Zombie Bodyguard-Chapter 1553 - 1550: The Might of the Heavenly Tribulation
The Heavenly Tribulation Sword burned with purple flames, and the aura of destruction suddenly enveloped the entire field. Everyone felt like the heavenly thunder tribulation had descended, irresistible, like the arrival of a king demanding total submission.
Wang Wanxi's eyes shone with admiration, exclaiming, "So this is the newly emerged Divine Sword, what an overbearing aura."
If anyone felt this keenly, it wasn't Master Tang facing the brunt but the three members of the Situ family. As they watched the burning purple flames, an inexplicable shiver ran through them, an uncontrollable fear emerging in their hearts, like animals meeting their natural enemy, impossible to contain.
The Situ family practiced Xuanbing True Energy. Encountering Lin Tian's fire power, they were naturally like mice seeing a cat.
"This person is too terrifying, we must destroy him; otherwise, he will be a scourge for the Situ family!" Situ Ming secretly pondered, his face grim.
While everyone harbored their own thoughts, the sword array above Master Tang's head also changed. All the longswords glowed with a blue-purple light, which was Master Tang's sword light. Countless longswords spat out sword light; the formation was so imposing that it would terrify anyone slightly fragile in spirit.
"Master, that woman's techniques are a bit formidable; do you have any techniques you can use?" The Sword Spirit suddenly said in Lin Tian's mind.
"What the heck, Sword Energy Cross is a martial technique from Qingshuang Pavilion, I can't use it. There's also the Japan martial technique, Thousand Illusion Blade Technique of the Demon Blade Muramasa; I'm Huaxia, I won't use a Japanese technique to fight Huaxia people," Lin Tian replied irritably.
"I have a technique used by King Arthur, do you want it?" The Sword Spirit offered.
"No need, I just want to see if the ultimate move of Qingshuang Pavilion can stand against me!" Lin Tian replied arrogantly.
Buzz...
The surrounding space suddenly vibrated as Master Tang moved. Sword Qi accumulated to its peak vibrated and lifted fallen leaves around, the leaves flew within the sword array, seemingly becoming part of it. Nobody would doubt their lethality with their sharp edges rotating and trembling at high speed.
Hurting people with a sword is not frightening; what's frightening is injuring someone by picking leaves. This signifies an extremely high realm of true qi utilization, and Master Tang achieved just that.
Buzz...
Another jolt as the sword array above Master Tang's head poured down on Lin Tian like a river of stars.
"Roar..." Lin Tian let out a low growl, and the purple flames of the Heavenly Tribulation Sword surged. He swung the sword with force, spinning in place, creating a wheel of flame around him.
This move was one that Lin Tian had used before, during his encounter with the murderous waterweeds in the depths of the Dragon-locking Well. He used the Crescent Blade to shred all the waterweeds. This is not an ancient martial art but Lin Tian wielding immense strength and speed to swing the weapon, forming the sword wheel.
Now, he was like the eye of a tornado, lifting countless leaves and debris, forming a tornado, but a flaming tornado.
The flaming tornado surged toward Master Tang's sword stream. Suddenly, the whole space seemed to pause, then erupted with a tsunami-like roar, accompanied by overwhelming clattering, ear-piercing.
Blue and purple lights burst forth, sword light, and flames together, for a moment, the field was filled with air currents, the aftermath of their collision flattened everything, some trees abruptly snapped, with smooth breaks, others suddenly ignited, burning to ashes.
The ground shook incessantly, like a violent earthquake. Those watching were forced to retreat continuously. Those still in Qingshuang Pavilion, feeling the disturbance, swiftly moved in, including the female disciples of Qingshuang Pavilion congregating.
But upon arrival, they were so shocked they hastily retreated, but even then, those with lower skills were instantly knocked out by the aftermath, swiftly helped by others to retreat, resulting in chaos.
Xiao Manxue and Wang Wanxi protected Xiao Manxuan, Yun Xiaotian, and Ghost while retreating. Among the three, two were ordinary people, Ghost barely counted as a common ancient martial artist, without Wang Wanxi and Xiao Manxue's protection, they would have been knocked out or even severely injured like other ancient martial artists.
The late-arriving ancient martial artists were like startled ducks, doing nothing but desperately retreating, utterly unaware of what had occurred. The dust and smoke from the field blocked all vision.
When the sound of the clash faded, the dust slowly dispersed, revealing a large pit in the field. The ground inside was scorched black with wisps of green smoke occasionally rising, the scene as if cleansed by thunder and fire.
At both ends of the pit stood a person—Lin Tian and Master Tang. Lin Tian stood with the Heavenly Tribulation Sword in hand, standing casually, although covered in dust and with tattered clothes, his gaze remained bright.
Beside Master Tang, the Purple Lightning Green Frost Sword was stuck in the ground, other swords long vanished, having been entirely incinerated by the purple flames in the previous clash!
What was astonishing, however, was that she remained pristine as if untouched by human smoke.
Those familiar with Qingshuang Pavilion's treasured artifact knew it was because Master Tang wore a dress made of ice silkworm threads, shielding her from the battle's aftershocks.
"Sister, did Lin Tian win?" Xiao Manxuan asked worriedly.
Xiao Manxue slightly frowned, a hint of doubt in her eyes, "I don't know..."
Observing the two in the field, Lin Tian's clothes were ruined while Master Tang remained spotless. At first glance, it seemed Master Tang had won, but upon closer inspection, neither seemed injured—it appeared to be a draw.
"Lin Tian can actually withstand All Swords Return to the Sect!"
"Master Tang is a mid-Innate expert!"
The crowd started whispering, especially the female disciples of Qingshuang Pavilion, full of surprise and doubt. Tang Ziqing and Tang Muling exchanged a glance, not knowing how to express their current feelings.
Only Situ Ming was lost in dejection, muttering, "All Swords Return to the Sect... he didn't die... didn't die... terrifying!"
"Right, Master Tang must have held back, that's it. Otherwise, how could he resist All Swords Return to the Sect if he hadn't stolen the Divine Sword!" Situ Ming seemed to catch a key point, his eyes lit up as he suddenly spoke loudly.
Hearing his words, those around frowned at him, including Tang Ziqing and Tang Muling, because claiming Master Tang held back was downright insulting Qingshuang Pavilion.
Lin Tian moved, appearing before Situ Ming, striking him with the sword, the blade landing on Situ Ming's shoulder. Unable to withstand the force, he buckled to his knees.
"Lin Tian, what are you doing?" Situ Yufeng's face was livid, calling out. To him, making someone from the Situ family kneel publicly was the ultimate insult.
Lin Tian glanced at him, giving an evil smile, "What am I doing? I'm doing your grandma!"
This statement made the women blush a little, Xiao Manxue and her sister muttered together, "Bastard, speaking vulgarly again."
"You... don't be reckless." Situ Ming's tone weakened significantly, having no choice after witnessing the Heavenly Tribulation Sword's power.
"Didn't you say I stole the Heavenly Tribulation Sword? You try, if you can lift it, it's yours." Lin Tian sneered and then swiftly drove the Heavenly Tribulation Sword into the stone floor.
