Nine Revolutions Star Technique

Chapter 774 - 773: The True Spring and Autumn Sword!

After all, he is a Human Immortal Ninth Layer!

If Han Buxiu truly stepped into this realm, he would only need to raise his hand to easily control the entire Life and Death Lake. Unlike now, where even if he exhausts his energy and depletes his life's cultivation, he can barely manipulate thirty percent of it.

The Spiritual Energy within the Valley of Life and Death is truly scarce.

He sat by the Life and Death Lake for three years, barely reaching the Human Immortal Eighth Layer. But he couldn't take that last step no matter what, only able to mobilize his Qi Blood for a brief power he shouldn't control!

"Boom!"

As Han Buxiu raised his hand and pushed.

The entire Life and Death Lake shook violently, emitting a thunderous roar. The spectators felt as if the entire world was shaking in that instant, like a heaven-shattering event!

That peerless long sword, under the shocked gazes of the crowd, burst forth like a comet streaking across the sky, unstoppable and unmatched!

"Han Buxiu is going all out!"

The crowd exclaims in amazement.

With this final grasp and push, Han Buxiu expended nearly all his strength. He could barely stand, seeming as if he might fall from the sky at any moment. With the sword's edge out, there's no room to turn back for he cannot manage another attack!

"Can Mr. Ye withstand this sword?"

Zheng Jiuling clenched his fist, his mind astounded to the extreme. Zhao Dejin and others were similarly tense, their hearts about to explode under the overwhelming pressure.

Boom!

This ferocious sword swept across the heavens, and even before the sword edge arrived, an overwhelming sword aura had already engulfed the area, invisible sword Qi tearing through the void, raising a boundless mist of white.

The sword's edge stretched forward, supporting itself against a vast arc of flames in the void space, falling from the sky like a doomsday comet, terrifying many to the extreme!

At this moment, facing this apocalyptic-beckoning sword, Han Buxiu's unrivaled attack after three years of practice, Ye Qingchen's eyes brimmed with battle intent.

"Good!"

He nodded slightly, pinching a gesture with his right hand, softly commanding:

"Rise!"

Clang!

A fierce sword cry suddenly reverberated.

This sword obtained from the Withered Forest, after slicing through countless Human Immortals, the Star Sword finally unsheathed!

As the sword emerged, it was as if an incredibly bright Star River emerged between heaven and earth. Under the shocked eyes of spectators, Ye Qingchen slowly extended fingers to grasp the Star Sword.

At this moment, his aura underwent a drastic change, as if he grasped the entire universe!

"Boom!"

Suddenly.

Gales rose across the heavens, with thunder echoing amid the skies!

"Today, with this Great Freedom Heaven-Trapping Sword, I shall face your Spring and Autumn Sword Scripture!"

Having declared this.

Ye Qingchen became a whirlwind alongside the Star Sword, rushing into the sky directly to confront the water sword spanning the heavens!

Screech!

Under the stunned gaze of the crowd.

Their attacks seemed like two annihilating whirlwinds colliding instantly over the firmament. Compared to this giant water sword, Ye Qingchen appeared as insignificant as dust.

From everyone's perspective, this strike promised no suspense; yet, the result turned out quite contrary.

Clang!

Amidst an intimidating explosion, Ye Qingchen's sword cut in half the dreadful water sword, which scattered amidst the waves, leaving the Star Sword at the Breaking Army Sword!

This was indeed the Heaven-defying Sword!

Driven by Ye Qingchen's Human Immortal Fifth Layer cultivation, building upon the Nine Revolutions Star Technique, Ancient Star Technique, and Sword Spirit, it defies imagination of ordinary mortals. Even top-tier immortals would feel inadequate at this sight!

"Victory!"

"Ha ha, Mr. Ye won!"

Zheng Jiuling laughed heartily.

Zhao Dejin and others also showed delight.

They had persevered in anticipation of this outcome.

And the other spectators, too, widened their eyes. Could it be true that Han Buxiu's Human Immortal Ninth Layer-driven Spring and Autumn Sword Scripture truly fell against Ye Qingchen's Heaven-defying Sword? Could the decisive outcome truly be dictated by this sword?

In their view.

The peerless water sword shattered, and finally, only a three-foot Breaking Army Sword remained—how could it possibly withstand Ye Qingchen's Heaven-defying sword edge? Mere moments would reveal the victor.

Yet an unbelievable scene unfolded.

The Breaking Army Sword, nearly swallowed by sword Qi, suddenly emitted a blinding light like an overhead sun, with unlimited golden radiance, threatening to engulf the Star Sword completely.

"Boom!"

Simultaneously, the Breaking Army Sword energy surged, forcibly breaking through the Heaven-defying Sword's edge. Astonishingly, under countless incredulous gazes, it overwhelmed Ye Qingchen.

Following this, the Breaking Army Sword's sword Qi amplified, crushing Ye Qingchen from the sky to the ground!

"How is this possible?"

The crowd exclaimed in disbelief.

They had thought Han Buxiu utterly defeated; how could he reverse fortune at the brink of defeat?

Only to hear Han Buxiu laugh heartily:

"Ye Qingchen, did you really think my Spring and Autumn Sword Scripture was so simple? Five hundred years for spring, five hundred years for autumn! That immense water sword was but a scabbard!"

"This is my true Spring and Autumn Sword!"

"So, this is how it is!"

The spectators all exclaimed in realization.

This Spring and Autumn Sword, being a Saint Tier Swordsmanship, could it merely be creating a sword of water? Five hundred years for spring, five hundred for autumn; an entire Spring and Autumn, though eons pass, this sword remains unchanged!

That sky-spanning water sword was merely a scabbard!

"Boom!"

Under this heaven-cleaving sword, Ye Qingchen couldn't withstand the power. Under the astonished gaze of many, he was crushed from the heavens to the ground.

Furthermore, with this sword, the entire universe seemed to be drawn in, transforming into a cataclysmic flood, fiercely engulfing Ye Qingchen within it. Underfoot, the ground exploded, layer by layer disintegrating!

Rumble!

In an instant.

A terrifying explosion erupted, causing a fearsome blend of heaven and earth-shaking sounds amidst the cosmic inversion.

A forceful Qi spread alongside the explosive sounds in all directions, with a vast momentum like an unleashing of an immense army, cascading forth. From a distance, this heaven-shocking wave swept across the sky, spanning hundreds of miles!

The entire Life and Death Lake was leveled into a wasteland, becoming scorched earth. Mountains beyond the lake, whether hundreds or thousands of feet high, were obliterated into dust.

The numerous Human Immortals watching were, like drifting duckweed amid giant waves, catapulted away instantly.

They scrambled to their feet, staring dumbfounded at the vanished Life and Death Lake, unable to trust their own eyes.

"Who won?"

Someone asked.

"It seems Han Buxiu won!" Someone noted, seeing Han Buxiu barely standing aloft, stating hoarsely: "The Spring and Autumn Sword Scripture is originally Saint Tier Swordsmanship, and Han Buxiu, driven by Human Immortal Ninth Layer, exerted an overwhelming power!"

The onlookers unanimously nodded in agreement.

After all.

They had seen with their own eyes when Ye Qingchen was propelled from the sky to the ground.

"What a pity!" Some sighed, lamenting, "With Ye Qingchen's talent and potential, had he practiced as Han Buxiu did for three years, the victory might have been his!"

"Is Mr. Ye truly dead?"

Zheng Jiuling, pale-faced, retreated several steps repeatedly.

Zhao Dejin and the others fell silent, hearts sinking into despair.

Amidst heaven and earth, Han Buxiu heaved a long breath, showing a content expression. Unexpectedly, his gaze deformed, his expression changed as though seeing a ghost—right in the midst of complete ruins stood a figure.

And the invincible Breaking Army Sword was intercepted by the Star Sword, and incredulously, under everyone's astonished eyes, it shattered into dust, scattered by the wind into nothingness!

The figure, silver-haired in blue, eyes radiant like torches, exuded a domineering aura akin to a Divine Demon!

It was none other than Ye Qingchen.

In an instant, the vast Valley of Life and Death fell silent, enveloped by deathly stillness.
