Chapter 469: Wielding the Heaven-Sword, Sweeping Away Rivals
Although Xie Xun was blind, his ability to sense direction through sound was unmatched in the world—surpassing countless masters of his time!
“Hmph, quite bold!”
His ears twitched as Xie Xun detected two people emerging from the bamboo forest one after another. Filled with rage, his murderous intent grew intensify!
Zhang Wuji reacted quickly, shouting urgently, “Elder Xie, she’s my friend—she has no ill intentions.”
“Your friend?”
Xie Xun sensed that Zhou Zhiruo’s energy was weak and that she was alone, posing no threat to him. With a cold snort, he tilted his head slightly and noticed Happy aiming at the Heaven-Sword.
After killing dozens of people, someone still dared to show up and covet the Heaven-Sword. Xie Xun swung his wrist, and a golden blade of light shot out from his Dragon Slaying Sword!
Happy continued to aim at the Heaven-Sword at full speed, but kept an eye on Xie Xun’s every move. Seeing Xie Xun’s attention shift away from Zhou Zhiruo, she inwardly groaned—Zhang Wuji truly cared deeply for beautiful women, while someone like her was selectively ignored…
“Who said Zhang Wuji has no selfish motives?”
As she complained, Happy shouted loudly, “Zhang Wuji… Young Master Zhang, please tell Elder Xie that I have no ill intentions! I’m merely acting on behalf of Leader Zhou Zhiruo to temporarily take care of the Heaven-Sword!”
Her tone was neither arrogant nor humble—just firm, righteous, and full of integrity!
Although Zhang Wuji didn’t cooperate, upon hearing someone call his adopted son’s name, seemingly referring to someone nearby, Xie Xun became highly agitated. The deadly blade of light from his Dragon Slaying Sword subsided significantly.
“Do you know my son Wuji?!”
Speaking, he seemed worried about harming this “informed person,” so he restrained his power greatly, losing his destructive momentum.
“A great opportunity!”
Happy was overjoyed. As the golden blade of light flashed toward her, her Golden Bell Shield appeared. At the same time, she grabbed the Heaven-Sword embedded in the ground with her left hand, and a tremendous force pulled it into her grasp.
Boom!
The massive force sent Happy flying into the forest across from her.
But under the eyes of countless players, it was clearly visible that Happy had succeeded—holding the Heaven-Sword as she flew over… Through her torn blue robe, a faint, sleek, metallic yellow glinted.
Success!
Someone had actually managed to steal the Heaven-Sword right under Xie Xun’s nose and escape to a safer area.
“The Heaven-Sword!”
“Damn it!”
“It’s mine.”
“Fight for it!!!”
Inside the bamboo forest, the many players who had initially calmed down under the terrifying might of Xie Xun were instantly thrown into chaos when someone charged in with the Heaven-Sword. Amidst screams, countless well-hidden Night Walkers surged like swarms of locusts toward the brilliantly shining Heaven-Sword!
Swish!
Rip!
In the chaos, it was inevitable that many were left outside. Blades and knives of various colors, along with the sounds of axes and palm strikes, slashed at those in front and nearby. Some also fought in defense!
In short, driven by envy, the bamboo forest became utterly chaotic.
Whoosh…
Bang! Clang!
Boom!
Kaboom!!
Various violent attack sounds intertwined as bamboo trees around were cut down one after another, filled with screams and roars. Wherever the light of the Heaven-Sword shone, there was chaos of swords and blades. Even the most calm players could not remain composed in such turmoil, being dragged into battles they couldn’t control, passively swinging their weapons to defend against or attack nearby players.
Kai Xin, at the heart of this whirlwind, was inevitably drawn in and suffered the greatest impact. Though he had escaped Xie Xun’s grasp and was filled with excitement and joy, he never expected to be surrounded by hundreds of experts in an instant.
People everywhere!!!
Dozens of attacks hit him. Even with the “Rotating Circular Shield” activated, it still caused intense pain—his Life-and-Death Realm martial arts could already harm him, though not severely!
Under the fierce attacks from those players, if it weren’t for the fourth-tier Golden Armor maintaining his posture and balance, Kai Xin would have been knocked dizzy by the onslaught.
Dragon Form!
Avoiding most of the attacks, Kai Xin slithered out of the attack circle and toward the center of the battle like a dragon. His internal energy surged, and the Heaven-Sword in his hand suddenly blazed with intense light!!!
Crisp…
Sharp!!!
Players within twenty meters froze, feeling the chill as if cut by a bone-scraping steel blade.
Swish!!
Countless eyes stared even more intensely at the Heaven-Sword, which emitted an astonishingly sharp light in the bamboo forest!
A divine weapon!
Truly the ultimate divine weapon!
Even before making a move, its sharpness was unstoppable, displaying an overwhelming presence.
Outside the crowd, a few people stared at the person wielding the sword, whose golden armor shone with three-colored light under the Heaven-Sword’s glow. They gasped in shock!
“Run!”
“Hurry up and run!”
Their hoarse warnings sounded weak amidst the rising cries to seize the sword.
“Kill them!”
“Whoever captures the Heaven Sword, I’ll pay ten million to buy it!! Ten million RMB!!!”
A wealthy and powerful voice suddenly rang out from the crowd—the speaker stood outside the fighting area, his eyes fixed ardently, almost obsessively, on the Heaven Sword held in the air. It was clear he was completely awestruck by its power.
Ten million!!!
This statement further enraged the countless martial arts masters in the bamboo forest.
More people gave up pointless fights and rushed toward the Heaven Sword!
It seemed the swordholder was about to be overwhelmed by the multitude of martial arts masters…
Suddenly,
a deep roar, accompanied by a piercing sword energy, erupted like a volcano long suppressed.
Whoosh!
A snow-white sword aura suddenly shot out from the crowd…
In an instant!
At least a dozen people were pierced through by this sword aura!
At that moment, Xie Xun, wielding the Dragon Slaying Sword, felt his ears tremble. With a look of disbelief, he stared in the direction of the battle in the bamboo forest and murmured, “Such a young age, such a low level of internal energy, yet able to activate the will of the Heaven Sword… A genius… truly a genius!”
As if in response to Xie Xun’s words, the snow-white sword aura in the bamboo forest paused for a moment before suddenly sweeping sideways at incredible speed!
Swish swish swish!
The snow-white sword aura instantly swept through dozens of players in all directions!
The bamboo forest was instantly filled with the terrifying snow-white sword aura.
The sword aura moved at great speed,
flitting around and interweaving, moving swiftly!
Wherever it passed, martial arts masters from all directions stopped using their internal energy and froze mid-air, looking bewildered…
In the blink of an eye—
in just one second—the sword aura had advanced nearly twenty meters above the crowd in the bamboo forest!
From counterattack to complete silence in the bamboo forest, the whole process took only two or three seconds.
The moment all the light converged back into the Heaven Sword, the countless martial arts masters in the air were torn apart like pieces of glass, falling to the ground. Within dozens of meters, there was blood everywhere, and not a single person remained!
