Chapter 159 - 158 Starting Heaven Shaking Gate!

Chapter 159: Chapter 158 Starting Heaven Shaking Gate!

"Yanliang knows that no one has faith in me, but Yanliang believes that going against the trend is what we cultivators should do!"

Zhang Yanliang faced the situation calmly, embodying the openness and fearlessness of a true gentleman.

His words immediately earned the admiration of the students from Lie Tian Academy, who praised him repeatedly:

"Worthy of being our senior brother, fearless against strong enemies, tackling difficulties head-on, truly a role model for our generation!"

Everyone was full of praise.

Many disciples from the Emperor Immortal Sect were influenced by Zhang Yanliang’s attitude, admiration gleaming in their eyes.

"This Zhang Yanliang agreed in haste just to avoid losing face, and now he cannot take it back, so he says all this to salvage his image," said Zhu Xiaofei, his face wearing a peculiar expression, whispering:

"This way, even if he loses to the senior brother, no one in Lie Tian Academy will blame him."

"Besides, isn’t it our senior brother who is fighting above his level? How come it seems like that guy is the one doing it..."

Although Zhu Xiaofei’s voice was soft, everyone present was a cultivator, so how could they not hear it?

Suddenly, the disciples of the Emperor Immortal Sect looked stunned, and after a moment of reflection, it seemed to be the case!

At that time, the disciples who had respected Zhang Yanliang now looked at him with disdain.

Who would have thought, this guy is so hypocritical.

It wasn’t just the disciples from Emperor Immortal Sect; even the students from Lie Tian Academy found the words odd and didn’t know what to say.

After all, Zhu Xiaofei’s words were too damn sensible.

"This Xiaofei." Even Ye Xuan could not help but secretly snicker.

However, what Xiaofei said made sense.

Zhang Yanliang had just wanted to show off in front of Youwei. In the heat of the moment, he agreed, but then pretentiously spoke all those grand words, making himself seem nobler than he was.

In reality, his hands hidden in his sleeves were trembling slightly.

If someone said that Zhang Yanliang was not afraid now, Ye Xuan would give him a slap right there.

Afraid? Not at all?

At this moment, Zhang Yanliang felt his face unable to hold the facade. His previously gathered momentum had now vanished, and he could only look at Ye Xuan with a solemn expression and say in a deep voice, "Come, let’s fight!"

Right now, there was no other option but to fight!

"No worries, prepare your defenses first," Ye Xuan said with a slight smile.

"You!" Zhang Yanliang, hearing this, was immediately furious.

Did Ye Xuan completely look down on him?!

’Very well, since you’re so arrogant, I’ll make sure you lose thoroughly!’ Zhang Yanliang silently declared in his heart.

He did not refuse Ye Xuan’s request.

Since you let me prepare my defenses, then I will. After all, it was beneficial for him.

"Rise!" Zhang Yanliang formed seals with his hands and tapped the void lightly.

Boom————

The next moment, in front of Zhang Yanliang, a three-meter-thick White Jade Divine Wall suddenly hovered.

That was not all; White Jade Dao Patterns surged all around Zhang Yanliang, and as they spun, they formed a three-legged White Jade Divine Tripod, encasing him within.

"That’s the senior brother’s White Jade Divine Shield and White Jade Divine Tripod!" exclaimed a student from Lie Tian Academy.

"Rumored to be top-tier defensive tools capable of withstanding a full-strength blow from a Peak Sealing King, it looks like our senior brother is getting serious!"

"He needs to be serious; after all, that Ye Xuan possesses Sword Dao Master-level Great Success Sword Intent, I can’t believe this guy is actually a Sword Dao Master!"

"Is this guy really a Sword Dao Master? Why doesn’t he even have a sword?" someone else whispered.

But no one paid him any heed.

However, Ye Xuan was indeed not a Sword Dao Master.

The so-called Great Success Sword Intent was just a term people used.

Only Ye Xuan knew in his heart that it was just one of his attack methods.

Of course, although not a Sword Dao Master, the Sword Emperors Ye Xuan had taught were not few, and his own understanding of the Sword Dao was even more fearsome than those Sword Emperors.

Being called a Sword Dao Master might be an honor for others,

but to Ye Xuan, it was almost an insult.

"Are you ready?" Ye Xuan looked at Zhang Yanliang and asked calmly.

"Hold on!" Zhang Yanliang replied, and suddenly, a piece of misty Treasure Armor appeared in his hands.

Then, Zhang Yanliang put the Treasure Armor on himself.

"Damn, how shameless can this Zhang Yanliang get!"

Seeing this scene, the disciples of the Emperor Immortal Sect were speechless.

This Zhang Yanliang was indeed too shameless, even using a Spiritual Artifact!

Not just the Emperor Immortal Sect, even the students from Lie Tian Academy felt somewhat embarrassed.

"This senior brother was so spirited just now, why does he seem so timid now..."

"Too timid indeed..."

Unconsciously, they were starting to think Zhu Xiaofei made sense.

On the high platform of Wansheng Mountain Arena, Hong Yunlie saw this scene and revealed a hint of a smile, "That’s more like it."

"Good, good, it’s good that Zhang Yanliang got smart, knowing the terror of Great Success Sword Intent, employing so many defensive measures."

"This does have the style of the Lie Tian Academy," Zhou Zihuang remarked blandly.

Laughing cheerfully, Hong Yunlie said, "In war, deception is fundamental, especially since this was requested by your son–in–law himself."

Zhou Zihuang snorted coldly and said nothing, but dimly felt that Ye Xuan might have been too arrogant this time.

If Zhang Yanliang really made all the defensive preparations, could Ye Xuan’s one sword truly win?

The situation, which seemed clear at first, had once again become mysterious and unpredictable.

Under the watchful eyes of all, Zhang Yanliang first deployed the White Jade Divine Shield, followed by the White Jade Divine Tripod, and in addition, a treasure armor, inside which he wore another piece of inner armor.

Then, Zhang Yanliang deployed a defensive Daoist Technique from who knows where, his whole being covered in layers of magma-like armor.

Now, Zhang Yanliang was wrapped up tightly all over.

By the time Zhang Yanliang was ready, Ye Xuan was even thinking about taking a nap.

Yawning, Ye Xuan rubbed his eyes and sneered, "I let you prepare your defenses, not because they can withstand my sword, but because to me, all your defenses are just rubble."

"So, no matter how much you prepare, it’s actually of no use."

If he had known Zhang Yanliang would behave like this, he would have been too lazy to let him prepare and would have cut him down directly with one sword.

Finally, after adding several layers of defense, Zhang Yanliang confidently said, "I’m ready, come on!"

"Finally, it’s coming!"

At this, disciples from both sides grew tense.

They had waited so long, and it was finally about to happen!

Yawning again, Ye Xuan focused his mind, his expression becoming serene, his deep eyes carrying a trace of severity.

Boom!

At this moment, the Sword Intent on Ye Xuan intensified.

The terrifying Sword Intent soared into the sky, blasting through the cloud layer above Wansheng Mountain Arena and creating a vast gap.

At this moment, it had already started to get dark.

But after Ye Xuan’s Sword Intent soared, it seemed to have gotten considerably brighter.

All eyes were fixed on Ye Xuan.

The decisive moment of this exchange meeting was finally arriving!

"Ye Xuan’s aura is getting higher and higher!"

Everyone watched Ye Xuan intently and found his aura going into a crazy surge!

"How is this possible?!"

Everyone was shocked.

Apparently, the Great Success Sword Intent Ye Xuan had demonstrated before was not at its peak!?

Boom, boom, boom————

Ye Xuan’s Sword Intent, as if endless, surged wildly!

Beside Ye Xuan, sword qi shadows began to manifest in the void.

Clang, clang, clang, clang————

"Hm?" Tan Qingshan found that the flying sword in his scabbard was trembling, as if being pulled by something and about to fly out!

Clang, clang, clang————

Not just Tan Qingshan, but in the entire Wansheng Mountain Arena, everyone’s swords were trembling at that moment, as if they were about to unsheathe themselves and fly towards Ye Xuan!

"What’s going on?!" Everyone was in a panic.

"Could he possess a Sword Spirit Body?!" Hong Yunlie widened his eyes.

All swords under the heavens were submitting to Ye Xuan at this moment.

Under the gaze of all, Ye Xuan remained calm, raised his right hand, and above his sword finger, a thread-like sword qi lingered.

"Starting Heaven Shaking Gate."

Ye Xuan spoke lightly and slowly.

Boom————

Above the sky dome, it seemed like a primordial gateway was violently blown open, unleashing an astonishing momentum.

An invisible force descended from the heavens, pressing down so hard that no one could lift their heads!

Ye Xuan did not stop his movements; he stared directly at Zhang Yanliang, who was hovering in mid-air, waiting for his strike, and he unleashed his sword finger.
