Chapter 2505 Evil Spirit Sword Intent

Second update, asking for subscriptions and monthly tickets~~~

...

A peak Grandmaster-level expert was actually knocked to the ground with a single palm strike?

And it was done by a severely injured, peak-level Grandmaster... this is almost an impossible event!

Yet this impossible event not only happened, but happened to him, Blood Arrow Fu Hongyun. That palm strike was incredibly powerful, almost rendering him, one of the Evil Sect Three Heroes and a peak Grandmaster-level expert, powerless to resist.

It was as if the one who struck just now wasn't a Grandmaster-level expert, but a Supreme Realm powerhouse...

"Enjoying it?"

What made Fu Hongyun's eyes go wild with anger and humiliation was that Qin Fang, whom he was supposed to easily kill, was now leisurely speeding away, turning back to mock him with a taunting laugh.

Earlier, Fu Hongyun was extremely proud, almost feeling that he could easily toy with Qin Fang between his palms...

But the scene before his eyes slapped him in the face several times hard... If the other two members of the Evil Sect Three Heroes saw this scene, he, Blood Arrow Fu Hongyun, would never be able to lift his head again!

At this moment, Fu Hongyun almost hated Qin Fang to death...

But his body ached enormously, even though that restrictive force had disappeared, he was still powerless to pursue Qin Fang...

Of course, Qin Fang did not take advantage of Fu Hongyun being severely beaten and almost unable to move to come over and kill him...

Not because Qin Fang didn't want to, but because... he couldn't!

Because…

"Hmph, a dignified Supreme powerhouse, stooping to sneak attacks on juniors..."

A cold voice came from behind, the tone revealing considerable anger... At the same time, a terrifying aura swiftly engulfed the position where Blood Arrow Fu Hongyun was.

Shi Songyun had arrived...

King Zun's strength was formidable, but compared to Shi Songyun, he was still much weaker... he could barely hold Shi Songyun back for a while, but defeat was almost inevitable.

During this short time while Qin Fang was escaping, he did his utmost to resist Shi Songyun, but still failed, being severely injured by Shi Songyun... almost being killed on the spot by him.

But at this critical moment, an extraordinarily terrifying aura erupted in front, causing even someone as powerful as Shi Songyun, at the mid-stage peak of Sovereign Realm, to hesitate, then decisively abandon King Zun and the other Evil Sect experts still fighting, rapidly pursuing forward.

Just before Shi Songyun could discover the source of that terrifying aura, he already saw Fu Hongyun, a young talent of the Evil Sect, being slapped to the ground by someone...

Fu Hongyun's eyesight wasn't sharp enough, and he mistakenly thought the attacker was Qin Fang.

But how could Shi Songyun not see through it?

The person who struck down Fu Hongyun was clearly a Supreme Realm powerhouse... although there was quite a gap in strength between him and Shi Songyun, dealing with a young expert like Fu Hongyun, at the peak of Grandmaster-level, was effortless.

Not to mention, this Supreme powerhouse even resorted to a despicable sneak attack...

Of course, Shi Songyun's arrival forced Qin Fang to abandon the idea of killing Fu Hongyun and commit to fleeing with all his strength, as it was the only way to escape from Shi Songyun's grasp... As for who cooperated with him in secretly attacking Fu Hongyun just now, it was obviously the newly advanced Supreme realm powerhouse, Blue-wing Bat King Wei Chunqiu, who had hurriedly arrived.

Fu Hongyun's qinggong was quite outstanding, but compared to Blue-wing Bat King Wei Chunqiu, it paled in comparison, not to mention the vast gap in cultivation between them was even more extreme... Wei Chunqiu, advancing to the Supreme Realm by consuming the Azure Dragon Pill, might not compare to mid-stage Supreme realm experts, but when compared to some veteran early-stage Supreme realm experts, he was not inferior.

Just like King Zun who intercepted Shi Songyun earlier, if he were to duel with Wei Chunqiu, he might not necessarily be Wei Chunqiu's match... What gave Wei Chunqiu the edge was not only his unimpaired strength but also his mystical Green Bat Technique and the fiercely powerful Chaotic Divine Fist.

Of course, if the Bat King Wei clashed with the terrifyingly powerful Shi Songyun, then he would have no chance of victory...

For this reason, Qin Fang didn't want to risk killing Fu Hongyun; instead, he chose to continue fleeing... if he were to confront Shi Songyun head-on, Wei Chunqiu might not be as reliable as the desperate King Zun, as this old ghost had always been the king of escape routes.

"Shi Songyun, I indeed used a sneak attack, what can you do about it?"

Qin Fang couldn't fight Shi Songyun, so he decisively ran away, but Blue-wing Bat King Wei Chunqiu didn't rush to leave. Instead, he mocked in a strange tone, entangling Shi Songyun... this old ghost was just too formidable, without effective restraint, he alone could easily slaughter everyone from the Five Great Sects.

"You cowardly creature, come out..."

Shi Songyun's face was extremely unsightly. He was a renowned heretic giant, although he couldn't compare to his master, Emperor Shi Wanxie, he was still one of the few standing at the peak in the Martial World. Now, he was being insulted by a Paramount Expert who was clearly less powerful than himself. How could he not be angry?

Buzz~~~~

Almost simultaneously as he spoke, the treasured sword he had been holding across his chest unsheathed itself and soared into the air... An auroral Sword Qi shot straight up to the sky, instantly releasing an ultimate evil aura of terror from within.

"Evil Spirit Sword Intent..."

Even Blue-wing Bat King Wei Chunqiu, who had long known Shi Songyun's terrifying prowess, and more than half of his cultivation focused on the sword, couldn't help but exclaim when Shi Songyun truly unleashed his sword.

Sword Dao experts primarily cultivate Sword Qi, but true warriors must comprehend Sword Intent to ascend to the peak of Sword Dao.

The difference between Sword Intents is vast. Attribute Sword Intent far surpasses Non-Attributive Sword Intent, and high-quality Attribute Sword Intent is leagues above low-quality ones. This is the root of why many Sword Dao experts are incredibly powerful.

Shi Songyun was among the few beneath the absolute peak because his cultivation had reached the Mid-stage Peak of Sovereign Realm, and his mastery of the Evil Spirit Sword Technique was indispensable.

The Evil Spirit Sword Technique originates from an ancient era, possibly from the distant antiquity... It's almost deemed the foremost sword technique of the Heretic Dao, its power terrifyingly unmatched, alongside the legendary Mount Shu Sword Technique from the Sword Sect.

Unfortunately, Mount Shu Sect declined, and the Mount Shu Sword Technique vanished into the stream of history, with only fragmented parts retained by the split-off Sword Dao sects. Even combined, these fragments couldn't recreate the complete Mount Shu Sword Technique, naturally leading to its loss.

The Evil Spirit Sword Technique faced similar fate, as the Evil Sect's legacy isn't any shorter than the Orthodox Sects, possibly even longer...

However, due to the Evil Sect's ruthless and cruel methods, throughout history it repeatedly faced suppression and massacre from Orthodox Sects, Demon Sect, and some foreign sects, nearly severing their lineage. Yet, it stubbornly endured, reviving from ashes...

Unfortunately, many of the Evil Sect's sinister secret techniques were lost, including the once revered Evil Spirit Sword Technique... It's said the Mount Shu Sect once had fragments of it, and some even say Mount Shu Sect's downfall is related to this.

Of course, these matters are long unverifiable...

But the fragmentation of the Evil Spirit Sword Technique is a fact... So, it's been many years since anyone mastered it, not even the supremely talented Supreme of the Evil Path, Emperor Shi Wanxie succeeded; he eventually switched to another powerful secret technique.

Yet, there were freaks, like Shi Songyun... His talent was initially ordinary, although joining the rapidly advancing Evil Sect, he remained quite mediocre, practically an unnoticeable Evil Sect disciple.

Everything changed when he inadvertently found the Evil Spirit Sword Technique manual...

This originally ordinary Evil Sect disciple embarked on a freakish path...

At twenty-five, while fellow Evil Sect disciples attained Grandmaster Level cultivation, a few exceptional ones stepped into the Great Grandmaster Level... This was the advantage of Evil Sect, far stronger than Orthodox sects of the same age.

But Shi Songyun had just barely reached Grandmaster Level... reduced to a miscellany servant in the Evil Sect.

However, that year he began cultivating the Evil Spirit Sword Technique...

That same year, in the sixth month of cultivating the technique, he leapt from Grandmaster Level to become the Grandmaster... His swordsmanship exceedingly sharp, effortlessly defeated several elite disciples his age, standing proud in the Grandmaster Realm.

A year later, Shi Songyun achieved minor mastery of the Evil Spirit Sword Technique, advanced to Great Grandmaster Level, defeating all young disciples of his generation in the Evil Sect, becoming the top beneath the Supreme Realm...

Emperor Shi Wanxie stepped forward and accepted Shi Songyun as his foremost disciple...

Five years later, when Shi Songyun was thirty-one, he fully mastered the Evil Spirit Sword Technique, entered the Supreme Realm... Condensed the Evil Spirit Sword Aura domain, unmatched among Supreme Realm Initial Stage experts, and single-handedly stormed a vital hall of the Sky Demon Sect, slaying one Supreme Realm powerhouse, three Half-Step Supreme experts, leaving unharmed!

Thus, the name of Evil Spirit Sword Sovereign Shi Songyun became renowned across the Martial World...

In the following decade or more, Shi Songyun rose from Supreme Realm Initial Stage to Mid-stage Supreme Realm, his cultivation rivalling his master, Emperor Shi Wanxie... The Evil Spirit Sword Technique reached perfection, with the Evil Spirit Sword Aura prevailing everywhere!

Yet, almost everyone knew...

What Shi Songyun comprehended was merely a very ordinary Non-Attributive Sword Intent, happening only after entering the Supreme Realm with the help of Sword Aura... This is the weakest way to attain Sword Intent, naturally of the lowest quality.

This is almost a common knowledge in the Martial World...

But now it clearly contradicts the rumored news, Shi Songyun actually comprehended... Evil Spirit Sword Intent! (To be continued.
