Chapter 1337: Chapter 1336: Secret Technique: Hurricane Vortex

"I’ll give you back that sentence unchanged."

Ling Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly, and as his gaze shifted, a line of brilliance formed, resembling two silver beams. The fierce wind blew, causing his black hair to flutter and sway, like ink and clouds.

"Interesting, Ling Chen, you truly are a rival sent to me by the heavens. As long as I defeat you, my Sword King’s title will be even more illustrious and fully deserved!"

Beichuan Ye laughed in anger. Ling Chen was not only the most formidable opponent he had encountered but also the first to be so composed in front of him. Even the Unparalleled King had previously been pressured by him to the point of being unable to breathe, not daring to utter a single boast. Yet Ling Chen, from beginning to end, remained calm and composed, steady like Mount Tai.

"I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed."

Ling Chen’s gaze was dark, Sword Intent spewing forth from his eyes as he looked levelly at Beichuan Ye, calm in expression. It wasn’t that he was determined to stand out and compete with Beichuan Ye for fame and profit, but rather because the Sword King title was too important. When the Sword King was not present, everything was peaceful among them, with no need for conflict. However, if Beichuan Ye were to win the title of Sword King, then the fortune of all young talents using swords, especially the Youth Kings of Sword Way, would be partially stripped away and concentrated on the one who obtains the Sword King title.

Ling Chen’s title is the Ten Thousand Swords King, which is a top-tier title, meaning the impact on Ling Chen would be significant. Hence, rather than watching his fortune being taken by Beichuan Ye, he preferred to contend with him, seeing whose fate it will ultimately be—only time will tell.

"Secret technique · Hurricane Vortex!"

Beichuan Ye suddenly tapped his foot, and at that moment, his Sword Momentum surged to its peak, appearing as if his body might burst if pushed further. Yet at this moment, he acted, causing the lake water below to explode. A giant vortex appeared at the center of the lake, as if an Ancient Giant Beast emerged, emanating a domineering and astonishing aura.

The hurricane swept wildly, and even people several thousand meters away felt its presence, having to muster True Qi to resist the wind to stabilize themselves.

With a burst of violent killing intent, the hurricane abruptly rose, like a giant beast opening its bloody mouth, enveloping Ling Chen’s figure, resembling a black hole that continually expanded, threatening to swallow the vast expanse before it.

"If you want to swallow, then let you swallow enough!"

Ling Chen swiftly inserted the Red Sky Sword back into its scabbard, then directed the Thunder Sound Sword to divide instantly into hundreds of Flying Swords. Each Flying Sword was infused with Ling Chen’s Sword Intent, their sword bodies expanded, energy vast, each reaching several meters in size!

Whizz whizz whizz whizz whizz!

The densely packed Flying Swords all rushed into the hurricane’s mouth, all charged in. The hurricane suddenly expanded, as if it was a balloon being blown with countless breaths, already surpassing its limit.

"Damn it! It’s going to explode!"

Beichuan Ye’s pupils shrank, and just as he reacted, the Hurricane Vortex already exploded.

The violent shockwave spread in rings, forming a massive airflow mushroom cloud, soaring into the sky, piercing a large hole in the clouds, unfathomably deep. At this moment, Ling Chen felt as if a nuclear bomb exploded in front of him, hit by the shockwave, pausing slightly, and quickly flying backwards, light as a sheet of paper, drifting in the wind out of control.

Beichuan Ye also wasn’t spared; he hadn’t expected Ling Chen to use this method to break his secret technique. If it had been a direct clash, he wouldn’t be afraid. The opponent’s vision was so acute, instantly identifying the way to break his Sword Techniques, simply a demon of talent, standing a whole level above the likes of the Unparalleled King and Heaven Exterminating King.

Creaaak!

The Protective True Qi emitted a harsh tearing sound, and Beichuan Ye’s body numbed, uncontrollably flying backwards, scenery quickly receding on both sides, a blur.

"Retreat quickly!"

The explosion’s shockwave was too fierce, a ring-shaped airwave, causing all but a few to retreat, retreating again several thousand meters. In their view, Ling Chen and Beichuan Ye’s bodies had become two black dots, both crashing through several mountain peaks, their aura diminishing to varying extents.

"Such a powerful shockwave."

The mountain beneath turned to ash instantly; Xuannv, Ling Yin, Unparalleled King and Heaven Exterminating King leapt onto the Void, their Protective True Qi flickering under the residual waves, constantly oscillating.

Yantian shielded Qing Ji before forming a Water Shield, resisting the shockwave, preventing Qing Ji behind from being harmed whatsoever.

"Senior Beichuan Ye’s killer move was broken again by this kid?"

Qing Ji’s mind struggled to process; to her, Beichuan Ye had been her idol since childhood, in her heart invincible. Not only her, but among many female strong youths of Yingzhou, the feeling was mutual.

Now Beichuan Ye’s killer move was repeatedly thwarted by Ling Chen, leaving her incredulous, astonished.

"It’s not yet the last moment, no need to rush, Beichuan-kun will surely win."

An insightful gleam appeared in Yantian’s eyes; he knew Beichuan Ye’s strength well, even at this juncture, Beichuan Ye still had killer moves left. Now, both Ling Chen and Beichuan Ye were at their limits; whoever had cards left to play would be the winner.

"Yes, Senior Beichuan Ye will definitely win!"

Qing Ji instantly regained confidence in Beichuan Ye, refocusing her gaze on the center of Snow Mountain Lake.

"This guy’s trump cards are so abundant, no wonder the Unparalleled King is no match."

Ling Chen’s heart was also shocked by Beichuan Ye’s endless Secret techniques; currently, he was in a full-force state, infinitely more terrifying than Wei Wuxian, undoubtedly the toughest swordsman Ling Chen had ever encountered. Speaking of Wei Wuxian being the Sword Devil, then Beichuan Ye is Sword Unrivaled, and this man’s awakening is far beyond Wei Wuxian’s, for Wei Wuxian was merely a half-hearted Sword Devil, with potential not fully unleashed, while Beichuan Ye likely had delved deep into his sword unrivaled potential.

Of course, if Wei Wuxian fully realized his potential, he wouldn’t necessarily be inferior to Beichuan Ye.

"This kid actually managed to break my Hurricane Vortex."

Beichuan Ye’s formerly calm expression was now heavy as water, understanding now that if he didn’t exert every effort, he might not even harm a single hair of the opponent. It can be said Ling Chen is the greatest obstacle he’s encountered in life, either stumbling over it, bloodied and bruised, or stepping over it, continuing forward.
