I Have A Sword-Chapter 1391: A Single Step to Become a Supreme Emperor

Bai Qin hesitated for a moment before speaking in a low voice, "My lord, this man follows the Dao of Order. If we spill too much blood here, we'll make an enemy out of the entire starry region."

Xuan Zheng remained unfazed. "All the more reason to do it."

Bai Qin hesitated briefly but ultimately nodded without another word.

Xuan Zheng took a step forward, raising his right hand before suddenly striking downward.

Ten Desolate Universe.

Without warning, a colossal hand materialized in the sky, descending upon the land with overwhelming force. In an instant, the heavens darkened, swallowing all light. Every living being looked up in horror as an enormous shadow loomed over them.

The aura of a Supreme Emperor! Despair spread like wildfire.

The saying was true... all are mere ants before a Supreme Emperor.

As the monstrous hand descended, the spacetime of the Ten Desolate Universe cracked open. Countless beings found themselves frozen in place, unable to move, as an invisible force crushed them under its weight.

Against such terrifying power, resistance was meaningless.

Even the Supreme Emperor Clans and Immortal Clans members could do nothing. Not a single soul dared to fight back. Just as despair reached its peak, a sharp, resounding sword cry echoed across the land.

A blinding sword light shot up from the ground, streaking across the skies.

It collided with the massive hand, forcibly halting it in its tracks.

"Supreme Emperor Guan!"

"Supreme Emperor Guan is here!"

Hope came back to everyone.

"Break!" A powerful voice rang throughout the heavens. The next instant, the colossal hand shattered into countless fragments, and light returned to the world.

High above, a figure stood tall in the sky. Clad in white and sword in hand, his sword force demanded attention from the world.

"Supreme Emperor Guan!"

Eyes that were once filled with despair now shone with renewed determination.

Far in the distance, Dao Zhi and a group of powerful figures stood fixated on Ye Guan, and their hands trembled with anticipation.

Crack!

Spacetime twisted violently in front of Ye Guan as a dark-robed man stepped forward. His gaze locked onto Ye Guan, calm and unreadable.

Ye Guan spared him only a glance.

Swoosh!

The next instant, they vanished.

A blinding storm of sword light erupted in the sky, shaking the heavens. But before the energy could fully settle, a long spear pierced the light, tearing open a massive rift. A terrifying spear force spread out like an unstoppable wave, pressing down on the Ten Desolate Universe.

The pressure was suffocating.

But before it could destroy the lands, another sword light slashed through the oppressive force, splitting it apart.

An overwhelming sword energy pervaded the skies, forcing the dark-robed man to retreat. Before he could recover, a blinding sword light shot toward him, and a resonant sword hum reverberated.

The dark-robed man's eyes narrowed in surprise. Twisting his wrist, he sent his spear forward, unleashing a storm of attacks toward Ye Guan's Qingxuan Sword.

When the sword and the spear collided, a deafening explosion shook the heavens. The sky fractured, spacetime collapsed, and the world trembled. The two were blasted away from each other.

Ye Guan steadied himself, his right hand trembling slightly. With a flick of his sword, he shattered the lingering energy around him.

The dark-robed man came to a stop as well. His gaze sharpened as he studied Ye Guan. He hadn't expected the Supreme Emperor of this world to be this formidable.

Even in the vast Old Lands, Ye Guan would be considered one of the elites.

Good thing they had sent him here. If it had been anyone else, they would have been nothing more than a stepping stone for this young swordsman.

Ye Guan took a deep breath, gripping his sword tightly. He didn't have a cultivation base, but as long as he wielded Little Soul, he was a Supreme Emperor. It was all because he and Little Soul were virtually one.

Since his battle with Fan Zhaodi, he hadn't felt this kind of thrill in combat.

And it felt good. Ye Guan smiled. He took a single step forward, and a sword light flew toward the dark-robed man.

His opponent's spear trembled, unleashing tens of thousands of lightning bolts at once.

A fierce battle erupted once more, and between Supreme Emperors at that!

Below, the two hundred swordsmen stood in silent awe, and their eyes were fixed on the battle up above. Before the fight began, Ye Guan had ordered them to leave the tiny pagoda so they could witness the battle.

Their gazes burned at the sight.

Inside the tiny pagoda, they had spent countless days fighting Bronze War Generals. As their strength grew, so did their arrogance; they believed they were among the strongest in the Ten Desolate Universe, perhaps even capable of challenging a Supreme Emperor.

However, the scene before them made them realize just how insignificant they were. They wouldn't last even a single exchange against the two Supreme Emperors.

Eclipse Sun smirked and remarked, "Keep watching. Supreme Emperor Guan wants you to understand how high the sky really is."

The others nodded, and their eyes never left the battlefield. Their respect for Ye Guan deepened with every moment.

Even Eclipse Sun himself couldn't help but feel emotional. If Ye Guan were to use him in this battle, he would benefit greatly from it.

"Eclipse Sun!"

Ye Guan's voice rang out from above.

Eclipse Sun froze for a moment before grinning. Without hesitation, he transformed into a streak of fiery sword light that flew toward Ye Guan.

In the blink of an eye, he landed in Ye Guan's right hand. The sword was as red as fire, and it appeared as if it were forged from the flames of the sun itself. Ye Guan wielded a sword in each hand—Qingxuan in his left and Eclipse Sun in his right.

With a flick of his wrist, he unleashed a storm of fire-infused sword energy. The intensity of the flames dimmed even the light of the sun. Ye Guan was slightly surprised. It seemed that Eclipse Sun's previous owner was quite formidable.

Across the battlefield, the dark-robed man hurled his spear forward with all his might.

Thunder roared and lightning crackled as the spear tore through the flaming sword storm, colliding head-on with Ye Guan's attack.

The heavens trembled as waves of destruction rippled outward. Lightning and flames clashed in a violent eruption, consuming everything in their wake.

Swoosh!

Ye Guan vanished. Two streaks of sword lights streaked across the battlefield, closing in on the dark-robed man.

Below, countless eyes were glued to the sky. They knew that if Ye Guan ended up losing, they were all doomed. This battle would determine the fate of everyone.

High above, the white-armored man, Bai Qin, observed the battle with growing concern. He hadn't expected the Supreme Emperor of this world to be this terrifyingly strong. Ye Guan could actually hold his own against Xuan Zheng.

Xuan Zheng was one of the martial instructors of the Suiming Civilization. Although he wasn't the Chief Martial Instructor, he was still responsible for training the young elites of the entire Suiming Civilization.

Even though Xuan Zheng's cultivation realm was being suppressed, he was still a Supreme Emperor. Among other Supreme Emperors, Xuan Zheng's power was above average. Despite that, he was struggling against Ye Guan.

This was insane.

Kaboom!

A deafening explosion suddenly erupted from the battlefield. In an instant, both Ye Guan and Xuan Zheng were sent hurtling backward.

Around them, torrents of blazing sword energy and streaks of lightning surged, crushing everything in their path.

Ye Guan came to a stop, his eyes gleaming with excitement. A battle of this level... now this is fun.

In the distance, Xuan Zheng's expression darkened. He locked his gaze onto Ye Guan and gritted his teeth. "You've been holding back!"

No one else had noticed it, but he had. From the very start of this fight, the young swordsman had been concealing his true strength.

But why?

Was it to lull him into a false sense of security, only to strike with a fatal blow at the crucial moment?

Or was he using this battle as a means to temper himself?

Xuan Zheng pushed aside his thoughts and fixed his eyes on Ye Guan. "Kill him."

As soon as Xuan Zheng gave the order, Bai Qin led a hundred Gold Divine Guards in a synchronized dive.

Xuan Zheng knew that with his suppressed cultivation base, he stood no chance against the young swordsman. A one-on-one fight was a pointless waste of time.

Thus, he decided to overwhelm Ye Guan with sheer numbers!

They would unleash their full might and annihilate him completely.

Even though a seal was suppressing the Gold Divine Guards, they were still at the Supreme Emperor Realm. Over a hundred of them charged down at once; they weren't giving Ye Guan a single chance!

Yet, as Xuan Zheng made his move, a subtle smirk tugged at the corner of Ye Guan's lips.

Meanwhile, those from the Ten Desolate Universe who witnessed this shameless tactic were instantly enraged, their eyes turning bloodshot.

Damn it! Ganging up on him?

At that moment, Ye Guan suddenly raised his Qingxuan Sword to his brow and spoke in a slow, steady voice:

"On this day, my will is the will of all beings. My intent is the intent of all beings. In the name of the sword, all living things, all creatures of heaven and earth... assist me!"

Ye Guan's voice echoed in the minds of every single living being across in the entire Ten Desolate Universe.

For a brief moment, all fell silent.

Boom!

Then, a boundless surge of faith power erupted from every corner of the world, converging into an unstoppable tide that poured into Ye Guan.

Ye Guan took a single step forward.

Boom!

With that step, his cultivation base skyrocketed to the Supreme Emperor Realm. His cultivation base was restored!
