Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Chapter 601 Allow Me To Show You How It's Done

While Ren was walking toward the place he felt his disciple's aura, Ren double-checked if there was any other strong person nearby. After a quick scan of the surrounding area, he found no one but instead found a weird sort of energy hidden deep within the sect. Ren didn't really care as to whatever that weird energy was as long as it didn't bother him he would not bother it.

...

Ren finally saw the battle that was happening, it was between his disciple and a person he did not know. In fact, his disciple was surrounded by several dozen Sword Cultivators.

Fang Mu was facing the strongest among the group and he was already panting and his Qi was fluctuating wildly. Still, Ren saw the smile on Fang Mu's face, seeing that carefree smile despite being surrounded by enemies and only looking at the opponent ahead of him reminded him of himself.

'Hoh, I guess he did truly learn a thing or two from me.'

Despite standing next to them the surrounding Sword Cultivators couldn't sense his presence and even if they look directly at him they wouldn't be able to perceive his existence as his body blended into the shadows.

The Sword Cultivators who were watching their Sect Guardian fight the intruder were amazed by Fang Mu. Despite being dealt numerous critical blows he still kept on standing as if he wasn't hurt. Fang Mu was actually fighting someone two realms higher than him, and even though he wasn't able to get a hit in he was still able to dodge and block some attacks. They all thought that if they were the ones facing Fang Mu they wouldn't be able to win.

It wasn't just the watching Sword Cultivators that were shocked by Fang Mu, even Ma Jun was stunned by Fang Mu's performance. He had tried numerous times to finish the fight, but Fang Mu just kept on going and going. He had heard stories about the Sky Destroying Physique, but seeing it in person it turns out some of the stories were true.

No matter the damage Ma Jun had dealt to Fang Mu it would almost instantly heal, and then there was his strength that went beyond Fang Mu's realm. Still, this was a far cry from the Sky Destroying Physique told in legends.

It was said that the Sky Destroying Physique got its name because the original owner of Physique was able to break the very heavens itself with nothing but his own physical power. A punch from someone with the Sky Destroying Physique could destroy stars and his body was near indestructible. Those were the traits of a person with the Sky Destroying Physique in Legends, but even though Fang Mu's physique was impressive it was nowhere near the original legends.

'Hm, has the mythical physique of their clan diminished over time, is he still immature, or was their physique just an exaggeration.'

While Ma Jun was thinking he noticed that Fang Mu's attack was once again becoming sharper and faster. The excess movements he made at the beginning were now nearly gone. The rate of Fang Mu's improvement in this battle was frightening.

'... This guy might become a problem later on, should I just kill him? His master the Sect Challenger Ren, should have a deeper understanding of the way of the sword... If I allow them to go now, We might lose the title of the Strongest Sword Sect in the East Region...'

A flash of killing intent rose in Ma Jun's heart but it was only for a brief moment as it quickly disappeared.

'No, if we can't keep our title after this kind of a challenge then we truly do not deserve to be called the Strongest, we can't even be worthy of being called Sword Cultivators. Still, I better finish this now.'

Ma Jun parried one of Fang Mu's attacks and then pushed him to the side. Ma Jun's exquisite blue long sword floated beside him and then he took another sword from his storage ring, it was a golden curved sword. The two swords then floated in front of Ma Jun blocking all of Fang Mu's attacks.

This was the kind of technique Ren knew how to do but did not like using, so he did not teach it to Fang Mu. In Ren's mind, the best way to use the sword was with one's own body using techniques like the flying sword technique in battle was not desirable.

Now that Ma Jun summoned his second flying sword Fang Mu was unable to even get close to him. As the battle continued Fang Mu's Sky Devouring Physique continued to heal his wound but his stamina could no longer keep up.

"It's time to end this."

Ma Jun made various hand movements making his two swords attack more aggressively. Fang Mu was now having difficulty keeping up if it was just one sword then he would've been able to do something, but the speed and rhythm of the two swords were too much for him. After a few more moves were exchanged Fang Mu's grip on his sword loosened and it was separated from his hand.

Normally someone in Fang Mu's realm would be able to use the flying sword technique to continue the battle, but since Ren never taught him that technique he did not know how to move his sword in battle using his Qi. Though he did know how to use his sword as a mode of transportation that technique wouldn't help in this situation.

Ma Jun's two swords were now crisscrossed on Fang Mu's neck.

"It's over, you have lost." Once Ma Jun declared his victory he and the others heard someone clapping his hands. Everyone looked at the person clapping and they were all surprised to see Ren. No one had noticed him even come near them but he was already standing beside Fang Mu. Even Ma Jun was unable to detect Ren's arrival.

"That was a good fight my disciple, but you still don't understand the essence of my Formless Sword Style. Allow me to show you how it's done."
