Chapter 344: Chapter 255: The Battle of the Sword Saint_2

All intelligent beings gathered in visible locations protect themselves with either high walls or strategic places, the reason for defense is self-evident.

Gapar traveled nonstop for a week, and with the help of his mount, which was no less swift than a Griffin, he successfully arrived at the border in the shortest possible time, the horizon now revealing an endless hundred-meter-high wall.

Titan Fortress, standing as a high wall between the civilized world and the Western Continent, if the Demon Clan invades massively, this will be the first line of defense, with each country responsible for the Titan Wall located within its borders.

Numerous barriers exist between the Western Continent and the civilized world, such as rifts, mountains, swamps... coupled with the Titan Fortress, which should be an impenetrable iron wall, yet daily incidents of Demon Clan attacks reveal the truth that this fortress is not solid.

Not every country cares about this place, nor does every country have the extra resources to manage it.

Fortunately, the border guards of the Yanor Kingdom are very responsible, but unfortunately, the Demon Clan exploits gaps from other countries.

"Someone flew over the fortress, quickly report to the general!" Some guards spotted Gapar’s figure and hurried to report to the officer, but by the time they reached the wall, Gapar had already disappeared.

"I swear I really saw someone...."

Gapar now controlled his Flying Horse as they entered the rift, the purple-black miasma was visible upon looking up, these things firmly stayed on the Western Continent, without leaking even the slightest bit into the rift.

This was the place where he had agreed to the final battle.

Originally, he wanted to make some preparations above, but the guards of the Titan Fortress had cleared the perimeter trees thoroughly to prevent Demon Clan invasion, eradicating these plants that could barely grow in such barren terrain.

Gapar did not want this battle to be interfered with too many external factors, whether he won or lost.

Once he entered the rift, he sensed a long-absent familiar aura, his expression unchanged as he steered the Flying Horse to the source of the aura.

There, a tall, slender figure stood with its back to him, the long robes gently swayed in the wind, and silver-black hair cascaded like a waterfall.

"Senior brother, you finally arrived."

A young voice came from the figure, he turned to face Gapar, revealing a handsome, almost demonic young face, with a long and short sword at his waist drawn by invisible forces, "swish," and floated beside his hand.

"I’ve waited for you a long time, if you hadn’t come soon, I would have destroyed that fortress."

Ominous black mist floated around him, within the mist distorted human faces appeared continuously, each known to Gapar.

Outside the black mist existed the starlight of the universe, flickering as if calling something out of this world.

Mystical and evil auras merged together on his body.

"Conrad."

Gapar uttered the other’s name, as if speaking about a stranger, and drew his Linked Star Sword.

"Oh, a fine weapon, senior brother, your collection has increased." Conrad blinked and laughed, "How about a bet, if you lose, give me half of your collection——"

Gapar’s azure sword Qi, empowered by the Magic attribute of the Linked Star Sword, slashed towards Conrad, who dodged at an angle, squinted his eyes and said, "Such an intense greeting from the start, senior brother, you haven’t changed a bit."

Gapar’s lion-like eyes locked onto Conrad, his hair and beard flared.

With one step, his figure instantly appeared before the enemy, the fluttering robes revealed black armor that amplified his strength.

"Bang——"

The crisp sound of steel collision echoed in the rift, Conrad blocked the attack with a short sword.

Their postures remained unchanged, after a second, two gusts of wind burst from opposite directions, the surging sword Qi sliced out countless cracks in the mountain walls, and the flying dust even soared skyward.

"General, something’s happening over there!" The fortress guards noticed the anomaly in the valley and hurried to report, "Should we send someone to check it out?"

"No, absolutely not!" The general’s burly face was now filled with caution, clutching his head and shouting, "It must be some unknown strong people having a duel again, immediately order everyone to stay away, just pretend we didn’t see it!"

Every few months, wild strong people randomly refresh nearby and fight fiercely, driving him to the brink of collapse, do strong people all like fighting in such deserted places?

While the general issued orders, Gapar and Conrad had already exchanged countless rounds, and Conrad even had the mood to chat incessantly.

"Not even a greeting, going straight to war, so ruthless senior brother, after all these years, I thought of seeing you, aren’t you curious about what I want to do?"

The response was a flying kick from the Sword Saint.

"Why use feet too? Has your swordsmanship deteriorated?" He shrugged, quickly retreated while repelling the chasing Gapar with black sword light.

Gapar halted, still choosing silence, perhaps this meant he had nothing to say to the opponent.

"After so many years without seeing each other, since then I don’t think I’ve spoken to you, you don’t even know why I had to do that, do you think I infiltrated deliberately?"

Conrad caressed the sword blade "Actually, I only learned of my lineage that day, turns out I’m the offspring of the Demon King and Evil God, haha, sounds impressive, right? But I don’t even know the names of that Demon King and Evil God, their blood running through me has thinned to almost invisible, I’m mostly human, always thought I was just human."

"On that day, I suddenly heard a revelation from beyond, offering enough blood could unleash my potential... such good fortune, how could I refuse."

"Do you think I hesitated a long time before killing senior brothers? No, no, the moment I heard the voice I pushed the junior brother off the cliff, I never regretted."

"By the way, you don’t know why I sought you, right? Actually, there’s a grand plan..."

A Sword Qi sliced through, the mountain wall behind Conrad fractured, but he remained unscathed.

"You talk too much."

Gapar spoke his first sentence, suddenly increasing in speed, disappearing before Conrad.

"Eh?"

For the first time, Conrad revealed a surprised expression, turning with his blade to face the impending slashing attack, but when Gapar’s slashing truly arrived——

His sword was knocked away!

What was going on, why did the opponent’s strength suddenly surge so dramatically? Earlier, they were evenly matched, even weaker than me...

Wait, this old man was hiding his capability!

While Conrad was still astonished, the Sword Saint had already slashed, splitting him from shoulder to thigh in one stroke!

The sound of falling echoed, but Gapar did not withdraw his sword, instead rapidly creating distance.

"Snicker.... You’re still so cautious, you didn’t fall for it."

Black mist surged from Conrad’s body, wriggling to form a new shape, he spread his hands and said:

"This is the power bestowed by god, no swordsmanship has effect on me anymore, previous Sword Saints would despair upon seeing me like this."

He raised the corner of his mouth "Alright, let’s talk about why I sought you, I haven’t spoken with anyone for a long time, don’t mind my loquaciousness."

He stared at Gapar’s expression, hoping to see desired emotions from his senior brother’s face, like panic, fear, anger.

From earlier, he’d been chattering non-stop, aiming to evoke the opponent’s negative emotions, with negative emotions, then his power would...

Just then, Gapar suddenly sheathed the Linked Star Sword.

"What, giving up resistance?" Conrad mocked.

No, the Sword Saint did not give up the fight, just switched methods.

Gapar picked up the giant club Magic Wand on the ground, patting it while saying:

"Let’s start the second round."
