High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late
Chapter 475 - 355: Shattering Martial Saint’s Blood, Suppressing a Powerful Enemy, and Enlightening Sword Intent
But at this moment, a terrifying sword scar running from top to bottom damaged the perfection of the artwork, yet it added a certain fragmented beauty.
She didn’t care about the shattering of her clothes at this time. Her head slightly lowered, the jade pendant nestled between her grand peaks was almost completely shattered, and seeing this, a look of disbelief spread across her face.
The jade pendant that blocked this lethal strike contained the blood and will of a Tier Nine High Level War God, an entity equivalent to a human Martial Saint’s level—the strongest.
Yet such a jade pendant was on the verge of complete destruction after this attack.
"The power of this blow must have reached the Intermediate War God level?!"
"It must be an existence above Great Success Blade Momentum, is it 80%... or 90% Peak Blade Momentum?!"
"No, it can’t possibly be Peak Blade Momentum. Peak Blade Momentum can’t appear so easily!"
"This human definitely isn’t just a Fourth Level Martial Artist, at least a Grandmaster... or even a Great Grandmaster!"
Similarly, Su Mu’s foodie companion was utterly terrified. Suddenly, its master swung a blade, and although the strike wasn’t directed at it, the mere aftershocks made the foodie shiver with fear.
With that one swing, the towering ancient forest instantly toppled like leaves swept by a breeze. The ground shook violently, dust rose into the sky, and when the dust settled, the forest was gone, a vast plain newly carved out.
The depths of the Beast Cave, which once echoed with the occasional beast roars, fell silent instantly under that blade; not a breath was dared to be heard, as if fearing that supreme edge might descend upon their necks any second.
Su Mu calmly looked at the figure that blocked his strike, not surprised at all.
"Just a trace of blood and will can block my blade."
"Martial Saints are indeed powerful. I still have a long way to go to reach a Martial Saint’s strength."
Su Mu couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. If his thoughts were shared, everyone would declare Su Mu a downright lunatic.
Normally, facing such a scenario, the first thought would be the fear of being crushed by the triggered Martial Saint’s Will.
Yet Su Mu wasn’t worried at all. Instead, he was slightly amazed that the Martial Saint’s Blood and Martial Saint’s Will could block his strike.
Pulling his thoughts back, Su Mu looked forward expectantly at the figure that appeared.
The person before him was extremely beautiful, more so than those top stars on screen, so beautiful that even Su Mu was astonished that the Alien Race could possess such unparalleled beauty.
However, Su Mu knew well that this was a rose with thorns and poison.
The person before him was the Eighth Floor Illusion Realm’s trial.
The Alien Race Duobao Maiden Yuri, who was both an enemy and an ally, capable of cross-realm blood soldier trade!
"If I can’t regain clarity, under sealed power, this trial would be certain death; that guy has too many treasures, and there’s an extremely advanced stealth technique."
"But this is also an opportunity."
Su Mu’s eyes narrowed, his Blade Momentum dominant, unyielding. Now seeing Yuri appeared, he suddenly had an insight, something about his thoughts was blocked.
Whenever he swung his blade, all enemies would fall, all but Yuri was an exception.
Now they were both adversaries and allies; at least on the surface, they’ve reached an agreement. Yuri for Su Mu was also an escape route, and in terms of trade, she remains temporarily sincere, having recently sent Su Mu a Grandmaster gift package.
Su Mu wasn’t one to kill indiscriminately and certainly wouldn’t kill Yuri without reason. In his mind, Yuri remained a potential formidable foe, and even if he wanted to kill her, he couldn’t possibly kill across two realms.
But now was the chance.
"Perhaps this is the glimpse that surpasses Peak Blade Momentum!"
Thinking of this, Su Mu’s heart ignited with excitement,
"Stop, I do not wish to be your enemy, and I have never made a move against you from start to finish..."
"And you can’t keep me." In Yuri’s hand appeared a compass with an ancient design, star seas swirling upon it, emitting brilliant silver light.
"Is that so?"
"Can’t keep you?... This time, I’d like to see if you are really that difficult to kill!"
Su Mu casually spat out.
Upon hearing this.
Yuliss’s expression changed; what unbelievable luck, failing to find that ancient ruin and instead encountering this unreasonable madman, more unruly than even those arrogant Royal Family individuals.
However, Su Mu’s words also incited Yuliss’s competitive spirit, what an audacious claim, she wanted to see how this human intended to kill her.
At the moment, Yuliss didn’t bother changing into another outfit; since she had been seen, why bother patching things up, just a mere body, and a dead person having seen means nothing.
"I’ll give you time to prepare..."
After speaking, Su Mu slowly closed his eyes.
Seeing this, even Yuliss, who believed her will to be always firm, felt a surge of anger. She gritted her teeth; never before had she felt such murderous intent, and the human before her was the first!
Yuliss stared intently at Su Mu; if she forcefully used this strike, returning to the Holy Realm would be delayed by several months, which was very dangerous for her.
This strike could erase a Great Grandmaster and severely injure a Titled Grandmaster!
Yet now, she could not afford to care about all that; the man before her must die.
Moreover, she refused to believe that within the human realm exists such a young Titled Grandmaster, and that she, Yuliss, was unlucky enough to encounter one, she simply couldn’t believe she was this unfortunate.
