Chapter 258: Chapter 258: A Golden Core Peak Dies

The Cyan Cloud Elders wielded two Flying Swords, one cyan and one red. The moment they were unleashed, they transformed into two menacing Sword Light Flood Dragons, pouncing on the black Sword Light in unison.

Meanwhile, Yu Wan summoned a pair of Golden Rings that rapidly expanded to ten feet in circumference. They descended from above her head, spinning continuously to form two golden barriers that firmly sealed her within.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

In the next instant, the three streams of Sword Light collided violently, erupting in a series of metallic clashes. Dazzling curtains of light and shockwaves pulsed outward, spreading fiercely in all directions.

Following the clash, not only did the Two Cyan and Red Flying Swords fail to disperse their opponent’s Sword Light, but their own light dimmed as they were knocked back relentlessly.

The black Sword Light, however, remained unchanged, and even seemed to grow stronger with every exchange.

"This... How is this possible?"

Yu Wan and the two elders were aghast. They clearly had not anticipated this outcome.

’He’s fighting two of us at once without even showing himself, yet he’s still gaining the upper hand?’

’It seems we’ve all underestimated him!’

In the distance, Xiao Yunhong, the Cangwu Twin Sisters, and the others were equally astonished.

"That’s Sword Essence, and it’s a Lifebound Magical Treasure Flying Sword! Our opponent is a true Sword Cultivator!"

The Cyan Cloud Elders were worldly and experienced, and they quickly discerned some of the truth, which only horrified them further.

"It’s fine! So what if he’s a Sword Cultivator? He’s only at the Golden Core Late Stage and he’s alone. He’s absolutely no match for us!"

"That’s right. It’s time to show him our true power—the unison of our twin swords!"

But these two Golden Core Peak cultivators were no ordinary men. They instantly regained their composure, and even began to sneer with renewed disdain.

Then, they performed a Sword Technique in unison, and their two Flying Swords once again erupted with dazzling light.

The Sword Light Flood Dragons reappeared, but this time they did not fight separately. Instead, they circled each other as they advanced, and the Mighty Power of their Sword Light instantly surged.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

In the next instant, the Sword Lights clashed violently once more. But soon, the cyan and red Flying Swords were forced back to their original forms, their light dimming as they were sent flying, while the black Sword Light remained as powerful as ever.

"How can this be?"

"This is impossible!"

The smiles that had just appeared on the faces of the three Cyan Cloud Sect members instantly froze.

’Good heavens, even their combined sword attack was broken?’

’This person’s power is just too immense, isn’t it?’

Xiao Yunhong and the others stared wide-eyed.

Like the trio from the Cyan Cloud Sect, they had all thought their opponent would fall to the combined sword attack. Only now did they realize how wrong they were.

"Again!"

"I refuse to believe we can’t stop you!"

The Cyan Cloud Elders gritted their teeth and spat out two mouthfuls of Essence Blood. After absorbing the blood, the light of their two Flying Swords surged once more as they shot forward, but they were quickly struck again, sent flying backward with a pitiful whine.

And the opponent’s Sword Light drew even closer to the trio.

"It’s no use! We have to summon our Golden Cores!"

"Junior Sister Yu, be ready! If we still can’t match him, you must retreat immediately!"

Growing more horrified, the Cyan Cloud Elders could only open their mouths and summon their Golden Cores. The light from the Golden Cores flowed onto their two Flying Swords, instantly boosting the swords’ Mighty Power to its absolute limit.

"As expected of the Cyan Cloud Twin Swords. Their reputation is well-deserved!"

"Indeed, but their opponent seems even stronger. After all, he hasn’t resorted to such desperate measures!"

Even from a distance, Xiao Yunhong and the others could clearly feel the astonishing sharpness emanating from the twin swords.

This time, the twin swords finally managed to block the black Sword Light, and even seemed to gain the upper hand.

At the same time, they finally saw the sword itself: a black Low Grade Magical Treasure Flying Sword, its surface burning with black Demon Flame and wreathed in specks of starlight.

PHEW!

The three from the Cyan Cloud Sect finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu Wan in particular was pale with fright. Even though they had blocked the Flying Sword, her heart was still pounding with fear.

The two Golden Core Peak cultivators were also quite embarrassed.

They had boasted so loudly before, and now they had been completely humiliated.

Forget killing their opponent; just blocking his Flying Sword required every ounce of their strength.

"Fellow Daoists from the Profound Yin Sect and the Cangwu Sect, what are you standing there gaping for? Hurry up and help us!"

"If you help us, our Cyan Cloud Sect will not forget this kindness!"

"That’s right! What happened before was just a small misunderstanding. I, Yu Wan, apologize to you all, but now..."

But even then, the trio felt uneasy.

Because even though the black Flying Sword was at a disadvantage, it was only a slight one. It remained locked in a fierce, inseparable struggle with the two cyan and red Flying Swords. Every so often, it would make an unpredictable move, shaking off the two swords to continue its forward assault.

This forced the Cyan Cloud Elders to go all out, giving their undivided attention just to maintain their slight advantage.

And although Yu Wan hadn’t attacked, with her level of Cultivation and Combat Power, she clearly couldn’t participate in a battle of this magnitude.

Fortunately, there were still Observing Cultivators in the distance, so the Cyan Cloud Sect trio immediately called for help, with Yu Wan even swallowing her pride to do so.

"This..."

Xiao Yunhong, the Cangwu Twin Sisters, and the others were taken aback.

They didn’t want to help, but felt it would be improper not to. Yet helping also felt wrong.

After all, they wanted to offend neither the Cyan Cloud Sect nor the mysterious Cultivator and whatever power he might have backing him.

RUMBLE!

Fortunately, in the next instant, the decision was taken out of their hands.

Because even if they had rushed to the rescue, they would have been too late. Before they could act, six more silver-white streams of Sword Light shot over with incredible speed.

"Not good!"

"Junior Sister, run!"

The faces of the Cyan Cloud Elders changed drastically. They frantically sent a Divine Thought to warn Yu Wan.

It took all their strength to block a single stream of Sword Light, let alone six more.

Moreover, these six new streams of Sword Light were just as powerful, emitting the same Magical Power fluctuations as the black one.

In other words, their opponent could simultaneously wield seven Magical Treasure Flying Swords, and was able to unleash the full Mighty Power of each one.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The silver-white Flying Swords landed around the trio, joining the black Flying Sword to form a Sword Array.

Brilliant starlight descended from the distant cosmos, piercing through the void to land upon the seven Flying Swords. The swords immediately began to fly in a furious pattern, and the Sword Array was instantly filled with a blinding Sword Light.

The Sword Light bombarded them. In an instant, the cyan and red Flying Swords dimmed and fell from the sky, and cracks even appeared on the two Golden Cores.

"We’ll fight you to the death!"

The Cyan Cloud Elders grew even more terrified, sinking into absolute despair. Yet, this despair paradoxically calmed them.

Then, they prepared to detonate their Golden Cores, intending to take the Sword Array down with them.

SWISH! SWISH!

But it was too late. With a single flash of Sword Light, all their Protective Measures shattered. The light then pierced their brows, killing them on the spot.

At the same time, Yu Wan was also bombarded by the Sword Light. The Golden Rings around her instantly shattered.

Next, a huge black iron shield was knocked away in a few strikes. Then, a Golden Bell Light Shield was shattered as well.

The Golden Bell Light Shield was the effect of a Tier Three Peak Golden Bell Talisman, and the black iron shield was a Middle Grade Defensive Magical Treasure.

Clearly, Yu Wan had not been idle, having already deployed more than one defensive measure.

As a Middle Grade Magical Treasure, the black iron shield’s defenses were powerful; even after being sent flying by the Sword Light, it did not shatter.

SWOOSH!

Using the time bought by these three layers of defense, Yu Wan, enveloped in a five-colored light, finally vanished from the spot.
