Realms In The Firmament-Chapter 1946 - The Promise Of The Three Swords
The white-robed young master’s voice was calm, and there was no tension in his tone. Even the tragic atmosphere of the promise of a battle was nowhere to be seen.
There was only gentleness, gentleness, and gentleness.
However, this calm voice spread throughout the entire battlefield. Everyone present clearly heard this sentence: Lu Buyi, do you dare to come out and fight with me, Ye Xiao?
Lu Buyi, who was in the main tent of the southern sky camp, was instantly put in a difficult position!
As the number one person in the military, there was no reason for the other party not to fight.
If they really did not fight and avoided the fight, then the already low morale of the southern sky army would be reduced by a thousand miles!
However, if they really came out to fight this time, they would have no confidence at all
Everyone could not help but think: If ye Xiao, who was the leader, did not have the confidence to win, why would he come out to fight?
In front of tens of millions of troops, he openly challenged them to a battle!
Not to mention, there was the battle record of one-on-one killing the veteran expert, Chang Kong, in front of him. It would be difficult for Lu Buyi to win this battle!
Ye Xiao quietly stood on the spot and waited. There was no surprise or joy on his face, only calmness.
It seemed that… no matter if Lu Buyi came out or not, he did not really care about it.
A moment later, Lu Buyi did not show up.
“Haha…”Ye Xiao shook his head and smiled faintly.
He turned around with his hands behind his back, as if he was riding on the wind, wanting to leave.
He did not say anything else.
However, the people from the Pavilion of Lords below suddenly erupted with thunderous cheers, as if they had won a huge battle!
As for the Southern Sky Army, everyone’s faces were filled with dejection.
Lu Buyi, the Grand Commander of the Southern Sky Army, actually did not dare to fight? !
Ye Xiao’s originally towering figure slowly descended, his expression as calm as before. However, just as he was about to land on the ground, a thunderous roar suddenly sounded in mid-air, “Ye Xiao!”
Ye Xiao, who was slowly descending and about to land, suddenly stopped. With a whoosh, he abruptly returned to the sky.
In everyone’s sight, there was still his slowly descending figure. It was so real.
However, in the sky, his corporeal figure had long stood erect like a mountain.
Lu Buyi, who was opposite him, had a solemn expression, and his gaze was even more complicated.
“Sovereign ye, if you want to fight, then fight. Why do you have to play such tricks to lower your status!”
Ye Xiao smiled casually. “Commander Lu’s words really surprised me… on the battlefield, it’s normal to use all means to win; how come I, who challenged commander Lu directly, became a schemer? These words should be baffling and disapproving to anyone else! “To put it bluntly, even if I have 100,000 experts by my side and set up a trap to kill Commander Lu, it’s just the use of strategic tactics. It can’t be said to be too excessive… why is it that the fair battle that I’m asking for is actually so difficult for commander Lu?”
Ye Xiao’s words clearly reached the ears of everyone present, and everyone felt that it was reasonable.
That’s right, this was a battlefield, a place where war was imminent and life and death could be at any moment. Ye Xiao’s challenge was really too open and aboveboard, and Lu Buyi’s tone was actually slanderous and unreasonable.
Ye Xiao’s eloquence was thanks to Zuo Wuji’s training, and it was rarely matched. Lu Buyi’s eloquence in front of him was just asking for humiliation, and he was committing suicide!
General Lu, who was enraged from embarrassment, shouted angrily, “Ye Xiao, come and fight!”
Ye Xiao smiled, “I am here to fight with General Lu. If not for the sake of a fight, why would I come here?”
Lu Buyi did not waste any more words and shouted loudly. His long sword struck out, and everywhere he saw, there was a flash of green light, and his momentum instantly soared.
On the other hand, ye Xiao was at ease. He slowly took out his sword, but he did not make a move to respond. Instead, he lowered his head to look at the blade of the sword, he said indifferently, “Lu Buyi, I have the battle record of killing Dean Changkong. If I were to fight you head-on, I would be bullying you. How about this, as long as you can receive three of my sword strikes, the monarch will withdraw from the world’s Strife!”
The moment these words were said, everyone present was shocked!
Three sword strikes! ?
Was this a joke, or was it just boasting, or was it just wishful thinking? !
Even if ye Xiao had successfully killed a veteran expert like ye Xiao, he couldn’t be so boastful!
Many people had done a detailed investigation of the battle that day. It was a fact that ye Xiao had killed ye Xiao, but there were many twists and turns in the process. Not to mention the special environment of the battle that day, not only did ye Xiao have a peerless divine weapon as support, there was also the mysterious Ice Lord Ying Lian, the two female helpers. It was said that if Dean Changkong had not been anxious to rescue his own army, his will would not have been stable. With his cultivation that far surpassed ye Xiao’s, the result of the battle definitely would not have been as it was that day!
All the unfavorable factors were placed on Dean Changkong. The defeat was natural, but ye Xiao’s victory was even more fortunate!
And who was Lu Buyi? Besides his own cultivation that had already reached the eternal realm, Lu Buyi had already become famous hundreds of thousands of years ago. How could his strength be easy to deal with? I believe that even if he was a heavenly emperor.., it would be difficult for him to defeat Lu Buyi with three strikes, right?
Lu Buyi became even more furious and shouted angrily, “Ye Xiao, how dare you look down on me! I will definitely kill you with my sword today!”
Although Lu Buyi said this with fervor, his heart was filled with caution.
Based on his understanding of ye Xiao’s life, especially the comparison between ye Xiao’s cultivation when he fought against headmaster Changkong back then and the current situation, since ye Xiao dared to say this in public, then he must have the confidence to defeat him with three strikes!
The speed of ye Xiao’s cultivation advancement had long exceeded the scope of understanding of a grandmaster. Previously, it had only been a few days since he defeated the dean, but ye Xiao’s cultivation had shockingly increased by a lot compared to then. Therefore, this agreement of three strikes.., was very likely to be the most difficult battle of his life!
It was even to the extent that there was a very high chance that he would die here on the spot!
With this realization, how could Lu Buyi not be scared? !
Ye Xiao maintained a faint smile on his face as he stared at the sword. He ignored Lu Buyi’s raging fury and said in a low voice, “First Strike!”
For some unknown reason, the tens of millions of soldiers below were watching. What kind of clamor should there be? However, when ye Xiao said these three words, it suddenly became quiet. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop!
Even those who were seriously injured forgot to moan at this moment. They were all focused on watching the battle in the sky. They were quietly waiting for the world-shaking three swords!
“Purple Qi comes from the east and I am the King!”
Ye Xiao let out a long cry and his body rose up without any license. At this moment, the spiritual energy in the endless space was like a vast ocean that was instantly sucked dry. It gathered a huge amount of spiritual energy in one strike!
The sovereign sword also gathered all the wind and clouds in the sky in an instant, turning them into a huge crown that connected the heaven and earth!
At this moment, everyone within a radius of thousands of miles felt a suffocating feeling at the same time.
They could no longer feel the existence of any spiritual energy around them.
To cultivators, the existence of spiritual energy was even more so than air. Without Air, they wouldn’t die for a moment. However, without spiritual energy, they would lose their lives. It was precisely because of this.., all mortal cultivators were exceptionally sensitive to the fluctuations of spiritual Qi in their surroundings!
And with ye Xiao’s sword strike, he actually seized all the spiritual Qi in the surrounding earth realm. What kind of power and how overbearing was this!
The tip of Emperor Ye Xiao’s sword rested on the Qi condensation crown, and he softly shouted, “Go!”
The Qi condensation crown flew out slowly.
It was slowly approaching Lu Buyi, but its speed was not very fast!
But anyone could see that even if Lu Buyi had great ability, he could not dodge or avoid this sword!
Because this crown of Qi condensation was really too big, so big that it was unimaginable!
No matter how fast Lu Buyi moved, it was always difficult for him to escape the scope of this crown!
The next moment.
Boom!
A silent explosion sounded in everyone’s hearts.
Everyone felt their hearts tremble violently.
A bright light shone in front of their eyes. It was as if the entire universe, all the stars, had been completely destroyed in front of them at this moment!
The Qi condensation crown exploded!
Countless sword qi mixed with the energy of this world, carrying the aura of a sovereign that ruled the world, surged over!
Every sword Qi was a clear image of the sovereign sword!
It was as if it was an infinite copy of the Sovereign Sword Sea!
Faced with such a fierce attack, Lu Buyi’s expression relaxed, and he suddenly thrust out his sword.
Although this attack looked scary, it was obviously too big and inappropriate. If it lost its speed, he would be able to deal with it more than enough.
At the very least, it was indeed difficult to deal with its momentum. It could also cancel out its momentum as soon as it came into contact with it and use the force to retreat. It would not be a problem for him to retreat in one piece!
Clang!
The first beam of Sword Qi from ye Xiao came into contact with Lu Buyi’s long sword.
Lu Buyi’s confident face instantly froze. He was stunned and his entire body turned cold!
The reason was very simple. The treasured sword that had accompanied him for his entire life, at the first moment that their attacks came into contact, there was a clear and crisp sound. A gap the size of a bean suddenly appeared! “…”
The longsword suddenly let out a mournful cry. It was a weapon that had already gained sentience, and it let out a mournful howl due to the damage to the body of the sword.
At the same time, Lu Buyi’s soul was about to leave his body, and his heart suddenly sank!
The opponent’s sword Qi was shockingly a sharp golden sword qi that was strong enough to be extremely sharp!
“Ye Xiao!”
Lu Buyi cried out loudly and turned around to quickly retreat. “You tricked me!”
The other party was acting in an open and aboveboard manner as they said that they would defeat the enemy with three strikes. As the person involved, Lu Buyi did not expect that the other party would actually make a fuss about the sword qi and hide such an ambush!
When the hundreds of millions of experts who did not know the truth heard this, they were in an uproar!
After all, from their point of view, when ye Xiao said that he wanted you to take three strikes, there was nothing fishy about it. It was clearly a very simple attack formed from sword qi. Not only did you run away before taking the first strike, but you even said that the other party tricked you?
How was it scheming against you?
How could we not see it?
Wasn’t this situation extremely absurd? Did they think that we were blind? !
The situation in the high altitude dueling ground had already changed. Even though Lu Buyi reacted quickly and retreated even faster, he still lost the initiative. Ye Xiao’s crown sword Qi had already arrived!
Lu Buyi’s initial judgment of receiving the sword was wrong. He thought that he had some leeway and was confident that he could retreat unscathed. Little did he know that he had made a mistake and lost the entire match. Only when he received the sword did he realize that there was something strange about ye Xiao’s sword qi.., even if he realized that something was wrong, the distance between the two parties was already too close. There was no way for him to borrow even the slightest bit of strength from the Sharp Golden Sword Qi. When faced with ye Xiao’s follow-up move of the purple extreme sword.., there was no way he could use his hasty movements to pull apart the distance?
Millions of Sword Qi arrived in an endless stream, targeting Lu Buyi.
Lu Buyi tried his best to fly back while brandishing his sword. A sword appeared in his originally empty left hand as he tried his best to block the dense and monstrous sword qi.
However, ye Xiao’s purple extreme famous sword move, which was activated by the sharp golden sword qi, not only contained the purple extreme famous sword’s magical technique, but also had the characteristic of being indestructible. As the two sides continued to fight, this characteristic could be said to be fully displayed, incisive!
Lu Buyi’s dual-sword defense only lasted for a short while before the sword in his hand broke. With one sword missing, the originally dense defense line was immediately exposed. His body trembled and a bloody scar had long appeared on his shoulder.
Lu Buyi was naturally not willing to sit still and wait for death. He continuously took out his treasured sword and continuously reorganized the defense line, hoping for the moment when the opponent’s attack ended. However, the boundless sword Qi released by ye Xiao was actually endless and endless.
“The 7356th Sword Qi!”
Up until now, Lu Buyi had already lost more than 700 long swords!
This grandmaster of the sword collecting world, who was known as the number one sword collector in Beyond Avalon, was unable to take out any weapon that could withstand an attack.
However, ye Xiao’s dense sword Qi continued to come one after another, exterminating everything in its path!
With a roar, Lu Buyi’s entire body began to spin rapidly, and a powerful tornado was formed in an instant!
It had to be said that Lu Buyi was still very methodical in responding to the situation. Not only did he form a 360-degree wind wall with no blind spots to protect himself, but he also had more time to deal with it, as long as Lu Buyi had enough spiritual power to maintain this wind wall, he could continue to dissolve the boundless sword qi!
Unfortunately, the following changes were still beyond Lu Buyi’s expectations. The tornado wind wall that Lu Buyi had built with all his cultivation had no effect on the wind wall that was supposed to be able to dissolve the boundless sword qi, the boundless sword Qi seemed to be completely unaffected. Qi Qi, who was like a hundred rivers converging into the sea, entered the tornado wind wall.
In the next moment, a world-shaking scream rang out!
Under everyone’s dumbfounded and incredulous gazes, Lu Buyi’s figure, who was originally blocked by the thick wind wall, appeared once again in the air.
However, the millions of people were completely silent, dumbstruck.
This was because Lu Buyi, who was in the air, was like a worn-out old sack. Blood was spurting out from every part of his body.
From the top of his head to the soles of his feet, his entire body was covered in cuts and bruises. There were hundreds of wounds that were bleeding profusely. The blood was like streams of blood-colored spring water, splattering all over the sky.
However, Lu Buyi did not fall down.
He was still standing!
Although he was covered in wounds and could no longer fight, he could not continue.
However, he still stood firmly in the air, his eyes glaring fiercely at ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao had made a three-sword bet. Lu Buyi could be said to have received the first strike, but it could also be said that he had not received the first strike.

[ the two become one again; this time, I won’t spread dog food, but I haven’t returned yet… ]
