Chapter 97: The Shocked Jian Xin
Zhou Yun felt a sharp pain on his scalp, and his face was rippling from the strong wind.
Even before the sword arrived, its aura had already suppressed Zhou Yun! Just by enduring such an aura, Zhou Yun felt as if he was carrying a huge mountain on his shoulders. His feet stomped on the ground, creating terrifying cracks!
“Very powerful! This high-grade spiritual corpse is not something that a middle-grade spiritual corpse can compare with! It can crush a middle-grade spiritual corpse with just one finger!” Zhou Yun’s eyes lit up! He felt that this was great! The more powerful the high-grade spiritual corpse was, the better he could hide his strength!
At the very least, he did not have to worry about accidentally smashing the high-grade spiritual corpse into pieces!
“Roar!” The high-grade spiritual corpse roared. Its body was extremely sturdy and was more than three meters tall! The giant sword in his hand was twice as long as Zhou Yun’s!
Not only that, but Zhou Yun also discovered that the giant sword in the high-grade spiritual corpse’s hand contained a terrifying sword intent!
“Great stage of sword intent! Each of the twenty high-grade spiritual corpses had at least comprehended the great stage of sword intent! And two of them have comprehended the perfection of sword intent!” Zhou Yun secretly cursed him for being abnormal!
Were all the disciples of the Heretic Sect so abnormal a thousand years ago? The great stage of sword intent could be seen everywhere, and there was quite a few who had cultivated the perfection of sword intent!
He originally thought that he had comprehended complete sword intent. Even if he wasn’t unique, he would at least be the brightest one when he appeared. Now, it seemed that he had been thinking too much!
“In that case, I’ll suppress my strength to one-fiftieth of my original strength and try to take on the sword strike lightly! ” Zhou Yun carefully condensed the Fire Sword Intent and raised the Fire Dragon Sword, swinging it at the high-grade spiritual corpse’s blade!
All of this happened in an instant!
Jian Xin only saw the high-grade spiritual corpse stomping its legs and appearing in front of Zhou Yun in the next moment. It roared and waved the huge sword in its hand. Zhou Yun could only clench his teeth and respond in a hurry!
“Junior Brother Zhou Yun, please be fine. Although I don’t know what method you used to break through to the mid-stage foundation establishment, our world has already declined for a thousand years. In this era where spiritual energy is scarce, even if we can face the disciples of the five sects and call ourselves prodigies… But a thousand years ago, existences like us were everywhere.” A trace of pride flashed in Jian Xin’s eyes, but it was soon extinguished by the wind.
“If it was a thousand years ago, we might only be treated like the inner disciples of Heretic Sect. We wouldn’t even be able to see the feet of the direct disciples.” Jian Xin suddenly recalled the past. At that time, he was attacked by the spiritual corpse of a golden core disciple. The two of them fought for three days and three nights before he died of exhaustion!
“Boom!” All of a sudden, a violent explosion was heard between Zhou Yun and the high-grade spiritual corpse’s blade, which pulled Jian Xin back to reality.
Then, Jian Xin saw a scene that left him dumbfounded!
The high-grade spiritual corpse that had a great stage of sword intent was actually sent flying by Zhou Yun’s seemingly soft and weak sword that he had hastily parried!
What Jian Xin found most unbelievable was that the seemingly indestructible giant sword in the high-grade spiritual corpse’s hand was actually cut into two smooth halves!
The aftershock of Zhou Yun’s attack and the remnants of the Fire Sword Qi flew towards the mountain in the distance.
“Crack!” a mountain that was a thousand meters tall was split into two!
The shocking scene stunned the spiritual corpse and Jian Xin who was watching from the side!
Zhou Yun’s battlefield was silent for a moment. Only the souls of the mortals were wailing in low voices.
“This is impossible!” Jian Xin shouted in disbelief!
“This is impossible!” Zhou Yun cried out involuntarily!
“How can this high-grade spiritual corpse be so weak?” Then, the two of them said in unison!
Jian Xin was shocked that the high-grade spiritual corpse was sent flying by Zhou Yun in a single blow. Even the most powerful spiritual sword of a sword cultivator had been cut in half! One must know that the most powerful thing about sword cultivators was the spirit sword they had! The saying ‘where the sword is, where the man is’ was definitely not empty talk!
It could be said that Zhou Yun’s sword attack had killed the high-grade spiritual corpse! This was even more difficult than defeating a high-grade spiritual corpse head-on!
On the other side! Zhou Yun looked at the Fire Dragon Sword in his hand and the corner of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.
He had forgotten that after obtaining the fire essence body, he seemed to have entered the state of being one with the sword with the Fire Dragon Sword! It was a state that was far more powerful than the Perfect Fire Sword Intent!
Although he had used a great deal of his strength in that sword attack, how could a mere great stage of sword intent challenge the stage of man and sword as one?
The moment Zhou Yun’s Fire Dragon Sword came into contact with the other party’s sword blade, his mind subconsciously flashed with the idea of how to defeat the sword in front of him.
Immediately after, his body moved, using skill to overcome force, using four taels to deflect a thousand tons. With just a slight twist of his wrist, the high-grade spiritual corpse that looked like a god was sent flying like a broken bag, much to Zhou Yun’s disbelief!
The seemingly indestructible giant sword was also split into two by Zhou Yun!
“Damn it, why is this high-grade spiritual corpse so weak? I only used so little power, and I didn’t even use my fire essence body. How did he fall?” Zhou Yun gritted his teeth. He felt that these spiritual corpses were not here to court death! They wanted to expose his plan of hiding his strength!
“Roar!” Zhou Yun did not even have the time to complain about the high-grade spiritual corpse’s weakness when another high-grade spiritual corpse roared and charged at him!
Zhou Yun could only turn his attention back to the spiritual corpse in front of him!
This spiritual corpse’s aura was stronger than the high-grade spiritual corpse. Although its body size was not as exaggerated, it was one of the few high-grade spiritual corpses that had comprehended the perfection of sword intent!
“It just so happens that I’ve already understood the power of man and sword as one from the previous sword fight. I won’t use my sword this time. Don’t worry, I won’t kill you in seconds again.” Zhou Yun kept his Fire Dragon Sword back into its scabbard. He only revealed his fists to face the high-grade spiritual corpse that was charging at him!
“Junior Brother Zhou Yun, what are you doing? Quickly take out your sword! I don’t know how you were able to send that high-grade spiritual corpse flying with your sword. However, there are differences between high-grade spiritual corpses! Underestimating the spiritual corpse will cost you your life!” When Jian Xin saw Zhou Yun put away the Fire Dragon Sword, he was terrified!
There were also differences between high-grade spiritual corpses. Spiritual corpses were all very powerful, but only true heaven’s favorites would understand the difference!
It was just like the difference between Jian Xin and Su Lingyun!
Even though Jian Xin and Su Lingyun could easily defeat all the disciples of the five sects, they were still too weak. However, when Su Lingyun faced Jian Xin, she became the one who was abused!
It was because Jian Xin was an innate sword spiritual body!
It was the same for the high-grade spiritual corpse! When Jian Xin saw Zhou Yun’s actions, he really wanted to ask who was the one who taught Zhou Yun how to fight.
Don’t you know that underestimating the enemy is a great taboo between cultivators?
Under Jian Xin’s anxious gaze, Zhou Yun used his fist to meet the overbearing high-grade spiritual corpse with the perfection of sword intent!
