The Prodigies War
chapter-1318

Everyone knew that Yun Qingbai had never hung his sword by his waist ever since he started cultivating and instead, he always traveled with it on his back.

This was his feelings towards practicing swordsmanship.

The sword is my own dao, so how can I let it be lower than myself?

Countless young swordsmen imitated him carrying the sword on their backs, and it soon became a popular trend in Baiyujing.

He was not the first to carry a sword this way, but he undeniably made it become popular.

At this moment, he opened the sword box on his back and presented the Omega Sword to the world.

This sword originally belonged to the founder of the Omega Sword Sect. It was two feet and three inches long and three fingers wide. The body was dull, simple, and primitive. It was heavy and exuded no sharpness.

It was already a Saint treasure, but ever since Yun Qingbai inherited it, its power had been sealed, cultivating by Yun Qingbai day and night.

The sword was only brought out in the face of formidable enemies, so the world rarely ever saw Yun Qingbai kill with the sword.

But now, it was unsheathed.

Clang!

It roared like thunder, stirring up the nine heavens.

Its appearance sent the world quaking violently as beams of sword intent converged and crisscrossed in the air, spreading further outwards.

Dense sword shadows, dazzling sword rays, surging sword qi, swirling sword dao power…all enveloped the world.

It was like a sword domain!

Commanding all this, Yun Qingbai was like a legendary peerless sword god—the most dazzling sharpness in the world.

Despite the far distance, many experts’ eyes still stung and their skin felt like it was being slashed by swords. Their spirits trembled wildly as if they were facing a great terror!

Even peerless overlord figures such as Imperial Son Shaohao and Fairy Ruowu donned serious and solemn expressions and instinctively circulated their body of qi, as if facing a formidable enemy.

“This is the real Yun Qingbai, an invincible authority of the sword dao!”

The others looked shaken.

The fact that Yun Qingbai opened the sword box and brought out the Omega Sword showed that he was about to reveal his true strength and with his strongest trump card. They knew that even if they fought with their all, they stood no chance against Yun Qingbai.

This was especially true for some of the prodigies and geniuses who also practiced swords. They were stunned into silence, clenching their fists.

“Transform into the sword domain!”

Suddenly, Yun Qingbai launched into attack. With a clang, the Omega Sword spun in the air and sword qi covered the world like a veil. Within it, yin and yang flowed energetically, and sword qi surged endlessly.

“Alright!”

Almost at the same time, Lin Xun’s fist started flying.

A powerful, domineering, and condensed blast of fist strength, like the manifestation of the dao, slammed into the wall of sword shadows, throwing the world into disorder.

In the sky, Lin Xun broke into the sword domain barehanded and started tearing down sword shadows, destroying sword qi and extinguishing sword rays…

It was ridiculously powerful!

But no matter how he charged left or right, he could not break apart the tremendous sword domain!

“Slash!”

Yun Qingbai’s sleeves puffed up while his flowy long hair billowed in the wind. As soon as his voice rang out, thousands of crystal-clear flying swords appeared out of nowhere throughout the sword domain and slashed down with terrifying speed.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Every flying sword was endowed with destructive power and killing intent. Even though Lin Xun had destroyed each one that came his way, he was still impacted and frequently stumbled from the force.

Everyone’s jaw dropped.

Previously, Demon God Lin had reversed the situation of the battle and crushed the world with nothing but a fist. He overpowered Yun Qingbai, wounded him, and left him coughing up blood.

However, Demon God Lin seemed to have completely lost the upper hand now that the Omega Sword had appeared and Yun Qingbai had activated his unique secret sword arts

It was no exaggeration to say that any random attack from Yun Qingbai or Lin Xun could deal a fatal blow to other cultivators in the audience.

They were both exceptionally, outrageously powerful, but undeniably, Yun Qingbai once again demonstrated his overwhelming power in the battle!

“Slash!”

Yun Qingbai flicked his finger with an indifferent expression. The Omega Sword hovering in midair glowed brightly, releasing rays of sword qi that outshone the sun and amplified the power of the sword domain.

This was the power of a peerless sword cultivator!

Many people marveled.

But at that moment, Lin Xun’s voice rang out.

“Destroy.”

It was just one word: casual, calm, and natural.

Then, a blinding streak of sharpness split the sword domain like a hot knife through butter and caused it to shatter to pieces in midair.

Lin Xun rushed out from the rain of light, a broken blade swirling around him with clear cries as pleasant as celestial sounds.

In the distance, Yun Qingbai narrowed his eyes.

“Slash!”

“Slash!”

The two uttered the same word at the same time.

Under aghast gazes, the Omega Sword and the Broken Blade sprang up and crossed in the air, their glinting exteriors a reminder of their unrivaled sharpness.

The former created another sword domain. Sword qi roared across the air like beams of divine light while destructive aura quaked the universe and rocked the stars.

The latter performed the Heavenly Yuan Six Slashes. Its sharp edge wiped out everything it touched as it passed.

Even watching from afar sent a shiver down the spine and filled everyone with an indescribable feeling of suffocation.

This was because the power generated from that clash far exceeded their imagination!

“The Omega Sword is suppressed…”

In the audience, countless people’s expressions changed.

Only then did they realize that, although Yun Qingbai had a trick up his sleeve that he was extremely proud of, so did Demon God Lin.

He might have been training tens of years longer than Lin Xun, but in terms of innate foundation, he was still slightly inferior.

Strength in this world was never measured by the amount of time one had been cultivating!

For example, Lin Xun had only been cultivating for slightly over ten years, but his strength was enough to make countless old monsters of the king stage bow their heads in shame!

It was the same in his duel with Yun Qingbai.

Boom!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun launched into another killing attack.

“Yun Qingbai, even the Omega Sword can’t save you!”

His expression was calm and without a hint of emotion.

How strong was Yun Qingbai?

He did not know.

But he knew that, as early as half a year ago, when he was training on Flying Star Mountain, he no longer feared any of his enemies and he was only waiting for the chance to kill Yun Qingbai!

And today, he needed to put an end to the feud and everything between them.

Yun Qingbai might still have a lot of trump cards up his sleeve, but...that did not matter.

“The Omega Sword is an external object that works for me. I never need to rely on other forces to help me. The same goes for killing you.”

Facing Lin Xun’s killing attack, Yun Qingbai was unfazed.

An extremely frightening aura spread outwards from him.

The hair on his temples visibly turned ash colored bit by bit, and his clear and bright skin lost its sheen.

But his eyes grew increasingly sharper, and his aura stronger.

He was merely standing in the air, but his presence caused the surrounding space to collapse like it was unable to withstand his power!

“He…”

Everyone moved restlessly, and many people’s faces paled.

The sudden change startled Imperial Son Shaohao and other peerless overlords. They knew that this was Yun Qingbai’s true trump card.

Lin Xun frowned, revealing a grave expression.

He felt a sense of danger from Yun Qingbai.

Boom!

Without hesitation, he stretched his body, and it boomed like a drum from the outside to the inside. Every inch of his skin started to glow like glazed jade.

He had activated the Extreme Absolute that had been taught by Ghost King Xuan Kong and thereby raised his combat power to an unprecedented level.

Buzz!

On the opposite side, Yun Qingbai was standing upright. The power of heaven and earth roared towards him as though being drawn.

They accumulated around him as if he held the power to create the universe.

Crack!

Flashes of lightning were followed by rumbles of thunder. The void exploded.

At the same time, steely light beamed from Yun Qingbai’s eyes, and his index finger made a slashing stroke like a sword in the air.

A ray of sword qi that had been building up in him for a long time shot into the sky.

The power of heaven and earth that was gathering around him seemed to have found a target to attach to. They frantically integrated into the sword qi, turning it into the brightest and most eye-catching beam of light in an instant.

The sky overhead shattered and collapsed, turning dim and grim.

Only the beam of sword qi seemed would stand for eternity.

The scene took everyone’s breath away. Is this what a legendary sword immortal is like?

“Break!”

Lin Xun blasted a punch forward.

Instantly, vast, boundless power rushed out from him, illuminating the sky. The power was released to its fullest and transformed into a fist.

Rumble!

The world seemed to be turning upside down in an apocalyptic fashion.

Everyone’s expressions stiffened, and their faces blanched.

The exchange between Yun Qingbai’s sword qi and Lin Xun’s fist power was like the most indescribably breathtaking meeting in all eternity.

Just like the beauty of heaven and earth, it was indescribable.

Boom!

Then, everyone was deafened, their visions blurred, and their spirit sense was blocked; they could no longer spectate the intense battle.

Even Imperial Son Shaohao, Fairy Ruowu and the others had to circulate their own power to dispel the terrifying shockwaves.

Only a peerless battle could quake the world, set off phenomenons, and cause destruction everywhere!

“That kind of power truly deserves to be called supreme!”

Some peerless overlords palpitated. Whether it was Yun Qingbai or Lin Xun, the power they displayed far exceeded that of true peerless overlords.

“There have been many dazzling people throughout time, but the brilliance of the two is enough to amaze everyone in all eternity!”

“It’s a pity that one of them is destined to die in this unprecedented showdown...”

Under various emotions—shock, horror, and disbelief, everyone gradually regained their vision.

In the sky, Lin Xun had retreated over dozens of steps, his long hair disheveled, face ashen, and his clothes torn. A trickle of blood ran down the corner of his lips.

On the other hand, Yun Qingbai’s long hair had turned ashy gray, his body wrinkled, and his skin lost its sheen, but his aura remained as hair-raisingly powerful.

“He withstood that sword!”

“But it looks like Demon God Lin was knocked back as a result.”

Everyone’s eyes went wide.

Yun Qingbai’s sword strike was simply unstoppable and would fill anyone with despair, but he blocked it!

Though Lin Xun had survived the sword strike, it was not easy!

It seemed that the winner remained to be decided even after that thrilling blow!

But the next moment, Lin Xun said calmly, “A sword strike like that must have consumed quite a bit of strength. I wonder how many of those can you pull off.”

“Yun Qingbai, the present you is not as good as I am today!” His voice was filled with superiority.
