Chapter 726 - 725 Life Palace Defeats Saint Realm

Chapter 726: Chapter 725 Life Palace Defeats Saint Realm

"If that’s the case, let us begin."

Ye Xuan’s expression was calm, and he smiled slightly.

"Please." Pei Yanchao made a welcoming gesture to Ye Xuan.

Subsequently, Ye Xuan disappeared into the blizzard.

"Has it started..." Song Qilin’s expression was extremely solemn.

Merely a Pei Yanchao, who guarded the first challenge, could easily defeat him, while tonight, Ye Xuan was going to take on nine challenges, all defended by the Sword Tomb’s masters of the Saint Realm.

Such an array would unquestionably be fatal if he attempted it.

However, the person undertaking the challenge this time was not him, but Young Master Ye.

......

"Who would have thought that someone from the Life Palace Realm would come to take on the nine challenges?"

A voice tinged with mockery arose as a man clad in blue robes approached through the snowstorm.

The scene was still amidst the blizzard, but Zhou Youwei and the others had already disappeared.

"Life Palace Realm vs Life Palace Realm, I wonder what Elder Chu is thinking..."

Another voice sounded, followed by a tall woman in a goose-yellow long dress, carrying a sword, her sword-like eyebrows fierce.

Then, seven more individuals appeared one after another.

These people were the Great Cultivators of the Saint Realm guarding the nine challenges.

They had only received the orders conveyed by Pei Yanchao, from Chu Jiangqiu, with no knowledge that Ye Xuan possessed the supreme sword skills of the Sword Tomb.

"Who will suppress him?" the tall woman in the goose-yellow dress asked loudly.

"Fellow senior brothers and sisters, let me do it," the first-arrived man in the blue robes said with a slight smile.

"Agreed," the other eight nodded.

The man in blue robes looked towards Ye Xuan, who stood with his hands in his pockets amid the snowstorm, and smiled lightly, "Shall we begin?"

Although they didn’t take a cultivator from the Life Palace Realm very seriously, as Disciples of the Sword Tomb, their conduct represented the Sword Tomb, not themselves.

No matter what, Ye Xuan was the challenger, and the proper decorum was still necessary.

Just to avoid others saying that the Sword Tomb bullied others.

Although the Sword Tomb did not really care about what outsiders said.

"You may."

Ye Xuan remained calm and nodded slightly.

Upon Ye Xuan’s utterance, the nine either maintained their composed demeanor, displayed a slight trace of scorn, or remained indifferent, not considering him significant.

In this world, cultivators were as numerous as hairs on an ox.

But cultivators were ranked differently.

The bottom Five Realms were for Foundation Establishment, the middle Nine Realms were considered true cultivators, and Great Cultivators had to step into the Saint Realm!

After reaching the peak of the Heavenly Venerable, when the opportunity arises, one could undergo Tribulation to enter the Saint Realm.

There has always been a saying since ancient times.

"Transcending to Saint makes one a True Person."

It means that upon entering the Saint Realm, one is considered to have transcended and become a real person!

In the eyes of such beings, Body Refinement to Inscriptions are just the Five Realms of Foundation Establishment, while Earth Element to Heavenly Venerable are the middle Nine Realms, regarded as true cultivators.

Among the ten present, excluding Ye Xuan, the other nine were all True Persons of the Saint Realm.

In their eyes, Ye Xuan was merely an ant from the Fourth Realm within the middle Nine Realms.

While proper decorum was indeed necessary, it did not mean that a True Person of the Saint Realm would truly take notice of an ant.

This was instinct.

Only those who exist in this realm can understand these feelings.

"Let’s start." The blue-robed man floated to the ground, and around him seemed to exist an invisible Domain Realm which completely prevented the surrounding snow from touching him.

As the snow neared the blue-robed man, it automatically slid to the sides.

The blue-robed man, with one hand behind his back and one hand outstretched, fingers spread, palm facing down,

suddenly attracted the snow below which gathered into a Snow Sword.

In the blink of an eye, five Snow Swords had formed.

The blue-robed man’s index finger moved slightly, and the corresponding Snow Sword immediately pierced through the air toward Ye Xuan.

Immediately following, the man in the blue shirt slightly moved his middle finger, and the corresponding Snow Sword shot out as well.

Following the same pattern.

The remaining three Snow Swords shot out in succession.

Fired one after another, they aligned in a straight line, targeting Ye Xuan.

Neither fast nor slow, the speed was just right to allow a Cultivator of the Life Palace Realm to perceive their trajectory.

It seemed that the man in the blue shirt had done it intentionally.

"Junior Brother Nie’s Sword Manipulation Technique has improved a lot..."

Seeing that scene, the tall woman in a goose-yellow dress showed a tinge of surprise in her eyes.

Within the Sword Tomb, there were many sword techniques, each disciple had their own path to pursue.

For instance, this Nie surnamed man in blue primarily focused on the Sword Manipulation Technique, a renowned skill in sword control.

Once a person reached a certain realm, their sword could be very fast.

But to make their sword slow down to just the right pace, maintaining this balance, was more challenging.

If it were his Lifebound Sword, it might be a different matter.

These five swords now, however, were merely formed by the condensing of wind and snow.

As easy as moving his own arm.

Very strong.

It’s a pity, though, that the man in the blue shirt should not have treated Ye Xuan as an ordinary Life Palace Realm Cultivator.

The speed of the nine True Persons of the Saint Realm present had seemed immensely slow to Ye Xuan, and yet this man intentionally suppressed his strength, as if only exerting the power of the Life Palace Realm.

Ye Xuan found it rather interesting.

Who would have thought that he, the Undying Night Emperor, would also experience someone giving him an easy time?

Seeing this, Ye Xuan felt he should also show his hand.

He reached out his right hand from his pocket, aiming at the five incoming Snow Swords.

In an instant, the five Snow Swords halted midair.

"Hmm?"

Seeing this, several people on the scene were quite astonished.

Although Junior Brother Nie had used only the strength of the Life Palace Realm, he was still a Great Cultivator of the Saint Realm, employing his primarily mastered Sword Manipulation Technique, which under its seemingly peaceful surface, contained a tremendous force capable of flipping seas and rivers. Yet it was effortlessly blocked by this man?

Not to mention the others, even the man in the blue shirt himself was stunned for a moment.

He clearly felt a terrifying resistance that could even shatter his condensed Snow Swords!

"This person, is not just a mere Life Palace Realm..." the man in the blue shirt muttered to himself as he came to a realization.

This indeed made him take things a lot more seriously.

At the very least, this young man was not just poking around; he definitely possessed considerable skills.

Bang!

The next moment, something even more shocking occurred to the man in the blue shirt.

All five Snow Swords shattered completely.

Immediately with the swiftness of lightning, they re-condensed into new Snow Swords, with their tips pointing at him, arriving in an instant.

"This is impossible!"

A look of shock emerged in the man in blue’s eyes.

The five Snow Swords contained his mana, but in that instant, it was erased completely, and in such a short time, the swords were re-formed and used against him!

The other party definitely could not be of the Life Palace Realm, he must have at least stepped into the Saint Realm!

As surprise overtook him, the man in blue was not idle, he flipped his right hand and flicked his fingers lightly.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

The surrounding wind and snow instantly transformed into numerous sharp swords, striking towards the Snow Sword.

Pu, pu, pu——

However, these sharp swords, mixed with his mana, were like made of paper, completely swept away.

The sword stopped at the center of his brow.

At the handle, someone held it, looking at him calmly.

Who could it be, if not Ye Xuan?
