Bab 503: The One-Line Swordsman - 503
The One-Line Swordsman's fighting style was unpredictable and apparently unstoppable. The move that Lei Cen used was clearly something extremely advanced, most likely created by the Sword Princess herself.
Perhaps even the Sword Princess at the same level as the One-Line Swordsman would lose. Zhu Yi still had Time Qi, and he had learned a few Space Qi techniques as well.
Space Qi techniques were very good at cutting. However, it would likely fail to do anything that Breaking Through All Things and the Formless Sword could not accomplish.
Zhu Yi's most important trump card was still Instant Completion. No matter what level he was at, it was still an incredible technique.
If he truly struggled to win, then he would use it.
It took a day for the One-Line Swordsman to fully recover his Qi. No matter how powerful he was, he still had to use Qi to maintain his technique.
They stood on opposite sides of the arena, facing each other. Zhu Yi waited, and the battle officially began.
Zhu Yi launched forward, and unexpectedly, so did the One-Line Swordsman. He seemed far more enthusiastic to fight Zhu Yi from the start.
They met in the middle of the arena.
Breaking Through All Things.
Zhu Yi's strongest attack swung at the One-Line Swordsman.
The One-Line Swordsman slashed back with an unknown technique.
At the same time, Zhu Yi felt the presence of a black line behind him with his divine sense. Although it was indeed fast, Zhu Yi was able to respond. Unlike Lei Cen, he didn't have to dodge.
The third level of the Breaking Through All Things technique. This technique can be used without a sword, anywhere.
Breaking Through All Things.
The line was broken through, and Zhu Yi's forward slash did not halt for a single moment.
The One-Line Swordsman, seemingly unfazed, continued swinging. It felt as if time slowed down. A black line appeared on the sword of the One-Line Swordsman.
He directly clashed with Breaking Through All Things, a foolish move.
However…
Both Zhu Yi and the One-Line Swordsman were pushed back. Breaking Through All Things had failed to break through the One-Line Swordsman's attack.
For the first time since entering the tournament, the One-Line Swordsman briefly smiled before returning back to his expressionless face.
Zhu Yi's mind was in a buzz. It was truly impossible to believe it. Breaking Through All Things had failed to break through something.
After a moment, he strengthened his resolve even further than when the battle first started. If the third level of Breaking Through All Things could not do it, then he would reach the 4th level. This was an opportunity at its finest. Where else could he find such a powerful opponent?
Zhu Yi charged forward again, as did the One-Line Swordsman. As he moved forward, Zhu Yi jumped in the air and used the formless sword.
As if he could see them, the One-Line swordsman dodged some and blocked others with the line. For someone wearing a blindfold, he could actually see the Formless Sword, though it was clear that even he struggled to see it.
Zhu Yi got even more excited. Whoever this was, he was the greatest opponent that Zhu Yi had ever fought.
In the stands, Zhou Fan sat in the crowd like a normal person. Even if a god realm cultivator saw him, he would simply look like a strong viewer.
The seats around him were empty, until a man came and sat next to Zhou Fan.
"Your disciple is strong." Ying Xiong said. He was no longer bald, perhaps a product of countless reincarnations.
"I believe he can reach any heights given the tools." Zhou Fan said.
Ying Xiong agreed. "But my disciple isn't too bad either, is he?"
As Zhou Fan had predicted, the One-Line Swordsman was a disciple of Ying Xiong. Otherwise, why would such a strong person be involved in a Sword Sect tournament.
"Believe it or not, he's only my disciple in theory. I've given him cultivation resources, but he always refused most of my help. Like me, he believes that everything should be earned by oneself. His One-Line Divine Physique was not always so incredible. It was him that created a technique to complement it, making him one of the strongest void traversing realm cultivators in the entire universe, and he did it without any help from me." Ying Xiong said. It was clear that his disciple was a great source of pride.
"My disciple isn't bad either. Although everything he has was given by me, I feel that nobody but him could have possibly brought me this far. Even today, I feel that it is impossible for him to lose." Zhou Fan said.
"Because of Time Qi?" Ying Xiong asked.
Although almost nobody in the universe could even sense Time Qi, Ying Xiong could. Who else had experienced so much time. Perhaps only Heaven.
"No. Not because of Time Qi. It was how he grew. He came into contact with invincibility from the start."
"Chen Jie." Ying Xiong interjected.
"Exactly. It changed how he grew, whether he realized it or not."
Zhou Fan looked at Zhu Yi fighting with pride.
"I can proudly say that his name is Zhu Yi, and he will never lose."
Zhu Yi clashed with the One-Line Swordsman once again. It felt as if Breaking Through All Things had gotten stronger. He was only sent flying back a few steps, but the One-Line Swordsman was sent back even farther than before.
Once again, the One-Line Swordsman briefly smiled, slightly longer this time.
Zhu Yi pressed on. He had the advantage. Breaking Through All Things was used as he chased the One-Line Swordsman. The One-Line Swordsman did not back off. He continued to charge, his line always causing Zhu Yi to be distracted.
Perhaps the One-Line Swordsman felt Zhu Yi becoming stronger and stronger, but when he was sent flying, he seemed to purposely go back farther. He flew in the air as he "looked" at Zhu Yi.
"You are good. Very good." The One-Line Swordsman spoke.
