Chapter 1398 – My Saber is My Dao, and My Dao is My Saber
Hong Feiguan.
An early-stage Cloud Soaring Realm Transcendent.
He was a leading figure amongst descendants of immortals, and he’d accomplished numerous legendary feats prior to the End of the Dharma.
His strength was enough to make even long-established Cloud Soaring experts ashamed of their own inferiority!
Immortal revenants still couldn’t enter the world. For now at least, top Cloud Soaring experts like Hong Feiguan were as strong as it got!
More importantly, here in the Flying Immortal Forbidden Zone, he wasn’t subject to the restrictions of the Laws. This meant he could unleash the full extent of his strength!
Su Yi.
A peak Cosmic Enlightenment World King.
He was a heaven-defying figure, the man who’d mastered reincarnation. You could in no way judge his strength by his cultivation boundary.
Of late, his many glorious feats had shaken the world, and they were already common knowledge.
In the outside world, the overwhelming majority of Cloud Soaring revenants wouldn’t have dared clash with Su Yi recklessly!
Now, a duel was about to unfold between these two mighty foes on the peak of Mount Luowu. Who wouldn’t have paid attention?
Everyone watched from afar with bated breath, terrified to miss even the slightest detail.
In stark contrast with the crowd, both Su Yi and Hong Feiguan looked relaxed, as if they were tourists out enjoying the scenery. They just stood on the peak, gazing at each other from afar.
“My cultivation far surpasses yours, but you control the secrets of reincarnation, the bane of revenants like me. It’s a fair match, albeit just barely,” said Hong Feiguan. “Don’t you think?”
“At times like these, all talk of fairness is in vain,” said Su Yi. “I’ll just ask you this. Does this duel have any rules?”
Hong Feiguan’s gaze was perfectly clear, and he said calmly, “We’ll fight with our own strength, and we won’t stop until one of us is dead! You’re a sword cultivator, so you can use your sword.”
The old monsters in attendance all looked at him playfully, while the Mo Family experts frowned, their hearts heavy.
These rules might have sounded fair, but were they really?
After all, during the battle at Mount Clearmoon, Hong Feiguan’s younger brother, Hong Feiyu, used multiple trump cards, only for Su Yi to break through them all.
Including the Blue Astral Immortal Flood Dragon and an immortal’s will!
It was for this reason that everyone in the Flying Immortal Forbidden Zone knew that Su Yi hadn’t just mastered reincarnation. He had other extremely terrifying trump cards up his sleeves too.
Like that mysterious furnace!
For Hong Feiguan to suggest such rules proved that he was well aware of this. He had no intention of fighting Su Yi with external items.
But no one would criticize him over that.
After all, were they to compare trump cards, the Hong Family’s reserves would have been sufficient to let Hong Feiguan prepare all manner of unbelievable killer weapons!
Su Yi had no objections. He just nodded. “Very well.”
Clang!
Hong Feiguan flipped his palm, and a simple, unadorned war saber floated into view. It was four feet, three inches long, black throughout, and shining with immortal light reminiscent of an eternal night.
With his saber in hand, Hong Feiguan’s aura instantly turned sharp and forceful.
“This is my saber, a Transcendent spirit treasure. Its name is the Steadfast Adherence. I forged it myself,” Hong Feiguan said softly.
His white robes swayed around him, and his clear eyes shone with imposing light. Tyrannical saber intent brewed around his tall, upright figure.
His forceful saber intent scattered the surrounding sea of clouds, and the resulting wisps of vapor soon dispersed.
“Does the name mean that you seek to achieve extraordinary results through steadfast adherence to the right path, and to advance at a steady pace to reach great heights?” Su Yi said thoughtfully. 𝚏rewe𝚘vel.𝚌𝚘m
Hong Feiguan’s eyes shone with a strange light, and he inclined his head. “Indeed. What about your sword? Might you bring it out so I can see it?”
Su Yi laughed. “That’ll depend on your skill.”
It was just one light, airy sentence, but it left the distant onlookers astonished. He’s up against someone like Hong Feiguan, yet he disdains to draw his sword right away?
“Arrogant!” shouted Fu Dongli.
Many others thought the same.
Hong Feiguan looked down at his saber and said softly, “Then… I’ll just have to try it.”
Clang!
The hum of his saber rang out, like the bright, clear call of a phoenix echoing throughout the nine heavens.
Hong Feiguan’s right hand gripped his saber, his thumb just beneath the hilt. As the hum of his saber rang out, he disappeared into thin air.
Whoosh!
Countless gashes tore open in the overcast skies. Black saber qi poured out of the rifts, crisscrossing in the air.
It was like a windstorm of saber qi, and as soon as it appeared, it ripped the sky to shreds as startling, heart-palpitating saber intent burst forth.
The distant onlookers felt a prickling pain in their eyes and even their souls. All of them looked stricken.
When an expert attacked, their skill was readily apparent.
One slash from Hong Feiguan, and even the Cloud Soaring experts in the audience caught a whiff of a lethal threat!
“The Ten Thousand Refinements Divine Saber!” Mo Qingchou’s heart clenched.
This was the Hong Family’s core legacy. Rumor had it that their progenitor, a heavenly demon, created it. It contained supreme mysteries of the Demonist path, and it was an unparalleled legacy even by the standards of the Immortal Realm. It was terrifying beyond measure.
There was no doubt about it. Hong Feiguan had no intention of holding back. He was using his strongest abilities right from the start, striking with unstoppable force to suppress Su Yi!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Saber qi crisscrossed, and the entire stretch of sky tore like canvas as a sound like the roaring of demonic gods rang out.
Those beneath the Cloud Soaring Realm suddenly could no longer open up their eyes. Their hearts and souls shook violently, and all of them were visibly astonished.
In the face of this saber, Su Yi narrowed his eyes, then broke into a hint of a smile. His Dao of the Saber really is quite decent!
Boom!
Su Yi’s sleeves billowed around him as he stretched out his five fair, slender fingers and struck the air.
A streak of sword qi soared into the heavens. The mysteries of reincarnation interwove within it, inscrutable and mysterious, as if they’d risen directly out of the abyss of the netherworld.
The saber qi filling the skies shook, then exploded with a bang.
It was as if sword qi had broken the dome of heaven, or as if the heavens themselves were about to pour down to earth.
Terrifying sword force spread, and Mount Luowu shook violently beneath their feet. Boulders tumbled down its slopes, and fragments of rock pierced the sky.
Hong Feiguan was a hundred feet from Su Yi when the sword qi forced him back into view.
Throughout the surrounding area, the crowd was astonished. They suddenly realized that Hong Feiguan had just seized advantage of the cover of saber qi, and that he’d come dangerously close to Su Yi!
And Su Yi’s display of terrifying sword force made their hearts shake too.
“Excellent!” Hong Feiguan’s eyes blazed with the will to fight. His robes billowed around him as he charged and swung his saber once more.
Su Yi stepped through the air and swung his fist, clashing with him head-on.
Boom!
The two clashed violently beneath the dome of heaven, like colliding suns. With each clash, the surrounding mountains and rivers trembled, and the sky collapsed with a bang.
Hong Feiguan was dressed in robes whiter than snow. He looked handsome and delicate, but he struck like an unparalleled god of war. Every gesture was as grand as the heavens and as weighty as the earth, and he fought with unrestrained valiance.
His attainments in the Dao of the Saber truly seemed to seize fortune from the heavens. Every slash was unstoppable, with enough force to cleave through heaven and earth!
An explosive waterfall of immortal light rumbled and boomed around him, throwing the skies on all sides into disarray!
His divine majesty intimidated even the distant onlookers. Their hearts and minds quivered, and they gasped in alarm.
This was what it meant to be a leading figure amongst descendants of immortals. He had godlike force and momentum, and he cleaved open the heavens with a swing of his saber!
At first, everyone assumed that Su Yi wouldn’t last long against attacks of this level.
But the reality of the situation came as a complete surprise!
Su Yi was fighting barehanded, and he’d yet to draw his sword. However, despite the ferocity of his and Hong Feiguan’s battle, Su Yi hadn’t been suppressed. On the contrary, he was holding his own!
His blue robes billowed around him, and his sword intent was as deep as an abyss. He had an extraordinary, ethereal bearing, and he attacked without the slightest flourish, every strike simple and direct.
But the sword intent within each strike neutralized Hong Feiguan’s attacks one by one!
It almost seemed as if Su Yi were a boulder resting on the shore. No matter how fierce the wind or tidal waves, they couldn’t shake him!
It was truly unbelievable, and it resulted in considerable uproar.
Some of the peak Cloud Soaring Realm old monsters looked bewildered and uncertain. They struggled to even imagine how Su Yi was pulling this off.
After all, this wasn’t the outside world. Here, Hong Feiguan wasn’t subject to the restriction of the Laws, and he could display the full extent of his power! But despite the circumstances, Su Yi was fighting evenly with him. Who’d dare believe such a thing?
“We absolutely cannot leave Su Yi alive! Otherwise, there will be no room left for we revenants to turn this situation around!” Someone frowned and gnashed their teeth.
Just think about it. Su Yi was only in the peak of the Cosmic Enlightenment Realm, but he was already this heaven-defying. How strong would he become if he stepped onto the Path of Transcendence?
“It’s got to be because he underwent reincarnation to cultivate anew. That’s why he has such terrifying strength and foundations!”
“No wonder the Contract of the Gods forbids the power of reincarnation. This taboo power really is unbelievable!”
Some of the onlookers’ hearts shook, and their eyes went red with desire.
“Even if he were far more heaven-defying, he’d still be doomed to die today!”
Others’ gazes were cold, cruel, and murderous.
There was no questioning Hong Feiguan’s strength. His abilities were extraordinary and dazzling, but this seemed like a matter of course.
However, they saw Su Yi completely differently. His majestic bearing was far too dazzling, but this only made the crowd even more hostile to him. Murderous intent welled within their hearts!
“My saber is my Dao, and my Dao is my saber! I pursue the Dao wholeheartedly, and I can cut down gods, ghosts, and even suns and moons!” Hong Feiguan’s long hair fluttered around him as he let out a heaven-shaking roar and slashed with all his might.
Boom!
A black streak of saber qi exploded into being in a single natural motion, splitting the dome of heaven and descending upon the Human Realm with seemingly unstoppable force.
Even some of the Cloud Soaring Realm old monsters felt their hair stand on end. They were overcome with astonishment.
This was obviously one of Hong Feiguan’s killer moves!
This slash contained Hong Feiguan’s essence, qi, spirit, and will. Its saber force was enough to break through the skies and shatter the ground.
Nothing could stand in its way!
Su Yi’s gaze focused. Suddenly, he placed his hands in front of him as if embracing the supreme ultimate. A sword curtain appeared around him.
The cycle of the Six Paths of Reincarnation was reflected within it in an endless, self-perpetuating cycle.
It had only just taken shape when Hong Feiguan’s slash reached it.
Boom——!
The skies exploded with a bang within a ten-thousand-foot radius around Su Yi. Rampaging sword light and saber qi swept outward, their radiance blanketing the sky. All the crowd saw was endless white light.
Had Su Yi lost?
Countless eyes peered through the dust and smoke.
What they saw next left them wide-eyed and tongue-tied.
Su Yi stood in the air, clothes fluttering around him, that resplendent streak of saber qi trapped firmly between his palms! This was Hong Feiguan’s killer move, yet Su Yi had blocked it head-on!
The crowd then watched as Su Yi rubbed his palms together, and…
Bang bang bang!
That tyrannical black saber qi crumbled, inch by inch, scattered into flecks of light, and poured out from between Su Yi’s fingers. Soon, it had disappeared without a trace.
The entire area was deathly silent. Everyone was wide-eyed and tongue-tied.
Off in the distance, Hong Feiguan furrowed his brow.
His typically emotionless, unwavering face now revealed an uncharacteristic hint of surprise.
