Chapter 159: Chapter 120 True Martial Sword Stele: Using the Wisdom of All Beings as Fuel (Two-in-One)_3

Luofu Sword Venerate’s face was somewhat unsightly: ”Who on earth ranked this Celestial Being List? Are you telling me this is the strength of the thirty-sixth on the Celestial Being List?!”

He felt that if Thunder Shock Blade Venerate was replaced with himself, he might also lose. The sword intent just now made his heart pound with fear. This True Man Tianjian seemed like a madman who was purely obsessed with the sword, with an incomprehensibly pure sword intent.

He recalled his actions a few days ago on True Martial Mountain, his mouth twitched, feeling inexplicably like a clown, and a trace of regret rose in his heart.

Such thoughts were not uncommon among people like Luofu Sword Venerate, especially those Celestial Human Realm experts, all of whom felt the same.

Thunder Shock Blade Venerate felt the weakness in his body, especially his empty left arm, and his heart was extremely bitter, but he harbored no hatred, instead, he felt grateful.

He took a deep breath and said bitterly: ”Thunder Lei thanks Taoist Brother for showing mercy.”

That sword just now.

Could have easily killed him, but in the end, it only cut off one of his arms and then dispersed, he naturally understood that the other party didn’t want to strike a fatal blow.

Ning Qi’s face was calm.

In front of everyone, it was indeed inappropriate to kill, after all, Thunder Shock Blade Venerate, in some sense, came representing all the blademan in the world, if he was killed, some people might take the opportunity to make trouble. Ning Qi feared very few, but among the blademan, there was a Blade Demon with a cunning manner, the third rank on the Celestial Being List, which made Ning Qi a bit apprehensive, so he chose to show restraint.

Of course.

If Thunder Shock Blade Venerate were unwise, he wouldn’t mind finding time to resolve it later.

At present, it seems that this Blade Venerate still had some sense of clarity.

Taoist Brother Tianjian’s gaze remained as indifferent as ever.

Thunder Shock Blade Venerate trembled slightly, the bitterness in the corner of his mouth growing stronger.

He looked reluctantly at the Heavenly Thunder Blade in his hand, he had challenged because of this unparalleled treasure blade, but now, before it even warmed in his hand, he had to give it to someone else.

He had come voluntarily to challenge, and now that he had been defeated and spared, he naturally couldn’t avoid offering some compensation.

Thunder Shock Blade Venerate made up his mind, his voice echoing across the sky: ”I came to challenge, but my skills were inferior. I offer this blade to thank Taoist Brother for sparing me!”

Everyone was astonished.

Just saw the Heavenly Thunder Blade in Thunder Shock Blade Venerate’s hand rise into the air, in the blink of an eye it hovered before Taoist Brother Tianjian, slightly humming, with thunder hidden on the blade as if it were emanating a submissive intent.

A glimmer of surprise flashed in Ning Qi’s eyes.

When Thunder Shock Blade Venerate made his move just now, Ning Qi had observed carefully, this Heavenly Thunder Blade was indeed a peerless treasure blade, with special material seemingly able to channel thunderous power, if studied carefully, it would surely yield fruitful results, just like the previous Cyan Profound Treasure Armor.

He did not stand on ceremony.

If he didn’t demand some price, wouldn’t that mean any Tom, Dick, or Harry could challenge him in the future?

With a thought, Taoist Brother Tianjian waved his sleeve, with sword intent brushing over the Heavenly Thunder Blade, letting it rest by his side.

Seeing the treasure blade in someone else’s hands, Thunder Shock Blade Venerate felt even more conflicted, like handing his wife to another with his own hands, but since Taoist Brother Tianjian accepted the Heavenly Thunder Blade, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Yet looking at Taoist Brother Tianjian’s eyes devoid of any emotion, he couldn’t help but feel a chill, thinking for a moment before speaking again: ”Taoist Brother Tianjian, upon returning to the manor, I will have someone send my Thunder Shock Secret Record as an apology.”

Everyone looked complicated in expression.

Knowing that Thunder Shock Blade Venerate was evidently frightened into submission, wanting to calm the storm and extinguish Taoist Brother Tianjian’s anger with this gesture, for in that battle just now, perhaps only Thunder Shock Blade Venerate himself could truly perceive the terror of those nine Celestial Swords.

It was normal to compensate with treasures after being defeated in an active challenge.

However, it was rare for someone like Thunder Shock Blade Venerate to not only give a blade but also martial arts.

This also indirectly demonstrated the immense strength of Taoist Brother Tianjian.

Taoist Brother Tianjian nodded slowly for the first time, some even seemed to see that always indifferent expression soften a bit, greatly easing Thunder Shock Blade Venerate’s tense heart. Otherwise, if he couldn’t quell the anger of Taoist Brother Tianjian, and ended up being cut down later with a single sword, who would listen to his grievances?

From start to finish, besides the word ’cut’, Taoist Brother Tianjian hadn’t uttered another word.

After nodding, Taoist Brother Tianjian moved suddenly.

The Heavenly Thunder Blade beside him burst into dazzling light, seemingly even more terrifying than when in Thunder Shock Blade Venerate’s hands, everyone’s expression tensed, and Thunder Shock Blade Venerate felt a bit panicked, could it be that Taoist Brother Tianjian was still unsatisfied after taking the Heavenly Thunder Blade?

But quickly.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Only to see Taoist Brother Tianjian using the blade as a sword, the Heavenly Thunder Blade emitted unmatched sword intent, diving downward like a mighty sword river of thunder sweeping over thousands of feet, in everyone’s eyes, the Heavenly Thunder Blade struck upon a huge boulder dozens of feet before the True Martial Mountain gate, swirling with draconic elegance, the sky filled with purple glow obscuring all view.

When the purple glow faded, the Heavenly Thunder Blade rose up, landing alongside Taoist Brother Tianjian on the True Martial rear mountain, without any further ripple.

Everyone looked towards where the boulder had been.

They couldn’t help but feel invigorated.

The dozens of feet of boulder had vanished, replaced by a sword stele standing where it once was!

On it were only two simple words.

True Martial.

Each stroke simple, yet filled with potent sword intent.

Someone couldn’t help but focus their gaze and in a moment of unpreparedness, felt like their spirit was cleaved by a heavenly sword, struck into chaos, their mind a blank slate. If there was no malice, it was merely skin turning pale and heart trembling in shock, but if there was, their eyes were stabbed by the sword intent, bleeding endlessly!
