Immortal of the Ages

Chapter 188 - Killing With a Sovereign Sword!

Chapter 188 - Killing With a Sovereign Sword!

"Kill him!" The cultivators of the Violet Sky Immortal Empire and millions of demons roared in unison, causing the magical formation of the first square to tremble slightly.

At the Ascension Gate, the Violet Emperor, who was still in a conversation with Ye Qingtian, suddenly froze. Bloodshot veins in his eyes snaked out like serpents, and his face sank into a dark gloom.

The heirs he had painstakingly nurtured for over a decade had not lasted even a moment. Four of them, gone in the blink of an eye, ascending to heaven!

This was a scenario all too familiar to Ye Qingtian, Mu Tianshi, and You Fengya.

They had stretched their imaginations to predict Yun Xiao's potential, but all of them still failed to predict this outcome. After all, Yun Xiao was a person of great destiny, capable of provoking the heavens to invoke a Great Merciful Tribulation for annihilation!

Yun Xiao had once again out-predicted their predictions, piercing through their imaginations with a single sword thrust!

ι══????????══ι?

"Clear the area?" The face of the Violet Sky Crown Prince twisted into a blood-red mask. These were his four younger brothers and sisters. He'd watched them grow up and fondly listened to them calling out to him for over a decade. Now, only their four clever heads remained.

A torrent of rage, vengeance, and murderous intent erupted from the Crown Prince's chest like a volcano, unleashing an unstoppable force!

The Crown Prince was in the Saint Realm. Having endured five Wind Fire Tribulations, he had forged his magic power into sacred power. What was once an ethereal force had almost turned into a liquid violet stream, coursing through his Dantian and meridians, even spilling out over his skin. It surged through his face, hair, skin, and brocade robe, transforming the Crown Prince into a figure akin to a violet Immortal deity.

In the lore of the Immortal Empires, reaching the Saint Realm was a monumental transformation for any cultivator!

Once one attained sainthood, their combat prowess skyrocketed, overwhelming anyone below the Saint Realm. This was precisely why Saints held such an esteemed status in the Divine and Demon Continents.

Up until now, in the War of Immortals, the thirteen Saints and Demon Saints were all virtually invincible, with no equal in battle!

Among the initial betting odds, the Crown Prince ranked twelfth, placing him above Chen Xi.

“Yun Xiao, in the Wind Fire Tribulation Realm, is already this powerful. Can he possibly stand against a Saint?”

Suddenly, this Cycle Battle's mightiest duel captured the attention of nearly everyone around.

Hundreds of other ongoing battles went unnoticed!

With a resounding clang, the infuriated Crown Prince summoned a magic treasure without another word.

This treasure, surrounded by a violet mist and inlaid with violet crystals, brimmed with the force of desolation. Its surface was covered in runes, and it was clearly more powerful than the Imperial Seal or the Gust Dazzle Fan.

It was at least Mid Galaxy grade!

To Yun Xiao's surprise, the magic treasure was a sword! “A sword can be a magic treasure too?” he asked Nangong Xu, turning back.

“To be precise, swords make up the largest proportion of magic treasures!” Nangong Xu explained, slightly embarrassed.

“That makes it rather awkward for us Sword Cultivators, huh?” Yun Xiao shook his head. He had thought swords were exclusive to Sword Cultivators.

“The Violet Qi Sword!” As the sword emerged, a wave of astonished murmurs rippled through the crowd.

Clearly, the Crown Prince had not yet faced an opponent worthy of wielding this magic sword in his rampage.

His eyes blazed with a dense violet aura, his hand gripping the Violet Qi Sword tightly. Flames danced upon the blade as the Holy Essence collided with the magic sword, creating an unmatched aura that bore down upon his opponent.

"Yun Xiao," the Crown Prince said, raising his sword. His eyes exuded an imperial majesty as the Violet Qi Sword shone like the sun at its zenith. His voice was deep and resonant, "I am the true Sword Cultivator!"

Yun Xiao found this curious. He transformed his Sword Soul into a three-foot azure blade, with 250 layers of Sword Aura whistling densely around it. Five Sword Rings circled like a nightmare, and his white robes fluttered as he soared, his divine countenance adding to his striking appearance.

"Oh, are you now? My apologies. How embarrassing, and here I thought I was a Sword Cultivator all along." Yun Xiao replied sarcastically. "How about you enlighten me?"

"Hmph!" The Crown Prince snorted. "Firstly, I don’t need to toil to enhance my Sword Aura or Sword Soul. With this magic treasure in hand, my sword can break countless Sword Souls!" He represented a faction that scorned the path of sword cultivation, not only seeking to kill Yun Xiao but also to shatter everything he took pride in.

"Go on," Yun Xiao prompted.

"Second, Sword Souls have innate limits, but magic treasures do not! We who cultivate swords are not constrained by talent. With enough money and backing, even a youth can possess a peerless magic sword, becoming a king of the Sword Dao!"

"Anything else?"

"Third, magic swords can transform into Flying Swords, Palm Swords, and Sovereign Swords. Controlled by thought, they can slay from several thousand meters away!"

"Is that all?"

"There's a fourth!" The Crown Prince pointed his sword at Yun Xiao, declaring loudly, "Even if my sword is destroyed, I can simply replace it! But if your sword is destroyed, it means your death!"

After finishing, he sneered, "You fools, tempering your own bones, clashing your bone against the supreme magic treasures of others. I call your cultivation system trash. Do you concede?"

"Agreed!" No sooner had Yun Xiao spoken than his white figure flashed and vanished from its original spot.

HUM! He reappeared right in front of the Crown Prince, his three-foot azure blade shimmering with starlight, slashing downwards in the shape of a constellation.

The Roaring Cloud Dragon, Ghostly Blood Pool, Polar Thunder Strike, and Skydome Tempest—these four demon magics merged within the Constellation Slaying Sword, intertwining water, blood, wind, thunder, and the murderous intent of a constellation!

With a single slash, his sword streaked like a comet!

This strike, tracing the ever-changing path of a constellation, was unpredictable and full of artistic swordplay, brimming with killing intent.

One sword to cut open the heavens!

"Clashing swords, is it?!" the Crown Prince sneered, a sinister smile on his face. His earlier mocking of Sword Cultivators had one purpose—to provoke Yun Xiao into a head-on sword clash!

Sword techniques? The Crown Prince knew them too! He was also a dual practitioner of the Sword Dao!

Beneath the Constellation Sword's Comet, the Crown Prince's sacred power buzzed, channeling endless power into his Violet Qi Sword. The sword buzzed, radiating sword energy in every direction!

KLANG! With a swift motion, he thrust the Violet Qi Sword forward, its countless runes glittering as they surged towards the tip, exploding in a dazzling violet light, like a violet sun illuminating the battlefield in an instant!

Violet Qi Sword Canon, Violet Sun Illumination!

A top-tier magic sword was naturally equipped with Galaxy grade sword techniques!

The Crown Prince believed he had the advantage. His eyes shone with a violet glow as his face twisted fiercely. He summoned a force even greater than that of Yun Xiao's as his Violet Sun Illumination collided with Yun Xiao's Streaking Comet!

KLANG! The clash of swords emitted a shrill, piercing sound that made countless onlookers cover their ears!

Sparks flew where the blades met.

The raw power of the Violet Qi Sword and its runes clashed with the demon magic and Sword Aura of Yun Xiao's sword, creating explosive sword shockwaves that rippled outwards!

BOOM! With his lower cultivation, Yun Xiao was forced several steps back, the ground beneath him cracking and breaking apart. Even so, he remained agile, his white robe fluttering as he moved with a light, carefree grace.

Although the Crown Prince held his ground, the demon magics of water, blood, wind, and thunder unleashed by Yun Xiao's sword enveloped him. Numerous dense Sword Auras tore through his magic armor, leaving deep, deadly marks on his hands and face.

Half of his body was soaked in blood!

"He might be less powerful than me, but his Sword Rings and demon magic are brutally effective!" the Crown Prince thought, wiping the blood from his eyes, staring at Yun Xiao in disbelief.

Had Yun Xiao's Sword Soul shattered upon clashing with the Violet Qi Sword? This was what the Crown Prince most wanted to know. But then, he was stunned at the scene before him.

Far from being shattered, Yun Xiao's sword grew in size until it transformed into a six-foot-long Sovereign Sword! Taller than a man and wider than a palm, floating horizontally in the air, it was a massive azure sword!

When the Sword Aura and Sword Rings of this colossal azure sword emerged, the dazzling visual spectacle was simply breathtaking!

WHOOSH! Just as the Crown Prince parried the demonic assault, Yun Xiao soared onto the six-foot Sovereign Sword, his feet landing firmly on the blade, pointing its tip directly at the Crown Prince.

"Trying to flee on a Sovereign Sword?!" the Crown Prince sneered, gripping his Violet Qi Sword and shattering the ground beneath him with a step, his sacred power swirling as he charged at Yun Xiao.

Sovereign Sword Technique, Fleeting Moon!

From a distance, Nangong Xu, sensing something, paused his healing to watch with eyes shining brightly.

In that instant, Yun Xiao and the six-foot green Sovereign Sword vanished from their spot!

The Heaven Burial Sword Soul, in that split second, exploded with a speed rivaling a Flying Sword, carrying Yun Xiao in an azure storm of stars. Like a colossal beast sweeping across the sky, he charged head-on towards the Crown Prince.

The scene was akin to a horse charging into a person!

VROOM! The azure storm of man and sword burst forth with deafening sonic booms. What appeared to be a straightforward charge on the Sovereign Sword was actually a combination of the Constellation Slaying Sword's Fleeting Moon and Ten-Step Scale!

In a flash of light, the Crown Prince couldn't see where Yun Xiao and his sword were anymore! What a joke! He'd spoken so much nonsense, only to be left completely helpless in the wake of Yun Xiao's sword technique!

BUZZ! The Crown Prince couldn't see Yun Xiao, but suddenly, ninety-nine bloodshot giant eyes appeared before him, blanketing the sky. Each eye held a malevolent spirit, haunting his soul with their ghostly gazes!

"AAAHH!" Blood clouded the Crown Prince's eyes, and the sweat-inducing terror of death seized his soul.

In this fatal moment, a chill ran down his spine. His mind blanked as he swung his Violet Qi Sword wildly, slashing forward in desperation with the techniques of the Violet Qi Sword Canon. Never had he felt his Violet Qi Sword so powerless, so alien in his hands!

"No!" the Crown Prince cried out. As the Violet Qi Sword struck out, a massive azure sword tip suddenly pierced through the illusory soul-ensnaring technique, striking like lightning. It was like a charging cavalier, knocking the Violet Qi Sword aside.

And atop this sword, a white-robed youth leaned forward, masterfully controlling the Sovereign Sword!

PUFF! The tip of the six-foot giant azure sword pierced straight through the Crown Prince's chest!

VROOM! Yun Xiao, riding the six-foot Sovereign Sword, carried the Crown Prince forward, dragging a two-hundred-yard-long trail of blood!

BAM! The tip of the giant azure sword penetrated the Prince’s chest and spine, crashing into the wall of the first square, causing a thunderous rumble across the battlefield!

"Ugh!" The Crown Prince dangled limply, impaled by the giant sword on the wall, his legs hanging as blood and visceral fragments cascaded down. "Yun Xiao..." His eyes nearly popped out in shock.

And there, standing on the sword, the white-robed youth stood casually, his robes fluttering, looking as majestic as a deity.

"Strike, a strike! Mowed down in a single sword strike!" Zhao Xiaotang shouted in awe, his eyes sparkling.

"Not a sword strike! More like vehicular slaughter!!" Chen Jin slapped Zhao Xiaotang's head in excitement, not realizing his own strength, almost sending him reeling.

"So cool! A Sovereign Sword can kill? And that blow was so powerful too!" Stray Dog gazed in admiration, eyes wide with revelation.

Almost everyone present was seeing for the first time that a Sovereign Sword could be used to kill so spectacularly!
