Warrior's Promise Novel - Chapter 194
Chapter 194: A Swift Sword Against a Devil Sword
Su Mo directly challenged Liu Canyang to a battle.
Liu Canyang wanted to fight Su Mo before, so Su Mo naturally did not want to relent.
Although his opponent was a martial artist at Lv 8 Spiritual Martial Realm, Su Mo was dauntless!
“I’m not afraid of his high cultivation!”
“No one knows who will be the winner!”
Su Mo was not assured that he would win, but he was assured that he would survive.
All the spectator stands quietened down again.
“Su Mo actually challenged Liu Canyang?”
Everyone was shocked again. Liu Canyang was a martial artist at Lv 8 Spiritual Martial Realm, and he was a genius disciple of the Sky Rapier Sect, so his strength spoke for itself.
Liu Canyang was already known in Skymoon Country for his deadly swordsmanship.
Did Su Mo stand a chance against him?
No, the audience did not think Su Mo could beat Liu Canyang, although Su Mo’s combat strength was astounding.
Liu Canyang stood up in the spectator stands.
He had been dying to fight Su Mo, and the chance came sooner than he had expected.
He did not think Su Mo had such an uncanny ability as to win 150 battles in a row.
However, this was exactly what Liu Canyang wanted.
Swoosh!
Liu Canyang shot out of the stand like a swift arrow and landed in the fighting ring in an instant.
“Su Mo, I really don’t know if you’re confident or ignorant!” Liu Canyang said, chuckling coldly.
“Liu Canyang, I’ve heard about your title of Devil Swordsman, and I want to see your Devil Sword today!” Su Mo said quietly with a serious expression.
Liu Canyang smirked and said, “You’re going to die at my sword!”
Whoosh!
Quick like a flash, Liu Canyang rushed towards Su Mo.
Clang!
His long sword left its sheath, glinting coldly, and was aimed at Su Mo’s lower abdomen.
Su Mo instantly swung his Black-dark Sword to parry his opponent’s attack.
Slash!
However, Liu Canyang’s swordsmanship was extremely bizarre. When his sword met Black-dark Sword, it immediately swerved and slashed towards Su Mo’s chest.
Su Mo, startled, shifted sideways at once to avoid the attack.
However, Liu Canyang’s sword was relentless and once again moved towards Su Mo’s waist.
Clang!
Su Mo grunted and blocked the attack with his sword.
After failing to make a hit, Liu Canyang’s sword swerved towards Su Mo’s abdomen.
Su Mo did not expect this tricky move at all and could only stagger back as quickly as he could.
Slice!
The sword radiance flashed past Su Mo’s shirt and tore a long hole in it.
Swoosh!
Su Mo kicked down hard to swiftly distance himself from his opponent!
“You really live up to your name, Devil Swordsman!” Su Mo said gravely, having a glance at his torn shirt.
Liu Canyang’s attacks were cunning and hard to defend.
His heavy sword was at a complete disadvantage, so if he wanted to defeat Liu Canyang, he needed to render his cunning swordsmanship useless.
“You’re going to die at my sword!”
Liu Canyang chuckled with bloodthirst in his eyes.
“Am I?”
Su Mo smiled and said, “Who knows how your Devil Sword will fare against my swift sword?”
He immediately attacked, turning into a stream of residual shadows and using his Shadow Steps. He pierced with his flashing sword towards Liu Canyang’s throat.
Since Su Mo had used Divine Wind Swordplay, the sword was so fast that it looked like a blur.
It was extremely fast!
“What?”
Liu Canyang was shocked that Su Mo’s sword was too fast for him to have a reaction.
In the face of absolute speed, all cunning techniques looked plain.
Liu Canyang could only manage to wield his sword.
Clang!
The collision of swords sent sparks flying everywhere.
Instead of being slowed down by the clash, Su Mo took advantage of this opportunity to speed up. With a tremble of the sword, sword radiance flashed and he crazily attacked over 20 times.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Liu Canyang was still a powerful expert at Lv 8 Spiritual Martial Realm, though he was overwhelmed by Su Mo’s attacks, he was still able to deflect all of them.
Su Mo attacked even faster, his sword turning into a stream of shadows that pummeled Liu Canyang.
Cunning as Liu Canyang’s swordsmanship was, he could do nothing against Su Mo’s swift attacks, other than defending.
Soon, Liu Canyang was at a disadvantage and was completely overpowered by Su Mo’s sword.
In the spectator stands, everyone’s jaw dropped again. So far, the astonishment that Su Mo gave them had almost numbed them.
He had fast body movement, unbelievable combat strength, the ability to control genuine Qi and Blood Qi, and now, also swift swordsmanship!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
In the fighting ring, Su Mo and Liu Canyang kept exchanging blows and flitting around the ring.
Blinding sword radiance shone everywhere, and powerful sword Qi exploded. The two men exchanged more than 300 attacks in only a moment.
Su Mo could not help but admit that Liu Canyang lived up to being a martial artist at Lv 8 Spiritual Martial Realm and was very powerful.
His opponent had gotten used to his swift sword and was regaining control.
If Su Mo wanted to quickly defeat Liu Canyang, he only had two choices. One was to use sword will, the other was to use his Devouring Martial Spirit.
Su Mo had never used sword will, but he had used his Martial Soul many times.
Therefore, Su Mo decided to use his Marital Soul without hesitation.
Buzz!
The Devouring Martial Spirit rumbled inside him, and a strong devouring power exploded instantly.
Liu Canyang’s attack dissipated.
Whoosh!
Su Mo used this opportunity to pierce towards Liu Canyang’s chest.
Swoosh!
As the Black-dark Sword barely pierced an inch into his chest, Liu Canyang retreated heavily.
“Su Mo, I want you dead!”
Liu Canyang roared as he swiftly retreated to the other side of the fighting ring, his face grave.
He also released his Martial Soul, which was a small snake that was only a foot long.
It was black with a silver strip on its back and nine yellow halos around it.
Rank 9 Human Class Martial Soul—Sliver-striped Snake!
After releasing his Martial Soul, Liu Canyang’s Qi grew even colder.
He used some effort to control his chaotic genuine Qi and Blood Qi, shook his long sword like a snake ready to attack, and rushed toward Su Mo.
“You want me dead, and I want you dead as well!”
Su Mo was unafraid. He used all his power to use his Martial Soul to absorb his opponent’s Blood Qi and genuine Qi and rushed towards Liu Canyang. The two men began fighting again.
Although Liu Canyang released his Martial Soul, he still needed to use some effort to control his genuine Qi and Blood Qi, so his abilities only increased partially.
However, despite his efforts to control his Qi, it still kept leaking out of him.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The two were on par, and there was no clear winner.
500 strikes!
800 strikes!
In no time, the two men had exchanged more than 1000 moves.
Everyone in the spectator stand was stunned.
“These two people are really powerful! There is still no clear winner after 1000 moves!”
“I feel like Liu Canyang suddenly got thinner!” someone said surprisedly.
