Crestflow Dao Monarch. He wasn't that famous but the majority of ancient cultivators knew him well albeit by his name only. This monarch instilled fear in the hearts of many people as he declared his superiority in the Nine Heavens.
Being born as a mortal, the academy helped him to where he was right now. And him being the second monarch to be nurtured by the academy was also real. No one could counter any of his as he was very powerful and everyone knew it.
Sword Ancestor looked at Crestflow and sighed. His hunch was truly right that the one who tell on the item was this monarch who they had cared for in the past.
"Sword Ancestor, it's been a while." Crestflow bowed his head in respect to the ancestor, "I'm glad that you are doing well."
"Why did you sell the academy?" Sword Ancestor was full of grievance. Despite being a mortal, they loved and cherished Crestflow like their son in the past. Yet, this was how he would pay them back?
Everyone was also having a bad taste when looking at him. He was able to sell the academy for meager benefits, he was an ingrate to the core. No one wanted to befriend him.
"Ancestor, the academy has no longer any connection with me." Crestflow smiled and said, "I am merely a vagabond now. Why should I care about the academy's being?"
It was ruthless to hear and many wanted to skin him alive. However, it wasn't their issue to begin with so they couldn't do something about it.
"Because at least you should have the respect for the parent who raised you, asshole." Fallblade's mind was full of curses. He wanted to swear and swear at Crestflow but he knew it's going to be useless.
"Whether I have respect or not will be up to me." Crestflow's eyes sharpened, "Now, let me personally ask you Sword Ancestor. We need that item."
"You wish." Fallblade couldn't take it anymore and attacked. He created various slashes of his sword dao towards Crestflow.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!" Red sword arcs appeared going to Crestflow. Each arch carried a scary momentum that could topple the ground with ease.
Crestflow took out his sword and swung it against the red sword arcs. The way he did it was too easy and he didn't find difficulty dealing with it at all.
"Falling Mountain Slash!" Fallblade didn't end his attack there. He immediately created a stronger and heavier slash that could split the world. It was a big gray sword arc filled with natural energy.
"Rumble!" The ground shook as hell as if it's going to break. Crestflow looked at the slash and didn't dare to underestimate it. Then, he created a slash that could counter it with a bit of his true power.
"Boom!" The Falling Mountain Slash of Fallblade Dao Monarch was countered by a slash created by Crestflow Dao Monarch. The impact created severe effects in the surroundings and almost ruptured the whole place. Winds were scattered in all directions as the two fight it out.
"Activate!" Fallblade was determined to kill Crestflow. He used his Dao Palaces and activated it.
For Dao Monarchs, the Dao Palace was very important to them as it contained their dao and everything else.
Crestflow was a bit surprised to see this and said, "Oh? You are already a 4-palace monarch, that's pretty amazing."
The rank of the Dao Monarchs depended on the Dao Palaces they had. For Fallblade's situation, he had already 4 Dao Palaces thus he could be called 4-palace Monarch.
Monarchs could increase their palaces by proving their daos once again. It would take a meticulous and painstaking effort to even add one palace to your rank. Nevertheless, it's a great power boost once you successfully add palaces to your cultivation.
"Enough chitchat and show me what you've got!" Fallblade shouted. His first palace opened and released a terrifying energy. It then circulated above and created a whirlpool out of it.
"Boom!" The terrifying energy descended towards Crestflow in a threatening manner. However, Crestflow didn't move an inch as if he was welcoming this terrifying whirlpool of energy.
Fallblade sneered. This energy was called Titanus, something he captured from a certain place when he traveled the Nine Heavens. Although he paid a price for this, it was worth it.
Titanus was said to be an energy left by Titan Dao Monarch, the third-ranked in the Nine Heavens Asura. No one knew whether he was still alive or not, but if he was, the world would surely turn crazy. Remember, being at the top 3 of the Asuras already made a monster more of a monster!
The target place was filled with thick smoke. Fallblade knew that the whirlpool had directly hit Crestflow but he wasn't sure what's the effect of it to the enemy. But he was sure that it wasn't enough to kill him.
After a minute, the smoke thinned and Crestflow could be seen standing motionless. He was looking at Fallblade with a smile on his face as if he's provoking him, "Fallblade, that attack just now tickled me. Do you have perhaps more of that?"
"Bastard." Fallblade was triggered and dashed towards Crestflow. Since attacks like that didn't work, he'd just slash physically with his blade.
Crestflow smirked when he saw this and said, "Ah, Fallblade. You are still too young to antagonize me."
After which, he swung his sword towards the incoming Fallblade with a heavy momentum and force energy. Since the sword was embedded with terrifying force energy, its power was boosted several times.
"Boom!" As a result when they clashed, Fallblade was thrown away several miles while throwing up blood on the way.
"Argh!" Eventually, he ended bumping against a hill and created a pit in it while puking bad blood. His vision had also turned blurry as he tried to struggle to get up.
Sword Ancestor wanted to help him. However, he was blocked by the three Elder Pugans, "Sword Ancestor, you should be facing us not the other way around. It's a disrespect to your opponent, no?"
"Get out of my way if you don't to face immediate death.." Sword Ancestor said with utmost coldness.
