Chapter 274

Master Mo Da was still very certain that this sword technique would be incomparably formidable.

Its power and terror would certainly far surpass any sword technique in the Five Mountains Sword Sect; no, the sword techniques of the Five Mountains Sword Sect could not possibly compare to this one.

Thinking of this, Master Mo Da felt both helpless and happy.

Helpless because, after the Five Mountains Sword Sect had developed for so many years, it ended up being inferior to this one sword technique unleashed by Yue Lingshan.

Happy because, with Yue Lingshan's powerful sword technique.

Perhaps it could really stop Zuo Lengchan's schemes and tricks.

"The Mount Hua Sword Sect has successors!"

Master Mo Da said to himself.

Abbess Dingyi of the Mount Heng Sword Sect frowned tightly, her gaze fixed firmly on Yue Lingshan.

This daughter of the Mount Hua Sword Sect's Sect Master was only one rank lower than Yilin on the Heaven's Pride List.

This did not mean there was a huge gap in their strength.

"Yilin, are you confident in defeating Yue Lingshan?"

Abbess Dingyi asked.

She did not want Yilin to actually fight Yue Lingshan.

She asked this because she wanted to see the result of the duel between Yue Lingshan and Zuo Lengchan in a moment.

If Yue Lingshan could win, it would naturally be a good thing.

In the event that Yue Lingshan lost, Abbess Dingyi would have to consider whether Yilin should go up to challenge Zuo Lengchan.

After all, Abbess Dingyi was the Sect Master of the Mount Heng Sword Sect.

She needed to consider the development of the sect at all times.

Yilin was a Heaven's Pride talent rarely seen in a century for the Mount Heng Sword Sect.

Even if Abbess Dingyi were to die herself, she would never let anything happen to Yilin.

Yilin shook her head, "This disciple cannot be certain."

"However, I can feel that the strength of this benefactor, Yue Lingshan, and mine are about the same."

She had always been a person of few words.

She always called a spade a spade.

Therefore, there was absolutely no element of belittling herself or elevating Yue Lingshan in what she said.

It was absolutely the honest truth!

Abbess Dingyi nodded and did not continue speaking.

Daoist Tianmen of the Mount Tai Sword Sect looked at Yue Lingshan with envy and jealousy.

If only their Mount Tai Sword Sect could also produce such a brilliant young person.

The Mount Tai Sword Sect had always been at the bottom of the Five Mountains Sword Sect.

Weak in strength, weak in reputation.

In every aspect, they could not compare to the other four sects.

This had always been a pain for Daoist Tianmen.

As the Sect Master, he hoped more than anyone that the Mount Tai Sword Sect would become strong.

But in the face of reality, there was nothing he could do.

Ning Zhongze clenched her fists tightly, her palms full of sweat.

Yue Lingshan and Zuo Lengchan naturally did not know what the people below were thinking.

At this moment, they only had eyes for the enemy in front of them.

There was no one else.

Neither of them made a move, but kept staring intently at each other.

Waiting for the best and most suitable moment to strike.

Suddenly, Zuo Lengchan made the first move.

Rumble...

A series of violent sounds rang out.

Zuo Lengchan held a giant sword in his hand and stabbed rapidly toward Yue Lingshan.

His strength as a Mid-Stage Grandmaster was fully revealed on Zuo Lengchan.

"Watch this move!"

Zuo Lengchan used a move from the Mount Song Sword Sect.

He stabbed out with great force.

Hum!

A sharp, piercing sound rang out.

This was the movement caused by the sword's speed being too fast, piercing through the air.

Yue Lingshan did not panic in the slightest, her face calm as she watched this sword stab toward her from Zuo Lengchan.

The next second.

She drew the Nine Tribulations Sword from her hand.

And directly used the Nine Tribulations Sword Technique.

Clatter...

A dazzling red light flashed out from the sword's body.

In an instant, a gale blew, and the clear sky immediately turned dim.

The red light from the Nine Tribulations Sword shot straight into the clouds.

A hole was poked in the dark clouds in the sky, spilling down rays of red light.

Looking from afar, it was just like the evening glow in the sky.

Very beautiful, very good to look at!

However, Zuo Lengchan, who was about to approach Yue Lingshan, had a very dangerous feeling.

Within the charming and dazzling red light, there was a fatal threat.

"Die!"

Zuo Lengchan gritted his teeth and did not retreat.

His sword momentum did not diminish as he charged straight toward Yue Lingshan.

It had a sense of "the wind blows cold, the river is icy; the hero goes forth, never to return."

However, Zuo Lengchan was not that tragic.

He just didn't want to retreat; he wanted to kill Yue Lingshan, and he also knew that if he retreated now, he probably wouldn't have a chance to counterattack.

Yue Lingshan raised her sword and also stabbed out.

Bang!

The two swords collided.

Tip against tip.

Yue Lingshan's seemingly slender Nine Tribulations Sword did not change in the slightest.

Zuo Lengchan's thick giant sword bent.

"This... how is this possible?"

Seeing this, Zuo Lengchan widened his eyes, finding it completely unbelievable.

He had used all his strength in this strike; an ordinary Early-Stage Grandmaster would not have been able to take it at all.

They would have long since been sent flying by his massive internal energy.

Yet, not only was Yue Lingshan not shaken in the slightest.

She was even faintly beginning to suppress him.

Clearly just an Early-Stage Grandmaster, how could she possibly be a match for a Mid-Stage Grandmaster?

This was something Zuo Lengchan could not understand or figure out.

What he did not realize was that Yue Lingshan was no ordinary Early-Stage Grandmaster.

She was someone capable of ascending to the twelfth spot on the Heaven's Pride List.

Yue Lingshan was one of the top geniuses of the Nine Provinces, one of the youngest Heaven's Pride talents.

For someone like her, fighting across realms was simply a necessary condition.
