Nine Yang Sword Saint Chapter 96

Chapter 96 - The Battle with Tang Li, Kill!

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

The level of Tang Li’s Xuan energy should be around five times Yang Dingtian’s. His speed should also be twice Yang Dingtian’s.

So, this battle was completely different from the previous battle with Gan Lang.

Gan Lang’s unique characteristic was his speed, tricks, and deadly cunning. Under the circumstances in which his opponent wasn’t prepared, he killed over dozens of Xuan Martial Warriors.

However, as long as one perceived his patterns, dealing with him would be very easy. After Yang Dingtian saw through his tricks just now, fighting against him became much easier. In only a few seconds, he was ripped into pieces by Yang Dingtian.

But it’s different for Tang Li. The most obvious differences between him and Yang Dingtian were their strength and speed. Such a difference was very difficult to overcome relying only on the uniqueness of one’s techniques.

This was because Xuan energy was king in the world and represented a person’s true strength!

Therefore, this battle would be much more difficult than the match with Gan Lang! Because this match was an absolute confrontation of Xuan energy!

The five times gap was way too difficult to overcome!

*****

“Yang Dingtian, if I were you, I would have definitely made that bloody oath using Ximen Wuya’s name. He’s dead anyway, so what if he were to be slashed a thousand times in hell?” Tang Li said softly so that only Yang Dingtian could hear him. “You are too dumb. Elder Yang Yan saw this stupidity of yours and came out with this condition. And then, you really did come and seek death.”

Tang Li did not immediately start the battle with Yang Dingtian but talked to him first.

Despite how furious Yang Dingtian was in his heart, he ignored him and only stared at him coldly like a beast that was getting ready to attack.

“Let me tell you, Yang Qi was nothing, and his death doesn’t concern me. That dumb thing offended many people, and no one knows who killed him. I personally don’t think that you killed him since you were only an enlightener at the time.” Tang Li laughed and said, “I am killing you solely because of Qin Shaobai. Because I am about to become the son-in-law of Northwest Qin family.”

Yang Dingtian still ignored him.

“Don’t worry, after you die, Qin Shaobai will personally take care of your Ximen Yanyan on your behalf. After he had enough of her, he will give her to his brother, Qin Huaiyu to show their brotherhood.” Tang Li continued, “Unfortunately, there won’t be my share. I have been eyeing Ximen Yanyan for many years and I remember peeking at her when she was showering a few times. I was beaten terribly after getting caught. After Qin Shaobai sleeps with Ximen Yanyan, I’ll beg him to let me see Ximen Yanyan’s huge buttocks and even touch it a little since I was the one who killed you!”

Yang Dingtian’s breathing became rough, and he became furious. He initially thought that he wouldn’t get angry no matter what poisonous provocations were sent his way. But when this beast said such insulting words about Yanyan, Yang Dingtian couldn’t help but get angry.

“It seems like that only one of us will leave alive today,” Yang Dingtian said coldly: “If it’s not you who dies, then it’ll be me.”

Tang Li laughed and said, “I told you in front of the Hidden Art Pavilion that I will definitely kill you.”

“Cut all the nonsense. Let’s fight!”

…..

“Kill!”

“Kill!”

Tang Li was holding a hundred-kilogram gigantic bloody sword. Besides being a Four-star Xuan Martial Warrior, he was also extremely strong. Therefore, his playing around with the gigantic bloody sword was shocking for everyone present. The sound of it whistling through the air was like the cry of a ghost or the howl of a wolf, instilling fear in everyone.

Meanwhile, the three-foot-long strange blade with a weird shape in Yang Dingtian’s hand looked like a twisted piece of iron and was not intimidating at all. On appearances alone, the two weapons seemed to be completely the opposite in quality. The strange blade in Yang Dingtian’s hand seemed like it wasn’t even qualified to carry shoes for Tang Li’s bloody sword.

A loud noise was heard. Both Tang Li and Yang Dingtian slammed against one another like Mars crashing into the earth. The solid ground broke, and shattered rock flew out.

“Bang…” There was a hole in Tang Li’s gigantic bloody blade, but he did not move even a little, and his expression did not change either!

As for Yang Dingtian, he took dozens of steps back and coughed out a mouthful of blood.

The moment both weapons met, an incredible Xuan energy flowed through Yang Dingtian’s sword and rushed into his body. Instantly, his chest felt like it’d been hit by a gigantic piece of rock, causing all the veins in his body to feel like they were about to tear apart. All of his bones felt like they were broken, causing him to feel excruciating pain.

For the first move, Yang Dingtian actually chose to face him directly!

Everyone looked at Yang Dingtian in disbelief, not understanding this decision because his strength was in his sword arts. Why didn’t he use his mysterious sword art to fight but used Xuan energy instead? It was obviously using one’s weakness to fight against another’s strength.

Yang Dingtian had done it on purpose to test how powerful Tang Li’s Xuan energy was. He wanted to see how strong of a Xuan energy attack his body was capable of withstanding.

Now, the result of the test was out.

Seeing how Yang Dingtian merely took dozens of steps back and coughed up some blood after taking his full power attack, Tang Li was shocked by Yang Dingtian’s unexpected sturdiness. Originally, based on the difference between their cultivation levels, Yang Dingtian’s Xuan veins should’ve been all been shattered, and his organs should have been pulverized into paste.

“You could withstand one of my strikes, but how about ten or twenty?” Tang Li said coldly.

Then, he concentrated all of his Xuan energy into the bloody sword again. In an instant, there was blood-red light glowing on the gigantic bloody blade. It looked extremely violent and arrogant.

“The Mad Sword of the Devil….,” Tang Li shouted out loud, and his sword swept forward towards Yang Dingtian, looking extremely fierce.

The fourth move of the Pig Killing Swordsmanship: Dig out the heart and lungs!

The strange sword in Yang Dingtian’s hands moved like a poisonous snake, welcoming Tang Li’s bloody sword.

This “Dig out the heart and lungs” move could not only block the opponent’s blade but also divert the direction of the weapon and disperse its energy quickly.

Instantly, Yang Dingtian’s sword struck Tang Li’s bloody sword. Yang Dingtian’s wrist trembled as he attempted to disperse the energy in Tang Li’s sword.

However, an incredibly powerful Xuan energy rushed into his body.

“Boom…”Yang Dingtian’s body violently bounced dozens of steps back, and he coughed up another mouthful of blood.

Yang Dingtian’s plan failed as Xuan energy wasn’t strength but instantly transferred energy. It could never be completely dispersed!

Xuan energy was truly the king. This huge Xuan energy between them was difficult to overcome using technique alone.

…..

After taking two of Tang Li’s move, Yang Dingtian had really coughed out two mouthfuls of blood.

All of the watching disciples showed their worry on their faces! Their overzealous minds instantly became clear.

There was no doubt that Yang Dingtian’s performance was incredible. However, he was merely a Xuan Martial Artist, and his mysterious techniques won’t be of much use here. Xuan energy was everything in this world of martial arts.

Hence, they shouldn’t have such high expectations of him due to the previous performance.

Yang Dingtian swallowed a mouthful of boiling blood and stared at the arrogant Tang Li standing before him. The difference in Xuan energy was really difficult to overcome.

“You have no hope,” Tang Li laughed and said. “In this world, no one is able to win a cross-realm battle!”

No doubt, in the past hundred years, no one has ever won a cross-realm battle. The most notable victory across realms happened 300 years ago. It was a battle between the Wooden Sword Fortress Lord, Li Tianxiao, and the third son of the Northwest Qin family.

Li Tianxiao was exactly one level and a dozen ranks lower than the third son of the Qin family, but he eventually won the battle and killed his opponent.

But that was because Li Tianxiao was enchanted, and he became the greatest traitor of the league of Heaven’s Order!

…..

Yang Dingtian wiped off the blood at the edge of his mouth!

In the first test, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

In the second exchange, his attempt to use the mysterious sword art to neutralize Tang Li’s sword failed, and he coughed up more blood.

He tested the waters twice and coughed up blood twice! However, those exchanges allowed Yang Dingtian to understand Tang Li’s style, combat pattern, and his Sword of the Devil art!

Now, the last exchange was about to begin!

The final exchange was also going to be the most dangerous way!

He had to work his way through close combat!

He had to close in on Yang Li and use the mysterious sword art to take his life! Based on the observation of two of his moves, Yang Dingtian realized that Tang Li’s Sword of the Devil art was truly arrogant. Any attack he launched could multiply a few times with the addition of only a little bit of Xuan energy. But technique-wise, it was considered easy and completely straightforward to execute!

Thus, as soon as Yang Dingtian closed in, he would use his sword art to neutralize the Sword of the Devil art.

But obviously, this move was incredibly dangerous because if he was cut by Tang Li, he would definitely die!

Yang Dingtian was able to block Gan Lang’s sword but not Tang Li’s. This was because Tang Li’s Xuan energy was several times greater than his. He simply didn’t have the strength to block it.

As soon as he got close, Tang Li would be able to pierce his body no matter how mysterious his sword art was compared to Tang Li’s simple swordsmanship. Yang Dingtian’s sword won’t be able to block it.

As a result, Yang Dingtian’s final move would be reborn from certain death!

“Huuu…”Yang Dingtian let out a long breath and stared at Tang Li, who was twenty meters away.

He needed to formulate another attack, another perfect attack. As soon as he fails or makes any mistakes, he would be the one to end up dead!

A few seconds later, Yang Dingtian’s brain had already planned out dozens of sword art combinations! If he didn’t predict Tang Li’s move incorrectly, his sword art attack might be effective!

Then, the only thing that remained to do was to get within three steps of Tang Li, at least within striking distance with his sword!

Closing in on Tang Li would probably be the most difficult and most dangerous part. This was because Tang Li’s speed was twice Yang Dingtian’s, and his Xuan energy was five times his.

The method that Yang Dingtian chose to close in was to….slowly walk to him!

Indeed, the plan was to slowly and righteously walk up to him! He would close in on Tang Li step by step.

Instantly, the screams of the spectators could be heard. Had Yang Dingtian gone mad? This was completely a suicide action. Walking over like that would allow Tang Li to attack him at any time. With his target moving so slowly, Tang Li could cut him down whenever he wanted.

Just like that, Yang Dingtian walked step-by-step towards Tang Li.

Of course, the arrogant Tang Li did not attack but held his bloody sword while showing a cold smile.

Soon, they were only one meter apart, the length of a sword.

Tang Li’s laughter became more and more violent, and he gradually raised his sword.

Yang Dingtian slowly inserted all of his Xuan energy into the strange Millennium Owl Blade. The strange blade immediately started vibrating, increasing the potency of the Xuan energy within by twenty percent.

“Let me tell you something,” Yang Dingtian suddenly said.

“Speak, this will be your last chance to do so.” Tang Li smiled.

“I killed Yang Qi. I killed him when I was practicing in the wilds. Then, I threw him into the magma abyss, destroying his body….,” Yang Dingtian said in a soft voice that could only be heard by Tang Li.

Tang Li was shocked as Yang Dingtian was just an enlightener at that time. He really did somehow kill Yang Qi! Thus, Tang Li’s thoughts were confused for a second!

Yang Dingtian’s gaze turned cold, and at that moment, he attacked!

“Bang…..”Yang Dingtian exploded like a beast.

An incredibly blinding light shot out of the strange Millennium Owl blade in his hands.

The first move of Pig Killing Swordsmanship: Stab the throat and deplete the blood!

Yang Dingtian’s sword was as quick as a shooting star, using energy from both hands to pierce towards Tang Li’s neck!

Tang Li was shocked! This time, he seemed to choose to retreat as he was much faster than Yang Dingtian!

But, he didn’t!

He performed an amazing move and avoided Yang Dingtian’s throat piercing sword! Then, he immediately counterattacked. The bloody sword in his hands slanted and swept towards Yang Dingtian’s waist. It was an incredibly sharp and violent sword!

Yang Dingtian should have retreated, but he didn’t!

Xuwu Nine Disasters Sword: Selfless!

Instantly, the sword in his hands became solid and majestic. Not only did he not retreat, but he even seemed to welcome Tang Li’s bloody sword!

Be reborn from death. This was his being reborn after death!

The seventh move of the Pig Killing Swordsmanship: Break into two pieces!

Under the shocked gazes of everyone, Yang Dingtian slammed into Tang Li’s bloody sword like a martyr with his gigantic Millennium Owl Sword still aimed towards Tang Li’s chest. The sharp sword sliced down, and a mass of light burst out of the gigantic Millennium Owl Sword.

This was the time to kill Tang Li!

Whether he was able to kill Tang Li or not depended on this moment!

Yang Dingtian had bet his life. He’d shown the sign of willing to die together with his opponent as he put in all his effort towards attacking Tang Li.

“Bang….”

Tang Li’s sword cut Yang Dingtian’s belly.

Meanwhile, Yang Dingtian’s sword also cut violently into Tang Li’s chest.

“Whoosh…..”Blood spurted, and Yang Dingtian’s body flew dozens of meters away and slammed onto the ground!

While Tang Li was still standing at the same place, his chest was a little torn and was bleeding!

There was absolute silence as everyone stared at the shocking scene!

Be reborn after death. Yang Dingtian had bet his life to attack Tang Li.

Now, he was about to succeed!

Everyone was waiting for Tang Li to fall, waiting for Yang Dingtian to create another miracle!

Tang Li looked down at the bloody wound on his chest. His eyes, hands, his entire body trembled.

One second!

Two seconds…..

Three seconds…

Everyone was waiting for him to fall!

“Hahahahah…..”Suddenly, Tang Li burst into laughter, and he tore his clothes apart, revealing his muscular upper body and a golden net shirt!

“Yang Dingtian, it’s not just you who has a protective treasure. I have one as well!” Tang Li laughed and said, “But your weapon is really powerful. It even broke my Xuan Iron Clothes, penetrated half an inch into my chest, and broke five of my ribs!”

Tang Li laughed as he coughed and spurted blood!

“Be reborn after death. You are truly determined and really amazing…,” Tang Li said: “If I didn’t have the Xuan Iron clothes, I’m afraid that I would’ve really died under your sword.”

“But, you didn’t manage to kill me. So now, it is your turn to die!”

Tang Li’s gaze was filled with anger and killing intent.

Then, he brandished his bloody blade and slowly walked towards Yang Dingtian. He was about to rip Yang Dingtian’s body into pieces.

Although Yang Dingtian’s deadly sword attack didn’t manage to kill him, he was heavily injured like never before, so much so that his cultivation progress would stagnate for two years.

Tang Li was taking the steps of a grim reaper, getting closer to Yang Dingtian step by step with a killing aura.

After twenty steps, Tang Li was finally standing in front of Yang Dingtian. He said softly, “You can die peacefully. We will take care of Ximen Yanyan and Ximen Ningning for you, take care of them in bed. Now, you can die…”

After he finished speaking, Tang Li used all of his strength and was about to slam his sword down.

“Hold on, we admit our defeat….” Yanyan rushed out and shouted, “Stop, we’ll leave Cloud Sky City!”

Tang Li’s sword stopped immediately, waiting for Yang Yan’s order.

Yang Yan Elder frowned a little and said, “It’s too late to admit your defeat now!”

“Yang Dingtian, die….,” Tang Li yelled as he aimed at his neck and slammed his sword down!

“No…..,” Yanyan screamed and was about to faint!

At this exact moment, Yang Dingtian suddenly opened his eyes, and his sword struck out like a poisonous snake.

“I said ‘be reborn after death’, and I was referring to this moment! I knew that you were wearing a protecting shield!”
