Chapter 97: The Destruction of Tang Li! The Final Victory

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Tang Li’s face was shocked as he saw how Yang Dingtian was still fine.

“How is that possible? He had inserted all of his Xuan energy into that strike just now, and I had directly cut along the Sea of Energy at Yang Dingtian’s belly. How could he still be fine?”

For a martial artist, the most important part of the body wasn’t their chest or their throat but their belly. That was because that was where the Sea of Energy lay. As soon as it suffers an attack by powerful Xuan energy, the Sea of Energy would be immediately destroyed, breaking all the Xuan veins in the body. At that time, even if one was not dead, one would definitely be more suffering than death.

Tang Li had placed all his energy in that sword, and Yang Dingtian’s Sea of Energy should have been destroyed. How was he still fine?

Of course, Yang Dingtian was alright because he was wearing the Deep Sea Xuan Shirt. The most remarkable part of the shirt was that it could not be penetrated by anything and was also able to withstand great Xuan Energy attacks. Although Tang Li’s cut on Yang Dingtian’s belly was violent, most of the Xuan energy was absorbed by the Deep Sea Xuan Shirt, and only a little entered Yang Dingtian’s body. Just a little!

…

Seeing Yang Dingtian’s strange sword piercing towards his body like a poisonous snake, Tang Li was scared until he almost lost his soul.

At such a close distance while he was defenseless, Yang Dingtian’s sharp and mysterious sword pierced forward.

Recoiling in horror, Tang Li used his sword to block Yang Dingtian’s sword as quickly as possible.

Yang Dingtian bounced up and flipped over Tang Li like a beast.

Horrified, Tang Li couldn’t help but retreat.

The sword in Yang Dingtian’s hand stabbed over like a storm.

Xuwu Nine Disasters Sword: Being.

Xuwu Nine Disasters Sword: Boundless.

Instantly, Tang Li’s entire body was trapped in Yang Dingtian’s sword light.

Initially, he kept blocking, but the difference in sword art level was huge. So, he kept retreating, retreating, retreating quickly, and nearly escaped.

In the eyes of the audience, there was a turnaround in the situation. Tang Li, who was winning at first, was now being cornered by Yang Dingtian.

The injury on his chest was bad. A few of his bones were broken, and as he retreated at high speed, blood spurted out. Large amounts of his Xuan energy leaked away.

If this continued, his speed would slow down in no time, and Yang Dingtian would be able to stab his chest and kill him.

But at this moment, Tang Boshao suddenly shouted out strictly, “Tang Li, why are you running? Your Xuan energy is still way stronger than his. Why are you running?”

Tang Li’s body trembled instantly. Yes, why was he running away? Even though he’s injured, his Xuan energy was still much stronger than Yang Dingtian’s. Knowing that his opponent’s sword art was incredible, why should he compete with him in that?

The reason Tang Li was acting like this was because he was really scared by Yang Dingtian. The wound on his chest was frightening as well. Thus, he had suddenly lost his rationality in response.

After he was yelled at by his father, he instantly came to his senses.

He gathered all of his Xuan energy and bounced. Instantly, his body shot back dozens of meters like from a slingshot, escaping Yang Dingtian’s scary sharp sword.

Yang Dingtian had lost the chance to kill him.

However, Yang Dingtian did not chase but stared at the wound on his chest. Then, he stood still coldly!

….

Tang Li, who had retreated dozens of steps, was holding the bloody sword in his hands and looked down at the wound on his chest.

He took out a pill and swallowed it. The blood around the wound instantly hardened.

He knew that he needed to quickly end this battle!

“Yang Dingtian, I will not give you any more time, and I will not give you any more chances. Three cuts determine life or death!”

Tang Li said, “Your trick had really messed up my mind just now! Now, we’ll use Xuan energy to speak, and you’ll definitely be dead!”

After he finished talking, Tang Li rushed towards Yang Dingtian and slammed his sword down.

He did so using the greatest amount of Xuan energy, the greatest amount of strength!

Yang Dingtian raised his gigantic Millennium Owl Sword to block!

“Dang….” A loud sound boomed, and Tang Li’s bloody sword slammed against Yang Dingtian’s sword.

Yang Dingtian’s body trembled, and the slates under his foot cracked. Blood spurted out of his mouth.

Tang Li’s full power slam was really powerful and caused Yang Dingtian internal injury.

“The second sword!”

A loud yell and Tang Li’s violent sword slammed down once again!

Yang Dingtian’s gigantic sword managed to withstand the sword again.

“Bang…”

A loud sound!

Yang Dingtian’s body went low. Both of his sleeves were torn, and wounds peppered both his arms, from which blood flowed out.

Blood spurted out from his mouth like an arrow, from his nose and even from his ears.

After putting up such a fierce resistance, it was as if Yang Dingtian had reached his limit!

It seemed like Yang Dingtian would fall with a little more force.

It seemed like Yang Dingtian wouldn’t be able to withstand the final sword!

Everyone watching was worried for Yang Dingtian, and all of their faces turned pale with shock.

Yanyan drew her sharp sword and was about to rush out to the battleground.

“Don’t go…”Ningning held onto Yanyan and said, “Don’t worry, when he slams his sword for the third time, Tang Li will die!”

“How is that possible? It is Yang Dingtian who is about to be killed!” Yanyan said.

“Trust me,” Ningning said gently.

…

At the moment, seeing how Yang Dingtian was covered in blood, especially his entire face, and had serious injuries, Tang Li laughed violently.

“After the final sword, Yang Dingtian, you will be dead.”

Instantly, Tang Li’s body bounced up and inserted all of his Xuan energy into the bloody sword.

His bloody sword was filled with fresh blood.

This was Tang Li’s final sword strike, and he used all of his Xuan energy. It was going to be a deadly strike at Yang Dingtian.

“Die…..,” Tang Li shouted like thunder.

Then, his bloody sword sliced towards the top of Yang Dingtian’s head with extreme killing intent!

Not knowing why, Tang Li’s expression suddenly changed, and his gaze turned strange.

Many couldn’t bear to watch Yang Dingtian be sliced in two and shut their eyes.

Yang Dingtian raised his Gigantic Millennium Owl Sword and said seriously, “This… is also the last attack for me to kill you!”

“Die!” Yang Dingtian shouted.

He held the Gigantic Millennium Owl Sword with both of his hands, welcoming Tang Li’s bloody sword.

“Dang….” A loud noise and both swords clashed.

There were blinding fire sparks that flew out.

Tang Li’s bloody sword broke and was knocked away.

After Yang Dingtian’s Gigantic Millennium Owl Sword broke the bloody sword, it immediately sliced through Tang Li’s neck.

Tang Li’s head was about to fly into the air just like Gan Lang’s.

However, Yang Dingtian did not do so but placed his Gigantic Millennium Owl Sword on Tang Li’s neck. He did not chop off his head.

“I won’t kill you. It’s better to let you become a cripple,” Yang Dingtian said coldly.

“Bang!” Then, he struck Tang Li’s temple with the sword hilt, knocking him sprawling to the floor.

Then, Yang Dingtian stepped forward, aimed at Tang Li’s belly, and stabbed his sword in.

“Boom…” It sounded like a balloon popping.

Tang Li’s Sea of Energy was destroyed by Yang Dingtian!

Tang Li did not die. Yang Dingtian did not kill him. But, he became a cripple, an absolute cripple!

…

Instantly, there was absolute silence in the square!

Everyone stared at the final scene on the battleground!

What happened? How could this be? The final sword attack. Shouldn’t Yang Dingtian be dead instead? How did it end up being Tang Li who was crushed?

Tang Li’s bloody sword was such a famous treasure. How could it break?

As for Tang Boshao, he stood still as if he’d been struck by lightning.

Even Elder Yang Yan could not react!

…..

Yang Dingtian slowly turned around and bowed towards the higher stage. “The third match has ended, Elder Yang Yan. May I stay in Cloud Sky City and may I participate in the Grand Martial Competition for the position of City Lord next year?”

After hearing Yang Dingtian, everyone suddenly awoke.

Then, it was like a bomb had gone off in the square.

Countless people were incredibly surprised, and thousands were shouting about what just happened.

How did this happen?

The reason was pretty simple. The moment Yang Dingtian’s Gigantic Millennium Owl Sword stabbed into Tang Li’s body, it determined his death!

That was because there was poison on the blade, Deep Sea Xuan Poison. Although it was a very small amount, it was still extremely deadly!

A huge part of the Gigantic Millennium Owl Sword was made of the Millennium Owl’s claw, but when the Millennium Owl died, it was poisoned with the Deep Sea Xuan Poison. Although it had burned its Xuan energy to remove the poison, there was still some of it left in every inch of its body. Of course there would be some left on the Gigantic Millennium Owl Sword, even if it was only a little.

When Yang Dingtian sliced Tang Li’s chest, one-hundred-millionths of the original Deep Sea Xuan Poison entered Tang Li’s blood, flowing into his Xuan veins and Sea of Energy.

Even if it was just that small amount, as soon as it penetrated into the blood, there would be a chain effect. It would madly swallow the Xuan energy, mental acuity, blood, and everything that it touched!

If Tang Li noticed and used his Xuan energy to suppress it, then he might have been fine. But he didn’t as he was obsessed with fighting Yang Dingtian. In particular, he used all of his energy in those last three attacks to kill Yang Dingtian. His Xuan energy was drained and dissipated quickly, speeding up his death.

Finally, the weak Deep Sea Xuan Poison had reached the most important part of his Xuan veins, and at that moment, it had blocked his Xuan veins and cut off his supply of Xuan Energy. This was the reason his expression grew strange and his gaze emitted green light.

Thus, Yang Dingtian took that opportunity to break the energy-less bloody sword and turned Tang Li into a cripple with one strike.

Yang Dingtian won, but he wasn’t really happy! But, to be able to obtain victory was a good thing.

Now, he was waiting to see if the Elder would come out with any other tricks.

So, Yang Dingtian shouted out loud at Yang Yan, putting him on the spot.

….

Yang Yan looked at Yang Dingtian in confusion, his gaze wandering.

At the moment, thousands of Cloud Sky City disciples stood up and stared at Yang Yan, pressuring him silently.

They were afraid that the Elder would come out with something shameless again, so they gave Yang Dingtian their silent support.

If the Elder were to play any other tricks, the thousands of disciples in the field would rebel.

Yang Yan took a deep breath and said, “I announce that Yang Dingtian has obtained the victory in the Elimination battle and is officially a disciple of Cloud Sky City. He is qualified to participate in the Grand Martial Competition for the position of City Lord next year!”

After he finished talking, thunder-like noise erupted instantly!

“Long live…. Long live…..”

“Long live Yang Dingtian!”

All of the Cloud Sky City disciples cheered!

Yang Dingtian had left an incredibly fiery mark on the hearts of thousands of people today!

In a short five days, he broke through from an enlightener to a Nine-star Xuan Martial Artist.

Setting aside Sun Hao and Gan Lang who had lost in succession, even the last Four-star Xuan Martial Warrior was beaten until he was crippled!

They had never heard of such a miracle, but Yang Dingtian did it right in front of them.

How can such a person not be the future Cloud Sky City Lord?

Yang Dingtian turned around and looked at Yanyan. He wiped off the blood on his face and smiled!

Yanyan ignored everyone’s gazes and jumped down from the higher stage, running towards Yang Dingtian like a tiny little bird.

“Husband, your wife was wrong! Let’s make love tonight!”
