Chapter 355 – Heavy Blade Defeats Three Sword Cultivators in a Row

Ye Kuang: “Senior Brothers, this junior has gone through great pains for today’s visit. I specially requested a Grand Master to forge this Heavy Edge, and I’ve named ‘her’ Starshine!”

As he spoke, he couldn’t resist caressing the three-foot-long blade, which strikingly reflected the lingering glow of the morning sun, revealing a sharp, gleaming edge.

At that moment, seeing the entire scene fall into complete silence, Ye Kuang couldn’t help but continue his introduction: “This scabbard is as sharp as the blade, much like myself. With that, I boldly declare: if any among you can force this junior to draw this sword, I will willingly descend the mountain and leave on my knees!”

No sooner had he spoken than he suddenly struck out with his palm, stirring up a sky-shaking sword resonance that remarkably lingered without cease.

Hearing this, Daoist Qianming couldn’t help but laugh heartily: “What a fine sword!”

While speaking, Daoist Qianming then looked towards the hundreds present and meaningfully said: “Since he has made such a declaration, if we don’t accept the challenge, who knows how the world will view us of Mount Shu!”Since that’s the case, you may go and test him.”)

Shing! Shing! Shing!

In an instant, as Daoist Qianming’s words fell, countless sounds of blades being drawn connected into a continuous chorus, echoing incessantly.

At a glance, everyone wore stern expressions, their eagerness evident merely from the looks in their eyes.

It was only at this moment that Ye Kuang finally revealed a playful smile.

Because when experts make their move, their skill becomes immediately apparent.

Regardless of how every Mount Shu Disciple belonged to sword cultivation, merely their current unity of spirit was enough to make countless people secretly apprehensive.

And Ye Kuang was naturally no exception.

His eyes swept across the surroundings, then he suddenly murmured to himself: “That instructor at the back seems like a Dao Inquiry sword cultivator, while the twenty in front are only around the Innate level. This won’t be easy to break through.”

Thinking this, Ye Kuang abruptly held his sword horizontally across his chest and inexplicably sighed: “Will you come one by one, or all together? Feel free to choose.”

“Pfft… pfft… pfft…”

“Ha ha ha, is this kid here to joke around? He really dares to say anything! This is absolutely hilarious. Boy, have you not seen the current situation clearly?”

“I thought this kid had some extraordinary skills, but it turns out he’s just all talk! Come on, as their Senior Brother, I have the duty to send you down the mountain!”

But who would have thought that upon hearing this, Ye Kuang suddenly moved!

With the force of howling wind and thunder, he burst into action—nothing more than a horizontal flash of sword light before their eyes.

“Holy crap! Don’t you have any martial virtue?”

Little did they know, no sooner said than done!

The one who had previously claimed to be the Senior Brother suddenly stepped forward from the crowd and arrogantly raised his sword to block!

BZZZZ-TOOM!

But who could have imagined that when the two seemingly swift sword edges violently collided, they erupted with earth-shaking thunderous resonance.

“Damn, Senior Brother, are you pretending? Is that kid’s strength really that terrifying?”

“Something’s wrong! There’s something off about that guy’s sword edge!”

“It’s heavy!”

And thus it was understandable that the entire square suddenly erupted with waves of incredulous exclamations, barely able to conceal their mutual shock.

The reason for this was none other than one fact: their Senior Brother’s sword had instantly twisted into a spiral shape.

Even the Senior Brother himself paid the price for his underestimation—vomiting blood wildly as he was sent flying dozens of zhang away, ultimately kneeling on the ground and trembling uncontrollably.It was evident that the man’s tiger-mouth points had already split open.

Ye Kuang: “Next.”

For a moment, his light tone swept through the air, making it easy to imagine the unsightly expressions on the faces of the surrounding crowd.

It was as if he had struck them physically and then slapped their faces—hard and resounding.

Even Daoist Qianming, their mentor standing behind them, couldn’t help but change his expression, demanding, “Young man, just how heavy is that sword of yours?”

Hearing this, Ye Kuang strode forward and suddenly said with a pained expression, “Deep-Sea Dark Iron, weighing two hundred jin! This cost me five million!”

“What? Five million!”

“Are you kidding? How could a mere piece of scrap metal be worth a fortune? Let me test it!”

“Yu Qiu, be careful!”

But before Daoist Qianming’s words had fully left his mouth, Yu Qiu had already darted out with his movement technique.

Like a white steed flashing past a crack, his speed was astonishingly fast.

As for Ye Kuang, it was unclear what mindset he held, but he remained completely unmoved.

Just as everyone thought he hadn’t reacted, they suddenly noticed him bending the heavy sword in his hands with both arms.

“Urgh!”

Bang!

Following closely was a loud crash, and the scene that met their eyes was enough to chill one’s heart and gall.

It could be said that although Yu Qiu’s sword hadn’t broken, the internal injuries he suffered were even more severe. Not only did he follow in his Senior Brother’s footsteps, but he also coughed up three sheng of blood.

Hiss, hiss, hiss!

“Damn, just how heavy is that Heavy Edge? How could its rebound alone knock down Senior Brother Yu Qiu?”

“That kid is bizarre. His strength is outrageously powerful too.”

“Senior Brother, this…”

Ye Kuang: “Tsk, next…”

“I’ll go!”

“Eldest Senior Brother, how can we trouble you to step in? I’ll handle this and be right back…”

“Second Senior Brother, let this Junior Brother take care of it.”

“Shao Jun!!!” Seeing this, Daoist Qianming clearly found it hard to remain calm and coldly shouted, “You go!”

At the same time, Ye Kuang, seeing another Innate realm expert approaching, forcefully tossed the Heavy Edge into the air with both hands.

Shao Jun, who was none other than the Eldest Senior Brother of Mount Shu, saw this and fixed a cold gaze on him before thrusting his sword straight forward.

Little did he know, this was exactly the moment Ye Kuang had been waiting for.

Bang!

In the next instant, Ye Kuang stomped the ground fiercely and leaped directly into the air.

Not only did he swiftly evade the incoming sword strike, but he also firmly caught the Heavy Edge mid-air and brought it down with a slash toward Luo Wuya!

At that moment, Shao Jun happened to look up, his entire being as if ignited with ferocity, staking everything on this one move.

Mount Shu Sword, sweeping through the clouds.

“Unbridled as a heavenly steed. Break!”

“Uhahaha…” Unexpectedly, Ye Kuang suddenly burst into laughter, making his slashing momentum grow even more violent.

Clang!

Bang, bang, bang!

The all-too-familiar scene once again unfolded before everyone’s eyes, accompanied by an overwhelming wave of chilling gasps.

Shao Jun was not only forced to one knee, his hands trembling uncontrollably, but his three-foot green blade had shattered into pieces on the ground, and he spat out mouthfuls of fresh blood.

Yet that wasn’t the most exaggerated part. The ground within three zhang seemed unable to withstand the immense force from earlier, cracking apart like tofu as it fulfilled its final duty.

Only then did Ye Kuang slowly withdraw the Heavy Edge, his face wearing an utterly punchable expression.

In contrast, Shao Jun, freed from the weight on his shoulders, gasped for breath, clearly still in disbelief.

Ye Kuang: “That makes three!”In an instant, Daoist Qianming couldn’t help but feel secretly astonished by this.

Not to mention the group of Mount Shu disciples, who had all become intensely agitated.

One must understand that Mount Shu disciples had always prided themselves on their sword techniques being unparalleled in the martial world. Yet now, someone had actually come to their doorstep wielding a heavy sword to challenge them!

Although they were reluctant to believe that three Senior Brothers had been defeated consecutively, they weren’t fools either.

If one Senior Brother’s defeat could be attributed to underestimating the opponent, could the defeat of two Senior Brothers still be considered mere underestimation?

And now, there were three in total!

Ye Kuang: “Who’s next?”

Daoist Qianming: “…”

Mount Shu disciples: “…”

This scene could be described as: the Mount Shu disciples stepped forward to test the waters, while Ye Kuang acted with decisive finality.
