Inside the Ancestor Tombs, Chu Kuangren and Mingyue Wuxiaâs aura clashed as their Great Daos were fighting against each other. Chu Kuangren sensed something strange in Mingyue Wuxiaâs Great Dao. There was a sense of razor-sharp qi that far surpassed Dugu Bupo. However, she hid it deep and well. If not for Chu Kuangrenâs outstanding and keen senses, he might not even notice it. Mingyue Wuxia was great at hiding herself.
He pointed his sword hand sign and activated the Immovable Enlightenment Kingâs Sword Seal.
He cast the Endless Sin Repentance immediately.
The slash was absolutely powerful. In response, Mingyue Wuxia released a surge of energy fluctuations, and it started to merge with the realm around her. The power of heaven and earth gave her a boost. She pushed her hands forward and released her Daoist law energy in the form of a Taiji symbol. It was the magical part of the Heavenly Human Art. Not only could it merge with heaven and earth, but it also allowed its user to merge with the realm and siphon the realmâs energy to boost her own Immortal Technique or divine abilities.
The moment the Taiji symbol clashed with the sword qi, the spiritual qi in the area surged and erupted.
The terrifying energy impacted the Infinity Domain.
âMy Sword Dao is no match to Brother Chuâs,â Mingyue Wuxia said.
âSave your flattery,â Chu Kuangren said as he drew his Descendant Self Sword.
As he wielded his sword, his vast sword intent shook heaven and earth.
The Descendant Self Swordâs blade rang subtly as if it had sensed how powerful its opponent was and was eager to fight her. Mingyue Wuxia glanced at the Descendant Self Sword and praised it. âA sword with a sword spirit is rare. Itâs a good sword.â All weapons had their own spirit. However, there were many cases across the Infiniverse where once a weaponâs spirit gained consciousness, it would turn on its master. Therefore, many cultivators chose to wipe the weaponâs spirit for the sake of better control, making the weapons into pure tools for battle. As the practice went on, many weapons were without a spirit.
Chu Kuangrenâs Descendant Self Sword was an exception.
On top of that, the Descendant Self Swordâs spirit was born with a blank slate, and it continued to grow with Chu Kuangren. As Chu Kuangren grew stronger, the sword spirit continued to match his power, hence complementing each other. Mingyue Wuxia looked at Chu Kuangren and the Descendant Self Sword with praise. Her eyes even showed a hint of reminiscence. Chu Kuangren was confused when he noticed it. Why reminiscence? However, instead of looking deeper into it, he hurled a slash at her.
Sword qi gushed forward, wreaking havoc across the land.
Mingyue Wuxia controlled the energy of the realm to counter the sword qi.
In just a few seconds, they had exchanged more than a hundred attacks. They hurled all kinds of mystical cultivation techniques at each other.
The other cultivators further away were in awe of the exchange.
âI didnât expect Mingyue Wuxia to be so strong to have that many exchanges with Chu Kuangren. No wonder sheâs the first on the Divine Maiden Leaderboard.â
âYeah, itâs such a surprise.â
The top Monarch Seeds like Dugu Bupo, Chi Ying, and the others could not even take one or two hits from Chu Kuangren, yet Mingyue Wuxia was able to counter more than a hundred of Chu Kuangrenâs attacks. It proved she was a lot stronger than the others.
âThe Heavenly Human Art is indeed unmatched, but itâs too bad your body has a limit, and you canât hold the sheer weight of heaven and earth. How long can you last while channeling the unlimited power of heaven and earth with your limited strength?â Chu Kuangren said. He unleashed another sword attack and blasted Mingyue Wuxia away. The attack almost destroyed her Great Dao.
It somehow worked similarly to Chu Kuangrenâs Heaven-devouring Technique.
âBrother Chu, you are indeed powerful.â
Mingyue Wuxia could sense her energy rapidly leaving her body.
After a brief exchange, the battle intent in her was aroused.
âHeavenly Human Art, Yin Yang Realm Crusher!â Mingyue Wuxia pushed her hands forward, unleashing the energy of her Yin Yang Great Dao.
Her left hand possessed the energy of Yin, and it transformed into a beautiful moon. Its brilliance shone like flowing water, frosty and beautiful.
Her right hand possessed the energy of Yang, and it transformed into a sun burning in golden flame. The air around the golden sun was scorched. Even the void was distorted.
Yin and Yang transformed into the sun and moon.
As she pushed the energy forward, the sun and moon were hurled at Chu Kuangren.
The Yin and Yang energy intertwined with the Yin Yang Great Dao Law energy contained inside.
It was a terrifying attack.
It was also one of the strongest attacks of the Heavenly Human Art and one of the best Hongmeng cultivation techniques. Its power was close to the level of an Ultimate-level cultivation technique.
âAmong all the human cultivators, youâre the only one worthy of my attention,â Chu Kuangren said.
He held the Descendant Self Sword tightly and unleashed sword intents that filled the sky. It was Sword Twenty-four! Compared to the Immovable Enlightenment Kingâs Sword Seal, which he had yet to master, the Sword Twenty-four was a much better choice because he could utilize the techniqueâs full potential.
Endless sword qi gushed forward like a world-ending storm.
When the sword qi and Yin Yang energy clashed, an explosion erupted.
The blinding Immortal Sparks shrouded the entire realm.
As the powerful shockwave from the clash expanded, Chu Kuangren and Mingyue Wuxia were both pushed backward.
The shockwave also stripped Mingyue Wuxia of her face veil, revealing her exquisite face.
Her eyes were clear and bright as stars; her cheek was fair as the moonâs brilliance, capturing all eyes with her unrivaled beauty.
She was as perfect as the moonâs brilliance, beautiful and flawless, which was the meaning of her name. There were no equals to her beauty across time, and she was the most beautiful woman in manâs eyes.
The moment her true face was revealed, everyone finally knew why she was ranked first on the Divine Maiden Leaderboard.
âWow. Youâre beautiful. Why hide behind the face veil?â Chu Kuangren said with a chuckle.
âThere are countless filthy men across the Infiniverse. I have to be careful.â Mingyue Wuxia grabbed her face veil and put it back on.
With Mingyue Wuxiaâs power, talent, and background, less than a handful of men in the Infiniverse could rival her, let alone those who wanted to take advantage of her. âIâm looking at one now,â Mingyue Wuxia said with a smile.
âIn that case, you must have underestimated me.â Chu Kuangrenâs lips curled into a grin.
He raised the Descendant Self Sword high and released an even stronger sword intent. âNo matter how beautiful you are, Iâm not interested.â
Another surge of sword qi was hurled at her.
This time, Mingyue Wuxiaâs eyes glistened with an unusual flare. She pointed her sword hand sign forward and unleashed a sword qi! The sword qi had an ancient presence to it.
It was vast and unusually strong.
When the two sword qi clashed, the void around them cracked.
Even Chu Kuangrenâs Infinity Domain started to crack.
âYou are indeed skilled in Sword Dao,â Chu Kuangren said as his eyes lit up with interest.
âBrother Chu, please enlighten me.â With her battle intents piqued, Mingyue Wuxiaâs sword intent rose sharply. It had been many years since she used her Sword Dao in battle because no one was worthy of being her opponent. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chu Kuangren was different. He was worthy! In fact, even when she was not confident she could beat Chu Kuangren with her Sword Dao, she looked forward to her exchange with Chu Kuangren.
However, Chu Kuangren conserved his sword intent and sheathed the Descendant Self Sword.
Mingyue Wuxia was stunned.
âI was just testing you, and Iâve gotten what I wanted. Fighting seems pointless now. Besides, you and me fighting will only disturb the elders here,â Chu Kuangren said.
If he fought Mingyue Wuxia, the collateral damage would surely be more severe than the fight with Dugu Bupo and the others.
He did not want to disturb the elders.
Mingyue Wuxia expressed her understanding, but she had no place to release her aroused battle intent, which was depressing.
Chu Kuangren was the one who started it, and now he wanted to end it one-sidedly. Mingyue Wuxia was aggrieved, frustrated, and helpless.
