciously glanced at Xia Qingcheng.
At this moment, Xia Qingcheng was also puzzled. This was the first time she had seen this sword.
"It doesn't matter if you use your sword or not. The result of this battle will not change. Even if you have a King item sword, you will not be able to catch up with my Transient Steps." Teng Qing's face was filled with confidence.
He took half a step forward. The moment he used the Divine Void Flash Step, a white light was released from his pupils.
This light was very pure, without the slightest trace of impurities. However, it approached him at an indescribable speed. It continued to enlarge and condense in his eyes, causing him to be unable to summon any thoughts of resistance.
This sword light came too fast, even faster than the rotation of the Spiritual Sea. Teng Qing's Spiritual Power gathered in the Spiritual Sea, and just as she was about to activate the Void God Transient Step, it arrived and reflected a sword light in the void.
With a low hum, the sword light flashed past.
Crack!
A crisp sound was heard, and sparks flew in all directions. The crowd only saw a sword light sweep across the void. Then, the sword in Teng Qing's hand shattered into thousands of pieces.
Teng Qing's body was frozen in place. His face was as pale as paper, and he stared at Chu Xingyun. Even when the sword shards cut into his flesh, he did not move at all.
This scene was shocking to the eyes.
Teng Qing had already activated the Divine Void Flash Step and was about to launch a fierce attack. However, at that moment, Chu Xingyun swung his sword and used the sword light to meet the enemy, directly destroying the sword.
Swoosh!
Another sound was heard. A long sword mark appeared on Teng Qing's right cheek. Dark red blood seeped out, mixed with the cold sweat on his face, and dripped to the ground.
The sound of each drop was very weak, but when it fell into Teng Qing's heart, it was extremely shocking.
He was very clear that the sword attack just now had already exceeded the scope of his knowledge.
As long as Chu Xingyun had a trace of killing intent, the sword light would not have shattered the sword, but would have directly taken his life.
With the sharpness of the sword just now, it was extremely easy for him to kill Teng Qing!
"This is Luo Yun's true strength?" Many people sighed in their hearts. Chu Xingyun was too strong.
They originally thought that Teng Qing would be able to defeat Chu Xingyun, but they did not expect that Chu Xingyun would only use one sword to break Teng Qing's sword. And that sword did not seem to be a trump card, it was just a casual sword attack.
"You still want to fight?"
Chu Xing Yun looked at Teng Qing. His voice was as calm as ever as he said indifferently, "If you use the Transient Steps with all your strength, I can't do anything to you. But if you use the Transient Steps, or if you appear, I can easily kill you. It's as easy as blowing off dust."
"You should be very clear about this. With your current strength, you can't avoid it."
Teng Qing revealed an unwilling expression when he sensed the forcefulness in Chu Xingyun's words. At the same time, he was filled with helplessness. Although he was unwilling, he had no choice but to agree with Chu Xingyun.
In the end, he gritted his teeth and spat out three words, "I admit defeat!"
These three simple words seemed to have sucked all the energy out of Teng Qing's body. Immediately after, he slowly turned around and jumped off the stage. He did not want to stay a moment longer, and he did not want to meet Chu Xingyun's eyes.
Chu Xingyun smiled faintly. He lowered his eyebrows and looked at the remnant light in his hand. He said softly, "Are you satisfied with the battle?"
Buzz!
The remnant light emitted a sword cry, as if it was responding to Chu Xingyun. Specks of white light flickered, as if it was announcing its rebirth. The sword cry that had disappeared resounded once again, and this time, it became even more resounding.
The crowd looked at Chu Xingyun, who was on the stage, and very tacitly maintained their calm. They were all thinking about how fast that sword was, and if they were the ones facing it, would they be able to dodge it in time.
This thought also appeared in Qi Yuzhen's heart, causing him to slowly withdraw his confidence. His eyes sank as he deeply pondered.
"Winner, Luo Yun!"
After a moment of silence, the blood robed elder's indifferent voice rang out, causing everyone to suddenly come back to their senses. They shifted their gazes and discovered that the blood robed elder had not stepped onto the stage, but was instead standing on the high platform.
A wooden box appeared in his hand. Inside the wooden box, there were four simple wooden tokens.
The moment Teng Qing admitted defeat, the top eight battles had already ended. Next up, it was time for the top four battles.
The person who drew the tokens was still Fan Wujie.
He stood up and swept his gaze over the four people in front of him. In a clear voice, he said, "The top eight battles were very exciting. I hope that in the following battles, you will be able to create even more surprises!"
After speaking, Fan Wujie's finger lightly tapped the air. Within the wooden box, two simple wooden tokens rose up, revealing the names on them to everyone.
On the first wooden token, there were three words: Qi Yuzhen.
On the second wooden token, there were only two words: Luo Yun.
When the crowd saw these two names, their hearts began to beat wildly, and they could not help but let out a cry of surprise.
The first battle of the top four, Chu Xingyun versus Qi Yuzhen!
This battle that everyone had been watching did not last until the end.
