359: Xu Fu, who has been hiding for a long time!

Facing Wind’s desperate, exquisitely crafted saber techniques, he found himself somewhat flustered, and his ghost-like Purple Lightning movement technique also seemed to become a bit sluggish.

He could only rely on his profound Internal Energy to barely sustain himself, constantly getting new wounds from the sharp Saber Qi, bleeding profusely and looking utterly disheveled.

"Sword Eight!"

On the other side, Bu Jingyun vented all his fury through the peerless good sword!

The dark sword body erupted with an unprecedented deathly glow. He no longer defended, merging with his sword, transforming into a meteor tearing through the sky, carrying an indomitable Aura, striking directly at Raging Thunder!

Raging Thunder was inwardly lamenting, as he also had to use his Divided Soul to guard against the unfathomable Nameless, making it difficult to fully exert his strength.

Bu Jingyun’s angry strike was far more powerful than before; the icy Sword Intent almost froze his Soul!

He roared, punching back, and the thunderous True Qi clashed violently with the dark sword Aura once more!

"Boom!"

This time, Raging Thunder was shaken back repeatedly, old wounds on his knuckles cracking open, blood gushing out.

"Sword Twenty-Two!"

Bu Jingyun, having gained the upper hand, pressed on relentlessly. His swordplay was like a torrential storm, binding him tightly, his cold eyes seemingly saying: "Today, I will surely cut you down here!"

Nameless stood quietly at the bow, his gaze calmly observing the two battlefields.

He did not make another Move, nor did he even emit any Aura.

But it was precisely this ultimate "stillness," in stark contrast to the world-destroying "motion" from earlier, that exerted even greater psychological pressure on Purple Lightning and Raging Thunder!

Every time they made a Move, they felt as if an invisible pair of eyes was watching for flaws in their Moves;

Every time they circulated True Qi, they worried that it would trigger the "Sea Sword" suspended above their heads to descend again!

This fear of having their lives in someone else's hands greatly interfered with their performance; at most, they could only exert sixty to seventy percent of their full strength.

"Pfft!"

Wind seized a moment of Purple Lightning's distraction, exposing a weakness. The snow drinker mad blade cut in at an extremely tricky angle, a flash of saber light, and blood splattered!

Purple Lightning screamed, his right arm severed at the shoulder!

"Ah! My hand!"

Purple Lightning felt excruciating pain, and his combat power instantly plummeted.

Wind's eyes were cold, his saber momentum relentless, aiming directly for his head!

"No!"

Purple Lightning was terrified, desperately channeling his remaining Purple Lightning True Qi to protect himself, while simultaneously retreating rapidly.

However, Wind's saber momentum was like a maggot in the bone; the snow drinker mad blade, carrying a bone-chilling cold, had already reached his throat!

"Pfft—!"

The saber edge swept past, and a head flew into the sky. Purple Lightning's face was frozen in terror and unwillingness, and his headless body swayed before falling to the ground.

On the other side, Bu Jingyun's battle with Raging Thunder was also nearing its end.

"Sword Twenty-Two!"

Bu Jingyun's eyes were filled with desolation, and a terrifying Sword Intent emanated from his body. The peerless good sword transformed into streaks of dark flowing light, a sky full of sword light, instantly slashing towards Raging Thunder!

Raging Thunder's pupils contracted sharply; he wanted to dodge but no longer wanted to! Even if he defeated Bu Jingyun, it was a dead end.

The martial arts myth, Nameless, was too terrifying!

"You... didn't... win against me..."

"Ch!"

With a soft sound, Raging Thunder's body was pierced by dozens of Sword Qi. The light in his eyes instantly dimmed, and his massive body crashed to the ground, completely devoid of life.

Wind and Bu Jingyun, under Nameless's supervision, finally slew the formidable enemy!

"Hehe... hehehehe..."

A low, hoarse laugh, without any warning, echoed between heaven and earth.

The laughter was not loud, yet it instantly drowned out the sound of the waves, the Wind, and even everyone's heartbeats, clearly reaching every person's ears, carrying an eerie and majestic chill that made one's hair stand on end.

The already lead-gray clouds in the sky visibly deepened, as if about to drip ink.

The temperature plummeted, and fine ice crystals began to form on the sea surface; a bone-chilling cold permeated everywhere.

Nameless's always calm eyes, for the first time, showed intense fluctuation. He suddenly looked up at the sky.

He saw that, at some unknown point, a figure had appeared in the sky.

He just stood there casually, yet he seemed to be the center of the entire world.

"Senior Xu Fu?" Nameless had an ominous premonition.

"You want to kill me? But I am your grandson!"

"Many generations have passed!"

"Nameless..." Xu Fu's gaze fell on Nameless: "You are too terrifying! I also know Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin. It took me thirty years to reach your level!

"And you, only took one month!"

"While you were near Gang Leader Lu, I couldn't make a Move against you, so I could only use information about these Eastern Islanders to lure you to this East Sea."

"So, you want to kill Senior Nameless?" Bu Jingyun pointed his sword at Xu Fu: "Are you afraid he will surpass you?"

Xu Fu completely ignored Bu Jingyun, merely looking down at Nameless: "Make your Move! Perhaps you only have one chance!"

Nameless took a deep breath. He knew Xu Fu spoke the truth; facing this old monster who had lived for a thousand years, he might indeed only have one strike's worth of power.

But, he, Nameless, the martial arts myth, had never feared battle!

"If that's the case..." Nameless slowly raised his right hand, pointing his fingers like a sword: "Then... please, Senior, test my sword!"

Before his words finished, his figure was already like a streak of sword light cutting through the sky, actively rushing towards Xu Fu in the high sky!

There was no grand momentum of seawater transforming into a sword, no spectacular sight of ten thousand swords flying together.

He pointed his fingers like a sword, no longer drawing upon external objects, but instead condensing all his spirit, will, and Sword Qi into his fingertip!

A point of ultimate faint light illuminated on his fingertip; it was not the azure blue of seawater, but a bright silver color that seemed capable of piercing the Void Realm and separating the clear from the turbid!

That was the ultimate manifestation of his Heaven Sword Realm, the most fundamental sword after the Fusion of the Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin sword theory and his own Sword Dao!

Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin—Heaven Sword · Profound Truth!

This was Nameless condensing his life's learning, utilizing the Heaven Sword Realm to unleash the Profound Truth of Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin, an ultimate strike that transcended the scope of Moves!

Under this sword, there was only him and his sword; his will was the blade!

"Good timing!"

"Emperor Heaven Raging Thunder!"

Xu Fu pushed his hands forward, not with extreme cold power, but with the ultimate Yang and ultimate Yin thunder condensed from his thousand years of cultivation!

A terrifying pillar of thunder, black as ink yet entwined with countless ice crystal electric snakes, roared as it met that streak of sword light!

"Ch!"

The sword light and the thunder pillar collided violently!

Nameless's "Heaven Sword · Profound Truth," which condensed his life's Sword Dao cultivation, was incomparably sharp, actually slicing open the dark thunder pillar containing a thousand years of cultivation! The bright silver sword light advanced like a broken bamboo, pointing directly at Xu Fu's true body!

"Hmm?" Xu Fu's eyes beneath his mask finally revealed a hint of genuine surprise.

He hadn't expected Nameless to be able to unleash such a pure, such an ultimate sword!

The sharpness of this sword was such that it could forcibly tear apart even his Emperor Heaven Raging Thunder!

However, the thousand-year gap in cultivation was, after all, an insurmountable chasm!

The severed dark thunder pillar did not dissipate; the ultimate Yin and ultimate cold thunder power contained within it, like venomous pythons with life, madly entwined and corroded upwards along the torn gap in the sword Aura!

"Crack... crack..."

Nameless's indestructible Chaos sword Aura was actually frozen and shattered layer by layer by this Yin-cold thunder!

The speed of the sword Aura's advance visibly slowed down, and the unparalleled Sword Intent attached to it was also rapidly being eroded!

"Pfft—!"

Nameless's body trembled violently, and he spat out another large mouthful of blood, which froze in mid-air before it could reach the ground.

His True Qi instantly dispersed, his Internal Energy was insufficient, his cultivation not enough, and that ultimate sword could no longer be maintained. The sword light, less than three zhang from Xu Fu, abruptly shattered, turning into countless ice crystals and dissipating!
