Douluo Continent: Starting with a Tom Cat

Page 208

A vast and boundless killing intent locked onto Shen An, and he leaped into battle against him.

"It's His Majesty Sword Douluo who has made a move. His Majesty Sword Douluo is the number one attacker on the continent, he will surely be able to repel the powerful enemy."

"Yes, Sword Douluo is at the pinnacle of swordsmanship. That person also uses a sword, but he is definitely no match for Sword Douluo."

The voices of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School disciples rose and fell, seemingly encouraging themselves, but they also believed in Sword Douluo's strength.

"A powerful enemy?"

Ning Fengzhi, who resided within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, also sensed Shen An's sword strike and rushed towards the outside of the school without hesitation.

The Seven Kill Sword and the sword energy condensed by Shen An were locked in combat. Naturally, the longsword composed of sword energy was inferior to the solid Seven Kill Sword.

After several probing moves, it had become quite illusory, but it was replenished by the gathering of sword energy.

Seeing Shen An's youthful face and sensing Shen An's fighting prowess just now, Chen Xin felt a surge of emotion, realizing that things had changed and that the younger generation was surpassing the older.

He laughed and said, "Why don't you fight me with your martial spirit? And why don't you show your spirit rings?"

Hearing Chen Xin's teasing, Shen An smiled slightly: "Senior Chen Xin, my martial soul has changed quite a bit, so you'd better be careful."

Immediately, seven spirit rings rose up: black, black, black, black, red, red, and gold!

Chen Xin was instantly unsettled. No, let's not even talk about why Shen Ancai, a Soul Saint, possessed such combat power.

Is this spirit ring configuration reasonable?

What the heck is a golden spirit ring?

Also, why did the first two spirit rings turn black?

To Chen Xin's utter astonishment, Shen An's once magnificent longsword had turned into a blade of grass.

A plant with nine leaves.

If you pull out a blade of grass during a fight, it's supposed to be quite funny.

But Chen Xin didn't show the slightest smile; instead, he looked at her with a solemn expression.

In his eyes, this was no mere blade of grass, but a peerless sword!

No, even the finest swords are not worthy of this title. This is a sword that can cut through everything in the world; it is a sword of unparalleled sharpness and overwhelming power!

At this moment, the Seven Kill Sword was trembling, and the sword cry it emitted was no longer clear.

Chen Xin looked at him with a complicated expression. He understood that his old friend was neither excited nor thrilled at this moment.

Rather—it's fear!

Even the Seven Kill Sword, the king of swords, is afraid of a blade of grass in Shen An's hand!

Chen Xin took another deep breath, gripping the Seven Kill Sword even tighter with his strong hand. The sword was merely something that people wielded.

Qi Sha was afraid, but Chen Xin was not!

At this moment, the fighting spirit of this peak swordsman grew wildly, and his sword intent was blazing and boiling, dazzling the heavens and earth!

"Let's fight!"

Chapter 309 Give me some face, please!

The dusty, old banyan tree looked at Shen An and Chen Xin in the sky with a resentful expression.

"Damn it, I got cleaved in two by a single sword strike. What a disgrace! That kid is too strong. How old is he anyway?"

"I wonder if that old hag can handle it," Gu Rong muttered to himself, rubbing his aching chest.

Chen Xin used his own sword intent to suppress the unease of the Seven Kill Sword. The Seven Kill Sword also sensed its master's fighting spirit and sword intent, and its originally weak sword chant gradually rose higher.

With a slight flick of his wrist, the Seven Kill Sword lit up, its azure blade piercing towards Shen An.

Shen Anyi threw himself into the battle wholeheartedly.

Previously, when Yan Chixia fought Chen Xin, it was purely a contest of swordsmanship and swordsmanship skills.

If Chen Xin had used his soul power at that time, Shen An would most likely have been the one to lose.

After all, Chen Xin was already a peak Douluo of level 97, and his combat power was approaching level 98.

But things are different now. He has broken through to the Soul Saint realm, and his combat power has undergone a tremendous change.

Faced with Chen Xin's sword strike, Shen An merely flicked his wrist slightly, and a large amount of sword energy emanated from the Qinghui Sword Grass in his hand.

"Soar to the heavens!"

The misty sword energy rushed towards Chen Xin like clouds and fog, causing the indifferent old man's expression to change drastically. He quickly withdrew his sword and changed his move.

The sharpness of this sword energy was unlike anything he had ever seen in his life, and its momentum was so fierce that it left no time for anyone to dodge.

Shen An was also very curious about how Chen Xin would dodge his sword strike. His sword strike seemed light and easy, but in fact, it used 20% of his soul power.

Don't underestimate Shen An's current 20% soul power. The combined energy of his seven soul rings, even when Gu Rong and Chen Xin are bound together, is less than his.

The moment Chen Xin, who should have been bathed in Shen An's sword energy, disappeared, a huge Seven Kill Sword, two meters long and half a meter wide, appeared in his place!

The sword hovered in the air, its appearance magnified many times over compared to before. The clear blue Seven Kill Sword Qi and Shen An's One Grass Sword Qi were locked in a fierce battle.

Shen An watched this scene in astonishment, secretly marveling that the former peak of swordsmanship was indeed not to be underestimated, as he was actually able to achieve oneness with his sword.

As for why it was once the pinnacle of swordsmanship, it's because Shen An quite liked that title and wanted it too.

After the Seven Kill Sword shattered Shen An's sword energy, the huge blade rose high and a dense blue light suddenly slashed down, a huge blue light blade like a rainbow piercing the sun heading straight for Shen An.

A Soul Master with a Martial Soul True Body possesses immense power in every move, let alone Chen Xin, who has merged himself into the Seven Kill Sword.

Even if an ordinary Title Douluo were to unleash all his abilities at this moment, he would still perish on the spot under this sword strike.

The fact that the mainland is the first to attack carries significant weight.

Everyone was watching the two people in the air. How should Shen An deal with this?

Shen An took a step forward, and his sword intent rose higher and higher, like a pillar supporting the sky. His sword energy was so dense that it was beyond measure.

If you're already a Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, it would be too embarrassing to dodge other swords.

Shen An used grass as a sword and lightly slashed at Chen Xin.

Swish!

A single blade of grass, yet it unleashed a power akin to splitting the heavens and earth!

In an instant, the thick dark clouds parted neatly, as if a large gash had been opened, revealing the stars and moon hidden behind them.

The blue-green light blades intertwined, bursting forth with a violent clang, as if thunder were roaring in the sky, deafening everyone.

The disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School were all stunned. This unknown powerhouse was actually able to fight on par with their sect's Sword Douluo.

But little did they know that Chen Xin was at a loss for words. He discovered that his Seven Kill Sword Qi seemed to have weakened considerably in the face of Shen An's sword qi.

This is the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass's equal suppression of all sword-type martial souls.

Moreover, Shen An's sword energy quality was reduced to nothing.

Judging from Shen An's expression, it seemed as if the sword energy he was unleashed had no effect on him whatsoever.

'No, we can't fight a protracted war; we must finish this quickly.' Chen Xin made up his mind.

"A thirteen-stringed melody in a cup, half a lifetime of trials and tribulations, all returned to a single sword!" A powerful voice came from all directions.

Ning Fengzhi watched with a solemn expression. 'You actually forced Uncle Jian to use this move. Shen An, you are too monstrous!' He was shocked.

This move can be said to be the culmination of Chen Xin's entire foundation over the years, a perfect integration of his swordsmanship, his own soul power, and even his soul rings.

Chen Xin once said that he wanted to use this sword to challenge the powerful Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall, who was like a god.

A massive Seven Kill Sword burst forth with a clear blue light in the sky, and a towering, azure phantom over five meters tall appeared in the pitch-black night sky, displaying unparalleled divine power!

The phantom looked exactly like Chen Xin. The phantom held a sword in one hand, as if it had grasped the ultimate truth of heaven and earth. The sword aura on the huge Seven Kill Sword was raised countless times.

The Seven Kill Sword pointed into the void, unleashing six consecutive sword strikes, and a massive black "kill" character appeared in mid-air.

The entire night sky lit up because of this huge character for "kill," and the imposing aura emanating from the dark character made all the disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School bow down in worship.

This incredibly powerful attack, however, ignited the arrogance of the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass.

Shen An felt the fighting spirit of the martial spirit in his hand, a kind of arrogance that seemed to disapprove of other swords showing off in front of him.

Thus, the sword energy within Shen An surged like a vast ocean, and his sword intent, capable of cleaving the sun, moon, and stars, burst forth.

At this moment, the endless sword energy from the sword domain, which spanned thousands of meters, surged wildly, and the place where Shen An was located had formed a vortex like the deep sea.

The Nine-Leaf Sword Grass spun out, its body translucent, its nine leaves flipping, unleashing a torrent of sword energy that tore apart vast swathes of space.

The dazzling sword light illuminated the entire night sky, with cyan sword light spreading across the heavens, pressing down on the dark character "kill".

"when!!!"

The blue and black colors collided, and the character for "kill" became illusory at a visible speed, as if it were about to collapse.

Chen Xin groaned, pouring all his soul power into it, and the huge character "Kill" shone brightly again.

A violent explosion rang out, and the word "kill" and the towering sword energy came to a standstill.

Suddenly, a voice reached Shen An's ears; it was Gu Rong.

"Shen An, I'm begging you today. I just said you're an enemy. You can't make me and this old bastard lose face in front of so many disciples."

"Just give me some face and pretend you can't beat them. Anyway, those disciples underground can't see your face clearly."

"For Zhuqing and Rongrong's sake, you'll have to put up with this."

Gu Rong's words were pleading; after all, what young man isn't competitive? Since he was asking for a favor, he had to be respectful.

Shen An smiled. He had already measured his own combat strength and found it to be absolutely superior to Chen Xin's current level. Even a level 98 Title Douluo would not be his match.

The only thing that made Shen An uncertain about victory was the level 99 Title Douluo, because the sword strike he had witnessed that day was simply too powerful.

However, what Shen An didn't know was that Qian Daoliu's sword strike was made in his capacity as an angel god worshipper, using some of the angel's divine power, and he even used the angel's holy sword.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to "kill" Bibi Dong, who was level 98, with a single sword strike.

Of course, Bibi Dong is immortal, but that attack would be unbearable for any level 98 Title Douluo.

Shen An, still having the energy, transmitted his voice to Gu Rong: "No problem."

Chen Xin had once stopped several Title Douluos for him during the Soul Master Competition, but it was just a pretense of failure.

Immediately with a thought, the originally condensed and undispersed azure light was instantly dispersed by the word "kill," emitting bursts of thunderous sounds.

Using his teleportation ability within the sword domain, Shen An transformed into a wisp of sword energy and instantly traveled a thousand meters away.

Chen Xin was stunned, not understanding why Shen An, who had originally held an absolute advantage, had suddenly left.

Then his old companion, Gu Rong, quickly flew into the sky and shouted, "The formidable enemy has been defeated!"

Chen Xin blushed and instantly understood why Gu Rong had left.

On the ground, the disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School cheered continuously.

"Your Majesty Sword Douluo is mighty!"

"Sword Douluo is invincible!"

Sword Douluo Chen Xin blushed and glared fiercely at Gu Rong.

He Chenxin has always been an upright person. He has never fixed a match in his life. He believes that losing is losing and winning is winning. In his opinion, there is no point in worrying about victory or defeat.

Unexpectedly, Shen An has now yielded to him, but for the sake of the reputation of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he cannot reveal the truth.

······

Inside the main hall of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Shen An, Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong gathered together.

And of course, there's Tom and Jerry.

As for Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing, they were still resting, so they didn't disturb them.

Shen An and Chen Xin's battle took place outside the sect, so it naturally wouldn't disturb the two women who lived deep within the sect.

“Shen An, time seems to have lost its thickness in front of you,” Ning Fengzhi said with a complicated expression.

It's only been three years since the Soul Master Competition ended, and even Sword Douluo Chen Xin can't beat Shen An anymore.

Shen An smiled gently, neither feigning humility nor appearing arrogant.

Chen Xin also said seriously, "Tonight, this old bone has made the first statement. For the sake of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, I have no choice but to be shameless. Shen An, we will have another duel another day. Now you are the true pinnacle of swordsmanship."
