Chapter 2233 - 2233 Battling Dugu Bupo, The Sword Dao Celestial Demon, The Nine Ways Spirit World
2233 Battling Dugu Bupo, The Sword Dao Celestial Demon, The Nine Ways Spirit World
“He’s Dugu Bupo, the cultivator ranked third on the Divine Bachelor Leaderboard!”
“He must’ve just arrived in the Great Hongmeng Universe recently, and he’s third on the Divine Bachelor Leaderboard. His sword intent is frightening too.”
“That’s right. It’s several times stronger compared to Lu Wuheng’s.”
“This person will surely be ranked on the Supreme Honorable Leaderboard.”
“Oh, right. I almost forgot. His name is on the Supreme Honorable Leaderboard too. I can say that he’s one of the most elite cultivators below a Monarch’s level.”
Dugu Bupo’s mighty appearance in the Nine Ways Mountains made him the topic of everyone’s discussion.
Meanwhile, his sword intent and Chu Kuangren’s sword intent continued colliding.
Both cultivators had not drawn their swords, yet to the horror of everyone else, the aura caused by their sword qi clashing had enveloped the surrounding terrain.
“Boom!”
At that moment, the void blew up.
Dugu Bupo’s figure instantly disappeared.
Only his sword intent remained in the realm.
“Whoosh!”
A sword ray filled with potent sword intent suddenly erupted at Chu Kuangren. Before the user could be located, the sword ray had been launched!
“Ha!”
Chu Kuangren chuckled and looked nonchalantly at the sword ray heading toward him. He formed a sword hand sign and slowly launched his attack, shattering the sword ray.
“Do you think that’s all I’ve got?”
Dugu Bupo appeared from the void with a longsword in his hand that shone in purple and released a surge of sword qi.
“Sword Fourteen!”
Like a hurricane, the sword ray destroyed everything in its surroundings.
“Sword Fourteen,” Chu Kuangren uttered and slashed his sword hand sign down in the void.
It was the same Sword Fourteen technique.
However, the power of his attack was on another level!
“Boom!”
When the two surges of sword qi clashed, Dugu Bupo’s Sword Fourteen was torn into shreds. His gaze narrowed. “Sword Fifteen!”
“Sword Fifteen!”
Chu Kuangren retaliated with the same technique again.
They both unleashed the Holy Spirit Sword Art with great mastery.
It was a domineering display of power.
Although they used the same sword techniques, both sword techniques contained different sword intents.
Nine Ways Mountain trembled the moment the sword qi clashed. The very sight of that horrified the surrounding sword cultivators.
Be it Chu Kuangren of Dugu Bupo, any of the sword techniques they casually unleashed gave the onlooking cultivators an insurmountable feeling.
Both of their Sword Daos were on a whole different level compared to common cultivators like them.
The difference was too great!
“Our swords are nothing before the likes of theirs.”
“That’s right. They’re simply terrifying.”
“This is what the true Sword Dao looks like in practice.”
The non-stop clash between Holy Spirit Sword Arts continued.
Eventually, the entire Nine Ways Mountain was enveloped with waves upon waves of sword qi.
The cultivators watched the battle with their jaws on the floor, stunned.
Following the emergence of the Holy Spirit Sword Art’s Sword Twenty-three, both Chu Kuangren and Dugu Bupo’s sword intents intensified.
Two overwhelming auras of destruction erupted and collided with each other.
“Sword Twenty-three!” Dugu Bupo roared.
Endless black sword qi gushed out from his body, with every single strand containing the intent to destroy all living things. It was truly a terrifying sight.
The sword qi turned into a black hurricane, and the surroundings trembled in its wake.
Chu Kuangren also formed his sword hand sign, releasing countless strands of sword qi from his body.
His dazzling sword ray illuminated the surrounding terrain.
“Boom!”
The ultimate clash between the two Sword Twenty-three techniques caused a huge explosion above Nine Ways Mountain. All life on the mountain was wiped out, and the mountain was leveled.
“Nine Ways Mountain… is gone!”
“By the heavens, this sword qi is just too frightening.”
Everyone gasped with shock.
Despite having reduced Nine Ways Mountain into rubble, the sword qi of the Sword Twenty-three technique did not disappear. The two surges of sword qi turned into a huge tornado as they intertwined, emitting sounds of metal clanging as if millions of swords were clashing against each other.
The sword qi tornado rose into the air, breaking apart the clouds in the sky.
It was as if a huge hole had been blown open in the sky.
Everyone in the crowd could vaguely see several planets in the sky getting destroyed by the sword qi. Their fragments rained from the sky like a meteor shower.
The sword qi from the battle on the ground immediately shot through space!
“Wow, these two are pretty terrifying.”
Divine Bachelor Fengyue laughed while holding the two ladies in his arms.
Although he sounded carefree, he had never looked so serious before.
“If these two can offer themselves to the ways of Buddhism, it’ll be a great blessing to all life in this world.” The handsome Buddhist monk, Gu Chan, held his palms together and mumbled.
In the air, Chu Kuangren and Dugu Bupo were facing each other.
Remnant strands of sword qi swirled in their surroundings.
“Wonderful. I didn’t expect to encounter someone like you after I broke through to the Supreme Honorable Realm.” Dugu Bupo laughed.
However, Chu Kuangren remained silent.
Dugu Bupo’s sword intent continued rising. “Chu Kuangren, Sword Twenty-three is the limit of the Holy Spirit Sword Art. Do you have anything else to offer?”
“The variety and number of techniques I possess is unfathomable for the likes of you.”
“Haha. How interesting. Ever since I broke through to the Supreme Honorable Realm, I have never used this technique before. Today, I shall use it on you.”
As Dugu Bupo’s sword intent continued rising, a violent aura filled the surroundings, and a Celestial Demon Avatar started forming behind him!
That avatar was dozens of kilometers tall.
It was surrounded by strands of terrifying sword qi.
It also emanated a frightening Sword Dao aura that horrified everyone present.
“Chu Kuangren, witness the might of my Celestial Demon Sword Dao!” Dugu Bupo yelled.
The Celestial Demon Avatar behind him slowly raised its hands, gathering the surrounding sword qi to form a giant sword that reached the skies!
On the blade of the sword was a pattern of stars that released a dazzling light.
The sword aura was so terrifying that everyone was weighed down by it and could not lift their heads.
Many sword cultivators were even afraid to look at that sword.
“This is just too much!”
“I’m afraid this sword attack is even more powerful than Sword Twenty-three!”
Everyone’s eyes widened in fear.
Even Mingyue Wuxia was stunned. “How fascinating.”
Then, she looked at Chu Kuangren with a hopeful gaze.
She wondered how Chu Kuangren would defend such a terrifying attack.
“Compared to Jian Shifang, at least this attack of yours is worth my attention,” Chu Kuangren commented.
Then, his sword intent flowed out, followed by a wave of razor-sharp intent.
“Buzz!”
The void trembled when the Descendant Self Sword appeared in his grasp.
He had finally drawn his sword.
“Splendid. It looks like you’re finally taking it seriously.” Dugu Bupo’s gaze narrowed.
Just as the two of their sword intents and ultimate techniques were about to clash, Nine Ways Mountain — or what was left of it — trembled.
The ground suddenly cracked open, releasing bursts of dazzling light, and a mysterious spatial fluctuation erupted.
The sight of it shocked the Divine Bachelors and Divine Maidens.
“What’s happening?”
“Something seems to be hidden underground.”
“Wait a minute. Could this be the Nine Ways Spirit World?”
The thought of it overjoyed the person who mentioned it.
Legend had it that Nine Ways Mountain was one of the places where humans originated from, and the Nine Ways Spirit World was hidden here. It was ranked seventh on the Spirit World Leaderboard, on par with the Great Dao Spirit World, which opened the last time.
“I never thought the Nine Ways Spirit World would open at a time like this.”
“Interesting.”
Some of the Human Guardians in the sky were a little surprised.
As the burst of light lit up the sky, a layer of colorful spatial barrier appeared in the ground beneath the Nine Ways Mountain, revealing the beautiful sceneries and landscapes within it.
Upon seeing that, Dugu Bupo’s eyes lit up, and he retracted his sword qi.
“It looks like this isn’t the time to decide the victor among us, Chu Kuangren,” said Dugu Bupo as he looked at the Nine Ways Spirit World.
“I can defeat you anytime I want,” Chu Kuangren said indifferently.
