Chapter 300: Chapter 300: Assault on the Other Shore

Who could have imagined that the final outcome would be like this?

Luo Jian, the strongest genius of the younger generation, with the cultivation level of Nine Islands, should theoretically be invincible in the Other Shore Realm, but in fact, when he crossed hands with a "lower-rank" expert from the Other Shore Realm, he actually suffered a loss.

How could anyone accept this?

"Thunder Spirit Root!"

"My God, this guy not only has Dual Spirit Roots, but one of them is of the thunder attribute!"

"What was that just now that made the gravel float up and strike the opponent?"

"Dark Force?"

"No, no, no, Dark Force would be a direct attack, how could it have such an effect?"

"Some kind of special Martial Technique?"

Everyone was exclaiming, their scalps tingling with disbelief, witnessing for the first time such an impressive lower-rank Other Shore expert forcing a genius of Nine Islands into such an embarrassed and pitiful state.

Luo Jian also recovered his energy, he enveloped his body with Elemental Power, so that even if he was struck by thunder again, he would be able to dissolve it and not become paralyzed like before, unable to dodge attacks.

After all, Shi Hao’s cultivation level was far below his.

His face grimaced, it was the first time in his life he had suffered such a huge loss against someone of a similar age.

—— His clothes were torn and ragged, and many areas were bleeding, with some pieces of gravel still embedded in his skin.

This was a tremendous humiliation!

Shi Hao smiled and lifted his right hand, buzzing, another shower of gravel rose: "So, are we still fighting?"

Luo Jian’s expression kept changing, showing a hint of hesitation.

That gravel attack was too terrifying, each piece was small, but the speed at which they were launched was astonishing, and the destructive power was unimaginably great.

He was now forcibly enduring it, struggling to maintain his expression. If he were alone, his face would surely be contorted.

But, as the foremost among the younger generation of the Purple Star Sect, how could he simply walk away?

How could he face others in the future?

And when he ascended to the position of Sect Master, how could he command respect?

Therefore, he could not shrink back.

"Today, I must kill you!" Luo Jian declared ominously, saying this in front of everyone also left him with no way out.

At the shift of his thought, Shi Hao made the gravel fall to the ground.

He was feigning strength because the gravel he had branded with Weight Reducing Runes was all used up in that one attack.

——If he did not make a move, then all was well, but once he struck, it had to be a thunderous and violent blow.

Unfortunately, the gap in realm was too great, and he still couldn’t seriously wound Luo Jian.

He had hoped to scare Luo Jian off, but the other seemed determined to continue.

Alright then!

Shi Hao beckoned with his fingers: "Come, fight!"

Although all the gravel had fallen, Luo Jian dared not be the least bit careless, for by underestimating Shi Hao, he had already suffered several times.

And he knew, although his opponent was young, his mind was extremely shrewd and cunning.

What if this was feigning weakness on purpose?

He could not be careless; he didn’t want to suffer another loss.

The fight resumed, both sides extremely cautious.

In Shi Hao’s mind, thoughts flashed rapidly, seeking a method to defeat the enemy before him.

The Sky-Flipping Seal?

No, that move was strong, but if he couldn’t resolve Luo Jian with it, he would lose all capacity for self-defense, and it was not yet time for that.

What about the Ninefold Mountain then?

Worth a try.

With a thought, Shi Hao’s hand already held a saber.

"Hm?" Luo Jian appeared surprised, wasn’t this kid from the Cursed Land, how could he have a Spatial Spirit Tool?

Reviewing Shi Hao’s prior display of the Nine Lotuses defense, he concluded that Shi Hao had found a treasure trove. Whether it was the Defensive Spiritual Weapon or the Spatial Spirit Tool, they must have come from there.

So, this saber should be the same, right?

Very well, he accepted it.

"Even if you now wield a saber, what can you do to me?" Haolian said proudly.

With a boom, he clenched his fist with forceful energy and charged toward Shi Hao.

Shi Hao held his saber horizontally across his chest, and immediately, a sense of Saber Intent began to circulate.

Clang, clang, clang, all those who were armed with sabers felt their weapons vibrating as if responding to Shi Hao, while those who wielded other weapons found theirs trembling as though out of fear.

"My God, all the sabers are resonating together!"

"The second realm of sabersmanship!"

"And he’s not just entered this realm, but has already achieved considerable mastery."

The crowd exclaimed in awe, finding it unbelievable.

A youth who has reached such proficiency in sabersmanship?

Luo Jian was stunned, and a ton of jealousy rose up immediately.

Before, he regarded all of Shi Hao’s methods as reliance on the Spiritual Artifacts obtained from treasures, attributing the might to borrowed power; Shi Hao was just lucky, after all.

But now, seeing Shi Hao had reached the second realm of sabersmanship, there could be no attributing that to external objects, it had to be his own comprehension of the saber.

Although his name was "Jian" meaning "sword," the weapon he actually used was not a sword, but a spear.

And despite his diligent study in the way of the spear, he never could step into the second realm of spearmanship.

Fortunately, no one in the younger generation of the Purple Star Sect had been able to cross into the corresponding second realm either, which kept him from becoming anxious. As for Xiao Hei, with his Sword Body, naturally suited to sword cultivation, that was a different matter entirely.

Now, the young man standing before him, younger than he, had clearly mastered the second realm of sabersmanship.

—Is there such a thing as a Saber Body in this world?

He had never heard of it.

At this moment, he was filled with both jealousy and a murderous intent.

"Kill!" He struck out repeatedly with his palms, releasing Dark Force with the enhancement of metal elemental power, boosting the destructive force of his palm strikes.

As the palm energy approached, Shi Hao let out a light whistle and swung the Ninefold Mountain down.

Boom, the twenty-thousand-jin saber swung up, stirring a fierce wind.

With a single slash, the palm energy was actually split in half!

Shi Hao pressed forward, his saber slashing towards Luo Jian with chilling saber light.

"Hmph!" Luo Jian snorted coldly, striking out with his palms again and again.

Bang, bang, bang, one palm strike after another was unleashed. Despite Shi Hao’s valor and the might of the Ninefold Mountain, he was forcefully stopped, unable to advance further by even an inch.

The gap between their realms was simply too great.

Shi Hao’s brow wrinkled slightly; he couldn’t keep this up indefinitely, could he?

Good!

An idea sparked in his heart, time to play big.

Breakthrough to the Other Shore!

He actually could have broken through to the Other Shore long ago but had forcibly suppressed it to strive for the ten steps. Now that he had stayed in the ten steps for quite some time, he was certain the accumulation was sufficient.

Hum, he activated the Soul Seed Puppet to begin the assault on the Other Shore.

The barrier of his current realm immediately loosened, and he burst open not only the ten steps but relatively speaking, breaking through the Other Shore was a minor concern.

Boom, waves of aura surged from within him, like a vast ocean.

"What!"

"This is a freaking breakthrough!"

"The Other Shore!"

"He’s breaking through to the Other Shore!"

"Heaven!"

In that moment, everyone clasped their heads with their hands, some even clutching at their own hair.

Shi Hao was actually in the Soul Nurturing realm!

He hadn’t lied, but he was so monstrous that at the nine steps, he already possessed the combat power of the Other Shore Realm, leading everyone to mistakenly believe he was actually in the Other Shore Realm.

Luo Ping and his son had their mouths agape, completely rendered speechless.
