Chapter 2149: 905, how could this sword be defeated?
The sword techniques of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect include the intent of concealing traces, hence they are crowned with the name “All-Encompassing.”
However, across the entire Great Pantheon Plane, the cultivation techniques all manifested in a form that was bold and expansive. Wang Chenlong’s sword strike, majestic in its momentum, seemed daunting to face head-on. Yet, the technique itself was extremely simple.
Great skill does not show off craftsmanship.
The display of power lay entirely within this one sword.
For the strong, there is no need for overly fancy techniques.
In the Great Pantheon Plane where the origin power is extremely stable, sword cultivation is just so—there is no need for intricacy.
This has always been the consensus among all cultivators on the Great Pantheon Plane.
As an expert from the Dao Breaking Realm made his move, the strength of the power summoned by this sword, the stirring power of the Great Dao, caused everyone nearby to pale.
Facing this sword, Han Muye remained impassive, his three-foot-long sword performing a light flick upward.
“Clang—”
The long sword met the sword edge that was descending overhead, and then the long sword vibrated.
Countless clashing sounds echoed, merging into a continuous, resonating hum.
In everyone’s eyes, the overwhelming power of Wang Chenlong’s fierce sword strike was being progressively weakened.
By the time the sword edge fell within three feet of Han Muye, it had become so feeble that anyone felt they could receive the strike.
“Clang—”
The long swords clashed.
As the edges of both swords touched, Han Muye’s expression remained calm, while Wang Chenlong’s eyes brimmed with killing intent and disbelief.
He, being from the Dao Breaking Realm, harnessing a force in his long sword that was more than a hundred times greater than his opponent’s.
Yet, how could such overpowering force be resisted?
“This is from within the Rainbow Encompassing Sword Technique, the ‘Cloud Wave Triple Stack,'” said Wang Yun, who stood in front of Zhang Mingyuan, his eyes wide as he muttered to himself.
“No, this isn’t the Cloud Wave Triple Stack.”
“This is, Rolling Clouds, a hundred layers of Rolling Clouds…”
The Cloud Wave Triple Stack was a technique designed to emulate the colliding force of waves of clouds, which, though seemingly massive, are actually illusory. By each successive clash, the impact between illusion and reality disperses layers of force.
Three stacked waves of clouds were already enough to dissipate a mountainous force into nothing.
At this moment, the sword technique displayed by Han Muye involved a hundred layers of Rolling Clouds stacked upon one another, with a defensive power able to suppress a hundredfold.
“I refuse to believe you can take another sword strike!” Wang Chenlong’s face turned red with exertion, the sword edge in his hand trembled as he channeled all his heavy blood essence into it.
The sword edge struck down once again.
This time, the grand resonance of the strike was even more sonorous than before.
Such a sword strike was among the most profound displays of power within the Dao Breaking Realm.
Not more than ten in the entire All-Encompassing Sword Sect could receive this sword strike.
Just the grand reverberation alone made those hidden figures in the distance reveal a trace of solemnity in their expressions.
“The All-Encompassing Sword Sect does possess some strength…”
“This sword strike is that of a formidable presence within a radius of tens of thousands of miles.”
In the world of cultivation, only strength can earn the respect of others.
Wang Chenlong’s sword strike was fitting of his status as a law enforcement elder of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect,
The power of the Great Dao called upon by the sword edge also did justice to his identity as a Dao Breaking expert.
“Hum—”
The sword edge, summoning the power of the Great Dao, immediately imprisoned all within a hundred yards—stones, plants, and even the bodies of all the people were locked in place.
Zhang Mingyuan and Yu Shaogang felt as if their bones and muscles might shatter.
At this moment, they could no longer muster any strength to resist; should Han Muye in front of them be defeated, their bodies too would be cleaved by this sword strike.
Wang Chenlong had never intended to give them a way out.
Everyone’s gaze was now affixed on the sword in Han Muye’s hand.
Could he defend against this sword strike?
Han Muye raised his sword once again.
This time, he didn’t stir up a hundred beams of sword light to diminish the opponent’s sword edge.
Instead, he simply thrust his long sword straight out.
This sword, being transformed from his True Spirit Bone, was so tough that not even an individual at the Dominion Realm could damage it.
Holding the sword in his hand, he chose to counter the opponent’s slash with the simplest and most direct stab.
He had not reached the Dao Realm cultivation of the Great Pantheon Plane, but his body was sturdy, his physical strength immense to the extreme.
What use is a realm in the face of such fortitude?
Sword edges clashed.
The sword swung by Wang Chenlong was blocked by the three-foot-long sword in Han Muye’s hand.
No matter how much power of the Great Dao he harnessed, it had no effect against the sword edge.
The pattern on the sword in Han Muye’s hand remained unmoving.
“Clang—”
The crisp sound of vibrating metal echoed through the air.
The immense rebounding force caused Wang Chenlong’s sword to fly out of his grasp.
The three-foot-long sword that flew into the air shattered inch by inch, turning into a skyful of iron filings scattered around.
Wang Chenlong’s palm exploded, and golden bones inside were covered in cracks.
Even as a Dao Breaking Realm expert like him, he could not withstand the backlash of this sword strike.
Staggering underneath his feet, Wang Chenlong retreated ten steps in a row before finally tightening the grip on his arm, staring intently at Han Muye in front of him.
The sword in Han Muye’s hand pointed forward, his expression cold.
“Leave them behind, and the others return to wait at the All-Encompassing Sword Sect,” he said, pointing his sword at the captured members of Moon-Encompassing Peak.
In front of him, all the elders and elite disciples from the All-Encompassing Sword Sect who came to intercept them had pale faces, not knowing what to do for a moment.
They could never have imagined that Wang Chenlong, one of the top experts among the law enforcement elders and within the sect, would be defeated with a single sword.
How could this sword strike result in defeat?
That was a mighty Dao Breaking Realm expert!
Wang Chenlong clenched his teeth, trying his best to suppress the splintering of the bones in his palm, his face flushed with effort.
“Go,” a black-bearded elder on the other side of the field shouted lowly, turning to leave immediately.
Being able to defeat Wang Chenlong so effortlessly, none of them could see where Han Muye’s strength lay, which precisely indicated that Han Muye’s power was at an extreme level.
If they were to all rush up at this time, they couldn’t be sure they had any chance of winning.
Moreover, who would be willing to take action now?
It was better to go back to the sect first and see what the Sect Leader and the Elder of the Sword Nurturing Hut had to say.
The few individuals who were escorting Du Chen, Mei Yuchang, and the others from Moon-Encompassing Peak hurriedly retreated.
Everyone cautiously backed away, then started running towards the direction of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.
Han Muye didn’t make a move, his gaze inadvertently glancing to the side.
There, on the ridge of the mountains, the leading elder’s eyes shone brightly, and he shouted in a low voice, “Kill.”
As his command was uttered, all the lurking body-tempering cultivators leapt into the air.
With just a single leap, they covered hundreds of yards, and within a few steps, they intercepted the retreat of the mighty warriors from the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.
The leading elder didn’t speak; he just threw out a punch directly.
The fist edge turned into a one-yard long golden shadow in midair, enveloping several of the elder-ranked members of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.
“Clang—”
Several sword lights were unsheathed, colliding with the fist edge.
The elders who drew their swords all changed their expressions as their figures tumbled down.
“It’s the people from Heavenly Roaring Sect!”
“Heavenly Roaring Sect’s intent to annihilate our All-Encompassing Sword Sect is not dead; they’re actually taking this opportunity to ambush us!”
Murmurs and low calls rose as all the elders and officers from the All-Encompassing Sword Sect gathered together, eyeing the figures descending around them.
These attacking body refining experts carried a dense and powerful aura, clearly stronger than them.
Especially the few at the forefront, their auras and the power of their qi and blood had reached a terrifying level.
“Dao Breaking Peak, Wu Tangyue the Vice Sect Leader of Heavenly Roaring Sect, and Zhao Chengliang the Foreign Affairs Hall Master, you really are going all out this time!” sneered Wang Chenlong, trapped in the center with a gloomy expression.
Against these two Half-step Dao Extinguishing experts, their elders and officers had no chance of resisting.
If so many of them were to be ambushed today, the teachings of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect would be directly destroyed by over seventy percent.
“No wonder the rebels of Moon-Encompassing Peak were so arrogant, it turns out, they colluded with Heavenly Roaring Sect,” growled Wang Chenlong through clenched teeth, his qi and blood surging inside him, with a phantom long sword condensing behind his back.
“Fighting to the death, you all break through and escape separately!” Wang Chenlong declared, gearing up for a desperate fight, but the Heavenly Roaring Sect experts blocking the way laughed loudly.
Their powers of qi and blood connected, forming blood-red nets in the air.
“Today, none of you from the All-Encompassing Sword Sect will escape.”
“After we eliminate you, within ten thousand miles, my Heavenly Roaring Sect will reign supreme.”
