Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 948 One Strike Decided The Outcome

Yun Lintian looked into the newly gained memory in his mind. The sword dance he had just comprehended earlier was called Heaven Piercing Sword Art. It was derived from the Heavenly Sword Divine Art.

Because he had no clue about the Heavenly Sword Divine Art, he could not make a proper judgment between the two. He wasn't sure which one was better, but his intuition told him the Heaven Piercing Sword Art should be more powerful.

"Your name is Lin Yun? Do you want to enter the Heavenly Sword Palace? I can give you a core disciple position." Jian Xu said calmly.

As his words came out, the faces of Jian Ning and the other younger disciples couldn't help becoming unsightly. All of them were core disciples, but they had to go through countless trials and spend a lot of effort to get into this position. Yet, Jian Xu gave Lin Yun the position right away. How could they be happy?

Yun Lintian looked at the old man and said with a smile. "Thank you for your kindness, Supreme Elder, but I have to disappoint you. I have no plan to join any faction at the moment."

Jian Xu and the other elders went silent. They couldn't force Yun Lintian to join. After all, the Heavenly Sword Palace had always been advocating righteousness and fairness. If they did it, the whole world would change their view of them.

"It's fine. Our Heavenly Sword Palace is always welcoming you." Jian Xu nodded slightly and sat back in his seat.

Yun Lintian didn't say anything further and looked at Yang Chen, who happened to wake up and grabbed the six-colored spiritual sword.

"Do you want to try?" Yang Chen slowly stood up and stared at Yun Lintian.

His words immediately aroused everyone's interest. Undoubtedly, both of them were rare geniuses. They wanted to see who was better.

"Sure." Yun Lintian replied calmly and rose into the air.

Yang Chen had also stepped into the air.

"Do you want to go first?" Yun Lintian smiled faintly.

Yang Chen didn't waste a word. His gaze was cold and steely as he extended his hand. He gently swung his spiritual sword down, cutting through the air.

Slice!

Fierce gales howled overhead.

A streak of peerless sword intent swept from the spiritual sword in Yang Chen's hand. In an instant, it was over a hundred meters in the air. It cut toward Yun Lintian, stirring up incomparably sharp, shrieking gales.

Yun Lintian's hair and robe fluttered violently as the gales swept over. His expression was as calm as ever. It was as though he was currently facing a spring breeze.

"Not bad." Yun Lintian merely swung his spiritual rainbow sword gently, producing seven-colored sword intent to shoot forward.

Boom!

The sword intents from both sides collided. It was as if lightning had struck; booms shook the center of the avenue. The aftershock spread out in all directions, and Jian Han quickly activated the formation to protect the participants below.

The onlookers felt the entire space tremble as if there were a sudden earthquake and storm. That attack looked simple, but it was no different from two grand mountains colliding, shaking heaven and earth.

"What a terrifying sword intent!" Yuan Long looked at the scene in awe. Although he knew that Yun Lintian was powerful, he didn't expect him to reach this extent. It was to the point a pure sword practitioner like him felt ashamed.

Meanwhile, Jia Rong stared at Yun Lintian in disappointment. It wasn't because she was disappointed in him; rather, she knew they were people from different worlds. It was impossible for her to be with him.

Far away from the crowd, Xie Jianyu watched the scene with an ugly expression. He was sure he would die under this attack from Yun Lintian without any resistance.

"Told you, brother. You shouldn't make an enemy out of him." Standing on the side, Xie Yue said with a smile.

Her efforts during these past few days finally paid off. She always appeared wherever Yun Lintian went to prevent her useless brother from doing stupid things to him. Otherwise, it was impossible to reconcile with him once his background was revealed.

Yan Yaoting's eyes narrowed slightly. He could see at a glance that Yun Lintian had never practiced any sword art before. Still, the power he displayed earlier amazed him. Yun Lintian's control over the sword was beyond most seasoned sword practitioners, despite his being a newbie.

The same thoughts appeared in Jian Han and the other top figures in the scene. With this attack alone, they could see Yun Lintian was much better in terms of innate talent.

Wind scattered, and both Yang Chen and Yun Lintian didn't move in the slightest, nor were they the least bit injured. The only thing that changed was Yang Chen's clothes, which now rustled in the wind.

"Do you want to continue?" Yun Lintian retracted his sword and asked calmly.

However, no one knew that under his calm appearance, he was deeply shocked in his heart by the sword intents he unleashed.

As a newbie sword practitioner, he was pretty clear about what he could do. Who would have thought that his sword intents were this powerful?

"This is normal," Hongyue's voice resounded in his mind. "Sword practitioners normally demand a lot from body, essence, and soul to bring out the most of their sword profound arts. You, who practice the three things to a high level, naturally have no problem using a sword. Not to mention your monstrous comprehension."

"The only thing you lack right now is experience. Once you gain enough experience, those so-called heavenly geniuses will be nothing but a speck of dust compared to you."

"I see." Yun Lintian was enlightened.

In the past, he always relied on superior profound arts such as the Shadow Step, Dragon Fist, and power from the Beyond Heaven Relics to fight the enemy. He rarely used a pure art of weapon. At most, he would use the White Dragon Spear with the Five Elementals Spear Art. This resulted in him having no clue about the weapon's intent.

Before Yang Chen could make another move, Yan Yaoting suddenly said. "Come back, Chen'er. You're not his opponent."

This statement surprised everyone in the scene. How could Yan Yaoting admit it so easily like this?
