Chapter 711: I Have a Sword That Can Open Heaven, Collapse Mountains, Slaughter Gods, Slay Dragons, and Split the Earth
The clouds broke and the sky cleared.
A sword came from the south.
The blade was three feet eight inches long, with a net weight of eight catties and two taels.
The sword body was rich with an ancient aura, as if it had been imbued for thousands or tens of thousands of years.
The sword body felt warm to the touch, like the rising morning sun.
As it landed in Yu Liancheng's slender palm, it possessed a spirit of its own, vibrating with a "humming" sound, as if in excitement, as if in submission; ripples spread out from around the sword's body, and Sword Qi soared into the heavens.
This sword, rich with an ancient aura, came from the Sword Pavilion of the South Jin.
Sword Saint Liu Bai sat cross-legged by the pool, looking at the dried-up water before him, thinking of the ancient sword that had exhausted his countless heart's blood to break out of the pool, and remained silent.
This "Sword Saint," hailed as invincible in the human world, appeared somewhat weak and exhausted at this moment.
To forge that ancient sword, he did not know how much heart's blood he had expended; the sword held his Sword Intent and his spirit and vigor—it was the strongest sword in the human world.
When the ancient sword left the pool and pierced through the clouds, his Sword Intent and spirit and vigor departed with it, so he was naturally weak.
His life-bound sword had been taken, yet there was no expression of anger on Liu Bai's face; deep within his eyes, he appeared somewhat excited instead.
Because he had perceived into whose hands that sword had fallen; that was the only person in the world, besides Fuzi, who could make him submit in the Sword Dao.
Moreover, the deed that sword was about to perform also made him feel a sense of shared honor, feeling honored and proud.
……
The giant God General swung his sword, the sword like a mountain, slashing toward Yu Liancheng.
"I have a sword..."
Yu Liancheng stepped through the void, his black robes whistling in the wind.
He finally made his move, raising his sword toward the sky, the tip pointing straight at the firmament, as if to pierce through the canopy of heaven.
An intangible and formless Sword Intent permeated outward. On the Wilderness battlefield below, there were hundreds of thousands of people, including battle-hardened Wild People warriors and Knowing Destiny Realm cultivators who could fight a hundred alone. Yet at this moment, they all inexplicably felt as if they were standing on a precarious tower in a wild wind, ready to fall into a bottomless abyss at any moment.
Suddenly, a brilliant sword light erupted from the tip of the blade, shooting into the sky.
And when the sword light spilled onto the Wilderness battlefield, swords, sabers, axes, and all manner of weapons broke free from their owners' palms and stuck into the ground, swaying incessantly, as if bowing their heads in submission, like subjects before an emperor.
"Can open Heaven..."
This sword was finally slashed out, the Sword Qi soaring into the heavens. A long crack appeared in the sky, which had previously been filled with golden light; the crack was extremely deep, as if the earth had been plowed by an old ox. It split the bright sky in two, completely severing it. Countless people were shocked by this sword, their eyes dazed, revealing indescribable astonishment.
"Can collapse mountains..."
The sword light collided with the giant Light Sword swung by the God of Light.
Before the Light Sword, this beam of sword light was so insignificant, just like a blade of grass clashing against a towering Divine Mountain. Where they collided, the clanging sounds of metal striking metal exploded one after another, deafening to the ear. Sparks and electric light burst forth in succession, raining down like a brilliant meteor shower.
Crack!
A shattering sound resonated across the entire Wilderness, making everyone's heart skip a beat.
A shocking crack appeared on the God of Light's Light Sword, and immediately after, the "crack-crack" sound of shattering was incessant; in an instant, it had spread across the entire Light Sword. Large chunks of the sword body fell from the sky like collapsing mountains, smashing heavily toward the ground, only to be annihilated into dust before they even landed.
"Can slaughter Gods..."
The sword light in Yu Liancheng's hand was not yet exhausted, as if it would never be exhausted for all eternity.
After shattering this Light Sword and piercing through hundreds of thousands of light fragments, it landed on the Golden War Chariot and on the face of the God of Light.
On the God of Light's perfect face, an extremely fine sword mark instantly appeared, and thus it was no longer perfect. The indifferent face appeared somewhat comical for no longer being perfect.
The sword light slid straight downward without the slightest hesitation, from the God General's head to the neck, then to the chest, the abdomen... continuing downward. Centered on this sword mark, the "crack-crack-crack" sound of shattering was continuous, the cracks spreading to the entire majestic body; the armor formed from Haotian Divine Brilliance also began to crack.
A moment later, the God of Light also shattered, turning into countless transparent crystals that whistled as they fell toward the Wilderness, like a violent meteor shower.
These crystals did not annihilate like the Light Sword; each crystal contained unimaginable divine power of light, continuously falling to the ground, kicking up countless dust and igniting high-temperature, scorching flames that spread across the entire Wilderness, causing countless people to scream in the flames of light and turn to ash.
"Can slay dragons..."
The sword light continued to pour downward, slashing onto the scales of the Golden Dragon.
The Golden Dragon let out a shrill wail and struggled desperately; clouds formed around its body, and countless thunderbolts exploded within the clouds, yet it still could not shake off this seemingly fine but heaven-piercing sword light. Countless dragon scales were stripped away, and every time a dragon scale hit the ground, a ball of inextinguishable heavenly fire ignited on the Wilderness.
Two breaths later, the Golden Dragon fell into the human world.
"Can split the earth."
The sword light finally dimmed, but it still landed on the ground. In an instant, it split the Wilderness ground in two. Tens of thousands of the Xiling Allied Forces were like insignificant grains of sand in a natural disaster, annihilated by this sword, or violently thrown away, smashing in all directions. In the end, the sword light left a massive chasm on the ground, ten zhang deep and stretching for over ten miles.
From the moment the sword light slashed down to its final annihilation, it was only about ten breaths of time.
But to everyone, it felt as if they had lived through a long, long winter night.
This sword—Opening Heaven, Collapsing Mountain, Slaughtering God, Slaying Dragon, Splitting Earth—was infinitely powerful and unimaginable.
……
Deep in the South Sea, the seawater before the black reef rolled incessantly due to the scorching magma, spitting white steam toward the sky, appearing exceptionally restless, just like the mood of the green-robed Daoist at this moment.
He looked toward the north of this flat world, watched that sword fall into the human world, then took the Heavenly Book Heaven Scroll from his bosom and let out a long sigh.
"It is not enough that a Fuzi and a Ke Haoran have appeared in this world; now another Yu Liancheng has come."
Deep in the West Wilderness, the Peak Master of the Scripture Hall remained silent, his heart and mind similarly struck by earth-shattering shock. But hearing the heartbeat coming from the mountain belly that seemed to be vying for the peak, he uttered a Buddha's name, and his mind became tranquil once more.
……
Yu Liancheng looked toward the Divine Kingdom gate that was slowly closing.
After pondering for a moment, an intangible energy shield rose around his body, wrapping him up, and he turned into a bolt of lightning crossing the sky, throwing himself into the Divine Kingdom.
……
On the Wilderness.
The black cloak fluttered in the air as Fuzi rode the wind upward.
The tall and plump Sang Sang rode the wind upward, and countless golden flowers of light drifted out from her body, scattering toward the human world.
The firmament began to tremble, and in some places, it even cracked.
The extremely fine cracks in the sky were already vast and wide for the human world.
The light shone brilliantly, and in the end, the figures of Fuzi and Haotian both vanished into the light.
……
