Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws
chapter-1769

According to legends, that era would mark the Nine Kings' return, and each of the Nine Kings would have a King's Mark on them to display their identity!

The rune inside Gu Qingshan's eye was a King's Mark!

"Interesting. I didn't expect to meet one of the Nine Kings here."

Chu Kuangren grinned.

Meanwhile, having activated the King's Mark, Gu Qingshan's aura intensified, and his terrifying sword aura swept across the whole area!

"Now, die!"

Without another word, Gu Qingshan charged and attacked Chu Kuangren again.

He raised his hand and gestured a grab in the void, prompting another random sword to enter his grasp. After that, he dashed toward Chu Kuangren at lightning speed and unleashed a powerful slash at the latter. His chilling sword qi swept out like a hurricane!

Chu Kuangren, on the other hand, remained still and raised his sword!

With a clang, a burst of sword qi released!

Chu Kuangren blocked Gu Qingshan's attack effortlessly. He said, "Come, release your full power and show the Heavens what you can do."

"Hmph!"

Gu Qingshan snorted and brandished the long sword in his hand to unleash a myriad of sword techniques in quick succession.

He already possessed a profound understanding of Sword Dao. Among the younger generation, with the exception of Chu Kuangren, no one else could match him. Even Luo Xue would pale in comparison.

Under the strengthening effects of the King's Mark, his cultivation level immediately increased to the Great Perfected realm.

Every technique and movement he made was filled with supreme might!

When the two swords clashed and various sword techniques intertwined, everyone else was dazzled at that magnificent spectacle of a battle.

"What a powerful sword technique!"

"This is not just a single technique. He's using all of the Spiritual Sword Tribe's sword techniques with perfect mastery! It's like second nature to him!"

Some were astonished by Gu Qingshan's sword techniques and cultivation.

However, as the Sword God King watched the battle from the Divine Sword Peak, he was even more shocked by Chu Kuangren's prowess. "The Heavenly Sword is incredible!"

Everyone also noticed it.

Sure enough, Gu Qingshan's sword techniques were powerful and ever-changing, dazzling those who witnessed him in battle. However, all his attacks were dispelled by Chu Kuangren.

Using only the Void Sword, Chu Kuangren did not unleash any exquisite or flashy sword techniques.

He was merely using the most common forms of stabbing, slashing, thrusting, and hacking. However, he managed to dispel all of Gu Qingshan's various sword techniques using only those basic forms of sword techniques!

"What level is his Sword Dao's cultivation at?" the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader could not help but exclaim.

The Sword God King replied slowly with a few words, "Formless style and void of technique lead to endless styles and infinite techniques!"

Even he was not sure if he could match such a proficient level of Sword Dao cultivation.

Clang! Clang!

Sounds of metal colliding continued to reverberate through the area.

Gu Qingshan had seemingly used up every sword technique in his arsenal. His sword techniques were ever-changing. Some were quick, some were slow, some contained bolts of lightning, some were filled with evil auras…

By then, he had lost count of the swords he had used. Sometimes, he attacked with a broadsword, sometimes with a rapier…

No matter the techniques or swords he used, Chu Kuangren managed to block it effortlessly. Gu Qingshan could not hurt even a single strand of hair on his opponent!

On the contrary, even a casual swing from Chu Kuangren's sword frightened Gu Qingshan!

"You've proven yourself inferior to the Heavens in terms of Sword Dao and cultivation level. What else can you do to win against the Heavens, huh?"

Chu Kuangren twisted his sword, unleashing terrifying bursts of sword intent that forced his opponent back!

Gu Qingshan let out a long roar, and the runes in his eyes lit up brighter than ever.

His eyes were radiating with endless Immortal Sparks!

Then, he roared, releasing a torrent of sword qi into the sky. This time, his sword qi contained a faint blood-colored light!

"Ultimate Heavenly Sword, Bloodfall Heaven's Light!"

Gu Qingshan yelled as he channeled his power to the maximum. He even set alight his life essence, using its power to unleash an unprecedented scale of attack!

Upon seeing that, Chu Kuangren raised and swung his Void Sword.

"Sword of Invincibility!"

With a swing of his sword, the invincible attack illuminated the whole area, covering even the sun with its brilliant light!

Two sword shadows collided in the air.

In the next second, Gu Qingshan fell from the sky like a broken piece of cloth and landed on the ground. He was dripping with blood and covered with sword cuts all over.

He had lost!

Lying on the ground, Gu Qingshan's face was filled with nothing but confusion and disbelief.

Was he not the Heavenly Sword?

Was he not one of the Nine Kings?

Why did he still lose? Moreover, he was defeated in the Sword Dao, which he took pride in the most!

Where did he go wrong?

Tap, tap, tap…

Sounds of footsteps appeared as Chu Kuangren slowly walked toward him.

His emotionless gaze sent chills running down Gu Qingshan's spine.

Gu Qingshan could clearly sense his opponent's killing intent!

The expressions of the Sword God King and others, who were watching from afar, sank.

Just as Chu Kuangren raised his hand, someone cried, "Oh no!"

Although the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader and others wanted to stop Chu Kuangren, they were restrained by an invisible force.

It was the Sword God King!

'What's happening?'

The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader and others were puzzled. Why would the Sword God King stop them from saving Gu Qingshan?

He was the Spiritual Sword Tribe's Prodigy, after all!

Besides, he was a one-of-a-kind Heavenly Sword who could rival even Chu Kuangren. Not to mention, he was also one of the Nine Kings!

Whoosh!

A sword ray flashed past.

Gu Qingshan's field of vision was filled with the sword ray before he eventually lost consciousness.

All everyone else saw was Chu Kuangren swinging the Void Sword. Then, Gu Qingshan's head flew high up into the air before landing on the ground!

Gu Qingshan was dead!

From that day onward, Chu Kuangren would be the only Heavenly Sword in the world!

Watching the scene from afar on the Divine Sword Peak, the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader was struck with grief and sorrow because that was one of the Nine Kings!

He was one of the Nine Kings from the Spiritual Sword Tribe!

Unfortunately, that person was now dead. If he were still alive, he would definitely become the Spiritual Sword Tribe's main pillar of support!

"Why, Sword God King? Why?!"

The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader looked at the Sword God King in confusion. He wanted to save Gu Qingshan earlier, but the Sword God King stopped him.

"He can't be saved."

The Sword God King explained, "Because of this matter, there's a rift between you and the Heavenly Sword. Furthermore, Gu Qingshan was intent on killing the Heavenly Sword earlier, so it's normal for the Heavenly Sword to retaliate in the same manner. If you were to interfere and save Gu Qingshan, you would've burned every bridge possible with the Heavenly Sword. This will only bring misfortune and harm to the Spiritual Sword Tribe!"

He understood everything clearly.

There could only be one Heavenly Sword in the Spiritual Sword Tribe!

Besides, Gu Qingshan was definitely attacking with killing intent earlier. According to Chu Kuangren's character, he would certainly kill Gu Qingshan, and no one could stop him!

Stopping him also meant forcing him to sever all ties with the Spiritual Sword Tribe.

On one side, there was Gu Qingshan, and on the other, there was the Heavenly Sword who was far stronger than him. It would not be hard to choose between the two.

In other words, Chu Kuangren's talents greatly surpassed that of Gu Qingshan!

The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader pondered and soon accepted that fact. However, he was still very saddened by it. "No matter what, that person was one of the Nine Kings!"

"It doesn't matter. Another more powerful candidate of the Nine Kings will be born in the Spiritual Sword Tribe!" the Sword God King said confidently.

He looked at Chu Kuangren's figure and became more excited. "Possessing not only the Heavenly Sword's talents but also the King's Mark, this person's achievements will certainly surpass mine in the future!"

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren also noticed the commotion on the Divine Sword Peak.

"Oh, not stopping me from killing him, huh? You truly are a good schemer, Sword God King."

Chu Kuangren's impression of the Sword God King improved.

'No wonder the Sword God King could maintain the Spiritual Sword Tribe's status as a King Tribe even after the Thousand Sword Calamity. Moreover, he managed to do all that alone too. His insights and skill in grasping the bigger picture of the situation are far beyond the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader's.'

Besides, Chu Kuangren was not only the Heavenly Sword.

He also possessed the Fully Realized Overlord Physique.

If that relationship was utilized well, the Heavenly Sword would become the bond that tied the Conqueror Tribe to the Spiritual Sword Tribe!

Chu Kuangren believed that the Sword God King had taken that into account as well.

Just then, a ray of white light appeared from Gu Qingshan's corpse, and the light contained an extremely mysterious rune.

It was the King's Mark!
