Chapter 540: Chapter 294: The Sword Dao Rules the World
Silence!
The entire arena fell into shocking silence, everyone was stunned.
Yu Changfeng unleashed his secret technique, transforming into a bloody sword light, and targeted Xu Yan.
An aggressive, swift, and imposing sword attack. Even a late-stage Refining God Heavenly Man, if not killed, would be severely injured.
However, when all eyes were focused on Xu Yan, looking forward to see how he would counter this attack, they watched in terror as Yu Changfeng, who was closing in on Xu Yan, mysteriously dissolve into nothingness.
And Xu Yan, from start to finish, remained rooted to the spot, his posture didn't even change, and his sword was never unsheathed!
In just a split second, Yu Changfeng was dead!
Turned into ash and vanished.
Thump!
The surrounding martial artists were all shocked at this moment.
What kind of power does Xu Yan possess? What kind of martial arts technique did he use?
"You are so wicked, not even sparing the corpse of my Sword Sect disciple, I won't let you go today!"
The Sword Sect elder drew his sword, seething with anger.
Chang Daniu was invigorated, finally it was his turn to step in. The Spirit Sect had broken the rules, there should be an explanation, right?
Although Xu Yan was not a genius of the All Ages Alliance, the rules of the geniuses' contest were not limited to the Alliance and the Spirit Sect, it even included all loose cultivators.
Xu Yan pondered for a moment, then asked, "Is there a rule that says you must leave a body behind after killing a challenger?"
"There is no such rule, life and death are self-determined, it is not said that you cannot turn a body into ashes!"
Before the Sword Sect elder could respond, Chang Daniu had already roared sharply.
Xu Yan nodded, that's good, he hadn't broken any rules.
Although rules are made to be broken, he has just started his journey in the Ling Domain, keeping a low profile for now wouldn't hurt.
Otherwise, if other people refuse to fight later, that would be troublesome.
He turned to the furious Sword Sect elder, "Leaving a corpse is too much of a hassle, it also pollutes the environment, I, Xu Yan, have always cared for the environment, therefore I prefer to let the enemy return to dust!"
Everybody: ...
He talked about turning the body to ashes as if it was a matter of high moral standing, a first for them all.
The Sword Sect elder was furious, he wanted to fight but Chang Daniu was watching closely, if he made a move it would break the rules and attract disaster to the Sword Sect.
For this geniuses' contest, the upper sect had deliberately issued a command not to violate the rules, unless the All Ages Alliance violates them first!
Xu Yan glanced at the Sword Sect elder, as a late-stage Refining God Heavenly Man, he was much stronger than Zhu Liang, a Refining God. However, in Xu Yan's eyes, it didn't mean much.
Especially because the elder's cultivation was rooted in Sword Dao.
"I know you want to make a move, so I'll allow you to do so. Let's have a go."
Xu Yan casually spoke.
"You are the one who said it!"
The Sword Sect elder was overjoyed, as it wouldn't count as a violation of the rules.
Fearing that Xu Yan would go back on his word, he let out a roar and attacked with his sword.
Xu Yan still held his longsword, but this time, facing the Sword Sect elder's attacks, he occasionally altered his position to evade the opponent's fierce striking assaults.
The Sect leader of Sword Sect became more and more gloomy as he watched. This young man's sword dao was bizarre, and it seemed as if he had already seen through the Sword Sect's swordsmanship. Every move, every sword strike, he seemed to find a flaw.
The Sword Sect elder also noticed this, his face darkened, sword strike after sword strike, he attacked fiercely, using all his might.
All of a sudden, he released his secret technique, presenting himself as one with the sword. Swift and fierce, the sense of killing locked onto Xu Yan and attacked fiercely!
Xu Yan snapped his fingers and a sword light emerged from his fingertips.
At this moment, the Sect leader of Sword Sect had a face full of terror!
Splash!
The body of the Sword Sect elder turned into ash and vanished, leaving only a sword falling to the ground.
Xu Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, at this moment he gained further understanding of the Sword Dao, and his gained insights increased a little.
"He was just a bit short of strength."
Xu Yan turned his gaze to the Sect Leader of Sword Sect.
A pinnacle Refining God Heavenly Man, just a step away from cultivating a strand of Heavenly Earth Lingji, his strength far exceeded that of the man from the Red Ming Sect.
He is truly the helm of the top Spirit Sect under Thousand Martial Hall!
Moreover, the Sect leader of Sword Sect had a force of fierce killing Sword Qi about him. Although he hadn't comprehended Sword Intent yet, this Sword Qi was extraordinary.
Concentrated to an extreme, sharp beyond comparison.
If it was any other martial artist who practiced other martial arts techniques, with Xu Yan's current strength, he wouldn't challenge the leader lightly, after all, he was only at the Perfect Divine Intent State.
However, since the leader of Sword Sect practiced Sword Dao, there was no fear.
He had already reached the small success level of Heart Sword Realm, no matter how strong the Sect Leader's Sword Dao was, he could fully understand his swordsmanship, he could identify the flaws in his Sword Dao.
More importantly, he could even control the opponent's sword!
All things in heaven and earth are swords, the enemy's sword is also his sword!
"I know you want to draw your sword, so do it."
Xu Yan said this as he looked at the Sect Leader of the Sword Sect.
"Young man, be careful, he is the Sect Leader of the Sword Sect!"
Chang Daniu was already shocked by Xu Yan's killing of the Sword Sect elder, but he was going to challenge the Sect Leader of Sword Sect?
"Chang Daniu, just manage your Luo State Alliance."
Fan Kaisan scoffed.
"Xu Yan, you are very arrogant. Since you dare to let me draw my sword, it shows your confidence!"
The Sword Sect Sect Leader stepped forward.
With each step he took, his Sword Qi became stronger. Ultimately, a fierce Sword Qi soared a hundred feet into the sky, the killing intent rippling outwards.
With a sword in hand, the killing intent boils!
Xu Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, the Sword Sect Sect Leader's strength was extremely strong, his sword qi sharp and concentrated, he was the first person to achieve such a level that Xu Yan had ever seen.
After a moment of contemplation, he said, "You are the Sword Sect Sect Leader, you've devoted your life to studying the Sword Dao, although you haven't entered the door of the Sword Dao, and you don't even know what the Sword Dao is, but if I don't draw my sword, it would be like insulting you. I, Xu Yan, have always valued my opponents, so you deserve to face my sword."
