Supreme of the Heavenly Realm-Chapter 751 - 745: Hundred Swords Unleashed

"You managed to withstand three moves; it seems your strength is not bad."

Marquis Long Jian looked at Ye Xuan. There weren’t many who could survive three moves against him, and among the younger generation, they were even fewer. Ye Xuan had managed to exchange three moves with him relying only on his swordsmanship, which was truly unexpected.

Now, although his cultivation was limited to the level of a First Grade Martial Saint, the clashes between geniuses had never been about cultivation level but rather about mastery in Martial Arts. After all, geniuses were often able to challenge those beyond their rank.

However, the first three forms weren’t very powerful; they served mostly as a preparation for the moves that were to follow.

The real show began with the fourth form.

"Fourth Form, Eternal Sword!"

Taking a deep breath, Marquis Long Jian lunged forward in one stride. His body rushed over, and from the Dragon Slayer Sword in his hands, he thrust out dozens, even hundreds of stabs in an instant. Each strike was infused with powerful piercing force, and every stroke released dazzling sword light, which shined like stars against the friction of space, hard as diamond.

Sure enough, the power of the fourth form was a clear step above.

"Rainwater Sword Formation!"

As the Sword Formation was deployed, countless Sword Qi spiraled into motion, creating an immense sword pressure that burst forth from within Ye Xuan, instantly impacting Marquis Long Jian’s body.

"It’s sword pressure!"

Marquis Long Jian was naturally familiar with Sword Formations, but he had underestimated the sword pressure released by Ye Xuan through the formation. His body suddenly stalled, and flaws began to show in the fourth form.

A spark of cold light flashed; Ye Xuan made his move.

Ptui! freeweɓnovel-cøm

A streak of blood sprayed, leaving a sword mark across Marquis Long Jian’s cheek.

At the critical moment, he forcibly shifted his body to dodge the lethal sword strike.

"Break!"

Blood trickled from the corner of Marquis Long Jian’s mouth, being interrupted during the fourth form caused him significant backlash. True Yuan surged through him, and in the hands of Marquis Long Jian, the Dragon Slayer Sword emitted a strong yet non-blinding starlight. With one sweep of the sword, a large expanse of starlight burst forth, engulfing the vast chamber in a thick glow.

Having his rhythm disrupted by Ye Xuan, Marquis Long Jian directly executed the fifth form, Starlight Flash.

The vast space for the duel became encompassed by the starlight.

"Rainwater Sword Formation, a hundred swords unleashed!"

Ye Xuan executed Human Sword Unity; it wasn’t just he who seemed to merge with the Rain Saint Sword in his hand—each stream of Sword Qi from the formation blended with him. It wasn’t just Human Sword Unity; he became one with the entire Sword Formation.

At this moment, the aura of the entire Sword Formation suddenly erupted.

Over a hundred sword pressures shot out almost simultaneously. In that instant, Ye Xuan’s True Yuan was nearly halved, but fortunately, the Earth Emperor Book held a reserve of True Yuan. In a moment, it replenished what was lost.

Boom, Boom!

Starlight Flash against a hundred swords firing together caused the entire arena to shake violently. Wind roared and waves of force erupted as both retreated.

But there was a difference: Ye Xuan seemed unscathed, while Marquis Long Jian spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. Forcibly shifting his body had already damaged his insides. Having his fifth form interrupted worsened the injury, and then clashing head-on with Ye Xuan meant that he could no longer hold back.

Marquis Long Jian was injured! And his injuries were not light.

"The fifth move has been broken!"

Ling Hanye’s expression changed instantly. The scene before him was undoubtedly beyond belief, completely different from the expectations at the start of the battle. Initially, Marquis Long Jian possessed an absolutely overwhelming presence, attacking Ye Xuan who seemed to have no power to fight back. But now, it was Marquis Long Jian who had sustained an injury, while Ye Xuan remained unscathed.

Everyone present couldn’t help but admit they had underestimated Ye Xuan. His swordsmanship was certainly not as flashy or domineering as Marquis Long Jian’s, nor did it carry Marquis Long Jian’s chilling murderous aura. Yet, his swordsmanship had always been efficient—no need for flashiness, no need for a chilling murderous aura. "I can catch your sword and counterattack effectively, causing you to be injured."

It could be said that Ye Xuan’s approach to swordsmanship was the simplest, stripping away all that was unnecessary, leaving only the purest essence.

This was a return to simplicity and truth.

Not only in swordsmanship, but in any Martial Arts, the path that one eventually takes is to return to simplicity and truth. While it is easy to say, even though many are aware of this, the vast majority still cannot achieve it.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Marquis Long Jian’s eyes were cold. He had anticipated a fierce duel, but he had never imagined that he might be at a disadvantage, let alone face the possibility of defeat.

But just now, Ye Xuan had given him a premonition of losing.

"I almost couldn’t even make it to the sixth move."

Marquis Long Jian let out a self-deprecating laugh. If he had been directly slain by Ye Xuan a moment ago, he wouldn’t even have had a chance for regret.

Fortunately, he had withstood Ye Xuan’s ferocious blow. For him, there was still a chance to win.

"The power of the sixth move will exceed your imagination. Using the kind of offensive you did just now must have left you with very little True Yuan."

Marquis Long Jian sneered. Just now, Ye Xuan’s simultaneous release of a hundred swords had been majestic, more powerful than his own Star Flash Brilliance, and had also made him spit blood. Now, Ye Xuan must be at his limit, with little True Yuan remaining.

Logically, it should be so.

"The Sixth Form is finally coming, huh?"

At this time, even Yuan Taiyi, Gu Hanxiang, and Sikong Wuji all had serious expressions. The Seven Stars Dragon Killing Sword Skill was already famous among the younger generation. Marquis Long Jian’s strength was not much different from theirs, and his killing moves also posed a great threat to them. Now, by observing it through Ye Xuan, they could have a better chance of winning when they faced Marquis Long Jian later.

"Ye Xuan is in danger."

Ling Hanye sighed softly. It seemed that he was indeed not a match for Marquis Long Jian. He couldn’t even catch the fifth move, let alone the sixth move of the Seven Stars Dragon Killing Sword Skill now.

Originally, he also believed that Ye Xuan could create a miraculous turnaround, but with the sixth move out, that possibility would greatly decrease.

"Seven Stars Dragon Killing Sword Skill, The Sixth Form! It’s rumored to be able to slay even dragons!"

Jun Luoyu, too, watched Marquis Long Jian with a heavy gaze. From the latter’s body, a powerful aura burst forth at this moment.

Although the injuries had weakened this aura significantly, if it were Marquis Long Jian at his peak, this attack would likely be several times stronger than the fifth move.

Even now, injured as he was, the Sixth Form was still much stronger than the fifth. On the other hand, Ye Xuan, who had already exerted all his strength, could he still withstand it? At least in the eyes of most people, Ye Xuan had already given it his all.

Are you kidding? If Ye Xuan wasn’t giving his all, could he have injured Marsquis Long Jian, ranked fifth on the Holy List? That would be a joke, wouldn’t it?

"The Sixth Form, Dragon’s Lament!"

As soon as the words fell, Marquis Long Jian’s figure took flight, approaching with incredible speed that was beyond words. He was like a streak of aurora from the cosmic starry sea, crossing the boundless void, lunging at Ye Xuan. What was more terrifying was the dragon-shaped force that burst out around Marquis Long Jian, who was in Human Sword Unity with the Dragon Slayer Sword, just as the sword move was about to be unleashed. It was a headless colossal dragon, radiating endless Aggressive Energy, as if it had been beheaded by a sword.
