The Birth of Sword God-Chapter 196 - 170: Divine Presence in the Mortal World

Chapter 196: Chapter 170: Divine Presence in the Mortal World

"Outrageous!!!"

Qin Xuexiao shouted angrily in his mind.

He could never have imagined that his greatest reliance, the Emperor’s Divine Thought, which had never failed him, could actually be suppressed by someone!

The Heir of Prince Rui had also heard about Chu Huaixu’s uncanny abilities, this leader of the East Continent seemed to have a natural suppression over Sword Cultivators.

Under the embellishment of storytellers, his battle with Mo Lingfeng had been exaggerated to the point where Mo Lingfeng couldn’t even draw his sword, lacking even the qualification to challenge him!

But the problem is... I’m a Spear Cultivator!

"With the rank of the Emperor’s Divine Thought, how could there possibly be a Low Tier Cultivator capable of forcefully suppressing it!"

"The ancestor is a cultivator at the peak of the Ninth Realm, a figure standing at the Profound Yellow Peak!"

What Qin Xuexiao found most unacceptable was that everyone in the world knew about his possession of the Emperor’s Divine Thought.

But who was the other party?

——A Royal Assassin, a court lapdog!

This is blatant disrespect!

This noble by birth, Qin Xuexiao, had never thought someone from within the [organization] would dare act this way.

Servile dogs subduing an emperor’s ancestor?

Young punks! How dare you!!

This made the Young Master suddenly realize that something was not quite right.

The development of events might deviate slightly from his expectations?

Just when he was distracted, Chu Huaixu’s Fingertip True Gang attacked once more. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

This spy from the Moon Country seemed not to intend to give the Young Master any chance to breathe.

The domineering True Gang, enveloped with Fearless Sword Intent, was unbelievably fast.

A Great Perfection level Profound Level Technique, a realm that none of the four world protagonists had reached.

Chu Huaixu had paid a huge price, investing a lot of Experience Points to achieve today’s might.

In his haste, Qin Xuexiao did indeed experience a moment of panic.

Fortunately, Lin Zixuan was sharing his vision, enhancing his reaction time.

Here, vision didn’t just refer to what the eyes saw, but also what the Divine Sense detected.

This future Crown Prince Consort, as a so-called Divine Level Assistance, possessed extremely strong Divine Sense.

Now, although her cultivation hadn’t reached the First Realm Great Perfection, merely at the Eighth Heaven, her Divine Sense strength was already comparable to a cultivator at the peak of the Second Realm.

Moreover, an insider has blind spots while an outsider sees clearly.

Sitting high upon the stage, with an outsider’s perspective, she investigated, looking at things differently from Qin Xuexiao.

The combination of the two was more comprehensive.

But unfortunately, since it’s the Power of Divine Sense...

"Did I allow you to cheat!" Chu Huaixu shouted in his mind.

"Heart Sword!"

Between Qin Xuexiao and Lin Zixuan, it seemed there were countless invisible lines of Divine Sense linking them.

And at this moment, an invisible sword severed all these lines of Divine Sense completely!

Before the Heart Sword, they were so fragile.

Just like a sharp sword that cuts through hair and steel with ease, slicing thin cords effortlessly.

In an instant, Qin Xuexiao felt a piercing pain in his Sea of Consciousness!

Even the young girl sitting high on the viewing platform, her delicate face beneath the veil turned pale in an instant.

The backlash she suffered must have been much stronger than what Qin Xuexiao endured.

The sudden intense pain made her let out an instinctive cry of agony.

Lin Zixuan nearly couldn’t sit steadily on her chair, her whole body turned limp by Chu Huaixu, almost fainting on the spot!

Zhao Shuqi from the Daoist Five Elders immediately opened his squinted eyes, his golden pupils looked at this future Crown Prince Consort, and he directly used a Divine Sense Secret Technique to stabilize her Sea of Consciousness, preventing damage.

However, this Fifth Elder, known alongside Li Chunsong as "Not One of a Kind," had eyes filled with amusement.

Some people might not understand what’s going on, but how could they not know?

"Little girl, feeling uncomfortable?" Zhao Shuqi chuckled inwardly.

High on the platform, everyone’s gaze focused on Lin Zixuan.

Even those close to the stage below heard the girl’s scream.

This made her face beneath the veil turn bright red once her Sea of Consciousness recovered.

Such a shameful and embarrassing event was an experience she had never had in her life.

Lin Zixuan only felt her body tense up, aware that everyone was watching her.

Moreover, these people are all high-level cultivators above the Fifth Realm! All senior experts!

She didn’t know how to describe this feeling.

In fact, this is exactly social death.

"Miss Lin, are you okay?" Eunuch Li immediately expressed concern.

"Eunuch Li, I’m fine now." she replied.

After speaking, under everyone’s gaze, she had to stand up and express her gratitude to the Fifth Elder, giving him a slight bow.

Meanwhile, she was well aware that the true instigator of it all was the young man on the stage wearing the same outfit as the Crown Prince!

As Lin Zixuan’s beautiful eyes swept over, there was still a trace of unresolved fright in her gaze.

She completely didn’t understand how the other party accomplished it.

"Together with the Crown Prince’s Divine Sense, not even a Third Realm cultivator could do this."

"Moreover, he seemed to achieve it with such ease."

"Could it be that his Divine Sense cultivation has reached the Fourth Realm, or even approached a Great Cultivator?" Lin Zixuan found it unbelievable.

She couldn’t help but stare at Chu Huaixu, trying to figure it out.

On the stage, after the Dead Fox severed the two’s Divine Sense link, how could he let go of this flaw?

He immediately released a Fingertip Thunder, and all seven Sword Qi in the sword scabbard were unleashed.

Qin Xuexiao momentarily experienced a blackout and dizziness.

By the time he reacted, the True Gang and seven Sword Qi were already rushing at him!

Even with his composure and upbringing, he couldn’t help but curse inwardly.

The black robe on the Heir of Prince Rui, with its golden patterns beginning to shimmer, produced a dark golden barrier protecting him.

This barrier blocked the foremost True Gang, and then the seven Sword Qi collided with it, shattering it.

He spun the spear in his hand, using Technique for defense.

Suddenly, he was driven back several steps, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

On the arena, Mei Chuxue seized the opportunity and covertly stepped on Nangong Yue’s foot again.

"Oh, Elder Nangong, it seems the black robe worn by the young master is of a higher grade than the one you’ve crafted. I think it’s an upper grade spiritual artifact?"

Nangong Yue, oh Nangong Yue, you not only copied the style, but the grade is also lower than theirs.

Even if the temperament of the Ninth Elder of the Daoist Sect is ever so gentle, at this moment, she was somewhat displeased.

"Chu Huaixu is only in the First Realm; a middle grade spiritual artifact is already sufficient. Once his cultivation improves, I will naturally reforge one for him. This is merely a transitional item."

"Look at this defense barrier of his; its power is only similar to a middle grade spiritual artifact, but at least it looks impressive."

Mei Chuxue, dressed provocatively and with a flair for mischievous remarks, intentionally provoked Nangong Yue, immediately chimed in, "Oh, it seems I’ve indirectly helped Huaixu obtain an upper grade magic robe."

Nangong Yue was so angry that her chest puffed up a size, too lazy to bother with her, not bothering to tell her that the jade pendant of Chu Huaixu had also been reforged by herself.

She just felt that this little fox was quite good at claiming credit!

On the arena, Qin Xuexiao’s gaze was solemn.

Now, he could not activate the Emperor’s Divine Thought, and the link with Lin Zixuan’s divine sense was severed, as if both trump cards were destroyed!

The young man before him, also clad in a black robe, seemed to have a suppression against him!

He just so happens to restrain these two abilities of yours!

"Clearly a Sword and Body Dual Cultivator, yet also proficient in secret techniques concerning the divine sense!" Qin Xuexiao couldn’t believe there was such a well-rounded First Realm cultivator!

His fighting will grew increasingly intense, and the Undying Flame on his spear burned ever hotter and brighter.

The dark purple flame began to spread across the entire spear.

Yet it was like it had life, causing no harm to its master.

At the center of Qin Xuexiao’s brow, a purple mark began to appear.

From afar, it looked as if the third eye had opened, quite resembling True Monarch Erlang.

"Wow, to think someone in the First Realm can already awaken the Emperor’s bloodline within them?" exclaimed a great cultivator from the high platform, marveling.

Though Qin Xuexiao was still a low tier cultivator, he ascended into the air like a great cultivator.

Behind him, a phantom of a purple moon began to appear.

This man, in his black robe, holding a spear in one hand with a purple mark between his brows and the light and shadow behind him.

He looked like a deity descending from the heavens!

His entire aura instantly changed, and he could even exert pressure on his surroundings.

Chu Huaixu watched this scene, gaining some understanding.

"The reason why the royal family of the Moon Country holds a firm position, unlike the weakened court of Mirror Country, is due to their special bloodline combined with the Emperor’s inheritance, leading to the emergence of many strong individuals."

"Moreover, after becoming part of the royal family, they seem to be able to absorb the dynasty’s fortune, augmenting themselves."

"This should be Qin Xuexiao’s trump card."

Once entering this ’Divine Presence’ state, the consumption of spiritual power would be immense.

If it weren’t for Lin Zixuan’s assistance, he wouldn’t be able to maintain it for long.

Chu Huaixu only saw a blur before his eyes, and the floating Heir of Prince Rui vanished in an instant, his speed not inferior to his full level [Feixuan]!

In the next moment, the Divine Spear [Imperial Moon], blazing entirely, was already before him.

Ink-colored air currents swirled around Chu Huaixu, intertwining with the black-purple flames.

Many spectators could see that his defense technique seemed to have changed.

It became more graceful and effective than before.

In terms of pure spiritual power strength, having cultivated the "Dao Scripture" and just gained 2 points in Gathering Spirit, Chu Huaixu was not intimidated!

Judging from the current combat power, he felt that even without borrowing spiritual power from Lin Zixuan, Qin Xuexiao was somewhat stronger than the Big Ice Cube.

But this could be understood.

Han Shuangjiang excelled in quick realm breakthroughs, always staying ahead as long as she wasn’t deliberately stuck at a realm.

Additionally, coming from noble origins, she naturally possessed many things from birth, with a high starting point.

The Big Ice Cube, on the other hand, was a daughter of fortune, requiring fortuitous encounters to pile up to this point.

As of now, she hadn’t even obtained those two [Dao Ancestor Inheritances].

It was normal that her overall combat power was inferior to Qin Xuexiao.

"It’s just a pity that you’ve encountered me!" Chu Huaixu’s eyes hardened.

What undying flame, what divine presence, just showy nonsense!

The Fingertip Sword Qi of Chu Huaixu began to emerge.

— [Sword Heart Clarity]!

Even if Qin Xuexiao’s Emperor’s Divine Thought wasn’t suppressed, he was only at a minor success of spear intent.

In the face of the realm of Sword Heart Clarity, this was undoubtedly lacking.

Chu Huaixu infused his surging spiritual power into this one strike.

"What use is it to borrow spiritual power from others?" he said calmly, as if he had anticipated everything, only now revealing it.

"What’s not yours, will never truly be yours," Chu Huaixu said nonchalantly.

Borrowed power can never match what one cultivates for oneself, right?

The dazzling sword qi directly tore through the dark purple sea of flames.

The enormous disparity made Qin Xuexiao realize he could not block this sword.

Within three breaths, he would undoubtedly be defeated!

"You dare..." he couldn’t help but exclaim.

Hearing this, Chu Huaixu’s eyes instantly darkened.

He could naturally hear the underlying message in that sentence.

"Damn it, he really knows my identity!"

In the next moment, the sword qi became even more domineering.

Chu Huaixu wouldn’t allow this young master’s mouth to utter another word.

And he forcibly interrupted the other’s words: "It’s the battle for the leader; why wouldn’t I dare!"

The speed of the Fingertip Sword Qi suddenly quickened, slicing through a protective talisman paper within Qin Xuexiao’s clothes, destroying its defense effects instantly.

The aftermath of the sword qi fell entirely on him, sending the floating Heir of Prince Rui flying backward.

He crashed heavily onto the ground, severely injured, his vision went black, immediately rendering him unconscious, passing out cold.

Chu Huaixu took a few steps forward, looking down at him coldly, saying in his heart:

"Shut your mouth for me."
