Chapter 581 The First Battle of the Blade
The void trembled, and the aftershocks reverberated throughout the land. Everyone who witnessed this scene was stunned.
"This Senior Jiang... is far more powerful than I imagined."
Among the group of injured powerhouses, an old man in white robes, with an air of otherworldly grace, looked at Jiang Hao in the void and muttered to himself.
This was the same Elder Lian who was inside Xiao Yu's body. However, with Xiao Yu's help, he had already rebuilt his physical body and returned. Moreover, he was much stronger than before.
From the very beginning, when the powerful beings from both realms clashed with the demon, he was one of the many powerful figures.
"Incredible... truly incredible... This Senior Jiang's strength has far exceeded my understanding and imagination."
He had lived a very long time, seen countless geniuses and ancient supreme beings, and witnessed countless acts of defying the heavens and killing, but he had never seen such an inconceivable method.
Amidst his emotions, Elder Lian felt both immense relief and a touch of melancholy.
"In my life, I first met Xiao Yu, and then this little guy Xiao Yu met Senior Jiang. I'm really lucky."
He first encountered Xiao Yu, a peerless junior with exceptional talent and pure heart.
Then he even got to meet Jiang Hao, a supreme expert who was unparalleled throughout the ages.
How fortunate, how lucky!
Chen Bei and Xiao Yu stared intently at the figure in the river of time, their eyes filled with shock.
The two had cultivated their own bodies as a path to enlightenment, and they already knew that Jiang Hao was unfathomable. In their hearts, they had already placed him among the strongest beings throughout the ages.
But to their utter surprise, Jiang Hao's strength had exceeded their understanding and imagination.
A single word can define the rules, a single character can shatter the heavens.
With a wave of his hand, nothing is contained; with a single word, the heavens are reached; he alters the order of the world and crushes all the powerful throughout the ages.
"Senior Jiang, this isn't Heavenly Rank...it absolutely isn't!" Chen Bei's voice trembled as he whispered, "Could it be something above Heavenly Rank?"
"Above the Heavenly Rank... this is a truly heaven-defying realm!" Xiao Yu's heart was filled with turmoil.
Horror!
This is truly terrifying!
Above the void, Song Chengbu and the other four clutched their shattered divine bodies, blood oozing from their mouths, their five pairs of eyes fixed on Jiang Hao, filled with horror and shock.
At that moment, they were bewildered. They didn't know how they had been defeated. They rushed forward, and the next moment, they coughed up blood and flew backward.
All of this was too bizarre, beyond their comprehension.
They relied on their ancient reputation and heavenly cultivation, their arrogance spanning countless ages.
In the blink of an eye, his lifelong pride was completely crushed.
Without raising a hand or making a move, the opponent crushed and severely injured the five Heavenly Realm experts working together with just one word.
The gap is as vast as the ocean, insurmountable.
They had dominated the ancient times and had never suffered such a complete defeat.
The King of Chu and the demon stood in the void, their bodies stiffening slightly, their expressions changing drastically.
The two were initially shocked, but then their eyes blazed with intense heat and ecstasy.
King Bawang of Chu exclaimed in delight, "He's at the Heaven-Defying level! He's above the Heavenly Rank, at the Heaven-Defying level!"
The demon nodded, equally shocked and excited: "Yes, only those at the heaven-defying level can achieve this."
Both of them were extremely excited, and Jiang Hao's impressive performance only made them more thrilled.
They traversed countless ages in the ancient times, trapped at the peak of the Heavenly Realm for endless time, exhausting all methods, yet still unable to break through to a higher realm.
Their lifelong obsession was to break through the Heavenly Rank and reach the Heaven-Defying Level.
At this moment, they witnessed it with their own eyes!
His words became law, and with a single thought, he subdued the five celestial beings.
Only those who transcend the limitations of the Heavenly Rank and become heaven-defying powerhouses can possess such supreme divine might!
An incredible, living being!
The supreme realm they had been searching for and dreaming of was now vividly appearing before their eyes!
Xiang Yu, the King of Chu, gripped his halberd tightly, his fighting spirit rising.
"No wonder the Dharma Master said they came to save us, now I understand."
"But why don't we remember someone so powerful?"
Amidst their ecstasy, both King Xiangyu and King Bawang were filled with deep doubt and confusion.
A heaven-defying powerhouse, traversing countless ages and shaking the six realms, should rightfully be renowned throughout the heavens and recorded in the annals of history.
As the peak overlords of the Primordial Heaven Rank, having experienced countless secrets and being familiar with the strongest throughout history, why had they never heard of Jiang Hao, this supreme figure?
With such strength, they are among the best throughout history and could never have remained unknown!
Confusion lingered in their minds, but it did nothing to quell the boiling fighting spirit within them.
Jiang Hao stood with his hands behind his back in the river of time and space, his gaze sweeping indifferently over the five paralyzed kings, his voice calm yet majestic, resounding throughout the heavens and earth.
"I have already said that the five of you are shallow in cultivation and limited in vision. You have the cultivation of the Heavenly Rank, but you lack the Dao Heart of the Peak. You are no match for us."
As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze shifted, landing on the solemn-looking Chu Bawang and the battle-ready Mo Qi.
"Now, do you two still dare to make a move?"
King Xiang Yu took a deep breath, suppressing all the shock and doubt in his heart, and his domineering blood surged up.
The majestic aura of an eternal overlord is fully displayed!
His body stood tall and straight like a mountain, the Overlord Divine Halberd in his hand trembled slightly, and there was no fear in his eyes, only a strong fighting spirit and sincere respect.
"A supreme being of heaven-defying caliber has descended upon the world; such a battle is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us all. To be able to fight you is the greatest honor for me, Chu Xiangyu, and for all seven ancient kings!"
Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King of Chu, always held the strong in high esteem.
A golden light erupted from his body, domineering and fierce, with an aura that could swallow mountains and rivers.
The halberd trembled, its blade swirling with a Daoist aura that seemed to turn heaven and earth upside down.
His aura was rising, and with each step he took, the void trembled.
Mo Qi also stepped out. At this moment, all the coldness and death in his dark eyes had completely disappeared, replaced by an almost fanatical excitement and fighting spirit.
"I can sense that although you haven't used a sword, you are definitely a master of swordsmanship."
"Today, I, the Demon, will not concern myself with realms or victory or defeat."
"I hereby ask the Supreme One for guidance on the sword, and humbly request that the Supreme One grant my lifelong obsession with the path of the sword!"
As he spoke, the aura of the sword on Mo Qi's body began to rise, and dark demonic energy surged from his body, wrapping around the blade.
The Despair Blade emitted a deep rumble, a sound like an ancient sigh, a roar from the abyss.
The power of his sword grew stronger and stronger, and the intent of his sword became more and more intense.
The air in the entire world became heavy, as if an invisible celestial blade was hanging over everyone's head.
Mo Qi looked at Jiang Hao, his eyes filled with longing.
He was a warrior throughout his life, a swordsman throughout his life, half of his life trapped in despair, and the other half seeking defeat in the heavens.
As a devout master of the sword, he keenly sensed that although Jiang Hao did not display overwhelming sword aura, he was definitely a master of the sword.
He could feel that supreme sword intent; it far surpassed the pinnacle of his swordsmanship and was the perfect opponent he had always dreamed of!
Jiang Hao quietly watched Mo Qi, whose fighting spirit was soaring, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes.
He cultivated all techniques and mastered all the great Daos; his Heavenly Emperor Fist was unparalleled in the world.
However, Jiang Hao's favorite weapon is indeed the sword, which is why his Emperor Weapon is the Heavenly Sword. Although Jiang Hao usually uses the Heavenly Emperor Fist more often in battles after he attains enlightenment, his love for the sword has never diminished.
Over the years, Jiang Hao has seen countless prodigies and experts in the art of the sword, but a sword expert like Mo Qi, who nurtures his sword with despair and proves his path through life and death, is truly rare.
This demon is devout in the way of the sword and has exceptional talent; he is a very good genius in the way of the sword.
As a fellow expert in the art of the sword, Jiang Hao was quite pleased to encounter such a talent, and nodded slightly.
"As you wish, since you seek a duel with your sword, I will grant your request. I hope you can show me the pinnacle of your swordsmanship."
"I will not let you down!" Mo Qi replied in a deep voice.
The next instant, Mo Qi and Chu Bawang, two peak ancient experts, attacked simultaneously.
