Chapter 189 - 135: Earth-Shattering Sword Strike, Everyone Dumbfounded, What Is He Doing?

Chapter 189: Chapter 135: Earth-Shattering Sword Strike, Everyone Dumbfounded, What Is He Doing?

The moment the seven swords struck simultaneously, Jiang Hao slowly raised his head, a trace of chilling intent rising in his eyes.

"Are they finally making a move?" he thought.

This was the exact moment he had been waiting for. Only those seven figures atop the Celestial Sword Peak possessed the strength to pose a truly fatal threat on behalf of the Celestial Sword Sect. As for these Saint Sons and Saintesses, their loss would only be a flesh wound. As long as the Celestial Sword Seven Sons remained unharmed, they could still hold up the sky for the Celestial Sword Sect for countless years to come.

"Seven Swords as One!"

BOOM!!!

Having witnessed his terrifying strength, even the Celestial Sword Seven Sons dared not be careless. They unleashed their strongest attack right from the start.

"Even if this strike doesn’t kill him, it will severely injure him."

As the seven of them spoke, the weather over the entire Celestial Sword Sect instantly changed. Sword Qi surged like dragons. The endless Sword Qi converged into a single blade, transforming into a terrifying wave of energy that stretched for tens of thousands of feet. It was truly a horrifying sight.

"Elders, please take action to protect our fellow disciples! Leave this brat to the seven of us. We will certainly suppress him beneath our seven swords."

BOOM!!!

Finishing their words, the seven soared into the sky, seemingly merging into one with the world-shocking Sword Qi. Hearing the words of the Celestial Sword Seven Sons, countless Celestial Sword Sect Elders immediately focused their attention, ready to neutralize the shockwaves of the Sword Qi at any moment.

"Sword of Heaven, sever!"

The seven spoke in unison. The aura of the massive Sword Qi skyrocketed wildly. As if wielded by an invisible giant, it slashed down violently toward Jiang Hao. The seven figures plummeted alongside it. The terrifying commotion made even countless older generation figures break out in a cold sweat.

"As expected of the Celestial Sword Seven Sons. The strength of these seven young Sealing Kings, who cultivate the Celestial Sword Technique, is simply too terrifying."

"Even the Five Sons of Nanling might not be able to take this strike head-on, right?"

"Senior brothers and sisters, kill him! Avenge our fellow disciples!"

"Jiang, you’re dead meat!"

"Pay with your life!"

RUMBLE!!!

As the terrifying Sword Qi descended, the void above the entire Celestial Sword Sect trembled. Even though this scene left countless Cultivators dumbfounded, the youth in white could be considered the first person in history capable of forcing the Celestial Sword Seven Sons to combine their seven swords right from the get-go.

"This sword strike is far too shocking."

"With the seven sons joining forces, it’s bound to be a bitter battle."

"Jiang Hao... if this boy doesn’t die today, he will become a major threat to the Celestial Sword Sect. I’m afraid even the main sect won’t be able to sit still."

"Who would have thought? To witness such a heaven-defying battle of geniuses in my lifetime... I can die with no regrets."

One by one, the aged figures looked on, their eyes filled with utter shock.

This battle could be called the greatest clash since the start of the Eastern Domain’s genius supremacy battles. Whether it was the Celestial Sword Seven Sons or that lone figure, they were simply too heaven-defying.

"To think that the child from back then has already grown to such an extent. I wonder if those people in the Celestial Sword Sect regret their decision from all those years ago." At the end of the endless void, Bai Wufeng, Gai He, and the others watched the world-shocking strike, sighing with emotion.

It was obvious that no matter the outcome of today’s battle, the figure in white could not possibly perish within the Celestial Sword Sect’s Earth Realm. After all, frankly speaking, Jiang Hao no longer had no one standing behind him. He had the backing of countless terrifying, peerless experts from the entire Nanling—true peerless experts. Not to mention, there were two figures watching the show from the void outside the Celestial Sword Sect.

These two figures would never let the youth perish inside, especially that lazy-looking Carefree Sword Saint. He was an illogical powerhouse who could, to a certain extent, interfere with the genius supremacy battles. This was also one of the reasons why Jiang Renfeng dared to toss Jiang Hao directly inside.

"Xiaonanzi, if that kid can’t block this strike, I’ll cleave this damn array open with one sword, and you must bring him out immediately."

Clearly, even the White-robed Divine King, Jiang Renfeng, did not know exactly what realm that figure had reached. After all, what he had broken in the Dragon Transformation Pool was a limit that no one in history had ever broken. No one knew exactly how strong he had become.

Hearing Jiang Renfeng’s words, Yan Nantian also grew unusually serious, staring intently at the developments inside.

"No matter how bad it gets, he’s still a freak who broke the eternal limit. He should at least have the power to put up a fight, right?" Yan Nantian said, a trace of anticipation even appearing on his face.

At this moment, the endless Cultivators—everyone—held their breath. Even those peerless Venerables, Heaven and Earth Venerables, Divine Kings, and Saints at the Peak of the Firmament could not help but direct their attention there.

Just as everyone thought they were about to witness a world-shaking battle, a trace of confusion flashed through Jiang Hao’s eyes.

"Is this the strength of the Celestial Sword Seven Sons?" he thought.

Jiang Hao somewhat doubted if he had sensed it wrong. Comparing the power of their strike with the Power of Transcendence in his body after breaking the limit, he became even more puzzled.

"Why are they still so weak?" he wondered. "This shouldn’t be right. Is the power I gained after breaking the limit just too strong? Or are the so-called Celestial Sword Seven Sons merely coasting on an empty reputation? This power doesn’t seem that much stronger than those Saint Sons."

"It’s only... about ten times stronger," he realized. "But compared to the untapped power within my body, this tenfold increase is somewhat underwhelming."

Ultimately, Jiang Hao came to a conclusion: he was simply too terrifying. Or rather, a Cultivator who had broken the absolute historical limit was too terrifying. At this moment, Jiang Hao had the illusion that he could suppress them single-handedly. No, it wasn’t an illusion. He could truly suppress them with a single hand.

It must be known that up until now, Jiang Hao still hadn’t used his full strength, nor had he even used any martial skills. He was purely crushing them with raw power. Originally, he thought he would definitely face a bitter battle when the seven made their move, so he had been hiding his true strength.

But this is it?

"Heh, Celestial Sword Seven Sons?"

Thinking of this, even Jiang Hao couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

"Nothing more than this. They’ve been hyped up a bit too much," Jiang Hao muttered to himself, speaking from the bottom of his heart. "Perhaps it’s not that you’re too weak, but that I’m truly too strong."

Hearing the youth in white muttering to himself, a Saintess who was preparing to retreat and leave the main battlefield to the Celestial Sword Seven Sons couldn’t help but pause. She stared blankly at Jiang Hao, asking in confusion, "What are you saying?"

In truth, this Saintess had heard his words clearly, but she simply couldn’t believe her own ears.

Jiang Hao didn’t pay attention to the Celestial Sword Sect Saintess. Instead, he slowly put away the Chaos Sword Embryo and let out a deep sigh.

"You seven, you can’t blame me. If it weren’t for the seven of you, those old fossils of the Celestial Sword Sect probably wouldn’t reveal anything regarding me and my father.

"For the sake of my father’s whereabouts, and to find out why the Celestial Sword Sect insists on claiming the flesh and blood of my father and me, I can only make you suffer."

Finishing his words, Jiang Hao raised his eyes to look at the world-shocking strike. He no longer utilized the Destructive Magical Artifact in his hand. Instead, with a calm and composed demeanor, he stepped forward to meet the peerless Sword Qi that seemed capable of cleaving heaven and earth in half.

Watching this scene, monstrous waves of shock gradually welled up in the beautiful eyes of the Saintess. Especially the words the youth in white had just muttered; they kept roaring loudly in her mind. He had actually put his sword away, his tone seemingly filled with utter disdain for the Celestial Sword Seven Sons. No, perhaps it wasn’t disdain, but an overarching dominance unintentionally exuded by a supreme powerhouse.

All of this seemed to take a long time, but it actually happened in a mere fraction of a second. Just as endless thunderclouds of shock billowed in the Celestial Sword Sect Saintess’s heart...

BOOM!!!

The terrifying Sword Qi had already descended. Under the watchful eyes of the masses, the white-robed youth sheathed his sword and placed his hands behind his back. Defying the heavens, he soared upward, meeting the world-shocking strike head-on just like that.

"What is he doing? Does he have a death wish?"

At the moment they saw Jiang Hao put away his sword, countless Cultivators were completely dumbfounded. This included Gu Qingyan, Jiang Renfeng, Yan Nantian, Bai Wufeng, Gai He, Wu Jing, Leng Tianyu, Feng Wuya, Feng Yuechan, Hua Yazi, Baili Tusu, Huang Ling’Er, Divine Jian, and the Exiled Immortal Fairy, among others. Beyond them, there were also endless favored sons and daughters of heaven from Nanling, countless spectators from the various factions of the Eastern Domain, and innumerable disciples and Elders of the Celestial Sword Sect.

At this moment, everyone was stunned. Even the Celestial Sword Seven Sons, who had merged as one with the Sword Qi, were somewhat stupefied by this scene, at a total loss for what to do.
