Chapter 437: Chapter 433: Celestial Cry Sword
The moment the Celestial Extinction Sword was unleashed, the very air turned incredibly sharp. The onlookers felt as if their skin was being pricked by needles.
A spiral of Sword Qi spun forth. As it rotated, it pulled in the surrounding air, forming a Tornado Sword Qi.
This Tornado Sword Qi rapidly expanded. In just a few breaths, it had transformed into a colossal cyclone that connected heaven and earth, pressing down on Ning Jiang like a celestial pillar.
Before the Sword Qi even landed, an immense pressure descended first. The entire Kunwu Mountain Peak felt as if the atmosphere had solidified. It was like being at the bottom of the deepest sea, where the pressure was so astounding it could crush a steel plate into a thin sheet.
Under such pressure, an ordinary person would struggle to even lift a finger.
But Ning Jiang, with his Nine Tribulations Celestial Thunder Body at the Great Success stage, possessed a supremely powerful physique. He stood there completely unaffected.
"Divine Sword Technique, second form—Sword Breaks the Sky."
An incomparably dazzling radiance burst from Ning Jiang’s sword. Waves of Sword Qi rippled outward in all directions.
As he unleashed this attack, a Heaven-Reaching beam of light shot up from the ground and collided with the immense Tornado Sword Qi.
"CRACK! CRACK!"
The Sword Auras clashed violently, shattering inch by inch with the sound of grinding blades.
"I never would have thought that here in the Six Eastern Provinces, there exists a Sword Technique that can rival the Celestial Sword Technique."
"Is the Celestial Sword Technique’s title as the number one Sword Technique of the Six Eastern Provinces about to be challenged?"
Everyone watched this unfold in astonishment.
Even Ling Tianxu’s eyes flashed with a strange light. He hadn’t expected Ning Jiang’s Sword Technique to be in no way inferior to the Celestial Sword Technique. ’Where did he even get a Sword Technique like this?’ he wondered.
"Celestial Sword Technique, third form—Celestial Star Sword!"
Ling Tianxu swung his arm, and the Destruction Sword flew high into the sky, piercing through the clouds.
A moment later, the Destruction Sword plummeted like a falling star. In mid-air, it vibrated nine times, transforming into nine streams of Meteor Sword Qi.
"WHOOSH..."
The Sword Qi’s friction with the air at such high speeds even caused it to ignite into raging flames.
The power of each of these nine streams of Sword Qi was barely inferior to the sword itself. Their might left many of the spectating Earth Martial Realm experts horrified.
Any single one of them could kill an Earth Martial Realm expert!
With this move alone, Ling Tianxu was worthy of looking down on all his peers.
But Ning Jiang stood his ground, his expression unchanged. An unprecedented, world-stunning radiance emanated from his Thunder Punishment Sword.
"Divine Sword Technique, third form—Sword Suppressing Sun and Moon."
He brought his sword down.
A brilliant light filled the entire sky; the splendor of this attack was beyond words. The sun and moon paled in its presence. It was as if, in that moment, nothing existed in the world but this single sword strike.
"It’s that move!"
Many people cried out in alarm.
When Ning Jiang had faced the Extreme Heaven Sect and fought the Extreme Heaven Monarch, he had used this very move to force the True Monarch to concede. Many people present today had been there to witness it, and the memory of this technique was deeply etched in their minds.
Ning Jiang’s Sword Qi shot out in a straight line, as thin as autumn water.
Upon contact, the nine streams of Sword Qi falling like meteors shattered one after another. Finally, the body of the Destruction Sword itself slammed into the thread-like Sword Qi.
"CLANG!"
With a sharp ring, the Destruction Sword was sent flying back into Ling Tianxu’s hand.
Yet Ning Jiang’s attack still held thirty percent of its power as it continued to sweep outward.
"Hmph."
Ling Tianxu snorted coldly. He formed a sword seal with his left hand and slashed through the air, conjuring a brilliant rainbow of sword light that coiled toward Ning Jiang like a Flood Dragon.
He possessed the Innate Sword King Body, and the Sword Qi within him was immensely powerful. A casual point of his finger was stronger than an ordinary Sword Cultivator’s full-on sword strike.
This finger strike, which contained all his power, successfully shattered the remnants of the Sword Suppressing Sun and Moon technique.
However, this scene left many in disbelief.
In the first two exchanges, it was impossible to determine a winner; they were evenly matched. But with this third clash, it was clear that Ning Jiang’s technique was a notch stronger.
It had taken both a sword strike and a finger strike from Ling Tianxu to nullify Ning Jiang’s single attack.
Didn’t this mean that the Divine Sword Technique was stronger than the Celestial Sword Technique?
"Could it be that the Celestial Sword Technique’s title as the number one Sword Technique is about to be lost?"
The crowd exclaimed in shock.
Far away in the void, the Celestial Sword King’s gaze turned slightly colder. He had never imagined that another Sword Technique in the Six Eastern Provinces could surpass the Celestial Sword Technique.
’I’m growing more and more curious about this boy,’ the Celestial Sword King thought. ’Besides that all-devouring Cultivation Technique, his Sword Technique is also Top Level. What secrets is he hiding?’
Ling Tianxu’s gaze was as frigid as ice.
When he used the first three forms of his Celestial Sword Technique, absolutely no one in the younger generation of the Six Eastern Provinces should have been able to withstand them. Yet Ning Jiang had not only taken them but had even gained the upper hand.
As the bearer of the Sword King Body, he had been outmatched by Ning Jiang in both the earlier duel of Sword Techniques and the current clash of sword moves.
The fury in his heart blazed ever hotter. All over his body, streams of golden Sword Qi erupted from his pores.
"Celestial Sword One Point!"
Ling Tianxu’s finger was like a sword as he slowly pressed it down toward Ning Jiang.
"RUMBLE..."
The winds howled and the clouds churned. Before everyone’s shocked gazes, an unbelievably turbulent surge of Sword Qi erupted from Ling Tianxu, and a fierce storm of Sword Qi swept through the area.
At the same time, all the Spiritual Qi within dozens of miles instantly surged toward him as if he were the epicenter.
Slowly, a colossal blade of Sword Qi, hundreds of yards long, condensed above Ling Tianxu’s head. It released a scathing Sword Qi that enveloped the entire Kunwu Mountain Peak in its terrifying aura.
This terrifying display of power made everyone’s face drain of color.
"Ning Jiang, die."
With a grave expression, Ling Tianxu pressed his finger down.
A bizarre spectacle appeared in the sky.
As the giant blade of Sword Qi descended, the very air parted before it like a receding tide.
This Celestial Sword One Point was an ultimate technique of the Celestial Sword Sect. It consisted of only a single move, but its power surpassed even the third form of the Celestial Sword Technique.
"A petty trick."
Ning Jiang’s gaze was calm as he shot straight into the sky. He gripped the Thunder Punishment Sword, let out a long cry, and transformed into a Heaven-Reaching Sword Light, charging toward the colossal blade of Sword Qi.
The crowd’s eyes widened. They watched as the two attacks collided, and the colossal, hundreds-of-yards-long blade of Sword Qi shattered inch by inch before Ning Jiang.
"Go!"
Just then, Ling Tianxu guided his sword with a hand seal.
"Celestial Sword Technique, fourth form—Celestial Cry Sword!"
SHIIING!
The Destruction Sword suddenly transformed into a blaze of rosy light, condensed to its absolute limit, and slashed toward Ning Jiang.
As this attack appeared, the wails of ghosts and howls of wolves seemed to faintly echo between heaven and earth. It was a strike that would make the heavens themselves weep and tremble.
When the many experts from the Celestial Sword Sect saw this move, their expressions changed drastically.
"I can’t believe Celestial Void has already mastered the Celestial Cry Sword."
"The Celestial Cry Sword is the strongest move in the Earth Chapter of the Celestial Sword Technique. It took me a full twenty years to comprehend this technique back then, but Celestial Void has been practicing the Celestial Sword Technique for less than a year. To think he has already grasped this form... he is truly worthy of the Sword King Body."
A True Monarch of the Heaven-Reaching Realm from the Celestial Sword Sect exclaimed, amazed by Ling Tianxu’s talent.
"A fine move!"
Faced with a strike that sent a chill down countless spines, Ning Jiang did not retreat. Instead, he advanced.
