Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws
chapter-2216

"Leaving already? Why don't you try to take one slash from me?" Chu Kuangren asked indifferently.

Then, a seemingly endless wave of sword qi erupted from his body.

The overwhelming sword qi instantly locked onto Jian Shifang. With such a powerful sword qi right before him, he could not escape now. The attack was unavoidable!

"Oh no. This is…"

Jian Shifang's eyes widened in shock.

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren slowly released a burst of sword qi from his fingertip.

His sword intent soon filled the skies. That technique was…

"Sword Twenty-two!"

A burst of Sword Twenty-two that was ten times more powerful than Jian Shifang's Sword Twenty-two earlier erupted. Endless sword qi gushed toward Jian Shifang from all directions.

Its destructive aura swept across the surroundings.

"Oh no!"

A look of horror appeared in Jian Shifang's eyes.

He channeled his Sword Great Dao power and Ten Ways Sword Intent to the limit, unleashing continuous slashes from his Darkness Sky Slasher.

Strands of sword qi collided with the incoming Sword Twenty-two.

However, his power was still limited.

Before the likes of Chu Kuangren's earth-shattering Sword Twenty-two, his sword qi began to shatter. It was clear that his strength was insufficient to defend against it.

'Am I going to die?'

A sudden thought appeared in Jian Shifang's mind.

Beads of cold sweat started breaking out all over his body as fear overcame him.

His pride and arrogance as a sword cultivator had disappeared at that moment!

What remained was pure horror and fear!

Just as the overwhelming sword qi encroached upon Jian Shifang, marking his pending doom, terrifying sword rays shot out from within his body!

The sword rays enveloped Jian Shifang within, blocking the countless sword qi from all directions.

That sword rays were incredibly powerful.

Even the Sword Twenty-two technique could not get close to Jian Shifang, who was now shielded by the sword rays.

"This is…"

Chu Kuangren's gaze narrowed. He could sense Daoist law energy coming from that sword ray, which meant that the one responsible for it was a Monarch.

Jian Shifang also saw the sword rays. Feeling as if he had escaped death, he burst out laughing. "It's my Honorable Teacher. This is the protective sword ray my Honorable Teacher left inside me. No matter how powerful you are, Chu Kuangren, you'll never be able to destroy a Monarch's sword ray!"

In Myriad Arms City, countless sword cultivators watched as Jian Shifang was enveloped in the sword ray with admiration. After all, a Sword Dao Monarch was a dream that countless swordsmen hoped to become. They could already feel the insurmountable power just from looking at a single sword ray.

"With the protection of a Sword Dao Monarch, there's no way Chu Kuangren can kill Jian Shifang anymore."

"That's right, but Jian Shifang is clearly no match for Chu Kuangren."

"The difference in their strengths is pretty big."

Many sword cultivators were engaged in a discussion.

Even Jian Shifang noticed the difference between his and Chu Kuangren's strengths from that battle. He glared at Chu Kuangren and said, "I may have lost the battle today, Chu Kuangren, but I'll make sure you grovel beneath my feet one day!"

After that, he turned around to leave.

With the protective sword ray of a Sword Dao Monarch, he was not afraid of Chu Kuangren.

"Well, this attack of mine isn't done yet, you know." Chu Kuangren chuckled.

"Stop wasting your efforts, Chu Kuangren. There's no way your Sword Twenty-two can break through this sword ray." Jian Shifang laughed.

"Is that so?"

Chu Kuangren pointed his sword hand sign forward, and the overwhelming sword intent contained in his sword qi suddenly skyrocketed. The Sword Twenty-two technique's power changed drastically too.

Before the attack had ended, it had started to change.

Countless bursts of sword qi rose into the air, forming a silvery-white sword shadow hundreds of meters long in the void. Its terrifying destructive aura caused the surroundings to quake.

"If Sword Twenty-two can't destroy it… what about Sword Twenty-three?"

Chu Kuangren's Sword Twenty-three suddenly erupted.

As the enormous sword shadow carrying devastating destructive intent swung downward, Jian Shifang's face turned pale with horror.

Chu Kuangren's Sword Twenty-three was several times more advanced than his. Chu Kuangren had mastered the true essence of this attack, making it the truly destructive and world-ending Sword Twenty-three!

"How is he so much more proficient in the Holy Spirit Sword Art than me?"

Jian Shifang was puzzled and shocked.

However, the sword qi had hit him.

The clash between Sword Twenty-three and the Sword Dao Monarch's sword ray was akin to a duel between two renowned swordsmen. Clanging sounds echoed in the sky.

Sword intent filled the land, and the swords of every other sword cultivator started trembling.

"What a terrifying sword attack!"

Some of the sword cultivators gulped in shock.

"Buzz!"

As the clash between sword qi and sword ray continued, the void started trembling.

Jian Shifang, who was enveloped in the sword ray, also felt that earth-shaking sword intent. Even he could not help but shudder with fear.

However, whatever happened next horrified him even more.

The protective sword ray around him started cracking!

"No, no, this is impossible!"

Jian Shifang was horrified that the Sword Dao Monarch's sword ray had been broken through!

"Boom!"

Following a loud boom, the sword ray shattered into countless sparks of light, and Chu Kuangren's sword qi landed on Jian Shifang's body. Amidst his screams, Jian Shifang was instantly reduced to a pile of ashes.

The sword qi gradually dispersed, and everything returned to its usual calmness.

Remnants of sword intent lingered in the air. However, even those remnant sword intents were so terrifying that they made countless sword cultivators' scalps numb.

"Sigh…"

Chu Kuangren put down his sword hand sign and sighed softly. He looked lonely. "It's hard to search for worthy opponents for a sword duel. Oh, how lonely it is at the top…"

Countless sword cultivators were shocked to hear him say how lonely it was at the top.

They all looked at Chu Kuangren with the utmost admiration and reverence in their eyes. It was as if they were looking at the peak of Sword Dao!

"It's hard to search for worthy opponents, huh? What a lad he is for achieving that level of Sword Dao! Only the heavens will know how powerful this person's Sword Dao is compared to Jian Shifang."

"No wonder he couldn't be bothered to take Jian Shifang seriously."

"Despite having received multiple attacks, Jian Shifang's sword techniques were nothing but a breeze to him. All Chu Kuangren did was unleash one attack, an attack that started with Sword Twenty-two and ended with Sword Twenty-three, and it killed Jian Shifang. Even the Sword Dao Monarch can't protect him. Chu Kuangren is simply too powerful."

"This person will surely become the new Sword Dao Monarch in the future!"

"How terrifying Chu Kuangren is…"

In the Divine Sword Palace, a chilling sword intent suddenly erupted and filled the palace!

The sword intent even shattered the surrounding planets around the Divine Sword Palace.

Countless sword cultivators' eyes widened in shock.

"It's the Palace Ruler."

"The Palace Ruler is enraged. What happened?"

"Who angered the Palace Ruler?"

Atop the mountain peak, the Divine Sword Palace Ruler looked at Chu Kuangren's image in the mirror with ice-cold eyes.

"Excellent! Excellent, Chu Kuangren!"

"Well said! Those words are well said!"

Although the Divine Sword Palace Ruler was praising Chu Kuangren, the coldness in his eyes only intensified. The sword intent emanating from his body even made the middle-aged sword cultivator beside him tremble.

The Divine Sword Palace Ruler admitted that he had miscalculated.

He originally thought the power he left in Jian Shifang's body was enough to protect him. However, he had severely underestimated Chu Kuangren!

Chu Kuangren's mastery and understanding of Sword Twenty-three were high. Among everyone in the Divine Sword Palace, only the Palace Ruler dared to claim that he was slightly better.

However, Chu Kuangren was still very young. It would not be difficult for someone like Chu Kuangren to surpass him in the future.

"Chu Kuangren, I shall look forward to the moment you become a Sword Dao Monarch. When that time comes, I will certainly… challenge you to a fight!" the Divine Sword Palace Ruler said coldly.

Jian Shifang's death infuriated him, but seeing Chu Kuangren's talent in Sword Dao, he realized he had found a worthy opponent. He looked forward to Chu Kuangren getting stronger.
