The entire back garden of the City Lord Mansion once again fell into silence.

Xiao Ye's cultivation talent and strength were acknowledged to be very powerful, but wasn't this arrogance too much?

It must be known that Jianchen himself is a disciple of the Sword Sect, having cultivated the Sword Manual, and once he has a sharp sword in his hand, his strength will undergo an earth-shattering change, especially since Jianchen now wields a Royal Artifact!

And yet Xiao Ye was so arrogant that he wasn't even willing to draw a weapon and wished to duel Jianchen.

At this moment, not only Jianchen himself, but even the Sword Sect's disciples and elders present all showed angry expressions.

They felt contempt and insult from Xiao Ye.

"Jianchen, kill this brat!"

"Jianchen, if you can't do it let me!"

"This kid is too arrogant, quickly take him down!"

The Sword Sect's disciples shouted angrily, wishing they could rush forward and chop Xiao Ye into pieces.

"Hmph, you're very confident, but you have overestimated yourself, and you will pay the price for this overconfidence!" Jianchen roared as he brandished his longsword towards the Nine Heavens as if he was a Sword Immortal ascending to the Heavenly Dome.

The next moment, his body rose to the peak and then suddenly halted.

"Sword Roll the Clouds!"

Jianchen let out another loud shout, and his longsword instantly came to life like a resurrected ferocious beast, emitting a sharp sword cry, bursting forth with an unrivaled brilliance, reflecting against the cold moon in the sky, and the two intertwined, forming a sword curtain that covered the sky.

Seeing that sword curtain, the majority of young talents present couldn't help but be shocked.

Sure enough, he was a disciple of the Sword Sect!

Even though his cultivation was only at the late stage of the Level 8 King Martial Realm, the power he displayed was no less formidable than that of an expert at the early stage of the Level 9 King Martial Realm.

The rumors of the Sword Sect disciples' unparalleled attack power were indeed true!

Among the young talents present, hardly any of them could withstand this move, and furthermore, Xiao Ye was unarmed!

Even the devilish disciples from the Taiyi Palace's Main Hall showed a look of worry on their faces. Could Xiao Ye withstand this move?

If Xiao Ye were to be defeated by Jianchen, it would be their Holy Palace's reputation at stake.

"Take this!"

At this moment, Jianchen pointed his longsword downwards towards Xiao Ye.

Whiz! Whiz! Whiz! Whiz!

The sword curtain in the sky suddenly shattered, transforming into countless sharp sword lights that poured down on Xiao Ye like a torrential rainstorm, tearing apart the very void in their path.

Buzz!

Below, experts from the Nine Major Forces within the Emperor Martial Realm activated their Emperor's Divine Abilities, erecting defenses and enveloping all disciples within.

Although these sword lights were sharp and had a wide range of attack, they were after all unleashed by an expert at the King Martial Realm and were far from threatening them.

Facing such a sharp and terrifying attack, Xiao Ye showed no fear but instead his eyes blazed even more fiercely.

Boom!

Suddenly, a purple glow erupted from his body, shooting straight into the Nine Heavens, and his terrifying Blood Qi surged like a river and sea, endless and unceasing, the might of the Great Success King Body bursting forth and shaking the Heavenly Dome.

"This... this is the Great Success King Body?"

"Oh my, Xiao Ye has actually cultivated the King Body to this extent?"

"This guy is simply monstrous!"

Among the nine major forces present, many were unaware that Xiao Ye had achieved the Great Success King Body. At that moment, witnessing it, they were profoundly shocked to the point of losing their composure.

Bang bang bang bang!

Xiao Ye seemed like an invincible, purple War God, full of substance. With only his Great Success King Body's physical might, he shattered all the incoming sword light with his fists, his Blood Qi roaring within him like a Gray Dragon.

"Hmph!"

Above the Heavenly Dome, Jianchen, seeing that his ultimate move had not affected Xiao Ye in the slightest, snorted coldly and once again raised his longsword high.

"Sword Age Nine Heavens!"

With a loud shout from Jianchen, the longsword in his hand erupted with a terrifying suction force, causing even the cold moon above to tremble.

Boom!

The next moment, as the longsword moved to position above his head, Jianchen plunged towards Xiao Ye at a stunning speed.

Boom!

Along the way, the void was cleanly slashed in half by Jianchen's move. Before he even landed, the ground cracked open, dust stirred up to the Nine Heavens, and even the entire City Lord Mansion violently shook, enveloped by a vast and boundless Sword Qi, as if the whole world was bearing down.

Everyone was startled.

Jianchen's strength was terrifying; using such a fearsome technique, he could effortlessly defeat a martial artist at the early stage of the King Martial Ninth Level without any issue.

However, at this very moment, a figure shot towards the sky, rushing toward the falling Jianchen!

That was Xiao Ye!

Behind Xiao Ye materialized a Royal Artifact infused with King Realm, where three different types of King Martial Power, under the influence of the Four Emperor Skills of the King Martial Scroll, merged into one, becoming like the Qi of Chaos, covering Xiao Ye from head to toe.

Bang bang bang bang!

The two clashed like planets colliding; first, there was a moment of silence, followed by a deafening sound echoing through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. A vast expanse of white Sword Qi and a terrifying Energy Storm immediately shattered the City Lord Mansion to pieces.

Although the disciples of the nine major forces were protected by their respective sect's Titled Emperor Martial Realm experts, the City Lord Mansion suffered as a result.

Looking around, the intense light illuminated the Nine Heavens, palaces turned to dust, fountains evaporated in an instant, and the entire City Lord Mansion melted away rapidly like snow under the warm sun, soon reduced to ashes.

The disturbances grew increasingly intense, sweeping through like a storm, causing the whole Sea City to quake.

Martial Artists in Sea City, one after another, shocked, ran out of taverns and inns, staring at the City Lord Mansion in horror.

The City Lord Mansion was blazing with light so intense it was as if an artificial sun had appeared, illuminating the night.

It took a dozen or so breaths of time before the disturbance gradually subsided.

Above the ruins where the City Lord Mansion once stood, onlookers squinted upwards to the Heavenly Dome, revealing the two figures who had emerged, Xiao Ye and Jianchen.

At that moment, the two faced each other, both radiating strong momentum.

"Did they end in a draw?"

"How is that possible!"

The warriors from the Sword Sect were greatly surprised.

They knew full well that the Sword Skill Jianchen had just used was one of the most profound in the Sword Manual; amongst all the disciples in the Sword Sect, only a few could execute it, and its power was immense.

That Xiao Ye could withstand it unscathed, how could they not be astonished?

However, what was most inconceivable to them was still to come.

Pfft!

Suddenly, Jianchen, clutching his longsword, swayed slightly and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
