Xuanyuan Chao’s words were lamenting that ‘only with an evenly matched opponent can one realize their mistakes and thus improve and grow’.

Ye Jingtang understood what he meant. He lowered his hands naturally and replied calmly, “If not for the storm back then that extinguished the spirit of young saber users, the current Jun Mountain Terrace would have been full of heroes and had hundreds of flowers blooming.

“The reason why the saber users of Jianghu are in such a poor state today is not that there are fewer people practicing the saber in Jianghu but because you, the leader of the saber users, are not worthy of being admired and chased by young people.”

“Sigh…” Xuanyuan Chao was over 70 years old and had long understood the rights and wrongs of his life. What he wanted now was nothing more than a carefree slash. Without saying anything else, he strode forward toward Ye Jingtang.

Thump, thump!

Heavy footsteps sounded under the rain again.

Mist covered Ye Jingtang’s entire body. His body was as still as a pine tree, and the fanaticism in his eyes had already turned into his usual tranquility.

Boom!

A bolt of lightning tore through the sky.

Xuanyuan Chao’s footsteps became faster and faster. When he was 100 feet away, he suddenly exerted strength in his feet, and his majestic figure bent and shot forward, instantly breaking through the rain. The long saber in his left hand slashed at Ye Jingtang’s center.

This saber was also unbelievably fast!

Xuanyuan Chao could see through the ins and outs of Ye Jingtang’s saber technique. Ye Jingtang also saw through the trick of this saber technique at a glance. It was using the method of the ‘Bowing Saber Spring’, changing the saber spring to a human spring, greatly increasing the speed of the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade’s starting stance.

This improvement was very exquisite. This was because Ye Jingtang had only thought of using the saber in his left and right hands. He had never considered using his waist and legs to make the saber in his hand, which had already reached its limit, move faster.

Although this saber move wasn’t as terrifying as Ye Jingtang’s self-harming method, the advantage was that there was no self-harm. And it was indeed enough to break the Dragon Slaying Decree.

Unfortunately, Ye Jingtang didn’t use the normal Dragon Slaying Decree but the new version of the Dragon Slaying Decree that he had developed yesterday when he was improving the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade with the same idea.

“Haa!”

At the same time that Xuanyuan Chao raised his hand, Ye Jingtang took a step back with his left foot and held the hilt of the saber behind his back with both hands. The exposed skin all over his body instantly flushed red, and the muscles and veins all over his body bulged. Blood even flowed out of the corners of his eyes.

Boom!

The violent, rushing qi instantly pushed away the rain and shattered the bricks on the ground, clearing a vacuum in the surrounding area.

The Jun Mountain Saber hanging on his back also sprung up in the blink of an eye and slashed forward at a crazy speed.

Even people who didn’t know this martial arts could tell that Ye Jingtang had injured all the meridians in his body the moment he raised his saber. All his bones and muscles were definitely damaged.

But this didn’t hinder the earth-shattering destructive power of his saber move.

Xuanyuan Chao erupted with all his strength and rushed in front of Ye Jingtang at the fastest speed in his life. But he couldn’t bypass the One-Step Retreat, Bowing Saber Spring that he had spent decades researching!

Ye Jingtang’s half-step back was like a natural chasm in front of him. No matter how hard he tried to squeeze his body, waiting in front of him was the Jun Mountain Saber slashing down on his head without giving him any chance.

It was also at this moment that Xuanyuan Chao understood how Kuang Yazi felt when facing him back then, as well as how all saber users felt when facing the Jun Mountain Saber.

It was irresistible despair!

It was as if a high mountain were pressing down on him. He tried his best, but he couldn’t escape the range of the calamity. He could only watch helplessly as this ten-thousand-foot-high mountain smashed into him.

This was undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and violent saber techniques in the world.

Even if he couldn’t break the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade, they were still evenly matched. It depended on who was using the saber.

If he had seen this saber move when he was young, he would probably have been obsessed with it for the rest of his life…

But now, why did he see this saber move from the hands of someone else?!

This was his saber…

Boom!

The two blades collided, and the raindrops filling the sky were shaken back into the sky.

A strong saber wind wreaked havoc, instantly flattening a layer of bricks on the ground.

Xuanyuan Chao, who had stood tall for a lifetime, whether on the battlefield or in Jianghu, was no different from all the saber users who received the Dragon Slaying Decree.

Under the terrifying power that could split mountains and break seas, Xuanyuan Chao’s majestic figure couldn’t stand still at all. The back of his saber smashed into his forearm, and he fell backward to the ground.

Boom!

Debris flew everywhere on the io,ooo-square-foot stone platform, and a huge pit was instantly smashed in the center.

The half-armored Xuanyuan Chao flew out of the pit diagonally, fell to the ground, and slid hundreds of feet along the smooth platform.

“Haa!” Ye Jingtang’s saber followed without any gaps. He flew over again, dragged the saber with both hands, spun around, and slashed at Xuanyuan Chao.

Swoosh!

Xuanyuan Chao’s reaction was extremely fast. He flipped over and dodged to the side, dodging the dangerous blade, but then the next attack came.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, the terrifying sound that made thousands of Jianghu saber users treat it as a nightmare sounded again on Jun Mountain Terrace.

Ye Jingtang’s body spun with his saber, and in an instant, he turned into a windmill. From afar, people could only see the circular, bright saber light, but they couldn’t figure out where the saber was.

The torrential rain on Jun Mountain Platform was also stirred into a vortex by the spiral qi. It was like a waterspout that moved rapidly on the platform.

Xuanyuan Chao’s huge, over-two-meter-tall body appeared tiny in front of the vast power of heaven. But his movements were still as fast as lightning as he quickly moved and dodged on the platform, but he had no way to touch the heavy saber that was chasing after him anymore.

There were nearly ten thousand people around Jun Mountain Terrace. Be it those who were knowledgeable or not, they all knew that the outcome had been decided.

The saber momentum of the Dragon Slaying Decree basically made it invincible. If people wanted to fight against it, they could only use long weapons.

Ye Jingtang had accumulated the momentum of the saber to such a terrifying extent that people couldn’t see it clearly. Not to mention Xuanyuan Chao, even if Ye Jingtang used his improved Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade, if he dared to take advantage of a loophole to attack, he would probably exchange death for death..
