My Disciples Are All Villains Novel - Chapter 801
Chapter 801: The Day The Broken Sword Is Reforged
Yu Shangrong looked at the man’s palms that caught his Longevity Sword. The man’s palms were emitting purple gas. After he brought the Longevity Sword lower, he asked, “Are you a shaman?”
The partially-blind man retreated as he said, “How dare you compare the likes of me to those third-rate shamans?”
Yu Shangrong’s Longevity Sword thrummed and vibrated.
After retreating 100 meters, the partially-blind man raised his hand and unleashed a blast of energy.
Yu Shangrong rode on the momentum and leaped upward before flipping. Then, he brought his sword down.
Energy swords spun out and sliced through the purple gas.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
The energy swords collided with the partially-blind man’s palms.
The energy grew stronger as it did the outpour of Primal Qi.
The black figure who was watching the battle from a distance widened his eyes before he retreated next to a huge tree with the partially-blind man’s cloak in hand. For some reason, his face was wet with sweat. He muttered to himself, “Who are these people?”
Meanwhile, the partially-blind man’s attacks intensified in rhythm.
The rhythm of the partially-blind man’s attacks was being intensified. He kept releasing clouds of purple gas and somehow managed to avoid the Longevity Sword.
Yu Shangrong unleashed his sword strikes at top speed; it seemed almost instinctual.
Energy swords and energy fists filled the skies. They seemed to be evenly matched.
The two opponents moved toward another peak, leaving fallen trees in their wake.
An hour later.
The moon hung high in the sky and shone on the land. It was so bright that it seemed almost as bright as day.
The partially-blind man’s energy fists were growing in intensity while Yu Shangrong’s sword slashes were picking up speed as well.
All the black figure could see were two shadows clashing over and over again in the air and the numerous energy seals.
Boom!
A deafening explosion thundered in the air as a vertical blast of energy appeared in the sky.
The power balance had finally tilted.
Both opponents retreated at the same time and stared at each other from a distance.
The partially-blind man looked at Yu Shangrong whose expression remained calm since the beginning. His eyes gleamed with excitement as he said, “Good.”
After that, the partially-blind man removed his clothes and bandana.
“A monk?” Yu Shangrong finally saw his opponent’s appearance. His opponent looked like a monk.
“I never kill someone without asking for their names. What’s yours?” The partially-blind man pointed at Yu Shangrong.
Yu Shangrong smiled faintly and said, “My apologies. You don’t have the right to know my name yet.” As he spoke, he shot toward the partially-blind man like a meteorite.
Energy swords that looked solid appeared at a greater speed.
Upon seeing this, the partially-blind man glowered before he parried with his purplish-black fists.
Bam!
The partially-blind man’s fist collided with the Longevity Sword.
Yu Shangrong let go of his Longevity Sword and joined his palms together. Thousands upon thousands of energy swords appeared around his Longevity Sword before they shot toward the partially-blind man.
Primal Restoration.
The man’s body shone with greater radiance; a stronger energy shield appeared around him immediately.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
The energy shield managed to keep the energy swords at bay.
Boom!
A wave of energy surged out violently.
Both opponents retreated.
“Hm?” Yu Shangrong raised an eyebrow as he said, “Not bad. I didn’t expect you to be able to withstand that attack.”
In close range, the Primal Restoration’s power was intense. It was akin to being stabbed by thousands upon thousands of energy sword point-blank. Yu Shangrong did not expect the partially-blind man to unleash a blast of energy capable of repelling the energy swords.
The partially-blind man heaved a long sigh before he said solemnly, “Forget it. We both have limited time. Take this final move of mine as a parting gift for you while you head to the yellow springs.”
Yu Shangrong immediately sensed the change in the partially-blind man’s aura.
The partially-blind man’s bones seemed pliable at this moment, and his skin began to wrinkle like tree bark. His arms looked as though they had been dyed purple and shone with a faint light.
Yu Shangrong loosened his grip on the sword briefly before he tightened it again.
The Longevity Sword buzzed as energy shrouded it.
At this moment, the partially-blind man shot up above Yu Shangrong. He was clearly much more agile than before. Then, he raised his fist.
In just a moment, a strong gale appeared in the area within 100 meters.
Primal Qi surged and gathered around them.
Yu Shangrong frowned slightly upon seeing this peculiar scene; his instincts warned him of danger. He said in a somewhat admiring tone, “Interesting.”
The Primal Qi gathered and surged toward the partially-blind man like a tornado. He was now at the eye of the tornado.
It did not escape Yu Shangrong’s notice that the partially-blind man seemed to be holding something in his hand at this moment. It was not an offensive weapon, based on what he could see. In his opinion, the item in the man’s hand must be what was gathering the Primal Qi. It was likely a desolate-grade treasure.
Yu Shangrong’s robes fluttered in the air as he continued watching. His Longevity Sword, the weapon that had accompanied him almost his entire life, was only a heaven-grade weaponThe strong wind lifted his robes.
A satisfied and smug expression appeared on the partially-blind man’s face as he looked at his masterpiece. “I’ve accumulated Primal Qi close to that of a Ten-leaf elite’s attack in this fist… This will kill you.”
Yu Shangrong raised his sword. The Primal Qi in his sea of Qi converged in his Longevity Sword. The power that had been stored beforehand resonated as well.
What was the son of heaven’s sword? It started with Yin and Yang; it was maintained all through spring and summer; it moved during autumn and winter; it was used by feudal lords to govern the lands.
Primal Qi coursed through Yu Shangrong’s Extraordinary Eight Meridians.
At the same time, the Primal Qi around Yu Shangrong seemed to gravitate toward the partially-blind man’s desolate-grade weapon.
Upon sensing the surging power, the partially-blind man’s confidence grew greatly.
Whizz!
The partially-blind man manifested his avatar; it was a Nine-leaf red lotus avatar. A tint of purple could be seen on his red lotus.
This reminded Yu Shangrong of his experience when he severed his lotus. The difference was the partially-blind man’s red lotus was shrouded in purple mist that complemented it.
Boosted by the 150-foot avatar, the partially-blind man leaped before he dove. He fisted his hand and swung them out. A sharp cone-shaped energy seal formed around his fist as he swung it toward Yu Shangrong’s face. He said icily, “Die.”
At this moment, Yu Shangrong raised his sword. An unyielding expression could be seen on his face. ‘The Sword Devil never retreats!’
Yu Shangrong stepped forward before vanishing out of sight. Soon after, three of his figures appeared, looking more mysterious under the moonlight.
This was one of the most powerful techniques from the Guiyuan Sword Technique: Return, Enter Three Souls.
Yu Shangrong manifested his avatar at this moment.
A Nine-leaf avatar appeared.
The partially-blind man continued to advance, confident his punch would land on his target.
At the moment the three figures merged into one, the man’s energy exploded. His entire right arm glowed red, and his fist was such a dark color that it seemed black.
When Yu Shangrong thrust his sword forward…
Bam!
The sword’s tip and the fist collided.
A huge blast of energy rippled out into the surroundings immediately.
Boom!
The impact from the shockwave created a long and narrow pit on the ground. The rocks and trees that stood in the way were immediately destroyed. The pit on the ground continued to extend until it reached the nearby mountain range. With this, the mountain quake, causing rocks to roll down.
The frown on the partially-blind man’s face deepened. He stared at the point of collision between his fist and the Longevity Sword.
The two opposing forces seemed to be stuck in a stalemate.
A contemptuous expression appeared on the partially-blind man’s face as purplish-black energy seals shot out from his fist.
Yu Shangrong looked at the energy seals. “Desolate-grade?”
The Longevity Sword vibrated.
Bam!
Faced with a desolate-grade weapon that was backed with ample power, an ominous breaking sound rang from the Longevity Sword. It was a sound that Yu Shangrong dreaded to hear. The Longevity Sword that fought by his side for so many years… was broken!
Over the centuries, Yu Shangrong had never been troubled and always maintained his composure. His heart had always been as calm as still water no matter the situation. However, at this moment, a frown could be seen on his face as rage bubbled up in his heart.
After breaking the Longevity Sword broke, the partially-blind man’s fist advanced.
Bam!
The punch struck Yu Shangrong’s protective energy. The boost from his avatar was apparent at this moment as the force from the punch dissipated after landing on his energy shield.
“I admire your sword techniques, but, alas, nobody has ever survived this punch of mine. Goodbye!” The partially-blind man pulled his fist back before he swung his fist out again. His fist punched through Yu Shangrong’s energy and arrived at Yu Shangrong’s chest.
Yu Shangrong let go of his broken Longevity Sword. He joined his index and middle finger before Primal Qi surged out. Then, he brought his hand up to meet the punch.
The partially-blind man sneered. “I might have been slightly wary of your broken sword. Now that you’ve thrown it away, you’ve completely lost whatever small chance you have of winning.”
At this moment, a faint hint of fury could be seen on Yu Shangrong’s otherwise calm expression. “My apologies. Even without my Longevity Sword, you’ll still die…”
