Chapter 111: Draw Your Sword!

Han Yingmeng was so angry that she almost puked blood!

The petals that were following her instantly disappeared.

The surroundings turned silent!

Everyone looked at Ding Yue.

He was the first…

The first person who dared to speak to Han Yingmeng like this!

He was also the first male cultivator who had ever told Han Yingmeng to get lost!

"You're asking me to get lost?"

Han Yingmeng was furious.

The Floating Flower Pavilion had allowed her to lead the way so that she could show off her elegance and charm to the thousands of experts present.

In fact, she had already achieved her goal.

At the moment she appeared, countless male cultivators had been mesmerized by her graceful figure and her peerless beauty.

However, unexpectedly, at the last moment, her hard work was destroyed by this young man's words.

Ding Yue's gaze remained cold as he looked straight at her and said, "Vicious woman, don't you dare think about messing with my sword heart. You can't confuse me or lead me astray. The sword is the only thing in my heart.There's no place for you here. Give up!"

Han Yingmeng was furious. 'Who were you f*cking calling vicious? Who was f*cking trying to confuse you?'

"You… you…"

Han Yingmeng's aura surged violently. She was so angry that her delicate body trembled. Her tender white fingers pointed at Ding Yue as her killing intent manifested itself.

She was the Holy Maiden of the Floating Flower Pavilion. She possessed outstanding talent and unparalleled beauty. Many men had fallen at her feet.

They were willing to go through the depths of hell for her.

She did not need to fight for any treasures personally. All she needed to do was to spread the word and men would come to her door trying to please and serve her.

For example, Song Pang, the only son of the sect master of Nine Swords Mountain, Song Yiming, had once traveled thousands of miles to deliver treasures to curry favor with her.

When had she ever been reprimanded like this?

"Scram. You can't seduce me. If you don't leave, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Ding Yue's gaze was ice-cold as he stared fixedly at Han Yingmeng.

This woman, dressed in flowery clothes, had deliberately come overto his mountain peak. She definitely had ill intentions. There was no other reason why she would approach him out of the blue other than to seduce him?

"Hah, you would never have imagined that I, Ding Yue, had already achieved the second stage of the way of the sword. Your beauty cannot move me or cause my mind to wander. The only thing my heart contains is my Sword Dao!"

"You won't be able to mess with my sword heart!"

Han Yingmeng was this close to going crazy from anger. He dared to say that she had come here to seduce him?

This mountain peak belonged to the Floating Flower Pavilion!

This person must die!

Seeing Han Yingmeng being reprimanded like this, many people were furious. This was a good opportunity to curry favor with her.

However, before the others could make a move, Ying Jiankong walked over.

"Ding Yue, as an expelled disciple of Nine Swords Mountain, how dare you behave so arrogantly!"

"I, Ying Jiankong, would like to see what ability a piece of trash like you has!"

Everyone was stunned.

An expelled disciple of Nine Swords Mountain?

Trash?

Ding Yue was from Nine Swords Mountain, but had been expelled?

Was there a hole in the brains of those people from Nine Swords Mountain?

Such a talented person was actually expelled from Nine Swords Mountain?

That did not feel right…

Since Ying Jiankong called the other party a piece of trash, there had to be a story behind this situation.

Was Ding Yue's cultivation progress related to the opportunity he obtained?

Ying Jiankong landed beside Han Yingmeng and stared coldly at Ding Yue.

"Ding Yue, kneel down and kowtow to Holy Maiden Han. Beg her for forgiveness, and I'll let you off!"

Han Yingmeng calmed down slightly. Seeing Ying Jiankong stand up for her, she felt a little better.

She was quite popular, after all.

Look, even the top genius of Nine Swords Mountain was standing up for her.

Ding Yue looked at Ying Jiankong with disdain and sneered, "Ying Jiankong, your Sword Dao is lacking."

"Standing up for a woman who has nothing to do with you? What Sword are Dao you even cultivating?"

"Ying Jiankong, I originally thought that your Sword Dao might be worth something. However, now that I'm seeing it in person, both you and your Sword Dao are just trash."

"You actually stood up for a woman who seduced me. I, Ding Yue, am ashamed to be associated with you!"

"Master was right. There are thousands of sword cultivators in the world, but only a few are worthy of the Supreme Sword Dao!"

Ding Yue's face was filled with arrogance, as if he was saddened by the fact that there was not a single person worth discussing the Sword Daowith in the world.

Han Yingmeng was infuriated. Her tender white fingers pointed at Ding Yue as she screeched angrily, "Kill him for me. Kill him. He's gone too far!"

'B*stard! Where did you get your self-confidence from? How dare you insinuate that I, Han Yingmeng, would seduce you?'

"Ding Yue!"

Ying Jiankong pulled out his sword and the sound of the sword being unsheathed seemed to resonate in the sky.

His aura instantly skyrocketed, and it seemed as if his entire person had turned into a murderous sword.

Everyone was shocked. Ying Jiankong was indeed worthy of his status as the top genius of Nine Swords Mountain.

His comprehension of the Sword Dao had already reached such a state.

Although he was only at the ninth level of the truth realm, ordinary half-step emperor realm cultivators might not be a match for him.

The biggest winner of this trip to the Bai Sheng Mountain ruin would probably be Nine Swords Mountain.

Among the younger generation present, not one was his match.

This included the Holy Maiden of the Floating Flower pavilion, Han Yingmeng.

Han Yingmeng's expression turned serious. Ying Jiankong's strength had increased again.

The red-bearded elder of the Heavenly Cauldron Mountain was very pleased. This was his future grandson-in-law.

"I, Ying Jiankong, would like to experience just how outstanding your Sword Dao is then!"

"Draw your sword!"

Han Yingmeng's figure fluttered as she retreated. Once the battle started, she would be affected if she remained in close proximity to Ying Jiankong.

Ding Yue was still hugging his sword as he coldly looked at Ying Jiankong.

This was the person who had once belittled him to the point that he felt useless. He had fallen into the depths of despair and suffered all sorts of humiliating insults and abuse. His childhood sweetheart had also left him because of this person.

Now, it was finally time to step on this insufferably arrogant genius of Nine Swords Mountain and beat him to the ground.

Nine Swords Mountain will soon know that I, Ding Yue, possess an unparalleled Sword Dao!

'I, Ding Yue, will have no woman in my heart. When I draw my sword, it will slay a god!'

'One day, I will wield my sword and slay gods. I will reach the pinnacle of the Supreme Sword Dao!'

Ying Jiankong's heart was boiling with anger. Ding Yue's contemptuous attitude had aroused his fury.

As the number one genius of Nine Swords Mountain, he had always been invincible among those in the same realm ever since he started cultivating.

Not one person in the same realm had ever been able to defeat him.

This would not be the first time that he had crossed one or two small realms to kill his enemies.

As for Ding Yue, he actually looked down on him so much that he did not even bother to unsheathe his sword.

"Arrogant!"

Ying Jiankong took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

His sword vibrated.

A cold gleam flashed, and his sharp aura revealed itself, reducing the few plants on the mountain to dust.

A sword gleam appeared in the sky.

All of the experts present felt a chill run down their spine as they stared at Ying Jiankong's sword.

Too powerful!

Liu Pingfeng's expression turned heavy. Nine Swords Mountain was too powerful, and it was likely that the Great Qian Dynasty would have to make concessions because of this.

Otherwise, the Great Qian Dynasty would not give way on account of the Great Qin Empress alone.

The Great Qin Dynasty would not have been able to establish themselves and stabilize their territory either.

Everyone was amazed by Ying Jiankong's strike. He was indeed worthy of being the number one disciple of Nine Swords Mountain in the Southern Region.

None of the half-step Emperor realm experts would dare to underestimate him after seeing this strike.

Ding Yue was dead for sure!

They were both at the ninth level of the truth realm, but their strengths were vastly different.

No matter how strong Ding Yue's Sword Dao was, could it surpass Nine Swords Mountain?

Nine Swords MountainIt was the number one sword sect in the Southern Region.

Their legacy had been passed down since ancient times.

Suddenly, all of the experts sensed an unremarkable sword gleam flash by and disappear.

Ying Jiankong's sharp sword gleam shattered, and the unparalleled sword strike disappeared without a trace.

A gentle breeze blew past, and the experts felt that the gust of wind had brought with it an unprecedented sharpness, as if it was going to slice a person in half.

It was actually a thread of sword intent!!

Chapter 112: Defeating A Chosen One With A Single Sword

A deathly silence ensued.

Everyone widened their eyes and looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief.

Ying Jiankong had been defeated!

His sword-wielding hand hung by his side, and blood gushed out from his shoulder, dyeing his clothes red.

His facial expression was lifeless, as if unable to accept this result.

On the other hand, Ding Yue still held his longsword and stood proudly.

He stood alone in the midst of the experts and looked down on them.

Gulp!

Even the half-step Emperor realm experts present were stunned.

That sword strike had been too fast!

It was so fast that they only caught a brief glimpse of it before the sword was sheathed again.

They did not even see clearly that sword strike. By the time they blinked, Ying Jiankong had already been defeated.

Liu Pingfeng's eyes flashed with greed as he stared at Ding Yue. He wanted nothing more than to rope him over to the Great Qian Dynasty's side.

As an expelled disciple of Nine Swords Mountain, how could he not hate the Nine Swords Mountain?

Liu Pingfeng could use him to pin down Nine Swords Mountain.

Even though he was a ninth-level truth realm cultivator, defeating Ying Jiankong with one strike meant that he was a threat to even half-step Emperor realm cultivators.

To be honest, Liu Pingfeng knew that he had no chance of beating Ding Yue in a fight.

The people from the other forces were also having various thoughts.

Nine Swords Mountain's elder, who was sitting cross-legged on a big rock, stood up and looked at Ding Yue with a serious expression.

Nine Sword Mountain's number one disciple, Ying Jiankong, had actually lost to an expelled disciple of Nine Swords Mountain.

This was undoubtedly a ruthless slap on Nine Swords Mountain's face.

It would even become a joke in the cultivation world, that Nine Swords Mountain was blind and had expelled a true peerless genius!

Ying Jiankong's lips trembled with disbelief. After a long while, he raised his head and stared at Ding Yue.

"I lost? That's impossible. You must have used some kind of secret treasure!"

"Ha!"

Ding Yue smiled contemptuously. "You can't accept your loss?"

"I used a secret treasure?"

"Did you even see my sword strike?"

Clang!

A sword gleam flashed past. Before Ying Jiankong could react, a sword was already pressed against his throat.

Fast!

It was so fast that he could not react in time.

Ying Jiankong's face turned ashen.

He had really lost!

He had lost to an expelled disciple of Nine Swords Mountain, who he had regarded as a useless piece of trash.

How ridiculous was this?

He would eventually be treated as a joke in the cultivator world!

"Ding Yue, stop!"

A woman angrily rebuked him from the top of Nine Swords Mountain's peak.

Ding Yue's heart did not waver at all. He did not even turn his head. He completely ignored that angry rebuke.

At this moment, he realized even more deeply that the three stages of the way of the sword that his master had imparted to him were extremely profound!

The person he loved would only bring him harm!

It was indeed true!

Just look! She had rebuked him angrily.

If he had not forgotten about his sweetheart, he would definitely have felt cold, sad, indignant, and distracted after being rebuked like this.

Turning his head back to look at that person in this situation would undoubtedly be extremely dangerous, and might even get him killed!

Hmph!

'I, Ding Yue, have already broken through the first stage of the way of the sword and have forgotten about my sweetheart!'

'Trying to mess with my heart? Dream on!'

Ding Yue stared at Ying Jiankong and said, "Do you know why you lost to me?"

"Why?"

Ying Jiankong looked at him blankly.

"Because you have a woman in your heart!"

Ying Jiankong: "???"

Han Yingmeng: "???"

Everyone: "???"

Everyone was stunned. Ying Jiankong had indeed lost to you, but what did that have to do with a woman?

Could it be that he had stolen your childhood sweetheart?

Ding Yue sheathed his sword and looked at Ying Jiankong with disdain. "A woman will only affect the speed at which you draw your sword!"

Ying Jiankong: "???"

Han Yingmeng: "???"

Everyone: "???"

"What does this have to do with a woman?" Ying Jiankong took a deep breath and asked.

He felt that Ding Yue was mocking him.

He was definitely being mocked for having stolen Ding Yue's childhood sweetheart, yet being defeated by him in the end.

"This is the difference between you and me. This is the reason why you are unable to comprehend the Supreme Sword Dao."

"You have a woman in your heart, and you have a woman by your side. Your heart is burdened and is full of hesitation. As such, your sword is slow and not fierce enough. Therefore, you lost."

Ding Yue held his sword in his arms and looked down at him.

Ying Jiankong was silent for a moment.

Was that really the case?

Was it because Han Yingmeng was by his side? Did he not display his full strength when he attacked to avoid accidentally hurting her?

It was possible!

With this thought in mind, Ying Jiankong turned his head to look at Han Yingmeng and said, "Move further away from me. I will try again!"

Han Yingmeng: "???"

Her pretty face turned red with anger. What did Ying Jiankong mean by that?

Was he implying that she was a hindrance?

B*stard!

She glared hatefully at Ding Yue. It was all this b*stard's fault. He had gone too far!

Her graceful figure fluttered as she retreated.

Ying Jiankong took out some medicinal pills and consumed them to recover his energy and heal his injuries.

Ding Yue just continued looking at him indifferently, waiting for him to make his second attempt.

He did not want to kill Ying Jiankong.

There was no meaning in killing him.

He wanted to become a huge barrier to Ying Jiankong's Sword Dao. He would make Ying Jiankong hate him, but be completely helpless. The latter would want nothing more than to kill him, but would be completely powerless to do nothing about it.

He wanted to become Ying Jiankong's inner demon.

Every time he recalled that the piece of trash who he had once humiliated had left him far behind, and that no matter how he chased after him, he would never reach him.

He would live in torment daily, wallowing in self-mockery and self-pity.

After half a day, Ying Jiankong's injuries had basically healed.

His strength had once again recovered to its peak.

In addition, the rest of the Floating Flower Pavilion's exploration team.

Their leader was a beautiful woman who was also a half-step Emperor realm expert.

Looking at the mountain peak that was occupied by Ding Yue, her expression darkened. She was about to make a move to expel Ding Yue.

1

Han Yingmeng hurriedly stopped her.

Ding Yue was too powerful. If the Floating Flower Pavilion offended such a strong man with endless potential, there would be endless trouble in the future.

It was not the only mountain peak there, after all.

Moreover, even if she attacked, she might necessarily be able to beat Ding Yue.

The half-step Emperor realm elder of Nine Swords Mountain did not attack either.

It was precisely because he was not confident.

Otherwise, he would have made a move long ago to eliminate Ding Yue. As an expelled disciple, he was a future threat to the safety of Nine Swords Mountain.

The Floating Flower Pavilion chased away one of the other forces and occupied the mountain next to the one Ding Yue was on.

At this moment, Ying Jiankong drew his sword again.

His aura was condensed but contained.

He was like a sharp sword that had not been unsheathed.

He was not in a hurry to make a move.

Even though Ding Yue was simply holding the longsword in his arms and ignoring him, he forced him to calm down.

Impatience would only confuse his heart.

"This time, I won't lose so easily to you!"

Ying Jiankong was filled with confidence.

Ding Yue was still looking at him with contempt.

As the wind blew past, the mountain peak where Ding Yue was at was suddenly enveloped by a strong killing intent.

"That's the sword intent of the One Sword technique of Nine Swords Mountain!"

Liu Pingfeng's expression became solemn.

"Sword intent!"

The Evil King's expression was solemn as well.

Ying Jiankong was condensing his sword intent in preparation to display the One Sword technique, which was Nine Swords Mountain's signature technique!

One Sword technique!

After using it, his entire body would enter a state of weakness, and he would need to rest for a period of time to recover.

However, in return, this sword was extremely powerful!

In the same realm, no one had been able to block the One Sword technique of Nine Swords Mountain!

Moreover, Ying Jiankong was constantly gathering power and condensing sword intent.

The longer he did, the greater the power of this sword.

This was not the One Sword technique that was normally used in combat.

This was its true maximum strength.

Ying Jiankong was gathering his power and condensing his sword intent.

On the other hand, Ding Yue was still holding his treasured sword and standing proudly there with a disdainful attitude.

Judging from their attitude toward the duel, it was obvious who was the superior one!

The expression of the Nine Swords Mountain elder was extremely grave. Looking at Ding Yue's disdainful attitude, his heart began to sink.

Even if Ying Jiankong used the One Sword technique, he might not be able to beat Ding Yue.

Victory and defeat seemed to have been decided.

There was no suspense left in this fight.

What was left to see was whether Ying Jiankong's One Sword technique could injure Ding Yue.

He would use this strike to determine Ding Yue's actual strength.

If he could kill him…

The Nine Swords Mountain elder would not miss that golden opportunity to attack. How could an expelled disciple not harbor hatred toward Nine Swords Mountain?

…

Liu Pingfeng became more and more determined to get Ding Yue to join the Great Qian Dynasty.

The stronger Ding Yue was, the more beneficial he would be for the Great Qian Dynasty if they managed to rope him in.

With Ding Yue holding down Nine Swords Mountain, the Great Qian Dynasty would be able to encroach on the Great Qin Dynasty's territory.

Without the support of Nine Swords Mountain, Qin Keyun alone would not be able to monitor such a large territory.

Over on the Nine Swords Mountain's peak, a beautiful woman was staring at Ding Yue with hatred!

It was all his fault for making brother Jiankong lose his composure and damaging his reputation!

What a hateful fellow!

Similarly, over on the Heavenly Cauldron Mountain's peak, the purple-clothed woman beside the red-bearded old man had an anxious expression on her face.

"Grandfather, can brother Jiankong snatch victory from the jaws of defeat?"

The red-bearded old man's expression was solemn. Although he really wanted to comfort his granddaughter, no matter how he looked at it, Ying Jiankong had no chance of winning.

In fact, it was likely that his attack would not even threaten Ding Yue.

The latter was too calm. He still held the treasured sword in his arms, looking infinitely arrogant and disdainful.

Without strength, only a fool would be so arrogant to face Ying Jiankong's One Sword technique like that.

Since he was clearly not a fool, it meant that he had absolute confidence!

Before Ding Yue appeared, he had believed his grandson-in-law to be the number one expert of the younger generation in the Southern Region.

After Ding Yue appeared, Ying Jiankong's fame seemed to dim.

Ying Jiankong had gathered his power to its peak state. His sword intent was fully condensed, causing his entire body to emit a sharp sword intent.

Cracks appeared on the soil and rocks around him as the sword intent eroded the ground under his feet.

"Ding Yue, how dare you belittle me! You will pay the price for your arrogance!"

Ying Jiankong raised his sword and pointed. Surging sword intent and aura instantly gathered on the tip of his sword.

His sword seemed to be capable of splitting the world apart.

The half-step emperor realm experts present all had solemn expressions.

The One Sword technique of Nine Swords Mountain was too powerful.

Not to mention that Ying Jiankong had gathered his power for so long and condensed his sword intent into the sword, allowing it to reach the pinnacle of its strength.

Regardless of whether it was Liu Pingfeng or the Evil King, both knew that it would not be easy to receive this sword strike.

They might even be slightly injured.

Ying Jiankong was at the ninth level of the truth realm, yet his One Sword technique was already this powerful.

How powerful would the Nine Swords Mountain's elder, who was at the half-emperor realm, be?

Everyone stared at Ding Yue.

They wanted to see how he would receive this sword strike.

The purple-clothed woman clenched her fists and stared at Ding Yue. She kept shouting in her heart, "Stab him to death! Stab him to death! Brother Jiankong is the most powerful!"

Ding Yue's childhood sweetheart was the same. She prayed that Ding Yue would be stabbed to death!

Han Yingmeng's eyes widened. At this moment, her feelings were a little complicated. She hoped that Ding Yue would be stabbed to death, but she also did not want Ying Jiankong to win.

At the moment, no one could take their eyes off that unparalleled sword strike that seemed to split the world.

Clang!

The sound of the sword swinging down resounded through the world.

Ding Yue made his move.

Endless killing intent seemingly filled the world.

Among the surrounding warriors, those below the sixth level of the truth realm were all shocked. They formed a spiritual power shield to protect their bodies.

It started to rain!

Sword rain!

Small swords that were like raindrops fell down.

The faces of all the experienced warriors changed at this moment!

Sword intent manifestation!

This was the rumored sword intent manifestation!

What kind of Sword Dao realm was this?

It was rumored that every sword cultivator who had achieved sword intent manifestation was an invincible existence in the same realm.

Throughout the history of the Southern Region, only records existed of an expert who had achieved sword intent manifestation.

That was the founding ancestor of Nine Swords Mountain, a peerless expert who shook the entire Northern Zone!

After countless years, there was now someone else from the Southern Region who had comprehended the realm of sword intent manifestation. While he had also been a disciple of Nine Swords Mountain, he had been expelled!

Ding Yue had already sheathed his sword.

He still held his longsword in his arms, while Ying Jiankong knelt on one knee. The latter's longsword was on the ground, propping up his body to prevent him from falling down.

He had lost again!

He had lost so decisively too!

Blood gushed out from his shoulder. The spot where he was injured was the exact spot where Ding Yue had stabbed him during their first bout. It was not even a centimeter off.

The surroundings were completely silent.

The experts were shocked by Ding Yue's sword intent manifestation. Others were shocked by how Ying Jiankong, who had used the One Sword technique of Nine Swords Mountain, was still defeated so easily.

It was as if Ying Jiankong had fallen before Ding Yue had even used his strength.

Their strengths were on completely different levels.

The facial expression of the Nine Swords Mountain elder was unprecedentedly solemn. It was the first time since Nine Swords Mountain was founded that they had been defeated so easily.

Moreover, they had been defeated by their very own expelled disciple!

A top-notch Heaven's blessed had been defeated by an expelled disciple!.

It was as if they had been ruthlessly slapped on the face.

He really wanted to make a move and get rid of this great calamity, Ding Yue.

However, he was not confident!

The young man had achieved sword intent manifestation!

From the beginning to the end, Ding Yue seemed composed and relaxed. He had defeated Ying Jiankong with one strike.

No one knew just how strong he was.

If Ding Yue continued to oppose Nine Swords Mountain, then they would be finished.

At this moment, he was considering whether he could persuade Ding Yue to return to Nine Swords Mountain. However, given the latter's current Sword Dao, would he still need the support of the Nine Swords Mountain?

Moreover, what kind of figure was the master behind Ding Yue?

Ding Yue looked at Ying Jiankong, whose face was as pale as a sheet, and felt very comfortable.

His pride had been trampled on, right?

His heart was in turmoil, right?

Did he feel ashamed to lose to him, an expelled disciple of Nine Swords Mountain?

"Do you know why you lost?"

Ding Yue looked down at him from above.

Ying Jiankong's lips twitched, but he did not say anything.

"Because, I have already broken through to the second out of three stages of the way of the sword, yet you haven't even broken through the first stage. You were not worthy of being my opponent from the beginning!"

Ding Yue said proudly.

Ying Jiankong raised his head and asked, "What are the three stages of the way of the sword?"

All the experts, especially those from Nine Swords Mountain, were all riled up. They wanted to know what the three stages of the way of the sword principle were.

Why had they never heard of the three stages of the way of the sword?

Ding Yue had only broken through to the second stage, yet his sword intent had already transformed. If he could break through to the third stage, what realm would his Sword Dao reach?

"Listen well! The first stage of the way of the sword is to forget about your sweetheart!" Ding Yue said seriously.

1

Ying Jiankong: "…"

Everyone: "…"

"Only by forgetting your sweetheart can you pass the first stage and tread upon the path of the Supreme Sword."

Ding Yue said with a serious expression.

"Bullsh*t!"

1

The purple-clothed woman was furious.

The red-bearded old man was also so angry that his beard trembled. He glared furiously at Ding Yue.

If Ying Jiankong forgot his sweetheart, would that not mean that he would dump his granddaughter?

That would be even worse!

Chapter 114: Heaven-Spying Mirror

"Foolish!"

Ding Yue snorted coldly. He did not pay any attention to the purple-clothed woman's rage, nor the red-bearded old man's murderous gaze.

He lowered his head to look at Ying Jiankong and said, "This is the gap between you and me. If you want to catch up with my pace, you should first start by breaking through to the first stage."

Ying Jiankong was furious.

He did not believe Ding Yue's words at all. He felt that Ding Yue was teasing him.

What? Forget about his sweetheart? That was simply ridiculous.

"Ding Yue, if you want to kill me, then kill me. Don't even think about disturbing my sword heart!"

Ding Yue sneered and said, "Kill you? Are you even worthy of dying by my blade?"

Sword intent surged forth from his body into the sky. In that instant, Ding Yue looked like a peerless divine sword that stood between Heaven and Earth.

The edge of the sword was sharp and invincible!

Everyone's expression changed in shock!

What terrifying sword intent!

What realm had this young man's Sword Dao reached?

It even made people suspect that he had the strength to go against the empires and slaughter them!

"I, Ding Yue, am someone who wants to slaughter gods. You are merely a small stepping stone. You are not worthy of my attention!"

Ding Yue's arrogant voice resounded throughout the surroundings.

Everyone fell silent. Ying Jiankong slumped to the ground and lost all his strength.

He no longer had any desire to fight for supremacy.

From today onwards, Ding Yue had become a huge mountain that he would never be able to climb in his heart.

Chu Xuan sat in the courtyard and fiddled with the Myriad Heavenly Mirror. He did not know how Ding Yue was doing.

It was a pity that he was unable to see what was going on at the Bai Sheng Mountain ruin.

Did Ding Yue kill everyone?

Did he force Nine Swords Mountain to suffer a humiliating defeat?

Why had he not triggered the system's reward yet?

If only there was a treasure that allowed him to watch these events in real-time.

It was a pity that the Myriad Heavenly Mirror's marks had already been used up. Otherwise, if he had placed one on Ding Yue's body, he would be able to watch.

Although it had a limited range of view, it was still a live broadcast.

As Chu Xuan was sighing, the system's notification suddenly rang out in his head.

"You did not leave seclusion, yet your disciple Ding Yue crushed a top-notch Heaven's blessed in front of the Bai Sheng Mountain ruin with a single sword strike, shocking everyone present. You have been rewarded with the Heaven-spying Mirror."

The system reward had really been triggered.

Chu Xuan was overjoyed. His guess was right. His disciples' outstanding achievements were a testament to his excellent teachings, and could also trigger the system's reward.

He immediately examined the reward.

"The Heaven-spying Mirror can spy on all things in the world, track all things, ignoring space and distance…"

The Heaven-spying mirror was a very powerful treasure.

Unlike the Myriad Heavenly Mirror, the Heaven-spying Mirror only allowed him to spy on and track others; it could not transmit items.

It could also spy on multiple places and targets at the same time, like watching multiple live broadcasts.

There were two main ways to use the Heavenly Mirror. The first was for him to take the initiative to spy on someone or some place. The prerequisite was that he had to know the direction and approximate distance of the target. Moreover, the further away the target was, the greater the consumption of his spiritual power.

Spying on multiple targets at the same time would undoubtedly consume a huge amount of spiritual power.

The second way was to leave a mark on an object or creature, or to capture a wisp of its aura and use it as a mark to trace the target and spy on it.

This method of spying completely ignored space and distance, and also consumed less energy.

It would not consume more energy even if the target was further away.

Its limitation was that he had to leave a mark on the object or creature, or capture a strand of its aura.

Both methods had their pros and cons. Even so, the Heaven-spying Mirror was still an extremely powerful treasure.

Chu Xuan took out the Heaven-spying Mirror.

He began to fiddle around with it, trying to find out if he could observe what was going on at Bai Sheng Mountain.

"Which direction is Bai Sheng Mountain in? How far away is it?"

There was no mark there, nor did he have a strand of Ding Yue's aura handy. As such, Chu Xuan could only use the first method to track down Bai Sheng Mountain.

He picked up the communication talisman and contacted Bao Hongyan, asking her about the direction and approximate distance of Bai Sheng Mountain from his courtyard.

Bao Hongyan was the person that Chu Xuan focused on nurturing. In the future, she would be in charge of the Black Moon Tower in the Southern Region.

The talent and aptitude level of Lao Gui Tai was too useless. He was not worth nurturing at all.

Chu Xuan would not spend resources to improve his talent.

The reason why Lao Gui Tai was sent to the Southern Region was probably because he was useless.

Bao Hongyan quickly provided Chu Xuan with the general direction and distance of Bai Sheng Mountain. She was extremely efficient.

This was also one of the reasons why Chu Xuan valued her over the other possible candidates.

Bao Hongyan's cultivation had already reached the seventh level of the truth realm. Her strength was growing rapidly.

At this moment, she was wholeheartedly working for Chu Xuan. She no longer had any sense of belonging to Black Moon Tower.

After all, Chu Xuan was the reason why her cultivation could progress at such a rapid speed.

After obtaining the general direction and distance of Bai Sheng Mountain, Chu Xuan injected his spiritual power into the Heaven-spying Mirror and directed it toward Bai Sheng Mountain's ruin.

After some time, an image appeared.

At first glance, Chu Xuan thought he was looking at a mirage.

After taking a closer look, he realized that this was what Bai Sheng Mountain's ruin looked like as it gradually emerged from the spatial crack.

Since the ruin had not completely re-emerged, it looked just like a mirage.

Adjusting the direction of the image, a mountain in front of the Bai Sheng Mountain ruin appeared in the image. Then, he spotted Ding Yue, who had occupied that mountain.

A young man was lying on the ground not far away from Ding Yue.

That was probably Ding Yue's enemy, the top-notch genius of Nine Swords Mountain.

He had already reached the ninth level of the truth realm at the age of 50. He was indeed talented and had to be very strong.

Unfortunately, he could not compare to Ding Yue. He was destined to become Ding Yue's stepping stone.

Chu Xuan then heard Ding Yue's words…

His statement was very arrogant. He was talking about killing gods.

Chu Xuan's mouth twitched. The Southern Region probably did not have any hidden Deity realm experts, right?

If there were any, and if they heard those words, what if that expert appeared to kill Ding Yue?

It might even implicate him.

However, thinking of the fact that Ding Yue was the son of fate of the Southern Region, Chu Xuan felt that he should not have such bad luck.

Moreover, the Deity realm was something that only existed in legends. How could one be hidden in a small corner of the continent like the Southern Region.

Ding Yue looked over toward Nine Swords Mountain's peak and said proudly, "Throughout Nine Swords Mountain's history, the only person who can be considered an expert is the founder of Nine Swords Mountain. The rest are not worthy of my attention!"

F*ck! He's too f*cking arrogant!

All of the experts present were speechless.

They looked at the Nine Swords Mountain elder and started to gloat.

"Such an arrogant disciple. It's a pity if he's not a heretic cultivator!"

The Evil King Sighed.

Go to hell!

Everyone was speechless. Which heretic cultivator was as arrogant as Ding Yue?

Of all the geniuses of the evil imperial court, were there any who dared to say that only the founder of Nine Swords Mountain was worthy of their attention?

The Nine Swords Mountain elder stared at Ding Yue coldly with a gloomy face. "Arrogant b*stard!"

"Old man, come over here and fight me if you don't like my words. If I can't defeat you with three strikes. I, Ding Yue, will call you my father!"

Ding Yue was not afraid at all. So what if the other party was a half-step emperor realm expert?

He was not afraid!

He had cultivated the Firmament Sword body, and the Heaven-reaching Sword technique was extremely powerful. It could even kill a half-step Emperor realm expert!

The so-called half-step Emperor realm was also, in the end, still part of thetruth realm. As long as the other party had not truly reached the Emperor realm, he was not afraid at all.

Everyone was speechless. Ding Yue was a bit of a b*stard and quite shameless.

He did not have the demeanor of a peerless sword cultivator at all.

The Nine Swords Mountain elder was so angry that his face turned green, but he did not make a move in the end.

He was not confident at all!

He might even be defeated.

The opening of Bai Sheng Mountain's ruin was imminent. Nine Swords Mountain could not afford to lose out on the opportunity to enter it.

Chapter 115: Old Cur, Don't You Even Dare To Think About Messing With My Sword Heart

"Coward!"

Ding Yue looked at the other party with disdain.

The elder's face was gloomy, and he did not say anything in response.

"Nine Swords Mountain has really declined. They expelled a peerless genius and chased him out of the sect. Instead, they wholeheartedly nurtured a good-for-nothing piece of trash. How pathetic!"

Liu Pingfeng added insult to injury while also trying to curry favor with Ding Yue.

Over on Nine Swords Mountain's side, a woman had come over and helped Ying Jiankong up.

She looked at Ding Yue with hatred.

"Ding Yue, you've gone too far!"

"Get lost!"

Ding Yue cursed, "How have I gone too far? I've already shown mercy by not breaking your man's third leg."

"What are you looking at? I'm someone beyond your reach!"

The woman was extremely angry. "You!"

She helped Ying Jiankong up and returned to the Nine Swords Mountain's peak.

The purple-robed woman quickly came over to Ying Jiankong's side and took out some medicinal pills to treat his injuries. She encouraged him at the same time.

"Brother Jiankong, don't be discouraged. It's just a temporary setback. He was just a little lucky and obtained some fortuitous encounters!"

"As long as you obtain some opportunities in Bai Sheng Mountain's ruin, you will definitely surpass him."

Seeing Ying Jiankong surrounded by beauties, Ding Yue was not envious at all. On the contrary, he had a look of disdain on his face.

"Ying Jiankong, you are hopeless. Women will only affect the speed at which you draw your sword. You will never be able to catch up to me."

The women beside Ying Jiankong all glared at him angrily.

Ding Yue had gone too far!

Han Yingmeng's beautiful eyes were suffused with a strange light. Her posture was graceful as flower petals floated around her.

She was like a fairy that walked out of a garden.

She was devastatingly beautiful.

This scene charmed many of the cultivators present.

She walked over step by step, as if she was dancing in the air. She arrived at the mountain peak where Ding Yue was at.

"Brother Ding Yue…"

Her voice was soft and charming.

"Scram! Woman, stay away from me!"

Unexpectedly, Ding Yue did not hold back at all and directly shouted at her angrily.

Han Yingmeng almost died from anger.

B*stard! B*stard!

She, Han Yingmeng, was always the center of attention wherever she went. Who had ever berated her like this?

No one!

However, Ding Yue had berated her repeatedly and had gone too far!

"You! I wish you an early death!"

Han Yingmeng returned to her own mountain peak in a huff.

The corners of Chu Xuan's mouth twitched. Did he go too far in deceiving Ding Yue? If this continued, this fellow was destined to live alone!

According to the normal plotline development of a son of fate, this Holy Maiden of the Floating Flower Pavilion should have become one of his lovers or admirers, right?

Yet, she had been driven mad by Ding Yue.

"Good. I admire geniuses like Brother Ding Yue. He doesn't bow down to women. He can just grab them and have fun when he wants to. It's a waste of time to talk about love."

The Evil King praised him greatly.

The experts of the Floating Flower Pavilion and the other female cultivators all glared at the Evil King angrily.

They wanted to find an opportunity to kill him!

The experts of the evil imperial court all had dark expressions.

Their Evil King really had a problem with his brain. F*ck! He directly offended all of the female experts present.

He was not like this in the past.

He was very shrewd and cunning.

Why had he become a retard now?

The future of the evil imperial court hung in the balance!

"Brother Ding Yue, my evil imperial court needs law enforcers like you. Why don't you come to my evil imperial court to enforce the law and uphold justice!"

The Evil King tried to recruit Ding Yue.

The evil cultivators of the evil imperial court felt their hearts run cold.

Crazy!

The Evil King was really crazy.

He was actually trying to recruit Ding Yue to uphold justice in the evil imperial court?

F*ck! When did justice ever become a thing in our evil imperial court?

They were an empire of heretic cultivators! Justice was not supposed to even be part of our vocabulary!

The corners of the mouths of the other experts twitched. The Evil King might really have a problem with his brain.

Otherwise, how could he, a heretic cultivator, invite Ding Yue to uphold justice?

F*ck! Was he not afraid of Ding Yue killing all of the experts of the evil imperial court?

Liu Pingfeng had thought so at the beginning but, suddenly, he realized that something was wrong.

The Evil King was indeed cunning!

He had actually used the banner of justice to rope Ding Yue into becoming an expert of the evil imperial court.

Ding Yue was probably more valuable than all ten evil commanders put together.

Thinking this, Liu Pingfeng could not sit still.

He immediately said, "Brother Ding Yue, I am the Prime Minister of the Great Qian Dynasty. Why don't you come over to the Great Qian Dynasty instead?"

Liu Pingfeng then immediately offered a condition that showed how much he valued Ding Yue and how much the Great Qian Dynasty respected Ding Yue.

"Brother Ding Yue, the little princess of the Great Qian Dynasty is extremely beautiful and talented. In terms of looks, she is even more beautiful than Holy Maiden Han Yingmeng."

"As long as Brother Ding Yue joins the Great Qian Dynasty, the king is willing to wed the little princess to you."

"Also, I have a little daughter who is also extremely beautiful. Her dancing skills are even better than Holy Maiden Han Yingmeng's, and she is willing to do anything for Brother Ding Yue. In addition, your status will be no lower than mine."

"Wouldn't it be wonderful to have two beauties who are even better than Saintess Han Yingmeng?"

"Also, if you have any requests, feel free to state them. Be it spirit stones, pills, treasures, or even emperor-level weapons."

"Brother Ding Yue, as long as you join the Great Qian Dynasty, you can ask for anything."

Liu Pingfeng was very confident that no one could reject such a generous offer.

He already offered beauties and status.

How many people could reject such an offer?

The experts present were all shocked by Liu Pingfeng's offer.

Especially the part where he wanted to marry his daughter to Ding Yue and said that the latter's status would be no lower than his. This implied that, as long as Ding Yue agreed to join the Great Qian Dynasty, his status would be equal or greater than the Prime Minister's!

The expressions of those from Nine Swords Mountain were extremely ugly.

Qin Changfang was extremely anxious. Once Ding Yue joined the Great Qian Dynasty, he would be able to restrain a large portion of the experts from Nine Swords Mountain. The Great Qin Dynasty would then face the gradual encroachment of the Great Qian Dynasty into their territory.

The Great Qin Dynasty relied on Nine Swords Mountain to restrain the experts from the Great Qian Dynasty.

No matter how strong Qin Keyun was, she could not destroy the Great Qian Dynasty. How could she defend such a large territory by herself?

He wanted to rope Ding Yue into the Great Qin Dynasty, but they themselves were allies with Nine Swords Mountain, and Ding Yue was an expelled disciple of Nine Swords Mountain.

No matter what, he would not choose the Great Qin Dynasty.

The red-bearded elder did not say anything. His granddaughter was Ying Jiankong's fiancée, so how could he rope in Ding Yue?

Han Yingmeng was furious and glared at Liu Pingfeng. B*stard, you dared to say that your daughter can dance better than me, and the little princess of the Great Qian Dynasty is prettier than me!

Everyone was taking turns to step on her dignity today. Did they all think that she had a good temper?

Ding Yue looked at Liu Pingfeng, and his face gradually darkened.

Marry the princess to him?

Marry his daughter to him?

What a sinister person!

He actually intended to use beauty to seduce him and mess up his sword heart, turning him into a person who chased after beauties.

If he married his daughter and the little princess, should he stand up for them whenever something happened?

How could he cultivate the Sword Dao if they kept pestering him all day?

They would even give birth to children, which would further restrain him. People might even use them to blackmail him.

How could he break through the three stages of the way of the sword when he was tied down by such bonds in his heart?

He remembered his master's teachings clearly. If he had no woman in his heart, he could draw his sword and slay gods!

The more Ding Yue thought about it, the more he felt that Liu Pingfeng was being sinister and cunning. He claimed that he wanted to rope him in but, in fact, this man wanted to use beauties to mess with his sword heart.

He wanted to destroy his ambition of reaching the peak of Sword Dao!

He immediately snorted and said angrily, "Old cur, don't even think of messing with my sword heart!"

"I, Ding Yue, only have the Dao of Sword in my heart! If you want to use beauties to mess with my sword heart, dream on!"

"Old cur, kist give up. Don't ever think of messing with my sword heart!"

Ding Yue said angrily.

Liu Pingfeng was momentarily stunned, after which he was consumed by rage!
