Chapter 634: Swordsmanship Showdown!
As this presence washed over them, the crowd exclaimed in shock.
"What a terrifying aura! It feels even stronger than before!"
"This is the true Sword One!"
The Celestial Sword Sect Leader exclaimed in amazement, his eyes filled with envy.
The Emperor and the Heavenly Dao Academy Principal wore worried expressions. I fear Lin Xuan can’t withstand this power, they thought.
A cold smile touched the corner of the Celestial King’s mouth. It looks like this brat will be killed in a single strike.
"Brat, what do you have to fight me with? Disintegrate!" Chu Zhongtian roared. Sword One stabbed fiercely toward Lin Xuan. This time, he intended to kill him for good!
Facing this attack, Lin Xuan didn’t even attempt to dodge. He simply raised his hand and thrust his own sword forward. A ray of Sword Qi shot from his fingertips, slashing ahead. It instantly collided with Sword One.
BOOM!
A deafening roar shook the heavens. Terrifying sword light erupted, engulfing everything. The glare was so brilliant that no one could keep their eyes open.
"Hahahaha, what an idiot!" Chu Yue cackled. "He really tried to counter with swordsmanship! He’s dead for sure!"
"Victory is ours!" the Star Pavilion Master declared, his face flushed with excitement. Behind him, the members of the Star Pavilion erupted in cheers. The rest of the crowd was in an uproar, believing it was all over. Lin Xuan was surely defeated.
But just then, a terrified scream pierced through the radiance of the sword light. "You... you actually blocked it?! This is impossible!"
It was Chu Zhongtian’s voice. Upon hearing his words, Chu Yue’s laughter died in her throat. The Star Pavilion Master’s eyes bulged. The Star Pavilion disciples were frozen in place, their faces masks of horror.
What’s going on? Did Lin Xuan actually block it? No, that’s impossible!
The sword light quickly vanished. Everyone frantically looked toward the battlefield, only to be left dumbstruck.
Lin Xuan had blocked the attack.
"What just happened?"
"He blocked Sword One!"
"That’s incredible!"
"How did he block such a terrifying sword strike?"
The crowd was stunned.
The Celestial King’s expression changed drastically. The Emperor gasped, and the Heavenly Dao Academy Principal grunted in disbelief.
The only thing that can counter Dragon Illumination Swordsmanship... is Dragon Illumination Swordsmanship. Could it be that Lin Xuan really practices it?
"Sword One! It’s Sword One!" the Celestial Vision Sect Leader exclaimed. As a Sword Dao expert, he could naturally tell that the swordsmanship Lin Xuan had just used was identical to Chu Zhongtian’s. It was the first move of Dragon Illumination Swordsmanship: Sword One!
The crowd erupted into an uproar upon hearing this.
"What? Lin Xuan used Sword One, too?"
"He really knows Dragon Illumination Swordsmanship!"
"He wasn’t bluffing!"
"Everything he said was the truth!"
It was madness! Everyone was losing their minds! Chu Yue, the Star Pavilion Master, Master Song, even the Celestial King—they all felt like they were going insane.
Dragon Illumination Swordsmanship... the legendary, top-tier swordsmanship that had been lost for ages! Only a Chosen One could possibly obtain it. Originally, they thought only Chu Zhongtian was a Chosen One, but unexpectedly, Lin Xuan had obtained it as well.
Could it be that Lin Xuan is also a Chosen One? Damn it, how could this brat be so lucky? They were on the verge of mental collapse.
「On the other side of the field,」
The Wangyue Pavilion Master roared with excited laughter. "Hahaha, this is great, truly wonderful!"
The members of the Lin Family breathed a collective sigh of relief. "The Young Master is mighty!"
The Cyan Dragon Manor Master laughed heartily. "I knew it! I knew the young master would create a miracle!"
Ye Qingwu smiled and said, "I told you all long ago that Lin Xuan’s swordsmanship is also top-tier."
Qian Qian also laughed. "Don’t worry. Lin Xuan has slain a Grandmaster before. He will definitely win this battle."
The Heavenly Dao Academy Principal clicked his tongue in amazement. Lin Xuan actually knows Dragon Illumination Swordsmanship. How astounding. This young man has created yet another miracle!
Excitement shone in the eyes of the royal family. The Emperor thought to himself, Whether it’s Lin Xuan or Chu Zhongtian, both are top-tier prodigies. They are the hope of Great Xia! I absolutely cannot allow anything to happen to either of them. Both geniuses must be protected.
The Holy Land’s envoy, who had been observing silently from a distance, allowed the corner of his mouth to lift into a smile. "Now this is interesting."
「On the battlefield,」
Chu Zhongtian was utterly dumbfounded. His mind went blank.
Damn it, what did I just see? Sword One... he used Sword One, too? How could this be! He wasn’t bluffing. He really does know Dragon Illumination Swordsmanship! Damn it all!
He had gone through countless hardships to find the Dragon Illumination Swordsmanship. In his mind, he was the only person in the entire Great Xia Country who knew it. Yet unexpectedly, this brat knew it as well. This was completely beyond his expectations.
Damn it! Could this brat be a Chosen One, just like me?
He couldn’t accept it. He stared fiercely at Lin Xuan, gritting his teeth. "So what if you know Sword One? I know Sword One and Sword Two! I refuse to believe you know Sword Two as well."
"Brat, I’ll admit you have some luck, but I am the true Son of Destiny! I don’t believe your luck can surpass mine! Next, I’ll let you witness the power of Sword Two!"
As he spoke, the Sword Qi erupting from his body grew even more frigid and intense. An even more formidable Sword Dao Power swept across the area. The spectators trembled as they felt this power.
This was the power of Sword Two.
"Hahahaha, that’s great!" Chu Yue laughed through her tears. "Big Brother knows Sword Two! He’s sure to win now!"
The Star Pavilion Master grew excited as well. The power of Sword Two was far greater than Sword One’s. That brat only got his hands on Sword One through some dumb luck. There’s no way he could have also obtained Sword Two. Just watch, his defeat is certain.
Master Song snorted coldly. "Brat, so what if you learned Sword One? In the end, you’ll still lose. The higher you stand, the harder you fall. I’m going to thoroughly enjoy the sight of your miserable defeat."
The Celestial King’s eyes flickered, his heart brimming with murderous intent. This Lin Xuan’s talent is far too terrifying. He cannot be allowed to live. This is my last chance. I must see him defeated with my own eyes, and then I will kill him myself. In his view, Lin Xuan could only have mastered Sword One; knowing Sword Two was impossible. Therefore, his defeat in this battle was guaranteed. The Celestial King had already begun to secretly gather his power, preparing to strike Lin Xuan down.
The Wangyue Pavilion Master’s heart leaped into his throat. This is bad. The faces of the Lin Family members turned pale once more, and the Cyan Dragon Manor Master couldn’t help but clench his fists. They were all worried for Lin Xuan. Could he possibly block the next attack?
The Heavenly Dao Academy Principal and the royals were also filled with curiosity. Can Lin Xuan use Sword Two as well?
Lin Xuan, however, just smiled. "What’s so special about Sword Two? I don’t just know Sword Two, I know all the way to Sword Nine."
Ye Qingwu also smiled. "Everyone, relax. Lin Xuan’s strength definitely surpasses Chu Zhongtian’s. He knows the complete swordsmanship."
However, no one believed them. After all, Dragon Illumination Swordsmanship had been lost for over a thousand years. Finding even a single move was already a heaven-defying feat. How could anyone possibly obtain the complete collection?
To them, Lin Xuan was just boasting again. It was impossible for him to have also mastered Sword Two.
"Brat, go to hell!" Chu Zhongtian lunged forward again. Another sword thrust shot forward.
Sword Two!
A terrifying sword light instantly enveloped Lin Xuan.
