Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1016: Chapter 1016: Divine Sword Sect

At this moment, Liu Xiangdong only saw a burst of light exploding from both Ye Luo and the sword in his hand, and then he couldn’t see Ye Luo’s figure anymore, only a brilliant light shooting towards him.

In that instant, he felt that his body was simply unable to dodge; the radiance seemed to appear before him in the blink of an eye. A terrible sense of crisis swept over Liu Xiangdong, making the hair on his body stand on end and his whole body break out in a cold sweat.

Bang!

At the critical moment, Liu Xiangdong swung the medium-grade Spirit Sword in his hand in front of him. The dazzling light and the medium-grade Spirit Sword in his hand collided, unleashing a terrifying energy.

Crack!

The next second, Liu Xiangdong heard a blood-curdling sound. The medium-grade Spirit Sword in his hand actually shattered—yes, shattered—destroyed by the terrifying light.

Splat!

With the medium-grade Spirit Sword shattered, the dazzling light faced no barrier and pierced directly into Liu Xiangdong’s chest, splashing a streak of blood. Liu Xiangdong’s eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.

As the light dissipated, Ye Luo’s figure emerged, with the Lingyun Sword thrust into Liu Xiangdong’s chest.

”So powerful!”

Ye Luo’s eyes shimmered as he murmured to himself. He hadn’t expected the third move of the Lingyun Sword Technique, ’Absolute Heaven Strike,’ to be so formidable. It was many times stronger than before, giving him a feeling as though he and the sword were one.

The sword had managed to instantly kill an expert at the fifth level of the Hua Yuan Realm. The power was truly formidable!

”Master, the Lingyun Sword Technique was created by the former master, so it’s naturally powerful. Previously it was just that the master’s strength was not sufficient to bring out the full might of the Lingyun Sword Technique. Moreover, there are three more moves to the Lingyun Sword Technique, each with even greater power.”

Xiao Ling spoke up.

”Indeed!”

Ye Luo responded tersely, then fiercely pulled out his sword. Liu Xiangdong coughed up a mouthful of blood and knelt on the ground, struggling to lift his head to look at Ye Luo.

”You... dare... to kill me?”

”Why does everyone have to say this before they die? I’ve already killed you, what’s there not to dare? And besides, is it only you who’s allowed to kill me? Ridiculous!”

With a cold snort, Ye Luo kicked out, sending the guy flying and finishing him off for good.

Seeing Liu Xiangdong dead, the complexions of the onlookers drastically changed, their eyes filled with fear as they looked at Ye Luo, with no desire left to continue fighting.

After all, Liu Xiangdong was the strongest among them, and now that he was dead, those of lesser strength were even less likely to be a match for Ye Luo, especially since several had already been injured by Ye Luo’s second move.

”Run!”

The first to speak was an expert of the Divine Sword Sect, one at the third level of the Hua Yuan Realm. Then, they all started to prepare to flee.

As he watched them escaping, a playful smile appeared on Ye Luo’s lips, and his pupils suddenly condensed.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

From within his eyes, streaks of sharp and terrifying golden light shot forth, their piercing power as if it could shatter gold on the spot. Several Divine Sword Sect experts, focused solely on running away, were eliminated by this sudden golden radiance.

As Ye Luo’s strength enhanced, the golden light attack absorbed from the Metal Origin Bead by his eyes grew even more powerful, nearly matching the might of his Ice and Fire Pupil Technique.

In the end, there was only one Hua Yuan Realm third-level expert from the Divine Sword Sect about to escape, but as he was about to flee, countless green vines appeared out of nowhere.

This Hua Yuan Realm third-level expert hadn’t even reacted before the vines entangled his body, binding him tightly.

He was then wrapped up by the vines and brought back to Ye Luo’s side.

Soul Search!

Ye Luo pressed his hand fiercely onto the man’s head and initiated the Soul Search, extracting all the memories from his mind.

Through the Soul Search of this person, Ye Luo gained some understanding of the Divine Sword Sect.

Nowadays, the Divine Sword Sect was indeed in decline, becoming more and more decrepit. Not only were top experts scarce within the sect, but even among the younger generation of disciples, there were hardly any with formidable talent, to the extent that the sect was struggling to maintain even the status of a second-rate sect.

The strongest in the sect was a Spirit Sea Realm sixth-level Supreme Elder, and the sect’s most proficient art of swordsmithing was degenerating generation after generation.

At present, only a single Elder in the Divine Sword Sect had ever forged a superior grade Spiritual Artifact, while the rest could at best produce middle and low grade Spirit Swords. Yet, at the peak of the Divine Sword Sect, they could effortlessly forge even the most exquisite Spirit Swords.

After understanding all this, Ye Luo had no concerns about this sect. Their strongest expert was merely at the Spirit Sea Realm sixth level, and with Yan Dong on his side, he had nothing to fear.

However, Ye Luo was rather interested in this sect, not for anything else, but because they could forge Spirit Swords. If he could take control of this sect for himself, it would be equivalent to owning a weapon-manufacturing establishment.

A martial artist who wants to possess great strength depends not only on their realm and power but also on having a good weapon. Spiritual Artifacts, in particular, greatly enhance a martial artist’s combat abilities.

In a battle between experts of the same level, the one with a Spiritual Artifact could easily kill their opponent. Now that he was starting to build his own power, naturally, he needed to equip his followers with powerful weapons.

The only thing was that he had nobody skilled in Artifact Refining by his side, and the Divine Sword Sect seemed like a very good choice—short on experts but knowledgeable in Artifact Refining.

Considering this, Ye Luo decided to find time to visit the Divine Sword Sect, to take it over and make it his arsenal.

Even though their art of swordsmithing was deteriorating, as long as they could still forge Spirit Swords, that was enough for Ye Luo, who wouldn’t ask for too much.

At this moment, Wu Tianzhuo and Wei Jian, after witnessing the scene before them, displayed a look of stupor in their eyes, taking a long while to come to their senses.

Especially Wei Jian, seeing Ye Luo eradicate all the Hua Yuan Realm experts from the Divine Sword Sect, his face grew incredibly grim.

His visage filled with fear, Wei Jian looked at Ye Luo, swallowing his saliva incessantly. He wanted to flee, but his legs seemed to be leaden, unable to budge.

Whoosh!

Ye Luo’s gaze swept over to Wei Jian, walking straight up to him and said, ”I don’t seem to have any grudge with you, do I? So why try to set me up?”

”I...”

Wei Jian’s lips quivered, but he couldn’t utter a single word.

”But I don’t need to know!”

Ye Luo said coldly, and with a palm strike, Wei Jian’s head burst apart, instantly killing him.

Then, Ye Luo’s gaze swept toward Wu Tianzhuo, who tensed up, but still managed to maintain a calm exterior.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Ye Luo threw several Silver Needles into Wu Tianzhuo’s body, allowing his injuries to quickly heal.
