From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Chapter 247: Chapter 343: Ten Thousand Swords Slaying Heaven Technique!_1

"What is this..."

Xia Fu Lan stood petrified on the spot.

The Blade Storm had surpassed her understanding of swordsmanship; even the strongest sword technique should only be able to emit Sword Qi and Sword Intent. How could something like this occur?

This was absolutely some kind of Cultivation Technique, not a sword technique!

Hum—

The ground was torn apart by the Blade Storm, stones turned to dust swirling with the blades, the entire venue filled with the explosive sounds of cutting air.

"Sky-high Sword Intent!"

As the massive Blade Storm swept over, Xia Fu Lan immediately deployed Sword Intent beside her.

Hum—

A sound of Sword Intent rang out; from Xia Fu Lan's sword tip burst forth a silver aura. The silver aura drove the air, forming a powerful thrust that pushed her whole body outside the trajectory of the Blade Storm.

Hum—

The Blade Storm brushed past Xia Fu Lan's sword tip, and she felt a sensation on her skin as if it had been sliced by a blade. The next moment, she pushed her Sword Intent to its limit, propelling herself more than 10 meters away from the vile storm, only then did the pain on her skin slightly subside.

Boom—

As Xia Fu Lan escaped the attack radius of the Blade Storm, Fang Ren wielded his longsword, and the fierce Blade Storm instantly dissipated into threads of air.

Within the venue, the roaring noises came to an abrupt halt, leaving a tens-of-meters-long trench between Fang Ren and Xia Fu Lan. The stones inside the trench were very evenly cut by the blades.

The crowd watched this scene in the middle of the field, unable to recover their senses for a long time.

"Is this... swordsmanship?"

"How could this be! The power is already comparable to Cultivation Techniques! And I have never heard of Sword Intent turning into a storm!"

"But... Young Master Fang didn't show any fluctuations of True Qi during this process, it couldn't have been a Cultivation Technique."

"Right, although Madame Xuan lent Young Master Fang a Spiritual Weapon, she did not infuse it with True Qi. Being so impartial, Madame Xuan would not affect the fairness of this duel."

...

At this moment, seated in the special guest area, Song Mobei immediately spoke up, his tone light, "This transformation of Sword Intent shows that Young Master Fang's mastery of the Sword Dao is something even I am inferior to."

Upon hearing this, the Family Heads of the major clans in the special guest area turned their eyes towards Mu Huanqing, their looks filled with puzzlement.

Song Mobei's words were clearly a denial that any technique used by Fang Ren was due to his attainment in Sword Dao, because Song Mobei is recognized by humans as the peak of the sword path! How could Fang Ren possibly surpass him?

Song Mobei's words were a form of negation and simultaneously a satire towards Fang Ren.

In other words, it's impossible to reach such power using only sword technique without using True Qi, and even if it were possible, the Sword Intent should not be able to transform.

Therefore, under the current situation, all of them were unanimously convinced that Mu Huanqing was secretly helping Fang Ren.

Especially Bai Chaojin and Mu Qing Mountain, they were very clear about the relationship between Fang Ren and Mu Huanqing. Although they knew that Fang Ren's cultivation talent was terrifying, they didn't believe Fang Ren's Sword Dao could reach the level where Sword Intent could transform.

Because even the Sect Master of the Tiandao Sword Sect couldn't attain the level where Sword Intent can transform, which means whether or not Sword Intent can transform is still an unknown in the history of human cultivation.

"Lady Xuan!"

After Xia Fu Lan avoided Fang Ren's Blade Storm, her face was filled with rage. If it hadn't been for her timely evasion, she would have been hacked to mincemeat unless she used her True Qi to break the rules. Without breaking the rules, that was the fate she'd have faced!

And the fact that Fang Ren could use such a technique made her one hundred percent certain that it was Mu Huanqing interfering!

"You, the strongest cultivator among humans, dare to openly assist one side in a duel in front of so many people! Isn't that shameful!" Xia Fu Lan turned around and yelled at Mu Huanqing.

In her mind, the only reason Mu Huanqing would help Fang Ren must be due to the grudge from the past! Mu Huanqing wanted to use this duel to humiliate her, even to severely injure her!

That is to say, she wasn't just fighting Fang Ren, but Mu Huanqing was after her.

"What? Is Lady Xuan secretly manipulating the Spiritual Weapon?"

"That can't be, why would Lady Xuan intervene in this duel? It makes no sense."

"Reason... Ah! I just thought of a possibility, I have long heard that Princess Fulan has been smitten with Brother Song for a long time, could it be that Lady Xuan also likes Brother Song, so because of love..."

"Are you a fool! If Lady Xuan likes Brother Song, why would she say that speech before the match started?"

"Then... how do we explain the current situation?"

...

The chairman responsible for fairness also turned back to look at Mu Huanqing, his expression full of confusion, as if waiting for an explanation from her.

Seeing this, Mu Huanqing also felt relieved, because she hadn't helped Fang Ren at all. The Blade Storm was a technique Fang Ren had created with his swordsmanship, meaning he had decisively crushed her in sword technique without needing her Spiritual Weapon.

Mu Huanqing couldn't be bothered with Xia Fu Lan, instead, she stood up and spoke to Fang Ren, "Young Master Fang, it might be better to spar with Princess Fulan using a regular sword to avoid misunderstanding."

Fang Ren was helpless, he had never expected that by merely using the sword given by Mu Huanqing, this group of fools could come up with so many nonsensical ideas.

But the fundamental reason boiled down to everyone believing it was impossible for him to defeat Xia Fu Lan.

Fang Ren gave a helpless laugh, casually tossed the silver longsword in his hand toward Mu Huanqing, where the sword flew like a stream of light and landed perfectly on top of the Hundred Martial Divine Weapon hovering above her head, merging with it seamlessly.

He looked up with a pair of white eyes at Xia Fu Lan across from him and said, "Princess Fulan, you truly know nothing about the Sword Dao. Of course, Tiandao's Brother Song's achievements in Sword Dao seem to be just this, unable to understand anything."

Whoosh—

The whole place exploded again.

He actually said Brother Song's achievements in Sword Dao were just this! And that Brother Song could not understand anything?

Who was Song Mobei? He was the human pinnacle of the Sword Dao!

His achievements in Sword Dao even surpassed the Sect Master of Tiandao Sword Sect!

"Young Master Fang really must be insane! Utterly unreasonable!"

"It seems all the rumors were false, claiming that Young Master Fang had been keeping a low profile for twenty-two years, saying he would shock the world with one brilliant move—it turns out this arrogant guy had other reasons for hiding his strength all along!"

"How sad! To be so shamelessly jealous, how did he have such dumb luck to be engaged to Princess Bai Xi?!"

"Such an impudent person! Even with high Alchemy talent, I fear he will achieve little in the future!"

...

For a time, the scene was filled with slander and curses towards Fang Ren.

Head of Fang family, Fang Yuanhao, was not feeling good at all. He even wanted to stand up and shout loudly that this Fang Ren was not their Fang family's seed!

Meanwhile, sitting in the audience, Fang Liqun laughed heartily. This Fang Ren didn't know how high the sky was; Bai Xi would definitely not like him. It seemed that they didn't have to lift a finger, Bai Xi herself would break off the engagement with Fang Ren due to her disdain for him.

When Xia Fu Lan saw Fang Ren return the longsword to Mu Huanqing, the atmosphere in her heart instantly turned into extreme excitement.

Because not only could she cause Fang Ren to be utterly disgraced this time, but she could also drag Mu Huanqing down! For her, a being of Mysteria, to indulge personal feelings during someone else's duel!

That was enough to make Mu Huanqing's life uncomfortable!

This bout of Sword Dao sparring was worth it for Xia Fu Lan!

"Heh! A furiously embarrassed thing! How dare you insult my brother!" Xia Fu Lan called her Spirit Form back into her body and shouted toward the Tiandao disciples in the distance, "Brothers and sisters, lend me two longswords! Today I will teach this insolent fool a lesson!"

Having said that, Xia Fu Lan caught the two longswords thrown by the Tiandao disciples, tossed one to Fang Ren, and said with a face full of righteousness, "Fang Ren! You must pay the price for your actions today!"

Crack—

Just as Xia Fu Lan's words fell, the longsword she threw toward Fang Ren was sliced in half midair by an aura of Sword Intent.

The clear sound of steel breaking spread throughout the venue, and the noisy scene suddenly fell into dead silence again.

Because just now, they saw very clearly that the Sword Qi had been casually released by Fang Ren—yes, with his hand.

Launching Sword Intent with his hand?

How was that possible, everyone began to doubt what they had just witnessed.

Xia Fu Lan's whole action froze. She looked at the expressionless Fang Ren standing opposite her. He was standing there very quietly, but she always felt that something inexplicable was gathering around Fang Ren.

"Princess Fulan, Brother Song, watch closely and learn well," Fang Ren said.

In the silent arena, Fang Ren's white pupils suddenly burst a silver light, his body devoid of any True Qi fluctuations.

Boom—

Suddenly, the air around Fang Ren's body exploded, starting to twist, to morph, coalescing into strands of Sword Intent—dozens, then hundreds, and eventually tens of thousands!

All the Sword Intent floated in mid-air, standing valiantly behind Fang Ren like a host of divine warriors.

"Ten Thousand Swords Slaying Heaven Technique!"

With a roar, thousands upon thousands of Sword Intent behind Fang Ren shot out like a torrential storm toward the dazed Xia Fu Lan across from him, ripping through the air, unstoppable as thunder!

In an instant, Xia Fu Lan felt her life threatened, her brain unable to think calmly, and her instinctual fear made her use True Qi.

"God Sword Shield!"

Xia Fu Lan's True Qi burst out, transforming into a giant sword descending from the sky, shielding her in front.

Hum—rumble rumble—

The frenzied storm of Sword Intent collided with the giant Sword Shield, sparking continuously upon impact.

Countless Sword Qi were deflected by the Sword Shield, falling in the center of the arena and cutting trenches into the ground!

The deafening sound, and then inside the venue, many Alchemists without Cultivation Ability covered their ears, staring dumbfounded at the explosion at the center of the field like petrified sculptures.

This time there was no Lady Xuan's Spiritual Weapon.

How... how should they make sense of what they saw?
