CHAPTER 226: CHAPTER 175: SEVERELY WOUNDING THE SONG FAMILY’S ANCESTOR

The Song family’s Patriarch knew very well that the opponent before him, disguised as a Golden Core Cultivator, was much faster than himself, making escape absolutely impossible.

Rather than sitting idly awaiting death, it would be better to put up a fight; he might still find a glimmer of hope for survival.

He gritted his teeth, his face etched with determination.

Suddenly, a seemingly ordinary wooden sword appeared in his hand with a quick flick of his palm.

Without hesitation, he poured all his Spiritual Power into the wooden sword, holding nothing back.

"Slash!"

The Song family’s Patriarch shouted loudly, swinging his arm fiercely.

In an instant, the wooden sword, once plain and unremarkable, burst forth with dazzling azure light, so resplendent that it was almost unbearable to gaze upon.

Mysterious runes flickered intermittently around the sword’s body, as if containing endless secrets.

Amidst the piercing, shrill wails, the wooden sword surged towards Xu Ping like a blue Flood Dragon, with a power akin to overturning seas and mountains.

Where the wooden sword passed, space seemed burdened beyond endurance, leaving fine cracks in its wake, accompanied by a sizzling sound, as if space itself was wailing in agony.

"Magical Treasure!"

Xu Ping’s expression grew exceptionally grave. Faced with the incoming, formidable blow, he dared not be careless or slack.

He similarly flicked his palm, and the Purple Sun Sword instantly appeared in his hand. At the same time, the aura around him started to rise rapidly, momentum continuously increasing.

"Slash!"

Holding the sword in one hand, Xu Ping softly uttered a word, then swung the sword fiercely.

"Boom!"

With a thunderous roar, a sword light carrying a fleeting white rainbow emerged, like a sky-opening blade, as if intending to rend the void completely.

This sword light, imbued with endless sharpness, cleaved directly toward the wooden sword Magical Treasure.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the sword light clashed intensely with the wooden sword Magical Treasure, erupting in deafening explosions.

Powerful Spiritual Power fluctuations spread furiously in all directions from the point of collision, swiftly raising a storm of Spiritual Power.

The surrounding rocks and trees turned to powder under the impact of this terrifying force, leaving the once-peaceful place in utter disarray amidst the flying sand and rocks.

"What!"

"Sword Qi Thunder Sound? Sword Light Like a Rainbow?" The Song family’s Patriarch turned pale in shock, a trace of terror flashing across his face.

"No, it’s not!"

But in the next moment, he reacted quickly, his eyes fixated intently on Xu Ping.

With his years of experience and discernment, he immediately recognized that the opponent had only just touched the edges of the Sword Light Like a Rainbow realm.

Yet there was still a substantial gap to completely understanding this profound realm.

Moreover, judging by the aura emanating from the opponent, Xu Ping was significantly stronger than an ordinary Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivator, yet still distinctly inferior compared to Fake Pill cultivators.

Could it be that the one pursuing him was a Foundation Establishment Sword Cultivator with extraordinary talent?

"No matter who you are, you must die!"

The Song family’s Patriarch’s eyes flashed with ruthlessness and determination, and he relentlessly increased the output of Spiritual Power.

In an instant, the azure light on the wooden sword grew even more intense, its offensive akin to a relentless storm, continuously attacking Xu Ping.

In his view, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator with such outstanding Sword Cultivator talent must be killed early, to prevent endless troubles in the future.

Xu Ping instantly felt pressure bearing down like a mountain, and though the Purple Sun Sword in his hand was of exceptional quality, it was hard to entirely channel his surging Sword Intent and overwhelming strength at this moment.

In the intense clash with the Song family’s Patriarch’s Magical Treasure Wooden Sword, Xu Ping gradually found himself overwhelmed, slowly falling into a disadvantage.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, another earth-shattering roar erupted.

Xu Ping’s face became extremely grave, and he unleashed all his Mana without reservation, causing the Purple Sun Sword to erupt with incredibly terrifying sword light.

His figure flickered, slashing thirteen consecutive strikes, each infused with boundless power and Sword Intent, managing to barely force the Song family’s Patriarch’s Magical Treasure Wooden Sword to retreat.

"Alas, even wielding the Purple Sun Sword, I ultimately cannot match a Fake Pill cultivator equipped with a Magical Treasure!"

Observing the flickering, dim Purple Sun Sword, emitting a sorrowful hum, Xu Ping sighed helplessly in his heart.

He understood that if he had an Artifact Embryo at hand at this moment.

Relying on his strength and swordsmanship, he was confident he could fight evenly with the opponent and wouldn’t have been driven into such a passive situation so quickly.

However, while Xu Ping felt considerable disappointment over the strength he portrayed, his performance nevertheless astonished the Song family’s Patriarch.

Never before had the Song family’s Patriarch imagined that a cultivator, whose aura was merely at the Foundation Establishment Perfection realm, could battle him to this extent.

If this person were to grow steadily, to what terrifying heights will he ascend in the future?

Golden Core Realm? Nascent Soul Realm?

Truly unimaginable!

In response, the Song family’s Patriarch’s expression became extremely cold, a boundless killing intent almost drowning him entirely.

He continuously sent the Mana he accumulated through years of cultivation into the Magical Treasure Wooden Sword.

No matter how talented the opponent may be, today, this place will be his burial ground!

"Die!"

Holding the Magical Treasure Wooden Sword, the Song family’s Patriarch used all his strength to slash fiercely!

"Chiii!"

An azure sword light, extending over a hundred feet, instantly filled the skies and the earth. This sword light was unparalleled in its sharpness, seeming as though it wished to annihilate everything in existence.

"So powerful!"
