412: Chapter 412 Stepping on Sword Thirteen

"This is... Killing Sword Intent!!"

"Oh no, Sword Thirteen has actually comprehended such a terrifying Sword Intent!"

"An Innate Sword Heart is actually this terrifying!"

Everyone from the Benlei Sect was greatly shocked!

Clearly, the Killing Sword Intent mastered by Sword Thirteen was extremely rare and terrifying, possessing power unfathomable to even ghosts and gods!

"Killing Sword Intent, Innate Sword Heart... He really is excellent raw material for refining a Puppet!"

"What a pity. He is a follower of that fellow's Disciple, so he cannot be easily touched..."

"And then there's that fellow Ji Taichang, who stays by Pei Yuening's side all day and never steps out. It's really hard to make a move on him..."

Among the Cultivators of the Benlei Sect, a strange dark light flashed in the eyes of several individuals as various thoughts surfaced in their minds.

Sword Thirteen raised his iron sword as Killing Sword Intent continuously gathered. An invisible Killing Intent spread out like ripples, causing the temperature of heaven and earth to plummet.

Immediately, over a dozen highly powerful deacons of the Benlei Sect could no longer sit still and prepared to join forces to besiege Sword Thirteen.

"Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters, please step back. It is just a mere Killing Sword Intent, nothing to be feared."

Ji Taichang raised his hand, gesturing to the deacons that there was no need to act.

His eyes glowed faintly as he quietly utilized a portion of the power of the Double-Pupil Immortal Eyes, quickly scanning the Sword Intent on Sword Thirteen.

The Double-Pupil Immortal Eyes could perceive the Origin of all things and deconstruct the mysteries of Sword Intent. Coupled with the astonishing Comprehension Ability brought by Ji Taichang's three integrated Immortal Rank talents, he instantly gained a preliminary mastery of the Killing Sword Intent!

Ji Taichang raised the green wind sword in his hand. As green glow and white light intertwined, wisps of gray Qi began to diffuse.

Sword Thirteen swung his iron sword and rushed before Ji Taichang like a phantom. The hazy gray Sword Qi carried astonishing Killing Intent, and in a daze, a vision of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood even seemed to surround them.

Bang!!

Ji Taichang casually slashed out. Entwined with three-colored Sword Qi, he clashed with Sword Thirteen once more, producing an ear-splitting metallic ring. The violent Sword Qi erupted again, continuously expanding in all directions with the two of them as the center.

The strongest strike that Sword Thirteen had unleashed in his fury was blocked head-on by Ji Taichang!

"This familiar aura... is the Killing Sword Intent!?"

"Senior Brother Ji has actually mastered this kind of Sword Intent as well??"

The pupils of a sharp-eyed deacon expert contracted sharply. Intuiting something, he could not help but cry out in shock!

Even Sword Thirteen's pupils shook violently as he stared intently at Ji Taichang. "Where did you learn the Killing Sword Intent?!"

"Is it that hard?"

Ji Taichang chuckled. "I just saw you use the Killing Sword Intent, and after a casual comprehension, I learned it."

As soon as these words were spoken, they were no different from a heavy hammer smashing into Sword Thirteen's heart, damaging his Dao Heart!

Possessing the Innate Sword Heart, Sword Thirteen had single-mindedly followed Young Master Shen Anlin, spending fifty years of bitter cultivation and comprehension to finally master the Killing Sword Intent.

But if Ji Taichang mastered it with just a single glance, what did his fifty years of bitter cultivation amount to?

What did his Innate Sword Heart, which he took pride in and was praised by the world, amount to?!

"Impossible!"

"Don't you dare try to deceive me!"

Sword Thirteen's face contorted as immortal power surged within him. His cultivation at the second level of the Heavenly Immortal Realm erupted without reservation, and the gray-black Sword Qi bloomed once more. A terrifying aura of slaughter swept in all directions, and in a daze, a vision of gods and demons bleeding flashed by!

Shua!!

Ji Taichang slashed with his sword, striking second but arriving first. The green wind sword was entwined with three different powers as he clashed head-on without any fancy tricks.

Sword Thirteen was once again forced back by Ji Taichang's sword strike, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

Yet he paid no heed, behaving like a mad demon. He swung his iron sword continuously, launching a tempestuous flurry of attacks. The sky was filled with sword light, as he was determined to take down Ji Taichang!

Immortal light flickered in Ji Taichang's eyes, and Sword Thirteen's movements seemed to be slowed down by dozens or even hundreds of times. His sword techniques, and even the circulation path of his immortal power, were precisely observed and analyzed. Ji Taichang could clearly see all his flaws and weak points.

Ji Taichang not only easily blocked every single one of Sword Thirteen's attacks.

He also slashed out dense waves of Sword Qi, precisely hitting Sword Thirteen's weak points!

In just dozens of exchanges.

Over a dozen bloody wounds appeared on Sword Thirteen's body. Moreover, each wound was extremely tricky, perfectly severing the nodes of the Meridians where Sword Thirteen's Cultivation Technique circulated, causing his immortal power to instantly fall into chaos and spiral out of control!

"Puff!!"

Sword Thirteen's body staggered as he spat out a large mouthful of blood. He was sent flying by Ji Taichang's sword strike, and then Ji Taichang stepped heavily onto his chest!

"The so-called Innate Sword Heart, the so-called once-in-a-million-years peerless Genius of the Kaiyang Sword Sect, is that all?"

"With just this meager strength of yours, you dare to come looking for trouble with me?"

"Who gave you the courage?"

Ji Taichang looked down at Sword Thirteen from above, his gaze contemptuous and disdainful.

"You—Puff!!"

Proud and arrogant, Sword Thirteen was utterly defeated and humiliated. His eyes instantly turned red with rage, and he spat out another large mouthful of blood, fainting on the spot.

"S-Sword Thirteen was actually defeated so quickly!!"

"Hahaha... Well fought!"

"Senior Brother Ji is mighty!"

"I didn't expect Senior Brother Ji to hide himself so deeply. To be able to easily defeat Sword Thirteen at the second level of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, just what is his cultivation level?"

"Our Benlei Sect has produced an extraordinary Genius!"

"Junior Brother Ji has the potential of an Immortal Venerable! No... he has the potential of an Immortal Emperor!!"

Many deacons and Disciples of the Benlei Sect could not help but cheer, incredibly inspired and fanatical. They were absolutely thrilled.

Previously, Sword Thirteen had been far too arrogant, daring to charge into the Benlei Sect all by himself. How overbearing that was, leaving everyone extremely infuriated.

Yet in the blink of an eye, he was easily defeated by Ji Taichang and trampled underfoot!

The gaze with which everyone looked at Ji Taichang now carried a hint of worship and fanaticism!

"This bad guy... is actually so strong?!"

"Damn it, at this rate, won't I only be bullied by him in the future, never able to turn things around?"

"Though, that actually seems quite nice..."

Luo Yulian stared blankly at Ji Taichang, all sorts of thoughts surfacing in her mind.

Who knew what she was thinking of, but her face turned slightly red, and she subconsciously pressed her legs together.

[Ding! Luo Yulian's favorability has increased by 1 point]

[Luo Yulian's favorability: 78 (There will be a surprise when favorability reaches 100!)]

"No... San'er!!"

Seeing Sword Thirteen trampled underfoot by Ji Taichang, the Sect Master of the Kaiyang Sword Sect instantly flew into a rage!

"Benlei Sect, you go too far!!"

The powerhouses of the Kaiyang Sword Sect and the Luo Family were also furious, as if their ancestral graves had been desecrated, their eyes turning red.

Sword Thirteen was not just simply the son of the Kaiyang Sword Sect's Sect Master.

He was also a follower of Young Master Shen!

He was the key figure for the Kaiyang Sword Sect and the Luo Family to curry favor with Young Master Shen!

For Sword Thirteen to be severely injured and stepped on by Ji Taichang was, to the Kaiyang Sword Sect and the Luo Family, practically no different from having their ancestral graves desecrated!

Boom—

In an instant, everyone from the Kaiyang Sword Sect and the Luo Family erupted with even greater power, terrifying waves of aura shaking the surroundings!

Originally, they had not gone all out or used lethal force, not wanting to form an irreconcilable blood feud with the Benlei Sect.

Their goal was merely to take Luo Yulian away and eliminate Ji Taichang along the way; there was no need to fight to the death against the entire Benlei Sect.

But now, the situation was different. Sword Thirteen was severely injured and captured, and they had to rescue him no matter what!
