333: Defeated Zhuo Wanmu
The Jade Flute Sword transformed into a hazy phantom, its tip vibrating rapidly as countless hair-thin, nearly transparent sonic Sword Qi billowed out like a spider web!
These sonic Sword Qi moved through the air as if they had a life of their own, emitting a scalp-numbing hiss as they coiled toward Di Qianjie from all directions and incredibly tricky angles!
Every strand of sonic Sword Qi contained the dual power of cutting the Divine Soul and tearing through Protective Aura!
Facing this overwhelming and pervasive sonic sword net, Di Qianjie's eyes remained calm.
The Innate Sword Embryo Dao Body granted him unparalleled perception of the way of the sword!
In his vision, the trajectories of the core power flow and the weakest points of every single sonic Sword Qi within that seemingly chaotic and impenetrable sword net were presented with absolute clarity!
His footsteps shifted with profound mystery, leaving behind elusive afterimages within the narrow space.
The Thousand Tribulations Sword in his hand turned into a swimming Dragon; he didn't perform any complex or flashy sword techniques, using only the basic sword forms—point, thrust, parry, and wipe!
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
The crisp, dense sounds of impact were like heavy rain striking banana leaves!
With every swing of the Thousand Tribulations Sword, he struck with pinpoint accuracy at the key points of the sonic Sword Qi's power flow or their weakest spots!
Wherever the sword edge reached, those sonic Sword Qi capable of tearing through fine gold dissipated and vanished like punctured bubbles!
Di Qianjie's figure wove through the sword net; though it looked perilous, he was actually doing so with ease, like taking a leisurely stroll through a violent storm!
The sword in his hand was fast, accurate, and steady to the extreme. Every strike was perfect, demonstrating the breathtaking Realm of basic sword principles where 'no technique surpasses technique'!
"This... how is this possible?!" Below the stage, the Sword Maniac stared fixedly at Di Qianjie's movements with obsessed, fanatical eyes, murmuring unconsciously.
"Flaws... he saw through all the flaws! The trajectories and weak points of those sonic Sword Qi... how did he do it?!"
"What a terrifying sword Dao Foundation!"
"Returning to simplicity... this boy has practiced basic sword forms to the absolute limit. What's even more frightening is his insight! Zhuo Wanmu's sonic Sword Qi is ever-changing, yet he saw through it completely!"
The more Zhuo Wanmu fought, the more alarmed she became, a chill rising from the bottom of her heart.
Her 'Thousand Silk Wrap' had never been neutralized so effortlessly by anyone before!
It was as if her opponent possessed foreknowledge, always delivering a fatal blow at the subtle moment when her Sword Qi's power was about to be released, or when the old force was spent and the new force had yet to be born!
That feeling of being completely seen through made her feel suffocated!
"You forced me!" A fierce light flashed in Zhuo Wanmu's eyes as she suddenly bit the tip of her tongue and sprayed a mouthful of essence blood onto the Clear Sound Jade Flute Sword!
The Jade Flute Sword instantly erupted with dazzling blood-red light. The musical note light-patterns on the blade twisted frantically as if coming to life, and a terrifying sonic storm that made the Soul tremble was brewing!
"Heavenly Sound Soul-Suppression · Seven String Extinction!"
She gripped the sword with both hands and raised it high above her head. The Jade Flute Sword emitted a sharp shriek that exceeded the limits of human hearing!
Above the entire arena, the invisible sound waves instantly materialized, condensing into seven massive Law strings!
The strings spanned the Void Realm, emitting a terrifying aura that suppressed the Divine Soul and shattered Law!
The surrounding air was instantly sucked away, forming a vacuum zone!
This was her ultimate trump card!
Using essence blood and Divine Soul as a catalyst to drive the power of Law, she condensed seven Heavenly Sound Law Strings. Each string contained a different rhythm of destruction—tearing, dizziness, fear, confusion, delay, annihilation, and Soul-suppression!
When the seven strings vibrated together, it was enough to instantly severely wound or even erase the Divine Soul of an expert in the same Realm!
"Suppress!" Zhuo Wanmu's face was pale, clearly from the massive exhaustion, but her eyes were resolute as she slammed her hands downward!
Buzz—!!!!
The seven giant Law strings snapped and boomed following her downward pressure!
Seven visible, space-distorting torrents of terrifying sound waves, like seven roaring blood-colored Sinister Dragons, carried the Law pressure of world-destruction to completely submerge the area where Di Qianjie was!
Wherever the sound waves passed, countless spiderweb-like cracks appeared silently on the surface of the sturdy arena!
"Not good!" Below the stage, Ye Qingtian's brow furrowed tightly as his Nine Revolutions Sword Body instinctively felt a surge of trepidation.
This Seven String Extinction had already touched upon the power of the Law Realm Middle Stage, and the Divine Soul attack it contained was even more terrifying!
Could Di Qianjie block it?
Yu Qingchen tightened his grip on his left-hand sword, the Destruction Sword Intent roaring within his body, his expression incredibly grave.
Facing this ultimate strike that could make those in the Heaven-Reaching Realm die with regret, Di Qianjie showed no fear; instead, a flicker of burning Battle Intent ignited in his eyes!
"Innate Sword Embryo Dao Body... Open!" he shouted inwardly.
Buzz!
An indescribable, purely refined Innate Sword Intent erupted from within him! It was as if his entire being had transformed into a peerless divine sword that had just emerged from the Chaos womb, a newly formed sword embryo!
The sword Dao runes flowing beneath his skin suddenly lit up, emitting a hazy clear glow.
A supreme aura that stood above all swords, as if it were the very source of the sword Dao, spread out!
Under the shroud of this aura, the seven terrifying sonic torrents—their internal power trajectories, the nodes of their Law construction, and even the core frequencies of the seven destructive rhythms—everything became clearer than ever in Di Qianjie's perception! It was like looking at the lines on his own palm!
"Flaws are everywhere!"
A cold arc curved at the corner of Di Qianjie's mouth.
He moved! Facing the sevenfold sonic torrent that could grind mountains into dust, he advanced instead of retreating!
The Thousand Tribulations Sword in his hand let out an excited long hum, and its sword light surged!
He poured the surging Innate sword yuan and the pure Sword Intent from his Dao Body into the Thousand Tribulations Sword without reservation!
Upon the blade, countless fine and profound Innate sword runes were instantly lit up!
A primal sword might that could sever all Laws and destroy all falsehoods erupted!
"Break for me!"
Di Qianjie gripped the sword with both hands and slashed out fiercely against the seven converging blood-colored sonic torrents!
An incredibly pure and condensed dark-gold Sword Qi struck with absolute precision at the core point where the seven sonic torrents' power intertwined and their Laws resonated—the point that was also the most fragile!
Chila—!!!
The sevenfold Heavenly Sound Law torrent, capable of suppressing those of the same rank, was forcibly split open by this Sword Gang containing the Origin power of the Innate Sword Embryo, as easily as tearing through a thin sheet of paper!
The violent sonic energy was forcibly shredded, letting out a deafening, ear-piercing wail!
The Law strings that formed the torrent snapped inch by inch!
Puff—!
With her life-bound technique forcibly broken, Zhuo Wanmu felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She sprayed out a large mouthful of blood, her face instantly turning as pale as golden paper, and her aura withered at a visible speed.
The Clear Sound Jade Flute Sword in her hand let out a mournful cry, and a tiny crack actually appeared on the blade!
She staggered back, her eyes filled with unbelievable horror and daze.
Defeated? Her strongest Seven String Extinction was actually... completely broken by her opponent's single sword strike!
What kind of power was that?
That sword... the aura that had just erupted from that sword... why did it make her feel a tremor in the depths of her Soul?
Di Qianjie stood with his sword, the soaring Innate Sword Intent around him slowly receding.
The Thousand Tribulations Sword still pointed diagonally at the ground, its light restrained, as if that Law-severing strike just now had been a mere illusion.
Only the crisscrossing deep sword marks on the arena and the distorted space where the shredded sonic energy remained in front of Zhuo Wanmu silently testified to the terror of that strike.
"I win.” Di Qianjie's voice was calm and steady.
Zhuo Wanmu stared fixedly at Di Qianjie, her lips moving, but in the end, she couldn't say a single word.
Clutching her aching chest, she gave Di Qianjie a deep look—a look filled with unwillingness, horror, and an indescribable sense of defeat.
She turned silently and leaped off the arena with somewhat unsteady steps. Her silhouette in the Martial Arts Arena appeared somewhat lonely.
The entire Martial Arts Arena fell into an eerie silence.
One could hear a pin drop.
