Chapter 687 - 676: Twenty-One Swordsman Shadows

After these creatures were devoured by Xiaao Aoshi and the Sword Scorpion on him, the aura of both surged dramatically.

This surge of energy was injected into the Emperor’s Sword and amplified by dozens of times!

Became even more terrifying!

"Die!"

Xiaao Aoshi raised the sword in his hand high, like Pangu opening the heavens and earth, and slashed heavily towards Ding Ling!

As this sword was swung.

It was as if the Celestial River poured into the human realm, and the sword Qi and intent condensed into strips like bridges, stabilizing the four corners and locking down the Ten Directions Realm!

Then, a stronger sword, like the Five Elements Mountain pressing down from the heavens, crashed down towards Ding Ling.

It seemed to want to utterly annihilate Ding Ling right here.

Ding Ling’s pupils contracted tightly, such a sword tore open cracks in the Sword Realm, emitting unbearable creaking, cracking noises, such commotion, this sword probably has already reached the limit of what this Sword Realm can bear!

Too terrifying.

Ding Ling wasn’t confident he could block it unscathed!

Fortunately, he had mastered the War God Technique, and wasn’t afraid of losing an arm or a leg, so he didn’t hesitate to inject all his sword Qi and intent into the Xuanyuan Sword, delivering his strongest strike!

Supreme Sword Dao!

No-Self Dao!

With one sword strike, it was as if twenty-one people simultaneously appeared in the void, Celestial Destiny Sword Dao, Tai Chi Sword, Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root, Azure Sea Wings Swordsmanship, Dugu Nine Swords, Holy Spirit Swordsmanship, Thunderbolt Swordsmanship, Shadow Stream Swordsmanship, Cyan Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword Technique, Dustfall Swordsmanship, Wind-Beating Swordsmanship, Soul-Seeking Swordsmanship, Shangqing Swordsmanship...

A full twenty-one top-tier sword skills, exquisitely displayed by Ding Ling, showcasing his legendary, supreme prowess as a swordsman!

Clang!

Clang clang clang!

In the void, a figure was seen sometimes dancing a Tai Chi Sword Wheel, clashing with the strips and exploding;

Sometimes seen a person soaring upwards, wielding a sword with a Cyan Dragon, roaring as it collided with the descending Infinite Sword Mountain, entwining but ultimately being overwhelmed by Sword Mountain and suppressed!

Then seen a figure thrust a sword, releasing densely packed infinite sword Qi, flying across the sky, like nets and weaves, razor-sharp and wondrous.

...

Ding Ling alone, forcibly executed twenty-one kinds of Great Perfection sword skills, each executed with the grace of an antelope’s horns, perfected to the minutest detail!

Xiaao Aoshi got increasingly surprised the more he watched, not expecting in such a short time not seeing Ding Ling, he had practiced so many top-tier sword skills!

He was sure that a day ago, Ding Ling absolutely didn’t know so many sword skills, and didn’t have such overwhelming sword intent!

He had been puzzled by how Ding Ling’s Supreme Sword Intent grew so swiftly until Ding Ling unleashed twenty-one top-tier sword skills in one breath, he suddenly realized.

Ding Ling must have gained some fortune in the Sword Realm, learned numerous divine sword skills!

And Ding Ling, once learned, mastered these martial arts and sword skills to the level of Great Perfection, was causing Xiaao Aoshi to be jealous, envious, and resentful, and naturally, his apprehension and murderous intent towards Ding Ling grew even stronger.

"This fellow and I are already as incompatible as fire and water! If I don’t kill him, once he grows up, he will surely kill me! No matter what I say today, I must kill him here and now!"

Ah!

Xiaao Aoshi roared angrily, infusing his entire True Qi, sword Qi, and sword intent into the Emperor’s Sword, causing the power of the Emperor’s Sword to erupt more magnificently.

The Sword Scorpion on him was also continuously absorbing other Shadow Sword Scorpions coming in from the void!

Causing the power of the Emperor’s Sword to rise steadily!

Crunch!

Boom boom boom!

As the Sword Mountains and Sword Rivers unleashed by the Emperor’s Sword showed their might, Ding Ling’s twenty-one like immortal and saintly Sword God figures began to disintegrate and dissipate one by one.

First, the Thunderbolt Swordsmanship collapsed;

Then the Shangqing Swordsmanship, Dustfall Swordsmanship, Wind-Beating Swordsmanship, Soul-Seeking Swordsmanship, Tai Chi Swordsmanship, Shadow Stream Swordsmanship...

Twenty-one mighty Sword God figures.

Were suppressed and dissipated one after another in an extremely short time.

"...!!!"

Zhang Sanfeng watched in amazement, his scalp tingling, murmured:

"Too strong! Whether Ding Ling or that Demon Dao master, both are too strong! Especially Ding Ling, this sword mastery has already reached the domain of Dao! Mysterious and profound, hard to fathom, or see through!"

"Yet such a Sword God-like figure like Ding Ling, is he really going to lose?!"

He watched as Ding Ling was struck by Xiaao Aoshi’s sword and fell from the void, landing heavily on the ground, his heart couldn’t help but shrink.

He was somewhat worried about Ding Ling.

Besides Ding Ling promptly pulling out a sword to fight with Xiaao Aoshi, saving his life;

There was also Ding Ling was seemingly aligned with him as someone of the righteous path, incompatible with the Demon Dao Xiaao Aoshi;

And such a demon giant, if not eliminated, the future of the Sword Realm, even Jiuzhou Territory, was enough to cause Zhang Sanfeng concern!

Zhang Sanfeng wasn’t afraid to die.

He was afraid that if Ding Ling and he died, no one in the Sword Realm or Jiuzhou could stop such a demonic and monstrous figure, then wouldn’t countless innocents, Ascenders, become slaves and puppets of this Demon Dao fiend?

Especially sensing that Ding Ling could also use the Tai Chi Sword, Zhang Sanfeng felt an inexplicable sense of closeness to Ding Ling.

For him to choose a side.

He would definitely choose Ding Ling!

So when he saw Ding Ling fall and lying on the ground, he couldn’t help but step out to confront Xiaao Aoshi!

Knowing full well he would die.

He still went forward without hesitation!

However, before he could shout and berate Xiaao Aoshi, Ding Ling suddenly flipped over and soared back into the sky, using the exact same move again! Instantly transforming into the twenty-one figures and engaged in battle with Xiaao Aoshi.

"Huh!"

Not only was Zhang Sanfeng startled, but Xiaao Aoshi was also shocked and incredulous:

"Your limbs have been shattered by my sword Qi! How come you now appear entirely unharmed?!"

He found it hard to believe.

Just moments ago.

With all his might.

Ding Ling was crushed.

Protective Gang Qi was pierced through!

All his limbs and organs were hit, amid crunching sounds, broken bones, severed hands, and feet became a reality.

Xiaao Aoshi was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, smile slightly, and retrieve the Emperor’s Sword when Ding Ling suddenly launched at him with unpredictably swift speed!

Xiaao Aoshi couldn’t get his sword out in time, caught off guard and struck fiercely!

Protective Gang Qi was pierced through.

His face and body were slashed with countless shocking wounds by the sword Qi.

"Ah!"

Xiaao Aoshi felt extreme pain all over his body, furious, roared, activating the Emperor’s Sword instantly once more, slashing again at Ding Ling:

"Die, die, die!"

Swish!

This time Ding Ling didn’t engage, but executed the Free-Will Ascension Step, like streams of light flexibly maneuvering in the void, dodging ceaselessly.

Just because he sensed that the refining of the Domain Crystal was about to succeed!

Once complete.

He would be the god within a thousand miles of this Sword Realm!

No matter how strong Xiaao Aoshi was, he would be annihilated!
