Immortal Sword Master

Chapter 394: Chapter 390: Sword Reversing Heaven and Earth

The storm was like a dragon, its potent energy a surging tide. A terrifying power enveloped the sky for thousands of feet.

The many Martial Artists of the Extreme Heaven Sect all looked on, horrified.

”Is this the might of a King’s Weapon? A single sword possesses such heaven-reaching divine power.”

”The rumors say a King can destroy a city with a flick of their finger. It’s really true!”

The people watched the sky in terror.

CLANG!

A hundred-zhang Sword Aura, agile as a dragon, tore through the sky. Before the Sword Qi even arrived, a chilling frost filled the air.

The immense Sword Qi shot forth, brilliant to the extreme. This was the power of a mere casual swing, yet it sent a chill through the hearts of the three True Monarchs.

This one strike alone was unstoppable for anyone below the Supreme Celestial Rank.

But the Extreme Heaven Monarch strode forward step by step, his aura surging like a tsunami.

Light radiated from his entire body, inside and out. The light finally converged upon his right fist. As the Extreme Heaven Monarch threw the punch, it slammed into the Sword Aura with a BANG.

BOOM.

A sound like a great temple bell reverberated between heaven and earth. The vast, potent energy swept across the entire mountaintop, erupting into a cloud of white mist.

Beneath his fist, the massive Sword Aura shattered inch by inch, like a string of firecrackers going off.

”In the end, this is not a King’s Weapon at its peak. What can it do to me?” the Extreme Heaven Monarch’s voice was cold.

The Demon Slaying Sword was, after all, damaged. Its current power was only about half of what it was at its peak. If it were a true King’s Weapon with its own spirit, its combat strength would be enough to sweep through all realms below the Celestial Martial Realm.

”You’re right. But it’s more than enough to deal with you.”

Ning Jiang’s expression was as calm as an ancient well. He stepped on the void, soaring into the sky.

The Demon Slaying Sword in his hand unleashed an even more formidable sword might. With the Demon Slaying Sword at its center, the might formed ripples visible to the naked eye, sweeping out in all directions.

”Long River Sunset.”

He slashed out with his sword.

In the sky, a thousand-zhang-long river surged, and a golden setting sun appeared, startlingly lifelike.

When Long River Sunset was unleashed with the Demon Slaying Sword, wasn’t its power amplified by more than a thousand times?

’Just one strike, and an entire Upper Grade Sect would be utterly annihilated.’

An expert at the Earth Martial Realm trembled as he watched. In the face of such power, they were no different from insignificant ants.

”Insignificant as an ant.”

The Extreme Heaven Monarch’s eyes looked down upon the world. He regarded the Sword Aura, capable of killing a Heaven-Reaching Realm expert, as nothing. He stretched out his five fingers, covered by the Profound Gold Battle Armor, and struck with his palm.

RUMBLE.

The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi of the entire area was drawn in by his palm. A gale howled, and people couldn’t even stand firm under the might of his strike.

BAM.

The Sword Aura was shattered once again, failing to achieve anything.

But Ning Jiang did not retreat in the slightest. His will to fight boiled as the Sword Aura in his hand grew ever more brilliant. Sword after sword tore through the void, slashing down from above.

In an instant, he had unleashed dozens of strikes. The entire space was covered by Sword Auras raining down from above—an indiscriminate attack that sealed off all escape.

DONG!

Ning Jiang had frantically attacked with dozens of sword strikes, yet the Extreme Heaven Monarch answered with only a single punch.

He curled his fingers into a fist. The Profound Gold Battle Armor enveloping his hand gleamed with a brilliant, dark light. As he punched, it seemed as if the power of a hundred-mile radius was concentrated upon it.

RUMBLE!

The terror of this punch was beyond description. In the eyes of the crowd, only that dark golden fist remained. It not only shook the void but also filled their entire minds. Before the fist even landed, its terrifying intent had deeply seeped into everyone’s heart.

Some with weaker Cultivation even spat up blood, wounded by the sheer pressure of its might.

The overwhelming Sword Auras were all smashed to pieces by this one punch.

”Again.”

Ning Jiang’s expression did not change. The light from the Demon Slaying Sword flared brilliantly.

Achieving Man and Sword as One, he transformed directly into a beam of Sword Aura like immortal light. He carved a long scar across the sky, shooting forward like a white rainbow piercing the sun.

Myriad Swords Technique, Second Form: One Sword Soars Immortal.

”Decent power, but not enough to matter.”

The Extreme Heaven Monarch’s aura surged. His long hair whipped about, and the terrifying pressure left countless people breathless.

”Great Capturing Hand!”

He stretched out his palm. His five fingers shone with a brilliant light, covered in densely packed runes.

CLANG!

A metallic screech rang out as the Demon Slaying Sword met his palm.

Before the horrified eyes of the crowd, the Extreme Heaven Monarch had actually caught Ning Jiang’s sword with one hand.

’This is the true Great Capturing Hand. We are far from this level.’

The three True Monarchs secretly shook their heads. The Great Capturing Hand was a technique created by the Extreme Heaven Monarch himself. It was a famous Martial Art within the Extreme Heaven Sect, but very few were able to cultivate it.

”Break.”

The Demon Slaying Sword vibrated violently, releasing a torrential sword might.

”Hmph.”

The Extreme Heaven Monarch snorted coldly. He felt as if he were holding a True Dragon, a terrifying power capable of overturning mountains and seas surging toward him.

His Great Capturing Hand, while able to restrain it for a moment, could not truly subdue it.

He immediately loosened his grip, and the Demon Slaying Sword broke free.

”Myriad Swords Return to One!”

The moment the sword was free, an even more ferocious attack erupted.

Behind Ning Jiang, tens of thousands of sword shadows appeared. Each one shone brilliantly, filling the void.

The next moment, all the sword shadows merged into the Demon Slaying Sword.

SHIIING.

Ning Jiang guided it with his Magic Formulas.

The azure Demon Slaying Sword abruptly transformed into a ten-foot-long expanse of cyan light, resplendent and beautiful like a rainbow in the sky.

Although this Sword Aura lacked the grand presence of the previous ones, it was condensed to the extreme, making it far more dangerous—capable of slicing through metal, breaking iron, and cleaving the earth with a single strike.

This sword strike was sublime and untraceable, a work of heavenly perfection. A chill ran through the hearts of all who saw it.

”These Sword Techniques are quite extraordinary.”

The Extreme Heaven Monarch offered a word of praise. With his Eye Power, he could naturally see that the Sword Technique Ning Jiang cultivated was absolutely Top Level. Perhaps only the Celestial Sword Technique of the Celestial Sword Sect could surpass it.

”A pity that before me, it is all wasted effort.”

His voice was cold, his aura surging. Brilliant rays of light transformed into roaming dragons, surging from his body and pouring into his hands.

A Divine Flame erupted within his palms, like a pair of scorching little suns, emitting endless light.

”Suppress!”

Just as the Demon Slaying Sword slashed down, he slammed his hands together, forcefully clamping the blade between them.

”Open.”

Ning Jiang roared.

The cyan light flared. The Demon Slaying Sword released a torrential sword might. The Extreme Heaven Monarch didn’t force the issue, releasing his hands and letting the sword return to Ning Jiang.

”What other moves do you have? Bring them all out.”

The Extreme Heaven Monarch said flatly.

”The Sect Leader’s divine might is supreme! This boy’s tricks are completely useless.”

The faces of the many Extreme Heaven Sect disciples were flushed with excitement. By now, anyone could see that Ning Jiang’s series of attacks had been of little use against the Extreme Heaven Monarch.

From the looks of it, the Extreme Heaven Monarch had yet to even use his full strength.

”Myriad Swords Technique, Fourth Form: Sword Reversing Heaven and Earth!”

No words could describe this sword strike.

One could only see the Demon Slaying Sword slash out. At that moment, it was as if the sky was no longer the sky and the earth was no longer the earth. Only that one glimmer of sword light existed for all eternity.

Heaven and earth itself seemed to be turned upside down and thrown into chaos by this single strike.

’It’s that sword strike.’

The pupils of Yun Dingtian, the Thunder Spirit Body, contracted sharply. This was the very sword strike that had defeated him.

And now, unleashed through the Demon Slaying Sword, Sword Reversing Heaven and Earth possessed a might that could shake the very heavens and earth!
