Many experts from foreign provinces also looked grave.
After all, one could easily see whether a person was capable just by a single move.
They could see that Ding Hao and Mu Tianyang were only probing each other through the fight. Both sides were still extremely cautious that they didn’t show out their cards right away. The experts were all simply surprised by the sheer exquisiteness of the saber technique and swordsmanship of the two, and the mastery of their movements. For them, every move was eye-opening.
They more or less despised the practitioners from Snow Province, the martial arts desert, but at this moment, these experts from foreign provinces had to admit that the two young men in front of them were rare geniuses, even in the entire Northern Region.
In less than fifteen minutes, the two had exchanged many moves in the void.
All of a sudden, the sparks in the void disappeared.
The sound of swords colliding echoed between the mountains, but Mu Tianyang and Ding Hao had already returned to their respective peaks.
Mu Tianyang sneered and said, “The Swordsmanship-seeking Sect is just so-so.”
He held the sword with one hand. Glowing brightly, the sword was white as ice and crystal as jade, with no trace of scratch. This snow sword was undoubtedly a rare treasure, given that it remained intact after the head-on collision against the rusted sword and the magic saber.
“I don’t see how brilliant the swordsmanship of Tranquility Academy is,” Ding Hao said calmly, “Show me your real strength. Stop testing me. If this is all you’ve got, you will definitely lose today’s battle.”
“Fine.”
Mu Tianyang’s answer was very short.
In the next moment, traces of mysterious black mist slowly spread out from his body.
It suddenly became puzzling.
Mu Tianyang had looked holy. He had been as white as snow from head to toe, even his hair and beard were white. However, under the lingering black mist, he became indescribably gloomy and terrifying, as if a dark demon inside his body was slowly replacing him.
The black fog slowly spread out and flickered like smoke, as if it was alive.
An indescribable, almost demonic, aura, spread out from Mu Tianyang’s body.
Ding Hao frowned slightly.
The Saber Master and the Sword Master once said that there might be some kind of divine blood flowing in Mu Tianyang’s body and he had a bloodline body. However, in the legends about Mu Tianyang, he had never been seen using the Blood Battle Body. At this moment, the power he displayed should have something to do with it.
However, this mysterious battle body was so dark and gloomy that it was like a demon imprisoned in the abyss of the netherworld.
And at this moment, Ding Hao suddenly had a feeling that even surprised himself: this dark Qi looked extremely familiar as if he had seen it somewhere before.
In the next moment, the thick black mist spread like vines, wrapping around Mu Tianyang’s snow sword.
“Slash!”
Mu Tianyang stood where he was, holding the sword with both hands. He raised it above his head and then waved it down inch by inch.
The whole movement was natural, elegant, with no trace of worldliness.
However, the sword in his hand was hundreds of meters away from the North Peak. When he slashed out, there was no sword light, no aura, and no Qi. It was like a child waving his sword. It seemed that he could in no way hurt Ding Hao who was more than 100 meters away.
Most people were stunned at this moment.
However, the expression on Ding Hao’s face changed.
He sensed a great crisis.
At the same time, he activated the Heaven Fire and Hell Ice Qi. The silver shining ice and the golden jumping flames spread out from Ding Hao’s body. The magic saber was bathed in golden flames, glinting with strange patterns. The sword was covered by the silver ice, and the rust on its surface seemed to be falling off. The edge between the rust was crystal clear, bursting with bright brilliance.
Clang!
Ding Hao crossed the magic saber against the rusted sword above his head in the void.
Boom!
The void shook violently.
There was a sound of a collision.
The next moment, a giant black blade with a length of 100 meters suddenly appeared in the rippling void.
No one knew what the black demonic blade was made of. It was dark like a black hole, even light would be distorted when passing by it. The surrounding space trembled slowly like running water, causing ripples. But right at this moment, the magic blade and the rusted sword blocked the blade. If it was any longer, the giant black blade could cut the whole North Peak into pieces.
A burst of exclamation rose from all sides.
The giant black blade could conceal itself in the void without emitting any Qi. It was so well-hidden that many people had failed to notice its existence before.
It could be imagined that if it had been any of the onlookers, they would not have been able to detect this hidden attack at all and would have been cut into two pieces by the giant black blade. No one doubted its attack power.
This was definitely a terrible killing move.
It could kill people without leaving a trace.
Ding Hao used the magic saber and the rusted sword to hold the black giant blade and felt an indescribable majestic pressure pressing down.
Looking from a distance, compared with the huge black blade, the magic saber and the rusted sword were as short as two toothpicks, but they still managed to resist the attack.
Mu Tianyang shouted, and the snow sword in his hand, which was shrouded in black mist, suddenly pressed down.
There was no doubt that the black giant blade was the projection of the mutated snow sword and was controlled by it.
Boom!
The Frozen Peak trembled. Countless ice stones rolled down the mountain.
Ding Hao laughed. “Haha, it is not good enough.” His arms suddenly exerted force and twisted violently.
Crack!
The giant black demonic blade was twisted by the rusted sword and the magic saber, which were as small as toothpicks. Immediately, being severely hit, the surface of the blade started to crack, and then it split open inch by inch. Finally, with a bang, it was completely broken. Dark pieces flew all over the sky like black butterflies, and finally turned into wisps of black mist, dissipating in the void.
On the South Peak, Mu Tianyang took one step back.
The black mist lingering on the surface of the snow sword suddenly vanished into thin air like evaporating snow.
He remained calm and didn’t retreat.
Still holding the snow sword with both hands, Mu Tianyang shouted. More black mist loomed out of his body, madly sprawling around the snow sword. Wherever it passed, the snow-white blade turned jet-black, as if it had been smeared with black paint. In an instant, the whole snow sword turned into a ghastly gloomy black demonic sword.
“Slash!”
Mu Tianyang held the sword with both hands and chopped down as fast as lightning.
This time, it was no longer an invisible blade.
Another black demonic blade of more than a hundred meters long appeared in the void.
It had been invisible in the previous attack.
However, this time, the demonic blade exhibited an intimidating power. It stood erect between earth and sky, like an ancient demonic god. Around the blade, faint clusters of black Devil Qi turned into thousands of demons that appeared and disappeared from time to time, crying and howling. The demonic sound echoed and the whole void was black.
Heaven and earth changed color upon the impact of the demonic blade.
In this instant, the whole void was cut in two like a transparent cake and rolled up on both sides of the demonic blade. The blade light was invincible, as if this whole world was going to be divided into two parts by it.
“Well, it starts to become interesting.”
Ding Hao laughed.
This was indeed an astonishingly powerful killing move.
Its power was comparable to that of a three-apertured Martial Emperor.
Ding Hao jumped up and went straight to the lethal blade.
With a gentle wave of the rusted sword and the magic saber in his hands, he sent endless saber radiance and sword light out.
Clash! Clash! Clash!
Sparks flew all over the place against the sound of the collision.
The giant demonic blade seemed to be real. It was hit by the saber radiance and sword light, causing sparks to fly in all directions. Under thousands of collisions per second, the magic blade began to tremble slightly, and the downward attack finally slowed down a little.
On the distant South Peak, Mu Tianyang was holding the long ink-black sword. His hands also trembled slightly, as if he was suffering from a brutal counterattack.
In the sky.
Ding Hao’s body turned into a ball of golden and silver light. Golden saber radiance and silver sword light kept shooting out and madly hit the huge demonic blade. Although it seemed time-consuming, the blade was hauled bit by bit.
Before anyone realized…
Under the impact of tens of millions of saber and sword lights from Ding Hao, the color on the tip of the giant demonic sword started to change from thick black to gold and silver, as if it was about to melt.
The thousands of saber radiance and sword light that Ding Hao struck out accurately hit the same spot on the giant demonic blade.
On the South Peak, Mu Tianyang seemed to have suffered a heavy blow.
He was holding the black snow sword. Veins pushed up against the skin of his hands. His muscles were bulging, and there were faint beads of blood seeping out of his pores. It seemed that the light of thousands of swords was not on the blade, but the black snow sword in his hand.
No one would know what kind of pressure Mu Tianyang had withstood.
The seemingly casual saber and sword light shot by Ding Hao contained the physical power of a two-apertured Martial Emperor. When it hit the demonic blade, the force would reflect on the snow sword. Although Mu Tianyang had displayed the secret killing move, he also bore the horrible counter force. If it had been any other, even another expert in the two-apertured Martial Emperor Realm, they would probably have been smashed into meat paste after five or six hits.
Who dares wins in a narrow path!
Withstanding the horrible counterforce, Mu Tianyang suddenly wielded his sword, intending to cut Ding Hao into pieces with the giant demonic blade.
But…
“Haha, it seems that this didn’t work either. Break it!”
Ding Hao shouted and paused.
The clashing lights all over the sky disappeared. He withdrew the rusted sword and the magic saber with unstoppable force.
