Divine Brilliance - Chapter 520

Chapter 520: Sword Intent Soul Realm

Zong Shou’s brows rose up before it calmed back down.

“Sword Maniac Yuan Wushang?”

When he said these words, Zong Shou’s expression became really solemn and serious.

He silently took out several Soul Power Recovering Pills. However, he didn’t consume it, but instead directly crushed it and used the Heaven Swallowing Energy Conversion technique to absorb the essence and allow it to seep into his soul.

He couldn’t be more familiar with the teen in front of him. On his waist hung 2-inches wide, snake-shaped curved long swords. Its length was also really weird, from the handle to the tip, it was 9-inches long. At the sword tip, it was forked like that of the tongue of a snake.

His face was slightly white, his smile also looked like that of someone who was crazy.

He was pretty much the same as the Sword Maniac in the God Emperor game of his last life.

He was as famous as Jueyu and caused headaches for many of the experts in this world.

The reason he was called Sword Maniac was that he was really bloodthirsty, loved to kill people, and did anything he wanted.

This was also why he was really hard to deal with.

Jueyu was a proper man who had his own ways of dealing with matters. He had his own ideals he followed, as such, one could abuse this aspect to bully him.

As for this Yuan Wushang, he did things solely based on his own will and what he wanted to do. He did whatever he wanted and surprised everyone, he acted like that of a demon.

If he was interested, he would even dare to challenge End-realm experts. Sometimes when he was annoyed he would cause a lot of trouble, slaying millions.

Zong Shou had to face such a person like he was facing a big enemy!

“You recognize me?”

Yuan Wushang was slightly surprised, following which, he smiled happily.

“It’s really good that you do! I heard that there are three more Desolate Swords in the Cloud World. One of them is Tanqiu from the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, the other one is Feng Taiji from the Ten Thousand Sword vast habitat and the last is Gantian Mountain’s Zong Shou. However, you can’t be Feng Taiji, you’re too young. So are you Tanqiu or Zong Shou?”

Zong Shou frowned, “I am Zong Shou!”

He knew that it wasn’t important whichever identity he told him. This was because after looking at Yuan Wushang, he seemed to be determined to fight no matter what.

“It really is you!”

Yuan Wushang seemed to have predicted it and nodded his head, a weird expression appeared in his eyes, “As expected, your sword technique is exquisite and you have enough ability to be rumored on the same level as me. Your two swords just now really made me excited. Speaking of which, when I returned this time, the Lingyun Sect people found me to challenge you a few months from now! They said that it’s best to not let you live in this world anymore. I haven’t agreed yet, however, I do owe them a favor. What do you think I should do?”

Zong Shou was still expressionless and took each breath to recover his soul ocean.

“With your personality, you won’t care about favors.”

Yuan Wushang was startled when he heard this, following after, he laughed. “You’re wrong. If it was a real favor, then I would repay kindness with kindness. However, the Lingyun Sect took advantage of the situation, this is the real reason why I don’t really care! They think that I owe them a favor but it truly makes me feel annoyed!”

At this moment, the people nearby like Zong Yuan and Ruoshui had ashen-white faces. They wanted to be by Zong Shou’s side to protect him, but they were suppressed on the spot by a weird Sword Intent. It caused both of them not to dare to move.

They weren’t afraid of dying but instead, they were afraid of being a burden for Zong Shou.

Ye Feishuang and Ye Feihan’s faces too were ashen-white. The both of them weren’t like two years ago who knew nothing about matters regarding the Cloud World.

The name of the Sword Maniac, Yuan Wushang was akin to thunder to the ears.

When they heard what the Sword Maniac just said, they relaxed a bit. However, in the next instant, Yuan Wushang’s lips curled up in a weird manner.

“Don’t you think that letting such a sword expert like you fall under my sword seem like a decent thing?”

Zong Shou was still expressionless upon hearing this statement, it was Ye Feishuang’s brows who furrowed instead. Just as she wanted to activate the grade-9 Ice Flood Dragon, Yuan Wushang suddenly glanced over, “That puppet is yours? Not bad at all! However, do you believe that if it dares to move one finger, I will kill both of you?”

Ye Feishuang was astonished and immediately stopped, she quickly pulled Ye Feihan with an exceptionally ugly expression on her face.

A sharp expression appeared in Zong Shou’s eyes. He waved his sleeves and turned the grade-9 puppet beside him back into a talisman before keeping it into his sleeves.

When Yuan Wushuang saw this, he looked back. His gaze was filled with a teasing expression.

“Maybe I overestimated you… I was just joking, to think that you couldn’t take it. People like you cannot bend and cannot extend, how can you be the ruler of a nation?! Forget it, how much have you recovered?”

“70%! It’s enough to battle!”

Zong Shou took in a deep breath, following shortly after, he slightly raised his head. His expression was neither happy nor angry, a bright light shone in his pupils.

“I am a swordsman first before being a ruler. Since I cultivate the sword then I should not give up and yield to anything. Much more so against people like you, I don’t have to hold back…”

Yuan Wushang was slightly shocked, following which, he laughed out loud, it shook the heavens.

“What a good ‘not having to hold back’ speech! I like your personality! However, why do I feel like killing you more and more?”

When he said these words, Yuan Wushang instantly disappeared from Zong Shou’s eyes.

Be it his five senses or spiritual sense, he had completely lost track of him and was unable to find any traces of Yuan Wushang.

Zong Shou’s pupils constricted, he thought, ‘As expected from him!’

In the last life, he knew that Yuan Wushang was the best at this Invisible Movement Technique. He cultivated a method that be it the five elements; light, darkness, wind, cloud, lightning, everything, it all couldn’t track him.

When sparring or battling against someone, he didn’t bother about any rules. What would happen often was that when one was unable to find any traces of him, one would quickly die under his sword.

It really filled one with the desire to figure it out, if Ruoshui could learn this, then that would be great.

After thinking about this, Zong Shou suddenly slashed down behind him. He was slicing open a slight wind behind him, he then heard a loud ‘clang’.

Yuan Wushang appeared behind him. A pair of snake swords dangerously blocked Zong Shou’s broken Tan sword. Yuan Wushang’s face didn’t show any form of annoyance at all but instead showed delightment, he laughed out loud in happiness.

His entire body was like the wind, he slased out sword by sword around Zong Shou. Each sword would bring about an explosive and intense wind, the strength of the million swords might not be as high as that of a grade-9 Spiritual Grandmaster from the Yuanshi Demon Sect.

However, in terms of Martial Path Intent, he was far above. The speed of the sword was also moved crazily and acted more deceitful!

At the peak of using Sword Sense to fight in close combat. Pretty much each bit of the wind could be utilized by him, he would force the wind to gather in the middle. The wind, after getting close, could turn into lethal blades.

However, the person in the middle seemed to be a leather ball made from the toughest material in the world. The more one forced him, the stronger the repulsion was. The heavy sword shadows were airtight, even water wouldn’t be able to pass through.

This happened as such that Yuan Wushang’s snake sword was unable to get close at all.

At about 200 swords, Nine Dragon Shadows appeared behind Zong Shou. The dragons roared out before the broken Tan sword in his hand quickly stopped blocking and slashed out.

Platinum Dragon Sword, Slash!

This sword could smash metal and destroy the wind!

The white light was eye-catching and quickly flashed away in an instant. After another sword clash, Yuan Wushang laughed out loud before he retreated.

Along with the source of the wind being forced back, the maniacal wind around him also naturally disappeared.

“You’re really not bad!”

Yuan Wushang’s voice resounded out as his body disappeared once more. This time, he traveled in the light, this made him become even quicker and tougher to catch.

Zong Shou laughed out coldly. A black spot appeared on his sword tip, it caused the surrounding light to twist.

Following after, he slashed diagonally, causing Yuan Wushang to exclaim.

The two Snake Tongue sword lights appeared once more alongside another sword clash. He retreated for the second time, however, this time, he was in a bad state. The clothes on his body were torn and blood seeped from his mouth.

“So this is the sword! Unfortunately, I can’t see the entire sword yet… However, I also don’t dare to let you completely use the entire sword…”

Zong Shou stood quietly on the spot, he adjusted his breathing and raised his energy to an optimal level.

He knew that the greatest weakness of this One Origin Black Sword and One Origin White Sword was that it took a long time to store up energy.

It could be used against grade-9 beasts and spirit masters. However, in front of Yuan Wushang, it wasn’t enough.

Using this sword could only slightly threaten him.

The strength of this person’s sword was a little better than Jueyu’s! Just now, he was just probing, the true battle just ahead.

Be it Yuan Wushang or him, both of them would go all out!

The moment such thoughts rose up, Yuan Wushang laughed out loud.

“However, it’s just this bit of sword technique, it’s a little disappointing!”

Two snake-shaped sword lights suddenly exploded out and slashed while spinning over. Wherever the two sword lights passed, all the heaven and earth spiritual energy around went chaotic.

The aura was vast, everything in front of Yuan Wushang, be it the clouds or the winds or those microparticles, it all exploded out.

In the past when Zong Shou fought with others, he could often use the power of heaven and earth for his own. Even if he couldn’t use it all, he could split it with his enemy.

However, at this moment, he was completely suppressed, it was like the Yuan Wushang in front of him was the heavens!

Zong Shou had an idea, following which, he was filled with comprehension. He finally understood the path that Yuan Wushang was cultivating in.

Jueyu’s sword intent was destruction, to destroy everything. The sword intent that Yuan Wushang chose was the heaven and earth spirit that made up and controlled everything!

As expected of both of these Sword Path experts, the path they each chose was really hard to cultivate and extremely strong. These paths were close to the main source!

Numerous thoughts went through his mind. Zong Shou suddenly made up his decision and calmed down.

Out of the Nine Illusionary Dragons behind him, four of them turned real and gathered on his sword, this formed a Six Claw True Dragon. It raised its head and focused on the Yuan Wushang at the opposite of him.

… Platinum Dragon Sword, Lightning Dragon Sword, Flame Dragon Vast Sword, Wind Cloud Dragon Sword!

These four types of True Dragon swords stacked into one. When the sword light slashed out, it seemed to transform into a True Dragon, it roared out as it struck.

‘Hong!’

Along with a shocking roar, Ye Feishuang subconsciously covered her mouth at this moment.

“This is the Sword Intent Soul Realm!”
